Comedy and psychedelic history converge in 1964 when Hugh Romney moves to San Francisco to join The Committee Improv Theater in North Beach, where Wavy’s performance meat suit precluded Lady Gaga’s by 45 years. In this episode we unpack Wavy’s best friend and biggest influence, John Brent, a little-known comedy genius who’s feet John Belushi literally kissed and Wavy shares psychedelic stories from the transformative mid 60’s when the SF’s North Beach neighborhood birthed the world-famous counter-culture. Amazing tales about DMT, San Francisco’s most famous brothel, Tibetan magic and a secret society fueled by historic Owlsley LSD.... Episode guests include members of The Committee, Merry Pranksters, Hog Farm and more.
