Welcome back to The Mind Meld, my friends, and before we get into the Wonderwell, you may have heard me allude to the fact that I do have something of a stack of vitamins.

I do consume a fair range of supplements. Some of them I love, some of them probably absolutely insignificant nonsense.

But I must say a standby for me for years now has been four sigmatics tremendous lineup of super shroom infused coffees and elixirs.

You probably know them for their lion's mane and chaga mushroom coffee, and indeed I do love the stuff.

I also really love their lion's mane elixirs.

And if you aren't familiar, the lion's mane mushroom is a pretty incredible thing.

It's purported to have a myriad of cognitive benefits, and actually Buddhist monks have used it for centuries to deepen their meditative practice.

And when I talk about four sigmatic, it's really hard to know where to stop, because I can't cover it all.

I can't ramble about rachy and chaga and quarter seps.

I'll just say that I'm a believer in that you should give it a try, and you don't risk anything by doing it as they have a money back guarantee.

Michael Philip here, glorious to have you back. And I wonder if this idea resonates with you, my fellow sentient sacks of stardust.

We, of course, without a doubt romanticize the value of being right.

I mean, I couldn't even venture a guess on how many screen-shotted exchanges of tweets or DMs or comments I've seen where somebody linguistically owns somebody else or clips on YouTube with millions of views

where someone quote unquote destroys someone else.

You know what I'm talking about. I assume clearly there is something in the human mind that relishes intellectual domination or linguistic superiority more than just about anything.
