Sunshine Makers-Netflix

Forums:

Just finished watching Sunshine Makers on Netflix. Story of LSD manufacturers Nick Sand and Tim Scully and LSD culture in general..Figure most here would enjoy it much as I did ..https://youtu.be/hsvElED0-O0

Thanks, Rick!

So much credit is given to Owsley, and rightfully so, but the credit for the most understated, underground acid chemist of all time goes directly to the Sandman. 30 yrs of keeping us electrified, and most of that on the run from the feds. Truly unbelievable how dedicated of a chemist he was. No question he was the true source for most of the Dead's tenure and for all of us who enjoyed his craft through the decades. That's one dude I'd love to meet.

This is a well made documentary. I watched it a couple of nights ago. Footage inside the labs. They really wanted to change the world.

Did you get tingly feeling while watching it???

LOL . They stayed high. Sand licked his finger after touching some hot lab glass wear and ingested two thousand mics.

Orange Sunshine was also recently released.  Not sure if it's on Netflix.

Good watch, interesting and personal portrait of two men on a mission. 

I got a little tingly feeling and a slightly metallic taste in my mouth! 

Viva la Sunshine Makers!

i thought it was decent. definitely cool to see scully and sand in present day. 

they skipped from 1976-1996, when Sand gets busted in Canada w/ "enough L to dose canada twice over"-yet he only got 6 years in a US prison. seems odd to me.  

I enjoyed it.  Thanks for the heads up!

I enjoyed koko the talking monkey more

Billy Hitchcock turned out to be a real piece of work. Not surprised to see he was in the banking and oil business today.

did i read Hunter was dating his sister at one point?

 

 In the words of Sands: "He's a schlub" 

Do you think Nick made electric matzo around this time of year?

Yes and it lasted 8 daysenlightened

I musta had a decimal point in the wrong place man, yea you shoulda only taken 1/10th of that matzo, sorry!
