Obviously one of the most popular in that genre, The Joe Rogan Experience, which everyone has most likely heard of but probably not listened to. He has a wide variety of guests, some more interesting than others. Here are some of my favourites: - #1572 - Moxie Marlinspike (one of the founders of Signal) - #1368 and #1536 - Edward Snowden (NSA Whistleblower) - #1169, #1470, #1609 - Elon Musk (of Tesla, SpaceX fame) - #1035, #1385 - Paul Stamets (The Mushroom Man, TED talk: ▶ this video ) - #1800 - Gavin de Becker (Leading expert on protection of public figures) He's had Jack Dorsey, Bernie Sanders, The Undertaker, Mike Tyson, Miley Cyrus, Kanye West... and many more, most of them very entertaining and insightful.
> But I think using psilocybin mushrooms in spaceflight makes a lot of sense. There are more than 65 articles right now ... at ClinicalTrials.gov that say psilocybin mushrooms help people overcome [post-traumatic stress disorder], loneliness and depression. Do you think the astronauts are going to have loneliness and depression and PTSD? I think yes. How are you going to help them? Paul Stamets is an expert mycologist and really down-to-earth guy. I highly recommend his Ted Talks if you're interested in this type of stuff, here's one of them [1]. [1] ▶ this video
"There's been buzz lately about mycelium" -- Well, Paul Stamets has been talking for decades. Did a TED talk, amazing other videos - a fantastic Joe Rogan Podcast etc. Mycelium is AMAZING - and I really hope that we start using it in the myriad ways it is versatile for so many different applications. --- Have you Seen these Paul Stamets vids: Joe rogan: link Ted (6 ways mushrooms can change the world: ▶ this video link link
Paul Stamets is a fascinating person. You're right, the Star Trek character is named after him [0]. I remember hearing, perhaps in the Joe Rogan podcast, that he consulted for the show. He has a brilliant TED talk on the world-changing potential of fungi research [1]. [0] link [1] ▶ this video
This TED talk was very interesting about some fungi facts. ▶ this video On a side note, I thought this was an interesting take on Bitcoin in relation to fungi. link
