Episode #20 "There's A Mushroom For That" Book Review Featuring Dr. Rob Silver
All right, good people. Welcome to episode #20 where we are going to talk with Dr. Rob Silver about his new book “There is a Mushroom for that” Learn How Mushrooms, Cannabis and Integrative Medicine Help Your Pets Live Long and Healthy lives. This book is a guide to managing your pets' health. We love to talk about mycozooism on this show, that is the interconnectedness of fungi and animals. We have mentioned on this show several times that animals and Fungi share a common ancestor and that Animals and Fungi are much more closely related to Animals than plants. Knowing this it seems pretty reasonable to assume that many of the medicinal properties of functional medicinal mushrooms would apply to animals, in a similar way that they apply to humans. When it comes to medicinal mushrooms the old saying “An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of Cure” is definitely true, historically mushrooms have been included in diets as a defense as much as a cure but they are also used to boost one's immune system therefore encouraging your body to fight off disease. Like most mushroom books this book starts with a mandatory introduction to Mushrooms and Mushroom physiology. I have obviously read a lot of these books and Dr. Rob's take on the subject is exceptional. Then the book moves into a discussion of Medicinal mushrooms and Dr Silver's experience and expertise really shines through and grabs your attention as he makes this complex subject easy to understand. Dr. Rob explains what the active compounds like Beta glucans, Ergosterol and Cholesterol Statins are actually doing. He then describes the benefits of 11 commonly used medicinal mushrooms and tells you how to give them to your pets. In the second half of the book Dr. Silver draws on his 40 years of experience in veterinary medicine to look at actual case studies of mushrooms and cannabinoids being used treat his furry patients for ailments including Skin Allergies, behavior problems, cancer, arthritis, digestive disorders and Epilepsy. Dr. Silver translates complicated studies into language that anyone can understand This book is fascinating to say the least and is a must add to your mycological library but don’t just take that from me... Dr Silver is here so let’s ask him some questions... www.wellpetdispensary.com www.RealMushrooms.com

Episode #19 "Fearless, Sleepless, Deathless" Book Review Featuring Maria Pinto
Alright good people, welcome to episode #19 where we are going to discuss the book “Fearless, Sleepless, Deathless” with the author Maria Pinto. This book is not a textbook about fungi.. It’s more of a mycozooistic memoir about things Maria has learned from her interactions and her personal relationship with fungi throughout the years. Maria starts her book with a poem by Ralph Waldo Emerson so we’re gonna start this episode by reading that. “Nature, through all her kingdoms, ensures herself. Nobody cares for planting the poor fungus: so she shakes down from the gills of one of agaric countless spores. Any one of which, being preserved, transmits new billions of spores tomorrow or the next day... a fearless, sleepless, deathless progeny, which is not exposed to the accidents of the weary kingdom of time.” To say Maria Pinto is unique as a mycologist is an understatement. First of all she was born in Jamaica and grew up in Florida. The jacket of the book describes her as a black naturalist. Her growing up as a Caribbean Native has given here a different perspective on the world than your average mycologist. Her world view is unique or at least poorly documented, this has lead to the creation of a book that unlike many other mushroom books would be best described as... Beautiful. Early mycology authors often used huge words that would bury the reader in vocabulary words, making a complicated subject even more confusing and intangible. A lot of other books are just a regurgitation of science published in other sources. This book draws its unique inspiration from art, poetry and the largely undocumented history of Africans living in the Caribbean. Which brings us into the realm of theoretical mycology which I know we all love. This unique take on the world makes this book fascinating and hard to put down. Whether she is referring to Christopher Columbus as being, “the name we never speak”... or addressing the Kingdom of Fungi as the Queendom of fungi, or her passion for eating dirt as a kid or her preferred “party go to move” of laying on the floor rubbing a dogs belly. Throughout this book you really get to know this likable woman and join her on here mycology adventures. Maria is joining us today so let’s ask her some questions.
