We welcome craft cannabis grower and breeder OG Naj from Wallonia, the French speaking part of Belgium. He tells us all about his personal and professional journey in the cannabis world, the risks he’s running and his hopes for the future. In the news segment we discuss the plans of the new German government to legalize adult use cannabis, spectacular progress on Malta, the Jamaican governments’ Good Ganja Sense campaign, the return of the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers and new developments in the curious case of Checkpoint in Terneuzen, once the biggest cannabis coffeeshop in the world. Derrick reads a Moroccan folktale from The Book of Grass (1967) by George Andrews and Simon Vinkenoog and there are Wise Words from Martin Luther King.
