Hey, this is Tim Keck, host of the Mush Love Podcast. Like a
lot of people, I've been getting into mushrooms. And after talking to the
smartest people on the subject, I've discovered that not only are mushrooms
weird and super cool, but the people who are into mushrooms are also weird and
super cool. On the Mush Love Podcast, I'll be talking to those people. Of
course, we'll be talking about psychedelics. But did you know that there are
some type of mushrooms that glow in the dark, or that there's a fungus that
turns ants into zombies, or that pretty much every world religion has a history
of tripping on mushrooms, like seriously tripping, tripping balls. Let's
explore together on the Mush Love Podcast, available wherever you get your
podcast or visit us at themushlovepodcast.com.
