Entheogen Joe, Brad, Kevin

We invited our friend Bobby Lyte to join us for an awesome conversation about flow states, focus, deep work, and fun. Bobby is a DJ, producer, software engineer, and the host of Flow State – a podcast to help you focus.

We discuss topics including the states of flow: Struggle, Release, Flow, Recovery; Engineering; Managing, and of course, Management.


"Should we be communicating all the time? Most workplaces today are essentially turning humans into message senders and receivers – which is terrible for productivity. We're trying to solve complex problems. We need to focus and stay in a problem space to solve those problems, and the work environments are not helping us get there." – Bobby Lyte @ 32:13

"Revisiting a previous thesis of mine that's been established in the show: Management…" – Brad @ 34:04

"Your lack of planning is not my emergency." – Joe Zap @ 38:06

"The temptation to multitask – I could get ahead a little bit if I just send this email while I drive and eat and read the newspaper at the same time." – Kevin @ 40:30

We were so honored to be joined by Mitchell Gomez, Executive Director of DanceSafe, a public health organization promoting health and safety within the nightlife and electronic music community.

Mitchell is on the advisory council of both Psymposia and PsychSems, a Harm Reduction Consultant at the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS), and have sat on the CU Denver MURPAA (Master of Urban and Regional Planning Alumni Association) board, the Jefferson County Community Development Advisory Board, and the Denver Drug Strategy Commission Data Subcommittee.

Note: We recorded this interview in the summer of 2020. Like many things in 2020 the airing of the show was postponed as we regrouped and refocused, and now we're psyched to be posting this long-awaited show. Hope you enjoy!

Launching the new season of Entheogen and just in time for the new year, we have a very special treat for listeners – and viewers! It was such honor to be joined by a huge supporter of the psychedelic renaissance, David Bronner, CEO – that's Cosmic Engagement Officer – of Dr. Bronner's Magic Soaps.
Thanks so much to our friend David for the great conversation!

Your friends from Entheogen were honored to be quoted in a Playboy article about Toxic Masculinity.

A very special Entheogen in which we discuss the habitual use of cannabis and why and how to curb it.

Hi everyone, we’re still here, we’re still producing Entheogen, and we’re looking forward to producing more! How are you doing? Let us know how you are managing in the “new normal” and what you want to hear about in future episodes of Entheogen.

In this episode, we discuss the current state of affairs with much of the world in quarantine due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and we try to stay positive.

Note that we recorded this back at the end of March 2020, and while things felt like they were moving quickly then, and the situation continues to evolve, the sentiment is fairly similar now as we finally post this episode. We’re staying positive and strong and hope you all are too.

Thanks for listening!
