In this weeks cannabis news we discuss the following stories: Macky: Cannabis smuggler knows most of his drugs mules 'will get caught' - BBC News  Smee: Strain Review Roundup What Worth Smoking in July 2026 Dr.Margaret: Heavy marijuana smoking may increase cancer risk, researchers warn | ScienceDaily   This week we discuss a BBC report featuring a convicted cannabis smuggler who admits that many of the people recruited as drug mules are expected to get caught, raising questions about organised crime and the people being exploited to carry out these operations. Smee joins us with his latest strain roundup, highlighting what's been impressing him and what's worth checking out this month. Dr. Margaret looks at new research investigating whether heavy, long-term cannabis use may be associated with an increased risk of certain cancers, and we discuss what the study actually found, its limitations, and why it's important to look beyond the headlines. We also have an interesting conversation about the future of cannabis reform in the UK, following reports that Andy Burnham has reached out to Gary Youds and his team for advice on cannabis policy. Could this signal a serious shift in the conversation around legalisation if Burnham becomes Britain's next Prime Minister? We share our thoughts on what it could mean for patients, home growers, and the wider cannabis community. Another episode packed with news, science, politics, and cannabis conversation from around the world. 🌐 Website: https://highonhomegrown.com 💬 Discord: https://discord.gg/sqYGkF4xyQ 📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/highonhomegrown
