	Description:		The journalist delves into the history of experimental psychopathy treatment in Canada, which included mass, nude LSD trips. Years ago, journalist Jon Ronson did a course on how to spot a psychopath. People with psychopathic tendencies tend to use certain patterns of behaviour, turns of phrase, and a decoy mask of normality. Then Jon went out and met with men who had committed violent crimes, or had used their traits to make extraordinary amounts of money, and who had been locked up, for years, all because of their psychopathy. And in the process of his research, Jon learned something about himself. This episode of Conversations touches on psychopaths, sociopaths, the Hare checklist, Jon Ronson, psychopathic traits, CEOs, murderers, life stories, prison, jail, psychiatric institutions, LSD and psychotherapy.
