82 | Guy Rocourt, Papa & Barkley
Papa & Barkley has established a niche as a provider of high-quality CBD- and THC-based products. Co-founder, President and Chief Product Officer Guy Rocourt has been a driving force in this emergence. While he has a hand in many aspects of the business, his greatest passion may be as an advocate for the plant. Listen to this episode for insights from Guy into how:
Cannabis is personalized medicine, with pretty much with zero downside compared to pharma.There's so much misinformation due to the artificial separation of "hemp CBD" versus "cannabis CBD"All cannabis is about wellness. Papa & Barkley is not in the topicals category, or the edibles category or the tincture category. They are in the cannabis category.Before the late 1800s we actually had much more cannabis in our diet simply because as a weed, it was mixed into foodstuffs. It was available and used as medicine.Papa & Barley make solventless medicines as close to a whole plant thing as possible.Guy's chance meeting with Montel Williams set him on the road to becoming a cannabis grower and entrepreneur

Extreme High Quality Pod Casting
Tom’s podcasts present very high production values, to start with. But that’s just the beginning. He goes so deep on research and preparation. His questions are skillfully paced, intelligent, and friendly, yet he is evidently unafraid of dipping into serious skepticism; he is never not inquisitive.
As we all know, for a long time, cannabis was a problem for the U.S. I find in Tom’s work a lively analysis of many points of view along a spectrum of its history: there is acceptance, refusal, promotion—but the approach is always reasonable and wide open to the big change in awareness we are seeing in society.
It’s also always a true conversation. There is give and take, thoughtful pausing, humorous asides. Nothing drags, not even for a moment. That’s how well prepped everything is. These conversations are sometimes personal and always
personable. The whole is deeply impressive.
An Amazing Podcast
From consumers, to clinicians, to entrepreneurs, or anyone who has a medicinal interest in cannabis, this podcast is for you. The value of this podcast is so much more than anyone could ask for. The experts who share the most up-to-date science and research, continue to illustrate what has already been known for thousands of years. The medicinal value of cannabis has been swept under the rug for far too long now, and Kannaboom is here to change that narrative. Here’s to a powerful movement!
