Show Notes

This week we're diving into the mushroom that flips the script on undercooked food: instead of food poisoning, you get pint‑sized visitors marching across your plate. As we explore the science and folklore behind Lanmaoa asiatica, we end up questioning why so many hallucinogens summon the same beings—and whether these tiny folk are brain glitches or something hiding in plain sight.
