Gold Tops and Blue Meanies… are these magic mushrooms, Australian? Do we even know all the psilocybin mushroom species here in Australia?

Thereʻs renewed interest in Magic mushrooms and they arenʻt well documented, joining us is Dr Alistair McTaggart, a mycologist who is trying to remedy that oversight.

Joining 4ZZZʻs Eliot Rifkin to chat about all things Magic Mushrooms is Alistair McTaggart from UQʻs Queensland Alliance for Agriculture & Food Innovation (QAAFI).

 

For a deep dive...
