Beyond Buds People's California

Psilocybin, cannabinoids, and supply chains, oh my! This episode features Marshall Tyler, who moved from one of the top-performing cannabis edible companies in the USA to a new venture that’s exploring psychedelic science with an emphasis on set and setting. We went through Marshall’s career path, how he learned about this space, and what he wants people to know if they’re thinking about trying mindset-altering substances for the first time.

Lawyer by day, mayor by night, mayor by day... yep, you read that right. John Stephens might be the busiest man I know, but he managed to carve out a little bit of his scant time to chat about the future of cannabis. Turns out, it's all about creating new jobs that pay well in order to revitalize cities and giving opportunities for California farmers to efficiently reach their customer base. While John wasn't always a "fan of cannabis", once he saw the benefits for his constituency, things definitely shifted. In this episode, he goes all the way from his past into the future of Costa Mesa. Don't miss it.

Andrew Pham has a dream job: he's a cannabinoid scientist who spends his free time ensuring that those who receive cannabis-related DUIs are given fair trials. He also once made a whole jury laugh. Andrew is great at bringing his high-level knowledge down to our elementary understanding, but it's not all serious stuff this episode. He's got plenty of hilarious tales from the cowboy days of medical cannabis.

Free weed for veterans? It's a real thing, and the hardworking volunteers at the Veterans' Cannabis Coalition make it happen. Eric is the cofounder and CEO, so he has a lot to say--about cannabis, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, the US retreat from Afghanistan, Senate Bill 34, and how Americans can really help out our returning soldiers.
