And so two very different worlds, but I just kind of,

floated in between those two things for my entire childhood.

So, um, it's, uh, my, I think my background is underwhelming, but I guess it could be interesting to somebody.

I think we have at some point or another.

But I never really drank.

Alcohol was never my thing.

There was times, I think, when I was younger and going pretty hard on the road and stuff that I would just because...

That was kind of just what you do.

But I never really liked alcohol.

And I always, you know, enjoy it.

And I always just, you know, when I sit there and like weigh the benefits and like which one's worse for you and which one can ruin your life and which one's not going to ruin your life.

Right.

weed has always been the lesser of the two.

Um, and I just, I don't know.

I, uh, I did some of the best songs I've ever written in my career.

I wrote just, you know, after taking a little hit and, and just kind of letting it go.

It just, it sparks, it's, you know, some of the greatest records of all time are written stoned.

How old were you when you did the DMT?

Oh,

This is crazy.
