Viceland kentucky ayahuasca

Curious on everyone's thoughts if you have seen this recent episode. Part of me found it slightly off putting with very loose use of the word shaman from this ex bank robbers story. yet i just have my own personal stereotypes on what a "shaman" is just because of the way the idea of shamanism is so glorified and put on a pedestal. also he said the Native American Church ordained him as an ayahuasca shaman, does this happen normally? didnt know they actively worked with and produce ayahuasca shamans in the states.

However also it seemed in their own context that these folks are genuinely attempting to do real healing work for people that dont have access or knowledge of the ayahuasca. Its certainly much more cut and dry than the theatrical shamanic practices of today. I like how it seemed to be perfect for the people living in such a culturally deprived location such as the bible belt of Kentucky. What do you guys think? I say good on them
 
I live very close to these people, heard about it a couple years ago when they showed it on the local news, and luckily they haven't made a big deal out of it, which is what they normally do and hopefully they've forgotten about it.

Granted I don't need to visit this place because I'd rather do it in the comfort of my own home, but I'm glad there is a place like this nearby. As one of the people in the comment section stated, I don't have the money to travel to Peru for healing, which not everybody does, but could still benefit from the experience and should not be denied due to logistics. This gives those of us that can't afford trips like that the opportunity, so good for them and hopefully they can continue doing it, intelligently and safely.
