President Trump, already at odds with many MAGA leaders over Iran, is getting pressured hard by MAGA activists not to endorse Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) for reelection. Why it matters: This is the most unified, intense, in-his-face MAGA campaign yet to push Trump into picking sides in a pivotal fight — the GOP establishment or his base. Trump was leaning toward backing Cornyn before MAGA went ballistic, officials tell Axios.Republican leaders see Cornyn as way more electable than scandal-stained GOP challenger, state Attorney General Ken Paxton. A loss in November could jeopardize Republicans' Senate majority.Zoom in: Cornyn and Paxton finished [...]
Democrats must commit to tailored, economically focused messaging to win back Latino voters in the 2026 midterms, Univision executive Ignacio Meyer said Saturday at Axios House at SXSW.Why it matters: Latinos — the up-for-grabs voting force that could decide 2026's razor-thin congressional battles — propelled President Trump's 2024 victory with record GOP support, about 48% nationally."Hispanic voters are largely sophisticated or largely independent, and they want to be swayed by issues," Meyer said."They do not want to be spoken to about partisan politics."State of play: Meyer called it a "big disconnect" that politicians ignore Latinos' cultural clout in news, sports and [...]
President Trump claimed on Saturday the U.S. and several other countries will send war ships to the Gulf to reopen commercial shipping in the strait of Hormuz. Why it matters: The attacks in the strait of Hormuz brought commercial shipping to and from the Gulf to an almost complete halt, dramatically disrupted oil exports from the region and destabilized global energy markets. U.S., Israeli and Western officials say the situation at the strait has been the key concern for the Trump administration in recent days. What he is saying: "Many Countries, especially those who are affected by Iran's attempted closure [...]
Black and Hispanic audiences are among the fastest-growing groups in podcasting, pushing the medium past talk radio in share of spoken-word listening.Why it matters: As podcasting becomes mainstream, many creators — especially those who are Black or brown — are building audiences on platforms they don't control.Juleyka Lantigua, an exception as a Latina owner, launched the podcast production company LWC Studios in 2017. She said when creators from fast-growing audiences don't own their work, they risk generating cultural value while capturing only a fraction of the revenue."Ownership is destiny," she said. "The only way to secure a long-term future for [...]
The French government has drafted a proposal to end the war in Lebanon that would require the Lebanese government to take the unprecedented step of recognizing Israel, three sources familiar with the details told Axios. Israel and the U.S. are reviewing the proposal.Why it matters: The French framework could help de-escalate the war, prevent a prolonged Israeli occupation of southern Lebanon, increase international pressure to disarm Hezbollah and open the door to a historic peace deal.The Lebanese government has accepted the plan as a basis for peace talks, deeply alarmed that the renewed war — triggered by Hezbollah's rocket attacks [...]
The U.S. government is treating strikes on Iran like a video game, inviting the country to watch as memes and montages subsume the human cost of war.Why it matters: The Trump administration didn't invent the gamification of war, nor did it invent wartime propaganda — a tool of statecraft as old as armed conflict itself.But packaging live combat as social media content — scoring real kills in real time, and broadcasting it to an audience of millions — is a first in the history of American warfare.Zoom in: Two weeks into Operation Epic Fury, much of the White House's online messaging [...]
The U.S. lacks the "political will" and popular consensus to put boots on the ground in Iran after decades of "adventures" in the Middle East, Anduril Industries founder Palmer Luckey said on "The Axios Show."Why it matters: Three weeks into the Iran war, the U.S. is sending thousands of Marines to the region, with growing uncertainty about what actually comes next. Driving the news: "Our adventures in the Middle East of the last couple decades have robbed America of its ability to sustain a boots-on-the-ground campaign," said Luckey, whose $60 billion company builds everything from drones to missiles to electronic [...]
Colleges besieged by AI-generated writing brought back blue book exams to deter cheating, but some educators say hand-written tests don't showcase students' best work and disadvantage swaths of learners.Why it matters: Educators say AI cheating is real — if sometimes overstated — but reverting to pen-and-paper tests sidesteps the reality that many employers want graduates who are comfortable using AI tools.State of play: Education has fundamentally changed since OpenAI dropped ChatGPT in 2022.Blue books can help prevent copy-and-paste cheating. But Professor Dan Melzer, at University of California, Davis, says educators won't be able to completely "outsmart ChatGPT" use because students [...]
Israel is planning to significantly expand its ground operation in Lebanon, aiming to seize the entire area south of the Litani River and dismantle Hezbollah's military infrastructure, Israeli and U.S. officials say.Why it matters: This could be the largest Israeli ground invasion of its northern neighbor since 2006, dragging Lebanon to the epicenter of the escalating war with Iran."We are going to do what we did in Gaza," a senior Israeli official said, referring to the flattening of buildings Israel says Hezbollah uses to store weapons and launch attacks.The big picture: An operation of this size and scale could lead [...]
