How to Do the Pot

Windy Borman, the Colorado based director of the documentary film Mary Janes: The Women of Weed, shares her first time story with us today. Windy had some trepidation about cannabis from an early age, but was inspired by her film to give it a try. Luckily, she had a few “cannabis fairy godmothers” to help guide her experience. Tune in to hear some ways to make your first time buying legal weed feel warm, inviting, and empowering — just like Windy’s did.

In today’s episode, we hear from women about the shame they’ve internalized around their cannabis consumption — even though it has improved their well-being tremendously. Listening to stories like this, or sharing your own, helps chip away at the decades-old social perception and stigma surrounding weed and the people who consume it. Today, five states have the choice to make adult-use cannabis consumption legal, which would be an incredible step towards eradicating the stigma. We hope you enjoy this episode and feel inspired to use your voice (or your vote!) to support the future of cannabis.

Thank you to our guests Christine De La Rosa, Ariana Newton, Dr. June Chin, Kia Baker and Kelsey Ledezma.

Grab your favorite candy, your spookiest bud, and a pair of headphones, because hallo-weed is officially one week away. But before you cozy up with a THC-forward strain, let us remind you about the eeriest weed word there is: PARANOIA. With too much THC in your system, paranoia might strike, turning the neighborhood kids on a quest for candy corn into ominous figures lurking outside your front door… 👻 This is the perfect episode to get you into the spooky spirit, and of course we’ll leave you with some tips to ensure your night is filled with more treats than tricks.

Thank you to our guests Dr. Jessica Knox, Dr. June Chin and Christine De La Rosa.

If you’ve been tuning in each week for our “What is Good Weed for Women?” series, you’ve heard us talk about relaxing strains, balanced strains, and Landrace strains.

Press play to hear why Sour Diesel and XJ-13 make good subs for alcohol, and why we suggest starting slow.

On today’s show, we’ll talk about the original cannabis plants that have existed for thousands of years, called Landrace strains. We’ll reveal the secret history behind 5 of the best-known Landrace strains: Acapulco Gold, Durban Poison, Lamb’s Bread, Thai and Afghani, and hear from cannabis experts about what makes them so special. You’ll also discover that these original strains have helped create thousands of new hybrids that are consumed today, which is pretty incredible if you ask us.

Thank you to our guests Lana Van Brunt, Haley Dineen, Sandra Guynes, Nichole Graf and Kim Reyes.
