It's been ten years since her last time with us, and today, we'll be discussing her most recent title Have a Good Trip: Exploring the Magic Mushroom Experience which is published by Flat Iron Books. A note, the possession and use of psilocybe mushrooms is illegal in most of the United States, including Book Talk's home state of Tennessee. A couple of states are exploring medical usage of them and several, mainly college towns, have decriminalized possession. These are the early days of scientific research, and Book Talk makes no claims on their efficacy, and strongly warns against possession and use where such is in violation of the laws of one's jurisdiction.

Eugenia Bone is a nationally known food and science writer and the author of several books, including Mycophilia, Revelations from the Weird World of Mushrooms, and Microbia, a Journey into the Unseen World Around You. Most recently, she can be seen in Fantastic Fungi, a new documentary you can see on Netflix that looks at the healing properties of mushrooms, from the medicinal to the entheogenic. She's featured alongside other greats like Michael Pollen and Paul Stamets. We highly recommend the film, and as you'll hear in this episode, Eugenia has recently edited the Fantastic Fungi Community Cookbook — which is a companion to the film. Eugenia was a real pleasure to talk to, with her lively style and excellent grasp of all things fungi, from foraging to the most recent science. From cutting edge cuisine to modern building materials, from environmental clean-up to cancer treatment and even psychotherapy, mushrooms are finally myceliating the western mind and its formerly mycophobic culture. So here's to mycophilia, the antidote to the anti-mushroom sentiment of bygone days. The future is bright, if not partially decomposing and covered in spores.

On Jan 2, 2020 Shelly and Paul Gordon(mushroom farmer)took a field trip to the magical Lynx Run Wilderness Retreat in Big Rapids Michigan. We got stuck in the driveway immediately but it was worth it because the nerding out on all things mushrooms was non stop. Our lovely host, artist/forager Rob Vanderzee shoved the car out with his jeep so we could get right to a lovely walk in the forest and a great meal of black eyed peas, collard greens, and cornbread. We were so lucky to have Myc O'Phile(human mushroom encyclopedia)with us too! If you are a forager, YOU GET IT. If not, there is SO MUCH FUN STUFF TO LEARN about fungi! Eugenia Bone shares her journey from just wanting cheaper morels to becoming a full on MYCOPHILE. If you've never explored the magical world of mushrooms, this is where you start! I also made, well STOLE from Myc O Phile a great mushroom themed playlist. Enjoy! Join the mushroom people. Their is way more fungi in the world than people so it just makes strategic sense.

What should the future of agriculture look like? What if instead of focusing on growing food to feed our cities, we pivoted to growing food within our cities? This seemingly revolutionary concept is the inspiration behind a growing number of urban farms across the country. To learn more about the power and possibilities presented by growing food in a modern American city, we sat down with Yemi Amu, founder of Oko Farms in Brooklyn. In our thought-provoking conversation we cover: Why aquaponics is such a revolutionary, yet surprisingly ancient, way to grow food. How urban farms like Oko help increase food security, mitigate climate change, increase biodiversity, and even reduce stormwater runoff. Why Yemi uses the term "food swamp" instead of "food desert." What's stopping urban farming from making the jump from a niche concept to a truly viable way of feeding more communities in America. Get ready to dive into the weeds of sustainable farming and urban gardening, quite literally! Episode Show Notes:You can learn more about Yemi's work at the Oko Farm website and Instagram. Some other notable urban farmers that came up in our conversation include Will Allen of Growing Power and Leah Penniman of Soul Fire Farm. Yemi recommends reading "Microbia: A journey into the unseen world around you" by Eugenia Bone. Yemi is an fan of Yute, and underrated vegetable. Yemi's go-to karaoke song is Pretty Young Thing by the one and only Michael Jackson.

