With this next installment of The Solandarian Game, some surprising moves are made. In chapter 23, Shuntsu, now with regained lucidity, assembles his crack team of Avatars to play the game, and meanwhile, in chapter 24, back on Solandaria, Norbu learns that there's a source of unexpected resistance to Ash's message as he contemplates their next move. The full audiobook is available at Audible, Amazon, and the Apple Bookstore, and the AI-Imagined Art Illustrated Version is available as an ebook at Kindle and Apple, and also as a full color PDF at my Patreon Shop. 

My guest this week is Jeffrey Stevens from Psyched Wellness which has developed an effective and safe amanita muscaria extract product, "Calm." Having used it myself, I can attest to its calming, relaxing, and dreamy effects - completely unlike psilocybin mushrooms. It's primarily marketed as a sleep aid, but can be used for enjoyment as an alcohol alternative, as well. We discuss the product, sleep, and more. 

In the next two chapters of the audiobook of The Solandarian Game, Theo invites Sophia to meet him at Black Rock City Station where they have a virtual experience of Burning Man, and Ash makes it to the Temple of the Mystic Toad on Solandaria. The full audiobook is available at Amazon, Audible, and the Apple Bookstore, and the AI-Imagined Art Illustrated version of the novel is available in ebook, kindle, and full-color PDF at my Patreon Shop. 

My guest this week is Hamilton Souther of Blue Morpho Academy. In our conversation we get into Hamilton's spiritual awakening, his controversial apprenticeship in the world of ayahuasca, and the development of Blue Morpho and its programs for serving ayahuasca and dietas. 

This week on The Entheogenic Evolution, I've got the next two chapters of the audiobook of The Solandarian Game for your listening enjoyment. In Chapter 19, Norbu, deciding he's going to help Ash with her mission, encourages her to smoke some toad with him, and in Chapter 20, Shuntsu gets a personal visit from Theo as he comes to his senses. The full auidobook is available at Amazon, Audible, and the Apple Bookstore, and the AI-Imagined Art Illustrated Version with over 600 images is available with my other books at my Patreon Shop

The other week, as part of the course I'm helping teach with the Mindscape Psychedelic Institute, I, along with several of the students, visited The UnChurch in Iowa for in-person training. This week's episode recounts my impressions and reflections on the week, what I feel the students got out of it, why instruction on both theory and practice are important, as well as a few comments made by the students themselves of what they feel they've gained by participating in the course. 

My guest this week is Pyasa Neko Siff who's here to share her beautiful and moving 5-MeO-DMT-inspired spoken word piece, which is also available as a visually captivating video HERE. We have a deep conversation about the 5-MeO experience and the process of articulating deep truths from the experience, such as is available here with her spoken word. 

We continue with two more chapters of The Solandarian Game. In chapter 17, Ash contacts her blissfully ignorant double to enlist her help with Solandaria, and in chapter 18 Hydar, along with the rest of the Humanist avatars, watches with horror as Shuntsu's atomic cascade weapon does its intended job. The full audiobook of The Solandarian Game is available at Amazon, Audible, and the Apple Bookstore, and the AI-imagined art illustrated version is available as a full-color PDF at my Patreon Shop.

My guest this week is director and filmmaker, Jeffery Lando, who's here to share all about his new film, "Lissa's Trip". A young actress accidentally takes too much LSD and has to take an inner and outer trip across Los Angeles for an audition in this delightful indie film which makes novel use of AI in a variety of ways, including the production of psychedelic visuals. Jeffery joined me for a lively discussion all about it. You can find the film online HERE.

Here's more from the audiobook of The Solandarian Game. This week, Shunstu goes to Eden Biological Park to see if he can figure out who's releasing butterflies into the Volunshari ecosystem in Chapter 15, and in Chapter 16, Theo takes Norbu off Solandaria for a history tour of the New Integral Society. Don't forget: the full-color PDF of the AI-Imagined Art Illustrated Version of the novel is available at my Patreon Shop
