Support Lorenzo on Patreon.com Guest speaker: Jahan Khamsehzadeh PROGRAM NOTES: Today's podcast features a conversation with author Jahan Khamsehzadeh, whose recent book, The Psilocybin Connection, is a significant addition to our understanding of how psychedelic substances have aided humans throughout history and how they continue to do so. The book's publisher says that it is, “A comprehensive guide to psilocybin mushrooms and their impact on our psychology, biology, and social development. … Blending the selected experiences of nine people’s transformative experiences, his own psychedelic awakening, and the most comprehensive synthesis of psilocybin research to date, Khamsehzadeh’s Psilocybin Connection moves our understanding of the psychedelic mushroom forward toward a fresh, hopeful, and exciting future.”

0:00.0	Three-dimensional transforming, musical, linguistic objects.
0:07.0	Hello, the Chalves.
0:10.0	Greetings from Cyberdelic Space.
0:19.0	This is Lorenzo and I'm your host here in the Psychedelic Salon.
0:23.8	Well, it's been quite a while since my last podcast, and I'll spare you the minute details, but here are the headlines.
0:31.1	Since April, my wife and I have had COVID.

0:56.2	Now, to begin with, I want to apologize to Jahan, who is our guest author today, and I'm
1:01.7	really sorry for being so tardy in getting this podcast out. Charles told me about Jahan's book,
1:07.2	well, just before I came down with COVID, but I at least got to read the table of
1:11.3	contents and was really excited about visiting with him because I had a question that I'd like to
1:16.2	ask him.
1:17.3	Then life got in the way, and that resulted in this long delay, because this conversation was
1:22.6	actually recorded last May.
1:25.2	Now, the conversation we're about to listen to was actually recorded during one of
1:30.0	our live salons. And in case you aren't aware of it, when the pandemic began, I switched from doing
1:36.0	regular podcasts to hosting live salons on Mondays and Thursdays. For the first year of the pandemic,
1:42.1	we did two on Monday and two on Thursday.
