About the Channel
DoubleBlind is the preeminent independent psychedelic publication, co-founded by journalists Madison Margolin and Shelby Hartman. The magazine has built a reputation for nuanced, deeply-reported feature journalism on psychedelics — covering policy, science, culture, indigenous traditions, and the social dynamics of the emerging psychedelic industry with a sophistication absent from most coverage. Their YouTube content extends that journalism into video form: founder interviews, scientist conversations, policy explainers, and visual storytelling on topics ranging from facilitator training programs to ayahuasca lineage politics. Madison Margolin's writing on ayahuasca, trauma, and healing among Israelis and Palestinians (Ayin Press) is among the most nuanced psychedelic journalism produced anywhere.
Editorial Context
DoubleBlind is what serious psychedelic journalism looks like in 2026. Where most psychedelic coverage is either advocacy or industry PR, DoubleBlind treats the space as a legitimate beat — sourcing critically, reporting on uncomfortable internal politics, and giving voice to perspectives (indigenous, queer, racial-justice-oriented) often sidelined in mainstream psychedelic media.
