74. No Vet Alone and the PTSD Crisis

Alex and Donnell talk with John Wordin, founder of No Vet Alone, an organization that supports veterans dealing with mental health issues. Wordin tells us how his history as a professional cycler led him to No Vet Alone and how cannabis plays a role in his organization. Wordin has partnered with Mario Guzman (Sherbinski) to identify which strains help specific mental health issues. No Vet Alone claims that 62% of current participants have reduced or eliminated prescription drug use.
