THAT PODCAST... where Keanu Reeves saves us all using the power of dreams, and we take some LSD in order to confront the unconfrontable things in life – PART TWO

Following our deep dive into pandemic-influenced dreams in Part 1, host Sophie Duker looks into how hallucinogenic-influenced altered states might help to cure PTSD, and confronts the trauma of the past year

Part 2 of the episode features an audio drama from writer Eno Mfon, as well as a conversation with Mariel Richards, CEO of gal-dem - a media publication for people of colour from marginalised genders, and an account from a patient of MAPS (the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies).
