“We believe that functional mushrooms have as much, if not more, potential to help humanity than psilocybin, and that’s coming from me, who is dedicating my life to advancing psilocybin mushrooms and psychedelics as a whole,” says Del Jolly, co-founder of the psychedelic research non-profit Unlimited Sciences.
That’s why he recently co-founded a functional mushroom company called Umbo alongside pro athletes Jake Plummer and Rashad Evans.
Plummer, former Denver Broncos quarterback, says he’s found a lot of healing through mushrooms, using them to counteract the harm that football injuries can have on the brain. He’s also noticed that his allergies symptoms and quality of sleep have improved since introducing functional mushrooms to his diet.

In partnership with Red Light Holland (TRIP), multi-platinum rapper Wiz Khalifa is starting a psychedelic and functional mushroom brand called MISTERCAP.
Red Light Holland hopes to leverage Khalifa’s huge following and entrepreneurial success in the cannabis industry to help end the stigma surrounding psilocybin.
The brand will sell:
Recreational psilocybin truffles in the Netherlands (potentially expanding to other markets if legalized)
Mushroom growing kits in the US, Canada, and Europe (launching by the end of this year)
Red Light Holland also announced that it’s starting a new program to provide advice and funding to business owners who are looking to enter Oregon’s legal psilocybin therapy market.

Red Light Holland to document Russell Peters’ moments in The Netherlands, as he will be accompanied by a camera crew.
Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – April 4, 2022) – Red Light Holland Corp. (CSE: TRIP) (FSE: 4YX) (OTC Pink: TRUFF) (“Red Light Holland” or the “Company”), an Ontario-based corporation engaged in the production, growth, and sale of a premium brand of magic truffles, is pleased to announce Russell Peters, the company’s Chief Creative Officer (Twitter: @TheRealRussellP – 3.9M Followers, Facebook: The REAL Russell Peters – 1.4M Followers, Instagram: @RussellPeters 502k) is expected to arrive in Amsterdam to experience his first psychedelic journey, in late May, 2022. Russell will be using Red Light Holland’s premium psilocybin truffles and will be guided by Red Light Holland’s therapist and expert psychedelic guide Jeff Hamburg. Peters will be accompanied by a camera crew and will give a special intimate Q&A hosted by CEO Todd Shapiro in front of a live audience which will be live-streamed on Red Light Holland social media accounts after he completes his journey and integration session. More details about the location and exact times, anticipated to happen in late May 2022, will be released in the near future.
“As I’ve previously said – after I deal with all my trauma – I hope I still have the ability to make people laugh,” said Russell Peters, Red Light Holland’s Chief Creative Officer. “Truthfully 2021 was a tough year for many of us. Personally, I missed performing. I missed the adrenaline of a live audience on a consistent basis. Connecting with a loyal audience is what made me who I am, and its something I’ve always been grateful for. However, through the struggles of a changing world came perspective and love. In October 2021, I actually thought I was ready for this journey – but now I’m truly ready for the Red Light Holland team to help guide me through a deeper meaning to this wild life which we all have one shot at. I hope by eventually sharing my Red Light Holland facilitated journey in a livestream during a Q&A with CEO Todd Shapiro to the world, we can try to inspire and help others. Life has ups and downs. Enjoying the ups is great, but dealing with the downs are important, as is set and setting, proper guidance and timing. The time is right. Red Light Holland and I are ready.”
“Russell and I were originally supposed to be in The Netherlands in October 2021 to bring this experience to the world – but then I unfortunately got COVID-19 and I couldn’t travel,” said Todd Shapiro, CEO and Director of Red Light Holland. “Russell was willing to go ahead but asked if we could be there together so we could talk about his experience in a candid, genuine and unstructured – real – fashion, as we’ve known each other on a personal level for quite some time now. We’ve been patient and now we’ve found a window of opportunity to make whole on his journey! Let’s hope Covid or any other unforeseen events don’t bring us down, as we are genuinely looking forward to late May. We are a very progressive company and we are not afraid to highlight our mission – of providing responsible use, affordable and equitable access to psilocybin with the goal of positive change. Russell’s willingness to share his experience is a blessing. It’s rare that you get a celebrity of his stature able to open up about such an intimate moment in their life. As I used to say, ‘stay tuned’ for more details to come soon. Much love!”
“Again, I’m excited to facilitate Russell on his truffle journey. It will be fascinating to hear Russell share his experience with the world since every journey is unique,” said Jeff Hamburg, Red Light Holland Therapist and expert psychedelic facilitator. “I am confident this will be beneficial not only to Russell himself, but to others hearing and learning about the potential benefits of such an experience.”
Red Light Holland and Russell Peters will share more details, about where and when people in the Netherlands can attend the live intimate event and where individuals all around the world can view the live-stream, in the near future.

Lil Nas X was honoured as a visionary at the Wall Street Journal’s Innovator Awards after releasing his latest album, ‘Montero’. Were magic mushrooms the secret behind his success?
The artist says that his first-ever mushroom trip was a pivotal moment while recording the album. The experience helped him reflect on himself and break free from feelings of self-consciousness.
“I was able to open up a lot. I was able to write actual stories about my life and put it into my music. I actually did that for the first time,” Nas explained.
Magic mushrooms may have been the key to this NHL legend’s success.
Mark Messier, the only NHL player to lead two different teams to Stanley Cup championships, said that a magic mushroom trip at age 19 sparked his interest in spirituality and the power of the mind.
“I had no idea the mind was that powerful. Obviously it turned out to be an amazing experience, but more important was the question afterwards: wow, how can I use my mind to empower myself to be a better player, to be a better person, to have more energy, to create a better aura?,” he explains.
The trip inspired Messier to learn about Eastern philosophies, Buddhism, Indigenous spirituality, and meditation, which had a major influence on him both as a player and a leader.

Was Kacey Musgraves’ new album inspired by shrooms?
Two days before recording Star-crossed, Kacey went on a guided psilocybin journey that brought up a lot of feelings. She laid blindfolded and listened the Johns Hopkins psychedelic therapy playlist, which is curated by neuroscientists to trigger different emotions.
“Music has never sounded so good than it did when I was in that state,” she says. “You notice every nuance of every note. You react viscerally to it. And that served as a lot of the inspiration for the new record.”
She said that psilocybin helps people confront their demons, which “instantly makes them smaller”. After struggling through a recent divorce, the experience helped Musgraves find hope and gratitude for her other relationships in life.
After battling internal struggles that led him to the brink of suicide, Mike Tyson says he feels better than ever since using psilocybin for mental and spiritual exploration. Tyson is partnering with Wesana Health to bring awareness to the benefits of psilocybin, as he believes that it is an “amazing medicine” that should be accessible to the world because it could create “a more empathetic and just society”. Former NHL player Daniel Carcillo also participated in psilocybin treatment and claims that he is 100% cured of traumatic brain injury and related symptoms such as slurred speech, headaches, insomnia, anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation.
After suffering from depression for 22 years, actress Kristen Bell found relief and self-love from a single dose of psilocybin. Kristen Bell became extremely interested in psychedelics and their power to change your mindset after reading How to Change Your Mind by Michael Pollan. Bell has suffered from waves of depression for 22 years and has tried everything from antidepressants and therapy to meditation. Bell took one dose of psilocybin, and stated that “the places you can go in your brain are much deeper and more healing than anything else”. Bell explains that the out of body experience she had while taking mushrooms gave her a sense of self love. “I had separated this body that had done so much good in my life, that has taken me through happiness and pain and workouts and laziness that I just, like, couldn’t stop touching my legs, going, ‘You’re so strong. You’re so elegant’ .”
