Episode 8 – James Xander (@emperorjames) joins Zach Schenken (@zdschenken) on his podcast, for a deep conversation about life, psychedelics, and spirit. 

We dive into my story: how I discovered psychedelics, and how my experiences with LSD, DMT, and mushrooms have shaped my life. We also dive into the manifestation, reality creation, and the nature of reality. Finally, we talk about the 1 Billion Humans mission: a mission to unite the planet with the help of psychedelics.

I am so grateful to Zach for hosting this interview; this was one of my favourite conversations ever. The vibes were definitely flowing. You can find Zach's excellent podcast at The Vitruvian Podcast.
