    17:48 Why’s everyone obsessed with mushrooms? The Last of Us. People been obsessing over cordyceps since 2013.

    “Magic mushrooms *probably* didn’t evolve to have hallucinogenic properties.” I like a scientist who hedges his bets and doesn’t jump to conclusions.

    But yes, you ARE missing something. They’re being legalized in several states, not to mention a few certain “TV SERIES” that everyone and their grandma watched. Look, they’re gonna be the next viking or ninja; cool for like 8 months then move on to something else pop culturally relevant.

    THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!! As a Mycology enthusiast and hopefully a genuine bonafide Mycologist in the future, videos like these that clear up misconceptions and whatnot are so helpful for giving people actual reliable information on these guys and also allowing more people to be exposed and interested in them as well.

    I’m a big fan of mushrooms. The edible ones are delicious. I’m less of a fan of fungi that cause infections in humans, such as yeast or ringworm. That kind of fungus can F right off.

    I do think a follow up video about molds and yeast could be interesting though.

    The way he pronounced FemDom Farm makes me think there’s either a 50% chance he is completely oblivious of what he just said, or a 50% chance he totally knows and said it that way on purpose to conceal that fact LOL

    Awesome answers. I agree with David on the “push back” against using the word zombie for the infected ants and other insects.

  58. Ray Bod

    It’s possible that a mind controlling fungus could happen if Fauci pays a lab in China to do enhanced function DNA changes.

    It already exists… You don’t think the trial run was the disinformation you were fed about the Chinese virus? How you willingly gave up your right to assemble. How you willingly gave up your right to freedom of religion. How you willingly wore a mask when there was absolutely no scientific basis for it… None in fact it made the spreading worse. How you willingly were taught to hate people who didn’t want to take an experimental vaccination. You willingly believed that the experimental vaccination worked. How you willingly believed if you were vaccinated you couldn’t spread the Beijing virus. They made you cowtown to a false God Dr. Fauci who lied and misled everyone on his culpability in Genocide. Joe Biden and the Democrats did that to you… Let that sink in

    I don’t think its surprising that psilocybin is so similar to serotonin and binds to all the serotonin receptors in the brain. After all outside of the brain serotonin is massively involved in digestion. There is more serotonin in your gut than your brain. So if psilocybin was some sort of protection targeting serotonin receptors in the digestive tract of animals makes perfect sense. Its just pure coincidence that serotonin is also used in the brain or mamals, allowing psilocybin to have unintended affects.

    I adore mushroom caps and how stinkin’ cute some mushrooms are, but a lot of them trigger debilitating trypohobia, especially the underside. Like, seriously, I’ve been twitching for almost the entire video and am reaching the point where my limbs are about to fall limp, but they’re just so cool. I want to learn. ;-; Hng… Why do the mushies gotta be so mean??

  114. Evo

    May 6, 2023 at 4:44 pm

    Don’t have to listen to this to know the answer is YES. But Like, it would have to be insanely more complex than what there is now. If it ever happens, it was likely manufactured by humans. It just needs so much evolution in a specific direction it’s impossible unless it somehow evolves with humans.

    I didn’t know I needed all these mycology facts in my life, but I’m here for it.
    I love how genuinely interested Dr. Hibbett is in this subject. It makes it fun to learn when the teacher has a genuine interest.

    Oh yeah happy chance of evolution that it’s nearly identical to DMT – one of the most common metabolites in the eco system and is in many plants in various forms just not in high enough concentrations. 3:30 That idea is just ridiculous. Happy coincidence lol … eat some and see how it’s all ‘random’ . “God doesn’t play dice” – Einstein. “Either everything is a miracle or nothing is” – Einstein. Everything is a miracle and you begin to understand that after you eat some mushrooms.

    The lethal dose of the most deadly mushroom in the world is .1 mg per KG of bodyweight. So, if you’re an average 72kg male, just eat half of the lethal dose (3.6mg) and see if you get sick. If you don’t, double it and subtract 1mg. If you still don’t get sick, your safe to add the original dose again (1.5x lethal dose if it’s the most deadly mushroom in the world… it clearly isn’t or you would have been sick by now).

    How tired do mycologists get of mushroom puns? 🙂
    the only thing he got wrong is that no animal can do photosynthesis. That depends entirely on how nitpicky you’re willing to be. A species of sea slug is able to eat specific plants and then utilize their photosynthesis for themselves and I think that’s pretty neat 🙂

    I guess one of the answers for the last question is because of the series the last of us where it portrays that if cordyceps just evolve to withstand the human body condition and eventually take over the world, well I could be wrong but at least the thumbnail was similar to that series

    What I wonder about mycoremediation is, now that people’s bodies are saturated with microplastics, would releasing plastic-destroying spores en masse pose a health risk? Could they tear peoples’ bodies apart trying to get at the pollutants inside? And if so, maybe that would be better than the alternative…
