This week, I’m re-releasing a previous episode featuring my friend Ken Jordan who passed away recently. I’m saddened at the loss of Ken who was such a beautiful soul, a wonderful man and a bright light in this world. Ken was instrumental in the psychedelics movement through his advocacy and journalism as founder of Lucid News.  Ken left an imprint on me as a friend and collaborator. I will remember him fondly and carry his energy forward. My heart goes out to his family and friends.  I wanted to honor Ken by re-releasing this episode to share his message with the world. His life story is a beautiful one and one that ended too early.  I hope you enjoy &amp; please check out Ken&#39;s publication, Lucid News to learn more about his legacy and journalism focused on the advancement of psychedelics.
