Dung cannons! Zombie Water Bears! Zones of Repugnance! The Emergence of Human Consciousness!
This 40 minutes has A LOT packed in.
This month I’m chatting to DH42, who has been researching a couple of native species of little-known psilocybin mushrooms that grow on animal dung. In the process, he has set up online communities where people photograph, discuss and help identify these fungi. He drops some pretty excellent fungi facts, as well as chatting around the heroes of modern mycology in Scotland and further afield.
"This month we speak with Jim Cook, of Tayside and Fife fungal group (TAFFG) about everyone’s favourite fairytale mushroom, Amanita Muscaria, or Fly Agaric, and how reindeer pee can make you fly! Jim’s knowledge of fungi in Scotland is aspirational, and in this episode he shares his favourite fungi to look at, eat, and discover, all of which can be found on the East Coast of Scotland."
Welcome to "Scotland on Shrooms" - a podcast that delves into the fascinating world of mushrooms in Scotland. Join us as we take a journey through the forests, meadows, and mountains of Scotland, discovering the diverse array of mushrooms that call this country home. From the beloved chanterelles and porcini to the lesser-known inkcaps and stinkhorns, we'll explore the different species and their unique characteristics. But our podcast is not just about mushrooms - we'll also dive into the cultural and historical significance of fungi in Scotland. From ancient folklore and traditions to modern-day culinary and medicinal uses, mushrooms have played a vital role in Scottish culture for centuries. Our guests will include mycologists, foragers, artists, storytellers and other experts who will share their insights and experiences with us. We'll also hear from folk who have their own stories and memories of mushroom hunting and consumption in Scotland. So if you're a mycophile or simply curious about the fascinating world of fungi, join us for "Scotland on Shrooms" and jump into the world of our marvellous mushrooms. This week, I'm so excited to speak to Siôn Parkinson. Sion is an artist, composer, and, performer based in his, and my, hometown of Dundee.

Аудіопривітання для українських біженців у Шотландії, яке записали шотландські діти. Оригінал аудіо англійською мовою, записаний дітьми, разом з перекладом українською.
Hello dear friend, welcome to Scotland. Sorry to hear about your situation and what is currently happening in parts of your country. We know Scotland is not your real home but we hope it can feel like a second home for you. We will try to make it feel more like home for you. You will need to get used to it raining a lot here but it doesn’t rain all the time and apart from that it is a great country to live in. We hope we can be friends and that you all feel safe and happy here.
Привіт, дорогий друже, ласкаво просимо до Шотландії.
Нам шкода чути про ситуацію, в якій ти перебуваєш і те, що відбувається в різних частинах твоєї країни.
Знаємо, що Шотландія не є твоїм справжнім домом, але сподіваємося, що ти зможеш відчути себе тут так, як у другому домі.
Ми постараємося зробити так, щоб ти відчув (або відчула) себе тут, як вдома. Тобі потрібно буде звикнути до того, що тут часто йде дощ, але так буває не весь час і за винятком цього Шотландія є чудовою країною для життя.
Віримо, що можемо стати друзями і що ви всі відчуєте себе тут безпечно і добре.