President Trump said the U.S. military conducted a massive strike on Kharg Island in Iran - the center of the country's oil exports. Why it matters: The strategic Island hosts Iran key oil export facilities. 80-90 percent of Iranian oil is exported from the Island. The White House has been considering a ground operation to take over the island as one of many options presented by the Pentagon ahead of the war with Iran.The strike was a "shot across the bow" by Trump to signal to the Iranians they should stop closing the Strait of Hormuz which has dramatically disrupted [...]
President Trump on Friday invoked a Cold War-era law in a bid to boost oil production off Southern California's coast and meet demand in the wake of the Iran war.Why it matters: The president's signing of an executive order allowing use of the Defense Production Act shows he's trying to employ a variety of tools to try to tamp down the oil price shocks set off by the war.It also sets up another confrontation with California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D), a potential 2028 presidential candidate and one of Trump's most persistent critics.Driving the news: The use of the Defense Production [...]
In a phone call with President Trump this week, Russian President Vladimir Putin proposed moving Iran's enriched uranium to Russia as part of a deal to end the war.Trump turned him down, sources tell Axios.Why it matters: Securing Iran's 450 kilograms of 60%-enriched uranium — convertible to weapons grade within weeks, and enough for more than 10 nuclear bombs — is one of the U.S. and Israel's key war objectives.In theory, Putin's offer could help facilitate the removal of Iran's nuclear stockpile without U.S. or Israeli boots on the ground.Russia is already a nuclear power and previously stored Iran's low-enriched [...]
A federal judge tossed out Department of Justice subpoenas sent to Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell earlier this year, according to a filing unsealed on Friday.Why it matters: The judge accused the Trump administration of using the criminal investigation to pressure the head of the world's most important central bank to lower interest rates.The judge, James Boasberg, the chief judge for the U.S. District Court for Washington, D.C., also scolded the administration for providing "no evidence whatsoever" that the Fed chief had committed a crime.What they're saying: "There is abundant evidence that the subpoenas' dominant (if not sole) purpose is [...]
Reckitt Catalyst entrepreneur-in-residence Serena Williams told founders at Axios House during SXSW on Friday that one of the toughest hurdles for early-stage entrepreneurs is learning how to sell themselves. Why it matters: The former tennis star says underinvested entrepreneurs — who are frequently people of color and women — are passionate, problem-solvers but they need mentors to help them with storytelling.What they're saying: "My mentor actually told me I needed to be a better storyteller," Williams told Axios' Sara Fischer, noting that advice changed her trajectory in business. She said she's believed and invested in founders who ultimately couldn't raise [...]
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said Friday that Iran's new supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, is "wounded and likely disfigured."Why it matters: Hegseth's claim was the first official statement by the Trump administration about Khamenei's health since he was named the country's leader."Iran's leadership is in no better shape. Desperate and hiding they have gone underground, cowering. That's what rats do. We know the new so-called not-so-supreme leader is wounded and likely disfigured," Hegseth told reporters at a briefing.Behind the scenes: President Trump told G7 leaders in a virtual meeting on Wednesday that Khamenei "is not in good shape," according to [...]
The Treasury Department made it easier Friday for U.S. businesses and farmers to buy Venezuelan fertilizer and oil as their prices rise because of the Iran war, Axios has learned.Why it matters: The bottleneck of tankers in the Persian Gulf because of Iranian attacks has caused the costs of oil and fertilizer, a petrochemical product, to jump. It threatens to spike inflation and raise the cost of food in the U.S.By reducing sanctions on oil-rich Venezuela, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent hopes to increase supplies in the U.S. and lower prices.Zoom in: The Office of Foreign Assets Control, which manages sanctions, [...]
Ric Grenell plans to transition out of his role as president of the 54-year-old Kennedy Center on Monday, as the nation's premier performing arts venue finalizes plans for a two-year shutdown for renovations, Axios has learned.Grenell will be succeeded by Matt Floca, the vice president of facilities operations at the national cultural center, which was renamed the Trump Kennedy Center after a December vote of its board of trustees. Driving the news: Grenell, who also serves as Trump's envoy for special missions, will still be active in the organization as an unpaid consultant.The change is set to be announced at [...]
Data: AdImpact; Chart: Axios VisualsDemocrats will learn whether money talks in 2026 in the Illinois Senate primary Tuesday in a race that will almost certainly determine who replaces Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.).Why it matters: Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi is hoping the better-funded candidate emerges victorious in Illinois, just like in Texas this month, when state Rep. James Talarico beat Rep. Jasmine Crockett, 52%–46%.Krishnamoorthi has vastly outraised — and outspent — his two primary opponents: Lt. Gov. Juliana Stratton and Rep. Robin Kelly.The intrigue: Two outsized presences have added a layer of intrigue to the race. Fairshake, a crypto PAC, has spent [...]
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is sending an amphibious assault ship, the USS Tripoli, and its Marine expeditionary unit to the Middle East, a senior U.S. official confirmed to Axios on Friday.Why it matters: The deployment will add thousands of Marines, several warships, and F-35 fighter jets to support those already in the region, the U.S. official said.The U.S. official said U.S. Central Command asked for the new force in order to have more options for military operations against Iran. The Marine expeditionary unit will be able to conduct ground operations if ordered. The U.S. official declined to comment on that [...]
