I'm your host, Ashlyn Harris, 2 00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:06,880 Speaker 1: and today's guest is someone who has made a career 3 00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:10,160 Speaker 1: out of telling the truth before we're ready to hear it, 4 00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:14,360 Speaker 1: and somehow making us laugh while she does it so beautifully. 5 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:17,959 Speaker 1: Chelsea Handler is a comedian, writer, activist, and one of 6 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:22,840 Speaker 1: the sharpest cultural voices we have today. She's fearless, she's smart. 7 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 1: She's never been interested in playing small or making herself 8 00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 1: more comfortable or digestible for other people. But what I 9 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,960 Speaker 1: really really appreciate about Chelsea is how much she's evolved 10 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:39,199 Speaker 1: out loud. She's hilarious, she's unapologetic, but there's also a 11 00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: depth and an honesty and a real self awareness that 12 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:48,200 Speaker 1: feels especially powerful in this moment. Today, we're talking about 13 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:52,239 Speaker 1: what's new, what's coming, what she cares about now, and 14 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:57,080 Speaker 1: how humor, freedom and growth all coexist when you stop 15 00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: pretending you have it all figured out. Let's get into it. 16 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 1: This is Chelsea Handler on Wide Open with Ashlin Harris. 17 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,400 Speaker 1: All right, welcome back to Wide Open with Ashlin Harris. 18 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 1: We are joined today by the Queen of blunt honesty, comedian, author, entrepreneur, 19 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: and adventure of Antarctica.

By the way, I learned in 24 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 2: Antarctica that the correct correct pronunciation is antarcticut. And I'm like, God, 25 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 2: that's too many we're not talking about. That's exactly what 26 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 2: I said. I go, I can't really, but once I 27 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 2: know that I'm mispronouncing something or missaying something, then I 28 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 2: really have to fix it. So now I just keep 29 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 2: saying Antarctica as many times a day as I can 30 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 2: for it to become malifluous. 31 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 1: But you know what, this is very American of me 32 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 1: to just, you know, I'm gonna say Antarctica.

Did I hear that you 125 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: were taking parenting classes? The fuck is wrong with what's 126 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:35,840 Speaker 1: going on? 127 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 2: I have taken parenting classes. I have taken I don't 128 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 2: take them currently, but yes, I took some parenting classes 129 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 2: because I had some poopsie whoopsies. I'll call them in 130 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,919 Speaker 2: my life. If you read my last book, then you 131 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 2: know what I'm talking about. But for the for anyone 132 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 2: who's listening that doesn't know my stuff, I have like 133 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 2: these two, well three girls of my life that are 134 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 2: like my teenage children or they're well they're all eighteen 135 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 2: now one's thirty four. But yeah, they're like my little babies, 136 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:08,840 Speaker 2: and I have to take care of them. So they 137 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 2: call me father and my daughters. 138 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 1: Well, what did you learn that you want to tell 139 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: me as a new parent, Like, well, what give me 140 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 1: some wisdom. 141 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 2: That when children are angry, they are scared, So like 142 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 2: you never meet anger with anger. That was important, Never 143 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 2: meet anger with anger. So if you're frustrated and you 144 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 2: lose the plot, then you lose the plot. But you 145 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 2: are the adults. So if a kid is scared and 146 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,679 Speaker 2: they come running to you, even if they're acting out, 147 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 2: you meet them with love. 148 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: Got it?

And they're not children luckily, so I don't 153 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 2: have to do that. But yeah, just to make sure 154 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 2: My goal in my relationship with these girls in my 155 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 2: life is that they know that somebody has their back, 156 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 2: that somebody will show up and like you know, reliable 157 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 2: on time.

