Dennis Walker (Mycopreneur): The Court Jester of the Psychedelic Renaissance
Manage episode 371526042 series 2527850
Psychedelic Science, the largest psychedelic conference in history, put on by the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies, has come and gone. Today, to recap this event and to emphasize the vital role of the trickster in the psychedelic movement, I'm speaking with Dennis Walker, the Instagram satirist well-known for his roastings of all things psychedelic.
In this episode, we explore the role of satire in holding social movements accountable—a necessity in our current times. We discuss the trickster archetype and Dennis, adopting his popular persona, the narcissistic neo-shaman Don Chad, recaps Psychedelic Science. We conclude our discussion with how humor keeps psychedelics entertaining and helps level the playing field.
Dennis Walker, our guest today, hosts the Mycopreneur podcast, which showcases and supports fungi entrepreneurs from around the globe. He's a contributing writer at Lucid News, and his popular Instagram channel frequently goes viral due to his candid satirizing of the psychedelic community.