The economy was flashing stagflation signals — tepid growth and high inflation — even before the Iran conflict added an oil shock to the mix.Why it matters: What happens when geopolitical turmoil clogs up the world's oil supply chain, against a backdrop of a U.S. economy losing momentum amid sticky inflation?We're about to find out.Driving the news: A revision to fourth-quarter GDP shows the economy grew at only a 0.7% annualized rate in the final months of 2025, half as much as the 1.4% growth rate originally estimated.Real final sales to private domestic purchasers, an underlying measure of growth that [...]
Democrats are moving to censure Reps. Randy Fine (R-Fla.) and Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.) for a series of anti-Muslim posts the two congressmen have made over the last several weeks.Why it matters: Partisan tensions are surging in Congress over violent attacks in Michigan and Virginia on Thursday, with anti-Muslim sentiment reaching a fever pitch in the congressional GOP.The Fine resolution is more top-of-mind for many lawmakers, sources tell Axios, with Rep. Yassamin Ansari (D-Ariz.) openly stating Thursday night that his comments "should have already resulted in censure."Democratic leadership is coordinating with rank-and-file members on that effort, a senior House Democrat told [...]
It's not just oil: The Iran war is threatening to reignite food inflation — the price shock voters feel most directly — at the worst possible time for President Trump and Republicans.Why it matters: The Strait of Hormuz — paralyzed by Iranian threats and potentially mines — carries a third of the world's fertilizer. For many American farmers, the spring planting season is just weeks away.Threat level: The American Farm Bureau Federation warned in a letter to Trump this week that "supply chain shocks are expected to drive already record-high input prices even higher."Gulf states now menaced by war produce [...]
President Trump told G7 leaders in a virtual meeting Wednesday that Iran is "about to surrender," according to three officials from G7 countries briefed on the contents of the call.24 hours later, Iran's new supreme leader issued his first public statement vowing to keep fighting.Why it matters: Trump is as confident about the war's outcome in private as he is in public. But his assessment is colliding with a more complex reality on the ground.The Iranian regime has shown no signs of imminent surrender or collapse — and on Day 14 of the war, is moving to gain more leverage by [...]
The Pentagon is turning procurement into policy, staking its claim as Washington's most powerful AI player with its decision to ditch Anthropic.Why it matters: As lawmakers debate guardrails, the Pentagon showed how it can reshape the AI industry with a single contract decision.The Defense Department is the federal government's biggest tech buyer, and its requirements for companies to win contracts can become de facto rules and spread beyond military systems.In a regulatory vacuum, defense contracts speak the loudest.What they're saying: "The biggest question is: What kind of business partner does the government want to be?" Jessica Tillipman, associate dean for [...]
The U.S. Navy will escort ships through the Strait of Hormuz, "perhaps with an international coalition," as "soon as it is militarily possible," Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said in a Sky News interview broadcast Thursday.Why it matters: The International Energy Agency said Thursday the global oil market is facing "the largest supply disruption" in history due to the Iran war, which Bessent told Sky News has cost the U.S. $11 billion thus far.Calls have been growing for a naval protection system in the strait amid concerns that Iran is laying mines in the narrow, strategically important waterway that typically handles [...]
Congressional Democrats and Republicans clashed furiously on social media Thursday night over blatantly anti-Muslim posts by right-wing House members and senators.Why it matters: Republicans are growing more emboldened than ever in their expressions of unapologetic Islamophobia in recent weeks in response to a series of violent attacks on U.S. soil amid the Iran war."We need more Islamophobia, not less. Fear of Islam is rational," Rep. Randy Fine (R-Fla.) posted to X Thursday.Said Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.), responding to a post with side-by-side photos of the September 11th attacks and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, wrote: "The enemy is inside [...]
An armed suspect is dead after ramming a vehicle on Thursday into Temple Israel Synagogue in Detroit's suburbs, according to law enforcement officials. The latest: The suspect in the West Bloomfield attack was identified as a 41-year-old naturalized U.S. citizen, who was born in Lebanon, per a Department of Homeland Security statement emailed to outlets including Axios Thursday evening.The big picture: Jennifer Runyan, special agent in charge of the FBI's Detroit field office, said during a Thursday briefing that the bureau is "leading the investigation right now as a targeted act of violence against the Jewish community."The attack comes as [...]
House and Senate Democrats are starting to have preliminary discussions to coordinate potential congressional investigations into companies, colleges and law firms in the next Congress, multiple sources told Axios.Why it matters: The early strategizing on how Democrats plan to use the investigative power of committees, including subpoenas, is another indication of the party's growing confidence of victory in November.Sens. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) and Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), all on the Senate Judiciary Committee, have been involved in the planning discussions on the Senate side.Schiff, the lead manager for President Trump's first impeachment, would bring significant experience to any [...]
