Finders' Keepers: The Global Mushroom Ev...

Team FreshCap
About this episode

Finding mushrooms is great- but you can't keep your finds forever. Unless of course you take part in the FREE global "mushroom hunting" event where instead of looking for mushrooms, you're looking for mushroom themed art! It's called "Game Of Shrooms" and it's one of the coolest things happening in the mushroom community.

In this episode, we're going over everything you need to know about the event, including an interview with the guy who started it all, Daniel "Attaboy" Seifert.
We're also going to be digging into one of the most interesting but lesser known potential use cases for psilocybin, and it's history being used for for Cluster Headaches. These horrendous headaches have been described as one of the most painful that a human can experience... Mushrooms to the rescue?
