Laboratory chemist and fungi fanatic David Poplin joins us on the pod today to talk about the High-Performance Liquid Chromatography Process, the science of solvents and fungi extracts, mushroom genetics, and the bigger picture of citizen science and community service through the lens of mushroom cultivation and distribution.

We also explore the intersection of music and psychedelic mushrooms, speaking about our personal experiences and adventures in the world of music production and performance on small doses of psilocybin mushrooms.

David is of the most genuine, humble and intelligent humans you’re going to come across in this crazy world. He also happens to be a classically trained laboratory scientist with a diligent understanding of all aspects of mushroom and cannabis cultivation. He embodied everything a mycopreneur can be; community and service minded, resourceful, and always working towards answering his the mushrooms call for him to "be a better person".