President Trump's suggestion that Republicans attach the SAVE America Act to the must-pass reauthorization of FISA is already complicating one of Congress' most contentious upcoming fights.Why it matters: Reauthorizing Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act is always messy — and it's shaping up to be a major headache for House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.).The House is expected to move first, with GOP leaders eyeing a vote during the upcoming work period so the Senate has time to move before FISA — which allows warrantless wiretapping of non-U.S. citizens overseas — lapses on April 20.The House has just 12 [...]
The U.S. and Israel could soon find themselves a new enemy in the Iran war — the Houthis.Why it matters: The Houthis involvement in the Iran war could potentially disrupt shipping lanes in a major way and threaten President Trump's military campaign in the Gulf.State of play: Iran's new supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei on Thursday vowed retaliation against Israel and the U.S. for its campaign against Iran, Axios' Barak Ravid reports.He also thanked Hezbollah in Lebanon, the pro-Iranian militias in Iraq and the Houthis in Yemen for their support, suggesting the Houthis could be next to join the war.The Houthis [...]

Melissa Lavasani & Jay Kopelman join our podcast to discuss how psychedelic policy is actually moving in Washington, DC. Lavasani leads Psychedelic Medicine Coalition, a DC-based advocacy organization focused on educating federal officials and advancing legislation around psychedelic medicine. Kopelman is CEO of Mission Within Foundation, which provides scholarships for veterans and first responders seeking psychedelic-assisted therapy retreats, often outside the United States. The conversation centers on veterans, the VA, and why that system may be the first realistic federal pathway for psychedelic care. Early Themes Lavasani describes PMC's work on Capitol Hill, including hosting events that bring lawmakers, staffers, [...]

Fireside Project is a nonprofit that helps reduce the risks of psychedelic experiences through a free support line, coaching, education, and research. In this episode, Joshua White speaks with Psychedelics Today about why real-time support matters, what it takes to run a national hotline, and what Fireside learned after more than 30,000 conversations since launch. White shares how his background as a lawyer and his early hotline volunteering shaped Fireside's model. He also describes how festival harm reduction work, including lessons from Zendo-style support spaces, revealed a major gap: people often need help during an experience and after it ends. [...]
Manvir Singh joins Psychedelics Today to unpack what shamanism means and why the term matters now. Singh is an anthropologist and author of Shamanism: The Timeless Religion. He argues that shamanism is not limited to "remote" societies or the past. Instead, it reliably reappears because it helps humans manage uncertainty, illness, and the unknown. This episode is relevant for the psychedelic community because "shaman" often gets used loosely, or avoided entirely. Singh offers a clear framework for talking about shamanic practice without leaning on romantic myths, drug-centered assumptions, or rigid definitions that do not fit the cross-cultural record. Early Themes [...]
Oli critiques extractive, capital-driven dynamics in the psychedelic ecosystem and suggests fungi offer a different ethic: patience, humility, symbiosis, and realism about parasitism and imbalance. Oli Genn-Bash (Brighton, UK) joins Joe Moore for a grounded conversation on the boom in functional mushrooms and why the category may be moving too quickly. As the founder of The Fungi Consultant, Oli works with consumers and brands to demystify functional mushrooms, with a focus on education, traceability, and realistic expectations. The conversation begins with a critique of wellness hype cycles. Oli explains how consumer desperation for help with anxiety, sleep, stress, and cognition [...]
In this live episode, Tricia Eastman joins to discuss Seeding Consciousness: Plant Medicine, Ancestral Wisdom, Psychedelic Initiation. She explains why many Indigenous initiatory systems begin with consultation and careful assessment of the person, often using divination and lineage-based diagnostic methods before anyone enters ceremony. Eastman contrasts that with modern frameworks that can move fast, rely on short trainings, or treat the medicine as a stand-alone intervention. Early Themes: Ritual, Preparation, and the Loss of Container Eastman describes her background, including ancestral roots in Mexico and her later work at Crossroads Ibogaine in Mexico, where she supported early ibogaine work with [...]
Logan Davidson joins the show to talk about the fast-moving world of Ibogaine in American and why state-based leadership is shaping the future of psychedelic reform.

A clinical psychologist, ordained Zen Buddhist monk, retreat leader, and fellow at the Institute of Noetic Sciences, he blends Buddhist psychology, trauma work, and consciousness studies. The discussion focuses on how people discover and live their truth, and why that truth becomes the core medicine in healing. Early in the Podcast with Michael Sapiro Michael describes how years of clinical work and retreat facilitation shaped his understanding of healing. Real transformation happens when people speak truths [...]
Holotropic Breathwork sits at the center of this wide ranging conversation between Psychedelics Today co-founders Joe Moore and Kyle Buller. Drawing from decades of personal practice and assorted types of breathwork facilitation, they explore how breathwork methods from the Grof lineage including Dreamshadow Breathwork can prepare people for psychedelic work, support difficult journeys, and deepen integration over time. Kyle shares how his near death experience, somatic training, and breathwork facilitation shaped this new course on breathwork foundations, while Joe reflects on how reading Dr Stanislav Grof and years of experience in Holotropic Breathwork changed how he approaches psychedelics. Early Themes: [...]
