Our Craziest Psychedelic Festival Stories

Brent and Tony answer your questions in this Q&A episode covering how festivals have changed as they got older, their most challenging psychedelic trips, and the wildest stories from over a decade of festival culture.

Why AI Will Never Replace Your Humanness

In the age of AI the people who stand out online are not the most polished. They are the most alive. Lola Love is a personal brand and visibility strategist with 11 years and 400 plus clients and her answer to standing out in an AI dominated world is simple — be ridiculously human raw and real. Her second ever viral post was a carousel of her and two girlfriends covered in mud on a beach in Hawaii. That was not a strategy. That was her highest joy. And that is exactly the point. She also opens up about getting cyberbullied in Bali into crippling shame that shut down her entire business, how tantra helped her alchemize it, coming back with a rap and a fire she did not have before, moving to Austin and rebuilding from nothing, and why she is now co-creating her own raspberry rose cacao flavor with Holy Wow Cacao. Plus the bath cast. Plus positive pranks. Plus what actually makes someone go viral.

The Candy Industry Has Been a Poison Factory for Decades and Two Founders Exposed It.

Just a genuinely good product that started with a high idea at a Skrillex concert landed after 30 plus formula iterations and now has strangers buying subscriptions six weeks after launch. They talk about the origin story the manufacturing nightmare the team running on pure equity and why the candy industry is basically a poison factory that nobody has bothered to fix yet.

Why Giving AI Your Life Is The Most Powerful And Dangerous Thing You Can Do

Automation without security is dangerous. Security without automation is exhausting. Jordan Mayer is the founder of Mayday Cyber and Naptic and he built both companies from a travel trailer with Starlink because nobody else was combining deep cybersecurity with agentic AI systems. In this episode he breaks down why ADHD and neurodivergent people will thrive in the AI era why zero day vulnerabilities are more terrifying than ever why Mythos keeps him both excited and awake at night and why every small business that is not thinking about security while they automate is leaving the front door wide open for someone who is.
