I hope you've enjoyed listening to The Solandarian Game here on The Entheogenic Evolution podcast. This week's episode has the final three chapters and the brief epilogue. The full audiobook is available at Amazon, Audible, and the Apple Bookstore, and the illustrated version of the novel in PDF format with full-color images is available at 50% off until Dec 1st at my Patreon Shop. Thanks so much for listening and I sincerely hope that you've found it to be a story that's been worth it to tune in to every-other week :)

Shaun Ryan was my fellow panelist at Psychedelic Awakening 2024 in Los Angeles last month and is an ayahuasca and 5-MeO-DMT facilitator. Since we shared the stage together, I thought it would be fruitful to invite him onto the podcast so I could get to know him better and also bring you another great conversation, so that's what happened. Shaun shares his personal healing and transformation journey with psychedelic medicines, his ayahuasca apprenticeship, and his work with 5-MeO-DMT. You can learn more about Shaun and his offerings via his website, Divine Guidance

Nyx returns to the podcast this week to discuss her new book, The Dawn of the Astrorganism: Aligning Humanity, AI, and the Earth's Future. I'll let our conversation unpack all of that. You can learn more at her website, Astrorganism.earth

Put your thinking caps on and relax into your float tank or sensory deprivation chamber for a lively conversation with philosopher, Randolph Dible. You can learn more about Randy's work and interest in float tanks and the phenomenology of consciousness and nonduality (The Ball of the All, or the Universal Ontology of the Infinite Sphere) at his website, RandolphDible.com

While smoking DMT at a gathering of friends, Charles Patti made contact with something more, and his life was changed. This is his story of how he healed with DMT, got into Ketamine therapy, opened a clinic in Florida, developed a podcast, created a non-profit for veteran access to psychedelic healing, his experience with psychedelic parenting, and more. So many interesting topics, all in one episode! Find out more about Charles and his projects with these links: Clinic, DMTx, Warriors of Consciousness

Production note: there were some occasional transmission hiccups on Charles' side of the conversation. I've tried to edit them as best I could, but expect a few places where the audio gets a little glitchy.

My guest this week is Spencer Burton, founder of Iboga Rebirth, the first and only legal entheogenic church in the state of Oregon that provides Iboga retreats. This interview adds to my growing collection of conversations about entheogenic churches and is another addition to those that are specifically in the great state of Oregon. Spencer and I had a lengthy conversation about his own initiation into Iboga, his time with the Bwiti, and how he sees Iboga as assisting in the process of rebirthing oneself into a more authentic and present way of being and living life.

My guest this week is Jeffrey Stevens from Psyched Wellness which has developed an effective and safe amanita muscaria extract product, "Calm." Having used it myself, I can attest to its calming, relaxing, and dreamy effects - completely unlike psilocybin mushrooms. It's primarily marketed as a sleep aid, but can be used for enjoyment as an alcohol alternative, as well. We discuss the product, sleep, and more.

My guest this week is Hamilton Souther of Blue Morpho Academy. In our conversation we get into Hamilton's spiritual awakening, his controversial apprenticeship in the world of ayahuasca, and the development of Blue Morpho and its programs for serving ayahuasca and dietas.
