End of the Road Podcast (Immanence = Transcendence)

Jimmy Tebeau is a professional musician performing in the nationally touring, festival promoting Grateful Dead Experience:  The Schwag.  Jimmy also had a four year stint as the bassist for the JGB (Jerry Garcia Band).  Recently, he started hosting a two hour talk show on KKID 92.9 in Rolla, Missouri.  In this free flowing and unedited episode of the live talk show we discuss:  Joseph Campbell and his relationship with the Grateful Dead tribal culture, Jimmy's own experiences with group consciousness and/or non-local consciousness at Grateful Dead and his own performances, Schwagstock (the upcoming Missouri Music Festival), Rainbow Gatherings, Jimmy's interesting tour with the Jerry Garcia Band in Hawaii, poly-rhythms and altered consciousness in drum circles, Timothy Leary, FDA trials for Psilocybin and MDMA and much more.  Jimmy also performs live his version of Dylan's "Desolation Row" and we hear a recorded live performance of the Schwag's Help on the Way/Slipknot at the St. Louis Ball Park Village.  Jimmy then tells bad lawyer jokes and I counter with worse ones, being more familiar with the subject.  We are also joined by Andrew Sheeley of the Phelps County Focus to discuss his recent story of the geologic core sample archive in Rolla, Missouri.  Jimmy and Andrew also discuss the trials and tribulations of the late local personality Chief Wanna Doobie.  Later, Electronica/Dubstep artist "The Mowhawk" joins the fray to describe his upcoming time/spatial manifestations.  Guiseppe also thrills the gathering with his live banjo performance.  And of course,  driving force behind KKID, Steve Wheeler, holds space for the entire show. The video of the entire performance will be posted here later this week: Video link of show Much much more info about the history and upcoming time/spatial manifestations of the Schwag can be found here: Schwag Portal More information about Andrew Sheeley can be found here:  Sheeley Portal

Omar is a retired military veteran and leads a multidisciplinary team of professionals that provide legal sacred medicine experiences in Mexico focusing on the shamanic and therapeutic use of mushrooms, peyote, changa, and temazcal ceremonies.  "Integration Retreats," provides clients with all inclusive retreats that include medicine ceremonies, on-site professional therapy-based integration, skilled facilitators, thermal spa, bilingual host/guide, airport pick up and drop off, meals and ongoing integration support.   Omar's journey began as a first-generation immigrant to the US from Panama where he was steeped at an early age in Afro-Caribbean and and Afro-Latino spiritual practices by his grandfather, founder of two Central American esoteric temples.  Omar is a graduate of William Paterson University with a degree in biology and a graduate of the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology.  He began his recovery from PTSD in the 1990s after 30 days of fasting, isolation, and intensive sacred mushroom work under shamanic guidance.  Now retired with over 25 years of sacred mushroom experience, Omar is a permanent resident of Mexico who works to help preserve shamanic culture while connecting other to safe, guided and transformational ceremonies.    More information about Omar and Integrations Retreats can be found at:  https://www.integrationsretreats.com https://www.facebook.com/pg/integrationsretreats/about/?ref=page_internal (The views expressed by the guests are expressly their own and do not represent the advice or practices of the host.  No legal advice is intended by this podcast.  And certainly not medical, psychological, or shamanic--indeed, the host does not even play any of these on TV.   In fact, the host does not own a TV come to think of it.)

Semina is a multidimensional artist and practitioner of many skills to navigate myriad realities including but not limited to:  lucid dreaming, astral travel, entheogens, meditation, somatic meditation, hypnagogic states, grounding, balance, third eye visions, Kundalini energy, brain wave entrainment, binaural beats, precognition, interaction with entities, ORMUS, and much much more.  She hosts an intriguing YouTube channel, and an ETSY store.  I suspect we will see much more in the future from her as she opens her heart to assist those along the journey.  More information about her work can be found at:   https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRn9WhUMakCq2h2rZ8vTBFw https://www.etsy.com/people/saminaisawesome P.S.  Toward the very end of the podcast, we discuss a ceremony which had not yet occurred at the time of this recording.  The ceremony did not turn out as expected (which is of course the whole point..lol) but the dream described in the podcast turned out to be remarkably prescient in surprising ways.

Though Ayahuasca is used as a traditional spiritual medicine in ceremonies among the indigenous peoples of the Amazon basin, it is starting to make inroads into the heartlands of America.  I have yet to encounter a more evocative spokesperson for this medicine than Lara. Lara embodies the restorative potential that Ayahuasca creates in healing past traumas and in harmonizing life with its spiritual undercurrents.  Lara works with Jyaneshwari Onaya, a Maestra of Ayahuasca who has studied and lived in the Amazon near Iquitos, Peru with her Maestro, Enrique Fasando Lopez of the Incan Kena Village for many years.  Using this training, Jyaneshwari and other healers have been bringing this medicine across the United States to people who would not normally be able to afford travel for this Sacred Medicine Ceremony.  If you like what you hear, and are interested in attending one of their ceremonies, you can contact them at:  rainbowrootstribe108@gmail.com .  Lara can be reached at her facebook page https://www.facebook.com/Laralindsey09, or at the following email address:  nokoan@hotmail.com .  Jyaneshwari can be reached at:   https://www.facebook.com/ljyaneshwarionaya.108

Jeremy plays professional basketball in the European League.  But to my mind, his superpower is not his slashing drive to the basket or pull-up jumper, but his relentless heart-based gratitude practice which lights up the room (not to mention the court).  Jeremy is the host of the "Always Loading" podcast, is on Youtube and Facebook under his name and Instagram @always_loading.  Get in early--I'm sure you will agree that Jeremy's star has only begun to rise.  

Celeste is more things than I will be able to describe.  She is an oracle, fortune teller, witch, and "affirmation empress"--indeed, affirmations spring from her like rapidly chanted poetic mantras chaneled from some complex divine source.  But there is more!  Her nom de plume is Janette Odell, and under that moniker, she and her husband Jerry have penned several erotic novels describing the mysterious Yoni egg and her adventures and practices in that domain.  These books, entitled "Yoni Chronicles Vol. I and II" are available on Amazon or your favorite bookseller.  As you might expect, much more information about Celeste is found at:  https://readingsbyceleste.com/ on instagram at @readings_by_celeste or on facebook at https://www.facebook.com/ReadingsbyCelestetheOracle/

Donalee brings conscious leadership, spirituality and mastery to individuals and organizations through her coaching, Mastering M.E. and Leadership Mastery Programs.  In her words, "mastery," refers to one's ability to apply and practice a new skill or task with repetition and attention to detail so it becomes programmed into an operating system.  Once this is achieved the subconscious will automatically act upon our desired intent.  Moreover, Donalee believes that ultimate mastery is the recognition and partnership of the infinite power that lives, moves, and has its being within each of us.
