Informative Minnesota Cannabis News Podcast

This is my go-to source for Minnesota cannabis news, I also enjoy the interviews because they are informative and the product tasting segments are hilarious thanks to Marcus! John provides great perspective and I love seeing Shana step into the role of co-host. This podcast is going to become a force to be reckoned with in 2024 and beyond!
