Not sure how he got 5 million views as a comic. The stories are interesting but, nothing anyone hasn't heard from their Aunt Mary. I mean the guy couldn't make me laugh, even if I smoked a pound of weed. Pretty good story, even though everyone has heard the same for 30 years.
Why is everyone complaining about the crowd being "dead"? This guy is not really doing stand-up, it's more of entertaining storytelling. Much slower paced, less laughs, but so fascinating. Love his podcast
Because it’s not funny. And it’s self important. We all experimented with psychedelics in our youth. Imagine still telling stories of your high school acid trips at Duncan’s age.
I remember walking into my bestfriends bedroom and saying "hey, I'm really sorry, I don't want to be that guy who ruins the night but I have to be honest, I'm dying. You guys are intoxicated so I'm going to walk to the hospital or, if you guys want, we can call an ambulance but I'm dying" they all started cracking up and soothing my fears by complimenting me (which worked and took my mind off dying) and finally when I sobered up, they said "man you're too nice, you don't have to apologize if you think you're dying, that's serious" haha I am canadian though so it's natural instinct
Dude every time I’ve had a bad trip there’s always a point where you can narrow down exactly where it went wrong in the trip. His friend saying “my face is melting off my head” is definitely the turning point there
My last bad trip went south when I puked, for whatever reason puking scared the fuck out of me in that moment, and for the next 3 hours I was in hell thinking I was surely dying.
@@aperolldirtrat9604 …. There is ALWAYS a “reason “ for everything…. And there are no bad trips… work through it and ask what your conscience is saying. LSD is not to be used lightly … it isn’t a toy.
@Notmy Realname i know exactly what you’re talking about. However, that just means you need to learn how to stay present, so that you don’t get lost in thought loops like that. So, meditate. Also, psychedelics, specifically LSD and psilocybin, just amplify the current experience. If someone tend to get loopy on psychs, then they probably do that a lot sober too, just not to the extent where they completely lose themselves in thought. I used to be one of those people, and i still am to a lesser extent.
Absolutely. My very last time doing Psychedelics I fully saw a new dimension to all shapes and environments and just accepted it after the initial scare of never coming back.
I smoked salvia once and felt like strings were being pulled thru my entire body. I felt each one go in and pull out all thru out my body and arms n legs. It was scary but at the same time was an experience I'll never forget
jarod gray Salvia is the one drug I’ve told myself I’d never do again, I hate how I feel on it and how unpredictably people act after smoking it. DMT is way better in every way.
The worst is descending into Dante's Inferno on LSD, finding out that you've been in it all your life, and all your friends are hidden angels and demons, and it's up to you to decipher who's there to help you, and who's there to bring about your downfall. That's the worst kind of trip I ever had.
@@jennifercrouch8070 It definitely was a bad one. So bad, it messed with me for years afterwards. Eventually, I came out of the experience a lot more mentally resilient to superstition, and realized what a valuable tool critical thinking is.
Yes same here I went thru something similar...you weren't tripping 100s of ppl see the same thing. your entering the dark realm which is parallel to us because were right above hell and angels, demons, luciferians, blood drinkers (elite) there real. People on drugs have been seeing them for years because when you alternate your mind you can spiritually see the darkness because your close to death. Spirits can enter humans because were open vessels so you will see ppl you know but it's not them at that moment. Once you've awakened you will be watched on both sides and demonically attacked but call on God He will save you everytime..he fights for you don't put your trust in man put it in Christ and you will be a powerful weapon because you've now seen the enemy. 🙏👑
I don't care whether Duncan is funny or not, I love his stories, his podcast's, and his views on life. Same thing with Rogan. I would rather listen to their ideologies, and takes on different things than their stand up comedy. This was a great story by Duncan
dt089 Absolutely. Anyone who doesn't like Duncan Trussell....isn't anyone I want to be around. That's pretty much a deal-breaker for me. Duncan's just too cool of a hominid to not like. This was a great story....but only 0.1% of the guy's full potential. To all those reading this: Listen to his podcast! Trust me....you won't regret it for a second.
Yeah, he didnt get many laughs from the audience, and i didnt really laugh out loud, but he has a gift for clever, witty, poetic and beautiful metaphors and analogies. I love this dude. And he's very often funny as fuck.
Haha I was fine guys. Thanks lol was just funny how right after I peaked this came up. Lucky for me, I had nothing to worry about. It was all just a string in my throat.
Holy shit he's such a great story teller. The way he navigates through his metaphors is truly beautiful. It's hard to not be happy or grateful while listening to this dude. Also, some of you guys need to realize that this what the show is about, telling stories, not throwing out punch line after punch line trying to knock the crowd out
If your willing to read this, I'm pretty sure I have a way better story than him. I did LSD 25 about ten years ago, was living in a cheap efficiency, and some guy I met in the apartment complex told me he had obtained LSD 25 from a gay guy he knew who worked at a government job or something like that. He actually thought I was so cool, that he gave me a free vial of the stuff. You could tell this was legit, it had all kinds of weird stuff imprinted on it, and the glass at the tip of where the opening of the vial was had been fused together. Definitely not something some random loser could do. The first night I broke off the fused glass top to try it, my ex wife decided to take some and she had a terrible trip. (She took too much, and it was just a little circle of the stuff that she put on the tip of her finger before she consumed it.) I did the typical "calm down baby", " I love you'', and "everything is going be to be ok" routine that people do to calm down their friends when they're having a bad trip. She eventually calmed down and started enjoying it. Fast forward to the next day, and I decided it was my turn. I had already told a buddy of mine that I had a vial, and he came along to try some before going to his house, which was about 7-10 miles away from my shit apartment. We all dab some of the stuff on our finger tips. My girl puts a much smaller amount on her finger this time, I put about the same as her, and my buddy takes a much bigger Dab on his finger. (At the Time I didn't realize he couldn't handle that amount, I mean he did so many hard drugs compared to me I figured he would be fine.) So he leaves, and after about 30 minutes or so, I begin my trip. I was on the couch with the wife, and I remember me and her turning into lines/blobs of energy and other than me and her, everything in the room was not there. Me and her were lit up and glowing, yet we were surrounded by complete blackness. (I knew i still in my apartment, but I saw only me and her.) Then me and her in our "energy forms" wrapped around be each other like the same way twizzlers candy or a DNA strand wraps around itself. We both kept getting brighter and brighter until all of the sudden, I was alone, and in a strange new place. I was walking forward, and surrounded by what appeared to be white light or some kind of clouds/fog. Every now and then I would catch a glimpse of a some kind of objects or structures like the ground I was walking on for example, but for the most part I was walking on clouds or fog surrounded by just.. White light. But I don't remember thinking it was too bright or anything. Suddenly, from the mist emerged a strikingly beautiful blonde hair blue eyed woman. She was wearing a flowing white robe / dress. Around her neck, she wore a golden necklace in the shape of a crescent Moon. She was perfect. To this day I've never seen a woman with such a perfect face and body features, but the main difference between her and anyone else I've ever seen was the simple fact that she towered over me. To this day when I describe how tall she was, I always tell people she was 14 feet tall, but this is a number that for some reason my brain automatically came to, so yeah, no idea why, but she was exactly 14 feet tall. Emanating from her body was an energy of love. It's hard to describe, but all of a sudden I realized that I loved her more than anything in my life at the time. Yet, it wasn't the typical, "I want to fuck her brains out!" Kinda love. I mean actually loving someone just because they are so awesome. I had no sexual attraction to her whatsoever. We smiled at each other, and the first words that came out of my mouth were, "So, uh, who are you?" She did a beautiful little laugh and again smiled before replying with, "I am who I am, and you are who you are." Then we started talking about the world, we talked about humanity, why things are the way they are, basically any and every topic was covered. We talked for hours, and when she spoke, she would RHYME all of her words and sentences. It was comparable to how William Shakespeare wrote/ spoke in Iambic pentameter. Her words had energy in them, and the energy would soothe my soul. Very hard to explain but hopefully people reading this have done acid before. Hard to explain LSD experiences to people that have never done acid. We talked for hours but the only significant things I remember from the conversation after sobering up were: "humans were meant to be more". and, "This life is a test". I eventually return back to the couch and my reality, and I'm having a great time. Still high and enjoying myself. However, Remember My friend who was at the house earlier? His girlfriend calls to tell me the he is freaking out, dropped her 6 year old kid on the ground, and was tearing shit apart at the house. So I go to save him and try to calm him down. Keep in mind I'm driving 10 miles on LSD 25. I don't really remember the drive, but I remember showing up at his house to find his pitbull roaming the front yard frantically, and to the front door being wide open. Of course his girlfriend is no longer in the house, she tells me he is inside and I go to help him. I enter the house and find stuff strewn about. I call out to him, and I noticed that his sliding glass door that leads to the back yard is broken. (Apparently he ran through it). He eventually shows up naked at the broken glass door and starts saying "I love you, I hate you". (Something he said to his gf all the Time.) He is bloody from running through the glass door, and gives me a hug. I freak out, thinking he's a serial killer for some reason (I was high), and I proceeded to get in my car and drive off before the cops come and arrest me for "being and accessory to murder"(again I'm high people...) I left my wife over there at his house in the front yard with Tammy, his GF hahaha! I never even once thought about her, as I am now having a bad trip, and I'm stuck in a terrible loop when I think my buddy Chad is a serial killer. I'm now driving back to my apartment, at night, no glasses 👓, and I'm on Lsd 25. On the way, blood is dripping through my car's ceiling and onto my hands. (The blood actually came from my buddy hugging me) I start seeing lights from the sky! "Oh my God." I thought, "the cops are chasing me in helicopters!" I even heard the helicopter sounds and everything. (These are called ''auditory hallucinations") The car next to me had their window down, and at that time, the walkie talkie "beep" was a popular ringtone. So I figure it must be a cop. Realizing the jig is up, I roll down my window and tell the ''police officer" this... "I'm sorry for running from you guys, but at least give me the decency to pull over into the gas station before you arrest me." Right after I said that, the police officer's face morphed into a young, confused and frightened black man. He was probably on the phone telling his friend some crazy white guy was fucked up. I park at the Valero and realize the the car is tilting sideways while I'm driving, like i was driving on an uneven surface. ( It wasn't) once I started driving again, I get lost on the way back the apartment and talk to another black guy whose face kept morphing while he is giving me directions. I eventually somehow get home, and I'm still stuck in the whole serial killer I'm getting arrested mode. I gently pet my dog 🐕 telling him that I'm going to jail and that I love him. I just remember that I feel like my life was over, and THEN I THREW AWAY THE VIAL OF ACID! NOT SURE WHY, but I was high and scared. Some other strange things happened after that. I noticed the door that leads to my restroom is really small. Like 3x5 inches haha. The other thing was that everything around me was normal except for my dog. He was moving like 50 miles an hour. Like he was a blur. For example, a walk from my bed to the kitchen would take like 4 seconds, but my dog could move all around the apartment in the same amount of time. He looked like the super hero "The Flash.'' he was moving so fast he was leaving behind "tracers". Anyways, I get a call from my wife asking where I am, she said everything is good and I calm down. I drove back ten more miles back to Chad's house and learn he was arrested. He was bloody, naked, and ran into the street, getting hit by a car, did a flip, and after Landing on his feet, ran into a Randall's parking lot, where he was surrounded by cop cars, and subsequently tazed by cops until he became he unconscious. He didn't go to jail, because interestingly enough, his GF Tammy told the cops that he ate "Halloween candy that was laced with drugs." I forgot to mention this all happened on Halloween... Anyways long story short, later down the line this same buddy of mine ended up sleeping with my ex wife while we were broken up. I ended up having a child with this woman, and I can't by help but think about how both our bodies turned into energy and wrapped around each other.) I also had the typical "I am everything, but I am nothing." moment as well. Well..... That's my LSD 25 story. Hope you learned something. I know I did. I haven't hallucinated since. Correction, I did it one other time after that, but whatever, God bless you all, and don't marry American women. They are all brainwashed by feminism, and 80 percent of them are whores. (I'm American unfortunately, I know these things.)