By Theodora Lau and Bradley Leimer of Unconventional Ventures How does our work within financial services and fintech all fit together? Are why we do what we do, and how we do it, really important in the broader purview? The short answer provides much positive affirmation. Our efforts to make banking better — by making it more inclusive, more cohesive, and more comprehensive — matters a great deal. Each iteration of the model builds upon each other and benefits humanity as it strengthens our communities. The longer answer to how does it all fit together is more convoluted, but perhaps more satisfying in the end. Everything in life is a series of connected systems, both big and small. While we all make personal connections during our lifetimes, the truth is that we are all connected in ways often both unseen and unforeseen. Everything we see, everything we feel, everything that will be — it comes from something created before us. Our communities are like this too, connected by the individuals, families, and small businesses and business models that have built up our society, our economic systems, our values, and our beliefs — all across the connected expanse of time. Life has always been much more than any one of us. Timeless connections With so many of us struggling for connection, inspiration, and hope, these are three stories we would like to share about how our lives and our planet are more interwoven than we imagine, and why it matters that everything is connected to everything else. The first comes from the recent documentary Fantastic Fungi, directed by Louie Schwartzberg. This film brings us face-to-face with the smallest of organisms as interconnected creators of our world, and is an immersive journey through time and scale into the earth beneath our feet. For every step on the earth, there are more than 300 miles of mycelium across every spot throughout the globe. This world — which entails so much more than the mushrooms we often find on our plate — is an incomprehensible underground network that demonstrates how even the smallest organisms touch absolutely everything from life to death. Across this internet-like thread of connectivity, they play an instrumental role in helping organisms communicate and nourish each other. Through the eyes of renowned scientists and mycologists like Paul Stamets, best-selling authors Michael Pollan, Eugenia Bone, Andrew Weil and others, we become aware of the beauty, intelligence, and solutions this fungi kingdom offers us in response to some of our most pressing challenges. It offers hope for how we can work together in greater harmony. The second takes us from the forest floor to its canopy. The book The Hidden Life of Trees by Peter Wohlleben, is a love story of the forests told through the trees that create these interconnected networks of timeless life. As he documents this moving cycle of life, death, and regeneration, he explains how much humanity can learn (as Walt Whitman did) about the role forests can play in making our world a better place to live. Much like humans, trees have parents that protect their children, support them as they grow, and share nutrients with those in their community who are struggling. Like our broader communities, trees and forests create ecosystems that mitigate the impact of threats for the entire group. Wohlleben discusses the science behind the hidden life of trees and their communication occurring through their roots and their compatriots, the ever-present mycelium. When we consume the ideals of the smallest organisms to the largest, the lessons they offer help us think about the ways we develop and sustain interconnected communities where we retain often hidden interdependence. The third is from the BBC series Connections (and the related book), the late 1970’s television series created by science historian James Burke, which took an interdisciplinary approach to the history of science and invention, and demonst...

We are joined now by the acclaimed filmmaker and cinematographer, Louie Schwartzberg. He is the creator of what critics have described as a “mind-blowing,” and “consciousness-shifting” film called Fantastic Fungi. Produced by Schwartzberg's innovative Moving Art production company, the documentary explores the surprisingly key role that fungi -- a.k.a. mushrooms -- have played in the earth’s evolution, and the hope they present for securing the earth’s future. The film features renowned scientists and mycologists such as Paul Stamets, and bestselling authors and healing advocates such as Michael Pollan, Eugenia Bone and Andrew Weil, whose narratives guide us through the extraordinary complexity, beauty and importance of the fungi kingdom, and the solutions it might offer for humanity's most urgent medical, nutritional an environmental challenges. Schwartzberg's 81-minute film is now available for online rental from a variety of participating theaters around the country. Fantastic Fungi will aqlso become available on Apple TV on Tuesday, August 4 -- the same day that Schwartzberg launches his new podcast, called Wonder & Awe. Before that, on Sunday, August 2, Schwartzberg will be the Keynote speaker at the Logan Visionary Virtual Eco-Conference, presented by the American Visionary Art Museum.

