We dive into the dangerous yet deceptively world of poisonous mushrooms. From the lawn-dwelling False Parasol to the infamous Death Cap for Cutie, KK breaks down 6 toxic fungi that could ruin more than just your hike. You’ll learn how to spot deadly lookalikes, like the glowing Jack-O'-Lantern, and the brain-like False Morel, and the elegant but lethal Destroying Angel. Don't even touch the Trichoderma cornu-damae... Each mushroom comes with its own set of symptoms — from stomach-twisting cramps to liver failure — and often mimics edible species, making misidentification a real risk.
The takeaway? Don’t eat any mushroom you can’t confidently ID, and beware of the seemingly innocent “Little Brown Mushrooms.” This episode mixes science, safety tips, and a bit of sass to help you forage smarter — and stay alive.
