The Spirit Pharmacist: Psychedelic Safety, SSRIs with Ben Malcolm PharmD MPH
S1E6: The Spirit Pharmacist: Psychedelic Safety, SSRIs, and the Myth of Serotonin Syndrome
Join host Jim Tate and his guest Ben Malcolm, PharmD, MPH. known globally as The Spirit Pharmacist, for a deep, science-grounded exploration of psychedelic pharmacology, psychiatric medications, and safety. From SSRI tapering and serotonin syndrome myths to psilocybin dosing, ibogaine’s role in opioid addiction, and the neurobiology of addiction interruption, Malcolm bridges academic rigor with compassionate harm-reduction. This conversation challenges outdated assumptions, clarifies real versus imagined risks, and underscores the urgent need for accessible, evidence-based psychedelic education.

Inside the Revival: From Lab Bench to Maloka with Melissa Stangl
S1E3: Melissa Stangl on Soltara’s Shipibo-Guided Ayahuasca Model, Safety Screening, and Integration That Actually Sticks. In this timely conversation, host Jim Tate engages Melissa Stangl, Founding Partner & Chief Operating Officer (COO), Soltara Healing Center, about her unlikely pivot from biomedical engineering and cancer research into the operational “backbone” of plant medicine work. Melissa walks through Soltara’s decision to focus on ayahuasca in the Shipibo tradition, why Costa Rica became the home base, and how the retreat arc is designed – from intake, medical/therapy screening, and preparation to post-retreat integration support. Along the way, we unpack practical realities: medication contraindications (especially SSRIs + MAOI risk), why some guests report ‘nothing happened,’ (a failure to hit escape vel;ocity – of you will) individualized dosing, and why Soltara treats integration as a year-long continuum – not an afterthought.
