    Dropping Acid on Bicycle Day (4/20 Special Episode w/ Shane Mauss)
    Apr 17 2024
    On April 19, 1943 Swiss chemist Dr. Albert Hoffman took the world's first LSD trip, which included a rather harrowing bicycle ride home from his lab that day. For the next sixty years, Hoffman would be fascinated by his famous "problem child," a powerful molecule that changed the course of history. Comedian Shane Mauss ("A Better Trip") tells us the story of Bicycle Day, which is now celebrated around the world.

    Carl Sagan and His Best Bud Get Blazed and Save the Universe
    Apr 3 2024
    As we gaze upon the Cosmos, let's remember Carl Sagan, the famed astronomer who attributed his most powerful epiphanies to the creative influence of cannabis. And his best bud Dr. Lester Grinspoon, who set out to make the definitive scientific case against weed and ended up becoming one of the plant's greatest champions. Their friendship truly changed the course of weed history, with some incredible stories along the way.

    This Total Solar Eclipse Is Gonna Be Trippy AF
    Mar 20 2024
    What's the most psychedelic experience you can have on Earth without ingesting so much as a microdose? A solar eclipse, no question—but you've got to be in the path of totality. Our guest on this episode, astronomer Nour Skaf, from the Black Rock Observatory, explains what exactly happens during an eclipse, and why it's such a profoundly trippy phenomenon. Nour will be presenting a talk at the upcoming Texas Eclipse Festival outside Austin, Texas on April 5th-9th. Bean will be there too, reporting for DoubleBlind magazine. If you have the time and resources, please don't miss a chance to see an eclipse. It is truly life-changing. PATH OF TOTALITY Check out this map to track the path of totality, and find the closest location for you to experience the eclipse.
