Episode notes

The war on drugs harms lots of people. Drugs themselves harm some people under some circumstances, and don't under others. And whether or not the drug is criminalized seems to have no relationship to the extent of i harm or not. I want to know if there's any risk associated with long term use of microdosing. Whether the benefits can be, i don't know, this could be a hole. This could be a book about a placebo effect, you know, right? Like all these benefits hat are being reported.

Today's podcast centers around microdosing psychedelics, LSD in particular. Much of today's interest in microdosing psychedelics blossomed after the publication of The Psychedelic Explorer's Guide, which was written by Dr. James Fadiman, who has been featured here in the Salon in the past. And we are fortunate today to listen to a conversation between Jim Fadiman and Ayelet Waldman, author of A Really Good Day: How Microdosing Made a Mega Difference in My Mood, My Marriage, and My Life. Their conversation was moderated by Mike Margolies, who you already know from his work a year or so ago on the Blue Dot Tour, from which we heard many podcasts. This conversation is one of a series of live streamed events presented by Psychedelic Seminars, the San Francisco Psychedelic Society, and Simulation. "I think psychedelics are great for people who don't like meditation, and I think that for people who like meditation they're also very good." -James Fadiman Psychedelic Seminars Hosted by Mike Margolies James Fadiman's Website Ayelet Waldman's Website DanceSafe Psychedelic Seminars Microdosing: The Benefits, Risks, & Unknowns w/ Jim Fadiman & Ayelet Waldman Download MP3 PCs – Right click, select option Macs – Ctrl-Click, select option Download a free copy of Lorenzo's latest book The Chronicles of Lorenzo - Volume 1
