Psychedelics: Time to Deregulate?

In this episode of The Small Print, Brownyn is joined by entrepreneur and psychedelics aficionado Ronen Aires. They look back at the history of psychedelics, their therapeutic powers, and Ronen’s own experience with them. Bronwyn and Ronen also discuss the benefits of legalizing these substances, as well as South Africa’s opportunity to become the healing destination for the rest of the world.
