Her Magic Mushroom Memoir — A New Kind of Storytelling

On August 21, a new storytelling experience arrived that blurs the lines between literature and audio drama. According to the official press release, Her Magic Mushroom Memoir is both a historical novel and a binge-worthy serialized podcast.

Narrated by Emmy-nominated voice actress Melissa Disney, this 22-episode adaptation transports listeners into the intertwined lives of neuroscientist Dr. Lidiya Hart Johnson and reluctant biographer Christopher Wade. The story doesn’t just unfold—it immerses.

Unlike a traditional release, this project is steeped in real history. Inspired by the notes of R. Gordon Wasson, along with scientific studies and eyewitness accounts, Her Magic Mushroom Memoir adds texture to a cultural moment that continues to shape discussions about memory, healing, and identity.

The press release highlights the team behind the project: crime novelist Darren Hackett and physician-researcher John Wasson as authors, with Serena Travis producing. Together, they’ve crafted an experience that is as cinematic to hear as it is to imagine.

Episodes are already streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Amazon Music. For those who crave more, bonus content and cultural insights can be found at HerMagicMushroomMemoir.com.

This isn’t just a story—it’s an invitation to step into memory, myth, and the magic of mushrooms. Subscribe, rate, and review with your thoughts.
