Divergent States

science, life, society, culture, philosophy · EN-US

Divergent States cuts through psychedelic hype with grounded, curious conversations about what these substances actually do. Hosted by 3L1T3, founder of r/Psychonaut, the world’s largest psychedelic harm-reduction community, and co-hosted by Bryan, a USMC veteran and advocate for psychedelic healing, the show brings together lived experience, science, and culture without losing its sense of humor. This isn’t a spiritual podcast. This isn’t a marketing platform. No mysticism. No sales pitch. Just real conversations, harm reduction, and honest questions. We explore how psychedelics shape mental health, creativity, and society, from underground use and peer-support communities to clinical trials, therapy rooms, and shifting public attitudes. Some episodes get serious. Some get weird. All of them are grounded in respect for the people actually taking these substances and living with the outcomes.
