    Intro to Cannabis World History

    In this episode, we explore the fascinating global journey of cannabis—from its ancient medicinal use in China and the Middle East to its role in medieval Europe and early American industry. We trace its transformation from a sacred and healing plant to a criminalized substance during the 20th century, driven by politics, propaganda, and racial bias. Now, as cannabis re-emerges in the mainstream through legalization and innovation, we ask: what does the future hold for this powerful and controversial plant? Terpene Talk is focused on Ocimene. While a secondary terpene, it packs a punch! It contains decongestant properties and a mood booster. Learn more by listening. Let us know what you think.

    The Schedule of Controlled Substances

    Join us for a deep dive into the five categories of controlled substances, highlighting the fact that cannabis remains a Schedule 1 drug alongside heroin and LSD, despite its medical benefits—while cocaine is classified as Schedule 2 and the sleep aid Ambien as Schedule 4. We’ll also explore the economic impact of tobacco and alcohol on healthcare, even though neither is included in any drug schedule. Plus, it's terpene time! Learn about humulene and its potential medical benefits, including anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and even anti-cancer properties.

    Flower Power!

    In episode 4, "Flower Power," we dive into the quick onset effects of inhaled cannabis, comparing it with the slower impacts of edibles and drinks. We’ll explore how cannabis interacts with common medications, referencing insights from Drugs.com, and share personal experiences with CBN’s relaxing effects—like a cozy hug for the mind and body. If you’ve ever gone too far, we’ll reveal why CBD can help balance things out and share practical tips for taming the munchies. Lastly, we’ll look at how cannabis can support mental focus and sustained energy when used mindfully. We’re also spotlighting Pinene as the “terpene of the day.” Known for its fresh, piney aroma, Pinene not only offers anti-inflammatory and bronchodilator effects but can also enhance alertness and focus. We'll discuss how Pinene’s unique properties can elevate the cannabis experience by balancing relaxation with mental clarity, making it a great choice for those looking to stay sharp and energized.
