Fritz Chess extraction podcast
Shango, your podcast sets the bar for cannabis education, UNTIL,…
Fritz Chess is so inappropriately politically polarized, his wisdom is COMPLETELY in question(imho). He obviously cared more about his negative opinion towards republican politics than his love for serving patients. This attitude points to narcissism, greed, and more importantly unrighteousness.(imho).
I highly respect your hosting skills and your natural ability to keep on topic. And look forward to you squashing anymore attempts at political posturing on an “open source”, if you will, educational podcast.
Thanks again for your commitment to provide “sane” and accurate information for the cannabis enthusiasts. You’re a gift Shango Los…
