Somehow it's already been over a year since Colin Frangicetto and I embarked upon our trying, enlightening, unforgettable Ayahuasca adventure at the beautiful Blue Morpho lodge outside of Iquitos Peru.

We muse about how things have changed, the magic in the mundane, whether or not another Aya adventure is in our future, and more.

Colin Frangicetto is a musician, podcaster, and artist most well-known for playing in the band Circa Survive.

Iowasca podcasts we did back then,

said magic was not revealed to me in an easy way. It was revealed via a violent juxtaposition.

1:59.0

i.e. oh, you think what you call normal is boring. You need inspiration. Do you? Well, here is utter chaos and suffering and the brink of insanity.

2:36.3

If you do want to hear more about it, check out that series of Iowaasca adventure podcasts. Colin and I did a while back.

Back to the point though, leading up to and via this conversation, I did do some reflecting, and that is one of the main truly honest