If you've done acid before, you'll know that this story is probably completely true. You'll also know the beauty of his experience and the revelations he had.
Yup. I was vaguely familiar w/ him from Rogan's podcast (seen lots of clips and maybe one full episode) but Midnight Gospel made me a fan for sure. One of the best shows I've seen in a while.
napukapu Duncan's way _way_ more influential and interesting than a mere Harvard professor already. Absolutely love the guy. So happy to see him get a bit 'o' fame via Comedy Central. He deserves it more than any comedian I know.
7:00 I keep watching that guy in the lower left part of the screen....just to the right of that water bottle. He doesn't even _crack a smile_ throughout this entire set. Wtf? I do not understand people like that. How uptight and normal and boring do you have to be to listen to a story like this.....and maintain a straight poker face throughout? He just seems....dead inside.
“It’s only a string in your throat, you’re gonna be fine.” This bit has helped me through the worst breakup I’ve ever experienced. Stand up comedy saved my life.
Duncan was my camp counselor as a kid at a place called Camp Pinnacle in NC. He was the greatest story teller! also an good canoeing instructor. it is awesome to see him on here! Howhow Duncan!
Would you do it now? Why or why not? Any difference as a result of age? (I've never done any illegal drugs, I have no clue so I live vicariously through others)
Justin Lelbach a friend of mine around the same age told me he doesn’t mess with them much anymore because it’s a more intense experience when your older (his words not mine). Although I did give him a few grams of shrooms last Christmas and he said he enjoyed them
I heard the dude's voice on Midnight Gospel, then I heard his voice through a gillie suit on Joe Rogan's podcast, and then I finallt decided "I have to see what this homie looks like" and let me tell you, not what I expected.
dude, aren't you the same dude on other youtube videos complaining/agonizing about experiences/revelations on acid or awakenings? i've seen you comment on other videos, about solipsism etc...
Yeah- kinda, but I thought it was hilarious. I didn’t see the Dead, well, with Jerry anyway, but we hit the lot scene in 96 and it was insane. He’s not lying about any of it.
I’ve been having existential bad trips all my life without hallucinogens. Other hard drugs have been heavily involved and the occasional psychedelics but mostly just my mind almost constantly feeling violated and traumatized from the hard life I once led. Somehow this compelling story relates those same feelings in me, including the ending revelation that there’s never any reason to worry.
It was crazy before mandatory sentencing made acid too sketchy to run, carry or deal. It was pretty dope and the kind hits were always around when the Dead were around.
I've communicated telepathically with my best friend for 4 hours while listening to all of Fleetwood Mac over and over and over again. It was amazing. It definitely makes you understand that everything is flowing. Our energy is moving with everything and everyone else. Its life changing.
Right! Everytime I hear him I just think of midnight gospel, his character matches his voice so well. I’m glad I’ve found his videos because I enjoyed MG so much
It's funny he said grilled cheese sandwiches. When I used to trip on acid when i was a teenager, my friends and i used make cheese sandwiches at the end of the trip to get something back in our stomachs after "tripping face" for 18hours. We called them "face sandwiches"
I only trip with my buds like once a year now but we made a tradition of always getting dominos pan pizzas as soon as we come down enough to operate the delivery app and sign the receipt lol, maybe something just inherently cathartic about greasy bread and cheese the same way it hits after a night of drinking
Greatness knows no bounds. Duncan crosses over from comedy into deep spirituality and chaotic modern drug mysticism without a single hiccup. From sheer laughter to profound existential awe, all interwoven with the idiosyncratic and absolutely beautiful tone of his particular cognitive outlook on life. Duncan, you're the man.
The Grateful Dead music will take you to the rings of Saturn and the next song will bring you back to America sitting beside the campfire. Truly they are an American classic ...
Well everything is everything and also nothing so quit trying to make sense of a senseless existence do drugs have fun live how ever you want and try to help the people you love do that too godspeed my man
My dad was a deadhead in the 90’s that got by selling grilled cheese and vegetarian chili, I can only hope Mr. Midnight Gospel ate my dad’s grilled cheese
+gears5336 I met him on his first stop of his You Are God tour. he is exactly the same in person. after the comedy show there was a line of 80 people and he talked to every single one of them. kinda was like a therapy session.
He's one of my favorites. So glad "Midnight Gospel" popped off. I'm currently 38 years old, and the older I get the more I realize, what I don't know, but I DO know, if Duncan Trussell went to the same high school as me, he'd be in the same small group of friends.
Seriously one of my favorite of Duncan’s stories. A lie can be more dangerous than a knife. Misinformation is STILL rampant in this country. I am praying that lsd becomes decriminalized because it WILL not hurt you. Only you can hurt you.
If I could only do one thing to make a difference in the trajectory of human culture, I would choose to invoke insight the way that Trussel and Rogan have done to me. As a kid who grew up in a town of 600 people, attended 18 years of catholic schools, and served time in the military, the ideologies bestowed through those environments were overwhelming. Adopting any one of these inherent ideologies would have been nothing but detrimental. This was all trumped by the objective reasoning of these two gentlemen and their brilliant acquaintances. Thank you for teaching me it's ok to be skeptical and to question everything. I believe this to be essential to the healthy evolution of thought.
Wow, deep respect to you for realizing the mental prison in your mind and breaking out of it. Sure Duncan and Rogan has influenced you in waking up, but any advice can only truly resonate if you already know, on some level, the advice to be true. There are thousands of people just like you who run into these mind-opening influenced but never even get slightly touched by them and they end up spending the rest of their lives in a mental prison. Respect!
You, me, and a bunch of other people have had very similar shifts in perspective and consciousness thanks largely to Joe and Duncan. Everytime I run into someone who really doesn't have their shit together, I honestly think about what Duncan and Joe kind of taught me, and what part of that I can convey to other people, because like you said, this kind of stuff could literally change the world for the better if we could just spread it around more.
I used to be a born again Christian for 10 years. I eventually reasoned my way out of it. Afterwards searching online led me to the likes of the JRE podcast, Duncan Trussell Family Hour and others. These podcasts and discussions have opened my mind so much it's priceless. I'm glad others are experiencing the same.
Found out I have stage 3 Seminoma, happened to watch this, literally laughed my ass off (it's somewhere in the next room) as if the last 10 seconds were a personal punchline just for me. Fantastic.
Man one time I was on some really good shrooms. I saw symbols like that imprinted in the clouds. Shit was crazy. Also my friend thought a tree was falling on him. I laughed so hard.
"...not because we liked The Dead, but because we loved LSD." If you're ever in Santa Cruz, or the Bay area in general, and someone invites you to a Dead Dance, just go. If you have the right energy you'll get free drugs every time : )
theres a moment in one of his podcasts with Joe Rogan where Joe says The Grateful Dead suck and Duncan defends them saying they are good and you must have not heard them on acid and invited him over to his house to take acid and listen to the dead. i think he says the dead is bad because its one of the only funny things in the story most people can relate to because not many people listen to the dead
By lightyears man. I actually didn't give a shit when I lost my virginity. Wasn't nothing to talk about. But acid...? But 4aco dmt....? I could go on for hours
I was at the grateful dead in LA circa 1988 and it was one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had. Its true what they say about the concerts they were a gateway to the real deal.
I remember this 90's acid it was good too. Never got in a show but the parking lot was the bestest. Bart Simpson acid man 12 hits lol. Love the old dead show parking lot miss the lots
Snowman. Layed so thick it had crystallized. Or Felix way to much Felix. I got so far out on it I ended up cutting pages into snowflakes and giving the cutouts to anyone around. Hung one of them on my rearview mirror. It went with the bus when I sold it. Never told the buyer what it was just thought it would be a big surprise if they ever tasted it on the curious.
Just poppin in to say we love you Duncan, still killing it only ever onwards and upwards, forever taking the JRE to the next level with your appearances, love live da TRUSSELL
So he mentions seeing hieroglyphs and symbols. Most intense trip I had was on something called 2CE. I had 5 hits and within an hour, I saw those symbols. And at that time, I determined it was the spiritual and metaphysical structure of the universe.
I remember the last time I took acid. I was alone in my room going through the peak and I closed my lights and sat on my bed forget where I was and thought I died. I had never felt so peaceful in my life and started laughing super hard. I then realized I was still in my room. Started laughing even harder because I legit thought I died on acid. 🤣🤣
I was house sitting for a family with a bunch on Grateful Dead posters everywhere. I found some sugar cubes in the freezer and thought, huh, that's strange. I licked my finger & dipped it in the loose grains in the bag. I thought, yup, that's sugar in the freezer all right. An hour later, I'm like, I feel like mushrooms are coming on. Holy shit! The SUGAR!! The Cherry Garcia. The Woodstock album. I'm on acid now.
It could've been any amount in increments of ten lol. Fraggle hit my boy with a 30 piece and dude left earth for quite a while. And really it means like if you have a sheet and a partial strip on the edge like take the remainder to make the rest of the sheet even in numbers of ten
@@drakusmorgan6770 couple days of tripping and then weeks and months kinda gradually came back. He's one of my best friends still today. He's alright. Lol
I sat on mushrooms and ecstacy in front of all my fake gangster 19 year old friends and knelt down and proclaimed i now believe in god and thanked him on my knees that he could create something as beautiful and perfect as the feeling i felt on mushrooms and ecstacy. That was like maybe 1999-2002ish lol. They didnt even ask me about it the next day lol. That was powerful ecstacy lol.
I just had a religious experience 2 days ago on lsd man... My friend dad just passed and we dropped some after the funeral I swear I was fine like walking on sun Ray's then I swear I died and the lord brought me back and I saw my friends dad and he was happy I told my friend (he was also trippin but he pulled me through) and I told him 1st I thank God 2nd I thanked him. I was literally paralyzed for a while there thought I was gonna know what was goin on but be in a chair the rest of my life! I will NEVER forget April 23rd 2019! His dad wasn't religious neither is my friend but he didn't say a negative thing!
It's true what you have experienced, so to recognise a higher power through emotion like that it can be religious. Or you can drop the God part and just be grateful of that feeling. My point here being that even though the emotion is God like, it will never proof the existence of a God other than that feeling. I would conclude that if you found a other act such of that could be described as a miracle it should produce you the same kind of xstatic feeling. I deduct this it this way because you were not in control o yourself in that state of yours, so if God would come about acting in our universe you should gain xtc without drugs. I doubt that any of the religions can offer such a state even with mass gatherings and I bet if I would go out in such parties and distribute drogas like lsd and mdma, hidden in freely taken communal snacks - there would be a revelation of a difrent kind of God that day. I would separate their realities and attach them in to that moment through me. I would hack their minds and give them a true sence of free will. Freedom to believe in God and continue on their path for ever knowing their limitless potential to grow or the later.
Same happened to me veerji , i grew up hating religion but it just took one trip of lsd that changed me forever , i was more calm and accepting of things like religion,spiritually and alot of other stuff moreover, not just that but anyone or anything that held onto a different or even conflicting belief system than me , All of those problems seemed way too small infront of the experience i had on this drug , it kinda humbled me down

