AD Break 1

AD Break 2

Really, no Really’s most controversial episode yet!

Microdosing! Millions of people, including your mee-maw and pee-paw, your 2nd cousin Leonard and your best friend’s dry cleaner are all ingesting small amounts of psychedelic mushrooms, LSD, and other hallucinogenic substances without any involvement by a physician.

Proponents claim it reduces anxiety and depression, enhances mood and boosts creativity and productivity. Really, no really?

Jason and Peter were determined to find out if these anecdotal claims were supported by any actual, scientific evidence. They contacted Professor Frederick Barrett, Ph.D. a cognitive neuroscientist based in the Department of Psychological & Brain Sciences at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and Associate Director at the Center for Psychedelic and Consciousness Research figuring that if anyone knows the hard science behind microdosing, it should be him.

Jason, Peter and Dr. Barrett discussed:
The safety of street purchased hallucinogenic substances.
Macro-dosing research and its effect on depression, addictive behaviors and other medicinal applications and the possibility it could help after only one treatment.
Jason & Peter’s home brewed placebo.
The secret history of one of the most effective medications in history: Obecalp.
The genesis of the “S” in Johns Hopkins University.
Why psychedelic research in the 1950’s came to a screeching halt.
What exactly is a Ayahuasca retreat and is it safe?
How does a doctor find himself studying substances typically associated with the Grateful Dead and Phish concerts?
Peter’s terrible coping mechanisms when he feels depressed.
