Part 1 Entangled Life by Merlin Sheldrake Summary"Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds & Shape Our Futures" by Merlin Sheldrake is an exploration of the fascinating and complex world of fungi, highlighting their vital role in ecosystems and their impact on life on Earth. Here are the key points and themes from the book:Fungi as Fundamental Organisms: Sheldrake emphasizes that fungi are not just decomposers; they are central to many ecological processes. They form symbiotic relationships with plants, animals, and other organisms, contributing to nutrient cycling and ecosystem health.Mycelium Networks: The book introduces readers to mycelium, the vast underground networks of fungal threads that connect plants and trees, often referred to as the "Wood Wide Web". These networks allow for communication and resource sharing among plants, demonstrating an intricate web of interdependence in nature.Interactions with Life: Sheldrake explores how fungi interact with various forms of life, including humans. He discusses how certain fungi can alter consciousness and perception, particularly through psychedelic experiences, suggesting that our relationship with fungi can influence our mental and emotional states.Fungus and Climate Change: The author examines the role of fungi in responding to and potentially mitigating climate change. Fungi play a crucial role in breaking down organic matter, sequestering carbon, and promoting soil health, which are essential in the fight against climatic shifts.Fungi in Medicine and Science: Sheldrake highlights how fungi have been pivotal in medical advancements, such as the discovery of penicillin and the development of various antibiotics. He also discusses current research exploring the use of fungi in bioremediation and other innovative environmental solutions.Fungi and the Unseen World: The book delves into the concept of mycology as a lens to view unseen processes in the world. Fungi challenge human perceptions of life and death, individuality and community, suggesting a more interconnected view of existence.Philosophical Reflections: Throughout the narrative, Sheldrake weaves philosophical reflections on the nature of life, equity in ecosystems, and the need for a holistic approach to environmental issues. He calls for a deeper appreciation of fungi's roles and, by extension, a reevaluation of our relations with nature.In essence, "Entangled Life" is a celebration of fungi, revealing their hidden complexities and urging readers to recognize their profound impact on our world, encouraging a shift in perspective towards appreciating interconnectedness in nature.Part 2 Entangled Life AuthorMerlin Sheldrake is a biologist and author known for his research on fungi and their ecological roles. His widely acclaimed book, "Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds & Shape Our Futures," was released on August 20, 2020. The book explores the complex relationships between fungi and other life forms and examines their impact on ecosystems, human culture, and even our minds.In addition to "Entangled Life," Sheldrake has contributed to various scientific writings and has also co-authored works related to biology and ecology. However, "Entangled Life" stands out as his flagship book, garnering significant attention and praise for its engaging narrative and insightful exploration of mycology.As of October 2023, "Entangled Life" remains his most notable work due to its achievements, including:Winning several awards, such as the 2021 James Beard Foundation Book Award for Best Cookbook and other literary recognitions.Receiving acclaim for its accessibility and thought-provoking content, making complex scientific ideas comprehensible to a broad audience.As for editions, the initial hardcover edition is often regarded as the best due to its...

0:00 - We don't like being negative about the Nuggets! We miss feeling optimistic about them! But we don't have any reason to expect they'll be a different team in the playoffs. 15:54 - March Madness doesn't have the same allure it once did. Moser and Vic barely know anyone playing in the tournament right now, but they can name the Phi Slamma Jamma roster off the top of their heads (mostly).32:26 - We sound like a broken record, but the Avs seeding won't change. They're locked in. That's why we keep shrugging our shoulders after losses. What CAN change is their opponent. Will they face Winnipeg or Dallas?

