Just right

This podcast is awesome! The hosts are smart, articulate while being totally relatable. The show is informational, succinct and entertaining. It’s great to connect to a female cannabis community.

Entertaining, informative and fun

How To Do The Pot is one of my favorite podcasts. It’s ALWAYS educational, often fun and funny, and does so much to reduce the stigma against cannabis. It’s often short enough to listen to while running errands and I love the focus on real people, real lives, and real experiences.

AFaganmom ,

Such good guides!

I’m new to the world of legal cannabis and this podcast has helped me navigate the various types of cannabis and methods of consumption when I’m in adult use states. The short episodes are approachable, informative, and well produced. They’re like hanging out with a cool, more experienced sister or cousin who will answer whatever you want to know about weed. Love it!
