No heartfelt resolutions here—just raw reflections on why 2024 sucked, what 2025 might bring, and how sugar is basically his drug of choice now. Oh, and there’s a surprise guest: fitness trainer Doug Bopst, called mid-recording to unpack why Dave’s obsessed with Chick-fil-A and why New Year’s resolutions are mostly BS. But first, the real deal: Hamilton Morris, the chemist and documentarian behind Hamilton’s Pharmacopoeia, drops in to talk about everything from the chemistry of salvia to the ethics of harm reduction. It’s science, chaos, and comedy rolled into one unforgettable episode. Highlights: Hamilton Morris Takes Us to School 🧠💊: The Psychedelic Frontier: Hamilton explains why psychedelics aren’t just “drugs” but tools for exploring consciousness. How can they fit into harm reduction? And what about people in recovery? Salvia, DMT, and the Bizarre: Why salvia is the “weirdest drug ever” and why it deserves more respect (or fear). Hamilton shares his thoughts on liquid LSD in the eyes and why he’s never smoked crack. The Clack Incident: Dave revisits the time he smoked “clack” (crack, but in Chinatown) with a methadone dealer named Danny. “It wasn’t great, but Danny was really into it.” New Year, Same Chaos 🎆: Dave Calls Doug Bopst: Dave surprises Doug mid-recording to grill him about sugar addiction, fitness tips, and why Chick-fil-A is apparently Christian food. Doug suggests cutting out processed foods and prioritizing protein—Dave suggests doubling down on frosted mini-wheats with chocolate syrup. Sugar, Dopamine, and Decompression: Why Dave binges chocolate at night while watching Knicks games. Doug’s take on dopamine, cravings, and why recovery is all about consistency. The Dopey Fitness Challenge: Dave vows to run a Couch-to-5K… maybe. Doug advises him to take it one step at a time. “It’s not about losing 30 pounds in two weeks, Dave.” Listener Love 🎶: Jake’s Banjo Cover: West Virginia listener Jake delivers a raw, soulful banjo rendition of Dave’s song with an original third verse about surviving hard times. It’s shaky, heartfelt, and the perfect way to end the episode. Featured Guests: Hamilton MorrisGenius chemist, filmmaker, and explorer of the psychedelic unknown.
