About this listen
This program is read by the author.
From a much-loved expert and popular science writer comes this straight-from-the-trenches report on how and why folks from all walks of life are using magic mushrooms to enhance their lives.
Interest in psychedelic mushrooms has never been greater–or the science less definitive. Popular science writer and amateur mycologist Eugenia Bone reports on the state of psychedelics today, from microdosing to heroic trips, illustrating how “citizen science” and anecdotal accounts of the mushrooms’ benefits are leading the new wave of scientific inquiry into psilocybin.
With her signature blend of first-person narrative and scientific rigor, Bone breaks down just how the complicated cocktail of psychoactive compounds is thought to interact with our brain chemistry. She explains how mindset and setting can impact a trip–whether therapeutic, spiritual/mystical, or simply pleasure seeking–and vividly evokes the personalities and protocols that populate the tripping scene, from the renegade “’Noccers” of Washington who merrily disperse magic mushroom spores around Seattle, to the indigenous curanderas who conduct traditional ceremonies in remote Mexican villages.
Throughout she shares her journey through the world of mushrooms, cultivating her own stash, grappling with personal challenges, and offering the insights she gleaned from her experiences. For both seasoned trippers and the merely mushroom curious, Have a Good Trip offers a balanced, entertaining, and provocative look at this rapidly evolving cultural phenomenon.

©2024 Eugenia Bone (P)2024 Macmillan AudioCritic reviews
"Bone serves up an eye-opening examination of the science and benefits of psilocybin mushrooms . . . The elegant blend of scientific research, stories of individual mushroom users, and Bone’s own experiences with the drug make for a study that’s as eclectic as it is stimulating. This will expand readers’ minds."—Publishers Weekly
“Beautifully composed, Eugenia Bone’s book is a trip in itself.”—Suzanne Simard, PhD, forest ecologist and author of Finding the Mother Tree
“Eugenia Bone does it again! She takes the reader on a deep dive into the rapidly emerging practice of psilocybin use with a balanced view toward benefits, potential pitfalls, and ever-expanding applications. I unabashedly recommend this book for all those contemplating or currently engaged with psilocybin mushrooms.”—Paul Stamets, author of Mycelium Running

Story
Until the twentieth century, scientists investigating the effects of drugs on the mind did so by experimenting on themselves. Vivid descriptions of drug experiences sparked insights across the mind sciences, pharmacology, medicine, and philosophy. But after 1900 drugs were increasingly viewed as a social problem, and the long tradition of self-experimentation began to disappear. Mike Jay brilliantly recovers a lost intellectual tradition of drug-taking that fed the birth of psychology, the discovery of the unconscious, and the emergence of modernism.

Chock Full of Information about Psychedelic Mushrooms
An interesting cross between a course textbook and a personal experience report. For a topic where many writings seem to be tinted with the respective author’s strong opinions, this author provides a fairly neutral report. I appreciated her willingness to provide divergent views allowing the reader to obtain an understanding of various aspects of psychedelic mushrooms. She didn’t gloss over or avoid difficulties associated with use. Keep a notepad with you as she periodically informs the reader of helpful resources. So glad I read this!

A fantastic compilation on all things psilocybin for a wide variety of listeners.
Eugenia Bone does an amazing job of researching every aspect of psilocybin, from the neurochemistry and pharmacokinetics, to the impact that its renewed attention has had on the Indigenous people who have sacredly used and protected it for generations. She presents all of it in fascinating and easy to listen to manner. This is a great book for people who are simply interested in knowing what all of the "magic mushroom fuss" is about, to experienced trippers, and to people who are thinking about dipping their toe in the world of psilocybin. Thanks to Ms. Bone for recognizing the need, and for fulfilling it in such a clear and authentic book.
