Third eye drops are intended for open-minded adults.

Now administering third eye drops. Welcome to what can only be called the Fastcast. The low-hanging rhyme fruit is too

tasty for me to ignore. I'm not talking about the kind of fast that's this kind of fast

where you talk real fast, although this is a shorter episode so I guess if you want

double entendres, you got one.

But now that I think about it, it's actually quite ironic

that the abstinence of eating is called a fast

because, if anything anything time certainly does not go by more quickly

while you are abstaining from eating. Really it's more like you're in slow

motion because fasting tends to put me in a state of constant

self-watching anxiety where you are hyper aware of your cravings and your entanglement with food, both from a survival

standpoint obviously, but also from a psychological dependence and pleasure angle.

Let me tell you, if anything this experience

has taught me, I have some food-based neuroses. I think we all do to varying degrees of course.

That and you're just not really physically comfortable when you're hungry.

But it is not all belly-aking, figurative or literal.

There are all sorts of physical and mental benefits to fasting and I am always a fan of mindful

Deprivation from time to time as a way to exercise your will and let yourself reset physically and mentally.

And I think if I get any further into it I would probably just be covering bits from the cast itself.

So let's just get to it and of course I've got to say this

fast cast includes my friend psychologist mystic and host of the meta programming podcast Psych, and he part took in this stoic act alongside me.

And thank your guardian deity of choice,
