Fresh off appearances on Joe Rogan and Lex Fridman, Norman Ohler stopped by Edge City Patagonia for a mind-expanding 90-minute conversation.
We dive deep into the hidden role of drugs in history: from methamphetamine fueling the Blitzkrieg and Hitler's own dependencies, to the CIA's MKUltra experiments that derailed LSD's potential as medicine, the ancient origins of the "Stoned Ape" theory (with a twist on ibogaine), and why psychedelic freedom might be key to rethinking civilization beyond the nation-state.