Alexander Beiner joins Psychedelics Today to explore how psychedelics, culture, and power shape each other. A writer, facilitator, and co founder of the conference Breaking Convention and the media platform KAINOS, he has spent years thinking about how psychedelic experiences ripple into politics, economics, conflict, and community. In this episode, he and Joe trace the path from early internet forums to today's psychedelic renaissance, and ask what it would mean to bring a truly psychedelic perspective into our institutions. Beiner is less interested in psychedelics as a niche medical tool and more interested in how they can help us see [...]
Overview Evelyn Eddy Shoop PMHNP-BC joins Psychedelics Today to share her journey from Division I athlete to psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner and psilocybin research participant. In this conversation, she explains how sports injuries, OCD, and intensive treatment led her into psychiatry and eventually into a psilocybin clinical trial at Yale. Her story weaves together lived experience, clinical training, and a call for more humane systems of care and better qualitative data in psychedelic science. Early Themes: Injury, OCD, and Choosing Psychiatry Early in the episode, Evelyn Eddy Shoop PMHNP-BC describes how multiple season ending injuries in college and serious [...]
Learn more - https://psychedeliconcology.com/ In this episode, Joe Moore sits down with Dr. Jason Konner, a longtime oncologist who recently left his full-time clinical role at Memorial Sloan Kettering to devote himself to the emerging intersection of cancer care and psychedelics. Dr Konner shares how, after more than two decades treating people, he hit a wall. The accumulated grief, constant exposure to death, and intensity of oncology left him deeply burned out, though he didn't have that language for it at the time. A chance moment in a yoga class, overhearing someone say "ayahuasca retreat" just before he was scheduled [...]
Clinical psychologist Dr. Genesee Herzberg joins Kyle to reflect on two decades in trauma work and 15 years inside the psychedelic ecosystem—from early MAPS conferences to running Sage Integrative Health. She traces how personal psychedelic experiences set her on a path of service, research at CIIS on MDMA-assisted therapy, and hands-on roles with MAPS: Zendo Project harm reduction, adherence rating, and ultimately serving as an MDMA therapist in clinical trials. Today she leads Sage, an integrative clinic (psychotherapy, psychiatry, bodywork, acupuncture, and functional nutrition) focused on ketamine-assisted therapy while preparing for MDMA's eventual approval. She also co-founded a sliding-scale KAP [...]
Clinical psychologist Dr. Ros Watts joins Psychedelics Today to share insights from her decade of work with psilocybin therapy and her evolving focus on community-based integration. As the former Clinical Lead for Imperial College London's landmark psilocybin-for-depression trial, Dr. Watts witnessed how psychedelic experiences can foster profound feelings of connection— to self, others, and nature — yet also how that connection can fade without ongoing support. In this conversation, she reflects on what years of research have taught her about connectedness as both a healing mechanism and a human need. She explores how integration work can transform fleeting psychedelic breakthroughs [...]
Artist, builder, and podcast host Jennifer Espenscheid joins Joe Moore for a rich conversation on creativity, process, and the spiritual dimensions of making art. Drawing from her South Dakota roots and large-scale works like Luciferia, Jennifer reflects on the blend of grit, intuition, and trust that guides her artistic life. She discusses how psychedelics have served as a tool for clarity and healing rather than direct creation of art, helping her dissolve patterns and reconnect to innate creativity. They explore how events like Burning Man catalyze inspiration, why intention and integration matter as much as vision, and the discipline of [...]
Brad Adams — LAMPS (Los Angeles Psychedelic Society) joins Kyle to trace his path from PhD researcher to community builder. Brad shares how early work in AIDS, Alzheimer's, gerontology, and cancer research primed him to notice Harbor-UCLA's psilocybin pilot for stage-4 cancer patients with death anxiety—where the strongest mystical experiences correlated with profound death acceptance. Teaming with Dennis McKenna, he ran an ayahuasca pilot in Peru and presented findings at Psychedelic Science 2017. From there, Brad founded LAMPS: first as research meetups at UCLA, then as a thriving hub hosting speakers and, ultimately, an L.A. psychedelic conference. He previews the [...]
In this episode, Kyle and Joe sit down with filmmaker Mustapha Khan and Dreamshadow's Elizabeth & Lenny Gibson to explore Life and Breath—a new documentary immersing viewers in the experience and community of Holotropic Breathwork. We talk about why Mustapha was drawn to Dreamshadow, the film's cinéma vérité approach that places you "in the room," and how years of facilitation informed what became both an archival record and a living portrait of transformation. Elizabeth and Lenny reflect on 35+ years of holding space, the role of curiosity over agenda, and why genuine community—not just catharsis—is central to lasting growth. Kyle [...]
In this episode, Joe Moore talks with Megan Portnoy, a doctoral candidate in clinical psychology at Antioch University New England, about how ontological design can reshape the environments used in psychedelic-assisted therapy. Megan explains how physical space is not just a backdrop but an active participant in the therapeutic process, influencing emotion, cognition, and healing. She recently won an award for her presentation on this topic at PsychedelX. They explore how design principles that foster awe, play, and flexibility can deepen integration and expand what's possible in clinical settings. The conversation also examines how psychedelic communities can balance openness with [...]
