0:00Hello boys and girls, ladies and germs.

0:01This is Tim Verris.

0:02Welcome to another episode of the Tim Verris Show.

0:05This is a three-way.

0:07This is a podcast featuring two Bucking Broncos and intellectual greats.

0:12I am excited to introduce you to both Wade Davis and Dr.

0:16Andrew Weil.

0:17They've both been on separately before, but in this particular instance, they are united in their deep interest and long-term use of the Divine Leaf, aka Coca Leaf, which has 8,000 plus years of human use documented.

0:32We'll get into lots of details on that and why on earth I might feature this on this podcast, but let's get to some bios for those who don't know these fellas.

0:40Wade Davis is an ethnographer, writer, photographer, and filmmaker.

0:44From 2014 to 2024, he served as professor of anthropology and BC Leadership Chair in Cultures and Ecosystems at Risk at the University of British Columbia.

0:53And from 2000 to 2013, as explorer in residence at the National Geographic Society.

0:59With a PhD from Harvard in ethnobotany, he spent three years among 15 indigenous groups in the Amazon and the Andes.
