Dr. Andrew G. Lee is a professor in the Departments of Ophthalmology, Neurology, and Neurosurgery at Weill Cornell Medical College, is currently the Chair of the Blanton Eye Institute at Houston Methodist Hospital, has been on the editorial board of fourteen scientific journals, and my favorite part of Andrew’s CV is his YouTube channel called “Neuro-Ophthalmology with Dr. Andrew G. Lee” because it’s tremendously interesting and educational. I invite Andrew on the podcast to enlighten us about some neuro-ophthalmology basics and hallucinogen persisting perception disorder, also known as HPPD, regarding iboga visions. Topics of discussion include: how the eyes are literal windows to the brain; the likelihood of visionary persistence becoming permanent; visions come from the brain, not the eyes; the parts that constitute the eye—brain axis; the difference between hallucination and illusion; whether visually impaired people experience psychedelic-induced visionary phenomena; the intersection of psychedelics, neuroplasticity, and visions; and the main complaints reported by HPPD sufferers.

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.