While 175 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:06,199 Speaker 2: there's social media, and while I talk about how much 176 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 2: I love to microdose mushrooms and LSD and MDMA and 177 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 2: and every I mean I'm yeah, I can't believe it 178 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 2: that I'm still free. So that's why I'm going to 179 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 2: stay in Canada for as long as you really should. 180 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: It feels like this one out you actually touched on 181 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 1: your book and if those of you know people who 182 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 1: are listening and tuning in, if you if you haven't 183 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 1: read it, go do yourself a favor. What I do 184 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: love about you, Chelsea is you're insanely smart. You're not 185 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: just funny. It's not a gimmick. There's so much truth 186 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: to your like it's you're actually like super super intelligent. 187 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 1: And I don't know if I can say that for 188 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 1: every comedian. 189 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 2: Well thank you. I think it's a lot of I 190 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 2: think I appreciate that. I mean, I you know, I 191 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 2: don't think I'm super super smart, but I do think 192 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 2: I'm smart. I do think that a comedians in general 193 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 2: are very bright because you really have to kind of 194 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,719 Speaker 2: you're twisting language and you're making people see things from 195 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 2: a different perspective. You have to entertain so many people 196 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 2: that you have to have something going on. 197 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 1: And that LSD or is that. 198 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 2: I mean, that's for me, that's a way for me 199 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:17,080 Speaker 2: to tolerate others. Is LSD, so not necessarily on stage, 200 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 2: but definitely in Antarctica for sure. That was a psychedelic 201 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 2: conference that I went to in Antarctica, by the way, 202 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 2: and I'm not joking. It was a psychedelic conference. So 203 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 2: half of the boat was researching psychedelics and the other 204 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:31,440 Speaker 2: half was using psychedelics. 205 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 1: This I like, I need, I need to land the 206 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:38,680 Speaker 1: plane about the book, and then we have to get 207 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 1: into this because it all ties in beautifully. No, because 208 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 1: what I love you write about this and you talk 209 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 1: about the word free and almost like it's like a 210 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: mantra you free to live, free to let go, free 211 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 1: to redefine yourself relationships, choose your own happiness. But like 212 00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 1: the freedom in which you live for someone like me, 213 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:05,319 Speaker 1: who's so structured, who is such an athlete through and through, 214 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: like everything has meaning, everything is a plan, everything is 215 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: like wake up, do this, do that. And I'm curious 216 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 1: now as you've turned fifty and you're going all you 217 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: just like live life so full, you do whatever the 218 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 1: fuck you want, You bring all these people with you. 219 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: It's so sacred in your bubble. Like has that sense 220 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 1: of freedom really hit now in your fifties or has 221 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: this been just a way of life. You've always kind 222 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 1: of cut through the noise. 223 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 2: I mean, it's basically like if when I was in 224 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 2: my twenties and thirties, I dreamt of like this, being 225 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 2: this free, being not tethered to a person, being able 226 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 2: to have like lovers men in my life. You know, 227 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 2: I am straight, so I like men. I'm unfortunate for 228 00:11:53,800 --> 00:12:01,319 Speaker 2: you know. And then I like, I really do think 229 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 2: every day like wow, you fucking did it. 230 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 1: Like you are. 231 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 2: You get to do whatever you want. Nobody tells me 232 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 2: what to do. I get, you know, I get to 233 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 2: come here for the wintertime. And even though I'm not 234 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 2: there's not snow right now, Like there's snow on the mountain, 235 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 2: but it's like you kind of I have a ski 236 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,559 Speaker 2: and ski out place that's like a little ski Shelle 237 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 2: in Canada, and like the whole point is to ski 238 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,479 Speaker 2: and ski out, not go down to the fucking gondola 239 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 2: and ride up, you know what I mean. So I'm 240 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 2: waiting for the snow to fill in. But even being 241 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 2: here is freedom. I'm like, God, I go, maybe I 242 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 2: should go find some stone and go somewhere else and ski. 243 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 2: And then I was like, no, I'm in my little 244 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 2: cozy cabin. I've got my dog, I've got people coming 245 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 2: like I've got my