58: The Mind and Life Altering Joys of Psychedelics w. Mike Brancatelli

The question of the day is... "Psychedelics: Good? Bad? Dangerous? Revolutionary?"Of course there is still a massive stigma around this topic and it's very likely the result of lack of education or experience. From anarchy to death metal, people are always the most frightened of what they just don't understand. I myself, have personally never tried psychedelics, so I cannot and will not speak to the values or harm, but I am fascinated by many of the stories I've heard from people that do. Psychedelics are a profound and largely unexplainable phenomenon that exists in our world and I believe we are doing a great disservice to our species in not investigating their effects further.My guest today, I suppose you could say is a psychedelics connoisseur of sorts; Mike Brancatelli of the Mikeadelic podcast. Mike has gone to great lengths to respectfully study and educate people on the topic. In this episode we discussed Mike's history that lead to his fascination with the psychedelic substances, his latest Iowaska adventure, his best and worst trips, and much more. Is Mike Brancatelli just some EDM hippie burnout junkie, or is he just some dude in search of his best life?
