Podcasts about Fungus

This episode begins a journey to investigate the reality behind online noise, including debates like ambient yeast vs. cultured yeast and claims about glyphosate. In true Wine 101 style, we start with history for context, then dive into chemistry and data. We start with the history of humans' interaction with a single-celled organism and grape juice.

Episode 551 Nick the Rat Radio gets weird fast — Nick recaps meeting Lavish from Behind the Schemes IRL (and scoring a coveted Casio GBX-100), then spirals through a grab bag of chaos: Einstein's double-cousin wife, a fake(?) Perez Hilton meltdown, a tragic NYC e-bike death nobody's explaining properly, and an AI job interview where Nick trash-talks his old boss to a robot. Add in Hank Green's AI research controversy, Eli Roth's AI-assisted flop, and a rescue-dog-turned-meat-market story out of China, and things only get stranger from there. Then the show goes full body-horror: drug-resistant Candida auris, face-dwelling Demodex mites with no anus, flock camera laser hacks, and a truly unhinged caller segment about K9 steak sauce and pubic hair salons. Nick closes out with NYC's new government grocery stores, the Kalshi gambling lawsuit, RFK's $5 seafood cooking show, and a brewery that lost its liquor license over a "free beer if Trump dies" promo. It's a laidback news night that somehow ends up being the grossest episode in show history — value-for-value, no filter, straight from the sewer. #NickTheRatRadio #DarkSewerNetwork #Podcast #ConspiracyPodcast #WeirdNews #PodcastClips #AInews #CandidaAuris #NYCnews #TwitchPodcast #ValueForValue #SewerRat #StrangeButTrue #LateNightPodcast #NoAgendaTribute #sewerchat A paranoid rat discusses conspiracies, secret agendas, and things they don't want you to know — while playing hand-picked underground music.

We all see toadstools and mushrooms and fungi in autumn and winter (and beyond). It was just six weeks ago that we trumpeted the amazing contestants for the “Fungus of the Year”. But gardeners, nature nerds, and kids often find these wonderfully weirdly shaped miniature soccer balls lying on the forest floor – white with light-brown slimy structures. Basket fungi are large spherical structures that carry the spores of the fungus: it's that brown smudgy stuff on the white, rubbery polygons. Those spores smell quite putrid (try them!) and attract all kinds of flies that lap up the moisture – it's probably full of proteins and nutrients! Spores stick to their feet, and as they land in the forest on some organic debris, the fungal spores are distributed – repeating the cycle. When you see a very juvenile version (they look like creamy-white eggs, sticking half out of the ground) just grab one and cut it open! It's remarkable how the basket fungus is totally compressed, ready to hatch inside that “egg”. Main points of the story… What can we learn from this fungus? They recycle stuff – there is no waste in nature. The various flies and other insects spread the spores throughout the forest – I reckon those brown/creamy patches attract those flies. If you have some patience, you can see the flies “licking” the yummy spores up before flying away to other parts of the forest floor. I remember my Jack Russell used to find the smelly deposit and licked it himself! Nature cooperates… everybody wins in the arrangement. Nature communicates with chemical clues – the smell of the spores attracts the vectors. Want to know how to economize on transport cost by reducing the size of packages? Have a look at the basket fungus! LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Millions of people suffer with foot trouble. Some have heel pain when they first get out of bed. Others complain of flat feet or bunions. Athlete's foot is very common, though it doesn't always respond as expected to antifungal medications. Speaking of fungus, toenail fungus can be extremely stubborn. What are your feet trying to tell you about what they need? How can you keep them healthy, especially in the summertime? At The People's Pharmacy, we strive to bring you up to date, rigorously researched insights and conversations about health, medicine, wellness and health policies and health systems. While these conversations intend to offer insight and perspective, the content is provided solely for informational and educational purposes. Please consult your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medical care or treatment.

