Know Your Mushrooms Showing October 4th on the Sundance Channel

Embedded YouTube Video Clips Below

I just finished watching a documentary called Know Your Mushrooms which I recorded from a showing yesterday on the Sundance Channel. The documentary was made by director Ron Mann who is best known for his film Comic Book Confidential.

Much of the film was shot at the annual Telluride Mushroom Festival which is a Mecca for psychedelic fungiphiles. It explores many of the elaborate urban myths and theoretical speculations which have popped up like multiple fruiting bodies from the subcultural sod.

As someone who has in the past had a tale or two to tell about their experiences with various mind-changing catalysts including members of the Psilocybin mushroom family, I found the segment “Gary Lincoff’s mushroom trip” which is the first video below amusing.

Also below is a longer segment — an interview with director Ron Mann first shown on QTV