At 8:27. Is that Ginny from Harry Potter in the down right corner?
Not sure how he got 5 million views as a comic. The stories are interesting but, nothing anyone hasn't heard from their Aunt Mary. I mean the guy couldn't make me laugh, even if I smoked a pound of weed. Pretty good story, even though everyone has heard the same for 30 years.
Noneof Yourbusiness check out midnight gospel 🤩
Why is everyone complaining about the crowd being "dead"?
This guy is not really doing stand-up, it's more of entertaining storytelling. Much slower paced, less laughs, but so fascinating.
Love his podcast

Yoooo I literally just commented basically the same thing and scrolled down to find this gem
Honestly same
not hard. ted talks are for glorps.
I didn’t want to disrupt my friends evening, by *dying*
I remember walking into my bestfriends bedroom and saying "hey, I'm really sorry, I don't want to be that guy who ruins the night but I have to be honest, I'm dying. You guys are intoxicated so I'm going to walk to the hospital or, if you guys want, we can call an ambulance but I'm dying" they all started cracking up and soothing my fears by complimenting me (which worked and took my mind off dying) and finally when I sobered up, they said "man you're too nice, you don't have to apologize if you think you're dying, that's serious" haha I am canadian though so it's natural instinct
that was extremely relatable
thats acid thinking there. must've been really tripping if he really thought he was gonna die and thought like that
That's a very acid sense of humour hahahaha
Like a pet animal he went to go die alone lmfaoo

