Ibogaine is regularly categorized as a psychedelic β but that label may be misleading in ways that matter. In this micro, James offers a crash course in what ibogaine actually is: where it comes from, how its unusual pharmacology works, what it does to the mind, and why it holds a position in addiction medicine that no other drug on earth can claim. The risk profile is part of the picture too.

You can buy Lanmaoa asiatica at a food market in Yunnan. Cook it thoroughly and it's just a bolete. Undercook it, and roughly 12 to 24 hours later you may spend the next three to seven days seeing hyper-realistic miniature people moving through your environment β documented across three independent cultures, mechanism completely unknown. Ethnobotanist Colin Domnauer (Dentinger Lab, Natural History Museum of Utah) is one of the few people actively trying to understand why.
Colin and I get into what's actually documented about Lanmaoa asiatica β the three independent cultural accounts, the unusual onset and duration, and what the phenomenology of the hallucinations themselves suggests about mechanism. We talk about why this mushroom has received almost no formal scientific attention, what studying it would even look like, and what it might reveal about how psychedelic effects are produced in fungi more broadly. There's also a lot we just don't know β and we sit in that honestly.

Research Psychologist Jessica Corneille discusses the complex integration process that follows spontaneous spiritual experiencesβparticularly the disorientation, vocational tension, and identity shifts that can arise when a transformed worldview no longer aligns with one's work or social context.
The conversation explores the emergence of spiritual crisis during integration, the importance of non-hierarchical support spaces, and how connection, community, and spiritual literature (including reflections on Alan Watts) can help individuals rebuild a coherent sense of self and purpose after awakening.

Thomas Hatsis joins us for episode 205 to discuss his new book Psychedelic Injustice: How Identity Politics Poisons the Psychedelic Renaissance.
Together we discuss some pretty divisive topics: the distinction between social justice and critical social justice, how certain narratives are being imposed on the psychedelic movement, implicit bias research, decolonization rhetoric, the drug war's actual causes, and contested claims about psychedelic history.
This one might get spicy for you.

Dr. Mikael Palner discusses how psilocybin microdosing alters synaptic plasticity in rats and how these brain changes align with shifts in stress resiliancy and compulsive behaviors. He then discusses how these data line up with emerging reports on low-dose psilocybin as helpful in cases of OCD, and hypothesizes a plausible biological basis.
