Our story of King Dipsh*t Supreme comes to a dramatic conclusion this week with Part II. As an added bonus for Christmas week, I've also got an exclusive "slow jam" with the big man, Santa himself, who joined me in my home recording studio to deliver his Christmas 2025 message. As with last week's episode, this is NSFW or for Children, so please enjoy responsibly.

It’s the time of year that we tell stories of irredeemable characters whose hearts are cold, or too small, or filled with a gaping void, who are offered a chance at redemption. In the vein of Scrooge from Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol,” and the Grinch of Dr. Seuss’ “The Grinch Who Stole Christmas,” I give you a contemporary story with another repulsive and self-absorbed character, Dipsh*t Supreme, the hateful man who would be king. Surrounded by sycophants, toadies, enablers, and ass-kissers, can Dipsh*t, an incompetent and unintelligent man bent on revenge, retribution, and the accumulation of more and more power, find a path to redemption? Will reality win, in the end? Will he ever fill the void in his hateful heart? Filled with captivating characters like Dipsh*t, Spud Muffin, Big Brain Bobby, and more, told through compelling narration, this new and timeless classic is exclusively available here, offered in two parts. Curl up next to the fire in a warm blanket, pour yourself a cup of hot coffee, sit back, relax, and strap in for a wild and satirical ride into the depths of Dipsh*t’s depraved heart for a holiday story like no other … NSFW or Children!

My guest this week is Christian Rasmussen from AMENTARA (formerly MN Nice Ethnobotanicals) to discuss amanita mushrooms, blue lotus, kava, and more. We get into dosage, experience, and why Christian feels that amanita is the most demanding experience of them all. Visit them online here: AMENTARA.com

Here are the next two chapters of the audiobook of The Alchemist and the Eagle for your listening enjoyment. In these two chapters, "The Mission," and "Gateway to Jeaniaurduin," Ashi and her religious followers make a territorial push into the interior of Aurduin to claim land back from the control of the invading Jolao Empire.

I've got a husband and wife team as guests this week on The Entheogenic Evolution Podcast - Stephan and Amber Kerby of Mindscape Institute. They've just released their co-authored work, The Embodiment Protocol: A Practical Guide to Awakening with 5-MeO-DMT, which is now available as paperback and ebook on Amazon. As this is Amber's first time being interviewed on the podcast, we devote a great deal of the interview to letting her introduce herself and her entry into psychedelic therapy and teaching.

Also, my 5-MeO-DMT Glossary is now available, which I created for our students at Mindscape and it's now out for the general public as a full-color art book, ebook, and audiobook.

Lastly, it's my birthday this week and I'm giving away my new album "Solar Return," which is available for free download at www.martinball.bandcamp.com

My guest this week is psychedelic comic book creator, Daniel Moler. We had a very engaging and wide-ranging discussion about psychedelics, representational art, the nature of story telling, super heroes, fascism, and the joy of creating good old fashioned physical objects such as will be produced with Daniel's Crowdfundr campaign to produce copies of his latest offering, "Psychonaut 5." Find out more about Daniel at his webpage, www.danielmolerweb.com

My guest this week is Clementine Kruczynski who uses a unique "private law" and "private trust" approach to establishing legally protected entheogenic churches. While I've featured lawyers who seek to apply Religious Freedom Restoration Act legal exemptions for creating entheogenic churches, Clementine promotes an entirely different route and is thus sharing with the listening audience a new way of thinking about legal protection. Clementine offers both individual consulting as well as classes and workshops on the topic and you can find out more about her services and approach at her website, www.themindofclementine.com

My guest this week is founder of Enfold, a full-service 5-MeO-DMT facilitation program near Vancouver Canada that specializes in 5-day protocols with both vaporized and injectable 5-MeO-DMT. We had an excellent conversation that, for me, highlights many of the things that I like to encourage with 5-MeO-DMT facilitation. To learn more about Steve's work, visit the website Enfold.org
