Niah is an aspiring mycologist with a strong background in fungal research and hands-on experience in cultivation and foraging. She works with Bigfoot Mushrooms, helping to grow and sell a variety of gourmet cultivated species, while also maintaining her own home cultivation projects. Niah’s passion extends beyond the mushroom itself — she's deeply interested in agroecology and how fungi can support healthier crops and more sustainable farming practices. She also explores the powerful role fungi play in protecting delicate ecosystems like wetlands.

In 2025, Flora Funga Podcast didn’t just grow—it spread: according to my Spotify for Podcasters + YouTube Studio stats, 26 people had Flora Funga as their #1 show, 310 had it in their Top 10, and 186 had it in their Top 5—plus 5% hit play within 24 hours and 25% of you binged 2+ episodes a day (mycelium behavior). The biggest Spotify breakout was Ep 179: “WTF is a Fungarium?! Tour with Matthew Smith” 260% jump vs other episodes),

with another standout being Ep 190: “MEET THE PLUG: Nourish Cap”

—and we were played in

51 countries (top: US, Canada, UK, Australia, Sweden)… but I want MORE. YouTube stats were tougher because my old account got banned, but since launching @florafungatv in October,

The top episodes were Ep 182: Paul Stamets Interview

Ep 178: “5 Ways Fungi Are Closer to Humans Than Plants”

Ep 175: “What does Fashion and Mushrooms Have in Common?”

Ep 172: “If you Sell Mushroom Products you’re Going to Need this!”

Ep 170: “How to Forage for Mushrooms without Dying”

Ep 183: “Why Are we NOT Roasting Chestnuts Anymore?”

“Zero sugar” doesn’t always mean zero impact. 👀🥤
This week on Flora Funga, I break down a 1-year aspartame study in mice that found something wild: the mice got leaner (less body fat)… but researchers also saw signs of heart remodeling and changes in brain metabolism, with subtle differences on a memory/learning test (Barnes maze).
