The Dr. Junkie Show

#17: First Trips (Vanessa & Riley Brown)


Listen Later

Who hasn't taken a handful of magic mushrooms and walked seven miles in a psychedelic haze of love while sharing your heart with a friend? If you haven't, life is short. Come to Colorado for a vacation. In May of 2019, psilocybin consumption was decriminalized. 

In this episode I sit down with one of my daughters and her partner to unpack their first trip--a magic mushroom fueled night just 48 hours earlier that is still fresh in their minds. And we model a little bit of responsible drug use. We unpack what they discovered about themselves and each other during their trip, and we (re)discover just how valuable these chemicals are to those of us who find a new way of being when using them. 

We also discuss set and setting, Stoned Apes, stigma and depression, the history of psychedelics, and we introduce our new recurring segment: "Only when you are Tripping."
