Summary

This is one of my all time favorite conversations with comedian, philosopher, and fellow psychonaut Duncan Trussell. I can’t think of a better time to bring this conversation back to the collective. We discuss how psychedelics are challenging the stories about how to heal trauma, the reality of how small our fears are in comparison to the divine, and the illusion of control that we all love so much.

So when I was thinking about the best conversations I've had that might be apt for the times we're in now,

0:04.9

I thought about a podcast I did with Duncan Trussell when I was at the Maps Psychedelic Science Conference.

0:10.8

And what we talk about is how the mind is something that we all have to manage internally.

0:16.6

And when there's external stresses like we're seeing now, it exposes our need for control.

0:21.9

We're trying to control all these outcomes, which typically means that we haven't accepted the

0:26.8

inevitability of certain outcomes like our own death. And Duncan is the absolute perfect person

0:31.6

to talk about this with. And also it gives me an opportunity to update you right now

0:36.0

that the Maps Research on MDMA-assisted psychotherapy just got another great stamp of approval from

0:43.2

the FDA, which has announced that they can continue with their phase three trials without any

0:48.5

modifications. And it looks like those trials are going well, just like the phase two trials had

0:53.7

gone before. And MDMA is on the fast track, literally, to legalization. So after a few

1:01.0

shout outs to my sponsors, we're going to give you this podcast commercial free. And I hope you

1:05.3
