cool. obviously its on 420. someone tape it for those that dont have TV (i guess it will be on interweb eventually)...

here is a blurb from a random blog:

"Peyote to LSD: A Psychedelic Odyssey

Premiere airing on The History Channel April 20, 2008

Plant Explorer Richard Evans Schultes was a real life
Indiana Jones whose
discoveries of hallucinogenic plants laid the
foundation for the psychedelic
sixties.

Now in this two hour History Channel TV Special, his
former student Wade Davis,
follows in his footsteps to experience the discoveries
that Schultes brought to
the western world.

Shot around the planet, from Canada to the Amazon, we
experience rarely seen
native hallucinogenic ceremonies and find out the true
events leading up to the
Psychedelic Sixties.

Featuring author/adventurer Wade Davis ("Serpent and
the Rainbow"), Dr. Andrew
Weil, the Grateful Dead's Bob Weir and many others,
this program tells the story
of the discovery of pey ote, magic mushrooms and
beyond: one man's little known
quest to classify the Plants of the Gods.

Richard Evans Schultes revolutionized science and
spawned another revolution he never
imagined.

Director:

Peter von Puttkamer
