  <description><![CDATA[<p>I'm a Missouri gal obsessed with the magical world of mushrooms! I want to educate myself along with you all on everything from growing your own edible mushrooms, to the latest medical research involving the benefits of our fungal friends.I experiment with all different kinds of formatting, you'll hear interviews with guests, as well as how-tos on foraging and cooking wild mushrooms. You'll even hear in depth discussions on mushrooms as they relate to spirituality, and how they have been incredibly important to humanity since the beginning of our life on Earth! I highly encourage questions from the audience- I will answer anything and everything about mycology! I am so very amateur compared to many other mushroom enthusiasts and mycologists out there, I consider myself a curious "citizen scientist" and I promise to present the most accurate facts possible, correcting myself any time it's necessary.There are all kinds of great podcasts out there about mushrooms, and many of them focus on the North American coasts, but I want to add a Midwest focus to the mix. We have a unique and beautiful landscape that provides us with some amazing 'shroomy goodness.&nbsp;</p>]]></description>
