At the 2006 Bioneers Conference, for example, Paul Stamets talked about mycoattractants and mycopesticides, and referenced a patent <http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO2&Sect2=HITOFF&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsearch-adv.htm&r=1&p=1&f=G&l=50&d=PTXT&S1=stamets.INNM.&OS=IN/stamets&RS=IN/stamets> which had just been issued to him that could "revamp the pesticide industry". He said that it could rid a house of termites and carpenter ants for $1 a year! A really, really short excerpt from that talk is linked via this page <http://fungifest.com/2007/03>. Apparently the whole talk is available for download (audio only) for $2 from here <https://secure.bioneers.org/node/580>.
Mycologist showed using compost and added fungi to de-comtaminate soil
soaked in fuel oil.
I highly recommend watching this, if you can find it.
But a talk at a conference does not sound like an episode of... a TV/web show(? "an episode of 'Bioneers...'"). I suppose an episode could extract from and be built around such a talk, but is that what happened? Was it even this particular mycologist or some other?
Would it be possible to offer more information, if you remember or have it?