Joe and Kyle open with reflections from their first r/psychonaut AMA, then pivot to why they're building Navigators—our off-social community with book/film clubs, early ad-free episodes, mentorship, and an expanding education library. The core discussion explores touch and bodywork in breathwork and psychedelic contexts: why defaulting to "no touch" and moving slowly matters; informed consent; reading nonverbals; and keeping client agency central. They unpack trauma-informed concepts like the window of tolerance, polyvagal‐adjacent ideas (and critiques), and the ethics of avoiding re-traumatization or facilitator-driven interventions ("WAIT: Why am I Talking/Treating/Touching?"). The duo emphasize that bodywork requires specialized training and careful framing—supportive, [...]
Interviewers: Joe Moore & Anne Philippi Guests: TK Wonder & Cipriana Quann (The Quann Sisters) Recorded: June 18 during MAPS PS 2025 Content note: This episode discusses childhood sexual, physical, and emotional abuse, suicidal ideation, disordered eating, and recovery. Identical twins, writers, and culture-shapers TK Wonder and Cipriana Quann join Joe and Anne for a frank, generous conversation about identity, resilience, and the long arc of healing. Cipriana recounts launching Urban Bush Babes in 2011 to center women of color in beauty and fashion—work that led to a Vogue "day-in-the-life" feature and collaborations with couture houses. TK shares the parallel [...]
In this candid, practice-focused conversation, Joe is joined by Norwegian psychologist and researcher Ivar Goksøyr to explore how therapists' own healing journeys can measurably improve client outcomes—and why MDMA-assisted experiences, used thoughtfully, may be a uniquely powerful catalyst for professional development. Ivar shares lessons from Norway's psychedelic research team (PTSD and the world's first MDMA-for-depression trial), his clinic Psykologvirke in Oslo, and his online course, "The Wounded Healer," which uses authentic footage from his FDA-approved MAPS volunteer MDMA sessions to illuminate real clinical processes, countertransference, and the "inner healing intelligence" as a working metaphor rather than dogma. The discussion ranges [...]
Joe and Kyle debrief a hometown Dreamshadow Transpersonal Breathwork weekend in Breckenridge, then sketch the next chapter for Psychedelics Today: a community-centric model (Navigators) that bundles education, live streams, book and film clubs, and small-group access. They kick around the big "creativity + psychedelics" question, contrast subjective "I feel creative" with objective task performance, and highlight new research—from DMT's potential in stroke recovery to breathwork's measurable effects. They wrap with quick hits on MAPS leadership, state policy moves, and what's coming up at PT this fall. Highlights & takeaways Breathwork > substance? A reminder that profound states are accessible without [...]
Episode summary Joe and Mary dive into how platform censorship and shifting algorithms have reshaped psychedelic media, why DoubleBlind moved to a "newsletter-first" model, and what that's revealed about true audience engagement. They reflect on the post-2024 MDMA decision headwinds, state-level policy moves (wins and losses), and how funding, politics, and culture continue to reconfigure the field. They also explore alternatives to alcohol, chronic pain research, reciprocity around iboga/ibogaine, and lessons from PS25 (MAPS' Psychedelic Science 2025). Highlights & themes From platforms to inboxes: Social and search suppression (IG/FB/Google) throttled harm-reduction journalism; DoubleBlind's pivot to email dramatically improved reach and [...]

Joe Moore sits down with Greg Shanken (Colorado Psychedelic Society, Collaborence Psychedelic Business Association; founder, Higher Frequency Network) for a wide-ranging conversation about building community infrastructure, navigating censorship, and creating accessible, ethical pathways into psychedelic healing. Greg shares his personal arc from lifelong depression to ayahuasca, ketamine, and Bufo; why he launched a vetted affiliate/partner network for our space; and how Oregon–Colorado collaboration can widen access while honoring reciprocity and conservation. Key themes Collaborence: a two-day CO/OR event (online + in-person) connecting facilitators, professionals, and the public with pay-what-you-can access options. Access & affordability: how to widen entry points (microdosing, [...]
"Eroticism is the connection to vibrancy, to life—it's how we engage with the world through pleasure." "Feeling is power. A discerning human who can feel is a powerful human." "Psychedelics help us come back into right relationship with our body and with pleasure." "Play gives us the freedom to experiment, to try, to be vulnerable, and to learn without attaching our worth to the outcome." In this episode of Psychedelics Today, Joe Moore sits down with Dr. Cat Meyer, licensed psychotherapist, sex therapist, and host of Sex, Love, Psychedelics. Together, they explore the deep intersections of sexuality, trauma healing, [...]
