“Confusion is the greatest form of communication”. This quote by Salvador Dalí inspires Mycopreneur as he serves the psychedelic space daily doses of reflection through humor and confusion. His satirical media platform Mycopreneur (similar to the Onion) offers a good laugh and uncovers some of the hidden dynamics at play while psychedelics are going mainstream.
ABOUT OUR GUEST
Dennis Walker is a satirist, journalist, and puppeteer who has recently pivoted into the psychedelic space after watching How to Change Your Mind on Netflix. He was immediately inspired to launch a psychedelic-focused brand, and used half of his earnings from a successful Cirque du Soleil knock off freak show in Eastern Europe to hire a world class PR Agency in LA to help cultivate an air of authority in the psychedelic renaissance. He now regularly lectures and goes on podcasts, and is hoping to strike it rich when psychedelics become the new cannabis.
