Friends, next weekend I'm going to be at the Helium Comedy Club in Buffalo, New York,

Hardy Krishna, thank you God. I can't wait to see my buffalo heads. I'll be there

Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Come see me. Friends and welcome come see me.

Friends and welcome to the DTFH.

Today's guest is the author of this awesome book,

Tripped, Norman Oler, and whoa, this book blew my mind.

You know, I thought that I knew the history of LSD roughly

gets synthes up by the

up by the CIA, tested in universities,

and then just sort of flows into default reality and shapes the minds of so many maniacs and philosophers and

artists that there's too many to name but whoa after this conversation with Norman, I realized that I had missed a very dark piece of the

LSD story. Sando's laboratories had a pretty insane skeleton

in their closet, and it looks like Norman Oler

is bringing that skeleton into the light.

You're gonna find out this incredible part of the history of LSD

on today's conversation and also you should definitely check this book out.

It's incredible, tripped, Nazi Germany, the CIA and the dawn of the psychedelic age.

It's everywhere and you should order it. The writing is just amazing and

Norman is so freaking cool. So everybody welcome to the DTFH, Norman Oler.

Norman, thank you so much for coming on the show.

It's a great pleasure actually to be here and have this long time to talk about stuff, I guess.

I'm excited. You have written, like it's as though God contacted you and said

...
