In the second episode of season 2 the altered mates continue our discussion of our personal experiences with ayahuasca.

In this episode, Alejandro relates his rather disturbing experience in one particular ceremony from his ayahuasca retreat in Iquitos, Peru in August 2024. Alejandro recounts his evening of existential dread—which he describes at one point as, "the worst feeling I’ve ever felt,” and Tobias offers insight and interpretation in response.

In the later stages of the episode, Tobias considers his intentions going into an upcoming ayahuasca ceremony.