What role do estrogen and the menstrual cycle play in the moods of women? Is ‘baby brain' a real phenomena or does the brain actually sharpen during motherhood? What are the symptoms of menopause and how natural and effective is HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy)? - Use the time stamps for those interested only in the neuroscience of Menopause (01:07:45) and Motherhood (37:00).  - NO VIDEO Episode, audio only. Today we have the important topic of women's hormones to up our awareness about. A big part of the experience we have of our bodies is thanks to hormones, also called  neurotransmitters because they help our nervous system communicate with the rest of the body about what's going on inside and outside the body. Having accompanied my partner through the process of having two children, and us both having had many unanswered questions about that; and now heading into my late forties having many female friends and listeners heading towards menopause, and speaking publicly about how they wished there'd been given more information about it as it seems not to be discussed much, even amongst women. So I felt the need to make a show about the science and experience of female hormones, particularly with regard to motherhood and menopause; in the hope that women facing these experiences and men hoping to be informed and supportive to those experiences might get more insight. If you're looking for a show about the comparison or difference between men and women, or Mars or Venus, or the battle of the sexes this is not the show for you: this is simply an informative show about the female brain and particularly about the changes that take place during motherhood and menopause. Unfortunately there is hardly any research into the neuroscience and hormones of trans people, so I apologise in advance for the fact that this show speaks only of those who are born and identify themselves as women.  We are extremely fortunate that our guest today is a neuroscientist and author who has specialised in the Female Brain, both studying the full arc of a woman's life  in her highly accessible yet detailed book “The Women's Brain Book: The neuroscience of Health, Hormones and Happiness”; and most recently in her new 2023 book “Baby Brain: The surprising science of how pregnancy and motherhood sculpt our brains and change our minds (for the better)”. She is of course Dr. Sarah McKay, an Oxford University phD in Neuroscience, whose super power is to make neuroscience simple, actionable and relevant to your everyday life. So she chose to leave her research career in favour of science communication, hoping to bridge the gap between the lab and everyday life. She's the founder of the Neuroscience Academy; has been the neuroscience correspondent for ABC in Australia and has been quoted in the Guardian, Wall Street Journal, Grazia and the Sydney Morning Herald. What we discuss: 00:00 Intro. 10:55 Menstrual cycle and estrogen neuroscience. 13:45 Brain-ovarian axis (HPO hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis). 18:45 Wrong assumption that estrogen equals negative moods in women. 24:30 PMS misconceptions - proved to affect only %10 of population. 35:00 A bio-psycho-social model - many contributing factors to mood. 37:00 MOTHERHOOD neuroscience. 48:45 Wrong assumptions about ‘baby brain' - no cognitive decline. 55:15 Wrong assumptions about post-partum attachment dynamics. 01:05:15 Post natal depression - Not only due to an estrogen drop. 01:07:45 MENOPAUSE Neuroscience. 01:17:00 Perimenopause - menstrual cycle becomes erratic. 01:27:30 Sex-drive and discomfort after menopause. 01:31:30 HRT - Hormone Replacement Therapy  01:41:45 Nuance and ‘grey areas' in a world of click bait.

Rupert Sheldrake is a biologist and author of 9 books and over 100 scientific papers. A critic of what he sees as the scientific establishment's dogmatic dedication to materialism, he is perhaps best known for his theory of “morphic resonance,” via which information and activity can be transferred across space and time. Rupert joins the show to discuss being branded a heretic, how to test for telepathy, his advice for young scientists, and MUCH more!

Winding through questions of philosophy, science, and meaning making, this week's episode brings together vital thoughts on what it means to live an embodied life in an entangled world. Guest Merlin Sheldrake shares the motivations that drew him to study fungi and the complex ways this study has shaped his life and thought. As Merlin shares, “an account of life that doesn't include fungi is an account of a living world  that doesn't exist.” Our relationship with fungi is non-negotiable. Merlin invites listeners to pay attention to what this relationship means and how it shapes not only our lives, but the entanglement of life across the world. With this, Merlin also shares the ways fungal life offers a diversity of expressions and possibilities – offering up the perspective that the diversity and complexity of relationship and expression is what makes life fertile. Across the episode, Merlin and Ayana contemplate the history and meaning of science, and come to see life as a process and a relationship. The meaning we make does not come out of a vacuum, but rather out of relationship. Life itself, in its many forms, is improvisational. Understanding this, we are left with the provocation: How might we speak to the world, rather than about it?   Merlin is a biologist and author of Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds, and Shape Our Futures, a New York Times and Sunday Times bestseller, and winner of the Royal Society Book Prize and the Wainwright Prize. Merlin is a research associate of the Vrije University Amsterdam, and works with the Society for the Protection of Underground Networks and the Fungi Foundation. A keen brewer and fermenter, he is fascinated by the relationships that arise between humans and more-than-human organisms. (merlinsheldrake.com)Music by Matthewdavid.

