Montel talks with Robert Hoban on this episode of Let's be Blunt. Robert was recently named a “Cannabis Law Trailblazer” by the National Law Journal and has been consistently recognized as one of “Denver's Top Cannabis Lawyers” for nearly a decade. It was his mother's struggle with pancreatic cancer in 2006 that turned Hoban's focus to the cannabis industry. From 2010-2016 he served as one of the Nation's first cannabis policy instructors at the University of Denver, where he regularly lectured regarding cannabis topics, and led a University- sanctioned research practicum concerning the efficacy of marijuana regulation. Given this academic background, he has been asked to work with the governments of more than thirty countries on crafting commercial cannabis public policy. He is a Forbes contributor, speaker and cannabis media expert. #cannabiseducation #cannabisnews #420 #cannabisheals Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMGyFAMo_k-0Q7Ui9DXCCmQ?sub_confirmation=1 Learn more about Montel Williams and his show: https://letsbebluntmontel.com/ FOLLOW MONTEL • Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/MontelWilliamsFan/ • Twitter - https://twitter.com/Montel_Williams?s=20 • Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/letsbebluntmontel/?hl=en

How They'll Use the Banking Crisis to Control YOU. Glenn TV. A few days ago the White House tweeted: “Our economy is moving in the right direction under President Biden's leadership.” Does it feel that way to you? Or does it feel like the administration is moving it in a direction that ENSLAVES people like you and me? Glenn heads to the chalkboard to show the ACTUAL state of our economy and asks: Were the collapses of Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank, and Silvergate Capital fluke closures, or were they part of a much larger, systemic problem? And will the Biden admin use the banking crisis to move us closer to nationalization and a central bank digital currency? Forbes magazine editor in chief Steve Forbes tells Glenn that central banks “must NOT have digital currencies.” It will be the ULTIMATE oppression and the end of privacy and freedom as we know it. He also slams the Fed's moves to “create money out of thin air,” warns the audience of other economic problems yet to come, and reveals the REAL way to fight inflation. https://youtu.be/YSVxRlts4qI Glenn Beck 1.05M subscribers 13,519 views Premiered 62 minutes ago #GlennBeck #SVB #SiliconValleyBank ► Click HERE to subscribe to Glenn Beck on YouTube: https://bit.ly/2UVLqhL ► Click HERE to subscribe to BlazeTV: get.blazetv.com/glenn ► Click HERE to subscribe to BlazeTV YouTube: / @blazetv ► Click HERE to sign up to Glenn's newsletter: https://www.glennbeck.com/st/Morning_...

A study published in the International Journal of Obesity found that about 65% of dieters return to their pre-dieting weight within three years, and up to 95% of people who lose weight through dieting regain it within five years. The reason why most people fail at diets is because we tend to take an all-or-nothing approach when it comes to taking on a new diet. While it may feel easy at first, it does become harder overtime as the initial motivation starts to die off. That's why in this episode of the Darin Olien show, we explore adopting a plant-based diet as we would look at starting a new habit. I'm joined by Toni Okamoto to discuss this topic of plant-based diets. We also discuss the double-edged sword of modern-day food — it's ultra cheap, ultra-convenient, and ultra quick. But it's also ultra-processed. While it may seem cheap to order fast food off the dollar menu, it comes out to a lot more money for a family to eat out than it would eat a homemade meal, especially over time. Plus, we dive into the simple, small healthy swaps we can start to make that will eventually build up over time into a new pantry and ultimately the best practices for making the switch to a plant-based diet easier.

How did an app known for viral dance videos find itself in the middle of a national security debate?

Andrew Huberman Supplements VideoThorn VitaminsAt age 11, Zack was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. The diagnosis forced him to take his health seriously from a young age. Zack took up long-distance running to maintain insulin sensitivity, but it soon blossomed into a passion. His running helped him discover the importance of eustress, the kind of optimal challenge that leads to feelings of motivation and flow, as a guiding principle for immediate success and long-term development.Zack discovered his entrepreneurial spirit while searching for a low-carb snack that didn't taste like cardboard. He created Quevos®, the world's first crisp made from egg whites, which gained notoriety through appearances on Shark Tank and in popular publications such as Delish, Forbes, Women's Health, and Popsugar. Zack took his experiences and knowledge from other areas, intent on developing his health, cognition, and productivity in other self-reinforcing and engaging ways. His goal of adopting a set of habits to support a virtuous cycle between daily performance and long-term health prompted Zack to begin exploring the world of clinically-studied nutritional supplements.Vincent grew up with a global lifestyle, living in Europe, Asia, and North America. Through his experiences, Vincent learned from a range of food cultures and health practices. In light of the demands of frequent travel, Vincent realized he had to build a set of habits that he could take with him anywhere he lived. Vincent's interest in history led him to study and contemplate the mismatch of our ancestral eating patterns with modern practices. As a result, Vincent became an early adopter of intermittent fasting. Moreover, Vincent enjoyed fasting-friendly performance support from his daily cup of coffee, which he used for energy, appetite suppression, and metabolic health benefits.Vincent and Zack became fast friends at Williams College. They quickly realized their shared passion for all facets of health and performance, and over their years at Williams, they wondered how they could invite everyone to adopt daily habits that delight and empower. They shared one Aha moment after another, and another.The duo set out to create healthy, high-impact supplement stacks. They understood the desire for more enjoyable and intuitive ways to consume supplements, such as with a cup of coffee. And they recognized the opportunity to enhance the intermittent fasting lifestyle with supplements that would further the benefits and address the challenges of fasting. The result: a cup of coffee fueled by a deliciously creamy MCT that supports metabolic health and fuels mental willpower. The beginning of Lifestacks.

This week we welcome Kevin Tulip, Primark's US President, as our guest to discuss what makes the Ireland-based purveyor of affordable fashion, home, and beauty products so remarkable and why they've chosen a slow and steady approach to global expansion.We also learn about the brand's Dublin origins, how the concept has evolved, and their decision to grow to 60 locations in the US by 2026 and 530 stores worldwide. We also learn why they've historically and rather controversially avoided a big push into e-commerce and how they view the critical role of physical stores in growth strategy. But first we dissect the week in retail news with a return to the Wobbly Unicorn Corner (and Steve's warnings of a retail disruptor apocalypse) by reviewing poor earnings news from Allbirds, Stitch Fix, and ThredUp. In far happier news, Dick's Sporting Goods and Ulta show us the money, adding to their string of strong results. In our quick hits section we review an unusual view into JC Penney's (poor) earnings, Gap's disappointing holiday season and leadership revolving door, and question whether Amazon Go might be going, going, gone. We wrap up wondering whether Bunning's (the Australia-based home improvement retailer) move into the pet category suggests a novel evolution of the format.******Past episodes mentioned:BONUS EPISODE: Suzanne Long, Chief Sustainability and Transformation Officer, Albertsons, Previews Her World Retail Congress KeynoteDot Com Bomb: The Sequel? with Special Guest Daniel McCarthy About KevinKevin Tulip is the US President of Primark, leading US operations.
