It’s cool Theo includes Jamie so much, just with looking over to him and saying his name etc, I haven’t seen a lot of guests do that. Says a lot about Theo, good dude.
Its because his producer Nick is such an important part of his pods and the fact that he doesn't really want anyone left out. Especially those he can riff with/ off of.
The 3 second rule is a good way to make someone feel involved in the conversation, even if they're not saying anything. If you're speaking to everyone you alternate eye contact 3 seconds apart. Makes people want to listen because it's not perceived that you're excluding them
This is the beauty of Theo. He isn't afraid to lay it all on the table, be as vulnerable as humanly possible, then so effortlessly go back into the jokes
Whenever I see Theo go through these type of journeys I always worry he will become become too serious. But then he always comes back with the funniest stuff
Ketamine, lsd and psilocybin containing mushroom are amazing. I got diagnosed with OCD since my teenage. Also suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my mom recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 6 years totally clean. Much respect to mother nature the great magic shrooms.
Congrats on your recovery. Most persons never realizes psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives. Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death bud, lets be honest here.
Can you help me with the reliable source 🙏. I'm 56 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Germany. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them.
YES very sure of Dr.benfungi. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
Mushrooms are very medicinal. This is why anybody familiar with psilocybin and any other kind of fungi will tell you, "They are alive." They have a very ancient wisdom. To my experience, all mushrooms have always said, "Pay attention to your life. How you think, how you feel, and what will you do with the information that you always knew, but now are seeing in this point of view." This is why mushrooms are so respected in tribal cultures. This mental health treatment works for me too. Half micro doses do the trick for me. At least a few days at a time with lengthy time in between. Never addictive. Thank you for sharing this point!
Start with a dirty south mullet. Someone in this day and age fearlessly rocking one of the greatest, most misunderstood hairstyles the world has ever known since the dutch-boy is a true authentic cultural hero.
Actually I think that if you re not humble you actually are not really confident. Just lying to you that you are confident, but there are still some things you need to get over
Do the two occur together rarely, though? I think those who are truly confident are also humble. It’s that arrogance can often be disguised as confidence. Arrogance is confidence on cocaine, so the humility gets lost.
if you take high doses of ketamine thats what happens. It might not make sense to people but there is no other way to describe it besides whatever wacky thing you felt like. I was once convinced I was a penguin made of geometric shapes inside an abstract painting
Theos one of a kind. He's got an exuberant personality but very down to earth. Him and Joe synergize well and their podcasts always feel natural. Some of the best ones IMO.
He is far from down to earth. Hes fkn nuts. Are you for real? He sent a picture of 2 naked dudes and a child on a bed to to his whole college and tought it was normal. He's bat crazy.
@@jonathan2755 I don’t know if that’s true, nor do I care, but imagine if everyone judged you on any single action or behaviour, especially without knowing anything about the context, the reasoning, or your state of mind, and then from that forming a conclusive view on who you are as a person. This kind of unfair judgment is contagious and is just shit-level human behaviour.
Ketamine therapy is incredible. As someone who suffered from ptsd, depression, and suicide it helped heal my brain in a way which I never thought was possible. Truly a life savor. It’s always hard to articulate the experience to others but Theo hit the nail right on the head.
Theo has some of the most memorable, off-the-cuff lines I have ever heard! He is never dull and always has the most interesting, unexpected descriptions. His mind is a treasure:)
@@moomoocowsly pretty sure your about 70 points off there, wise guy. 170 would put him above einstein. no matter how much crack you may smoke, surely you gotta know that and are joking....surely
Love that Theo isn’t ashamed of being someone who shares his feelings a lot. So many other guys would fold or justify but he accepts himself and that’s great.
I’m currently doing iv ketamine treatments for depression, anxiety, and ptsd and it’s helped so much. My last session is tomorrow and this has worked more than anything I’ve tried
My daughter has depression and self committed herself once. We've read about it but so far our HMO won't pay for the treatment. Did you have to pay for it yourself, or did your insurance cover it? Thanks.
@@jamesschiller1859 depending on where you go and the referral you get from the doctor, they will accept insurance. I paid out of pocket, but it’s worth mentioning to the doctor. I’m actually happy to be alive because of these along with continued therapy
Sounds like you've been through a lot brook. I used to do ketamine recreationally in my early 20's. A whole lot. Me and my friend used to sniff it, fall into a k hole, snap out of it and make a bunch of crazy music. The stuff can make you very creative but only after you come down from it. How long after the K wears off untill you feel better? I noticed the effects almost immediately afterwards. I used to call it the twilight zone.
