Fungus Among Us: A Not-So-Serious Guide to What Fungi Teach Us About Ourselves
What do you and a mushroom have in common? A lot more than you think.
From the yeast that gave us beer and bread, to the fungi that inspired witch trials, to the magic mushrooms now being studied for mental health, fungi have always been tangled up in our story. We just haven’t given them enough credit—or the punchlines they deserve.
In Fungus Among Us, Jason McIlrath takes you on a witty, mind-expanding journey into the weird world of fungi and the even weirder ways they mirror us. With equal parts humor and science, you’ll learn how mushrooms connect forests like an underground internet, why they’re more closely related to us than plants, and how they might just save the planet (or outlive us all).
This isn’t your average biology book—it’s a podcast-on-the-page, full of strange facts, wild speculation, and philosophical reflections that make you laugh while secretly rethinking life, death, and everything in between.
You’ll never look at your pizza toppings—or yourself—the same way again.