Joe Moore interviews Dee Dee Goldpaugh, LCSW about their new book Embrace Pleasure: How Psychedelics Can Heal Our Sexuality. The discussion covers the book's reception, critiques of over-medicalization, personal healing experiences, definitions of erotic energy and pleasure, historical repression of substances, and contemporary ethical concerns. Key topics Conversion therapy: historical use of psychedelics in conversion practices, risks today, and need for professional consensus to ban psychedelic-assisted conversion therapy. Motivation: reaction to dominance of the clinical/medical model in psychedelics. Author background: clinical social worker, ketamine-assisted therapy provider, sexual abuse survivor, early psychedelic integration work. Personal healing: ayahuasca and San Pedro (Wachuma) [...]
From the Rave Scene to Psychedelic Therapy In this episode, Kyle Buller speaks with Matt Xavier, DJ, therapist, and author. The conversation took place live at Psychedelic Science. Matt recalls his early years in the rave culture of 1990s New York. He ran record labels, hosted psychedelic trance events, and lived through the intensity of that scene. Why Music Is Medicine Matt believes music should be treated as medicine. He explains how playlists can align with the stages of a psychedelic journey—onset, climb, peak, and descent. He encourages people to listen with intention and to categorize tracks by emotion, energy, [...]
In this episode, Joe Moore sits down with Dr. Case Newsom, an emergency room physician in Denver and Medical Director for both Zendo Project and Stadium Medical. They explore how psychedelic harm reduction is merging with event medicine at concerts, festivals, and large-scale gatherings. Dr. Newsom shares his path from osteopathic medical training to bridging emergency medicine with psychedelic peer support. He explains how the Zendo Project has expanded beyond Burning Man, and why collaboration with medical teams matters. The discussion highlights new triage protocols, cultural shifts in Colorado, and the legal challenges that still stand in the way of [...]

I imagine creating something truly special. Not just another festival, but a gathering people would remember for the rest of their lives. No commercial DJs — just true lovers of the music and the immersive experience. What elements would matter most? Location, sound system, artists, visuals, crowd size, duration, philosophy — anything. For example, • Remote natural location • Proper sound systems (Function-One / Void level) • 3–5 days • Smaller crowd (maybe 1000–3000 people) What else would make something like this work? Curious to hear if something like this is even possible. submitted by /u/G1ft-T0-Ex1st [link] [comments] [...]

Hello all - I really enjoy electronic music and years ago came across this song by Ominus (acid tester) that I always loved. More recently, I revisited this song and checked out more of their songs and it was at that point that I came to understand them to be psychedelic trance. I enjoy how sinister and mean these songs sound - I think they are the sonic equivalent of when I had the flu once and I was physically exhausted but couldn’t sleep a wink because my mind was racing. I mean that in the best possible way. I [...]

Lithium dendrites, i.e. tiny crystalline thorns that grow off of lithium-ion battery anodes during charging, have been a persistent challenge for the world's most widely used form of energy storage. "Dendrites can penetrate the battery's separator, causing catastrophic short circuits and safety hazards," said Qing Ai, a former research scientist at Rice University who is a first author on a new study published in Science that reports for the first time exactly how these tricky structures behave inside batteries. "Despite decades of study, the fundamental nanomechanical properties of lithium dendrites remained a mystery—until now." [...]
In biology and paleontology (the study of extinct organisms) there are a few ways to estimate the age of an animal's skeleton.

Then there are growth marks recorded in the microscopic structure of bone. [...]

A collaborative research team has uncovered a previously unknown mechanism of action of yaku'amide B, a structurally complex peptidic natural product derived from deep-sea sponge found in the waters near Yakushima Island, Japan. Natural products often exhibit multifaceted biological activities due to their structural complexity, interacting transiently with multiple biomolecules. Yaku'amide B was previously shown to inhibit ATP synthase, an essential enzyme for cellular energy production. However, this alone could not fully explain its unique anticancer properties. [...]
Every summer, people living near the Mendenhall River in Juneau, Alaska, keep a close eye on the water level. When the river level begins to rise rapidly, it's a sign that Suicide Basin, a small glacier-dammed lake 5 miles up the mountains, has broken through the glacier again and a glacial lake outburst flood is underway. [...]
The 2025 Eaton fire's smoke did more than darken the sky: It generated a carbon monoxide and particulate matter surge that far exceeded Los Angeles County's average daily human-caused emissions, according to a new study led by researchers at the USC Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences. The findings are published in the journal ACS ES&T Air. [...]
Cerebral blood flow is essential for normal brain function and often perturbed in neurological disease. If one shines a source of coherent light on perfused tissue, the detected speckles, or "grains" of light fluctuate, or "dance," at a rate proportional to blood flow in the volume sampled by the light. In brain tissue, this concept can be harnessed to measure the cerebral blood flow index (CBFi). [...]
An international team of astronomers has employed the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to observe a complex planetary nebula known as NGC 6302. The observations, detailed in a paper published Feb. 25 on the arXiv pre-print server, resulted in the discovery of dry (carbon dioxide) ice in this nebula. This is the first time dry ice has been detected in a planetary nebula. [...]
