I'm with Greg Kubin. It's Friday afternoon. I get to talk about psychedelics today. Kind of excited for that. Greg, I have been listening to you talk about psychedelics and mental health on your podcast and it's so good. Congratulations on making a good podcast.

If listeners are interested in knowing what ketamine therapy is, Greg goes and gets a shot of it in his arm on like one of the first episodes.

Very first episode. It was dramatic. It was like suspenseful.  I mean, I would say with an intramuscular shot of ketamine you don't exactly know what the experience will be like.  It kind of shoots you into a liminal space and yeah, in that experience I had, I would say, a few notable memories from it.
