Thanks for tuning in everybody. This is psychedelics today. It is Joe and co-host is Kyle.

Today on the show we have Brett Green of Symposia and we get into some really interesting subjects.

This is a different kind of event for me to discuss with Brett. And I hope you guys all find it interesting.

It seems to really flesh out the whole psychedelic scene and give us a lot more perspectives into what might be going on.

I really appreciate Brett's time and willingness to talk to us and can't wait to talk to him again.

Thanks for listening, everybody. Enjoy.

Brett Green, welcome to the show. Thanks for joining us.

Thank you. Thanks for having me.

My pleasure. Our pleasure.

Can you tell us a little bit about your background and maybe some things that happen that led you towards what you're

doing today with symposia? It's symposia. Because our first event was the symposium. I think

people still refer to us as the symposium.

My background is actually as a really a musician.

Let's see, when I was 13, I started playing guitar.

I was a poet.

I started writing and performing music and playing it in the halls of my school.

And around that same time, I started reading a lot about psychedelics.

I don't know exactly what got me interested,

but it could have been a friend of mine, a very dear friend of

mine and mentor who is now a professor at MIT, and he'll remain nameless for this call.

You know, I'd befriended him when I was nine or ten, my aunt was one of his roommates.

He was actually a film person, and he had all these film posters around his wall.
