Ethical Iboga: Bwiti, Indigenous Knowledge & the Cost of the Iboga Boom with Yann Guignon
Épisode 248
mardi 23 juin 2026 • Durée 01:31:27
Yann Guignon embodies a rare path, at the crossroads of worlds and histories. Franco-Gabonese by adoption—under the guidance of Professor Jean Noël Gassita—and by marriage, he has spent over two decades building a unique bridge between Africa and the West, between living traditions and modernity.
His commitment began in 2004, when he entered an initiatory journey within several Gabonese rites. Initiated into Bwiti in 2006, he gradually developed a deep relationship with traditional knowledge holders. Over the years, this involvement led to his recognition as a guardian of tradition, and to his appointment as International Ambassador of the Association Maghanga Ma Nzambé, an organization dedicated to preserving and transmitting Gabonese traditional medicine.
But his journey goes far beyond a personal quest. As a consultant in intercultural mediation and sustainable development, he is actively engaged in addressing a deeper issue: the need to repair the imbalances inherited from the colonial history between the West and Africa. His approach is grounded in a strong conviction: traditional knowledge systems are neither archaic nor folkloric—they are fully-fledged systems of knowledge that must be recognized, protected, and fairly valued.
As scientific and industrial interest in iboga and ibogaine continues to grow, he was among the first to raise concerns about potential risks: knowledge extraction, marginalization of traditional communities, and unequal distribution of value. Where others see a market, he sees responsibility.
He went on to found Blessings of the Forest, an NGO dedicated to the conservation of Gabon’s cultural and natural heritage. Through this work, he strives to build concrete bridges between local communities, institutions, and international stakeholders, advocating for models based on equity, reciprocity, and respect for international frameworks such as the Nagoya Protocol.
Both in the field and on the international stage, he carries a distinct voice—that of a mediator, at once witness, actor, and bridge-builder. A voice that reminds us that behind every molecule studied, there is a story, a culture, and communities that must not be rendered invisible.

Psychedelics, Cartels, Capitalism & the Crisis of the Container - Dr. Del Potter
Épisode 245
mardi 19 mai 2026 • Durée 01:14:53
Del Potter, PhD is an ethnopsychopharmacologist, chemist, and psychedelic pioneer whose career has moved across some of the most consequential and unconventional edges of the field, from Mesoamerican field research and underground manufacturing to cutting-edge pharmaceutical development and clinical trials. He brings a rare perspective to the psychedelic renaissance: not as a commentator, but as someone who was inside the apparatus that produced these compounds long before the current wave had a name.
Dr. Potter holds a PhD from a joint program between the UCSF Medical School and UC Berkeley's Department of Anthropology, specializing in psychiatric anthropology, ethnopsychopharmacology, and neuropharmacology, with additional clinical training at the San Francisco Psychoanalytic Institute. His postdoctoral fieldwork examined shamanic traditions and indigenous psychotherapeutic practice across multiple lineages, including ceremonial psilocybin and Salvia divinorum use among the Mazatec of central Mexico, ayahuasca and yagé ritual among the Shuar of Ecuador, and parallel traditions among the Yanomami of Brazil and the Cofán of Colombia, contributing to Richard Evans Schultes' comprehensive survey of psychotropic botanicals worldwide. A formative mentorship with Alexander Shulgin oriented his chemistry toward novel tryptamine compounds, particularly in the DMT and 5-MeO-DMT structural classes, and he has since developed a portfolio of compounds that retain the neuroplasticity associated with psychedelic receptor activity while producing no psychedelic effect.
On the pharmaceutical and biotech side, Dr. Potter served as Chief Science Officer at Leef Holdings, designing what became California's largest fully automated medical cannabis manufacturing facility, and later directed first-in-human 5-MeO-DMT clinical trials at UCSF through his work with Alvarius Pharmaceuticals, followed by a Phase 1 trial at Trinity College Dublin. At University College Dublin, he developed and validated the use of human stem cell-derived brain organoids to assess how psychedelic compounds reverse epigenetic changes caused by substance abuse. In 2023 he founded Spiritus Bioscience to develop novel delivery formats for psilocin, DMT, and 5-MeO-DMT, with the first product entering clinical trials in Australia targeting Alcohol Use Disorder. He currently serves as founder and CSO of BioUnbound Inc., exploring the intersection of psychedelics and bioactive peptides for mental health and longevity applications.