“The candy cap was a revelation to me: redolent with the smell of maple, marvelously silky and spongy in texture, earth and meaty and sweet. When you eat a candy cap, your skin smells like maple sugar. When you exercise after eating a candy cap, your sweat smells like maple sugar. When you make love after eating a candy cap . . . well, I leave that to your imagination, but . . . yes.” ― Eugenia Bone, Mycophilia: Revelations from the Weird World of MushroomsSCRYFALL.COM Random Magic Card Generator | Random Word GeneratorEmail the podcast at: podcast.hooked@gmail.comSubscribe to us on ITUNES, STITCHER, SPOTIFY, RADIOPUBLIC or your podcatcher of choice.Find us on FACEBOOK, TWITTER or INSTAGRAM.HOOKED PODCAST IS PRODUCED UNDER A CREATIVE COMMONS ATTRIBUTION-NONCOMMERCIAL-NODERIVATIVES 4.0 INTERNATIONAL LICENSE - CC BY-NC-ND 4.0This means that you are free to share and redistribute the material in any medium or format if you give appropriate credit, do not use the material for commercial purposes and do not remix, transform, or build upon the material in any way.

The search for the ‘self' has always been difficult. We spend our lives trying to find ourselves, to discover who we are inside. Noted psychiatrist, Sigmund Freud, had us narrowed down into three categories: the Id, the Ego, and the Superego. Descartes believed that “I think, therefore I am”. But as our concept of the human mind and body continues to change, there is a new way to look at who we really are (at least biologically). That is; we are 99.5% bacteria, and only 0.5% human DNA. Welcome to The Shift, an investigative series that follows naturopath, nutritionist and author Katherine Maslen as she explores the dysfunctional nature of the health industry and provides people with the tools, knowledge and understanding to make the shift in their lives. Each episode of The Shift features interviews with industry experts in gut and general health from across the globe. They accompany Katherine in tackling the difficult questions surrounding global health. If you want to make the shift towards more informed decisions regarding better health, then this podcast is for you. In episode #11 of The Shift, are you bacteria, or human? Part 2. Katherine takes us on a journey behind our own curtains, to uncover more about what we're made of, joined by experts Dr Marvin Singh, Kale Brock, Eugenia Bone, Rodney Dietert, Dr Leo Galland, Dr David Perlmutter, Jenny Tschiesche and Dr William Davis. Katherine and her guests put their professional knowledge forth to explain more about our microbial makeup, and how that makeup responds to and communicates with the rest of our body. They also discuss the following: Different kinds of bacteria that can be found within the human body Why the microbiome is one of the most important parts of our body How much of our microbiome and overall health is influenced by our environment? What microbiology actually is The various aspects of our lives, such as nutrition, exercise and behaviour, that are mediated by the microbiome Can you change your microbiome using just your thoughts?

Nature and food author, Eugenia Bone and Dr. Gundry talk about the importances of microbes (aka gut bugs) in this episode. Microbiology is the new frontier in human health, agriculture, and environmental science, for starters. It is the science of life, and yet most people don’t have the chops to understand what is being discovered and reported on. Fifty percent of the world is microbial, which means if we don’t have a little microbiology under our belts, we can’t understand half of ourselves.WATCH THE INTERVIEW ON YOUTUBE HEREBone’s work has appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and Food & Wine among other publications.

Microbes are life forms that are too small to see without a microscope. There are microbes in the soil, in the atmosphere, and even inside every one of us. How do these microbes live? How do they behave? What are they doing inside each and every person and do they affect the person as a whole? Author Eugenia Bone joins Pedram on The Urban Monk to discuss the fascinating micro-world.

Eugenia Bone became fascinated with microbes--those life forms that are too small to see without a microscope. Specifically, she wanted to understand the microbes that lived inside other organisms like plants and people. This popular science book takes the layman on a broad survey of the role of microbes in nature and illustrates their importance to the existence of everything: atmosphere, soil, plants, and us.

After years of being a renowned culinary expert, Eugenia Bone threw herself into the intense world of microbial science to write her latest book, Microbia: A Journey into the Unseen World Around You. She went back to college at age 55, and embraced the challenge of being an old student with unfamiliar material. It was, she said, a profound lesson in humility. On this episode of Speaking Broadly, Bone shares how rewarding her journey has been as she struggled to learn the role of these invisible organisms. Bone explains how microbes awakened her understanding of the universe's connectedness, a new appreciation of gut flora, and shares some astonishing facts like this one: when you spend time with someone your microbial debris clouds will morph and connect like a Venn diagram that defines friendship and family. Speaking Broadly is powered by Simplecast

As soon as you come into the world, you are met with bacteria. "It's like mom's first gift, you know?” says Colorado author Eugenia Bone, who at 55 went back to college to study microbes. Bone spoke with Colorado Matters host Ryan Warner in front of an audience -- and all their microbes -- at The Newman Center in Denver. Also, internal disciplinary records obtained by CPR News show engineers have made dozens of serious mistakes in the last two years.

