    Sorry to disappoint you, but you’re not going to see Derek Watts munching on a stalk or three.

    Still, the fact that one of South Africa’s most respected investigative shows is taking a closer look at the scientific use of psilocybin (found in so-called ‘magic mushrooms’) is certainly a step in the right direction.

    The international scientific community has been studying the positive effects that psychedelics can have on people suffering from depression, anxiety, and addiction for years, but psilocybin remains banned in South Africa.

    Here’s more from Carte Blanche:

    Facing criminal charges has done little to stem the enthusiasm of a shroom adherent who is now also trying to have the ban on psilocybin lifted in court.

    We observe her magic mushroom ceremonies, which have moved online in response to lockdown, as participants from here and abroad join her in Zoom meetings, ingest psilocybin and are monitored by online observers as they enter a psychedelic state.

    Not quite as dramatic as an ayahuasca ceremony, by all accounts, but hopefully a greater understanding of the benefits of psychedelics will lead to a legal change.

    Take it away, Derek:
