| 0:17.2 | Breck and Ridge, Colorado. I hope you're having a beautiful day. This is a Solidarity Friday |
| 0:21.9 | episode, but a bit different. We have a two-parter here. We have Ben Sessa and Josh Barch. Ben is a |
| 0:29.2 | longtime staple of the psychedelic world. He's involved with Awaken, a really beautiful chain of |
| 0:37.1 | clinics in Europe, UK. And Josh Barch from |

| 1:39.8 | I hope you enjoy this episode. I think shortly we'll be back to our normal Friday programming where we, you know, |
