Emerson Dameron's Medicated Minutes

"The less you care, the harder you come."Your therapist won't tell you this, but caring too much is the ultimate cockblock to pleasure. And you, my sweet, overly invested friend, are drowning in a sea of giving-a-fuck when you could be floating in an ocean of delicious indifference.Welcome to this week's episode, where we're going to strip you of your precious concerns like a dominatrix peeling off your armor of good intentions.You think you need more love? More connection? More meaning?Wrong.What you need is the courage to stop giving a damn, and I'm here to hurt you in all the ways that'll set you free.Get ready for:- A master class in the art of strategic apathy- The dirty truth about why your caring addiction is cock-blocking your evolution- How psychedelics might divorce you from your neediness (and why that's hot)- The sexiest thing about power (hint: it doesn't care what you think about it)Listen as we explore why drama is the foreplay of existence, and how your resistance to pleasure is just fear wearing a consent-culture costume.This isn't self-help. This is self-harm in reverse – destroying the parts of you that keep sabotaging your liberation.If you're clutching your pearls of wisdom too tight to let new pleasure in, this episode will teach you the art of letting go like a zen master having a tantric breakthrough.WARNING: Side effects may include:- Spontaneous outbreaks of not giving a fuck- Increased pleasure tolerance- Decreased tolerance for your own bullshit- Sudden urges to prioritize your pleasure over others' comfort- The ability to say "no" without writing a thesis to justify itAvailable now wherever you get your permission to stop caring so damn much.The stakes are high, but your anxiety about them doesn't have to be.Come play in the space between caring too much and not caring at all. That's where the real pleasure lives.And remember: If you're worried about whether you should listen to this episode, that's exactly why you need to.Your enlightenment is optional. Your pleasure is mandatory.Got something to say to me? Slide into the DMs.Support the showIt's OUT!

"Vulnerability Looks Good on You" is from Emerson Dameron's Sophistication Nation. Get it. It certainly gets you.Vulnerability opens us to perceiving more of reality beyond the mere three percent our survival-focused brains typically process. Despite knowing the risks, maintaining an open mind to life's experiences allows us to tune in to what most people miss.• Reality is described as a "controlled hallucination" where we're designed to survive rather than thrive • The courage to maintain vulnerability despite past hurts creates deeper perception• Comparing rumination to playing a song on a jukebox—having the thought isn't suffering, but repeating the story about it is• Finding joy in creative pursuits by putting yourself "first and last" during dedicated art time• Dreams offering valuable insights rather than just "white noise"• The surprising discovery of becoming a fan of your artistic expression• Sunday evening plans as a remedy for "Sunday scaries"Got something to say to me?

We're not.Listen as we strip away the Instagram filters from mental health and expose the raw machinery of depression, anxiety, and the cosmic joke of trying to give others what they want for you in a world that's collectively losing its mind.Warning: Side effects may include:Persistent questioning of realitySudden attacks of authentic self-expressionReduced tolerance for societal bullshitUncontrollable urges to create art from your traumaA strange new comfort with uncertaintyGet ready to dive deep into the beautiful mess of being human, where porn meets philosophy and luck arm-wrestles with destiny.

Welcome to your moment of reckoning. In this electrifying episode of Emerson Dameron's Medicated Minutes, the avant-garde motivational maestro dissects your inner psyche with razor-sharp precision, uncovering truths you didn't even know you were hiding.

