The Ibogaine Inquiries

society, culture, science, religion, spirituality · EN

In this five-part limited series presented by TTT Media, hosts Ky Dickens and Katherine Ellis trace ibogaine’s journey from the forests of Central Africa to underground treatment centers, scientific research labs, and the highest levels of American government. Along the way, we investigate its remarkable effects, the mysteries surrounding consciousness and healing, the risks of a powerful and medically serious substance, and the growing debate over who should benefit from its rise. Through conversations with researchers, veterans, clinicians, Bwiti practitioners, Indigenous advocates, and people whose lives have been transformed by the medicine, The Ibogaine Inquiries asks a larger question: Can the world explore ibogaine’s potential without repeating the same patterns of extraction, erasure, and exploitation that have shaped its history?
