It was a different world, it was a kinder world and it was a much more innocent world, and all of that would change.
Ever wondered what life was like in the heart of the psychedelic 60s? Carolyn 'Mountain Girl' Garcia, wife of Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead, joins the Dopey podcast for an episode that's as trippy as it is heartfelt. From her early days experimenting with ibogaine in Palo Alto to dropping LSD with Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters, Carolyn's story is a kaleidoscope of experiences.
She takes us on the road with the Grateful Dead, sharing what it was like to start a family amidst the chaos and creativity of the band. But it's not all peace and love; Carolyn opens up about enduring a marriage with a heroin and cocaine addict. Her journey is one of resilience and strength, painting a vivid picture of a world that was kinder and more innocent, yet fraught with its own challenges.
This episode isn't just about drugs and addiction; it's about innovation, creativity, and staying strong in the face of adversity. Tune in for a raw, unfiltered look at a life lived on the edge.
