They could live without us, but could we live without them? Would we want to? Listen to the story of a college kid who ran up against a shotgun wielding morel hunter on his quest to find the best patch of mushrooms, find out what pricey mushroom smells like sweat and semen, and a mycologist who things we have a lot to learn from the lowly mushroom.
