Should We Take Mushrooms? Psychedelics & Healing  
Podcast: Don't Listen To Us with Mandy Patinkin and Kathryn Grody
Rating: Explicit Published On: Wed Sep 09 2026
Description: What happens when Mandy and Kathryn get mushroom-curious? They dive into psychedelics, trauma, healing, and the possibility of taking a trip themselves, with musician Elvis Perkins along for the conversation (and a song).  Also: Cardboard Becky takes a fall, and the family argues that jury duty is actually an honor and a good democratic thing so stop weaseling out of it!   Check out the musical explorations of Elvis Perkins at elvisperkinssound.net.
