Summary

Do you want to learn more about the fascinating world of fungus? In this episode, Deanna discusses Elise Gravel's book The Mushroom Fan Club. The author takes us on a magical tour of the forest floor and examines a handful of her favorite alien specimens up close. While the beautiful coral mushroom looks like it belongs under the sea, the peculiar Lactarius indigo may be better suited for outer space. From the fun-to-stomp puffballs to the prince of the stinkers ― the stinkhorn mushroom ― and the musically inclined chanterelles, Gravel shares her knowledge of this fascinating kingdom by bringing each species to life in full felt-tip-marker glory.
