I could’ve used some today!!!
ReplyExtreme stress!!!
I have had some “moments” on Shrooms…
ReplyLame AF> Fact: SSRI’s are no more effective for depression than placebo. If someone is helped by finding themselves spiritually… i mean I can think of a lot worse outcomes
ReplyI loved me some ‘shrooms back in the 70’s and 80’s. I wish they’d legalize them here in California too.
ReplyBeen studied as possible treatment for O.C.D. here at the U of AZ
ReplySeriously, LSD > Psilocybin
ReplyI wonder if one of the side effects is the mumbles.
ReplyBut talkin’ to that coyote is sooo tempting.
ReplyI try this when i’m sad and I feel like a fun guy
ReplyYou can tell bill is getting old and out of touch with his stance on shit lately…. poor old dinosaur lol
ReplyI tried Shrooms once, Man what a FANTASTIC experience!!! -Gotta try them again.
ReplyThe one time I did shrooms I swam naked on a hot day in a pristine river in N. California like an otter.
ReplyLMAO Got to love the coyote reference 😉
ReplyMushrooms are all about ‘having a moment’… so.. apt, really.
ReplyI’m in.
ReplyAndrew Yang wanted to legalize shrooms
ReplyWhat if you meet your SO’s parents and they take mushrooms?
ReplyI don’t know if I’d be able to try a mushroom after the Stormy Daniels scandal.
ReplySellout…appears that you joke the natural while claiming synthetics the champion…the only reason synthetics rule: proprietrary…
ReplyI’m not sure of the message. This comes across as a “funny” magic mushroom commercial from the mind of a rebel without a clue.
ReplyHow stupid
ReplyRevelation: “Drinking plenty of fluids may reduce your chance of dehydration.”
ReplyWhat was that Bill? I’m sorry. I can’t really hear you. The Coyote says I shouldn’t talk to you anymore…
Replysoon
ReplyHey , I’d try them if they’d help my depression.
ReplyI want the coyote have my babies
ReplyThis skit is based on stereotypes. Shrooms are incredibly powerful and important. You don’t see things like that. Your conditioning is loosened enough to drop the delusional bullshit. They can bring clarity, not hallucinations.
ReplyMicro-dosing mushrooms is said to have all the positive effects of a full on trip, without the coyote wizard wall melting experience part of it. I’m a 42 year old guy with a good job and a family, and I honestly think that psilocybin, when used properly, has incredible value and amazing potential in today’s world. That being said, talking to wall melting coyote wizards is always a good time too. Each to their own I say.
ReplyGo ask ALICE, when she was just small (and some FAVA BEANS with a NICE CHIANTI) …and ask nicely
Reply#THEKAMALATOEPARTY
White knight is talking backwards
ReplyOnce on a LOT of MDMA I spent 4 hours staring at the magic stars on the road that exploded with different coloured light every 20 seconds as the internal nuclear fission burned the different elements within – it was smashed car window glass under a traffic signal…
ReplyOn the way back I got stuck looking in the window of a cake decoration shop – lost in a world made of fondant icing…
One of the best nights of my life.
Can’t wait.
ReplyBack in the day, you would see a group of us walking slowly face down through a pasture looking for these great anti-depressants growing on cow pies. A quick mornings work and you were good for several months. Psilocybin – Natures little treat.
ReplyBill is to shrooms what Trump is to weed.
ReplyLook at the rocks. Keep looking at them. Play some music.
ReplyMushrooms are NOT legal in oregon. they are decriminalised.
ReplyI’m guessing Maher was on Shrooms when he thought of this ‘groovy’ idea. Why would any sane person take advice from a filthy rich Libertarian who’s always stoned himself?
ReplyThe fact that shrooms are illegal says everything about our culture
Reply‘Shrooms’ are terrific.
ReplyIs anybody else noticing that the fine-print disclaimer actually MAKES SENSE?? 🙂
ReplySkateboarding on mushrooms was like a real life videogame. Only did it once though. My stomach didn’t react well
Reply10 out of 10 stoners recommend this product.
ReplyActually I think Bill gave some to S.E. for this show. Never seen her like this. She always been a strange right wing girl, but wow. Looked high af.
ReplyOregon here, yeah that legalization surprised all of us. Even though I voted for it lol
ReplyInstructions unclear. Talked to the coyote. Now my penis is a mushroom.
ReplyHilarious!
ReplyDeadhead Allman Brothers and Phish fan here. I’m one of those people who tolerate jam bands sober.
ReplyOregon is for sure ahead of everywhere else in the US, but Portugal is still 20 years ahead of everyone. The real criminals are the US drug companies and their endless pit of cash to buy off politicians. The US…where bribery of public officials is 100% legal. Welcome to Somalia.
