  • Episode 20 - Community Podcast Vol. 1

    A new and different episode of It's All Happening! This one is called the "Community Podcast Vol. 1." The general idea is to bring you a few different guests who are doing amazing works in the community. Arjuna O'Neal, Raja Michelle and Kelsea Rea are, respectively, doing some cool things in and around LA that help promote wellness, helping the underserved and bringing awareness to where our great city is lacking.

    Also, I'm fresh of the Open Your Heart in Paradise retreat with Ram Dass, Krishna Das and friends. So I took this opportunity to go on a little rant about how this was the best OYHIP yet and how I'm still trying to make sense of the love portal that can be experienced there.

  • Episode 18 - Gay Dillingham and Joanna Harcourt-Smith

    Gay and Joanna gently help IAH dive into the saga of Timothy Leary just this one time. The episode gets shot through a love cannon when a forgotten and shocking Tim Leary prison story is revealed half way through - the four of us then dance around the planes of the universe, why humans behave the way they do and the quest for love and other altered states of consciousness.

    Gay Dillingham is the producer and director of the documentary "Dying to Know: Ram Dass and Timothy Leary"
