The MUstaSH ROOM Podcast
“Reset.” That’s the first step in troubleshooting electronics, right? Just unplug it, plug it back in and wait for the magic to happen.
Unfortunately, the process of resetting is much harder when the subject is human.
It takes a lot more work: therapy, self-help books, SSRIs, etc. Sometimes, even that’s not enough. For me, it also took meditation and psychedelics. And the combination of the two changed my life.
Sustained, strategic use of psilocybin, coupled with regular transcendental (mantra-based) meditation have forced me to deal with deeply-rooted issues I couldn’t resolve by traditional means. Imagine hearing closing arguments from your objective inner self, just to open your eyes with a clearer outlook. There’s more to it than “take five grams of fungi and call me in the morning,” of course, but it's definitely not rocket science.
I started this podcast to educate listeners about mushroom cultivation and consumption—from purchasing spores (legal in most states) to harvesting flushes of beautifully potent fungi. I’m in Denver, Colorado, where psilocybin is “decriminalized” but still illegal to sell or distribute. The rest of the country is, unfortunately, even more restrictive.
Through this podcast, we’ll celebrate what we believe is one of nature’s greatest--though often misunderstood--gifts. We’ll conduct integration sessions, with subjects explaining their own mystical experiences. We’ll also delve into mushrooms with medicinal and culinary applications in regular segments from the uber-smart and charming Wifey Jill.
