ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
The science on psychedelic therapy is accelerating, and the policy is trying to catch up. The people caught in between are the ones who need affordable, accessible care and can't get it yet. Ground Game, from the Center for Psychedelic Policy, talks to the researchers, clinicians, and advocates working at that intersection, translating the momentum into something legislators, funders, and advocates can act on. The podcast is hosted by Sam Chapman, who led the campaign that created the first regulated psilocybin program in the nation.
