Ben Stewart is one of the most talented documentary filmmakers in the world.

He also has a beautiful perspective on everything that's going on in the world,

as well as a deep understanding of psychedelica,

which was actually the name of a series that he produced for Gaia.

In this podcast, we talk about the darkness documentary that we collaborated on,

which is the raw, real recordings, animations and footage from my experience.

In six days of total silence, isolation and darkness in the middle of nowhere in Germany,

and all of the things that came through in that process.

So you'll hear more about that on this podcast.

And the documentary is available for streaming everywhere on all of my channels.

So give it a look.

And hopefully you'll enjoy this podcast and the documentary.

But before we get started, a word from our sponsors.

First up, we have World View.

World view, you might have heard me talk about it.

It's a stratospheric helium balloon that's going to allow you to rise up to the stratosphere.

Take telescopes like your own personal Hubble observatory and look at the heavens,

look at the stars, gaze at the borderline where the curvature of the Earth meets the blackness of space.

And then back down towards this beautiful blue gem of a planet and some of the seven sacred sites around the world,

like the Great Barrier Reef, Great Wall of China, the Grand Canyon, the Aurora Borealis,

the pyramids of Egypt, and see the Earth in a new way while at the same time exploring the stars and the heavens.

Like no civilian gets access to.