@Jr V honestly it depends on the location/state and what you need done. I got my first set of 6 done in November of 2021 and it was almost 4,000 out of pocket in Vancouver Washington, I’ve since moved back home to Montana and am due for a booster session, however because it’s been so long I have to do 6 sessions over again, they will just be spread out more, thankfully in the state of Montana, Medicaid which I’m on covers these treatments. Some other insurances may also cover some of it, but not a lot of people are informed on the insurance aspect of it and it saves a lot of hassle. Definitely keep up on the maintenance of it if you’re looking into it, but it’s been extremely beneficial, at least for me. You have to go in with an open mind, make sure you’re going to therapy, wanting to truly heal from past trauma and make a change. I documented each of my sessions and had someone with me each time and it was so crazy. Definitely cried each time, but it was literally over 2 decades of built up trauma and tears that I’ve just kept in that came flooding out during these sessions. What happened in 2 weeks, I couldn’t do in over 25 years and I’m 31 now. It’s definitely a life changing experience, but it’s also not for everyone.
Man, you put Joe and Theo together on a mic and I could watch ALL DAY. Theo says some Theo shit, and Joe finds it almost as funny as I do. Then seeing him laugh about it, makes it that much funnier to me. These effers truly make me happy.
There is going to be a time when he gets older and he will try to express his intellect and wisdom in a serious way because he already expresses his knowledge and intellect in a mature humoristic way but nobody takes it seriously so when he gets to the point where he is going to talk seriously about a subject people are not going to value it. Theo Vonn is the reincarnation of mark twain
Well it seems like he was trying to communicate that he still felt like something was missing despite achieving some level of success, and that he might have thought success was going to fix that. Should it be that way? Is it really true that life always has to carry this nagging feeling of emptiness?
I love how Joe slowly but very smoothly diverts the topic at the end, changing completely the mood for Theo into laughter, don't know if it was on purpose but that's at least what I got from it 🙌 a real friend always
@@Touchit344 yeah he’s definitely not, if I do recall he’s done DMT once and shrooms on occasion but not enough to be addicted. Pot is the one thing he does often but it’s not crazy bad
As someone who’s been given ketamine through a IV ( mine was due to getting a tube put in my chest to fix a collasped lung ) I can say the ride is wild! It’s one hell of a thing.. and I’m not new to using substances to alter one’s state of mind.
I swear comedians are the deepest and smartest people. It takes a lot of intelligence to make people laugh. And these are the people that are okay with telling you the “weird” stuff. They have the most creative minds.
The american version really bastardized that part of the series, the doll says "Red light, Green light" and then turns around but in the US version she just says Green light and then waits, but there is no waiting period in the OG version.
Psychedelic’s definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again but it’s just so hard to source here
Psychedelics are the reason why i didn’t take my life when i was at my end. I was stripped of my ego and saw the beauty of life and interconnectivity and even though i still battle anxiety and depression, I’m doing better everyday and will never think in such a self destructive way again.
LSD and mushrooms completely changed my whole outlook on life. I became a better version of myself This experience gave me a lot of confidence about my self and my body. A bunch of bad thought / behavior patterns were broken. One of these was pretty bad OCD that made me wash my hands a lot. It gave me a lot of hope that things will be fine, this is the one thing that I heard throughout the trip: Everything is alright. The main reason for the trip was my severe depression and it definitely helped me (although it's not gone). Before all I could do was lay in bed. Now I am trying to rebuild my life one step at a time which wasn't possible before."
Last year, I took shrooms at Las Vegas thinking it was going to hit like an edible or something. Shit was scary at first but amazing once you start getting deeper into your thoughts
Finally the ratking is back on JRE! I'm addicted to any theo von related content. I truly hope theo finds a solution to whatever has been bothering him for the past couple of years.
My dad passed in 2018. I took LSD and felt the same thing in 2020, had a 'conversation' with my dad and grandad. They told me we are all brothers in death. Really intense and I'm grateful I dropped that night.
