Welcome back to Monday morning, where Bubbles' Mushrooms reigns supreme. This week's special surprise guest host is Anthony who's never guest hosted before. We start off talking about Katie's love of tentacles (as always), gauge Anthony's viewership of the show, selling drugs, Fox News and the world of Information Technology. We remember that Renee orders peanuts on the computer, Edward teaches us about piracy, we delve back into the terrifying world of the demonic Hugga Bunch, Jac talks about being afraid of Teddy Ruxpin, Maggie got sprayed by a skunk again, Edward gives us the South Dakota hot babe report and Anthony tells us a great computer story about dead people. This week's sweet game starts with a softball - and that means Edward is hosting! We talk about triangle boobs and cannibalism and explosions. What kind of game could this be? It's video games or action movies or serial killers. See how smart we are this week only on Bubbles' Mushrooms. Email the show at bubbmush@gmail.com / Follow us on all the socials @bubbmush
Eight weeks after taking up her post as DEFRA Secretary of State, Emma Reynolds has faced her first barrage of questions from the cross-party group of MPs at the EFRA select committee. MPs quizzed her about farming profitability, fishing policy, water pollution, border controls and illegal meat. They asked about environmental payments too and she acknowledged that mistakes had been made and lessons learned when the Sustainable Farming Incentive was suddenly suspended earlier this year.A report by the House of Commons' Welsh Affairs Committee is calling for the Government's inheritance tax on farmers to be halted, because it says the tax will have a detrimental impact on Welsh farming.The Environment Agency's warned that unless we see some serious rain, England will be in drought next year. We find out how this year's lack of water has affected the potato harvest.Mushroom growers face many challenges: rising energy costs; sourcing the staff to pick them; and finding alternatives to peat for growing the crop. We visit a family farm in Northern Ireland that's become one of the UK's biggest producers of organic mushrooms. Truffle cultivation isn't usually associated with Scotland but milder, wetter summers are providing new opportunities, according to one professor who's developing new methods of cultivating truffles.This year's apple harvest has been a bumper one, but with a small orchard on a small landmass, the family producing cider on Guernsey have had to find a creative way to supplement their crop.Presenter = Charlotte Smith Producer = Rebecca Rooney

We hear warnings that unless we see some serious rain, England will be in drought next year. The Environment Agency says there will be widespread impacts on farming as well as nature and describes the current situation as 'precarious'. COP 30, the annual world meeting on tackling climate change is underway in Brazil. This one is notable perhaps for the leaders who've skipped it, neither the Chinese or American presidents are attending, but plenty of farmers are.All this week we are looking at growing mushrooms. We hear from a farming family in Leicestershire producing 25 tonnes of woodland mushrooms every week. Over the winter most of the sweetcorn, radishes, spring onions and chilli peppers sold by supermarkets will come from two farms in northern Senegal. The businesses involved say it's a win-win arrangement for the local communities, and more vegetables for the UK market are likely to be grown there in future.Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Beatrice Fenton.

Tiffany Hurd's path and mine crossed almost a decade prior, and it was psychedelics that brought our souls back together. She's a plant medicine facilitator, somatic healer, and guide for embodied transformation and the Microdosing Advisor and Head of Partnerships at Golden Rule Mushrooms. Tiffany has the gift of helping people meet their emotions through the body rather than the mind, turning pain into peace and tension into truth. It was such a joy to welcome her to Intimate Conversations for a deep, nourishing, and embodied dialogue about healing, surrender, and the intelligence of plant medicine. In this soulful and grounding conversation we explored how Tiffany went from high-achieving perfectionism and corporate burnout to awakening through her own inner wounds. She shared how chronic stress, anxiety, and over-identifying with doing led her body to shut down—and how that breaking point became a sacred initiation into soulful embodiment. We explored the power of plant medicine is as a bridge between the conscious and subconscious mind, and how it can support the revelation of where we are holding, resisting, or avoiding life itself. Tiffany shared how utilizing plant medicine as a tool isn't about performing or fixing but about feeling—allowing the medicine to show you where it's time to let go. She offered profound insights on how stored emotions live in the body as tension, numbness, or pain, and how plant medicine allows those emotions to surface safely for integration. We wholeheartedly agreed that spiritual bypassing can disguise itself as positivity or control, and how real liberation comes from feeling everything with compassion. Together we reflected on the courage it takes to slow down, soften, and listen to the body's wisdom. Tiffany reminded us that embodiment isn't about becoming perfect, but about becoming present. We completely align that the body is never the enemy—it's the doorway to freedom. This conversation is a nourishing invitation to come home to yourself through the sacred rhythm of awareness using plant medicine as a tool of homecoming. To trust that your body knows the way. To honor every tremble, sigh, and tear as a holy exhale of becoming. We had SO much fun over on After the Show on Patreon.com/AllanaPratt where more insights were revealed through the thought provoking questions I asked her… AND we danced to her favorite song!