yep I had a bad acid trip two days ago and it all went wrong when one of the friends I was with started hysterically sobbing for no reason
There are no “bad” trips; only information that must be dealt with.
@@aperolldirtrat9604 …. There is ALWAYS a “reason “ for everything…. And there are no bad trips… work through it and ask what your conscience is saying. LSD is not to be used lightly … it isn’t a toy.
@Notmy Realname i know exactly what you’re talking about. However, that just means you need to learn how to stay present, so that you don’t get lost in thought loops like that. So, meditate.
Also, psychedelics, specifically LSD and psilocybin, just amplify the current experience. If someone tend to get loopy on psychs, then they probably do that a lot sober too, just not to the extent where they completely lose themselves in thought. I used to be one of those people, and i still am to a lesser extent.
"I didn't want to disrupt my friends' wonderful evening... by dying in front of them."
That's strangely relatable.
Holy shit right?
I got chills
totally. absolutely perfect
Yeah we're just vibing with the universe
I'm addicted to pigger nussy 🤠
People who haven’t done acid don’t understand the magic of this story and his theory of us just being strings. Shit is real
Absolutely.
My very last time doing Psychedelics I fully saw a new dimension to all shapes and environments and just accepted it after the initial scare of never coming back.
I smoked salvia once and felt like strings were being pulled thru my entire body. I felt each one go in and pull out all thru out my body and arms n legs. It was scary but at the same time was an experience I'll never forget
I've never done acid, but I know what he's talking about. I've just never felt it being so real.
jarod gray Salvia is the one drug I’ve told myself I’d never do again, I hate how I feel on it and how unpredictably people act after smoking it. DMT is way better in every way.