@0:37 Theo's face when Joe asks him "Did you trip balls?" those 2 seconds before he gets to "Bro!" are friggin HILARIOUS! As someone who's had WAY too much "tripping balls" myself -- no lie -- something about his nonverbal communication in that moment is SO genuine as he re-remembers the ketamine (or Special K as we called it) that it practically GAVE ME flashbacks --! Which is extra crazy bc even after >1000 trips i don't know that I've EVER had one of the so-called "flashbacks" that are so rumored to accompany lsd/mushroom/ketamine. Never in 20 years. But i had a flashback EACH of the 4 or 5 times i rewatched it. So i guess I'm just saying that I'LL VOUCH for Theo 100% on this one. He MEANS it. He TRIPPED BAWZ! ha ha
His perspective on life was already so beautiful he manages to communicate psychedelia without sounding like a raving madman to people who have never done it
I always put JRE on so I can sleep (so it's usually episodes I've listened to already). I hadn't listened to the new Theo episode yet. Fell asleep & woke back up- When I woke up and heard 'so tell me about when you thought you were a tonsil', I thought I was dreaming still. 😂😂😂 When I realized this was the actual convo- I couldn't stop laughing. I love this podcast and really appreciate Theo sharing such personal moments. 💗
It’s good Theo is not settling for anything and really looking for answers for that Void he feels inside. Sounds like he has realized the material success is not the answer. The authentic search is the path to freedom I feel like. Good luck brother. 🙏🏽
I'm getting there myself dude...moved from my home city of Sydney to Melbourne for better pay and have realised how much friends, family and community mean to me after years of thinking I was an island. I'm going back there end of year, I know I'll be paid a fair bit less but will be way better off.
I also got 6 injections in the Ketamine paid clniical trials in Jan 2020 before I decided to get ECT, for 20+ year depression. First session was pretty intense, second was enjoyable, after that they were too weak. Sadly, no impact on my Depression (as I expected) but no lasting side effects like ECT. I eventually went to a Psychologist to get tested for ADHD and Adderall has significantly improved my quality of life way more than any of the probably 25+ depression meds I've been prescribed over the years.
@Jr V coming from a guy who was taking Ritalin for adhd. When you have adhd, side effects only start happening when your dosage is too high. Other than that, it doesn’t have side effects.
i feel like General Practitioners handing out depression meds is a super harmful practice that shouldn't be allowed. All the patient knows is "shit sucks, I want it to be better" and the Doctor says, "here is an SSRI, lemme know", ignoring how many other neurotransmitters could be responsible or how CBT could solve the problem with no meds at all... The patient normally does notice an improvement, but why? It could be that an imbalance of serotonin was the problem and they got lucky.. or it could be they gained confidence by taking a positive action toward mental health and that alone helped? Placebo? Any improvement is welcome, right? Some may not get any benefit or develop symptoms that are still bad but different.... All I'm saying is, when an airplane needs engine work, you don't take it to an auto mechanic. Don't trust your brain health to a body doctor.
I was a very shy depressed kid. When we were about 18 we . Snorted a third of a vile each and it still was the most prolific experience we ever had. Upon reflection it seems that it cured my shyness and studdering lmfao.
@2girls 1cup Probably a joke, but I'll answer anyways. Honestly it would probably make them worse. On shrooms at least, an idea snags you, and you can't let go of it. I think worrying about being gay on shrooms will put you into the "questioning" category really fucking quick. I remember telling my buddies I was with that I loved them, with an awkward "as friends, not in a gay way" at the end. I was thinking about how not gay I am for like an hour, and then I tried to understand how being gay works. It was not a good time. At the end of the day I still don't get it, so I guess I'm alright.
@@Yeliab417 Not just for help but to refocus them. Have you ever heard a train go by while tripping? Completely resets your mindstate. The noise becomes everything.
I’ve blasted the fuck off on ketamine and haven’t ever experienced vivid hallucinations like that so now I’m wondering if the dose they give you in a treatment center through IV is actually enough to K hole and to go through what he described or if that was just Theo making an entertaining story for the people lol My experience with ketamine wasn’t hallucinations it was more of like laying in my bed, but my view was from the top right corner of my room and if I watched RU-vid videos I felt like I was friends with the people in it lmao so maybe it was similar to that for him when he thought about his parents. The best part for me was how it was non addictive, zero comedown and completely took away depression for like 3 months and I mean being depressed, anxious, etc. for 6 years straight and It allowed me to remember what I used to feel like, before I felt like that and I was productive as fuck for that whole year I was taking it every other week or month. Would definitely try it if you have treatment resistant depression.
Joe’s a wizard man. As soon as Theo started down that dark path of not feeling appreciated Joe brought up his fav joke to make him laugh. I hope Theo gets the help he needs I love that dude. Legend
