  • 🔍 The TSA agent meticulously examined the items, ultimately confiscating only the box cutter blade and returning the LSD.
  • 💡 Prof explains he uses LSD for microdosing to enhance focus and energy during long workdays, comparing it to a strong cup of coffee.

High School Antics and Pep Rallies

  • 🎤 Prof shares that he started rapping in high school as a way to navigate a challenging environment and avoid trouble.

Touring Mishaps and Personal Loss

Parenting and Future Aspirations

South by Southwest and Performance Challenges
