Project Brazen and PRX released their new podcast, “The Sound: Mystery of Havana Syndrome Podcast” with international journalist, Nicky Woolf, on Jan. 23. The eight part investigative narrative podcast will peek behind the curtain, and uncover the unsettling global medical mystery affecting American diplomats and spies. “The Sound” will transport listeners to Havana, Cuba in December 2016, when a U.S. official went to the embassy medical center with a debilitating illness, that would later impact dozens of U.S. and Canadian diplomats. Audiences will listen as Woolf discovers various theories and learn how U.S. agencies neglected to try to uncover the cause of the modern medical mystery. The podcast is a collaboration between Woolf, Project Brazen and PRX.
