Did magic mushrooms spark the leap from primitive primates to modern humans? In this episode of Conspiracy Files, we dive into the controversial Stoned Ape Theory—a radical idea suggesting that psychedelics may have supercharged our ancestors' brains and launched the birth of consciousness, language, and even religion. Was our evolution guided by nature… or altered by mind-expanding substances? Join us as we explore the evidence, the critics, and the mind-bending implications of this wild theory.
