Bite Me The Show About Edibles

Ben would like y'all to start this episode with an edible so plan ahead, grab your favourite treat and get ready for a fun conversation.

Ben Kaplan thinks weed drinks should be sold in your local grocery store, that cannabis is unfairly stigmatized, that the nascent legal industry has a long way to go and that kindness is the best framework from which to operate. 

As Editor-In-Chief of Kind Magazine, a cannabis magazine freely distributed in legal dispensaries across Canada, Ben has spent a lot of time with the people involved in legal Cannabis in Canada. He's both optimistic and critical of how the legal industry works but instead of complaining, Ben devotes his time and attention to activities that push the movement forward.

Because we had a limited amount of time to talk, we didn't have time to cover all of the questions that I was eager to ask, but Ben was kind enough to share some written responses.  Find those on the episode webpage and enjoy this conversation between myself and Ben!

No one plans to start a tourism business at the outset of a pandemic, but that's what happened to Elizabeth, founder of HiBnb, a cannabis friendly accommodation and event company. Through determination and hard work, Elizabeth navigated through the uncertainty. Now that people are traveling again, the business is ready with a growing number of accommodations and events all over North America, Jamaica, South Africa, Mexico and more. Join me as I speak with Elizabeth about HiBnb, how she celebrates the little wins, her joie de vivre + her love of cannabis that keeps her going every day and a lot more.

Inspired by podcast guest, Monica Lo, author of The Weed Gummies Cookbook, she's also the creator behind Sous Weed, a website showcasing beautiful infused cuisine. There were so many incredible dishes on the site but these croquettes stood out. Using easy to find seasonal vegetables, cheese and a crispy breading, they hit all the right notes. As a bonus, I also tried her Garlic Aioli that serves as a simple dressing that elevates a dish without having to infuse an entire meal. 

Get the croquettes and garlic aoli recipe on the website.

Is there anything more comforting than a hot bowl of macaroni and cheese. When made from scratch and infused, it becomes the ultimate warm meal for a chilly day.

In this Faces of Cannabis interview I sit down with my good friend Green Beard, or GB to those of us lucky enough to know him. GB and I met when we were both part of the High on Homegrown podcast, and over the last few years he's become one of my favourite people in the cannabis community.

When we recorded this conversation in 2022, GB was living in Ireland, where cannabis was (and still is) illegal for anything outside a very narrow medical program. Growing a single plant could get you a criminal record and your name in the newspaper. GB grew anyway, worked to break the stigma alongside Ireland's activist community and still found time to test every bit of grow folklore he came across on his own plants.
