This week Jay and Nicola discuss the use of Psychedelics in modern western society, the healing potential they have and the ways they can be misused.

Do shows like Star Trek and Black Mirror warn us of what is to come or are we collectively creating our reality? Jay and Nicola dive deep into this question on the episode.

Listen in and let us know what you think about this topic on our instagram @theafroanimistpodcast. P.S a note about Joe Rogan....This episode was recorded prior to the revelation that he used the "n word. The episode remains illustrative of our sentiments towards Predictive Programming. We appreciate Joe Rogan's choice of guests and creating a platform to support different views and information from those qualified to explain certain subject matters that need academic support behind them to alleviate confusion and misinformation. We believe Mr Rogan is wrong for, and in no position to say the N word and should know this by now. We believe in giving people the chance to grow and learn from their mistakes.