The Mediterranean Sea is widely perceived as having a low tsunami risk. History and recent modeling technology have demonstrated that destructive waves have already hit the French coast and could do so again. The results of a project carried out in Nice and along the French Riviera show why anticipation and preventive evacuation measures remain the only truly effective means of saving lives. [...]
Photoreceptors are specialized cells in the eye that convert light energy into neural signals. Several diseases that cause irreversible vision loss, including age-related macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa and retinal detachment, are associated with dying photoreceptors. While there are many molecular pathways that result in cell death, there are also many that try to keep the cell alive. [...]
Monoclonal antibodies are widely used to treat diseases ranging from cancer to autoimmune disorders. The safety and efficacy of these biologic drugs depend on maintaining their correct three-dimensional organization, known as their higher-order structure (HOS). [...]
The More You Know: This week, researchers successfully reconstructed videos from the brain activity of mice. According to a new study, female birds are more likely to sing when their extended families help with childcare. And mathematicians have disproven a decades-old classical geometry rule by constructing two compact, self-contained torus objects that have the same metric and mean curvature but are structurally different on a global scale. So that's neat. [...]
A team of US researchers has gained new insights into how large protein molecules consistently fold themselves into useful shapes. Using a new approach to fluorescence microscopy, Hoi Sung Chung and colleagues at the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases have shown that the process likely occurs through the coordinated folding of many different parts of each biomolecule. Their results are published in Physical Review Letters. [...]
Researchers at the University of New Hampshire have documented the farthest trek of a young female fisher (Pekania pennanti) moving 118 kilometers (over 73 miles) from Durham to the outskirts of Lincoln, a small town in New Hampshire's White Mountains. This trip marks the longest known recorded dispersal for the species. [...]
New research co-led by Liu-Qin Yang, a professor of psychology at Portland State University (PSU), suggests that the true damage of a toxic boss goes far deeper than a bad mood—it fundamentally alters how employees perceive their own humanity. Published in the Journal of Occupational Health Psychology, the study identifies "organizational dehumanization" as the primary mechanism that strips employees of their agency, leading to severe burnout and a collapse in workplace collaboration. [...]
Microbial bioelectronic sensors use living bacteria that can create an electrical signal in response to the presence of a target substance, or analyte. These types of sensors offer many advantages over other types of biosensors based on proteins and enzymes: The bacteria can perform multiple functions, survive in a variety of environments and even grow and regenerate for potential long-term use. [...]

More than 7.5 million people immerse themselves in lakes, rivers, seas and lidos every year in the UK. But getting in the water means getting in pollution too for most outdoor swimmers. Raw sewage was discharged into UK waters for 4.7 million hours during 2024. But sewage is only part of the water pollution problem. Rain washing into rivers and streams contains fertilizers, pesticides and animal waste from farmlands, forever chemicals from car tires, plus drugs from our own bodies. Industry deregulation and privatization have produced a water crisis. [...]
The performance horse industry had a problem: Some of their most beloved and sought-after mares simply couldn't have foals safely. To make matters more complicated, in vitro fertilization (IVF) had not yet produced a healthy equine embryo, despite years of success in other species like cattle. [...]
In the middle of the old-growth forests of Congaree National Park in South Carolina, fireflies put on an otherworldly display every May. Thousands of male insects belonging to the species Photuris frontalis flash together at the same time and follow the exact same pattern—a synchronous light show you can see only in few places in the United States. [...]
Wet wipes conveniently clean and sanitize soiled surfaces and skin. Because some labels do not clearly indicate how consumers should dispose of them, these small cloths are often flushed down the toilet and released by sewage plants into waterways. Now, researchers report in ACS ES&T Water that some of these wipes break down into plastic fibers, or microplastics, that could harm aquatic life. [...]
Dragonfly integration and testing—the activities involved in assembling the mission's rotorcraft lander and testing it for the rigors of launch and extreme conditions of space—is officially underway in clean rooms and control rooms at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) in Laurel, Maryland. [...]
Wildlife populations that become small and isolated, often due to habitat loss, inevitably experience inbreeding which can lead to the loss of fitness and eventual extinction. One solution is to perform a genetic rescue: a management intervention where new blood is brought in by introducing outsiders to a population to reduce inbreeding and restore diversity. But how do researchers know the inbreeding problem has been solved? [...]
Multiferroic metals are materials that exhibit both electric polarization and magnetic order in the same crystal—a state known as multiferroicity. Because these properties coexist, they can interact through magnetoelectric (ME) coupling, allowing electric fields to influence magnetism. [...]
MLIP calculations successfully identify suitable dopants for a novel photocatalytic material, report researchers from the Institute of Science Tokyo. As demonstrated in their study, published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, a materials informatics approach could predict which ions can be stably introduced into orthorhombic Sn3O4, a promising and recently discovered photocatalytic tin oxide. [...]
An international team from China and Italy has reported a possible cosmic encore to the landmark 2017 multi-messenger discovery. In November 2024, the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observatories detected gravitational waves from a binary black hole merger, designated S241125n. Remarkably, just seconds later, satellites recorded a short gamma-ray burst (GRB) from the same region of the sky. [...]
