NY Jets QB Aaron Rodgers to speak at psychedelics conference

It’s not a darkness retreat, but New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers is still mystifying the public with his alternative interests.

This time, Rodgers will speak at a Colorado psychedelics conference to extol the virtues of ayahuasca. He is known to use the psychedelic and promote its benefits.

According to the Alcohol and Drug Foundation, “Ayahuasca (pronounced ‘eye-ah-WAH-ska’) is a plant-based psychedelic. Psychedelics affect all the senses, altering a person’s thinking, sense of time, and emotions. They can cause a person to hallucinate—seeing or hearing things that do not exist or are distorted.