What Are Your Feet Trying to Tell You? Most everyone looks forward to summer vacation, but that special time away from the usual routine may pose challenges for your feet. Whether you are hiking in the mountains or running on the beach, you may need to pay attention to your tootsies. Time at the Beach Beach time can inspire long walks on the sand, but soft sand could really put a strain on foot muscles that aren't accustomed to it. Our expert guest, podiatrist Jane Andersen DPM, recommends wearing good running shoes for walking long distances on sand. Choosing to walk where the sand is hard-packed when the tide is low can also be helpful. Possibly the most important but easily overlooked step to protect feet at the beach is to apply sunscreen. The tops of the feet are easily overlooked, but they can burn pretty readily. And if you are planning to spend time sunbathing prone, you might even want to apply sunscreen to the bottoms of your feet. They never see the sun, and walking on sunburned soles could be quite painful. Protecting Bare Feet Another consideration at the beach is how you will get from the parking lot or boardwalk to the water. How hot is the sand? If it is hot enough to burn the soles of your feet, you might consider using water sandals. In general, going barefoot can be risky. Whether you're at the beach, at a campground, in your own backyard or even inside your home, there are potential hazards underfoot. Bits of glass shards, little pieces of wire, tiny pebbles or nails could all cause havoc if they end up embedded in a sole. Protecting your soles by wearing good flip-flops makes a lot of sense. To find a list of flip-flops that provide appropriate arch support as well as sole protection, consult apma.org. Treating Black Toenails During this episode, Joe describes a trip to the beach with a long walk. By the time he removed his shoes, his longest toe had a black toenail that was rather painful. Although the pain faded before too long, it took about a year for the dark color to disappear from the nail. Dr. Andersen suggests that it often takes at least nine months to regrow a toenail. She emphasizes that if the nail turns black due to sudden trauma (like dropping something heavy on the toe), a podiatrist should check it out. Sometimes there is a fracture under that discolored nail that requires medical attention for proper healing. What Is the Story on Flat Feet? Joe has always had flat feet. Perhaps your feet are flat, too. The condition is pretty common. If Joe gets out of a bathtub or swimming pool and leaves footprints, they are almost oval. There is very little indentation in the center. Other people with higher arches may leave footprints that are nearly C-shaped. Flat feet can benefit from arch support such as orthotic inserts for shoes. High arches can also cause trouble, especially if they are linked to a genetic condition called Charcot-Marie-Tooth. It is a nerve disorder that can also lead to muscle weakness. Consequently, people with high arches may also need podiatric care for their feet to stay comfortable and healthy. Plantar Fasciitis Is a Pain The bottoms of your feet have thick connective tissue called fascia that run from the heel to the ball of the foot. Inflammation of this tissue causes pain, typically at the heel but sometimes along the arch. Often, more supportive footgear or special orthotics can help. Getting a shoe with the correct heel drop is important. That is the difference between the height of the shoe at the heel and at the toe. A podiatrist can recommend the most appropriate heel drop for your feet. Stretching is also useful, particularly pulling the toes toward the knee or stretching the calf in a runner's stretch pose and holding for 30 seconds or so. Rolling the bottom of the foot on a frozen water bottle helps with the stretch at the same time that the cold eases the inflammation. Plantar fasciitis is common and treatable. If left untreated, it may last a long time. What Can You Do About Stinky Feet? A couple of listeners shared their experiences with smelly feet, and we asked Dr. Andersen for her opinion. Jan described using a topical erythromycin antibiotic prescription that came as a roll-on. She also got rid of all her stinky shoes and is careful to wear socks that will wick sweat away. Dr. Andersen noted that erythromycin is very effective against a bacterial infection with Corynebacterium minutissimum. This organism glows coral under ultraviolet light and can definitely raise a stink. Sophia wrote about developing smelly feet after walking around in wet shoes. She finally solved the problem by treating her feet with rubbing alcohol. Dr. Andersen agreed that rubbing alcohol could be helpful. So can soaking the feet in a strong solution of tea. Other tips include cleaning the floor of the shower stall frequently and always wearing socks that wick–not cotton, which absorbs sweat but traps the moisture. Acrylic or wool work better. Another tactic is to alternate shoes; don't wear the same shoes day after day but give them at least a day to dry out. How Should You Treat a Sprained Ankle? There has been controversy lately about the standard RICE protocol for a sprain: rest, ice, compression and elevation. Some experts now recommend warmth instead of ice and gentle motion rather than rest immediately after a sprain. Of course, the first step is to ascertain that it is really a sprain and not a fracture. The treatment for those two injuries is completely different and the person suffering the problem may not be able to tell just from the way it feels. An X-ray is prudent. Bunions and Hammer Toes If you don't suffer from bunions, you might not know what they are. In a bunion, the bone that supports the big toe (the metatarsal) moves out of alignment and starts to point more towards the midline of the body. To compensate, the rest of the big toe ends up pointing back toward the rest of the foot. This creates a bump on the edge of the foot that might be painful. There doesn't seem to be any clear correlation between the size of the bump and the amount of pain it causes. Bunions seem to be hereditary, at least to some extent. Conservative management entails choosing footwear with a roomy toe box, not pointy-toed shoes. Podiatrists also correct bunions surgically. They can choose from a wide range of surgical approaches. In hammer toes, one of the toes (typically the second toe) curls over so that the end that would normally face forward points downward. This too can be corrected surgically, but the recovery can be pretty lengthy. A roomy toe box is also a good bet for living with hammer toe. Taking Care of Your Feet We asked Dr. Andersen for general advice, and she suggested that one very important consideration is to buy your athletic shoes in person, preferably at a store that caters to athletes. Buy the proper shoes for your activity; in other words, don't try to play pickleball in running shoes. One nationwide chain that does a good job fitting the shoe to the athlete is Fleet Feet. Locally, she recommends Bull City Running. This Week’s Guest Dr. Jane Andersen, Board Certified, American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery, is in practice at Chapel Hill Foot and Ankle, part of FASMA, Foot and Ankle specialists of the Mid Atlantic, in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Dr. Andersen specializes in Foot and ankle care for Children, Adults, Athletes and Geriatric Patients including surgery and conservative care. She is a Trustee of the American Podiatric Medical Association. January 18, 2025, Jane Andersen, DPM, was awarded the Edwin B. Martin, Jr., Award for Podiatrist of the Year. https://www.chapelhillfootandankle.com/dr-jane-andersen Jane Andersen, DPM, Chapel HIll Foot and Ankle Listen to the Podcast The podcast of this program will be available Monday, August 3, 2026, after broadcast on Aug. 1.

