The Mushroom Hour Podcast

Exploring mycology education, urban revitalization in Detroit, and engaging kids with fungi. From self-publishing a mushroom book to microdosing psilocybin, the podcast covers a range of fascinating topics. Dive into foraging for fungi, the intersection of technology and nature education, and the significance of lion's mane mushroom in new motherhood.

Ian Bollinger joins to discuss mycological analytics, community science, and entheogenic genomes. They touch on chemical analysis, human beings as scientists, and gatekeeping vs guardianship. They also explore the compounds in fungi, field studies in Mexico, and the surreal journey of Ian. The chapter highlights the Hyphe Cup, analyzing compounds in enthia genic mushrooms, the role of terpenes in immune response, and the need for better testing in the medicinal industry. This podcast builds a network for mushroom analysis and education.

Part 2 of our mind-expanding interview with William Padilla-Brown. This interview was taped after our radio interview (Episode 166) and is even more informal and loose.

Today on Mushroom Hour we have the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Francisco Kuhar. Dr. Kuhar is a Mycologist specialized in the fungal diversity of gasteroid and ectomycorrhizal fungi and biotechnological applications of fungal enzymes. He has a special interest in the evolutionary biology of sequestrate forms of fungi. Dr. Kuhar is an Associate researcher at CONICET in the Instituto Multidisciplinario de Biologia Vegetal (IMBIV - UNC), curator of Fungi at the CORD Herbarium and one of the leaders of Inommy Labs helping to pioneer a new fungi-based product platform.   TOPICS:    Freud, Linguistics and Life Sciences   Hongos in Patagonia   See the Future in a Spore   Hypogeous & Sequestrate Fungi   Pedomorphosis    Mutations Happening too Fast in the Evolutionary Record   Are We Too Obsessed with Adaptation in Evolutionary Biology?   The Story of Rhizopogon and Suillis     Alan Turing Equations Predicting Biological Forms   Approaching Scientific Questions with an Open Mind   Burning Questions on Underground Fungi   Matching Genetics to Traits in Fungi   Inommy Labs   Fungal Bioprospecting    LINKS:   Francisco Kuhar IG: https://www.instagram.com/franfungi   Innomy Labs: http://innomylabs.com/index.html   Hongos De Argentina: https://hongos.ar/   "Ontogeny and Phylogeny": https://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog.php?isbn=9780674639416   Turing pattern: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_pattern   Geastrum genus: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geastrum   

Hi there…welcome to Mushroom Hour. Today on Mushroom Hour we are graced by the presence of author, researcher, and mycological maven Elise Rothman. Coming to us from her hideaway in the woods and wilds of France, Elise is here to share her newest creation – a set of mushroom identification card decks that have been lovingly crafted with beautiful artwork and thoughtful graphic design elements that will help mycologists and ordinary folk alike to identify common edibles, deadly toxic and psychoactive mushrooms in North America and Europe. And I’m excited to learn everything about this project including a brand-new form of mushroom identification methodology.   TOPICS:   Entering St. George’s Fairy Ring   Mushroom Identification Cards   Deck 1 – The Edibles   Collaborating with Scientific Advisors    Deck 2 – The Deadlies   Artistic License and Composite Mushroom Artwork   Features of a Mushroom   The Twins – Separating Edible from Deadly   What is a “Lookalike”?   A New Methodology for Mushroom Identification   Deck 3 – The Wild Ones   Rethinking Identification with Psychoactives   Mushrooms in France   Breaking the Publishing Mold   EPISODE RESOURCES:   WhichFungi website: http://whichfungi.com/   WhichFungi IG: https://www.instagram.com/p/CufBjBDMxwL/   Russula cyanoxantha: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russula_cyanoxantha

Today on Mushroom Hour we have the honor of being joined once again by mycological legend Daniel Winkler. A mushroom educator, trained ecologist and award-winning photographer, he grew up collecting mushrooms in the Alps. Daniel has been foraging for more than 25 years in the Pacific Northwest, in addition to South America and High Asia, where he is involved in ethnomycological fieldwork. He served as vice president of the Puget Sound Mycological Society, who recognized his lifetime of service with their Golden Mushroom Award. Through his travel agency, Mushroaming, Daniel runs mushroom-focused eco-tours to Tibet, Bhutan, the Amazon, Colombia and the Austrian Alps as well as in the Pacific Northwest. Today we’re going to dive into his newest field guide “Fruits of the Forest” – A Field Guide to Pacific Northwest Edible Mushrooms.    TOPICS:    Mushroaming Tours & Book Deals   Creating a Mushroom Guide Focused on Edibility   Lobsters, Scaberstalks and Wooly Chanterelles   How You Prepare Your Mushrooms Makes a Big Difference   Under-Researched Compounds in US Common Mushrooms   Old Mushrooms, Rotten Proteins and Stomach Upset   Gyromitra Controversy   Mitigating Toxicity When Eating Wild Mushrooms    Getting Comfortable with Bugs in Your Wild Mushrooms?   Shaggy Parasols   Nutritional Value of Mushrooms   Diversify Your Fungal Portfolio   Grounded Approach to Medicinal Mushrooms   Wild Mushroom Recipes   EPISODE RESOURCES:   BOOK LINK: https://www.mushroaming.com/node/253   Mushroaming Website: https://mushroaming.com/   Daniel Winkler IG: https://www.instagram.com/themushroamer/   "All the Rain Promises and More": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_That_the_Rain_Promises_and_More...   Chlorophyllum genus: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlorophyllum   Russula brevipes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russula_brevipes   Leccinum scabrum: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leccinum_scabrum   Turbinellus floccosus: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbinellus_floccosus   Laccaria amethystina: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laccaria_amethystina   "Mushrooms Poisons and Panaceas": https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6387576-mushrooms
