SHOW NOTES:

*This show originally aired 11/18/2020 on various platforms.

*Please excuse the the technical difficulties. We were experiencing internet issues. We had been trying to do this show for months and it finally came together so we decided to proceed despite the challenges.

Dani and Emily are joined by esteemed scholar and researcher Robert Forte. Robert is an expert in both comparative religion and various psychedelic movements late 20th and early 21st centuries. While Robert has very fond memories of both his experiences and the characters of the various movements, he has also developed a very healthy skepticism of them. This show is an introduction to Robert and his story. It will be followed up by a series of conversations about the characters (some well known, others less so) he's come across over the course of his journey. Enjoy!
