So, mushroom coffee is a thing these days - mainly thanks to those Nordic fellas from 4 Sigmatic, which you may have heard of?

What’s next? Coffee mixed with butter?!

Oh, wait…

Future episode, maybe.

Let’s stick with the mushroom one for now.

When it comes to mushroom coffee, your question is probably the same one we had: what’s the fu*kin point in this? Why ruin one of life’s little pleasures by mixing it with a fungus??

Usually the answer comes back to health benefits or weight loss or something, so we assumed this was the same.

Another important question: will it taste like shit? Or mushrooms? That’s probably more likely. Otherwise it’d just be called, “sh*t coffee”, coffee made from sh*t - which is also a thing!

So many coffee variants, so little… actually, let’s be honest, plenty of time to try them all. But, if you’ve heard of mushroom coffee and can’t be arsed paying a premium for a potential bag of dirt, take 57 mins to listen to this and we’ll let you know if it’s something you should bother with, or not.
