Ketamine Part 1: Origins

Ep. 1

The seminal episode of The Trip Report Report! We discuss Ketamine's origins in the Parke-Davis lab and how it was fast-tracked through the FDA by testing it on prison inmates for use in the Vietnam war. Then we dive into some trip reports from Erowid and yes - there's a large jar of piss involved. IYKYK.

  • 4. Ketamine Part 4: Ketamine's High Priestess

    01:29:59||Ep. 4
    We read at length from an early account of explorations with Ketamine from the self-proclaimed High Priestess of Ketamine herself: Marcia Moore. We talk about Marcia's life, and seminal therapeutic Ketamine text: Journey's Into the Bright World. This is a text heavy episode, but I think it's worth it for the canon. Featuring a cute John & Toni Lilly cameo later in the episode.If you want this show to continue AND get access to more content like extended trip reports and Bonus Episodes, subscribe to our Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/c/TripReportReportFollow us on Instagram @tripreportreportCheck out our ever growing list of harm reduction resources at tripreportreport.comTranscript LinkCOMING SOONSources Referenced in this EpisodeMarcia Moore "Journeys Into the Bright World" [1978] https://archive.org/details/journeysbrightworld"The mysterious death of the ketamine priestess" by Jules Evans, Ed Prideaux, and James Penner https://www.ecstaticintegration.org/p/the-mysterious-death-of-the-ketamineMARCIA S.

  • 3. Ketamine Part 3: Into the Lillyverse

    01:29:42||Ep. 3
    The John C. Lilly episode! We discuss John Lilly's love and abuse of dolphins, potential three letter agency affiliations, float tanks (he invented them!), and of course, Ketamine. We read at length from John's autobiography, The Scientist, and discuss his proclivity for taking massive amounts of Ketamine later in his life.

  • 2. Ketamine Part 2: 2 Ket 2 Mine

    01:19:36||Ep. 2
    In this one we discuss Ketamine's first use in a therapeutic setting and Salvador Roquet's sensory-overload psychedelic sessions in Mexico City. We talk about the first Yale study on Ketamine as a treatment for major depression, and the slew of studies and meta analysis that came next. Then we read two trip reports from people who have different goals for their Ketamine use.
