It's Hispanic Heritage Month, and we're kicking off our fall season by discussing the connection between the Latinx community and the marijuana plant.

This episode, host Brit Smith talks to the founders of CLEO Delta-8 and CBD gummies, Andrea Berrios and Spencer Perron, about what their families in Texas and Minnesota think of the legal options of CBD and Delta-8, and how legal pot companies can do more to connect with Latinx consumers.

Andrea and Spencer also discuss their personal histories with marijuana, the generational differences in views on cannabis within their families, the importance of closing the language accessibility gap for Spanish-speaking consumers, and what new users should know as the so-called 'legal cannabinoids' of CBD and Delta-8 become popular in states like Texas with heavy Spanish-speaking populations.