Sometimes the internet gives us a story so unbelievably disgusting that it hijacks an entire morning. This episode begins with one of those moments after a viral video shows a cruise passenger scraping fungus off her foot with a buffet fork... while other people are trying to eat. Naturally, the crew debates hygiene, cruise ships, humanity, and whether Earth deserves another season.From there the chaos keeps rolling.The gang talks about Missouri becoming the filming home for the upcoming Smoking the Bandit prequel series and wonders which cast member has the best chance of sneaking into the production. Then it's time for celebrity gossip, Comic-Con announcements, Green Day surprises, Ryan Gosling officially becoming Ghost Rider, Rick Moranis making his long-awaited return to Spaceballs, and Ryan Reynolds finding new ways to troll absolutely everyone.David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar somehow become the center of another classic rock debate, complete with cocktail analysis, tour cancellations, residency talk, and the eternal question: is extending an olive branch still an olive branch if you're holding a martini?The crew also breaks down Tom Holland's unforgettable Hot Ones appearance, Usher's awkward on-stage rejection, Chris Brown controversy, movie leaks, Marvel news, and enough pop culture commentary to keep your group chat busy all week.Of course, no episode would be complete without Crap on Celebrities, birthday nonsense, ridiculous observations, sarcastic debates, and the kind of off-the-rails conversations that somehow make perfect sense before 10 AM.If you love comedy podcasts, weird news, celebrity gossip, St. Louis humor, hilarious fails, entertainment commentary, and friends arguing about things nobody else would spend thirty minutes discussing, you've found your people.Grab your coffee.Maybe skip breakfast during the fungus conversation.And definitely leave the buffet forks where they belong.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshowConnect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Have you heard of Nostoc? It's scientific name, Nostoc commune, sounds like a chat between Trump and Putin but it's actually a living organism that troubles more than a few Kiwis on their quarter acre paradise. Brown-green “gorilla snot” is another name, star jelly, witch's butter, and mare's eggs... But most folk call it brown, slimy scum. It's a colony of cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) that form dense gelatinous mats of slimy and leathery bits and pieces on driveways, gravel, and bare soil. It is usually terrestrial but can also be aquatic (such as in wet paddy fields). The trouble with this stuff is its persistence and difficulty to control. It reproduces by binary fission, meaning each cell simply splits in two when conditions are suitable. Gardeners often complain that it thrives on Roundup weedkiller, and most other weedkillers for that matter (I doubt that, by the way!!). Chlorine and salt don't work, and bleach simply runs off the rubbery squishy invader. Copper sulphate and sodium hypochloride are also ineffective. On the various online “help me” websites (hilarious to read, by the way) people state that some Benzalkonium chloride (a quaternary ammonium compound often used as an algaecide) may be the answer. Why is it so difficult? Nostoc occurs anywhere from the tropics to the dry valleys in Antarctica – an impressive range of climatological conditions. In summer it dries out to a crispy, brown material, while in winter it's lush, soft, and spongy, and blueish green or olive green. It's particularly good at coping with water stress. A colleague once did some experiments showing that it could lose more than 70% of its weight in water before cell metabolism was affected – hence its success on driveway shingles. It grows on alkaline soils in the tropics and doesn't care about brackish water either. It's resistant to heat as well as continuous freezing/thawing cycles and it produces no oxygen when it's dormant. Despite the fact it hasn't got Chloroplasts, it can fix Nitrogen from the atmosphere. Nostoc is eaten in Asia, but it's not recommended (there have been some suggestions of toxicity). Having said that, some varieties (such as Nostoc commune var. sphaeroides) may be beneficial by means of an anti-inflammatory mechanism. So… how do we control it on our driveways? Good question!

