Liner notes

Live from the Convergence! We are broadcasting from the Meow Wolf Denver parking lot on its official opening day. Vince Kadlubek joins us to discuss the "absurdity" of Meow Wolf, the power of exploration in unknown environments, and how a social group of artists became a global phenomenon. Then, we sit down with autonostic mycologist Travis Tyler Flook to discuss the science of psilocybin, the "entourage effect" in mushrooms, and the incredible history of genetic preservation. Plus, a live look at the opening day crowds and the debut of the "Done Deal" Meow Wolf connection.
