This week on the Green Rush, we’re reaching way back into the vault to revisit Lewis Goldberg and Anne Donohoe first interviewed Rick Doblin, Founder and Executive Director of MAPS. Founded by Rick in 1986, the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit research and educational organization that develops medical, legal, and cultural contexts for people to benefit from the careful uses of psychedelics and marijuana.
In this episode, Lewis and Anne spoke with Rick about the FDA regulated MDMA trials being run by MAPS as well as some of the ways Rick was keeping himself occupied and focused at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Over the decades, Rick Doblin has established himself as a leading authority on the renaissance of psychedelics and his insights on how these molecules may be able to solve the global mental health crisis will not be something that you want to miss.
So sit back, relax and listen to our special fireside chat with Rick Doblin.
