    213: Why This Mushroom Drink Is Changing Everything

    Ask Flora Funga Podcast anything OR Leave a Review Allen L. Davies III, known as Allen the Fun Guy, has spent over 15 years immersed in mushrooms, fermentation, and culinary innovation. With a deep respect for food as a cultural cornerstone, he views it as both sustenance and medicine—capable of nourishing, healing, and driving meaningful change through sustainability and accessibility. An expert in Koji (Aspergillus oryzae), Allen has expanded its use far beyond traditional applications. Since 2020, he has cultivated over seven tons of Koji across diverse substrates, exploring its enzymatic potential in miso, amazake, garum, and functional extractions. His work bridges fermentation, mycology, and bioactive mushroom extraction, pushing Koji into new territory. Through fermentation and functional fungi, Allen is on a mission to make mushrooms more accessible and shift how they’re perceived. That vision comes to life with Mycopop—a mycofunctional beverage blending cordyceps and lion’s mane with the refreshment of an energy drink or seltzer. Inspired by his collaboration with citizen scientist William Padilla Brown, Mycopop bridges function and flavor, making mushroom-powered wellness part of everyday life. From pioneering fermentation techniques to crafting functional foods and beverages, Allen continues to redefine fungi—not just as food, but as tools for nourishment, transformation, and cultural evolution.

    209: Your Beer has Glyphosate with Brandon Rust

    Ask Flora Funga Podcast anything OR Leave a Review Brandon Rust has been cultivating and breeding cannabis for 20+ years, originally from San Diego, he currently resides in Oklahoma and works in the legal cannabis industry, as an owner operator and as a private consultant. A self-taught agronomist and microbiologist, Brandon owns Bokashi Earthworks, which is involved in manufacturing microbial consortiums for the use in agriculture, bioremediation and green waste recycling. manufacturing organic soils specifically blended for cannabis production, and is involved in the manufacturing and distribution of organic carbon based humate fertilizer in partnership with NASA agricultural technologies.  Biggest takeaway: organic nutrition isn’t just “natural,” it can actually help plants absorb nutrients more efficiently because of humic and fulvic acids, which support bioavailability and the soil microbiome. He even talked about a “NASA fertilizer” concept aimed at making fertilizer cleaner and way more efficient, and why conventional urea can be shockingly wasteful. We also kept it real about agriculture myths, marketing scams, and why regenerative farming is going mainstream.  All resources on florafungapodcast.com/209 I got a new phone number to text in with any questions, comments, or photos! 727-477-5974 Support the show Text (727) 477-5974 Flora Funga Phone with your questions, comments, concerns, and IDs  Flora Funga: Calm & Collected Tincture — Flora Funga Podcast GoFundME If you like the podcast please think of donating to Keep the show happening  $keenie19 on Cash App Follow my other social media sites to interact and engage with me: Email me to be on the podcast or inperson Interview: floraandfungapodcast@gmail.com Facebook Instagram Twitter TikTok YouTube Patreon --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Zbiotics: "FLORA10" Drink ZBiotics before drinking alcohol-Alcohol produces acetaldehyde, a byproduct that your next day ...