The worst is descending into Dante's Inferno on LSD, finding out that you've been in it all your life, and all your friends are hidden angels and demons, and it's up to you to decipher who's there to help you, and who's there to bring about your downfall. That's the worst kind of trip I ever had.
That wasn't a trip 👹👑🙏👼
@@jennifercrouch8070 It definitely was a bad one. So bad, it messed with me for years afterwards. Eventually, I came out of the experience a lot more mentally resilient to superstition, and realized what a valuable tool critical thinking is.
Yes same here I went thru something similar...you weren't tripping 100s of ppl see the same thing. your entering the dark realm which is parallel to us because were right above hell and angels, demons, luciferians, blood drinkers (elite) there real. People on drugs have been seeing them for years because when you alternate your mind you can spiritually see the darkness because your close to death. Spirits can enter humans because were open vessels so you will see ppl you know but it's not them at that moment. Once you've awakened you will be watched on both sides and demonically attacked but call on God He will save you everytime..he fights for you don't put your trust in man put it in Christ and you will be a powerful weapon because you've now seen the enemy. 🙏👑
I mean that sounds pretty legit to me man look into people’s eyes you can see demonic entity’s 👀 stay woke
Jennifer Crouch facts respect man you’re my kind of person ❗️🐐
What I learned:
LSD is safer than denim
Eating denim would quite litearlly be worse for your body than lsd lol, mental health welllllllllll
Deadass lmao
@@isaiahexile lsd can really fuck up people who alredy have schizofrena, it's not compleatly harmless for everyone
I thought the lesson was if you're choking on denim reach for nitrous oxide?
Anthrax in your mailbox if you’re a schizo you’re already fucked
I don't care whether Duncan is funny or not, I love his stories, his podcast's, and his views on life. Same thing with Rogan. I would rather listen to their ideologies, and takes on different things than their stand up comedy. This was a great story by Duncan
dt089 Absolutely. Anyone who doesn't like Duncan Trussell....isn't anyone I want to be around. That's pretty much a deal-breaker for me. Duncan's just too cool of a hominid to not like. This was a great story....but only 0.1% of the guy's full potential. To all those reading this: Listen to his podcast! Trust me....you won't regret it for a second.
Yeah, he didnt get many laughs from the audience, and i didnt really laugh out loud, but he has a gift for clever, witty, poetic and beautiful metaphors and analogies.
I love this dude. And he's very often funny as fuck.
I feel the same way brother!
It's like a different type of entertainment with subtle comedy within it.
The Duncan Trussell Family Hour is fantastic.
someone needs to do an animation for thissss
I want to learn animation just so i can see it.
Absolutely!
Get the people behind "Superjail!" They're good at trippy animation that looks like people on drugs were involved.
He's doing a show!
Oh, hey Nicole! Aka Pigsbum 53^^
I love how people weren’t cracking up the whole time, but intensely listening to a great storyteller
tripping on acid. sees "Dying on Acid"...yea, let's see what that's about. couldn't hurt.
CraigTheWorst be careful
Craig can handle it 👍
Stay off your phone or electronics. Sucks the magic right out of psychs, at least for me.
Haha I was fine guys. Thanks lol was just funny how right after I peaked this came up. Lucky for me, I had nothing to worry about. It was all just a string in my throat.
@Phantom Alpha sweet! I have fans!
Holy shit he's such a great story teller. The way he navigates through his metaphors is truly beautiful. It's hard to not be happy or grateful while listening to this dude. Also, some of you guys need to realize that this what the show is about, telling stories, not throwing out punch line after punch line trying to knock the crowd out
And it's on comedy central so thinking it would be funny is expected ass
@@KC-nd7nt You realize comedy has more nuances than just "Setup Joke, Punchline, Har Har Har"
Acid will do that to you
K C ur stupid
That was one of the best acid stories I've ever heared, so beautifully spoken. Takes me back
If your willing to read this, I'm pretty sure I have a way better story than him.
I did LSD 25 about ten years ago, was living in a cheap efficiency, and some guy I met in the apartment complex told me he had obtained LSD 25 from a gay guy he knew who worked at a government job or something like that.
He actually thought I was so cool, that he gave me a free vial of the stuff. You could tell this was legit, it had all kinds of weird stuff imprinted on it, and the glass at the tip of where the opening of the vial was had been fused together.
Definitely not something some random loser could do.
The first night I broke off the fused glass top to try it, my ex wife decided to take some and she had a terrible trip. (She took too much, and it was just a little circle of the stuff that she put on the tip of her finger before she consumed it.)
I did the typical "calm down baby", " I love you'', and "everything is going be to be ok" routine that people do to calm down their friends when they're having a bad trip.
She eventually calmed down and started enjoying it. Fast forward to the next day, and I decided it was my turn. I had already told a buddy of mine that I had a vial, and he came along to try some before going to his house, which was about 7-10 miles away from my shit apartment.
We all dab some of the stuff on our finger tips. My girl puts a much smaller amount on her finger this time, I put about the same as her, and my buddy takes a much bigger Dab on his finger. (At the Time I didn't realize he couldn't handle that amount, I mean he did so many hard drugs compared to me I figured he would be fine.)
So he leaves, and after about 30 minutes or so, I begin my trip.
I was on the couch with the wife, and I remember me and her turning into lines/blobs of energy and other than me and her, everything in the room was not there. Me and her were lit up and glowing, yet we were surrounded by complete blackness. (I knew i still in my apartment, but I saw only me and her.)
Then me and her in our "energy forms" wrapped around be each other like the same way twizzlers candy or a DNA strand wraps around itself.
We both kept getting brighter and brighter until all of the sudden, I was alone, and in a strange new place.
I was walking forward, and surrounded by what appeared to be white light or some kind of clouds/fog. Every now and then I would catch a glimpse of a some kind of objects or structures like the ground I was walking on for example, but for the most part I was walking on clouds or fog surrounded by just.. White light. But I don't remember thinking it was too bright or anything.
Suddenly, from the mist emerged a strikingly beautiful blonde hair blue eyed woman. She was wearing a flowing white robe / dress.
Around her neck, she wore a golden necklace in the shape of a crescent Moon. She was perfect. To this day I've never seen a woman with such a perfect face and body features, but the main difference between her and anyone else I've ever seen was the simple fact that she towered over me.
To this day when I describe how tall she was, I always tell people she was 14 feet tall, but this is a number that for some reason my brain automatically came to, so yeah, no idea why, but she was exactly 14 feet tall.
Emanating from her body was an energy of love. It's hard to describe, but all of a sudden I realized that I loved her more than anything in my life at the time. Yet, it wasn't the typical, "I want to fuck her brains out!" Kinda love. I mean actually loving someone just because they are so awesome. I had no sexual attraction to her whatsoever.
We smiled at each other, and the first words that came out of my mouth were, "So, uh, who are you?" She did a beautiful little laugh and again smiled before replying with,
"I am who I am, and you are who you are."
Then we started talking about the world, we talked about humanity, why things are the way they are, basically any and every topic was covered. We talked for hours, and when she spoke, she would RHYME all of her words and sentences. It was comparable to how William Shakespeare wrote/ spoke in Iambic pentameter.
Her words had energy in them, and the energy would soothe my soul. Very hard to explain but hopefully people reading this have done acid before. Hard to explain LSD experiences to people that have never done acid.
We talked for hours but the only significant things I remember from the conversation after sobering up were:
"humans were meant to be more". and, "This life is a test".
I eventually return back to the couch and my reality, and I'm having a great time. Still high and enjoying myself.
However, Remember My friend who was at the house earlier?
His girlfriend calls to tell me the he is freaking out, dropped her 6 year old kid on the ground, and was tearing shit apart at the house.
So I go to save him and try to calm him down. Keep in mind I'm driving 10 miles on LSD 25. I don't really remember the drive, but I remember showing up at his house to find his pitbull roaming the front yard frantically, and to the front door being wide open. Of course his girlfriend is no longer in the house, she tells me he is inside and I go to help him.
I enter the house and find stuff strewn about. I call out to him, and I noticed that his sliding glass door that leads to the back yard is broken. (Apparently he ran through it). He eventually shows up naked at the broken glass door and starts saying "I love you, I hate you". (Something he said to his gf all the Time.) He is bloody from running through the glass door, and gives me a hug. I freak out, thinking he's a serial killer for some reason (I was high), and I proceeded to get in my car and drive off before the cops come and arrest me for "being and accessory to murder"(again I'm high people...)
I left my wife over there at his house in the front yard with Tammy, his GF hahaha! I never even once thought about her, as I am now having a bad trip, and I'm stuck in a terrible loop when I think my buddy Chad is a serial killer.
I'm now driving back to my apartment, at night, no glasses 👓, and I'm on Lsd 25.
On the way, blood is dripping through my car's ceiling and onto my hands. (The blood actually came from my buddy hugging me) I start seeing lights from the sky! "Oh my God." I thought,
"the cops are chasing me in helicopters!" I even heard the helicopter sounds and everything. (These are called ''auditory hallucinations")
The car next to me had their window down, and at that time, the walkie talkie "beep" was a popular ringtone. So I figure it must be a cop.
Realizing the jig is up, I roll down my window and tell the ''police officer" this...
"I'm sorry for running from you guys, but at least give me the decency to pull over into the gas station before you arrest me."
Right after I said that, the police officer's face morphed into a young, confused and frightened black man. He was probably on the phone telling his friend some crazy white guy was fucked up.
I park at the Valero and realize the the car is tilting sideways while I'm driving, like i was driving on an uneven surface. ( It wasn't) once I started driving again,
I get lost on the way back the apartment and talk to another black guy whose face kept morphing while he is giving me directions.
I eventually somehow get home, and I'm still stuck in the whole serial killer I'm getting arrested mode. I gently pet my dog 🐕 telling him that I'm going to jail and that I love him. I just remember that I feel like my life was over, and THEN I THREW AWAY THE VIAL OF ACID! NOT SURE WHY, but I was high and scared. Some other strange things happened after that.
I noticed the door that leads to my restroom is really small. Like 3x5 inches haha. The other thing was that everything around me was normal except for my dog. He was moving like 50 miles an hour. Like he was a blur. For example, a walk from my bed to the kitchen would take like 4 seconds, but my dog could move all around the apartment in the same amount of time. He looked like the super hero "The Flash.'' he was moving so fast he was leaving behind "tracers".
Anyways, I get a call from my wife asking where I am, she said everything is good and I calm down. I drove back ten more miles back to Chad's house and learn he was arrested. He was bloody, naked, and ran into the street, getting hit by a car, did a flip, and after Landing on his feet, ran into a Randall's parking lot, where he was surrounded by cop cars, and subsequently tazed by cops until he became he unconscious.
He didn't go to jail, because interestingly enough, his GF Tammy told the cops that he ate "Halloween candy that was laced with drugs."
I forgot to mention this all happened on Halloween...
Anyways long story short, later down the line this same buddy of mine ended up sleeping with my ex wife while we were broken up. I ended up having a child with this woman, and I can't by help but think about how both our bodies turned into energy and wrapped around each other.)
I also had the typical "I am everything, but I am nothing." moment as well.
Well..... That's my LSD 25 story. Hope you learned something. I know I did. I haven't hallucinated since. Correction, I did it one other time after that, but whatever, God bless you all, and don't marry American women. They are all brainwashed by feminism, and 80 percent of them are whores. (I'm American unfortunately, I know these things.)
@@deridivisstar884 Wow that's quite the story man. Actually enjoyed it
If you've done acid before, you'll know that this story is probably completely true. You'll also know the beauty of his experience and the revelations he had.