Food Talk with Mike Colameco is brought to you by the following generous underwriters: This week on Food Talk with Michael Colameco, host Mike Colameco welcomes Ariane Daguin of D’Artagnan and Eugenia Bone, author of “The Kitchen Ecosystem.” Ariane tells Mike her thinking behind starting D’Artagnan. Since 1985, D’Artagnan has been dedicated to putting the finest meats, mushrooms and truffles on the tables of American gastronomes and was really one of the first of its kind to introduce high end ingredients to the masses. Mike and Ariane reminisce on the New York scene at D’Artagnan’s start and also chat about what’s on the horizon for the iconic food purveyor. After the break, Mike chats with author Eugenia Bone about the New York Mycological Society’s upcoming banquet. Along with her are Neil Redding and Chef Ben Walmer, who will be responsible for some of the cooking at the society’s annual banquet. Talking all about cooking with quality mushrooms, Mike gets a preview of delicious dishes to be served at the banquet plus other interesting things that the New York Mycological Society does throughout the year. “There are two ways of doing free range: the cheap way of doing it in quantity and the right way. We think about that constantly at D’Artagnan. We want to grow but don’t want to compromise anything.” [25:00] —Ariane Daguin on Food Talk

This week on Eat Your Words, host Cathy Erway is talking leftovers! Welcoming guest Eugenia Bone, author of the recently released book “The Kitchen Ecosystem: Integrating Recipes to Create Delicious Meals,” Eugenia chats about great ways to reuse ingredients that you might otherwise discard. “The Kitchen Ecosystem” says that the secret to great meals is this: the more you cook, the less you actually have to do to produce a delicious meal. The trick is to approach cooking as a continuum, where each meal draws on elements from a previous one and provides the building blocks for another. Eugenia shares with Cathy that synchronicity is what defines a kitchen ecosystem and talks about what has inspired her to write with this unique and thrifty perspective. This program was brought to you by Cain Vineyard & Winery. “Prior to World War II everybody cooked this way because the food they had was fresh… after, we had the onset of the industrial food revolution and as a result people started to buy products in the store.” [3:25] “This approach to cooking is based on what you eat over the course of a year.” [9:45] “Theres no way there’s a factory producing canned tomatoes that’s going to be cleaner than your kitchen.” [10:45] —Eugenia Bone on Eat Your Words

On this week’s episode of Sharp & Hot host Emily Peterson has a studio full of incredible guests! First, we hear from Eugenia Bone, accomplished food writer and author. Her stories have appeared in newspapers and magazines across the country, from The New York Times Magazine to The National Lampoon, in Saveur, Food & Wine,Gourmet, Fine Cooking, The Wine Enthusiast, and Martha Stewart Living, among many others. Later on, we hear from Smriti Keshari & Carl Banks who were involved in the production of the new documentary Food Chains! This program was brought to you by Cain Vineyard & Winery. “The variety and attributes of mushrooms are totally underestimated.” [05:00] –Eugenia Bone on Sharp & Hot

Kicking the show off with Isabelle, Mike talks about the fact that she is the first female from France to achieve the title of master of wine. She is also the author of the book, “Natural Wine,” and explains to Mike the details that set natural wine a part from others as well as highlights from the book. Next up, Eugenia Bone joins Food Talk hot off the release of her latest book, “The Kitchen Ecosystem.” “The Kitchen Ecosystem” talks about that the secret to great meals is this: the more you cook, the less you actually have to do to produce a delicious meal. The trick is to approach cooking as a continuum, where each meal draws on elements from a previous one and provides the building blocks for another. Eugenia states that synchronicity is what defines a kitchen ecosystem. In the last segment of the show, Mike Chernow and Dan Holtzman of The Meatball Shop chat with Mike about the success of their restaurants as well as their work with the homeless at Covenant House. The Covenant House is a nonprofit charity serving homeless youth with a network of shelters across the Americas. Tune in to hear how to help this great organization! “The key is to not get bogged down in the appearance of wine.” [10:37] —Isabelle Legeron, MW on Food Talk “You just have to know the mushroom just like you know the berry. You don’t go into the woods and say, oh it’s red, it’s a strawberry, I’ll eat it!” [28:35] —Eugenia Bone on Food Talk “Homelessness is a polarizing issue and people have strong feels about it.” [47:55] —Dan Holtzman on Food Talk

