However, I have concerns about scaling these treatments from small-scale research to mass-market mental health solutions. That's what this show is all about – exploring the potential and complexities of psychedelics -- with your host, Dr. Anne Metz.

Join us as we explore the controversial world of psychedelic churches and the legal battles they face, focusing on the Church of Ambrosia and its founder, Dave Hodges. We'll discuss the church's use of psilocybin mushrooms as a sacrament, the ongoing fight for legalization, and the complex issues surrounding religious freedom and drug policy. Stay tuned for an exclusive upcoming interview with Sean McAllister, lead counsel for the Church of the Eagle and Condor, who recently won the right to import ayahuasca for religious purposes.
