Support Lorenzo on Patreon.com Guest speaker: Graham Hancock Graham Hancock speaking at the 2016 Glastonbury Festival PROGRAM NOTES: Date this lecture was recorded: June 2016 [NOTE: All quotations are by Graham Hancock.] "Our governments are so determined to impose these insane [War on Drugs] policies upon us that the whole credit worthiness of government in every way becomes suspect, if it was not suspect already." "I discovered that the most important aspect of ourselves is not our body. That's one of the lessons that ayahuasca teaches, that it's not our bodies that are important. It's our consciousness." "I have never regarded reality the same, since I began to work with ayahuasca." "Only a truly, psychopathically insane global human society would allow warfare to occur at all. The fact that war can snare us. The fact that we can be persuaded to go and kill other people in other lands should not be regarded as normal. This is deeply abnormal. It's the sign of a society that's gone terribly wrong." "Wherever I travel in the world I find that people are exactly the same. The same hopes, the same fears, the same dreams, the same capacity to love, we are, none of us, any different."

Support Lorenzo on Patreon.com Guest speaker: David Nutt Dr. David Nutt speaking at the 2016 Glastonbury Festival PROGRAM NOTES: Date this lecture was recorded: June 2016 [NOTE: All quotations are by David Nutt "The drinks industry is keen to keep its monopoly over drugs. And it fought battles over the last 150 years to make sure that no other drug got into the market. When acceptable versions of drugs like opium and cannabis and cocaine became available to the public, systematically, the drinks industry created opposition to them, created fear about them, and eventually got them banned." "Most of the justification for keeping drugs illegal is because, supposedly, they are harmful. But as you know, and hopefully some of you have read some of my work over the years, know that most of the illegal drugs are less harmful than alcohol." "We know that probably the majority of politicians know that they are lying about drugs."

"As for myself, I'm on record as saying that LSD is the greatest discovery that man ever made." "I have a lot of friends who are always telling me about all kinds of nutrients.
