Welcome to a different episode of The Tim Ferriss Present. For this episode, I’m doing one thing completely different. I’m that includes a really particular episode from a brand-new podcast referred to as Altered States.
Right here’s the teaser for the episode you’re about to listen to: “For the final couple of years, producer Shaina Shealy has been following Israeli and Palestinian peace activists who’ve been coming collectively to drink the psychedelic brew ayahuasca in an effort to heal their collective intergenerational trauma. It appeared to be serving to them when all of a sudden the area erupts into chaos and violence.”
Shaina Shealy was a fellow from the Ferriss-UC Berkeley Psychedelic Journalism Fellowship, which provides ten $10,000 reporting grants per yr to journalists reporting in-depth print and audio tales on the science, coverage, enterprise and tradition of this new period of psychedelics. The fellowship is supported by my basis, the Saisei Basis, and made doable in collaboration with Michael Pollan, Malia Wollan, and others at UC Berkeley.
Altered States appears to be like at how persons are taking psychedelics, who has entry to them, how they’re regulated, who stands to revenue, and what these substances would possibly supply us as people and as a society.
