Synopsis:
Why is everyone suddenly talking about ibogaine?
After President Trump signed an executive order fast-tracking psychedelic research, a little-known plant medicine from Central Africa found itself at the center of a national conversation. Advocates call it a breakthrough for addiction, PTSD, and traumatic brain injury. Critics urge caution. But how did we get here?
In the first episode of The Ibogaine Inquiries, Ky Dickens and Katherine Ellis trace ibogaine's unlikely path from sacred ceremonies in Gabon to veterans seeking healing in Mexico, and ultimately to the halls of American politics. Along the way, former Texas Governor Rick Perry, Admiral Jim Hancock, and physician Dr. Martín Polanco share the personal experiences that transformed them from skeptics into advocates.
