About the Channel

The Third Wave, founded by Paul Austin, is one of the most established psychedelic education brands online — with a deep focus on microdosing, intentional psychedelic use, and integration. The Third Wave YouTube channel covers microdosing protocols (the original Fadiman protocol and the Stamets Stack), facilitator interviews, retreat reviews, and entry-level education for people new to the space. Their content is structured around the framing that we are in a 'third wave' of psychedelic culture — past the 1960s counterculture wave and the 1990s rave/recreational wave, into a phase characterized by intentionality, integration, and personal development.

Editorial Context

The Third Wave fills a specific niche: the educated, professional, integration-focused audience that wants to use psychedelics intentionally rather than recreationally or clinically. Their microdosing content is among the most-watched on YouTube and has been influential in normalizing low-dose psilocybin protocols for cognitive and mood benefits.
