This extremely short, live series--it was only ten minutes long and was on the air for five weeks--examined the effects of hypnosis, the power of suggestion, the immunity to pain, the ability to recall incidents that the conscious mind does not remember, and other mental feats. It starred professional hypnotist Dr. Franz Polgar, who possessed doctorates in psychology and economics.

But could you find out the truth about the economy if you managed to
hypnotize an economist?

I find most economnists must be hypnotists as I go to sleep nearly
as soon as they start economizing.
