Bryan McCarthy is a teacher of Philosophy at University of Pittsburgh- Greensburg and is running a study on Psychedelics exploring the cross-section of psychedelics and Christian spirituality. In this wide-ranging conversation we talk about all things psychedelic- from how to design a solid study on the research side, to how to hold compassionate space, to what are the crossovers between religion and psychedelics.
