Joe Rogan Experience #1385 - Paul Stamets

Am currently reading Sheldrake's book, Entangled Life. Highly recommend it [link] Came across it because I've always enjoyed mushroom spotting in the nearby forests, and decided to explore them in greater detail. Listened to a great talk by Paul Stamets on Jo Rogan's show ▶ this video Decided to look for a book to read, and Sheldrake's book popped up. So much of it has been fascinating, and it's a very easy read, too. It's incredible how these organisms raise so many questions about life, from panspermia to questions about individuality. Well worth a read!

For those interested in learning more about Stamets and his fungal endeavors, I recommend listening/watching the JRE episode with him ( ▶ this video ) as well as the Tim Ferris Show episode ( [link] ). Fascinating individual.
