Dr. Steve Katsikas is a professor of clinical psychology and Chair of the School of Professional Psychology at Spalding University in Louisville, Kentucky, where he teaches undergraduate and graduate courses. His research interests include but are not limited to: assessment and treatment of children with behavioral difficulties, cross-cultural differences in childrearing practices, the effects of psychostimulants on weight change in Hispanic children. I should also mention that Steve recently was named Kentucky psychologist of the year in addition to being elected president of the Kentucky Psychological Association. In this episode we speak about Steve’s and his two colleagues', Dr. Heink and Dr. Lange-Altman, study that resulted in a 2017 academic journal paper called: “Examination of the Phenomenology of the Ibogaine Treatment Experience: Role of Altered States of Consciousness and Psychedelic Experiences.” Other topics we discuss are: how they found study participants for their online survey; whether the pharmacology/chemistry of ibogaine or the visionary effects is the most important factor in opioid addiction interruption; comparing notes: his study’s findings with my own personal experiences with TA extract; the three phases of the experience; the illogical scheduling of psychedelics in the United States that counter proven health benefits; and his interest and tentative ideas in conducting a follow-up study.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
