Award-winning comedian Shane Mauss delivers a two-part psychedelic comedy special for a vicarious trip wrapped in 360° visuals.
Filmed inside Denver’s legendary venue Meow Wolf, visuals from 20 psychedelic artists are mixed in real-time by VJ Michael Strauss to bring Shane’s material and the psychedelic experience to life.
In the First Dose, Shane explores the strange history of LSD, the eternal mushrooms-versus-acid debate, and what to make of “bad trips.”
No experience? No problem. Your psychedelic surrogate has arrived.
Second Dose available May 19
