What's Flying with Victor Dweck

Okay.

On to the next

Victor and comedian Peter Stewart discuss MindMed's new study showing that microdoses of LSD might reduce general anxiety disorder. They debate the obvious placebo problem (everyone knows if they got the real LSD), wonder why alcohol isn't already the anxiety cure, and Peter suggests the company might just be a guy who got caught with acid claiming 'it's for science.' Plus: Peter's recent stand-up set at a men's shelter with security guards on standby, the barber who watched Jaws instead of cutting hair, Canada's cat Stockholm syndrome situation, and the entrepreneurial genius behind 1-900-WET-FART. A surprisingly educational discussion about hallucinogens from two guys who barely know what they're talking about.

Victor and Constantino abandon any pretense of having a topic and just shoot the breeze for 30 minutes. They discuss Constantino's Taki addiction and mysterious pink vitamin drink, debate whether you can eat more than six saltines in a minute without water, and explore job interview strategies involving Viagra and suggestive fluid references.

Victor and experiential designer Constantino tackle the news that one of the famous conjoined twins Abby and Brittany got married and had a baby. They debate whether this counts as a permanent threesome, if the other twin needs headphones during intimate moments, and what happens if the other twin wants to marry someone else. The conversation spirals into Constantino's pool hustling techniques, his childhood in Germany with aggressive twin neighbors named Dave and Lamar, and memories of their Vegas work trips including a legendary elevator bit about horse racing on Broadway. Plus: dating app nightmares from Feeld and why Constantino draws the line at partners watching from the closet.

For the record…

Victor abandons the news format to focus on Liz's dating catastrophe. After months of daily FaceTiming with a British guy in San Francisco who talked about moving in together and sent birthday roses from Portugal, Liz flew out for a romantic weekend that turned into a nightmare.

Victor and sex worker Liz attempt to discuss the Enhanced Games - a proposed Olympics where steroids are mandatory - but get completely derailed by Liz's passionate stance that six-packs are pure vanity and she'd dump any guy who develops abs. They explore her hometown's steroid-fueled bodybuilding scene, debate whether shrimp-to-whale is the proper muscle metaphor, and Liz reveals she once cheated a drug test with a mystery GNC drink. Plus: honey on toast like the Beatles, the cultural phenomenon of avocado tattoos, why Liz can't use computers anymore, and breaking news that her San Francisco situationship just ended.

Victor and comedian Joe Levy attempt to discuss Taylor Swift's engagement to Travis Kelce but get derailed by Joe's 20mg of Adderall. They explore whether showing fantasy football teams is like showing baby photos, why Joe hates his friends but still plays fantasy with them, and Joe's groundbreaking bathroom smell theory (not too bad, not too good). Plus: Stockholm syndrome from the kidnapper's perspective, why Zyn pouches are worse than vaping, Joe's therapist quitting on him, and whether his musician girlfriend will become the next Taylor Swift. A scattered 33-minute journey through Joe's medicated mind.

This is me keeping the streak alive. Go listen. Plenty of episodes.
