It's the episode on acid, where we're NOT on acid. Extracted from a dangerous fungus, lysergic acid diethylamide became the preferred party drug of the counterculture. Join us as we take a trip from ergotism epidemics in the middle ages to microdosing by Silicon Valley techies. On our magical mystery tour we find that you shouldn't eat the weird-looking rye, riding your bicycle on LSD is just one bad trip and you can't absorb acid through your skin (unless you lick it). Also: Timothy Leary, MK-ULTRA, and orifices!!!
