Yes, it is quite interesting that super conservative Canadian ex-Defence Minister Paul Hellyer would speak out on UFO disclosure at this time in history..however, it doesn’t appear anything will be coming out of our government on this matter anythime soon, despite Hellyer’s plea for authorities to spill the beans…It is interesting to hear what he has to say, nonetheless, as he takes us down the rabbit hole of aliens, illuminati, elites, power and coverups, in his 20 minute talk.

And as Google Glass begins its journey onto the heads of everyone, it is starting to run into a little resistance.  Some people (and places), it appears, still get upset about being recorded without their explicit permission. Privacy issues are once again being discussed as Glass renders the Zoie chip in the scifi film Final Cut, a reality.  Yet, it is inevitable that resistance is futile.  Why?  Dr. Future expounds a bit on this on the show..

If you have any desire to save the world and/or make it a better place to live, you’ll enjoy listening to our in studio guest this week, Lars Ling.  A Swede on a mission, he founded Clean Tech Region Magazine to connect and inform a growing cadre of humans interested in eco friendly “Clean Tech. ”  He is traveling through the USA right now, speaking and connecting with companies, academics, and individuals about this rising global phenomenon with its start in Sweden, a place that embraces this nature-based technology evolution.

Interestingly, Lar’s magazine was recently bought by International Data Group, a consortium of publication, events, and technology that gave me my first start in high tech writing at Infoworld.. a tip of the hat to Pat McGovern, who started all this and gave me a break in the early days  :-)

Next week we’ll be recording our show from Vienna, Austria at the FutureWeek Salon, with some future leaning Austrians!

Google Takeover Plans, 17 Billion Earths to be Discovered In Milky Way, Interview- Mystic Chemist - Albert Hofmann and his Discovery of LSD

Listen Now to Dr. Future Show 4.23.13

The Boston Bombing is still news, and we cover our pov on this impactful event, including where tech worked and failed in the investigative process.  As Google expands their fiber networks to more and more cities, we explore how all this massive impact will change the landscape of high tech players. Meanwhile NASA is finding new places for us to go and explore, once we figure out how..

And back on Earth, there is a renaissance of sorts that is happening in the world of medicinal psychedelics.  After 40 years of legislative prohibition, the noose on serious psychedelic research is starting to loosen with many new studies in their efficacy for treating issues like narcotic drug addictions, Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome, and deep depression.

Our guest this week is Swiss author Dieter Hagenbach, co-author (with Lucius Werthmuller) of the just published book, Mystic Chemist, about the life and discovery of LSD, in the Swiss labs of Sandoz Pharmaceuticals, back in 1938.  Not just the average biochem geek, Hoffman’s spiritual nature helped shape his explorations of this most powerful mind change agent, and spawn a new generation of turned on youth.

And now that that first psychedelic generation of the 1960’s are grandparents, we see a return to basic therapetuic and medical research, back to where it all began in Switzerland, 70 years ago.

We had a chance to interview both authors of Mystic Chemist at the Psychedelic Science 2013 conference in Oakland a few days ago, where we go into more detail than what could be done on the air.  You also have a chance to meet Lucius Werthmuller, co-author with Dieter Hagenbach  of this amazing book.   This more in depth interview can be heard  by clicking here:
