  • Can mushrooms help with stress, colds and creative thoughts as well as help bees toward an ever-increasing epidemic? Paul Stamets is one of the world's foremost in fungal research and has a total of 18 patents within the use of different types of fungi.


    Paul has won numerous awards and his person is also a role in Star Trek: Discovery! I could write paragraph after paragraph about everything this man has done, but I choose to write a little about how his lectures at TED and at the Colosseum have influenced how I think about fungi.


    I have always thought of mushrooms as either something I have in the food or have to avoid as dangerous in the forest. That a fungus could help against "common" diseases was completely new to me and that at the same time it can help bees from living 4 days to 9 days was completely unknown!


    Can really a fungus I take for granted and part of nature be a part of an ever increasing environmental problem and can it really help me when I need it? After listening to Paul, I am in any case convinced that I will become more familiar with mushrooms and at the same time he had a great impact on my new podcast project on the environment, sustainability and innovation :)


    We talk about:


    Interest in mushrooms at 5 year old


    The forbidden fruit


    100 employees


    paradigm shift


    Magic mushrooms (Psilocybin) once or twice a year

    The massive bee death and how it can be saved


    18 patents


    Pompous and selfish


    Had never happened without the use of Psilocybin


    Fungus against colds or flu

  • Colin O'Brady is an American pro endurance athlete, mountain climber, adventurer, and professional speaker.

    O'Brady is a two-time world record holder for the Explorers Grand Slam (Last Degree) and Seven Summits speed records. He became the fastest person to complete the adventurers challenges in 139 days and 131 days respectively.

    He is a former professional triathlete and represented the United States on the ITU Triathlon World Cup circuit, racing in 25 countries on six continents from 2009-2015.

    In 2007, O'Brady began what was planned as a year long backpacking trip around the world. In January 2008, while on the island of Koh Tao, he suffered a devastating burn injury. O'Brady participated in the local custom of fire jump-roping and was tripped by the burning kerosene-soaked rope. Although he instinctively ran into the ocean to extinguish the flames, he suffered second and third-degree burns to nearly 25% of his body, primarily damaging his legs and feet.

    12 hours after the accident, he was transported by truck and boat to a hospital in Koh Samui. After a week and 8 surgeries he was transferred to a larger hospital in Bangkok. The doctors warned him that he might never regain the ability to walk normally. He took his first step the following month. "I was determined to beat the odds and focused all my energy on one day completing a triathlon to prove to myself I could make a full recovery," O'Brady said in a 2016 interview

    O'Brady moved to Chicago where he took a job as a commodities trader following the accident. He learned how to walk again, and for a year focused on physical rehabilitation. He began to train for triathlon; swimming, cycling, and running.

    In May 2009 he won a sprint-distance triathlon in Racine, Wisconsin and in August 2009 he placed 1st overall amateur in the Olympic-distance Chicago Triathlon. He then placed in the age-group nationals in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, which earned him a position on Team USA at the 2010 World Triathlon Championships in Budapest, Hungary. In late 2009, encouraged by his mentor, financier Brian Gelber, O'Brady quit his job to pursue a career as a professional athlete.

    With Gelber as a sponsor, he moved to Australia to train in a more temperate climate. O'Brady has since completed more than 50 triathlons, ranging from sprint distance to Ironman competitions.
