Yep, you read the title correctly. This week I sit down with a young man from Colorado Springs who is planning on running 500 miles with a team of doctors and experts — all the while consuming LSD and psilocybin.

Wild to say the least. We jam on what originally created the idea for this project, how it will be managed, and what Dante hopes comes from it.

This episode is short and straight to the point.

Cheers,

If you’re a new dad, or know a new dad this episode is for you.

Hell, even if you’re not one, this is an honest conversation about the massive initiation that is fatherhood.

In this episode I sit down with my good friend and brother Dr. Long Distance Love Bombs and chat with him about all the ways, both amazing and challenging, that his life has changed since becoming a dad this past year.

We talk anger, depression, jubilance and of course — the pressure. Jeremy opens up completely in a candid and vulnerable way about his whole experience.

I loved this conversation and am excited to share it with you. Please share this with a new or expecting father in your life.

Cheers,

Traver

Most people think this is about mental toughness. It's not.

This episode covers what I packed, what I wish I hadn't, what saved me, and what almost broke me. But more importantly — it’s about how surrender is the only real survival skill worth having.

I share the little rituals and practices that got me through the most intense parts of the experience, and what I'll be doing differently this time around. If you're planning your own deep dive, or just curious how to prepare for one, this episode is your guide. Practical, honest, and full of unexpected lessons from the dark.

There's a lot of talk about masculinity out there. Most of it's noise.

In the dark, I discovered a version of masculinity that had nothing to prove, nothing to fight, and nothing to perform. Just strength. Stillness. Surrender. This episode is about how darkness stripped me down to the bones--and what I found underneath.

I talk about the power of discipline without ego, devotion without force, and why surrender is one of the most misunderstood strengths a man can possess. If you're tired of performance-based masculinity, this one's a breath of fresh air.

Pain doesn't leave the body until it's been felt.

In this episode, I talk about how darkness forced me to feel the stuff I spent years running from--grief, heartbreak, shame. All of it. No therapist. No journal. Just pitch black silence and a willingness to not run.

I open up about what happened when I finally let the pain have a voice, and what healing looked like when there was no one around to witness it. This one's about shadow work, emotional truth, and what's possible when you stop trying to fix yourself and just sit with what is.

If you've been carrying something heavy for too long, listen to this. If you've ever wondered how healing actually happens--this is where it begins.

Ever sat still long enough to hear yourself think? What about long enough to hear yourself scream?

This episode is about the three characters that show up when the world goes quiet--fear, boredom, and madness. I met all three of them in the dark. Some of them became friends. Some... not so much.

I get into the games your mind plays when there's no one to distract you, and how facing these voices helped me reclaim parts of myself I didn't even realize I had buried. This is about going beyond self-help into self-reckoning. It's a wild one, and it might just mirror something you've felt but haven't named yet.

We live in a world built on distraction--dopamine loops, constant noise, nonstop input. But what happens when you take it all away?

In this one, I share what it felt like to remove every single thing I usually lean on--no Instagram, no podcasts, no books, no light. Just stillness and space. Spoiler alert: it sucked. Then it got profound.

This episode isn't just about silence--it's about withdrawal, confrontation, and ultimately transformation. I talk about the chaos that surfaced when I stopped numbing myself and what broke through once I made it through the noise. If you've ever wondered who you are without your coping mechanisms, this one's for you.

Cheers,

If you've ever wanted to run away from your life for a bit--or just hide in a closet with no phone--you're going to get this one.

In this episode, I dive into why I chose to sit in total darkness for 28 days... and why I'm going back in for **49**. No phone. No light. No distractions. Just me, my mind, and whatever monsters show up when there's nothing else to hold onto.

It wasn't just an escape--it was a full-on confrontation with myself. And in that confrontation, I found answers I didn't even know I was looking for.

This episode is a window into the madness, the medicine, and the real reason I think every human needs a version of this. If you've ever felt the need to reset, unplug, or just get real with yourself — this one's for you.

Cheers,

Traver
