Transform Your Consciousness w/ Jason Silva

If you're familiar with Jason then you know he's an incredibly unique human. And if you're not, then I'll do my best-- but you really just need to check out his work. He's a brilliant and insanely insightful creator whose work sits at the intersection of philosophy, personal development and film much like my own work. You may know him as the host of Nat Geo's "Brain Games," from his short film series "Shots Of Awe" or his latest show "Origins" which is in its debut season. It's really tough to put a label on his work, so instead of trying I'm simply going to echo his words - he calls them "espresso shots of philosophy" and while that's a bit of a mouthful it's also a very accurate characterization.

Today on the podcast,

* We talk about how Jason got his start on Al Gore's cable channel Current TV

* He explains why the "one man band" approach is the best way for him to work and how technology has made that possible for an entire generation of creators

* In the tail end of this episode we get into a bunch of heady, somewhat esoteric stuff that you will absolutely love if you're a fan of Jason's YouTube stuff - everything from transhumanism to psychedelics to metaphysics

Enjoy!
