Lyrics to Paul Stamets Interlude
"-then from 250 million years ago to um hundred and um uh 10 million years ago, and recently in Brazil and uh fossil was found; a fully-intact mushroom.
Now this is really important. Mushrooms had their form long before we had ours.
So, well, Mushrooms? What are mushrooms?
Mushrooms are the fruit bodies. They're their reproductive structures.
They're fleshy.
They tend to be very Temporal.
They're Fragrant.
They tend to rot quickly.
But it's the Mycelium that gives rise to the Mushroom's, their fruit bodies.
So when you touch a Mushroom, it's really a window into an underground network that you can't see. (Can't see, can't see)
