  6. I really enjoyed the film. I have become very interested, partly from hearing Paul Stamets speak and his enthusiasm for mycology and love of mushrooms. I looked into the medical research, and felt inwardly guided to become a guide for people for receiving the benefits that psilocybin can bring as psilocybin mushrooms become legal in Oregon in 2023. So glad to learn of your passion and all you are exploring.

  7. I must say, Hamilton is looking super healthy! I’ve been using his lions mane product regularly for about a year-and-a-half now and I can tell it’s making a difference in brain functioning. I love the scenes at Mountain Faire (especially the mushroom costume) and in the woods. Very cool work benefiting humanity (both with the mushrooms and the documentaries)! Great job, Lawrence.