ReplyBill is for ‘magic mushrooms’ and other psychedelic’s. This is just a ‘comedy bit.’ youtu.be/IB4dFaADJzI
ReplyWait. In the same day, the guy says that criticism on Capitalist it stupid, Twitch is stupid, and drugs are good?
Ageism is real. Maher is becoming an old fart.
Reply‘ i am carlos castenada and i approve this message ‘ …..
ReplyI could see the music waves coming out of the speakers and I could smell and taste the music!!!
ReplyCan I buy shrooms anywhere?
ReplyShades of Timothy Leary
ReplyOh so true!
ReplyWow Bill, surprised to see you not taking this seriously at all while displaying how triggered you are by hippies with stale old jokes and prejudice. People are being cured and their brains are rewiring in healthier ways, grow the fuck up show some respect and appreciation. Such a fuckin boomer take on boomers.
ReplyOther than having some fun with this, what`s Maher`s message ? the Alarm has been sounded STAY AWAY FROM DRUGS, from Bill Maher of all people ?
ReplyOmg Bill’s voice is like it was made for doing those medication commercials
ReplyKudos to the animators!
ReplyI can honestly say microdosing psilocybin has curbed my depression, negative thoughts and helps me see life in a more positive way.
ReplyBack in 2016 I took psilocybin while watching Bill Maher and he turned into Max Headroom. #truestory
ReplyOregon has also decriminalized all personal possession of drugs. You can get your fines for possession waived if you take drug counseling.
ReplyU can’t tell me what to do!!…..here poochy u want pat-pat?
ReplyFun fact, because magic mushrooms grow so readily in the UK it isn’t illegal to pick them, only to process them into another form for consumption. All we ever had to do during the season was find a field with sheep. Sheep aren’t hippies, unlike cows who love ‘shrooms, and they eat around the clumps that grow. Crazy times!
ReplyI thought you were on them every show you Dementiacrat.
ReplyA bag of mushrooms go a long way when your at a gay campground I shared with everyone .
Reply“5 dried grams” Terence McKenna
ReplyUm take it from experience, talk to the coyote and by all means follow the coyote life gets better as the ego dissolves
ReplyDamn right they work better than the crap doctors give you.
ReplyMushrooms are great, but don’t get arrested by the cops and locked up high on them… I don’t recommend it.
Reply0:51 How dare you, mushrooms are the best pizza topping
ReplySounds more like an LSD trip to me. Shrooms are more mild than described here.
ReplyDon’t knock it til ya try it. Wouldn’t it be great if we all actually understood we were the same species rather than breaking it down to race.
Replydumb boomer jokes…
ReplyHoly fuck I just got a gnarly flashback
ReplyMushrooms have been decriminalized in several states as well.
ReplyTake a little trip….
Always look at the coyote, and always go through the door.
ReplyRepubliCONs love that “small government freedom” but want to lock us up or kill us over happy flowers and fungi by that have killed zero people in 5000 years.
ReplyThat commercial sounds remarkably like Joe Rogan wrote it
ReplyNow that shit was funny
ReplyI had shrooms once years ago. It was ok, not great. Then I had to throw up for awhile… but I had fun running around the apartment naked
ReplyWhat is it with staring at your hands?? They become so freakin’ fascinating!! Don’t get me started on tree bark!!
Replylmaooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Reply#Shrooms!
EXACTLY
ReplyThere is nothing better than camping and eating shrooms with your friends.
ReplyTolerance for jam bands is perhaps the best side effect….lol
Reply“Do not take mushrooms if you were a member of the Doors…”
ReplyThat’s rich.
Well, I’m sold. I have a lot to say to that coyote, I don’t care.
ReplyWas there a coyote in this?
ReplyHey, Bill? What you call “that antidepressant bullshit” has helped millions of people. What you know about medial science wouldn’t fill a Post-It Note.
ReplyBad news for you Bill, even caffeine beats prescription anti-depressants in the short term. So the question you should be asking is how long does the effect last?
ReplyI think some people who need help getting into their right brain and spiritual side.
ReplyThe neurochemistry of religion is related to psilocybin…
ReplyNew study? This has been studied and proven years ago already.
ReplyI want to ride the snake that’s 7 miles long.
ReplyWhat did Bill get up to with that coyote?
ReplyIs that Howard Stern
Reply“Try it once and never stop talking about it.”
Reply*nnnnnnnhuehheuhheuh*
I adore mushrooms.
ReplyYou know, they are EASY to grow?
Probably why I smile a lot.
I tripped 3 weeks ago and it was great
ReplySTOP CALLING OUT MY PANTS.
I bought them first. :/
ReplyBill Maher trying to appeal to the drug addiction crowd, just like TYT and Ron Paul. Yep Doctors are in on the racist drug war because they don’t want people to have fun – this is what wacky drug legalization advocates believe.
ReplyIve tasted green before
ReplyAllowing medics to prescribe psilocybin is a must.
