With roughly 97% of the population eating meat, it’s mind-blowing that 85% of the American meat supply chain is in the hands of four corporations, two of which are foreign. What’s also disturbing is the deliberate manipulation of beef prices, the rise in food intellectual property (IP) in the form of GMO food solutions and fake meat products grown in a lab, and the regulatory constraints placed on small cattle ranches trying to make our food supply chain more robust and secure. My guest today, AJ Richards, is leading the charge when it comes to a new way to deliver beef to the American consumer directly from the ranches themselves in order to cut out the excess cost, regulation, manipulation, and build out a stronger, more diverse supply of food. Today, we talk about the crumbling food supply chain, our import to export dilemma, overcoming the monopolies of food producers, why homesteading in America is once again growing, and so much more. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS: City slicker turned rancher Losing farms is national security issue Beef supply chain is controlled by 4 major companies Creating an Uber or AirBnb for meat Inspiring the next generation of ranchers Keeping the family engaged and interested Meat distribution should be regional, rather than national Let the local economy dictate the price The dangers of opposing the establishment Battle Planners are back in stock.

It’s clear by now the stigma that once surrounded psychedelics has lost some of its power. With the use of psychedelics like Psilocybin, Ayahuasca, and even LSD becoming much more mainstream through personalities like Joe Rogan and all we hear about “plant-medicine,” from some of the most influential people today, it’s time we all start taking a closer look at the ins and outs, pros and cons, and features and setbacks of the world of psychedelics. Today I am joined by Matt Zemon, a Master in Medical Science in both psychology and neuroscience, and author of his latest book, Psychedelics for Everyone. I am naturally a bit of a skeptic so I took that approach on a topic I admittedly don’t know a whole lot about. We discuss why the stigma around psychedelics and how did that come to be, the use of psychedelics to treat shame, blame, and guilt and other symptoms of “treatment resistant PTSD,” how psychedelics have been used to help people overcome crippling alcohol and drug addiction, the spiritual journey one may discover on his exploration into these medicines, side effects to consider, and how many men are using psychedelics to expand their consciousness.   SHOW HIGHLIGHTS:   Psychedelics is a technology The psychedelic journey is often a top 5 experience Is there a benefit to shame, blame, and guilt Defining PTSD Psychedelics are not for everyone There’s more to it than just “trust the science” What is a psychedelic? Psychedelics should not be seen as a “cure” Using psychedelics to get off other drugs Side effects of psychedelics   Battle Planners are back in stock.
