About this episode
In Episode 29 of The Psychedelic Christian Podcast, we are joined by Dr. Bryan McCarthy. Bryan is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Pittsburgh, Greensburg. His scholarship focuses on how material things augment or hinder authentic religiosity and spirituality. This work & research has two prongs: the phenomenology of clothing and the religiosity of psychedelic medicine. Specifically, he is interested in the extent to which clothing and psychedelics shape our self-experience and how this impacts religious and spiritual pursuits. Dr. McCarthy recently published “Christianity and Psychedelic Medicine: A Pastoral Approach” as well as a collaboration with another guest of the Psychedelic Christian Podcast, Rev. Hunt Priest, called “Psychedelic Christianity: From evangelical hippies and Roman Catholic intellectuals in the sixties to clergy in a Johns Hopkins clinical trial”.
Dr. McCarthy is currently conducting a study, that you are welcome to participate in, on psychedelic experiences with Christian elements that we’ll be discussing in this episode.
