Nov 22 2009 - FANE-BE HEAR NOW-WE INTERVIEW LORENZO HAGERTY FROM THE PSYCHEDELIC SALON

This week I had the distinct honour of interviewing Lorenzo Hagerty the “Podfather” of the Psychedelic Salon. The Salon is probably the most important collection of Entheogenic Speakers we have in North America. We finally get to see the man behind this unique collection. I found him to be one of the most engaging yet truly humble people I have ever interviewed. We had such a great chat! We then got real serious and listened to Eugene Oscapella and his testimony before the Senate Committee Hearings on Bill C-15. We hear a comedian who stole 14 balance beam scales from high school to trade for pot. Our tunes this week range from Public Enemy to Utah Phillips and Ani to Daddy G. I would like the thank all the people who make this show possible, Natural Alchemy, Paul D (who helps with these podcasts!), Alan M, Alan America, the volunteers at KCR, Terry, the freaks and the sponsor of the show.

Oct 18 2009 - FANE-BE HEAR NOW-WE INTERVIEW DANIEL VITALIS REGARDING THE SPIRIT OF MUSHROOMS

Daniel Vitalis is a leading Health Motivator and Longevity Strategist.

For 15 years he has been at the forefront of these studies, delving ever deeper into these exciting fields, unlocking the mysteries of
superior health and nutritional practices.

He has quickly become recognized as a leading voice in his arena, delivering premier information on a variety of interrelated subjects and across
many disciplines, from the science of water to the philosophy of personal health sovereignty.

Daniel is a dynamic, entertaining speaker who delivers leading edge (and sometimes controversial) information with a unique style and unforgettable
humor. Daniel’s approach is a unique blend of multidisciplinary modalities covering Ancient Herbalism, Alchemy, Science, Mysticism and Indigenous Shamanism to name only a few, though the foundation of his message is the belief that Invincible
Health is our birthright and is achieved through the 5 Elements of Earth, Water, Air, Fire and the ever-present Quintessence that animates all life.

We also hear from Martin Prechtel and the truly inspired "Of Grief and Praise"....I would recommend to everyone to listen to this piece.

Jul 19 2009 - FANE…BE HEAR NOW…THE SCARY REALITY OF THE TERM COP A FEEL…POLICE ABUSE SEARCH POWERS

I speak about my experience at Starbelly, a great family oriented festival that takes place in Crawford Bay every year. Kicking it to Phish and Farmhouse. I start off the show with a great Celtic Tale from the bard Robin Williamson. I relate a story from the Valley Voice, a local newspaper, about the harrowing tale of a young girl in spandex shorts and the sexual assault she experienced at the hands of local police…looking for a concealed weapon. It was summer...she had a tank top on and shorts. I go off about the way officers abuse their powers for the sexual degradation of women. This adds a nasty ring to the saying “Cop a feel”.
