What's up to my steadfast cetaceans and loquacious loons! 

Welcome back to the BNP and thank you so much for joining!

We got a fun one for ya this week folks, a real smorgasbord of podcasting piquancy. You already know we got those zany audio tidbits- and those who enjoy the Bro Vibin skits are gonna be as satisfied as a koala bear at a bamboo shit-paper plant.

Your veggies this week are nuanced, well-seasoned and colorful, though they hail from the fungal rather than plant kingdom. That's right folks, we're talking about the blue apples, the zoom zooms, the goomers and the toadstools... it's mushroom week at the BNP!

Any discussion of mushrooms in the modern age worth its weight in, well, shrooms, has to include the great American mycologist Paul Stamets, and this ep is no exception. I feature a 2019 interview with Stamets where he speaks on the mycelial network that really ties the forest together, does it not?

Stamets argues persuasively that these mycelial webs are neurological networks for nature, and points out that mycelium mats are living organisms that span hundreds of acres and live for thousands of years.... whoa.   

As well, I'm listening right now to Fyodor Dostoyevsky's Notes From Underground, and I offer some thoughts about the prose itself as well as the significance it carries for our modern times and our battle against transhumanism and the A.I. apocalypse.
 
Finally, I include a recent Barbarian Yak Fest segment with Dr. Sylvie where we discuss the bombing of the Georgia Guidestones, the "Stonehenge of the U.S."

This week's outro features the iconic Mexican mushroom shamaness Maria Sabina.