An all party parliamentary group of MPs is launching what it calls a 'new action plan for fishing.' The group believes that the industry is being challenged by a series of problems including a declining workforce, restrictions at sea because of environmental protection and avoiding windfarms. The former fisheries minister and Cambridge MP Daniel Zeichner is writing the report. Farmers and crofters are criticising the Scottish Government over the allocation of grants for the Future Farming Investment Scheme. About 7,500 applications were submitted for the £21 million fund, but around 3,500 applications did not meet the criteria. Some farmers and politicians claim the distribution of money was "unfair". The Scottish Government says it understands some people are disappointed and says it is already reviewing the scheme.Researchers at the University of Worcester are carrying out research to find out how arthritis affects farmers and the farming industry.All week we're finding out more about growing mushrooms. We eat more than a £100 million worth in the UK every year. We visit the second-largest mushroom farm in the UK at Littleport in The Fens. It produces 160 tonnes a week, from tiny buttons, to large flat mushrooms.Presenter = Anna Hill Producer = Rebecca Rooney

Most notably, Chinese Taoist monks wrote of using it to promote calmness, as well as to enhance their meditative practices. Chinese royalty used Reishi to promote longevity and held this “mushroom of immortality,” in high esteem.Reishi was listed as the most cherished among the superior herbs, which are considered to support a long life, support healthy aging, boost qi, and make the body light [3].Real Mushrooms ensures that the Reishi products are made from the mushroom (fruiting body) and contain higher levels of the beneficial compounds beta-D-glucans and triterpenes with NO grain fillers.Shockingly, a study analyzing commercially available Reishi mushrooms supplements showed that only 5 of 19 products tested could be verified as genuine Reishi mushrooms.One way to identify the purity of our Reishi product is its dark color and bitter taste, both characteristic of true Reishi. We recommend taking two Reishi capsules a day, over a prolonged time to notice the nutritional benefits of this incredible functional mushroom.Learn more about Real MushroomsListeners of the show can save 30% OFF the first order using the code:RMFOREVER30

Of Monsters and Mushrooms, Ch. 11 (book 1 NEW) ep. 804 Weapon of Mass Distraction NOTE: This is a rewrite of book 1. Originally, 'Of Monsters and Mushrooms' was supposed to be a multi-part short story that transformed halfway through into a novel. This left the plot (and the voice acting, to be honest) lacking. We decided to go back and completely rewrite book one to fix any plot holes and bring the quality in line with the rest of the series.

Submission guidelines can be found at http://www.TallTaleTV.com ---- About Tall Tale TV ---- Hi there! My name is Chris Herron and I'm an audiobook narrator. In 2015, I suffered from poor Type 1 diabetes control which lead me to become legally blind for almost a year. The doctors didn't give me much hope, predicting an 80% chance that I would never see again. But I refused to give up and changed my lifestyle drastically. Through sheer willpower (and an amazing eye surgeon) I beat the odds and regained my vision. During that difficult time, I couldn't read or write, which was devastating as they had always been a source of comfort for me since childhood. However, my wife took me to the local library where she read out the titles of audiobooks to me. I selected some of my favorite books, such as the Disc World series, Name of the Wind, Harry Potter, and more, and the audiobooks brought these stories to life in a way I had never experienced before. They helped me through the darkest period of my life and I fell in love with audiobooks. Once I regained my vision, I decided to pursue a career as an audiobook narrator instead of a writer. That's why I created Tall Tale TV, to support aspiring authors in the writing communities that I had grown to love before my ordeal. My goal was to help them promote their work by providing a promotional audio short story that showcases their writing skills to readers. They say the strongest form of advertising is word of mouth, so I offer a platform for readers to share these videos and help spread the word about these talented writers. Please consider sharing these stories with your friends and family to support these amazing authors.

