Episode description

In this week's show we feature a tribute to friend of the show and supporter of The Farm Intentional Community, Dr. Joel Arya Goldstein. He passed away on July 10, 2022 at the age of 82. Him and his wife Betty Stevenson lived in Summertown, TN and were life long partakers of psilocybe cubensis or "Magic Mushrooms" and other natural hallucinogens. He was part of our first discussion on the influence of psychedelics in religion and he shared his experience and philosophy during this episode with the co-founder/host of Mystic-Skeptic Ryan Ratigan and I. We also feature music created by Joel as part of his prolific career as a folk singer and around the area were he lived.
