Resumen del Editor
Mescaline, LSD, and psilocybin mushrooms. There’s been a lot of discussion in the medical world lately about the potential benefits of these and other drugs for certain medical conditions, such as anxiety and depression. As we consider the place of psychedelics in the future, we can draw insight and guidance from the history of how psychedelics have been described, sought after, applied, and prohibited over the centuries.
Erika Dyck, professor of history at the University of Saskatchewan, introduces you to the world of hallucinogens, from the sacred rituals of Indigenous cultures to their role in the social upheavals of the 1960s to the current interest in their potential therapeutic applications. Over six mind-expanding lessons, she’ll cover sacred plants, ayahuasca, mescaline, LSD, mushrooms, and others, looking at the origins, uses, potential, and science behind each.
You will see how psychedelics have broadened horizons and inspired new insights, often in the face of deep-seated prejudice and fear.

It’s not just you. Stress levels are at an all-time high—so much so that a recently convened panel of medical experts in the US has recommended that all adults under the age of 65 be screened for anxiety. In How to Release Anxiety, Gabby Bernstein offers simple, actionable steps for feeling better, living with more ease, and showing up for those around us.

From its inception, hip-hop has challenged ideas about morality, religion, and truth. Genuinely, it’s a philosophical genre. Both philosophers and hip-hop artists think about God, death, and justice, among other things. But rarely do members of these two groups talk to one another about these issues. This is a shame, given that both hip-hop and philosophy have a rich history in deep thinking and have produced exemplary thinkers.

Historia
Professor Thad Polk, of the University of Michigan, invites you to join him for Shocking Psychological Studies and the Lessons They Teach, a six-lecture course exploring a range of shocking psychological experiments from the past that have nonetheless contributed significant insight into the human condition. Dr. Polk elucidates the contemporary ethical principles now in place to protect both subjects and science, but admits that with every new technological and scientific advancement, there also comes a new set of ethical conundrums for researchers to grapple with.

The history of one of my favorite things
A very consise and enlightening history of psychedelics. She put out a lot of new information I did not know. Her naration was a little monotone, but she spoke clearly. She got me fired up to get back on the bus.

Information delivered in an organized format.
This lecture was very interesting in smaller doses. Because it is divided into 6 lectures, the listener can choose to listen for shorter periods, and possibly glean more information.

Boring narrator :(
I liked the story and what they told. There is much more to it but It's an interesting way of introducing someone to this. However, the narrator was incredibly plain. How can someone make such an interesting topic so boring?

Finally, an honest review without the shackles of political bias. #Also lacking big pharmas influence it's refreshing

Well communicated and important talking points
I enjoyed this lecture series - I would have like a more in depth look at the experiences themselves but all and all worth a listen