ReplySo… The “coyote” warning in the ad came from someone’s personal experiences, right?
ReplyI and many others have known this.
ReplyI paused the video in order to read the fine print…..I’m thorough you see!
ReplyCan I listen the cayote?
ReplyMushrooms aren’t legal in Oregon. They are decriminalized in small amounts. Big difference
ReplyThis may be a satire on drug commercials, but the subject of depression is very real. Depression curtails your ability to grow new neurons in the hippocampus, the science of neurogenesis. Yes, certain activities can grow new neurons even in older people. Such as laughter, sex, exercise, study, but depression or sadness stops it. So these mushrooms may be a life saver!
ReplyI’ll take those shrooms.
ReplyBill Hicks approves this message.
ReplyFunny as hell!
ReplyDon’t taunt Happy Ball
ReplyTired old skits like this keep the stigma alive.
ReplyThose Mario power ups are wonderful.
ReplyThese experiments showing how mushrooms (or also LSD) helped depression, et al, are NOT new. There were several such back in the 60s, and every year or 2, i read about yet another study, with the same positive results. But I guess after all the weed legalization, it’s getting more public awareness now.
ReplyThe best thing I have ever ingested , into my mind !
ReplyMushrooms cured my depression. They’re wonderful
ReplyMushrooms are a really Fun-Gi
ReplyMushrooms work better than the “pharmasutical” stuff for “dipression”.
ReplyYou hit the nail right on the head.
#endtheshrinksandtheircolleguesprofession
Love the small legal print at the end!
ReplyLove this comment section! A+
ReplyDo not take mushrooms, if you’re going to Easter dinner at your parent’s house and there will be kids and decorations.
ReplyNature provides.
ReplyYou forgot to add Psilocin.
ReplyThis was not funny. This is a movement which can literally save the world. This just paints it in a bad light and attempts to minimize the credibility of the movement and make it look like a joke. You missed the mark here, Bill.
Replyand at the end of the trip you get horrible hidden conscious flashbacks
ReplyJust listen to the coyote.
ReplyWell, not exactly. Psilocybin interrupts the negative feedback pathways in your mind, much like an electric shock does but gentler. With the right setting and trained assistants it can be helpful to establish and reinforce better pathways in the brain . You can see that this might be misused or done incorrectly and cause a lot of harm: it is no recreational drug, but given the choice I would do psilocybin over electro-convulsive therapy any day.
ReplyBill at his best.
ReplyAwesome!!!
Replyvery funny !
Replyi want to say i have a sense of humor about these kinds of things, but this just wasn’t funny and probably does a disservice to people who actually benefit from this medicine.
ReplyYou are funny but i missed the point this tim!!!!
ReplyLegal eyes schroons
ReplyI never did like fungus but it’s starting to grow on me
ReplyBrilliant.
ReplyI want a peyote riff.
ReplyThat laugh is annoying and can go away. Thanks
ReplyUnless you have a bad trip
ReplyWell, I have to admit that on the occasions I indulged in shrooms, my depression always took a huge time-out – but boy, were the side effects a force to be reckoned with before I discovered the concept of microdosing (not all of them were negative, though, but the huge majority of them were of the “Whoa – I _really_ didn’t sign up for that, but as long as this doesn’t go any further, I’m okay with it” quality).
And about “Peyote Coyote”:
I first met the lad when I was a teenager and had popped some shrooms for the second time, and back then he was a brash and obnoxious loudmouth who actually scared me.
The second time we met was when I was in my mid-twenties, and he was still as brash and obnoxious, but somehow he wasn’t able to scare me anymore.
And the third time we met was about three years ago and that was when things really changed: he first tried to be an obnoxious asshat as he was before, but then I sat him down for a serious conversation in which I also explained to him in detail that one of the hobbies of my two very resolute large toms I’m living with is chasing dogs if they don’t observe common rules of courtesy (e.g. “never chase cats but do approach them very slowly, carefully and in a polite manner” as well as “sniffing a cat’s rear end is a very intimate thing to do, so don’t rush it but take your time”), and that seems to have done the trick.
Because since then he’s a very good boy who still retains a very healthy, entertaining and funny amount of sass, but he also does know now how far he may go – and since then we actually mutually enjoy our company when I get my hands on a good batch of shrooms, and every time we meet, we have fun, enjoy ourselves and frolic the fuck out in a civilised manner.
So: _never_ be afraid of Coyote, but confront him head-on and set things straight.
ReplyBecause yes, Coyote _is_ a trickster, a scoundrel and a fucking brat at times who really likes to test his boundaries. But from my personal experience, if you give him a _really_ serious talking-to just once, he actually can become a quite well-behaved and enjoyable companion. In fact, we’ve met a few times since that third encounter and since then, the rascal actually starts to grow on me (and while I do like dogs as well, I’m actually a onepercenter cat person for decades, so I’d say that must mean something).
