“Ten years ago when I started it was Colorado and Washington and everyone was like, that's a crazy wild west experiment, this is never gonna happen! If all of this could be made up to get to the point where we are in the past 10 years, the next wave of advocacy and people really fighting for access for the next 10 years could change it all over again.” - Jane West

In today’s episode, we dive into the complex history of cannabis legalization and its ongoing impact on racial justice. We sit down with Professor Akwasi Owusu-Bempah and cannabis entrepreneur Tahira Rehmatullah, co-authors of Waiting to Inhale, to explore the failures of the War on Drugs, the inequities in cannabis-related arrests, and how the industry can move toward social justice. Tune in to understand how cannabis can right past wrongs and create a more just future.
“If we’re recognizing that prohibition is a failed policy, why is it that we would still leave the individuals who were criminalized and our society to deal with the negative ramifications or effects of that prohibition? It makes no sense, right? We’ve recognized it’s a failure. We’re looking to move on. Let’s bring the people who are negatively harmed along with us.”

“I had flown my mom out to tinker with me in the kitchen kind of as a bonding experience. That's how I discovered that her beginner's dose is my maximum dose. Just after a meal of infused noodles, and I think we had 25 milligrams each, I passed out on the couch and she was energized, blasting music and deep cleaning my kitchen.” - Monica Lo

“There's a knock on the door and we're like, oh sh*t, we're gonna get jumped. Okay, so we open the door. And I'll tell you, the security guard. He definitely did not think that what was going to be behind this door was 20 women in their 30s and 40s handing around two apple pipes. He just stood there for a minute just processing what he was looking at.” - Jane West

We’re thrilled to kick off a 3-part series about cooking with cannabis, starring the season’s favorite fruit—apples! Chefs Christina Wong, Amanda Jackson, Michellee Fox and Jenn Felmley share expert tips on infusing autumn-inspired dishes with weed. In this episode, we’ll cover the basics, from how much THC or CBD to use in your recipes to the essential process of decarboxylating (or “decarbing”) cannabis. Plus, Chef Christina Wong walks us through her delicious infused apple cider recipe. Whether you're a seasoned chef or home cook, this episode is packed with practical tips—plus, a very special giveaway announcement!
“This is a whole fruit recipe. We're not buying Apple juice and boiling it or buying apple cider. We're going to make it from scratch. So it uses about five to six apples and you slice them into small chunks. I like to leave the peels honestly because there's good vitamins and stuff in there.” - Christina Wong

We’ve reached the final episode in our “good weed” series, and it's all about energizing strains! These THC-forward strains provide focused energy and creativity, making them perfect for social outings, brainstorming sessions, or even cutting back on coffee. Tune in to discover why strains like Sour Diesel and XJ-13 can be great alternatives to alcohol, and why starting slow is key to finding the right effects for you.
“What is the experience like when you smoke it? Is it harsh? Are you coughing or is it a smooth experience where you really taste the flavors? It’s a smooth hit. High terpenes are going to make the experience kind of just last a little longer. Also, is there a resin ring around your joint while you’re smoking it? Does it go out a lot while you’re smoking it? Do you constantly have to relight it or is it just kind of lit the whole time? These are just kind of little qualifying things that I look for when I’m determining what’s good weed and what I want to put out there.” - Adriana Carlile
