I have come late to Russell Brand. Undoubtedly controversial, but eye-opening, challenging, gripping, larger-than-life yet, sensitive, compassionate and extremely brave. I have a huge admiration for him.
When in the right frame of mind, I love all his videos. But I particularly enjoyed his series Terence McKenna. By using video clips of interviews with McKenna, he unpicks and gives his interpretation of the progressive ideas of McKenna. I loved being introduced to McKenna, and I loved Brands’ take on him too. With over 1.7k video’s on YouTube I’m excited to unearth more gems from him.
