Síntesis del Episodio

In this episode, the Irish anthropologist Mark Mc Erlean shares with us his non antropocentric approach to social relations in the Wirikuta dessert. He discusses the polemic use of the peyote cactus, also known as the Lophophora williamsii. His trenchant yet jocular point of view shares light on these interesting matters, making use of peculiar concepts such as irony and circumlocution. Enjoy! 
A special thank you to Lexi Flores and Rocky Portillo for coming through with the intro and the outro.
Production and interview by Joan Francisco Matamoros Sanin
