They discuss the current psychedelic movements, the influence of the CIA, MKUltra and the importance of discernment within the community. Robert speaks to the commercialization, commodification and weaponization of the current psychedelic movements. The dialogue emphasizes the need to balance awareness of societal issues with personal joy and the purpose of consciousness.
