In this episode of The MycoGeeky Podcast, I sit down with acclaimed author Eugenia Bone — the voice behind Mycophilia, Microbia, and her newest work, Have a Good Trip. Eugenia’s career is a masterclass in curiosity, taking her from foraging chanterelles in the Rockies, to studying microbiology at Columbia University, to exploring the deeply human and cultural dimensions of psychedelic mushrooms.
We trace her journey through three distinct worlds:
• Mycophilia — the wild and wonderful subculture of mushroom lovers, from amateur foragers to citizen scientists.
• Microbia — the invisible realm of microbes, and what they reveal about ecosystems, health, and our own inner worlds.
• Have a Good Trip — her latest, a candid and immersive exploration of psilocybin culture, indigenous traditions, and the science of psychedelic journeys.
Along the way, Eugenia shares insights on what it means to stay endlessly curious, why community matters in the mushroom world, and how fungi connect the dots between nature, science, and spirit. Whether you’re an at-home cultivator, a forager, or simply myco-curious, this conversation will leave you thinking about mushrooms—and yourself—in a whole new way.