Many farming families are uncertain about their future in the industry, but are we on the cusp of major change with consequences for the fabric of the countryside? Professor Matt Lobley, from Exeter University, has researched the dynamics and economics of family farms for many years and he tells us that this moment feels 'different', citing the phase out of the Basic Payment System in England, rising costs, price volatility, and the hiatus in England's Sustainable Farming Incentive. He says that a period of restructuring is on the way, which will result in fewer farms. Professor Lobley believes family farms bring intangible benefits to rural communities which need to be appreciated. We look at an 'Agflation' index of farm costs which shows some increased significantly over the last year. Fertiliser costs went up 11%, for example. Others, like livestock feed, have decreased on the back of declining arable commodity prices.And, we begin a week looking at Mushroom production with a trip to a farm in County Armagh.Presenter: Caz Graham Producer: Sarah Swadling

About this Episode: In this mind-expanding conversation, Cate Stillman speaks with Benjamin Bressington, Australian entrepreneur and founder of Bare Remedy, about the renaissance of mushrooms in holistic medicine—and how ethical sourcing, spagyric extraction, and co-op innovation are changing the supplement industry. Ben shares his unconventional journey from scaling tech startups to building a mushroom farm in rural Arkansas and launching a wellness co-op that's democratizing access to potent, clean, and effective adaptogenic products. Together, Cate and Ben unpack the truth behind what's in your mushroom coffee, why most supplements don't work, and how to build a mission-driven health business that truly serves humanity. Key Takeaways: The Mushroom Awakening: Why adaptogenic mushrooms like lion's mane, cordyceps, and reishi are transforming immune, metabolic, and brain health—and what most "mushroom coffees" get wrong. Extraction Matters: Learn why spagyric extraction delivers 95–100% bioavailability compared to weak, water-based methods—and how it unlocks the full healing potential of the fruiting body. Integrity Over Hype: Ben reveals the dark side of the supplement industry—from mislabeled "organic" imports to filler-loaded formulas—and how Bare Remedy maintains uncompromised purity. Microdosing & Mental Clarity: How microdosing supports mood regulation, focus, trauma recovery, and even helps wean clients off caffeine, sugar, or pharmaceuticals—without dependency. The Co-Op Revolution: Discover how Ben turned his farm into a member-owned co-op, letting practitioners and wellness pros earn equity while sharing life-changing products with their clients.

Let's Chat!!Boo, Bitches!Okay, real talk — life got a little spore-tastic this week, and I didn't have time to record something new. But honestly? This episode on mushroom magick is worth a second harvest.
The way wild mushrooms make it to your plate defies almost every rule of the modern food system. Unlike most produce, wild mushroom cultivation isn't easily scalable, predictable, or consistently regulated. Instead, a web of small-scale, often hidden systems connects wild fungi to the commercial marketplace, including one that operates deep in the forest. Reporter Sarah Vitak embeds with mushroom foragers to understand this mysterious supply chain. Foraged some mushrooms? Consider making our Wild Mushroom Lasagna, which uses oyster, shiitake, and chanterelle mushrooms.