Hey! Love your channel, man!
Duncan trussell is my spirit animal.
Pretty sure I met him at Gathering Of The Vibes back in the early 2000's. Nevertheless hes the funniest dude ever
your channel is sick af
Laughed out loud after I liked your comment and realized it was you! Your channel is so great and pure and funny and profound. Thanks.
Anybody here after binge watching the midnight gospel
Yup. I was vaguely familiar w/ him from Rogan's podcast (seen lots of clips and maybe one full episode) but Midnight Gospel made me a fan for sure. One of the best shows I've seen in a while.
Haven't made it that far yet just beginning this rabbit hole trip ,started on JR
YEP 😂😂
Exactly, currently in my feelings from the last episode too
M.Falkey oh yeah that last episode hit me right in my feelings. That’s the first time a cartoon made me cry
this was like a fucking TED talk right here
A great one at that!
Duncan is going to teach philosophy in Harvard one day. Screenshot this post.
napukapu Duncan's way _way_ more influential and interesting than a mere Harvard professor already. Absolutely love the guy. So happy to see him get a bit 'o' fame via Comedy Central. He deserves it more than any comedian I know.
7:00 I keep watching that guy in the lower left part of the screen....just to the right of that water bottle. He doesn't even _crack a smile_ throughout this entire set. Wtf? I do not understand people like that. How uptight and normal and boring do you have to be to listen to a story like this.....and maintain a straight poker face throughout? He just seems....dead inside.

