If a facilitator comes up to me and says, I think you need another dose, but I don't want

to give you mushrooms to eat, I'm going to give you a tea.

So I drank that tea.

Hey Hannah, hey Lila, okay wait, I know that voice, is that who I think it is?

Yeah, it's the one and only newest host of fresh air on NPR.

The Tanya Mosley, is she taking magic mushrooms?

She is taking magic mushrooms, also called psilocybin.

All right, hey Natalie, this is our producer, Natalie.

Natalie, what is going on? Is Tanya tripping?

Yeah, you could say she's tripping, but you know the good kind of tripping.

So this is the focus of her new season of her podcast, Truth Be Told.

And on this season, she explores the impact of psychedelics on healing and the movement

to decriminalize psychedelics. Okay, so I'm going to need some breaking down of all of this,

and Natalie, you're going to walk us through this, right?

Yes, okay, so here's the story. Tanya goes to Jamaica, and it's a popular destination for these

guided magic mushroom sessions. And I immediately was transported, like I could feel it.

It was almost like I left my body. I could feel and hear everything in this new place,

which was a forest, and I love forests. My feet were bare, and I could feel my feet on the grass,

and the grass felt like that perfect wetness, you know, when you go out right in the morning,

and there's the dew on the grass. And I looked up, and my grandmother was standing there.

She is probably one of the most important people in my life.

So Natalie, Tanya is in another realm. Natalie, you have to tell us more. Let's do this out.