group of friends here. I'm like, 246 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 2: this is happiness to me, Like chilling out watching all 247 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 2: these movies that I have to watch for you know, 248 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 2: the Critics' Choice Awards I'm hosting. I have to watch 249 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 2: all these movies. So what could be more magnificent. It's 250 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 2: like waking up watching movies. I work out all day 251 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 2: long at my little house. I take my dog for 252 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,680 Speaker 2: dog runs, and I ski a little bit. I'm waiting 253 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 2: for the real snow to come, and I just think, like, yes, 254 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 2: there is a sense of freedom that I have in 255 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 2: my life that I wish every person, especially every woman, 256 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 2: could feel. 257 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's that you live it and you 258 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 1: bring us all on this journey with you. And I 259 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 1: love living through your social media because it gives everyone 260 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: a little bit more permission just to be a little 261 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 1: more spontaneous and free. And it doesn't have to come 262 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 1: with age. I think that's the biggest misconception. I think 263 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: we wait too long. Like I hear so often in 264 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: Hollywood of women who are walking the red carpet and 265 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: they're asked questions and it's like, oh, with age, you 266 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 1: just learn to like not give a fuck anymore. But like, 267 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: how is it a matter of having to live so 268 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 1: much life to get there? Or can we get there earlier? 269 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 2: And really that's what I want. I want people to 270 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 2: get there earlier and just kind of and I think, I, 271 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 2: you know, I think I see some people who are 272 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:57,080 Speaker 2: like living like that, you know, people who don't really 273 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 2: give a shit and then just kind of do their 274 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 2: own thing, you know, like, and I find that inspiring too. 275 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 2: It shouldn't You're right, It shouldn't take you aging to 276 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 2: figure out that you don't have to please people. But 277 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 2: I've really never been a people pleaser in that sense. 278 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 2: You know, there's times in my life where I cared 279 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 2: a lot about what people thought, even more so than 280 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 2: what I thought about myself. But I just think that 281 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 2: it is so important to actually be who you are 282 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 2: and not try to impress people with who you are, 283 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 2: or just to really truly be yourself is a gift, 284 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 2: and so many of us are just kind of trying 285 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 2: to be somebody else. And it's like you're the ticket, 286 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 2: so like, it doesn't matter how much you think of yourself, 287 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 2: I promise you being authentically who you are is always 288 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 2: the right answer, exactly. 289 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 1: It's also because we live in this comparison culture these 290 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 1: days from social media. Everyone wants to fucking look like 291 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: the Kardashians or do this or have this facelift, and 292 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 1: I was just like, we all fuckings are starting to 293 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 1: look the same. 294 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 2: Everyone just starting I mean, I've seen some pictures recently 295 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 2: and I'm like, this is getting ridiculous. 296 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 1: Ridiculous. 297 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 2: Everyone was starting to look the same with the lips 298 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 2: and the fucking everyone is emaciated. Everyone is emaciated, and 299 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 2: everyone has these banana boats on their faces. 300 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 1: For lips or their ass. I mean sometimes I'm like. 301 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, the ass, but the asses I think are 302 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 2: going out of they're shrinking. 303 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, boobs and ass are now. So yeah, you're right, 304 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: we are very snipped and tucked. Stay tuned. I'll be 305 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 1: back in just a moment after this brief message from 306 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 1: our sponsors.

I always give my friends 315 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 2: money to gamble because people don't know how to gamble 316 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 2: and they're not going to spend their own money. So 317 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 2: I always give my friends money. We always gamble after 318 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 2: my show, Vegas has been a total treat. To answer 319 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 2: your question, because each each date I do, I just 320 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 2: have random friends coming from different countries, sometimes from all 321 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 2: across our country. And so we went to go see 322 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 2: Alanamrisset all night. After we all gambled. My friends lose 323 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 2: my money like three grand. We go to see Alta 324 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 2: Smarriset the next night.

