Season 4, Episode 11: Harvard Psilocybin Experiments
Alright gang, this week we’re finally getting round to tackling Timothy Leary.
A Psychologist. An advocate for Psychedelics and free thinking. A provocateur and a counterculture icon.
Cited as both “the most dangerous man in America” and a “hero of American consciousness” Leary has been, for decades, an interesting figure to say the least.
But rather than dive into a biographical exploration of Leary, in this episode we’re going to be looking at two of the most infamous experiments attached to his name. The Concord Prison Experiment and The Good Friday Experiment.
Two pivotal moments in psychedelic research that ask two distinct questions.
Can drugs actually help with criminal rehabilitation and can they bring you closer to god?
