Christian Ratsch - 50 Years of Mushroom Experience

Here is a video of Christian Ratsch giving a casual and deeply inspired talk at a trance party . Ratsch is the world's foremost scholar/researcher of shamanic plants and cultures. Author several phenomenal books including the 1000 page tome, The Encyclopedia of Psychoactive Plants. I had the pleasure of socializing with him (and other luminaries) in 2000 at Palenque, Mexico and I can attest to his psychedelic charm. Nice storyteller, too. I highly recommend the earlier, more formal presentation, 'Psychoactivity: The Fountain of Culture'. This newer video is in German with English subtitles. Enjoy!
