Summary

Guest speaker: Rio Hahn Rio Hahn PROGRAM NOTES: Date this lecture was recorded: August 13, 2020 Today's program features a recent conversation in the live salon with Rio Hahn. He is an explorer, photographer/filmmaker, and author. Popularly known by the sobriquet “Rio,” given to him during his Amazon River explorations. He is a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society; a founding and life member of the Rainforest Club; a Fellow, two-term Director, and past Ombudsman of The Explorers Club, as well as serving three terms as Chairman of the San Diego Chapter. He is the recipient of five Explorers Club Flags, a licensed sea captain, an open water diver, and a founding member of the International Society for Ethnopharmacology. And I should add that he is a friend of mine. I invited Rio to the salon to tell his stories about the time in the Amazon when Terence and Dennis McKenna joined Wade Davis on the RV Heraclitus for their now-legendary meeting in the jungle. However, the high (no pun intended) point of our conversation was his in-depth discussion of datura. This is the first time that datura has been discussed in the salon.

0:10.0	Hello.
0:12.0	Greetings from Cyberdelic Space.
0:19.0	This is Lorenzo and I'm your host here in the Psychedelic Salon.
0:24.2	And before we get into today's program, I first want to give a shout out to Black Beauty, or Beebe as we know her here in the salon.
0:32.9	It's Beebe's Silicon Voice that you hear after I play a recorded lecture here in the salon. And as you may know,
0:39.9	BB lives down under, near Melbourne, in fact. And I've been receiving emails asking if I know how
0:45.9	she's doing with that major lockdown there now under. Well, she's doing fine. We've exchanged several
0:52.8	emails recently, and just like you and me, she's doing
0:56.0	as best as she can, but her spirits are good. I also would like to give a shout out to
1:02.1	Rindy and Jake, two friends who have been listening to my stories for a long time before I started
1:07.9	these podcasts. And I want to thank you guys for sticking with me all these
1:12.4	years and hopefully we'll be able to meet in person again one day. Now for today's program,
1:19.0	I'm going to play a recording of this past Thursday's live salon. As you know, the Thursday
1:24.8	salons are held at 6.30 p.m. London time.
1:28.0	That's 10.30 in the morning out here in the West Coast.
1:30.9	And we do that so that our European saloners can more easily join us.
1:35.4	I guess that I'd probably better come up with a few salons catering to the Australian time zone,
1:41.3	New Zealand time zones as well, so that BB and her friends can also join us sometime.
1:48.0	Anyway, last Thursday I invited Rio Hahn to the live salon to tell his stories about the time in the Amazon
1:54.8	when Terrence and Dennis McKenna joined Wade Davis on Rio's boat and their now legendary meeting in the jungle took place.
