The Entheogenic Evolution

My guest this week is James Lanthier, CEO of Mindset Pharma of Toronto, Canada, a company that is seeking to develop novel psychedelic analogues to existing psychedelics such as psilocybin, DMT, and 5-MeO-DMT for more targeted delivery, efficacy, and therapeutic potential for use in the developing psychedelic healthcare field. You can find them online at www.mindsetpharma.com 

Here's the conversation Rak Razam and I had a few months ago to prep his entry for the multi-author anthology of Facilitating 5-MeO-DMT. I've been holding onto this for a while now and it's a pleasure to bring it to you here on the podcast. Of course, the entire book is available in both paperback and ebook. 

My guest this week is Christi Myers from the Flow Integrative Ketamine clinic in Encinitas, California. We talk all things therapeutic about Ketmanine. You can find out more about the clinic at www.flowintegrativeketamine.com 

My guest this week is Griffen Thorne of Harris Bracken Law Firm, specializing in religious freedom and entheogens. We discuss the legal landscape around entheogens and religious rights and other related issues. 

This week I'm joined by Patrick, one of the contributors to the "Facilitating 5-MeO-DMT" anthology book. Patrick shares a bit more of his background and entry into facilitating 5-MeO along with more details about his approach and work with "toadsters" - enjoy! 

I've got a 5-way conversation for you this week with the team from the upcoming "Bridging Heaven" retreat - Rak Razam, Quilley Powers, Eugene Alliende, and Joel Brierre. The aim of the retreat is to combine low doses of 5-MeO-DMT with meditation and the practice and study of nondual yoga philosophy. You can learn more at www.bridgingheaven.com, and of course, right here with this lengthy and informative conversation. 

The other week "Hal Lucious Nation" and I recorded this conversation for inclusion in my new book, "Facilitating 5-MeO-DMT: An Anthology of Approaches to Serving The God Molecule." The transcription of the conversation comes as an appendix in the book, and the first chapter in the book after my Editor's Introduction is a more direct account of how the Temple of Awakening Divinity, "TOAD," operates. Here, Hal shares how he was first introduced to 5-MeO-DMT, how he got started with TOAD in late 2007, and how he and I established our personal relationship and dynamic of 5-MeO enthusiasts from different sides of being public versus private. Intimate, illuminating, and fascinating, this conversation is sure to keep your attention. 

This week I'm joined by Timothy Ko, CEO of Entheon Biomedical, a Vancouver-based company looking to develop addiction treatment with DMT. Timothy shares his own personal story of addiction in his family, barriers to dealing with addiction in society as well as in Asian cultures where shame and family honor can get in the way, his motives for creating addiction treatments, and how Entheon is developing research studies to work with DMT.

My guest is Rob Bateman from Adeptus Psychonautica here for a lengthy and fun conversation covering a wide range of topics from issues in psychedelic culture, ritual and ceremony, DMT, 5-MeO-DMT, podcasting, and the creation of Adeptus Psychonautica on Youtube. 

This week we welcome back Nyx Ingen to talk more about her practice of working with 5-MeO-DMT along with MDMA and DMT and are joined in our conversation by Helgi, who has not only been Nyx's housemate, but a client, as well. We try and cover numerous aspects of facilitation from the facilitator's, client's and housemate's perspectives, sharing notes, experiences, and points of view. Nyx is also looking for support for her upcoming surgery - if you'd like to support her, visit nek.uno to show your support.
