While we count down to the end of the year and the end of Season One, we thought it was timely to take stock of the emerging field of psychedelic medicine in New Zealand.
In this episode, Will covers off the country's first psychedelic medicine conference, the momentum that's building in the research community, what's happening with the only psychedelic that's legal here for therapy - ketamine - and what lies ahead.
Be sure to tune in next week as we wrap up the season the way we started it, with a conversation with BJ Millar. And don't forget to subscribe via Apple Podcasts, Spotify or your favourite platform so you don't miss the start of Season Two.
