@timhayward.bsky.social The Trip was fantastic. Thank you to you and the production team. And I've never even smoked a cigarette 😆.

In the first episode, I explain what is specific about psychedelics as treatment in psychiatry. In last episode, dealing about the future of psychedelics, I talk about the possible dissociation between the psychedelic experience and the therapeutic effects: www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Mark Steel on R4Desert Island Discs has just been remarkable. Fantastic story, told in an endearing way. Best though, the reminder of Nina Simone’s solo in Love Me or Leave Me. Still jaw-dropping on about the millionth hearing.

Any hints for Food and drink follows? Any of these ‘starter pack’ things? Still trying to understand all this.
