    420 Episode: Better Late Than Never

    Jake, Sima, and Jessie celebrate 4/20 the only way they know how: with laughs, lore, and a little reality-check. They break down where “420” actually came from, how the term spread through pop culture, and why the holiday has turned into everything from a community hang to a full-on cannabis shopping day. They also recap the 4/20 vibes at Kron, share their own favorite ways to enjoy the day, and sprinkle in some much-needed harm reduction: dosing smart, keeping products away from kids/pets, and making a plan that doesn’t involve driving impaired.

    Weed Is Safer Than

    Jake, Sima, and Jessie go down a wildly specific rabbit hole of “safer than” comparisons after seeing a viral post claiming cannabis is safer than ants (yes, really). From there, the conversation turns into a bigger reality-check on risk: what “safety” actually means, why the CDC doesn’t even track cannabis deaths the way it tracks other substances, and how government messaging (including the DEA fact sheet) can lean more toward fear than education.   They also compare cannabis to alcohol (and the very real harm numbers tied to drinking), talk about shifting cultural use trends, and get into how people interpret stats online, what’s legit, what’s context-dependent, and what’s just engagement bait. Expect humor, skepticism, and plenty of “show me the source.”   Educational discussion only. Not medical or legal advice.

    Pot For Potholes & Driving High

    Jake, Sima, and Jessie zoom in on Tennessee’s latest round of cannabis chatter, including the headline-grabbing idea of “Pots for Potholes” (using cannabis tax revenue for roads and infrastructure). They unpack what’s actually in the proposed bills, where the money would go, and why TN still feels behind neighboring states that are already rolling out medical programs. Along the way they get into the messiness of regulation: “legal vs illegal” thresholds, licensing barriers, taxes, and the difference between public safety and policy theater. They also hit the real-world implications people argue about most: THC and driving, dose and impairment, why edibles keep showing up in ER headlines, and how government messaging (and agencies like the DEA) can shape public perception more than actual education. Practical, opinionated, and very Tennessee. Educational discussion only. Not legal or medical advice. Follow local laws and use responsibly.

    The Politics of Weed (and the Fun Part Too)

    Jake, Sima, and Jessie get into the messy reality of cannabis policy, starting with their trip to Hemp Day on the Hill at the Tennessee State Capitol. They talk through what it’s like meeting with legislators face-to-face, why access and licensing are still complicated in TN, and how money, lobbying, and taxes shape what gets passed (and what mysteriously dies). They also zoom out on the state-by-state patchwork, how “public nuisance” rules can be used against cannabis users, and why clear regulation and real education matter more than stigma. And because this is still The Kronic Podcast, they also share the fun side: the things they actually like to do when they’re high and why cannabis can be part of a balanced life, not a moral panic.

    Holistic Vet: CBD For Pets with Dr. Eva DeCozio

    Jake, Sima, and Jessie sit down with Dr. Eva DeCozio, a holistic veterinarian, for an honest, practical conversation about whole-animal care and where cannabis fits (and where it absolutely doesn’t) in the pet world. Dr. Eva breaks down what “holistic” really means in practice: treating the full picture of an animal’s health, not just symptoms. They dig into CBD for pets, product quality and labels, the legal gray areas that affect what vets can recommend, and why THC is a hard no for animals. The episode also covers the endocannabinoid system, real-life use cases pet owners ask about, and the harm-reduction basics every household should know (especially around storage and accidental ingestion).   Educational discussion only. Not veterinary or medical advice. Always consult a licensed veterinarian for your pet’s care, and follow local laws.   Disclaimer: The Kronic Podcast is for informational and entertainment purposes only.

    Cite Your Sources: The DEA’s Weed Claims

    Jake, Sima, and Jessie take on the government’s own DEA “Drug Facts” sheet on marijuana and put it under a microscope. They break down what’s accurate, what’s vague, and what feels like outdated stigma dressed up as “education,” including claims about where cannabis comes from, addiction and withdrawal, and how the messaging shapes public opinion. The crew also digs into the wild inconsistency of scheduling (why whole-plant cannabis is treated differently than synthetic THC like Marinol), plus real-world conversations around PTSD, sleep, inflammation, and harm reduction. It’s a mix of laughs, frustration, and “okay but cite your sources.”   Educational discussion only. Not medical or legal advice.

    Weed & Real Estate

    Jake, Sima, and Jessie sit down with real estate pro Karen Russell to talk cannabis and the housing market. They dig into what buyers actually think about dispensaries nearby, how a former grow house can affect a listing, and how agents handle stigma, odor, and disclosures. Practical, real-world insight on how legalization is reshaping where people live, buy, and invest.   Educational discussion only.

    Cannabis & Mental Health

    Jake, Sima, and Jessie are back with a real one: cannabis and mental health. They dig into what the endocannabinoid system actually does (CB1 vs. CB2), why cannabis can feel like a mood stabilizer for some people, and where the risks show up, especially with heavy use at younger ages. The conversation moves through anxiety, depression, sleep, PTSD, and the stigma that keeps people from talking honestly, while also calling out how confusing regulation has become with the hemp vs. marijuana gray zone. It’s a mix of science, lived experience, and common-sense harm reduction for anyone trying to use the plant intentionally instead of letting it use them. Educational discussion only, not medical advice. If you’re struggling, please seek support from a qualified professional.
