Podcasts about Legalization

Where are you listening from?What happens when a Vancouver budtender returns to Australia with a new language for cannabis and a mission to make it make sense? We sit down with Paul O'Donoghue, host of the Give and Toke podcast, to unpack the real-world tradeoffs between Canada's fast-track legalization and Australia's guarded medical model. From legacy growers and craft quality to overpackaging, dry flower, and clunky distribution, Paul shares how early missteps in Canada created friction and how direct delivery, farm-gate models, and patient-centered thinking can rebuild trust.Paul's story moves from experimental use to intentional, doctor-guided consumption. He tracks effects, speaks in terpenes, and treats cannabis like a tool, not a trend. Along the way, he spotlights a stubborn barrier holding Australia back: roadside drug testing that punishes presence instead of impairment. It's the kind of policy that keeps people choosing alcohol over a measured gummy, even when they want a healthier option. We also talk stigma, why humility beats hot takes, and how corporate and craft can coexist if we protect room for small producers to innovate while larger operators stabilize access.There's humor too. Paul's go-to line for turning down drinks (“It makes me sad”) is both disarming and honest. Beyond the laughs, the throughline is clear: better laws, better access, and better conversations. We explore how smart accessories make home use calmer and more discreet, why patient rights matter, and what it takes to bring policymakers, clinicians, and community into the same room.If you're curious about how legalization really lands in people's lives and what needs to change next, press play, share this with a friend, and tell us your take.

Cole is joined by recurring guest Phil to break down Part 1 of ColeMemo.com's overview of Illinois' 2025 annual cannabis report, a required compilation of updates from state agencies covering licensing, enforcement, public health, and revenue. They discuss IDFPR reporting that 93 dispensaries received operational licenses, the agency's description of Metrc entering its post-launch phase, and a discrepancy in reported craft grow license counts across state reports and press releases. Most of the conversation focuses on the Illinois State Police section, including Chicago's arrest heat map, the first year-over-year increase in Cannabis Control Act arrests since legalization, and how hemp and THCA products have complicated prosecutions. Cole and Phil also discuss ISP's push for phlebotomy training to speed up DUI cannabis blood draws, K9 policy changes, gaps in expungement tracking, and what the data suggests about cannabis-related criminal enforcement continuing in Illinois despite legalization.

What if cannabis education focused on benefits, not fear?Daniel Bear, PhD returns to break down the cannabis industry THC obsession, Canada's cannabis tax imbalance, and why mindful consumption—not prohibition—is the future of cannabis policy. Daniel tackles falling prices, rising taxes, disappearing profit margins, and the ongoing threat of the illicit market. He explores how high-THC marketing pressures, youth protection, and consumer education can seem to be in conflict. Everyone, except governments, hat taxes, but Daniel believes smarter tax policies could stabilize the market without compromising safety. Daniel also unveils an exciting new 'project: HERBy, the Helpful Education for Responsible Benefit-maximization tool. AI can be your therapist, or your research assistant, so why not a mindful cannabis consumption chatbot. This tool is built on groundbreaking research from his recent peer-reviewed study, "Harm reduction isn't enough: Introducing the concept of Mindful Consumption and Benefit Maximization (MCBM)," published in the International Journal of Drug Policy. Listen now to learn whether Canada is still on the right path—and what industry, government, and consumers must do next to ensure legalization succeeds for everyone.HERBy Chatbot - websiteDaniel Bear PhD - LinkedIn-responsum.caTranscripts, papers and so much more at: reefermed.ca

Text and Be HeardA holiday sunrise, a warm ocean breeze, and a conversation that cuts to the bone of recovery. Jay P. joins us to explore why quitting the bet can be tougher than quitting the bottle, and how the serenity prayer became a daily operating system for real peace of mind. We open with a simple, powerful frame: train your brain toward natural dopamine, serotonin, endorphins, and oxytocin so you're not hunting relief in places designed to take more than they give.Jay's story maps a pattern many “double winners” recognize. Alcohol numbs, but gambling seduces with hope—the next card, the next line, the next live bet to make it all back. That loop weaponizes uncertainty. We unpack the allure of the bailout win and why a big score often makes the problem worse by hardwiring belief in a system you can't beat. We also tackle the modern sports betting machine: odds baked into broadcasts, ads that never let up, and kids absorbing it all from the couch. Legalization brings access and harm, yet also funding streams for hotlines and treatment.The theme that anchors everything is peace. Holidays magnify triggers, but with honest tools—meetings, community, and a clear boundary around the “first”—calm becomes possible. We trade frantic fixes for simple practices: work hard at what matters, laugh daily, love without keeping score, and choose routines that reward presence over rush. If you're feeling the pull from your screen or your old stories, this conversation offers a steady hand and a sane plan. If it resonates, share it with someone who needs a lifeline, hit follow, and leave a review to help others find the show.Support the showRecovery is Beautiful.

What if cannabis education focused on benefits, not fear?Cannabis researcher Daniel Bear, PhD returns to Reefer Medness to introduce Mindful Consumption & Benefit Maximization (MCBM). MCDM is a framework that helps people understand why they use cannabis, what they want from the experience, and how to reduce risks while improving outcomes.We explore why prohibition-era messaging failed, the problems with today's ultra-high-THC products, and how balanced cannabinoids may offer safer, more enjoyable experiences. The conversation also dives into Canada's legal cannabis market—from retail oversaturation to the tension between public health and commercialization—plus what other countries are doing differently.Listen now to learn how mindful cannabis consumption could reshape education, policy, and personal use.Transcripts, papers and so much more at: reefermed.ca

June 2025 marks a decade since the U.S. Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage. The landmark 5-4 ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges resolved a long-standing national debate and brought together a conflicting patchwork of state laws. Eight months before the SCOTUS decision, the Republican-dominated state of Arizona legalized same sex marriages, though the road to get there was rocky. This week on The Gaggle, a politics podcast by The Arizona Republic and azcentral.com, host Mary Jo Pitzl is joined by Republic editor Shaun McKinnon and LGBTQ+ rights advocate Sheila Kloefkorn to look back at the events that led to Arizona in 2014 joining the states that legally recognize gay marriage, and cast forward on what challenges remain.