Let's cut the crap about power corrupting. Power is pure voltage, baby – it's what you do with the current that electrocutes your enemies or lights up the world.If you're afraid of power, stay tuned. Because this episode is going to rewire your moral circuitry and show you why your ethical hang-ups about influence are exactly why you need more of it.The saints who shun power are leaving the controls to the sinners, and how's that working out for everyone?Get ready for a masterclass in ethical dominance where you'll discover:Why your resistance to power is really resistance to yourselfHow to stop confusing manipulation with masteryThe dirty little secret about why good people finish last (spoiler: they're choosing to)Why your relationship with power is more intimate than your last three lovers combinedThis isn't just another podcast episode – it's an intervention for the chronically powerless. For the empaths who keep getting steamrolled by sociopaths. For the bright minds dimming their light because they're scared of their own voltage.Your mental wealth is your real net worth, and we're here to make you spiritually rich enough to buy and sell your old limiting beliefs on the cosmic stock exchange.The weak want power to dominate. The strong want power to create. And the wise? They're already listening to this episode, because they know that true intimacy with power is the ultimate foreplay for changing the world.Stop being so damn polite about your potential. Power isn't coming to ask for your consent – it's waiting for you to claim it.Listen now. Or don't. But remember: your resistance to power is someone else's permission to use it against you.The choice is yours. And that's the first taste of power you'll get today.Welcome to the revolution between your ears.All that, plus a pop-in from Helena the Brit! And all the lessons in love, leadership, lechery, and letting go you've come to expect from The Only Good Podcast™!Emerson Dameron's Medicated Minutes is LA's number-one avant-garde personal development program.

Step inside a space where romance dissolves, reassembles, and defies linear time. Here, each glance, every touch, and whispered secret transforms into vibrant, disjointed symbols—each moment hanging like a half-forgotten dream in the fevered pulse of a Cubist landscape.As Jill—demure, strawberry-blonde, and shyly sensual—ventures deeper into the maze of this playful, dangerous world, she encounters shadows of herself and layers of him that emerge, vanish, and reappear as distorted reflections. Her journey is a whirlwind of open loops and callbacks, riddles within riddles, where every encounter is doubled, refracted, and turned inside-out. Embrace the labyrinthine unknown where boundaries blur, roles reverse, and eroticism merges with danger to ignite hidden desires in a twisted lover's waltz. Lose yourself in a hallucinatory landscape where the heart's maze twists with vibrant colors and sharp contrasts, each scene laced with seductive undertones and reflected revelations.Fragments of Desire will leave you reeling and breathless, caught between what is, what isn't, and what you wish could be.PS: You know who you are.Support the showSupport the show directly, or get exclusive goodies via Bandcamp.

What if the very things you think you can't control are exactly where your power lies? On this episode of Medicated Minutes, we challenge you to rethink the inevitability of life's events and the importance of personal responsibility, all wrapped in Emerson Dameron's signature humor and wit. We kick off with a passionate monologue that tackles these existential themes head-on, urging you to embrace life's chaos rather than resist it. From the ironies of trying to stop the unstoppable to finding freedom in the mundane, we present a philosophy that turns conventional wisdom on its head.Can you love yourself without succumbing to the trap of fame? We then pivot to a deep-dive into the paradoxical dance between self-love and sadism, exploring how public attention can wreak havoc on mental health. By drawing parallels with historical figures and examining consensual sadistic practices, we illustrate the necessity of rigorous self-discipline and mutual respect for personal growth. This segment is a hard-hitting look at how embracing one's flaws and leveraging past pain can pave the way for true healing and transformation.Finally, we explore the transformative power of shedding one's ego and embracing observational awareness. Through the poignant story of Scarlet Obscura, a Nova Scotian artist seeking meaning in Los Angeles, we emphasize the importance of creativity and curiosity in understanding both ourselves and others. This narrative serves as a testament to the power of art and self-expression amidst life's unpredictability. Tune in to discover how you can harness creativity, humor, and empathy to navigate the chaos of existence and find deeper meaning in everyday life.Support the showSupport the show directly, or get exclusive goodies via Bandcamp.

But now, his uppance is coming for him like a mack truck from Jupiter wrapped in silk sheets.Enter Ava, a wealthy heiress with a penchant for debauchery. She's got salons full of friends who want to push wild, rough sex to its carnal limits, and she's more than happy to supply the playground.

She's our boy's favorite toy, easy to manipulate, and good for a hearty physical workout. But somewhere in the silence between his grunting and gloating, our Polka Dot starts catching feelings – and suddenly, screwing Clover is screwing with his lazy, self-serving, cynical worldview.As Ava and Clover's wild schemes unfold, our Squeeze Box Socrates finds himself tangled in a web of scary, sexy, psychedelic misadventures, criminal escapades, space opera, and multidimensional chaos.
