Ep. 96: Joesh Savage - Amazon Ayahuasca Trips & Documentary
Monday Jun 20, 2022
Monday Jun 20, 2022
Joesh Savage is audio / video engineer, producer, comedian, documentary film creator, and friend. He is currently documenting the impacts of deforestation, westernization and segmentation of land that was once free to roam on the tribes and their culture that is rich in plant based medicine, specifically Ayahuasca ceremonies in the Amazon.
We talked about his several trips to the jungle, many of 30 days at a time over the past 4 years where he has been both documenting their way of life, the changes they have incurred, but also his own personal journey using these plants to find a deeper meaning to life and himself.
He shared some pretty wild stories about his travels to and from, as well as his experiences on the medicines that will blow your mind.

Ep. 95: Phil Demers - The Walrus Whisperer
Monday Jun 20, 2022
Monday Jun 20, 2022
Phil Demers is a former Marineland animal trainer who is known as the @walruswhisperer. He has been in a legal battle with Marineland since his departure in 2012, being sued for $1.5 million for plotting to steal a walrus named Smooshi that Phil had imprinted on and that believed him to be her mother.
His story has gained national attention over the past 10 years, including where I heard of him while he was a guest on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast multiple times over that span.
Phil and I talked about how he found himself working at Marineland at 22 years of age in the first place, the mental impact of taking animals away from their mothers, what the future holds for current captive marine mammals, and even some discussion about Phil's musical interests and past experience as a touring musician.
Fantastic episode that I hope you enjoy and SHARE with all your friends! This is one that everyone should hear! Follow on social media @thatcuriousjones and Stay Curious!

We also talked about the what seems to be increasing craziness of the world and what it could potentially mean about the bigger picture of existence.
