Here’s What Aaron Rodgers Had to Say at the Psychedelics Conference in Colorado

Aaron Rodgers loves his psychedelic drugs.  So much so that he spoke at a psychedelics conference in Denver earlier this week, and pushed for legalization.

He said, quote, “Is it not ironic that the things that actually expand your mind are illegal and the things that keep you in the lower chakras and dumb you down have been legal for centuries?”

He also talked about his “radically life-changing” experience with ayahuasca, and challenged the BUMS who come after him for trying it.  He even suggested that it made him BETTER at football when he took it in 2019.

Quote, “It’s going to be hard to cancel me, because, you know, the previous year, 26 touchdowns, four interceptions.  We had a good season.

“Ayahuasca, 48 touchdowns, five interceptions, MVP.  What are you going to say?”

But after Ayahuasca, you willingly joined the New York Jets.  So, counterpoint?