From the king oyster to the not-so-humble button, Dan Saladino discovers a world of mushrooms, grown for food - and follows the spores to reveal the secrets of mycelium, hunts for the perfect mushroom sandwich, and finds that there is one species in particular that dominates the supermarkets and our kitchens.With more types of cultivated mushroom available in the UK now than there has ever been, Dan hears about Korean mushrooms grown in jars, visits Europe's biggest mushroom farm, and tracks down the biggest global company in the ultra-specialised world of spawn production. Dan also encounters a photographer whose street-food mushroom project inspired him to create a new type of imagery - the 'fungi luminogram', gets insights from Eugenia Bone - author of 'Mycophilia' - and Paul Stamets, legendary mycologist and advocate of mycelium. There will also be plenty of butter and garlic.Presenter: Dan Saladino Producer: Rich Ward.

Eugenia recaps a recent foraging expedition that resulted in a huge haul of morels! How do forest fires affect morel growth? What are the best ways to clean and prepare morels? Later in the program, Mike is joined by Mike and Amy Mills of the famed 17th Street Bar & Grill, and pitmaster at the Skylight Inn, Sam Jones. Mike, Amy, and Sam are in town for the annual Big Apple Barbecue Block Party; tune in to learn about the event’s history, and how the pit masters display their regional pride through their barbecue. Learn about the time and care involved with the art of smoking and grilling! “If you substitute mushrooms for meat in your recipes, you lose weight… The proteins in mushrooms – they fill you up like you’re eating a burger, but without all of the calories.” [15:15] — Eugenia Bone on Food Talk with Mike Colameco “Barbecue – it’s a culture… even in competitions- if your fellow barbecuer needs something, you give it to them!” [42:00] — Mike Mills on Food Talk with Mike Colameco

If you’re out wandering the woods this weekend, you might want to keep an eye out for a ruffled mass of mushrooms stuck to the bottom of a hardwood tree. It could well be a maitake, or hen of the wood, mushroom. The fungi is delicious and has a meatier, more assertive flavor than average button mushrooms. “Their English name ‘hen of the woods’ is as such because they look a little like a slightly ruffled mother hen sitting at the base of a tree with her feathers all fluffed out,” explained Marie Viljoen, the author of the new book 66 Square Feet: A Delicious Life, One Woman, One Terrace, 92 Recipes. “So those ‘feathers’ are the part that you eat. Those are the caps of the mushroom.” Plucking the mushroom off of the base of an oak or beech is helpful for the tree, since the fungi is parasitic. For those interested in foraging for maitake, a few necessary words of caution: Never eat a mushroom you can’t identify with 100 percent certainty, and always thoroughly cook wild mushrooms. (In fact, you should probably always cook all mushrooms, regardless of the source. That’s because they’re not very digestible raw, explained Mycophilia author Eugenia Bone in a past Last Chance Foods episode.) One advantage of maitake is that you can also find them in gourmet grocery stores or at farmers markets. Viljoen pointed out that the commercially grown specimens require less work to clean. “If you buy them, they really come pretty clean because they were grown in very sterile conditions,” she said. “The store-bought mushroom is also slightly more delicate than the enormous, slightly tougher foraged version.” (Photo: Marie Viljoen/Vincent Mounier) Viljoen also quickly debunked two mushroom myths: First, you don’t have to carefully wipe mushrooms. Go ahead and wash them. “I find that if you wash them well, submerge them in slightly salty water, and then take them out and pat them super dry between really clean kitchen towels, your mushroom is just fine,” she said. Second, contrary to rumors, mushrooms are nutritious. “Maitake are quite high in potassium,” Viljoen said. “They contain niacin. They’re full of folates. They’re filled with antioxidants, so this is a mushroom you want to be eating. They’re good for you.” To break down maitake, she recommended snapping off the caps and using them as you would a regular button variety. The base, which is woodier, can be saved for low-heat drying over the course of many hours. “I tend to use the base cut up, sliced and dried,” she added. “The dried mushroom is delicious to make the base for a broth or a risotto.” Another way to use the entire mushroom is to make it into a soup, which Viljoen did and then brought into the WNYC studio to share. “The soup is very simple,” she said. “You start off with an onion base, sauté that, add the hen of the woods…. When they’re caramelized and brown, add whatever broth you prefer… and then puree the soup, and then that’s it.” Tune into the full audio above for her quick explanations for making maitake paté, as well as maitake butter. Also, check out a recipe from Viljoen’s new book for wild mushroom pizza. (Photo: Wild hen of the woods/Marie Viljoen)

