    May 25 2022
    Matthew and Laura catch up a little and Matthew reports back from his annual legal psychedelic therapy session. We get into some of our favorite topics - the relationship between altered states of consciousness and creativity and music! Specifically music made by musicians on drugs for people on drugs. (Can you guess one of our favorite bands that we talk about ?) This episode, we are especially blessed with the road and life wisdom of one of psychedelic rock n roll’s royalty-Bobby Weir! Matthew digs into his personal archives and plays for us an interview he and a journalist friend did with Bobby back in 2008 out at his home in Mill Valley. Matthew finally was able to ask him many of the questions he’s always wanted as we touch on current politics, sustainability, psychedelics, meditation, creativity, the Muse and clues to the afterlife Bobby has found within his unbreakable bond with his dearly departed band mate and brother, Jerry Garcia. An episode for the ages and we’re only five deep! You won’t want to miss this one! Special thanks to Bruno Torturro! Musical contribution on ‘My Jerry’ by John Kane