We talk through what symptoms can look like, why experts are concerned about the fungus moving north, and how transmission differs from the usual “inhaled spores” narrative. We also cover the practical risk points for shelters, vet clinics, and rescue groups, including how long it can survive on surfaces and what disinfectants are effective when cleaning is done right.Then we shift to FIP, feline infectious peritonitis, the diagnosis Bricks most likely has, even though his case is atypical. We explain how common feline coronavirus is, why cats don't “catch FIP” directly from each other, and why wet FIP and dry FIP can look so different. Most importantly, we talk about the modern turning point: antiviral treatment like GS-441524, what monitoring looks like during recovery, and why starting early can move survival odds dramatically.If you care about cat health, emerging zoonotic disease, and the newest breakthroughs in veterinary medicine, hit play, share this with a cat parent who needs it, and subscribe, rate, and review so more people can find the show.Support the showFor Science, Empathy, and Cuteness!Being Kind is a Superpower.All our social links are here!

A study out of Bowling Green State University found a dangerous fungus present on needles used to inject drugs.

Every Friday Nicola Toki and Jesse chat about a Critter of the Week. A creature that needs some attention! This week they turn their attention to the orange coral fungus. Coral fungi are also known as clarvarioid fungi - and really do look like coral.

Tyler Anbinder details the origins of the Great Potato Famine, noting that the destructive fungus actually originated in North America and thrived in Ireland's cool, damp climate. By 1846, 90% of the potato crop—the primary food source for half the population—was destroyed. The hardest-hit regions were in the west, where poverty was most extreme. Landowners like Lord Lansdowne facilitated emigration primarily as a financial decision to avoid the taxes required to support indigent tenants. Consequently, the strongest survivors began an arduous journey, often walking to ports before taking cheap ships from Liverpool to New York. (2)1849

Every Friday we put the spotlight on a critter that's endemic to New Zealand and endangered, Nicola Toki and Jesse discuss the creature and then rates it. We call this segment critter of the week. This week all eyes are on Te Hakeke / Wood Ear Fungus.

About 50 years ago, Dutch elm disease wiped out most of the American elm trees, but some survived. Now, scientists in Vermont are injecting these trees and saplings with the disease to identify and breed more resistant elms. They hope to bring more big American elms back to the East Coast.

Scientists with the Nature Conservancy and Forest Service have been raising American elms that are bred to be resistant to Dutch elm disease at two sites in Vermont. Now, they're injecting them with the fungus to see what happens.

The first time I heard the words "Sugar Fungus" used with horses, I thought it might be a new, and possibly harmful, reportable disease. I braced myself for the thought that another new disease was invading the world of horses, and that there may not be a cure. However, to my surprise, I learned that sugar fungus is the translation of a common yeast called Saccharomyces: Sacro meaning sugar, and myces meaning yeast (from the Greek). This yeast is generally beneficial, supporting digestive processes in both animals and humans. This yeast appears in baker's yeast, brewer's yeast, and sourdough starter. The most common species is Saccharomyces cerevisiae, widely recognized for its role in fermentation. Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is commonly added as an ingredient in commercial horse feeds. In this podcast, I discuss what it is, the common forms found in horse feeds, and the proposed benefits of adding it. I then discuss what many call "unintended consequences," or the possible downstream effects of many foods and food additives. I describe the Polyol Pathway (aka the Sorbitol Pathway) and how yeasts are known triggers, along with high-glycemic foods, such as grains. The overall effect of adding yeasts to grains may be an increase in fructose production, leading to aggressive behavior, increased body fat, and decreased mitochondrial efficiency. As always, none of this has been shown to occur in horses because studies have been performed only in humans and lab animals; however, most studies using Saccharomyces cerevisiae added to a grain feed to help horses with stress indicate that feeding an all-forage diet before stressful events may be just as effective.

2. The Great Hunger and the Logistics of Forced Migration The Great Famine was caused by a North Americanfungus transported via guano, which devastated Ireland's potato crop starting in 1845. Because half the population relied solely on potatoes for sustenance, the blight caused immediate, widespread starvation. On the Lansdowne estate, the Marquess decided to pay for the passage of 2,000 tenants to America. This was not an act of charity but a financial calculation to avoid local taxes meant to support the indigent. Survivors, often the most resilient members of their families, traveled through Liverpool to find the most affordable passage to New York. 21875 DUBLIN COUNTY
