Jamie Wheal, author of Stealing Fire and Recapture the Rapture, and the viral article The Man WILL Burn!, joins Stuart to unpack the cultural anthropology of peak states.

They explore how Black Rock City serves as a crucible for thriving in the future. 

They deep dive into:

  • Hedonic Engineering: Inducing bliss without cravings, healing without the cringe, and communing without it becoming a cult.
  • The Culture of Culture: How movements morph, why BRC’s builders are like Navy SEALs, and resetting through radical participation.
  • Practical Optimism: Letting go of 21st Century normal, and keeping your shit together in the shitshow.

Watch them un-forget how to make that magic anywhere.
