Mindstate Design Labs, backed by Silicon Valley power players, has created what its CEO calls "the least psychedelic psychedelic that's psychoactive." While there's growing evidence that psychedelic drugs can effectively treat severe mental health conditions, especially in cases where traditional treatments have failed, they still come with downsides. Their hallucinogenic effects can be scary and overwhelming, with dosing sessions lasting several hours. Good treatment is heavily reliant on the individual's mindset going into a session and the environment in which they receive it. And though it's rare, psychedelics can sometimes worsen existing mental illness.

Research into whether drugs like ayahuasca can mitigate the effects of traumatic brain injury is in its infancy. Pro athletes like the Buffalo Bills' Jordan Poyer are forging ahead anyway. Roam the wide-open halls and cavernous showrooms of the Colorado Convention Center during Psychedelic Science, the world's largest psychedelics conference, and you'll see exhibitors hawking everything from mushroom jewelry, to chewable gummies containing extracts of the psychoactive succulent plant kanna, to broad flat-brim baseball caps emblazoned with "MDMA" and "IBOGA." Booths publicize organizations such as the Ketamine Taskforce and the Psychedelic Parenthood Community, and even, a live-action feature film looking to attract investors. It's a motley, multifarious symposium where indigenous-plant-medicine healers mingle with lanyard-clad pharma-bros, legendary underground LSD chemists, and workaday stoners tottering around in massive red and white toadstool hats that make them look like that cute little mushroom guy from . And yet, oddest among such oddities may be the sight of enormously burly NFL tough guys talking candidly about their feelings.

How do you make music sound cool? How can you explain why the soundtrack to, say, any of the spy films of the 1960s still sound cool decades later? How can Foxy Lady still get into your body and make you groove so much, 55 years since Jimi Hendrix laid down those slick licks? Jungle, Thundercat or Lil Nas X might be able to tell you – but so can the people behind the soundtrack to Deathloop, one of the most effortlessly classy-looking (and sounding) games in years. Arkane's mind-bending sci-fi thought experiment is a masterclass in cool.

His Grace, Kyle, First of His Name, the King of Sbury, takes us along on his royal progress through a host of bro-tastic topics, from BJJ to Bitcoin, and keto to killer robots. He's a retired UFC fighter, a diet and fitness enthusiast, a psychedelic spokesperson, and a modern-day seeker. This conversation goes, and as you can see, there are many notes to enjoy. When you're done working through those, be sure to check out Kingsbu on Twitter and Instagram (and to envy his dope lifestyle, as we all do here at MoonBase Bro).
