Psychedelic Policy Podcast

About the Channel

The Psychedelic Policy Podcast YouTube channel tracks the rapidly evolving legal and regulatory landscape for psilocybin and other psychedelics across all 50 states, federal agencies, and international jurisdictions. Content covers state ballot initiatives in real time (Oregon Measure 109 implementation, Colorado Proposition 122, active campaigns in Massachusetts, Michigan, and California), FDA regulatory pathway updates for psilocybin-assisted therapy, DEA scheduling proceedings, VA psychedelic therapy program expansions, and comparative analysis of different legal models — decriminalization versus regulated access versus full legalization. The channel features regular interviews with drug policy attorneys, state legislators, harm reduction advocates, and regulatory experts navigating the interface between federal scheduling and state-level programs. A valuable resource for advocates, practitioners, patients, and investors who need to understand the regulatory environment rather than just track headlines.
