Midwest AF

That time we saw comedians on shrooms

Liz Woods / Jen Liss Season 1 Episode 2

Standup comedy is difficult enough — imagine delivering it with hallucinogens in your system. 

In this episode, Liz and Jen discuss one of their most Portlandian experiences yet: the time they went to see comedians attempt to deliver their regular comedic sets after taking magic mushrooms.

Jen found this event in the way most amazing things are found in Portland: off a flyer on a telephone pole. When she shared it with Liz, they knew they had to see this comedy gold for themselves. 

Listen in to hear our hosts’ Midwestern hearts worry for the comedians, wonder about the other audience members, and all the ways they made themselves uncomfortable so as not to disturb anyone else’s good time.

Will they ever go back to another shroomy comedy event? Would they attempt mushroom standup themselves? What’s their stance on the whole mushroom culture lauded by their Pacific Northwest friends
