Dane invites you on the long and winding road to enlightenment, which, in your case, is achieved by listening to his story of momentary enlightenment, very temporary ego death, and a speedy return to ego life... and why that's just perfectly alright. Godly, even. First, some talk about Comedy Open Mics. Then, Discover that you're the bodhisattva with words by Dane Curley & Alan Watts.

Remembering that he's a SciFi writer, and being very excited by the forthcoming sequel, Dane devotes an entire MCREC episode to The #MATRIX. Dane explains his theory that The Matrix extends to Zion, citing Morpheus's last words in the original trilogy: "Is this real?" and other important clues. He also shares Lana Wachowski's genuinely great motives for making another film in the series (not just a cash grab) and does his very best acting job as Agent Smith to relive some of Hugo Weaving's best monologues.

After a very comedic first-half (loaded with madness and voices), Dane, a self-proclaimed "left-libertarian," continues his attempt to pluck a cancer out from his own side of the aisle. He reads an excerpt from The Economist's new series "The Illiberal Left," shares his disdain for the Language Police, and asks members of both political wings to attack authoritarianism from within their own camps. 

PS: Giving "woke corporations" control of our language rights... what could go wrong?

Dane realizes that the state of Boxing, where old has-beens fight older has-beens, and where YouTube celebrities fight washed up MMA fighters, proves that humanity is worthless. Only after recording did the perfect title for this episode come to mind: Idiocracy Comes to Boxing.

Fitting, as former president Donald Trump will provide ringside commentary on September 11th for Evander Holyfield (58-years-old boxer) versus Vitor Belfort (44-years-old, MMA fighter). Wait a second... on September 11th? Yeesh. Stay after the outro-song to hear some bonus about that!

Dane reads headlines from C.omplete N.onsense N.ews, riffs on current events, and slams the Nonsense-peddlers for how many stupid pop culture stories they consider "Front Page News". Who gives a f*** about Barry Manilow!? But hey, folks, we absolutely must be informed about who's hosting Jeopardy. Come for the double standards, stay for the hilarious takes on them.

Dane explores a handful of cutting-edge Psychedelic Therapy offerings and looks at what other Psychedelic Prescription Drug companies entering the LEGAL market are doing. Get some laughs with your facts!

As psychedelics go mainstream, and gen pop interest in therapies gains momentum, it's important to be aware of the contraindications to treatment... but also to know that even for those who are presently contraindicated (they cannot undergo psychedelic therapy), help may soon be on the way. And that's why Dane sings and psychoanalyzes the lyrics to the TOOL song "The Patient" from Lateralus. Don't miss this one!

Break on through! We're singing The Doors, explaining their band-name, and diving down the psychedelic rabbit hole. Come for the Native American peyote religions and stay for the mescaline. Dane reads poems from Wilderness Vol 1: The Lost Writings of Jim Morrison, talks about Aldous Huxley and Alexander Shulgin, and romps across topics from Censorship to Cactus Alkaloids. It's a damn good time.
