Alexander Bard is an absolute wild man from Sweden.

He lives a monastic life as what he calls a Zufi, which is one part Zoroastrian, which he's

officially a member of, ancient religion and one part exploring the wisdom of the Sufi mystic so he calls it Zufi with the Z.

So we talk about Zoroastrianism, we talk about his life as an erotic monk coming from

Sweden and just have a wild and interesting conversation with this brash and energetic and wise monk of the world Alexander Bard.

So I hope you guys enjoy this conversation as much as I do.

And now a word from our sponsors. First up we have mud water. Now you guys have probably heard

me talk about mud water for the past few years and recently I actually got to

meet in person the founder Shane Heath an amazing human being who makes an

amazing product that I still use all the time now how do I use it? Well mudwaters

a coffee alternative it has a bit of the caffeine that comes from the tea, but it also

has a bunch of functional mushrooms and a bunch of different other goodies like a cow and all

these delicious things without all of the sweeteners that you find in a lot of these different mixes as well.

So what I do in the morning is I put in a little gee, I put in a little cashew butter, I sprinkle in some mud water, I add my favorite protein,

I blend it up and it has become the famous Aubrey morning drink.

And they also have non-caffeinated versions which has become the famous Aubrey

Evening Drink. Mud water is a part of my life and it's a part of my life for a

good reason. It's just a great reason. It's Whole30 approved, 100% USDA certified

organic, non-GMO, gluten-free, vegan, kosher, and it's awesome. And also,

Mudwater donates monthly to support psychedelic research.

And it has since day one.

Mudwaters are people.
