In this week's installment of psychonautica, Max Freakout first
mentions the new podcast from Jan Irvin of pharmacratic
inquisition, and then reads out a listener comment about Western
attitudes towards psychosis contrasted with shamanic attitudes.
Next, Max plays the second installment of the 2 part panel
discussion from the World psychedelic forum started in episode 56,
called 'Everything you always wanted to know about psychedelics, a
conversation between experts and users', featuring Rick Doblin,
Dennis Mckenna, Dale Pendell and Kathleen Harrison. They discuss
the chemical composition of Kratom, potential problems of using
Kratom extracts, the analgesic properties of Salvia Divinorum,
determining the toxicity of drugs, laboratory testing of drugs on
animals, avoiding fear on psychedelic trips, being open to the
psychedelic experience, mixing LSD with LSD to assist in openness,
why bad trips should not be avoided, being convinced that you are
dying/going crazy on a trip, keeping energy moving on a trip,
getting headaches after a trip, the importance of keeping your body
hydrated, using cannabis alongside psychedelics, the importance of
diet before a trip, remembering psychedelic experiences afterwards,
stating your intention before embarking on a trip, different
varieties of ayahuasca session, and the balance of masculine and
feminine energies. Email maxfreakout@hotmail.co.uk and join the
