Today's guest is what I call a gentle genius. His name is Randy Polumbo, and I think he might be one of the coolest people I've ever met. He's an artist, a builder, a thinker, a father, a propagator of mycelium, a fan of eating bugs, and a kindhearted creative of the highest order. I met with him at his shop in Brooklyn to talk about childhood toys, owl pellets, the Gowanus Canal, art, sound, and more. Share and Enjoy!

Ohh man...how fortunate are we to live in the same world as today's guest, Erik Lomen. First of all, I only got to meet Erik because of serendipitous timing, bad weather in Cheyenne, WY, a not-to-be-missed Boston Celtics game, my propensity to arrive early for meals, my preference for eating at the bar, and a chance encounter with Erik's delightful and interesting mom, Marcy. Based solely on her hardly disinterested say-so, I drove to Gardiner Maine to spend the day with one of our new favorite people. Erik is the host of "The Myco Wizards Podcast", and founder and brainchild behind the wildly innovative Maine Cap 'N Stem - a supplier of spore-ready substrate for cultivators of mushrooms from Lion's Mane to Penis Envy. This is NOT a stoner, freaky mushroom weirdo episode...well, it is, but it's also much more. Erik is a deeply thoughtful, battle-tested polymath with a heart of red oak; perfect for taking mycelium to all its favorite places. Tune in for a particularly interesting ride. Share and Enjoy!

What can I say about Heiko Greb? He’s a scientist, a sculptor, a skilled wood carver, a seamstress, an ice cream maker, a friend, and much, much more. We had a late-night chat in Bombay Beach, CA, to discuss the Hawaiian alphabet, art, Heiko’s personal history, and more. Share and Enjoy!
