From the 2023 iHeartradio podcast, award-nominated creators of Awakened Underground, Cody Blue & Tanya Dahl, team up again to bring you an all-new weekly psycho-spiritual podcast: ACID FOR SQUARES. Available on YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts: https://linktr.ee/acidforsquares SYNOPSIS: The year is 2024. The US government has finally acknowledged the existence of UFOs and its lengthy coverup. Doctors worldwide are championing psychedelics as a breakthrough cure for the mental health crisis. And scientists have proven that everything is made of energy and what we perceive with our senses is merely an illusion, leading many to believe that we are living in some cosmic simulation. More and more each day, modern science is proving what Eastern mystics and indigenous shamans have been trying to tell us for millennia, but mainstream media continues to ignore these voices instead of amplifying them. Enter the ACID FOR SQUARES PODCAST, where hosts Tanya Dahl and Cody Blue take you on a mind-bending ride through the unknown. Each week, they will interview leading experts in the fields of both science and spirituality, embarking on a journey to uncover the mysteries of the universe and the power of the human potential and prove once and for all that truth really is stranger than fiction.

In episode 4, Cody sits down with Jesse Gould - a retired Army Ranger and president of Heroic Hearts Project. After serving three tours in Afghanistan, Jesse founded the Heroic Hearts Project to spearhead the acceptance and use of ayahuasca therapy as a means of addressing the current mental health crisis among veterans. (Time stamps below) Heroic Hearts Project (HHP) is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit that connects military veterans struggling with trauma to psychedelic therapy options including ayahuasca, psilocybin, ibogaine, and ketamine treatments in combination with professional coaching and integration. HHP provides these veterans, who have often exhausted all of the resources offered by the Department of Veteran Affairs and don't know where to turn, with education about and access to these alternative healing modalities. HHP's mission is to restore hope and empower each veteran in his or her own healing process. Secondarily, HHP aims to contribute to the growing base of psychedelic research, to educate the public on the potential of psychedelics based on the outcomes of this research, and to advocate for policy changes enabling increased and more equitable access to psychedelic therapies.