And you do talk about therapy 450 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: and you're very open about it and you're an incredible activist, 451 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,199 Speaker 1: But what do you think people are really missing? You know, 452 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: because it is funny when you talk about microdocene, because 453 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 1: you are fucking funny and you can use it as 454 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: in many different forms and ways. But for someone who's 455 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 1: like such a little straight needle, what what would you 456 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 1: tell to people that is really misunderstood about what type 457 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:55,719 Speaker 1: of breakthroughs it actually can give you? 458 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 2: Well, A, it's very therapeutic, So like there's all this 459 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 2: science and in seriousness, this boat did talk a lot 460 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:06,359 Speaker 2: about the research that different psychedelics. Paul Stammets, who's a 461 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 2: lead researcher with psilocybin, and then Rick Goblin who's or 462 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 2: Doblin is Doblin not Goblin. He's with MDMA. He does 463 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 2: a lot of research and it is it's just there's 464 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 2: a healing component to it. And first of all, if 465 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:23,720 Speaker 2: you're doing a sit, like a real sit with a 466 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 2: with a therapist. I have a friends up here who 467 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 2: are real therapists who do that work. They'll do like 468 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,440 Speaker 2: a four gram mushroom sit or a mushroom or MDMA 469 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,440 Speaker 2: or a ketemine or whatever your drug of choices. Those 470 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,919 Speaker 2: are very very therapeutic for people who have suffered from PTSD, 471 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 2: whether you're a veteran or whether you were severely traumatized, 472 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 2: like that helps. It helps with death, It helps in 473 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,920 Speaker 2: finding you have like a terminal diagnosis of some sort 474 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 2: of you know, disease, Like it helps you confront death, 475 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 2: it helps you accept death. So there's all these benefits 476 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 2: to it. But on a microdose level, I would just 477 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,119 Speaker 2: say like that it makes the world a brighter place. 478 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 2: You a have to be. You can't be on antidepressants. 479 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:04,400 Speaker 2: It's the same receptor. So like if you're on antiberdepressants, 480 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 2: microdosing probably isn't going to be the thing for you, 481 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:11,640 Speaker 2: but you know and obviously you some people don't like drugs. 482 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 2: I love drugs drugs, and I have a very very 483 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 2: open dialogue and outstanding So when I talk about like 484 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 2: microdosing LSD, it's like an eighth of what I would 485 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:23,360 Speaker 2: take if I were macrodising. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, 486 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 2: you're taking an eighth so you have the ability to 487 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 2: charge up and like, Okay, in two hours, I take 488 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 2: another one and if I'm having But it's it's all 489 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 2: about being outside and nature. Like MDMA is a huge 490 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 2: heart opener. If you can microdose MDMA, or you could 491 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,200 Speaker 2: go to like couples counseling with MDMA, you will probably 492 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:43,920 Speaker 2: have a very happy ending to your marriage or continue 493 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 2: your marriage. Like it just takes the ego out of 494 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,439 Speaker 2: everything and you are fullulfilled with love. Every time I 495 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 2: do MDMA, I'm like, why are we not all on MDMA. 496 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 2: It's so much fun and like, you don't have to 497 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 2: do it to the degree where it is depleting your serotonin. 498 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 2: That's not even an iss you like, I don't do 499 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 2: it like that. I just like I'll go skiing and 500 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 2: take a little LSD, or I'll go out with my 501 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 2: friends to a club in New York and take a 502 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:11,960 Speaker 2: little MDMA. I'm not out of my mind. I'm just vibing, 503 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 2: and like. 504 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:14,400 Speaker 1: It makes me. 505 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,400 Speaker 2: See the nature and things that I normally wont when 506 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 2: it see whatever you're cut off to. It opens like 507 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 2: I don't appreciate nature the way that I do now 508 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 2: because of drugs. I didn't appreciate the trees or the 509 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,199 Speaker 2: sky or the stars, or going outside and looking at 510 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,959 Speaker 2: the moon. I'm like, why are we outside? We can 511 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,440 Speaker 2: see the moon from inside, you know, like those kinds 512 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 2: of things. It really opened me up to to where 513 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 2: I can slow down and actually take in a vista, 514 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 2: or I go on a hike and I stop and 515 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 2: I look, and I'm not just trying there. I'm not 516 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 2: just there to exercise. So it's kind of whatever you're 517 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 2: deficient in, it will fill up the whole. And also 518 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 2: it just makes you so much softer with people, Like 519 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 2: you know now when I like, I understand people who 520 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:01,680 Speaker 2: are not smart much better. Okay I did before. 