Ask Chad Grassy Logic S3 Ep33 -Monopolized Prohibition: The DEA’s Billion-Dollar Cannabis Scandal Guest: Duane Boise Summary: In this episode, I sit down with Duane Boise from MMJ, an applicant seeking approval for Schedule I cannabis research activity. He opens up about his firsthand experience navigating the federal application process—and the roadblocks and issues that surfaced along the way. From there, we shift to a discussion on Massachusetts, where a ballot initiative is aiming to re-criminalize cannabis, threatening to roll back progress made by voters and patients.
