    Hello and Welcome back to Exploring Cannabis and Exercise. The podcast where the anecdotes meet the data.  This week I am so excited to highlight Vanessa Stallsmith Shapiro who is a doctoral candidate at Colorado State University and currently seeking participants for her dissertation exploring how cannabis influences the experience of physical activity in people who use cannabis regularly but are not very active.

    The Sweden Episode with Smoke Tower

    This week I am finally sharing a much over-do episode I recorded with Alex and Penny from Smoke Tower when I visited Sweden last summer. This store in the outskirts of Stockholm is the first headshop in Sweden - tirelessly working on changing the culture, educating the public, and providing cannabis to people. We talk about the difference between Swedish and American cannabis culture, Swedish sport, and you’ll even learn how to say the word “stoner” in Swedish. So if you're like me and thinking about bailing the US for another country, this is a great episode for you.  Och - om någon i Sverige lyssnar på min pod och känner till något jobb innom, mitt fält, så försöker jag lära mig svenska för att kunna söka jobb. https://smoketower.com/  @smoketower https://www.instagram.com/smoketowerofficial/  Support the show To learn more about Dr. Ogle, visit https://www.whitneyogle.com If you’d like to be guest, have any guest ideas, or have any questions about cannabis and exercise you’d like me to talk about, send me a DM on Instagram @exploringcannabisandexercise or email me at cannabisandexercise@gmail.com.

    CBD Dosages in Research vs. Public with Dr. Laura Stewart

    Hello and welcome back to exploring cannabis and exercise! The podcast where the anecdotes meet the data. This week I am so excited to share my conversation with Dr. Laura Stewart - professor in the department of Kinesiology, Nutrition, & Dietetics at University of Northern Colorado. I met Laura at the ACSM Rocky Mountain meeting in Spring of 2021 where we gave two out of the three talks that day about cannabis and exercise and saw her again at the Cannabis Research Conference last summer in Denver.  If you go back to Episode 4 with Jonny Lisano, you’ll hear a little more about other cannabis and exercise research she’s been up to because Jonny was one of her graduate students! Her lab has since done more research on CBD and exercise, for example this study published in 2023 and this article from 2024.  One of the big things we talk about in this episode is the difference between research doses of CBD vs. commercially available doses of CBD. As you’ll hear in this episode, Dr. Stewart is smart, accomplished, cool and just as excited about sharing cannabis and exercise research with the public as I am.  As always, hope you enjoy this episode and make good choices out there.  Support the show To learn more about Dr. Ogle, visit https://www.whitneyogle.com If you’d like to be guest, have any guest ideas, or have any questions about cannabis and exercise you’d like me to talk about, send me a DM on Instagram @exploringcannabisandexercise or email me at cannabisandexercise@gmail.com.

    Texas, Marines, & Creativity with Jay from Lifting Lifted

    Hello and welcome back to exploring cannabis and exercise! The podcast where the anecdotes meet the data. This week I’m happy to share my conversation with Jay from @liftinglifted on Instagram. We connected on Instagram because he makes great shirts for fit stoners to wear to the gym.  In this episode we talk about his experiences going from being a Marine to learning about cannabis and exercise and using his creativity to create Lifting Lifted. We also talk about what the weed scene is like in Texas which was WILD to learn about.  If you’re hearing this before Wednesday April 3rd, 2024 and want to help fund cannabis research, you can donate to the Humboldt Institute for Interdisciplinary Marijuana Research (HIIMR) on The Day of Giving.  I’m gearing up to launch a few cannabis and exercise studies and am slowly building a team of students to help me including my newest graduate student who just got accepted to our masters program at Cal Poly Humboldt Jorge! So your donations will help us turn our ideas into reality!  In the meantime, I hope you enjoy this episode and make good choices out there!

    Brain Meets Body with Dr. Hilary Marusak

    Today I’m excited to share my conversation with Dr. Hilary Marusak who is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neurosciences at Wayne State University (WSU) School of Medicine in Detroit Michigan.  We connected a few years ago after her research team published a review paper on the effects of exercise on the endocannabinoid system.  In this episode we talk about her research related to cannabis and the endocannabinoid system in stress and brain development, the hard parts about doing cannabis-based research, and as always so many ideas for future research. You’ll also hear some great midwestern accents.

    Dupree Stopped Smoking, Used Other Tools in the Toolbox, and Went Pro with Dupree Stewart

    Hello and welcome back to exploring cannabis and exercise! The podcast where the anecdotes meet the data. Today I have a fan favorite guest Dupree Stewart back on to talk about why he decided to cut back on cannabis to help with his MMA training. If you go back to the 5th episode of the podcast, Dupree talked about how he used cannabis to help manage pain, to eat, and to recover with his training. Then, I ran into Dupree at Costco a few months ago and he said that he stopped smoking and went pro in MMA. So, obviously, I had to have him back on the show to talk about that experience.  One of the big take aways I got from this conversation is the power of having other tools in the toolbox. I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, cannabis is just one tool in the toolbox of health and sometimes you need different tools.  So this is a great listen if you’re considering taking a break from cannabis with exercise and interested in learning to use some other tools in the toolbox.  Follow Dupree on Instagram @dupreemfstewart As always, hope you enjoy and make good choices out there.

    Psychosocial Therapeutic Look at Cannabis with Dr. Ronnie Swartz

    Hello and welcome back to exploring cannabis and exercise! The podcast where the anecdotes meet the data. This week I am so excited to share my conversation with my colleague Dr. Ronnie Swartz, who is a professor of Social Work at Cal Poly Humboldt. Ronnie and I met through HIIMR and have worked on cannabis-related studies, grants, and public health education together.  Because we come from different disciplines, we have different language and windows into the world of cannabis. So in this episode you’ll have the opportunity to learn about concepts like opioid-sparing effects and drug-set-and-setting.  And like all other episodes of this podcast, we have so many more ideas for research moving forward.  As always, hope you enjoy and make good choices out there.