521 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:02,440 Speaker 1: That's a break. 522 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 2: I used to have no patience for people who were 523 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 2: stupid or did stupid things. I'd be like, that's just 524 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 2: too dumb. Not that I don't do stupid things. But 525 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:12,640 Speaker 2: I I just had no patience for others, and now 526 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 2: I do. I understand now that everyone is dealing with 527 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 2: something and there's a reason why some people are acting 528 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 2: more stupid than others, like and to be to be 529 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 2: compassionate about it instead of judgmental, you know. So that's 530 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,160 Speaker 2: something I'm always I'm always working on my judgment because 531 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 2: I have I'm a harsh critic and of myself and 532 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:33,160 Speaker 2: of others, So I really like to just drop the judgment. 533 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 2: I'm always looking for whatever drug helps me do that. 534 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,680 Speaker 1: Okay, Well that's great. What would you say is the 535 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:44,639 Speaker 1: most overrated adult achievement we're all pretending is amazing? Like, 536 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 1: for example, Trump just got a participation award from FIFA. 537 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 1: That's like this peace prize some bullshit, and everyone's thinking 538 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: he did it was definitely. 539 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 2: Approach to shitting his pants. What did he get an 540 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:01,199 Speaker 2: award for? 541 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,399 Speaker 1: No one fucking knows way to go. 542 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 2: We know that he should. First of all, FIFA is 543 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,400 Speaker 2: like one of the most corrupt organizations of all time, 544 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:09,879 Speaker 2: isn't it. 545 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: Please? 546 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, so well there you go. 547 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: Well, what you say is the most overrated achievement as 548 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:19,959 Speaker 1: an adult that we all keep pretending is amazing getting married. 549 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:24,719 Speaker 2: It's like, you know, that's not I learned that.

And like 561 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,199 Speaker 2: dancing in a white dress. It just is so silly 562 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 2: to me. It feels very antiquated, like the whole idea 563 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 2: of it, Like I can't watch, I'll end up getting married. 564 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,120 Speaker 2: But you know, like who knows.

But what I do love 579 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:06,240 Speaker 1: most and admire most about you is your ability to 580 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 1: speak up with things that matter. I love your activism 581 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: like I think than I do, because I do think 582 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 1: it's important. I think people who have a lot to lose, 583 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 1: which I would consider you as like someone who's built 584 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 1: this beautiful life, and like, you have a lot to lose, 585 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:26,240 Speaker 1: and you don't fucking care, and you're very clear about 586 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: things that matter to you, whether it's politics, women's rights, 587 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 1: my queer community, Like you really don't hide from it, 588 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 1: and you really stand up for the things you believe in. 589 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 1: And I'm like, what makes you feel that this is 590 00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 1: so important to speak about these things, especially in the 591 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 1: chaos and the political climate that's going on. First, just 592 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 1: like fucking kicking rocks and doing your own shit and 593 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,120 Speaker 1: not worrying about it, Like it takes a lot of 594 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 1: vulnerability and bravery to choose that, and not every person 595 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: in Holly what. 596 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 2: Does No, no, and thank you. I just I, you know, 597 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 2: I do what I what I can't, what I have 598 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 2: to do, what I think I have to do. I 599 00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 2: don't do a lot of overthinking about I mean, I 600 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 2: think about elegant not elegant ways, you know. Discerning. I'm 601 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 2: very discerning, more discerning about when to say something and 602 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:25,720 Speaker 2: how to say it instead of screaming and yelling and crying. 