Host Todd Ritter flies solo in this special episode, taking listeners on a journey through the latest bourbon news and a deep dive into whiskey history. With Jim out of town, Todd kicks off the first half by tackling a massive slate of industry updates before sampling a unique experimental whiskey. He covers the Lost Lantern "Scotch Lover's" Fall 2025 collection, the nationwide expansion of Wyoming Whiskey's "Buffalo Bill Cody," Jim Beam's new Harden's Creek trio (Mushroom, Beaver, and Owl), and Jack Daniel's Distillery Series #15, a "Sweet Mash" Tennessee Whiskey. Todd also details new releases from Chicken Cock and Town Branch, Buffalo Trace's 9 millionth barrel milestone, and the bombshell news that Kirin is exploring the sale of the Four Roses distillery. The segment features a deep dive into the 2025 Buffalo Trace Antique Collection (BTAC), highlighting the new 15-year-old Colonel E.H. Taylor Bottled in Bond and a formidable 142.8-proof George T. Stagg. The first tasting of the day is the Remus Master Distiller Experimental Series Number One from MGP. This 9-year-old, 107-proof bourbon was aged in lightly charred and heavily toasted Seguin Moreau barrels made from staves seasoned outdoors for 24 months. Todd finds a big vanilla nose with a "wine funkiness," fig, and dark baking spices. The palate proves "soft and velvety" with notes of toasted marshmallow, chocolate, a hint of red wine, and a sweet, spicy finish of candied pecan and allspice. For the second half, Todd unearths a true gem for history nerds: a complete reading of a 1909 essay by none other than Colonel E.H. Taylor Jr., titled "The Rule of the Regions." Discovered in the University of Kentucky archives, the essay provides a fascinating look into the mind of the bourbon pioneer. Taylor boldly declares Kentucky bourbon superior to Scotch and Irish whiskeys, attributing this to the "Rule of the Regions"—specifically, the paramount importance of Kentucky's unique limestone water. He discusses the industry's massive (for 1909) $180 million value, the evolution from primitive wooden stills to scientific copper distillation, and the superiority of Kentucky's dry, ascending-proof aging methods. Most notably, he champions the Bottled-in-Bond Act as the ultimate guarantee of quality and authenticity, a protection he notes that Scotland and Ireland unfortunately lack. To accompany this historic reading, Todd tastes the Oaklore Story Series Number 2, an Oloroso Sherry Cask Finish 4 Grain Bourbon. Hailing from Matthews, North Carolina, this 95-proof blend of 5-to-6-year-old bourbons (70% corn, 10% rye, 10% wheat, 10% malted barley) is finished for 12-18 months in sherry casks. The whiskey shows a ruby tinge and offers a nose of raisin, wine, caramel, and vanilla. The soft palate features notes of black cherry, cocoa, sherry-driven nuttiness, and sweet dark fruits. Be sure to check out our private Facebook group, "The Bourbon Roadies" for a great group of bourbon loving people. You will be welcomed with open arms!
Hey everybody! Episode 173 of the show is out. In this episode, I spoke with Rael Inshan. Rael is an interesting guy who specializes in the amanita muscaria mushroom. I was really happy to have him on to speak about this sacred medicine as its not a topic I have covered much. We spoke about his difficult childhood and how that led him to South America to work with different indigenous medicine traditions. This eventually led him to discover the amanita muscaria mushroom in the woods near him and to begin working with it and to learn, firsthand, it's benefits. He speaks about the wisdom it has taught him about it's medicine on the individual level as well as the collective and a vision of a new earth that he feels the mushroom is guiding us towards.

The United States hasn't tested nuclear weapons since 1992, but President Trump may be changing that. He is ordering Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and his “Department of War” to “immediately” start testing nuclear weapons "on an equal basis" with other nations. He is specifically trying to compete with Russia and China, but it has also been decades since those countries tested nuclear weapons. It's unclear if that means America will wait for any nuclear action before launching tests or not. Trump announced the move on Truth Social ahead of his meeting today with Chinese President Xi Jinping in South Korea in what may have been an attempt to appear powerful. Court decisions on the matter of Trump sending National Guard troops into Portland and Chicago are pending. We will check in with former federal prosecutor and now defense attorney David Katz to get his thoughts.

Send us a textA perfect circle of mushrooms in the grass can feel like a message. We follow that feeling into the heart of fungi and folklore with Amanda McLoughlin and Julia Schifini of Spirits, exploring why mushrooms unsettle us, how they anchor myth, and what they can teach us about living with limits and wonder. From fairy rings and house spirits to cordyceps and body horror, we trace the line between ecology and story: a mycelial network expands and fruits at the edge, myth calls it a threshold, and we decide whether to cross.We dig into the science that fuels the myths—external digestion, predatory oyster mushrooms hunting nematodes, and the eerie intelligence of networks that appear overnight. Then we connect those facts to the rules of folklore: hospitality laws, shared flood stories, and warnings against greed that echo modern forager ethics. We also examine the complicated modern history of psychedelics, sacred ritual, and the mid‑century rush that stripped context in favor of spectacle, reminding ourselves that power without reciprocity becomes a curse in every tradition.Finally, we turn to fungi as caretakers: recyclers of forests, soil makers, and even potential allies against plastic pollution. Along the way, Amanda and Julia share why house spirits matter, how rituals make homes feel alive, and why returning to stories of reciprocity might be the most practical climate strategy of all. Press play for a smart, spooky tour of mushrooms, myth, and the moral math of sharing a planet.
