Dive into The Giant Pod with Andy Wrintmore.

Joining Andy on this episode is psychologist, epidemiologist, lecturer, podcaster & author Dr Suzi Gage. Suzi discusses her podcast and accompanying book 'Say Why To Drugs: Everything You Need to Know About the Drugs We Take and Why We Get High' and her research into the links between mental health and lifestyle choices.

Andy & Suzi also discuss Bristol's music venues, difficult 70s keyboard parts, how lockdown has affected drug use. This conversation also features a great discussion around the relationship between various drugs and creativity, and how being John Lennon might be a more important component in coming up with trippy tunes than anything a psychedelic might provide.