603 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 2: Isn't the way to get a message across. It's being 604 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:31,040 Speaker 2: calm and happy and joyful, you know, Like that's the 605 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 2: best way to get a message across. Is actually not 606 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 2: being threatening to another person. So that took me a 607 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,080 Speaker 2: few years because I used to just like go off 608 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 2: on things all the time without really having any circumspect 609 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:45,240 Speaker 2: about it or being circumspect about it. And so I 610 00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 2: think I've learned over the years that it's like important 611 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 2: when you do weigh in what you're saying and how 612 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 2: you're saying it. So I just I take that into consideration. 613 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 2: But I'm never going to be a person that doesn't 614 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 2: stand up for I mean I was like that in 615 00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 2: third grade when a girl had to like eat by 616 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 2: yourself in a corner. I mean I remember her name, 617 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 2: you know. I was like, there's no way we're allowing 618 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 2: that to happen, you know, like we're not going to 619 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:08,920 Speaker 2: leave some girl alone in a corner, you know, Like 620 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 2: I've always been like that. I just don't want That's 621 00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:15,320 Speaker 2: It's the most natural human instinct is like would I 622 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 2: like that? No, So this person probably doesn't like being 623 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 2: targeted and discriminated against because they've chosen to be public 624 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 2: about feeling like a human being. You know what it makes, 625 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:31,760 Speaker 2: what it takes. So I think being supportive of others 626 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 2: is really just like the main ingredient in any person 627 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 2: I would ever have in my life. Like I couldn't 628 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 2: be friends with people who who don't know what's going 629 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 2: on or don't care well. 630 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 1: I mean not these days, like it just has gotten 631 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 1: to be so hateful and so unhinged and people like 632 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 1: there is no in between. It's very It's how do 633 00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 1: you protect your joy and boundaries in this because of work, 634 00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 1: because your work does overlap with in politics and totally. 635 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 2: But I'm I'm pretty like I'm in Canada now. I 636 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 2: come for a month. I'm not on social media. I'm 637 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 2: not reading the news every day. I read the news 638 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 2: once a week because I don't need to be fired 639 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 2: up every single day and have it steal my joy. 640 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 2: I already did that for one term, and I'm not 641 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:20,960 Speaker 2: doing it this time. But I definitely am, you know, 642 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 2: link a clue in to the healthiest in the healthiest 643 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 2: way that I can be instead of like, you know, 644 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 2: scrolling all day. 645 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 1: Long on my phone. 646 00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 2: I don't do that anymore. 647 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:31,520 Speaker 1: Crazy. 648 00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 2: I don't read the news all day long. I don't 649 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,200 Speaker 2: look for updates. It's easier being in Canada. That's why 650 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 2: I remove myself. You know, it's one of the greatest 651 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 2: things about being up here. And nobody's talking. I mean, 652 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 2: people are talking about it, but they're not talking about 653 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 2: it to the extent that I'm living in it. So 654 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:48,920 Speaker 2: I find that that's a healthy balance for me. I 655 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 2: did the same thing this year in Spain. I went 656 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 2: to Spain for three weeks. I didn't I didn't look 657 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,240 Speaker 2: at the news. I listened to a bunch of political podcasts, 658 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 2: but I did not read the news, yeah, for about 659 00:32:57,560 --> 00:32:59,479 Speaker 2: a week and a half at one point, And I 660 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:02,360 Speaker 2: just think that those breaks make it easier to understand 661 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 2: and be calm, Like I really feel like the most 662 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 2: important disposition is to maintain some a state of like equanimity, 663 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 2: to know, like, Okay, I'm safe, everyone that I love 664 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:16,560 Speaker 2: is safe. This is a terrible situation. This man is crazy. 665 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 2: The system is about to collapse. It is how I feel.
