In this episode of Malfunction Junction, we dive headfirst into one of the most controversial and compelling topics in addiction recovery today: psychedelics. From mushrooms to ayahuasca, psychedelic-assisted therapy is making waves — but where does it fit in the world of recovery?

We explore the science, the stigma, and the stories behind the use of mind-altering substances in healing trauma and addiction. Can psychedelics offer a path to recovery, or are they a slippery slope for those trying to stay clean? Whether you’re curious, skeptical, or somewhere in between, this episode doesn’t shy away from the hard questions.

This week, we're switching things up with a new format—less structure, more honesty, and a little comedy thrown in. We’re talking about what life looked like for us this week in recovery: the wins, the setbacks, the weird moments, and everything in between. Whether you're deep in your own journey or just curious about what sober life really looks like, this episode keeps it real.

Addiction rarely starts with a bang — it creeps in slowly, often disguised as normal behavior or “just a phase.” In this episode, we look back on the early warning signs of addiction in our own lives. From subtle red flags to moments we brushed off at the time, we share how our habits, thinking, and relationships began to shift long before things spiraled out of control. Whether you're questioning your own behavior or worried about someone you love, this conversation is a raw, honest look at the signs we wish we had recognized sooner.