@@ballersonly2851 thanks.
I heard the dude's voice on Midnight Gospel, then I heard his voice through a gillie suit on Joe Rogan's podcast, and then I finallt decided "I have to see what this homie looks like" and let me tell you, not what I expected.
That exact same thing happened to me.
Right? Like his voice doesn't really match his looks :D But he is a great guy for sure!
TBH, I also agree but I also couldn't think of what he could look like either. Did anyone else have a visual picture/image in their mind?
He sort of looks like Jim Henson.
I thought he was gonna be a really small dude
The BEST in this whole series; he is able to incapsulate every aspect of what a trip is! He has a truly colorful vocabulary
The best ??? Lol dude not even close . Not even in the ballpark . This guy is literally not even funny at all

If you guys ever had an existential bad-trip, your stomach will def churn through this story. Been there. He describes it to a T.
this isn't a bad trip lol.
Yeah- kinda, but I thought it was hilarious. I didn’t see the Dead, well, with Jerry anyway, but we hit the lot scene in 96 and it was insane. He’s not lying about any of it.
just had one 4 days ago. I feel this
Jalesa Armen it can be uncomfortable
I’ve been having existential bad trips all my life without hallucinogens. Other hard drugs have been heavily involved and the occasional psychedelics but mostly just my mind almost constantly feeling violated and traumatized from the hard life I once led. Somehow this compelling story relates those same feelings in me, including the ending revelation that there’s never any reason to worry.
this is fucking incredible, the crowd is so intrigued with the mans story they only laugh on key notes, perfection :)
Great storytelling is a prerequisite of comedy. And not the other way around. He’s brilliant. And loveable.
Uh wut
Dude my parents followed the Grateful Dead in the 90s. I can’t believe Duncan confirmed this. People had phone books full of tabs man
It was crazy before mandatory sentencing made acid too sketchy to run, carry or deal.
It was pretty dope and the kind hits were always around when the Dead were around.
His last sentiments were exactly the realization I had on Acid. LSD can be a beautiful and scary thing!
"we have $80 left to buy grilled cheese sandwiches" LMFAO. that one didn't slip me by

i think what makes acid fun is you become consciously aware of everything that’s usually just purely subconscious
@@MoreTrenMoreMen69 fun is a fun way of describing it ,it’s basically every religious experience smashed togheter
It's funny he said grilled cheese sandwiches. When I used to trip on acid when i was a teenager, my friends and i used make cheese sandwiches at the end of the trip to get something back in our stomachs after "tripping face" for 18hours. We called them "face sandwiches"
I only trip with my buds like once a year now but we made a tradition of always getting dominos pan pizzas as soon as we come down enough to operate the delivery app and sign the receipt lol, maybe something just inherently cathartic about greasy bread and cheese the same way it hits after a night of drinking
Your mother finds out and tells you not to trip on your face. You reply. Seriously
Joseph Bellemare we ate lunchables we for some reason called LIL ENTREES

He's one of my favorites. So glad "Midnight Gospel" popped off. I'm currently 38 years old, and the older I get the more I realize, what I don't know, but I DO know, if Duncan Trussell went to the same high school as me, he'd be in the same small group of friends.
Seriously one of my favorite of Duncan’s stories.
A lie can be more dangerous than a knife. Misinformation is STILL rampant in this country. I am praying that lsd becomes decriminalized because it WILL not hurt you. Only you can hurt you.

The fuck you doing out here bro
HOMIE???
Val go to sleep
If I could only do one thing to make a difference in the trajectory of human culture, I would choose to invoke insight the way that Trussel and Rogan have done to me. As a kid who grew up in a town of 600 people, attended 18 years of catholic schools, and served time in the military, the ideologies bestowed through those environments were overwhelming. Adopting any one of these inherent ideologies would have been nothing but detrimental. This was all trumped by the objective reasoning of these two gentlemen and their brilliant acquaintances. Thank you for teaching me it's ok to be skeptical and to question everything. I believe this to be essential to the healthy evolution of thought.
Rock on brother.
Wow, deep respect to you for realizing the mental prison in your mind and breaking out of it. Sure Duncan and Rogan has influenced you in waking up, but any advice can only truly resonate if you already know, on some level, the advice to be true. There are thousands of people just like you who run into these mind-opening influenced but never even get slightly touched by them and they end up spending the rest of their lives in a mental prison.
Respect!
You, me, and a bunch of other people have had very similar shifts in perspective and consciousness thanks largely to Joe and Duncan. Everytime I run into someone who really doesn't have their shit together, I honestly think about what Duncan and Joe kind of taught me, and what part of that I can convey to other people, because like you said, this kind of stuff could literally change the world for the better if we could just spread it around more.

The use of magic mushrooms completely helps one get over depression and makes you feel like yourself .
I've been thinking to use shrooms for my anxiety and depression . Anyone know where I can source them ? 0:08

