Welcome to Macroaggression.com. I'm your host, Charlie Robinson. If you're watching us on Rockfin or Rumble, or you're listening wherever podcasts are served, thanks a million. We appreciate the support. If you like the show, you can subscribe to it, and you can rate the show. If you think we've done a good job, we would appreciate five-star review. Do that for all the podcasts that you like. We have to play this algorithm game, so we're gonna play it to win. So thank you in advance. If you wanna connect with me, the website macroaggressions.io is the best place to do that, where you can find information about the podcast, the books and all of our sponsors too. If you find a sponsor that you hear us talking about and you wanna connect with them, the website is a good place to do it. Also in the show notes as well, you can find information about Brain Supreme. brainsupreme.co is the place to go to find, well, they're making mushroom nootropics. They sent me a couple packets. I've gone through all of them. I reordered more. They're fantastic. They actually work. There's four different formulas. One's an energy, one's genius, one's called feel good. And the fourth one is the black stack. You can take a look, go to brainsupreme.co and read up about it. It's organic and biodynamic functional mushrooms.
They support brain function, enhance focus and creativity. And I will tell you that with the energy ones, you take those about 20 minutes before you go into the gym and you will get yourself into this really good flow state. That's what they're going for. And you can definitely feel it.
So I suggest take a look, go to brainsupreme.co. You could do this. You can sign up for the microdosing course. It's free. You just have to sign up for it and watch it and take a look. And after that, see what you think. If you find something you like, the promo code on your way out the door is MACRO. That'll save you some money. And also, since we're talking about enhancing our health, Chemical Free Body has been with us since the very beginning. I take Green 85 every single morning and I have for over four years. I've done the detox bundle, the 90-day detox bundle, twice. It will lean you out. It's Green 85 in the morning and a handful of capsules. So if you're looking for something, if you've tried some supplements and maybe they didn't really work or you are thinking about something for the new year, chemicalfreebody.com is a good place to go and just take a look and see what you think. Their supplements work, okay? I just like, you'd think that would be a given, but we're in the supplement business and it's really not the case. So when you find somebody like Tim James over at chemicalfreebody.com, I latched on to him. He's such a fantastic guy and he always has amazing tips. So if you're interested, you can check out his podcast as well, Tim James Unleashed over there at chemicalfreebody.com, but if you find something you like, the discount code on your way out the door is also MACRO on that one. So now that we've got the business out of the way, oh baby, I'm excited for this one. It's my great pleasure to welcome back to the show, John Potash, the director, talking about his new movie, CIA Drugs R Us. Good to see you, John. How are you?
