This week's episode is a crazy one, focusing on Ken Kesey and The Merry Pranksters. Matt reports on Ken and his group of friends who were experimenting with LSD and bought a bus in 1964 to travel across the USA. Inspired by the Beat Generation and prior to the psychedelic generation of the later 1960s this group were just trying to create a life and future for themselves. It's a fascinating story which has been documented in film and books, which we mention on the pod.
We also end up with new nicknames; Matt Magnificent and Lorna Barely Visible.
