Dolphins, drugs, new age music. Isolation tanks as a portal into other dimensions. True love and fake aliens.

Yet: Gaia is currently embroiled in a legal battle with a former host who claims that his stories about secret space programs and eight-foot tall “blue avian” aliens are actually part of his trademarked creative IP.
