Hamilton Morris on Iboga, 5-MeO-DMT, The Power of Ritual,
New Frontiers in Psychedelics, Excellent Problems to Solve, and
More | Brought to you by Dry Farm
Wines natural wines designed for fewer
hangovers, LMNT electrolyte
supplement, and Oura
smart ring wearable for personalized sleep
and health insights. More on all three below.


Hamilton Morris (@HamiltonMorris) is a
chemist, filmmaker, and science journalist. A graduate of The New
School, he conducts chemistry research at The University of the
Sciences in Philadelphia.


Hamilton is the writer and director of the documentary
series Hamilton’s Pharmacopeia, in which he
explores the chemistry and traditions surrounding psychoactive
drugs. His research has allowed him to study psychoactive plants,
fungi, and chemicals, as well as the culture that surrounds them,
in more than 30 countries, using an interdisciplinary approach
that combines anthropology and chemistry.


Hamilton’s recent republishing of a book on Bufo
alvarius has, at the time of writing, raised more
than $205,000 for Parkinson’s disease research.

by Dry Farm
Wines. I’m
a wine drinker, and I love a few glasses over meals
with friends. That said, I hate hangovers. For the last few
months, most of the wine in my house has been
from Dry Farm Wines. Why? At least in my
experience, their wine means more fun with fewer
headaches. Dry Farm Wines only
ships wines that meet very stringent criteria:
practically sugar free (less than 0.15g per glass), lower alcohol
(less than 12.5% alcohol), additive free (there are more than 70
FDA-approved wine-making additives), lower sulfites,
organic, and produced by small family farms.


All Dry Farm Wines are laboratory tested for
purity standards by a certified, independent enologist, and all
of their wines are also backed by a 100% Happiness
Promise—they will either replace or refund any wine you
do not love. Last but not least, I find
delicious wines I never would have found otherwise.
It’s a lot of
fun. Dry Farm Wines has
a special offer just for listeners of the
podcast—an extra bottle in your first box for
just one extra penny. Check out all the details
at DryFarmWines.com/Tim.

This episode is also brought to you by
Oura! Oura is the company
behind the smart ring that delivers personalized sleep
and health insights to help you optimize just about
everything. I’ve been using it religiously for at least six
months, and I was introduced to it by Dr. Peter Attia. It is the
only wearable that I wear on a daily basis.


With advanced sensors, Oura packs state-of-the-art heart rate,
heart-rate variability, temperature, activity, and sleep
monitoring technology into a convenient, non-invasive ring. It
weighs less than 6 grams and focuses on three key insights—sleep,
readiness, and activity.


Try it for yourself. The Oura
Ring comes in two styles and three colors:
Silver, Black, and Matte Black. For $299, you can give or get the
gift of health by visiting
OuraRing.com.

This episode is also brought to you
by LMNT! What
is LMNT? It’s a delicious, sugar-free electrolyte drink-mix.
I’ve stocked up on boxes and boxes of this and usually use it 1–2
times per day. LMNT is formulated to help anyone with
their electrolyte needs and perfectly suited to folks following a
keto, low-carb, or Paleo diet. If you are on a low-carb diet or
fasting, electrolytes play a key role in relieving hunger,
cramps, headaches, tiredness, and dizziness.


LMNT came up with a very special offer for you, my dear
listeners. They’ve created Tim’s Club: Simply go
to DrinkLMNT.com/Tim and select
“Subscribe & Save” on any 30-count box of LMNT for only $36.
This will be valid for the lifetime of the subscription and you
can pause it anytime. And perfect for the warm days,
they have a new flavor, Watermelon Salt, which
I've been quite enjoying.
