South Africa5 years ago - Superb!
I HIGHLY recommend this podcast, even - perhaps especially - for those not in South Africa. She does a fantastic job sharing scientific information, balanced with real stories of real people whose lives are changed by these medicines, along with Insights on the political legal climate in her country. It's both personal and educational and I look forward to each new episode. more

Leonie Joubert does an excellent job of covering the subject of the use of psychedelics such as psilcyobin aka magic mushrooms and the treatment of depression. Very well researched and presented.
