Support Lorenzo on Patreon.com Guest speaker: Terence McKenna Art Bell PROGRAM NOTES: Today's podcast features an interview that Terence McKenna did on the Art Bell radio program on March 19, 1998. This conversation begins with an interesting discussion of how Terence was living off the grid at the time, but it then proceeds to cover such topics as: Sandoz acid, technology, culture, artificial intelligence, aliens, UFOs, psychedelics, DMT, War on Drugs, television, coffee, politics. And this is only Part 1 of this interview. [NOTE: The following quotations are by Terence McKenna.] "If you could build a DMT virtual reality, they would come!" "I once heard politics in America described as a civil war in a leper colony."
