Hallucinogenic is a kind of highbrow way of saying wasted

In this series, my son, Perry, is interviewed by (or holds court with) some of the world’s most interesting — but no longer breathing — individuals: literary icons, film characters, animals, spiritual beings, and even a few particularly chatty palm trees.

How he gets them? That’s still up for debate.

Some say it’s the mushrooms. Others say it’s tequila-fueled sleep. Perry himself admits it’s a combination of both — with occasional divine intervention and late-night snacks.

He once swore off psychedelics after a particularly transformative evening, in which he claims he became a black panther while driving a five-ton truck. When stopped by the police, he allegedly licked his paw and let out a gentle growl. They let him go.

Later that same night, he met a fat woman dating a midget, and apparently, that was all he could handle.

Nowadays, his visions seem to center around a certain mystical Señorita, who may or may not be casting spells on him using peyote and perfume.

Whatever the case, these are the interviews.
They’re bizarre, revealing, ridiculous, and sometimes even beautiful.
Whether it’s Hemingway talking about bikinis, or God giving relocation advice, Perry always finds a way to say something true — even if he doesn’t mean to.

We hope you find them enlightening.
Or at the very least, not actionable in court.

With love (and concern),
Perry’s Mom
