Parvesh Cheena

The Non Drinking Buddies talk to actor Parvesh Cheena about useful tools for staying alcohol-free, harm reduction and cannabis usage.

Note: When discussing Michael Pollan and hallucinogenic plants, Anne incorrectly mentioned “Paul Mescal” as a smokable plant. She meant “peyote” which sounds NOTHING like Paul Mescal who is an Irish actor. Maybe she meant “mescaline” which is a psychoactive alkaloid in peyote, but probably not. She probably just meant Paul Mescal.
