Is Cannabis Really Safe? The Link Between Potency, Psychosis, and Violence
Explore the unsettling reality of high-potency cannabis and its link to psychosis, violent crime, and legal controversy.
In this episode of Freud and Felons, Dr. Yalda Safai dives deep into cases where marijuana use led to psychotic breaks and tragic outcomes, highlighting how today's concentrated THC products differ dramatically from those of the past.
Learn how THC hijacks key brain systems, why certain groups—like teens and those with a family history of schizophrenia—are at greater risk, and why both the legal system and society need to reconsider their approach to cannabis regulation and education.

03:12 Effects of high-potency marijuana
08:29 THC's impact on brain function
10:08 Impacts of high THC products

Freud and Felons is not another true crime podcast - it's a journey into the psychology of devious human behavior. I'm Yalda Safai, a psychiatrist who works with inmates, sits through courtrooms, and, just like you, am fascinated by a good true crime story. Instead of "How", let's dive into the "Why" behind the crimes.
Why do upstanding citizens just snap one day and murder their spouses?
Why did Ted Bundy have so many fans?
What does the word psychopath truly mean?
Most importantly, why are YOU so obsessed with a good crime story?
