Here is a very cool video of the envision festival in Costa Rica this year in 2020. With Paul Stamets. Dont be a fucking hater. It's worth watching and learning.
If this isn't right forum to post in just let me know. I'll post it in the right spot

Stamets said that people that put mushrooms in ziplock bags are criminals and deserve to go to prison. Also, his theory of primate brain enlargement caused by eating cubensis has no evidence at all. I know that he holds a wealth of knowledge about fungus, but he spreads a lot of lies and untruths. It takes a lot of digging to figure out how much is snake oil and what is science.

I love listening to his rogan podcasts too. He's got the charisma to make you want to believe and a lot he says is very interesting. His book has lots of good technique and information about commercial cultivation of edibles. But he crosses the line with spreading his personal theories as fact.

I don’t think the stoned ape theory is attributed to Stamets. It makes sense to me though. Maybe the brain size growing is from other things or a combination but as far as self awareness and abstract thinking I can’t imagine anything more suitable than psychedelics.

Paul's not good at science but where he excels is promoting fungi as a whole. He's done a lot in bringing medicinal fungi to public awareness, definitely one of the leaders in that regards. I wish he would correct his damn book though. I'm tired of telling people that complete darkness and incubation aren't useful, lol.

Yeah, Stamets is a proponent of the theory, though. I saw him talk about it most recently in the interview with Pollan in How to Change Your Mind.
