Episode 128 - Mycology, Mushroom Lore, and Psychedelic Fungi: What We’re Still Figuring Out with guest Alan Rockefeller

On this episode of Shaping Fire, host Shango Los talks with world-renowned mycologist Alan Rockefeller about the cubensis species complex, the myriad mushrooms still to be named, unknown evolutionary pressures, the necessity and variety of secondary metabolites, wood lover’s paralysis, and mycelium versus fruiting body mushroom supplements.
