Bonus: After the Interview, Our Guest Had Some Questions

Published: May 24, 2024, 7 a.m.

In our episode with Jim Harris, we talked about how a spinal cord injury left him partially paralyzed, and then how 8 months into his recovery he regained some lost sensation and movement after taking psilocybin at a music festival. When we recorded, we talked for a long time\u2026.right up to when his window of availability was closing.\xa0\nBut as I wrapped up and got ready to say goodbye, he said: can I ask you a few questions?\xa0It was interesting to hear what he was wondering about after I\u2019d asked him questions for such a long stretch. So we kept talking\u2026 and we thought we\u2019d share that with you too.\xa0\nPodcast production by Andrew Dunn.\nThis episode is member-exclusive. Listen to it now by subscribing to Slate Plus.
