Despite being the son of a pharmacist turned wine professional, I did not know the purpose of an Entheogen. Ross Halleck set me straight,so much so, that after defining an entheogen, the value of the consumption of wine became clearer. Ross Halleck doesn't just make wine—he might just ask you to close your eyes and seek the divine within a single glass. In this episode of Wine Talks, you'll be swept past the typical vineyard tales and deep into the spiritual and mystical roots of wine itself. You'll learn how Ross stumbled into the wine trade not through family legacy or grand ambition, but with the curiosity of a seeker and a penchant for unearthing life's mysteries. Paul and Ross unravel why, for some, wine is more than a social lubricant or status symbol; it's an “entheogen”—a conduit to something sacred. Discover how the trappings of wine culture, from magazine scores to over-intellectualization, can miss the magic entirely, and why Ross is on a mission to return wine to its ancient role: bringing people together, not driving them apart. You'll step inside his West Sebastopol vineyard and hear why he believes winning top awards means little if you can't connect with people's hearts. The conversation flows from digital reviews and the democratization of taste, to the pitfalls of marketing wine as pure commerce, to modern-day plant medicine ceremonies designed to foster self-discovery, belonging, and reverence. As the layers peel back, you'll come away with a fresh perspective on wine—not just as a beverage, but as a timeless link to the sacred, the mysterious, and the collective human story. And if you've ever wondered why a certain glass makes you feel something inexplicable, or why wine alone among drinks is revered across cultures and epochs, this episode offers more than an explanation—it offers an invitation to experience the “vine intervention” for yourself.

Episode 104: Entheogens with Christian Rasmussen Ethnobotanicals are a fascinating and diverse group of plants that have played an important role in human cultures for centuries. From providing us with food and shelter to medicine and spirituality, plants have been an integral part of our lives since the beginning of human civilization. Entheogens are drugs/plants/medicine that give you a spiritual experience. The word entheogen literally means “creating the divine within,” and is derived from the Greek roots en (within) theo (divine) and gen (creates). Entheogens have been used by indigenous peoples for millennia for “healing, knowledge, creativity, and spiritual connection. Christian Rasmussen is the owner of Minnesota Nice Ethnobotanicals, the largest Amanita muscaria retailer, wholesaler and importer in the country. After Amanita healed his brain while going through a grueling benzodiazepine withdrawal, Christian formed MN Nice to bring Amanita to the states. He's collected thousands of anecdotal reports about amanita healing everything from anxiety, insomnia, and depression to more complex physical issues like neurological late-stage Lyme disease. He is dedicated to educating about the mushrooms' healing, spiritual, and practical potential, and giving people access to this most iconic, yet most misunderstood mushroom in the world. We spend our time talking about Amanita Muscaria along with some other ethnobotanicals and entheogens and their healing effects as well as mind expanding aspects.

Greater than 90% of the people we treat get better. But, having the right plan for therapy will greatly increase your odds of success. What is an Entheogen?An entheogen is a mind-altering substance that helps people develop spiritually. Ketamine causes a profoundly mind-altering experience that expands consciousness, understanding, and connectivity when used with intention in the right therapeutic setting. Why do some Patients Not Respond to Ketamine? Some people do not respond to ketamine treatments. Most often there is an identifiable reason. Some of these reasons include:- Abusing substances actively while undergoing therapy (e.g. going home and drinking a bottle or two of wine after therapy)- Not enough treatments received (major illness requires more therapy, sometimes > 6 treatments for response)- Trauma or Mindset roadblocks that prevent patients from continuing therapy.- Some people just don't respond. This may be due to their underlying biology (estimated < 2%) Why do > 90% of Ketamine Patients Experience BenefitKetamine does 4 amazing things that help people get their lives back on track.

They have established a library with strains as strong as 4.4% tryptamine content. In establishing our library of over 100 strains of fungi we've established analytic techniques to determine tryptamine contents at home for up to 2% tryptamine and new methods using each HPLC's and Q NMR's machines. Our most unique offering is strain of mycelium that we stumbled upon in our breeding process, this particular strain produces psilocybin. We then took this strain and grew it in a bioreactor producing psilocybin in one-week versus the traditional eight-week life cycle of psilocybin.Now we embark on commercialising our findings and bring them to market their legal jurisdiction permits.

Media Roots Radio on Psychedelics: Episode 3: Terrence McKenna, Ott, DMT, Pharmahuasca, Heroic Dosing, Utopianism & the Entheogen New Age Abby and Robbie dive into the psychonauts that repopularized psychedelics in the 80s and 90s, focusing on the brilliant visionary riddler Terrence McKenna and his wild theories––from Stoned Ape to TimeWave Zero––his promotion of heroic dosing, his mainstreaming of DMT and the notion of DMT 'machine elves.' They explore the complicated nature of McKenna's legacy, including the pitfalls of the utopianism that he and others elevated about heroic dosing. They also cover the lesser known Johnathan Ott, a chemist who coined the term entheogen and pushed for the production of a Pharmahuasca, a pharmaceutical pill version of Ayahuasca.

Recorded 2/2/22Questions/Topics:What is Plant Medicine?In this conversation we are discussing psychoactive plants. There are plants that have properties in them such as magic mushrooms (psilocybin ), Ayahuasca (DMT - similar to what you see in LSD except occurring naturally),peyote -a cactus (mescaline ) and Iboga (Ibogaine) that are used for journeying and for physical, mental, and emotional healing. Ceremonially these entheogens are used for spiritual healing. Entheogen - Naturally occurring psychoactive substances that grow on their own.Plant medicine is different from recreational drugs right?What do you mean when you say the plants have mind-altering properties?If it truly helps people connect to their spirituality, helps break unhealthy addictions, heals PTSD and depression, why is it illegal in the US?Since Will and Jada Smith publicly mentioned journeying with Ayahuasca it seems to be more popular. Can you tell us about this plant medicine?**FUN FACT: All of the aforementioned plant medicines are legal in Oregon.What does "journeying" mean?Are there some people who should stay away from plant medicine?What can people who are currently on mental health medications do if they are interested in plant medicine? Is there an option for them?Where can someone safely have a journey?Where can I get more information?How did you learn so much about plant medicine?How can you work FamU in this conversation? (Not a real question but somehow FamU was mentioned)How can one determine if plant medicine is for them? Guest notes: Quotes:"When you have research hospitals like John Hoskins Hospitals, University Hospitals micro-dosing psilocybin, ayahuasca, ibogaine for their psychiatric patients and for their clients and patients with addictions and cancer and they are saying, 'Look at how efficacious this is'; It's only a matter of time until it is legal like marijuana.
