The Science of Getting High

The Science of Getting High is a unique show by the self-described World's Dumbest Doctor Jonathan Falconer that combines the fun of stand-up comedy with the captivating neuroscience of altered states and illusions that illustrate the difference between our perception of the world and reality.

Since 2013, Jonathan’s been featured on shows all across the U.S., New Zealand, Germany, and Australia, and has recently performed alongside some of New Zealand's biggest comedy icons, including Ben Hurley and Urzila Carlson. He has performed at the Idaho Laugh Fest and the Golden Spike Comedy Festival. He has also been featured on Radio New Zealand and recently won the 2020 Mount Maunganui Comedy Competition and Best Comedian at the Dunedin Comedy Awards in 2020 and 2021. He also hosts a wildly unpopular Youtube show about drugs called The Science of Getting High.