They're not a plant or an animal — fungi are their very own kingdom of life. And their unique composition means they offer novel, often unbelievable, benefits to our health. Certain species of fungi are currently used to treat conditions ranging from cancer to depression. The love of mushrooms (or mycophilia) has grown in recent years. And at the heart of this movement is biologist Dr. Merlin Sheldrake, author of the bestseller Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds and Shape Our Futures. In today's episode of ZOE Science & Nutrition, Jonathan, Merlin, and ZOE Co-Founder Prof. Tim Spector ask: Why are mushrooms so special?If you want to uncover the right foods for your body, head to zoe.com/podcast, and get 10% off your personalized nutrition program.Download our FREE guide — Top 10 Tips to Live Healthier: https://zoe.com/freeguide Follow ZOE on Instagram.Timecodes:00:00 - Introduction 1:42 - Quickfire round3:04 - What are fungi?8:40 - The connection between fungi, plants & gut health14:10 - The human impact on fungi19:41 - Mushrooms and mental health 28:01 - Fungi as medicine35:34 - Why should we eat mushrooms40:39 - How to introduce more mushrooms into your diet46:56 - How often should you eat mushrooms51:17 - Summary56:01 - OutroMentioned in today's episode: Potential role of ergothioneine rich mushroom as anti-aging candidate through elimination of neuronal senescent cells from Brain ResearchMedicinal mushrooms in adjuvant cancer therapies: An approach to anticancer effects and presumed mechanisms of action from NutrireImmunomodulatory effect of mushrooms and their bioactive compounds in cancer: A comprehensive review from Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy Episode transcripts are available here.Is there a nutrition topic you'd like us to explore?

Ireland wasn't ready for the economic success we have experienced over the past 40 years. However, with success comes more social responsibility that the Irish government hasn't been able to meet. We weren't ready for the combination of a population boom, multinational investment, income to rise, and housing demand to increase as a result. We are now at an inflection point. We have no choice but to reframe our society and how we look at housing, the other option is social chaos. Join the gang! https://plus.acast.com/s/the-david-mcwilliams-podcast. Hosted on Acast.

This Saturday – 7 October – is UK Fungus Day. And so for this week's show, we're exploring the fascinating faces of fungi. We're taking a tour of the Fungus Garden at RHS Wisley, journeying back in time with biologist Merlin Sheldrake to investigate our historical uses of these organisms, chatting about 3 easy ways you can grow your own edible mushrooms, and finally, we're returning to Wisley to get an update on the science team's honey fungus research.  The music you hear at the very beginning of the show was created by Cosmo Sheldrake. The sounds you hear -- apart from the accompanying piano -- are from recordings of oyster mushrooms devouring a copy of Merlin Sheldrake's Entangled Life. You can listen to the entire song here.

Back together again (in person) Andrew and Jakob are putting their money where their mouths are and are officially standing by the 6-6 prediction as a podcast. The dynamic duo also runs through a few headlines and have a really big tease! If you're listening to this and are thinking, hey, wtf is wrong with the audio, Jakob? Don't worry, we are too. We spent some money on new mics, still figuring out how to use them, At least it looks pretty huh? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Sometimes we hold our religious and moral beliefs so tightly that we cannot imagine the possibility of being wrong. When someone questions these beliefs, we feel compelled to defend them and confuse strength of conviction with dogmatic inflexibility. This stunts our spiritual growth, makes us more judgmental, and damages important relationships. In this message, Pastor Mark gives numerous examples in the New Testament and early church where followers of Jesus could not see the truth because of what they thought they already knew. What is required to get unstuck is humility, which builds a new kind of strength that is gracious, tolerant, responsive, gentle, loving, openminded, and flexible. Empowered in this way, we can consider the possibility that we may be wrong, and when we are admit the mistake and move in a different direction. Like the blind man in Luke 18:35-42, pray, "Lord I want to see!"This is message 4 of 4 in the Grown-Up Prayers series.Recommended Reading: Peter Enns, "The Sin of Certainty: Why God Desires Our Trust More Than Our 'Correct' Beliefs."If this message is a blessing, you can support our ministries by donating at www.fumccb.com.  Speaker: Pastor Mark Reynolds Venue: First United Methodist Church (Cocoa Beach, FL) Connect with Pastor Mark:www.revmarkreynolds.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PastorMarkReynolds 

