About this episode
Psilocybin isn’t legal in Washington state, but a growing number of people are interested in using it recreationally and therapeutically. Researchers at the University of Washington are studying how psilocybin can be used to help with trauma and alcohol use disorder. We’ll talk more about medical and recreational use of psilocybin with KUOW Online Editor Stephen Howie. We can only make Seattle Now because listeners support us.
