Fascinating Fungi and the Humans Who Consume Them?🍄👀😶💩👽 😱😵

I have never consumed psychedelic or poisonous mushrooms, but I eat mushrooms from my local supermarket all the time in my homecooked pasta dishes.

I've always stated on this blog that at some point in my life I wouldn't mind trying psychedelic mushrooms in the right set and setting, as I hear people talking about the great trips (and sometimes not so great trips) the mushrooms have shown them, like whacky podcast host Chris Mathieu who is making a film about his mushroom experiences and who praises mushrooms as showing him the way through his life.

Although, listening to some of his whacky beliefs at his FKN site I'm not so sure "the mushrooms" are such good guides in 

his amazing life labrinth;-)

Maybe I should just stick with my PiGS and steer clear of mushrooms for guidance?-)

The last week or two I have stumbled upon various podcast episodes on the subject of mushrooms and why human beings find eating them so fascinating.

Especially this Conversations podcast below featuring Alison Pouliot, who I would feel rather confident sharing a home cooked meal of Beef Wellington at her dining table and not being accidentally poisoned if she had a beef with me.

If I died after consuming that meal at her table, then I would know that Alison really did have a beef with me, so to speak;-)

Fantastic and fascinating fungi

I only found the Fantastic Conversations mushroom podcast when I was searching for podcasts that Chris Haywood had been on lately and who I wrote about in this recent post -

The Way, My Way?🥾🥾

Conversations Podcast: Chris Haywood

I haven't listened to the ABC Conversations Podcast for some time, as it got rather boring to me a while back with some of the guests they were featuring and I flicked it off my podcast list, but I might have to put the podcast back on my podcast list, as I see a few recent ones that look like a good listen ... if that makes any sense?

And you can't pick up a Queensland newspaper lately without seeing something about mushrooms, although it's usually ads and articles about 'The Mushroom Cook'.

Life and Crimes Podcast:
Introducing: The Mushroom Cook 

If psychedelic mushrooms are meant to come from off planet, as an intelligence seeding source by aliens, as some "new agers" believe, then what about the poisonous variety I wonder?

I may have to go ask Alice about that one ... or Alison?-)

At least my backyard fungi ate out my old tree stumps to the point that I could easily dig them out and plant my lemon and lime trees in their place.
When life gives you fungi make lemons and limes I say ... and avoid people who invite you to dinner over Beef Wellington;-)
