Episode Description

We're Back!

Well, not quite. We are releasing this FULL EPISODE now because it's timely, and because we ARE coming back, and soon! New episodes will be coming back at you every other week starting at the end of March.

We've been hard at work and have numerous interviews recorded and queued up for the editing bay. We're very excited to share them with you.

This interview is with the fantastic Jean Lacy, founder of World Tree Sanctuary, the Illinois Psychedelic Society and all-around go getter. She's also a farmer and fellow (to Nate) central Illinoisan. We talk about her work with ceremonial and religious use at World Tree Sanctuary and about the process of crafting the Illinois Compassionate Use of Natural Plants and Fungi act.

The act, which is a mouthful, has a legislative sponsor in Illinois, Representative LaShawn Ford, and is still in draft form- but is taking shape.

Altered Mates Altered Mates Altered Mates is a podcast where two mates, each fascinated by altered states, meet to discuss the psychedelic experience and its implications for society, culture, health, science, and philosophy. Alejandro is novelist and a teacher of english and psychology. Tobias is an academic and a lecturer in social work and psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy. Our conversations are always grounded in our own direct experiences with a range of ‘altered’ states of consciousness. Hero of the podcast, William James, suggests that, “Our normal waking consciousness… is but one special type of consciousness, whilst all about it, parted from it by the filmiest of screens, there lie potential forms of consciousness entirely different… No account of the universe in its totality can be final which leaves these other forms of consciousness quite disregarded.”You could say that we are trying to construct a better account of our universe, and we are taking James’ advice to heart, by seriously regarding th Explicit AI: Appalachian Intelligence GooseSquatch Media Hello folks and welcome to Appalachian Intelligence.