Welcome to the debut episode of Food Talk with Mike Colameco on the HeritageRadioNetwork.org! Who is Mike Colameco? Mike attended the Culinary Institute of America. He has worked as a chef in numerous NYC Restaurants including such legends as “Tavern on the Green” and “Windows on the World”.

This week, Mike is joined in the studio by Eugenia Bone of the New York Mycological Society to talk mushrooms and foraging. Find out how to approach mushroom foraging, and how to avoid eating poisonous mushrooms. Tune into this program to learn more about different types of pickling, and why Eugenia is such a fan of preserving foods. Do pickled products help with digestion? How can you can tuna at home? Find out all of this and more on the first episode of Food Talk with Mike Colameco! Today’s program has been brought to you by Cento and King Arthur. “For me, canning, pickling, and preserving are ways to have good, fast food during the winter. Everything I do is based upon gluttony… What I eat a lot, I can a lot.” [14:35] — Eugenia Bone on Food Talk with Mike Colameco

We Dig Fungus! On today’s episode of We Dig Plants, Alice Marcus Krieg and Carmen Devito are joined by Eugenia Bone, author of Mycophilia. Tune into this episode to hear Eugenia talk about the similarities between fungi and animals, and the pervasiveness of fungi in our ecosystem. Learn how plants often depend on fungi for nutrients through symbiosis! How have fungal infections of food supplies caused mass hysteria in the past? Also, did you know that most plants are inhabited by fungi? Learn more about mycology on this week’s installment of We Dig Plants! This program has been brought to you by Fairway Market. “You have more in common with a mushroom than the bacteria in your own gut.” [9:35] “There are no terrestrial plants without fungi. The two have been symbiotic for as far back as archeological study.” [18:15] — Eugenia Bone on We Dig Plants

On today's THE FOOD SEEN, author Eugenia Bone shares her revelations from the weird world of mushrooms in her book, Mycophilia. You'll learn how to start foraging fungi through groups like the NY Mycological Society (of which she's President), and how to best understand and respect it's omnipresence. At an estimated 1.5 million species, fungi is second only to incests in it's number and diversity, yet only 5% have been identified. It outnumbers plants by a ratio of 6:1, makes up 25% of the Earth's biomass, and is the biggest single living organism at 2,220 acres in size, weighing over 6 tons, living in the Malheur National Forest in the Blue Mountains of Oregon. Fungi is not just a mushroom joke anymore. This program has been brought to you by Whole Foods. “Insects and fungi, in terms of diversity, are the dominant complex lifeforms.” “There's never been a plant on land that hasn't had a fungus living in it or on it.” — Eugenia Bone on THE FOOD SEEN

This week on The Food Seen Michael spoke to Nathalie Smith of Global Table and Eugenia Bone of the Denver Post's Well Preserved Blog. Nathalie explained how she turned a career in fashion (and a hunch that French ceramics were going to be all the rage) into a career in boutique housewares, and how the objects you surround yourself with define your personal style. This episode was sponsored by Acme Smoked Fish: a mainstay in NYC's culinary landscape for over 50 years.
