  • Episode 34 - Dharma Combat!" w/ Samuel Bercholz
    Legendary founder/editor in chief of Shambhala Publications Samuel Bercholz returns for his 5th appearance on the podcast to pick up the mic he dropped here in January. Instead, he drops the mic at least 5 more times in this gorgeous new episode dripping with crazy wisdom, penetrating truths and an onslaught of questionable humor. Sparks fly as Samuel and Jaymee share about the rebellious nature of the Buddha and how skepticism is widely used as a vehicle toward developing Buddhist fatih. Sam explains what "Dharma Combat" is and "Latter Day Hippies" are, why he needed to die in order to learn how to be human, more first hand stories of being a close personal friend and student of Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche's, and of course... in the usual Sam fashion, a few more controversial nuggets you won't hear anywhere else.

  • Episode 67 - "GONZO RECOVERY!!!"

    "Gonzo Recovery" is a phrase Jaymee coined to describe his healing journey out of 12 step sobriety, how he returned to sanity and now maintains a positive relationship with altered states of consciousness after a decade spent in recovery, therapy, meditation, plant medicine ceremonies and spiritual growth. Jaymee's best friend, attorney and music publisher Jeremy Smith share gnarly (untold) stories from their checkered pasts as former addicts, some of the most incomprehensible amends they had to make in the wake of their destruction, the necessity of focused periods of abstinence, though Jaymee ultimately makes a compelling case for why 12 Step Recovery and mental health treatment were only the first stops on his healing journey.

Jaymee shares what it was like running away from home at 17 and landing on The Deftones couch in Sacramento, the backstory of how his band got the gig as prom band on That 70's Show, what is was like having a conversation with Father John Misty in a population 18 town called "Harmony", Jaymee's life dealing drugs and surviving addiction and homelessness in downtown Los Angeles, how he found the Beastie Boys and their recording studio in the 90's by studying the hints left in their lyrics, and how he became an ego maniac for 10 years in AA.

  • Episode 32 - Nicole Macias McNamara
    Nicole Macias McNamara is the star of HBO's Emmy winning series 100 Foot Wave. Wife and partner of legendary big wave surfer Garrett McNamara, over the past decade Nicole has become a legend of her own as the creative intuitive force behind their international big wave surfing operation. She masterfully balances multiple high pressure roles in their life, while being a dedicated mother to their 3 children, and step-mother to Garett's 3 children from his previous marriage. Jaymee has been a fan of Nicole's ability to maintain a life of constant surrender on both the shows seasons, and asks how her family are able to maintain authenticity while living life in the limelight, constantly being filmed. You'll hear Nicole make a solid case for the monumental importance of breathing, the surprising loneliness of the spiritual path, how she changed her mind about plant medicine without using plant medicine, and a ton of fun extras about the making of 100 Foot Wave.

  • Episode 62 - "Meet The Neighbors! w/ Chris Faller & Genevieve Schatz"

    Jaymee introduces you to his miraculous new neighbors, musicians and spiritual seekers Genevieve Schatz & Chris Faller. Chris is a former member of the arena rock band The Hush Sound, and Genevieve is a featured vocalist on the new Goo Goo Dolls album. The young married couple and longtime music collaborators from Chicago are devotees of Neem Karoli Baba (Maharaj-ji) who cosmically landed in the next door apartment of Jaymee and Lacee. This episode is insanely hilarious 90 minute hang, dripping with wonder and sincerity. Jaymee gives a Lebowski-esque explanation of the ancient meditation method "Kriya Yoga" and shares his new "Obama's Cabinet" philosophy. Chris shares what it was like getting signed at an early age, immediately opening up for Fall Out Boy's arena tour, and how surprisingly disappointing he found that success can be. Genevieve gives a live demonstration of her highly tuned gift of clairvoyance and explains (perhaps once and for all) just what the hell "astral projecting" is.

  • Episode 60 - "SUPERGROUP! w/ Dïn Morris & Michael Morgan"

    Dïn Morris and Michael Morgan grew up with Jaymee in Altadena, CA. The three friends and collaborators have known each other spanning 3 decades, developing lifelong bonds early on with each other through their collective love of record collecting, beat making, photography, burritos and spiritual understanding. Whenever these three friends get together, they are a vortex of synchronicity and unconditional love. Din and Michael are two of the most important men in Jaymee's life; exuding wisdom, fearless introspection and prolific artistry while remaining humble.

    In this episode (one of Jaymee's personal favorite's) the three friends discuss the gift of daydreaming, the endless search by way of needle drop, the cultivation of intuition through beat making, what it was like playing frisbee with each other in the dark (inspired by Hazrat Inyat Khan's book The Mysticism Of Sound And Music), what it was like spending time with each other in the slow before the world got fast, how exponential growth within ones artistry comes as a result of inviting in criticism (willingly), personal fashion developing from a relationship with nature, their love of art that creates more of a question than an answer, and what album should be played when they pass away.