Around 85% of women will become a mother and most agree that pregnancy and parenthood are experiences that profoundly change us physically, psychologically, socially and spiritually. Sadly though, mothers, minds and brains are mostly absent from popular pregnancy books and social media posts unless of course there is a discussion about what can go terribly wrong: baby blues, postnatal depression and of course the dreaded baby brain. Today, Dr. Sarah joins Cass to chat about the upside of pregnancy and parenting on your brain. And research is very clear... Having a baby improves a mother's memory. It makes her smarter, more empathetic, intuitive, and socially savvy.  Dr. Sarah McKay is an Oxford University educated neuroscientist. She is one of Australia's most well-known brain science commentators and authors. She wrote The Neuroscience of Health, Hormones and Happiness, and recently she has turned her attention to baby brain. Her latest book is called Baby Brain, the Surprising Neuroscience of How Pregnancy and Motherhood Sculpt Our Brains and Change Our Minds for the Better. In this episode we explore: the amazing neurological shifts that happen when we care for babies how mental load and emotional labor of motherhood can impact attention and memory abilities the importance of considering women's health in medical research and the surge of interest in the neurobiology of pregnancy and menopause.  You can get yourself a copy of Dr Sarah McKay's books here.

Biologist and author Merlin Sheldrake (of 'Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds and Shape Our Futures') is joined by the science journalist Jo Marchant (of 'Human Cosmos' and 'Cure') and presenter Harriett Gilbert. Merlin picks 'The Age of Wonder' by Richard Holmes, a biographical portrait of scientific innovators in the late 18th century. In this historical book. Holmes explores the scientific ferment that swept across Britain, and how it became an age of great discovery. Jo's choice, 'You Are Not a Gadget: A Manifesto', is by computer scientist and virtual reality pioneer Jaron Lanier. In this prescient book from 2010, Jaron delves into the digital world, examining what went wrong in its development, and how we might fix these problems. And Harriett recommends the classic, magical children's novel, 'The Sword In The Stone' by T. H. White, which she argues merits re-reading as an adult. Produced by Eliza Lomas for BBC Audio, Bristol.

But not all SLC residents are convinced we need a do-over of the ‘02 games — including host Ali Vallarta. Catherine Raney-Norman, a four-time Olympian and chair of the Salt Lake City-Utah Committee for the Games, makes her case for bringing the Olympic dream back to our city.

Psst! Mushroom leather is not actually made from mushrooms – but it is fabulous! Much Like our guest this week. Merlin Sheldrake is the biologist and author of the extraordinary book, Entangled Life, How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds & Shape Our Futures. You might not give fungi much thought, but mycelium networks are working their wonders all around us. And we need them! Together with bacteria, fungi are responsible for breaking down organic matter and releasing carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus into the soil and atmosphere. Without fungi, nothing would decay. We partner up with fungi to make some of the foods and drinks we love the most (hello, bread and beer). And fungi is also causing quite the buzz in fashion, thanks to the invention of new leather-like materials and plastic alternatives derived from mycelium. Forward-thinking designers from Iris Van Herpen to Stella McCartney have been inspired by fungi's wonderful properties and intriguing life.Prepare to be wowed by this enlightening conversation that might just change the way you think about everything around you.

Does a full moon really bring out craziness in people? Does it cause more car accidents and hospital admissions? This episode begins with a look at whether or not the moon really affects human behavior – or at least why so many people believe it does. http://newsroom.ucla.edu/releases/stop-blaming-the-moon-says-ucla-scientist Being happy is a big goal for almost everyone. And finding it is often a struggle. Joining me with some insight and science regarding how we can all be happier is Tim Bono, a lecturer at Washington University in St. Louis where he teaches courses on the Science of Happiness and author of the book Happiness 101: Simple Secrets to Smart Living & Well-Being (https://amzn.to/3cPVgY3). Every child is told a million times to “stop fidgeting!” However, in some cases fidgeting may be the perfect thing to do. Listen as I discuss how fidgeting can help learn better and improve cognitive performance, despite what your grandmother told you. http://www.inc.com/thompson-wall/how-fidgeting-at-work-can-promote-creative-thinking.html You might not think that mushrooms would make a good topic for this podcast. However it turns out that mushrooms and all fungi are absolutely fascinating. If we didn't have fungus – life would be very different. Biologist Merlin Sheldrake has studied the world of fungus and you are about to discover things about the mushrooms you eat and all other fungi that will amaze you. Merlin is the author of the book Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds & Shape Our Futures (https://amzn.to/2Xfdb3F) PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!