"...not because we liked The Dead, but because we loved LSD."
If you're ever in Santa Cruz, or the Bay area in general, and someone invites you to a Dead Dance, just go. If you have the right energy you'll get free drugs every time : )
SpaceManDawn....I'm from and live in San Jose, and what you say is the truth...
nothing safer than free drugs kids!
I love the dead though 👍
My area. Do ya remember Shorline parking lot!!
Yeah fuck this guy, the Dead was and IS awesome.
The Dead is one of the greatest psychedelic bands to walk the face of this earth. People just didn't follow them for the acid. They made amazing music
theres a moment in one of his podcasts with Joe Rogan where Joe says The Grateful Dead suck and Duncan defends them saying they are good and you must have not heard them on acid and invited him over to his house to take acid and listen to the dead. i think he says the dead is bad because its one of the only funny things in the story most people can relate to because not many people listen to the dead
True that brother, you don’t need drugs to jam to the dead. They’re just cherries on the sundae
Shahzeb Amin umphrys mcgee is good to
Disagree with ya there. You gotta be tripping or fucked up to actually listen to them. Hendrix is the best to listen to tripping
Towards the end the Dead had many “fans” there just to party and take drugs. Scene was getting bad at the end
The psychedelic experience is just as important as losing your virginity.
way more important hahaha
By lightyears man. I actually didn't give a shit when I lost my virginity. Wasn't nothing to talk about. But acid...? But 4aco dmt....? I could go on for hours
Depends on who you are lol
I couldn't have said it better myself.
I haven’t been able to find any psychedelics in my area smh
I was at the grateful dead in LA circa 1988 and it was one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had. Its true what they say about the concerts they were a gateway to the real deal.
After learning about Duncan's life in a different, and interesting manner, from the 'Midnight Gospel', I can confidently say, this hits different now
I feel like any acid story becomes relatable once you do acid. Good memories man
Wasn't that funny but I really liked it. Mostly because I like psychedelic stories. I really like this season overall
I love his comedy because he focuses a little more on the story telling around the comedy and adding a few more details than other comedians would
I remember this 90's acid it was good too. Never got in a show but the parking lot was the bestest. Bart Simpson acid man 12 hits lol. Love the old dead show parking lot miss the lots
Snowman. Layed so thick it had crystallized. Or Felix way to much Felix. I got so far out on it I ended up cutting pages into snowflakes and giving the cutouts to anyone around. Hung one of them on my rearview mirror. It went with the bus when I sold it. Never told the buyer what it was just thought it would be a big surprise if they ever tasted it on the curious.
First time hearing about this guy, and I'm glad I found him.
“Internment camp for teens, run by the state.” Is the realist shit ever.
Often times when I’m high it feels like I’m gonna die but for some reason Duncan Trussell‘s voice brings me back to life.
That was such a beautifully told story, I felt every word of it.
“Even if you’re dying of cancer- well no, that’s pretty bad” lmfao
Just poppin in to say we love you Duncan, still killing it only ever onwards and upwards, forever taking the JRE to the next level with your appearances, love live da TRUSSELL
This guy really died for a minute, every one who does feels the same all encompassing love
Why is Ginny Weasley in the audience?
THEDARKKNIGHT1939 She's hp's wife. OF COURSE she does acid
THEDARKKNIGHT1939 looks just like her bro

So he mentions seeing hieroglyphs and symbols. Most intense trip I had was on something called 2CE. I had 5 hits and within an hour, I saw those symbols. And at that time, I determined it was the spiritual and metaphysical structure of the universe.
SAME but it was on lsd 2 tabs and I started seeing numbers everywhere
I remember the last time I took acid. I was alone in my room going through the peak and I closed my lights and sat on my bed forget where I was and thought I died. I had never felt so peaceful in my life and started laughing super hard. I then realized I was still in my room. Started laughing even harder because I legit thought I died on acid. 🤣🤣
You just made that up
Duncan is the gentle uncle we all need in our lives
I was house sitting for a family with a bunch on Grateful Dead posters everywhere. I found some sugar cubes in the freezer and thought, huh, that's strange. I licked my finger & dipped it in the loose grains in the bag. I thought, yup, that's sugar in the freezer all right. An hour later, I'm like, I feel like mushrooms are coming on. Holy shit! The SUGAR!! The Cherry Garcia. The Woodstock album. I'm on acid now.
Wrong crowd. As a dead head I laughed my ass off
Me too but bums me out because "I love going to GD concerts but I hate the GD" is something I hear constantly lol
I think they're quiet just because they're more interested in the story itself rather than the humor of the situation. The audience seems attentive.
ayee yeah i don't think they fully grasped what our scene is like undescribable till you've been there
Lol right ??
"Even out the sheet,"
10. He took 10 hits.
N honestly it was probably fucking amazing bliss. I been there lol. It's great.
It could've been any amount in increments of ten lol. Fraggle hit my boy with a 30 piece and dude left earth for quite a while.
And really it means like if you have a sheet and a partial strip on the edge like take the remainder to make the rest of the sheet even in numbers of ten
@@CaseyFolds how long
How do you know?
Is that a term for 10?
@@drakusmorgan6770 couple days of tripping and then weeks and months kinda gradually came back. He's one of my best friends still today. He's alright. Lol
this is the most beautiful story ever
I sat on mushrooms and ecstacy in front of all my fake gangster 19 year old friends and knelt down and proclaimed i now believe in god and thanked him on my knees that he could create something as beautiful and perfect as the feeling i felt on mushrooms and ecstacy.
That was like maybe 1999-2002ish lol.
They didnt even ask me about it the next day lol. That was powerful ecstacy lol.
I just had a religious experience 2 days ago on lsd man... My friend dad just passed and we dropped some after the funeral I swear I was fine like walking on sun Ray's then I swear I died and the lord brought me back and I saw my friends dad and he was happy I told my friend (he was also trippin but he pulled me through) and I told him 1st I thank God 2nd I thanked him. I was literally paralyzed for a while there thought I was gonna know what was goin on but be in a chair the rest of my life! I will NEVER forget April 23rd 2019! His dad wasn't religious neither is my friend but he didn't say a negative thing!
It's true what you have experienced, so to recognise a higher power through emotion like that it can be religious. Or you can drop the God part and just be grateful of that feeling. My point here being that even though the emotion is God like, it will never proof the existence of a God other than that feeling. I would conclude that if you found a other act such of that could be described as a miracle it should produce you the same kind of xstatic feeling. I deduct this it this way because you were not in control o yourself in that state of yours, so if God would come about acting in our universe you should gain xtc without drugs. I doubt that any of the religions can offer such a state even with mass gatherings and I bet if I would go out in such parties and distribute drogas like lsd and mdma, hidden in freely taken communal snacks - there would be a revelation of a difrent kind of God that day. I would separate their realities and attach them in to that moment through me. I would hack their minds and give them a true sence of free will. Freedom to believe in God and continue on their path for ever knowing their limitless potential to grow or the later.
Same happened to me veerji , i grew up hating religion but it just took one trip of lsd that changed me forever , i was more calm and accepting of things like religion,spiritually and alot of other stuff moreover, not just that but anyone or anything that held onto a different or even conflicting belief system than me ,
All of those problems seemed way too small infront of the experience i had on this drug , it kinda humbled me down

Ecstacy is sketchy and overrated. 99% you're getting it cut with meth or coke. You'll never get pure X unless you make it yourself

who also came back here after watching Midnight Gospel ?
Gaaah that ending though. So beautiful and sad
