We have a particularly good episode for you all this week. We once more forgo our usual segments as Cody interviews beloved psychonaut, author and 32nd degree Master Mason, PD Newman. Just this last June, Newman released the absolutely wonderful book, Alchemically Stoned: The Psychedelic Secret of Freemasonry. Cody has been eagerly awaiting this conversation for some time, as Newman'a writings have influenced his work a great deal. Strap in and grab a notebook, because we dive deep into the history of psychedelic sacraments in Freemasonry. Please consider supporting us on patreon.com/psillyrabbits, or by giving us a five star review on iTunes, Stitcher, Libsyn or whatever your favorite podcast outlet may be. If you’re buying something from Amazon anyway, and you click through the links in this sentence, the show gets a small percentage of the total sale.
