Hi TNHC community,

Thank you and enjoy!

New podcast! Jamie Wheal talks about psychedelics, bliss junkies & epiphany whores. You can’t miss this trip. 

Who is Jamie Wheal?

Jamie Wheal is the voice in the psychedelic space that is…. Let’s say unusual. No corporate talk, no black or white view on the world. Instead: listening to Wheal is a journey through the history, the future and the possible pitfalls of psychedelics. Mixed with rare insights and the ability to connect dots you thought could be connected. In other words: Jamie is a serious guy, but extremely entertaining. 

Jamie Wheal is the author of Recapture the Rapture: Rethinking God, Sex and Death In a World That's Lost Its Mind, and the Pulitzer-nominated global bestseller Stealing Fire: How Silicon Valley, Navy SEALs, and Maverick Scientists Are Revolutionizing the Way We Live and Work he co-wrote with Steven Kotler.  He is the founder of the Flow Genome Project, an international organization dedicated to the research and training of human performance.

His work and ideas have been covered in The New York Times, Financial Times, Wired, Entrepreneur, Harvard Business Review, Forbes, Inc., and TED. He has spoken at Stanford University, MIT, the Harvard Club, Imperial College, Singularity University, the U.S. Naval War College and Special Operations Command, Sandhurst Royal Military Academy, the Bohemian Club, and the United Nations.

What do we talk about ?

* The collapse of meaning in the last decades and how meaning 3.0 could actually look like. 

*  A modern “Alchemist Cookbook” is and why ethical cult building could be interesting.

* Jamie explains how flow looks like and what it has to do with neurotransmitters

* We talk about the current state of psychedelics, Davos, capitalism and the franchise shaman. 

So will our future be your and my brain on psychedelics?

Some great reads for this week

Does Being Denied an Abortion Harm Mental Health? Ask The NYT? I would say yes. 

“Rabbi Ben Gorelick is facing up to 32 years in prison for distributing psychedelics. His defense rests on the argument that tripping is a Jewish rite” writes the Guardian. This will be a “psychedelic” signature case. 

The V.A is studying psychedelics for veterans, it is happening! 

Talk soon!
