His Story:

My name is Ricky Liorti and I’m a 30 year old podcaster and tech entrepreneur from Toronto, ON. I like to play sports, hang out with friends, go to concerts and basically anything that involves being around people. I’ve always considered myself an open minded person and found myself trying new things and always looking to learn more.

 In the last year, during these COVID times, I recently began working in a more creative environment with my podcast and now my new social voting app called Cast and I’ve released that certain days I just don’t have the same juices flowing through. Some days I feel as if I’m on fire and everything I touch turns to gold and other days it feels like I just can't come up with anything… You know those days I’m talking about? The ones where you legit can’t think about a new idea to save your life? Yea those ones. Working so hard on the podcast and the app, I need to be on point - I need to be rocking and rolling day in and day out and that’s why I’ve start microdosing with Schedule 35. To be honest, I didn’t know too much about it originally just like many don’t. Is it legal, is it not? Can I buy it or do I grow my own? Am I going to feel high and be unproductive? Who knew really.

I got fairly lucky that I had a friend who was microdosing and answered some of my questions. He told me that he didn’t feel high, but he just felt “On Point” when it came to his creativity. “On Point” he said… Honestly, I couldn’t really describe it another way. When you are microdosing and working in a creative space such as I am, it helps you bring new ideas, think in a different mindset and really just feel like you're rolling with the punches. For those who haven’t tried it, I suggest giving it a go. You’ll see what I mean when I “On Point”.
