I'm your host, Stephanie Powers. Welcome.

So growing up, I never did drugs. As a teenager, I never smoked weed.

I think I started drinking with my friends socially when I was 19, 20. I mean, I just never interested me. Of course, all my friends did it, but I just never had an interest in it. I wasn't very against it. It was just there, and it was always presented to me me and I always just shrugged my shoulders

like, I'm high off life. That's what I used to always say to my friends. I'm high off life.

So trying mushrooms, oh gosh, hell no. I mean, I didn't even want to smoke a joint or drink a beer.

So trying something as in-depth as mushrooms was enough.

But you guys have heard me and J.L. say recently on the podcast and Instagram that we have been micro-dosing mushrooms.

Haven't we?

Yes, we had.

Did you grow up like that?

Did you smoke weed, drank?

I grew up around, like, okay, so in high school, there was times that I did smoke weed, but not, like, most of the other children did.

Children?

Yeah, most of the other kids.

Most of all the toddlers of day care.

And that's a whole other topic of now that we've done them, it's like, wait, what's so bad about them again?

Yeah, I think they definitely open up things.
