  • 264. The Haunting History of Cannabis: Why the War on Drugs Failed + Building a Better Future

    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.”

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

  • 261. Cannabis Cooking 101: Bite into Fall Flavors

    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

  • 259. Buzzy Strains to Keep You Energized, Part 4

    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

     Part two of our “good weed” series is here, and we’re focusing on the best strains for relaxation! Whether you’re looking to unwind after a hectic day or need help falling asleep, we’ve got you covered. In this episode, we explore two essential relaxing strains—one with high THC and one with high CBD—to help you find the perfect match for your relaxation needs. Tune in to learn all about the effects, benefits, and tips for using these calming strains. 

    “What is good weed? I know it sounds like a little bit of a quip here, but good weed is weed that makes you feel good. And to me that means a number of things. It can make you feel those typical euphoric high feelings that people adore or it could also give you therapeutic relief for symptoms of illnesses or side effects from medications.”

  • 256. What Is “Good Weed”? A Resource for Women, Part 1

    Today’s episode begins a 4-part series exploring what “good weed” truly means - for women. We’re challenging the outdated idea that “good weed” is defined by a group of guys hanging out in a smoky room. Instead, we’re redefining it to support the diverse needs of women—whether it’s for stress relief, a creative spark, or a balanced, enjoyable high. Stay tuned for the rest of the series, where we’ll share the best cannabis strains to match how you want to feel.

    “At the end of the day, what good weed is for you is going to differ from what good weed is for me. What’s good for those high-time stoner bros who have declared that weed to be the chronic, the fire, the dopest shit around, it’s not my chronic, bro. I like something that has less of a THC effect, something that’s more mind windy, get lost in a creative process, or that’s really social and chatty is more fun to me than just checking out and going away.”
