Provocative and entertaining. Controversial and amusing. Medicinal use of Psychedelics is the number one trending topic today. Coinciding with the recent landmark decision that made Australia the first country in the world to officially recognise psychedelics as medicines, comedian, and pharmaceutical chemistry person, Dr. Jonathan’s show is so on point, it's on fire! So interesting and topical.
The Science of Getting High is for you if you are curious about the health and wellness use of psychedelic substances. If you are looking at ways to get off your dial as a recreational pursuit, this isn’t for you.
The show runs the gauntlet between compelling personal experiences and expert interpretation of current scientific information. Dr. Jonathan finds the balance well and has a comfortable and appealing delivery style.
I found the research and neuroscience of how psychedelics affect the brain fascinating. Dr. Jonathan seamlessly blends a lecture-style presentation with captivating personal anecdotes and cultural and social reflections.
The result is a truly unique and engaging experience that keeps the audience charmed from start to finish. One tip for those attending. Sit back and enjoy the opening conversations, stories, and interactions… trust me, he is going somewhere - you will find out later.
