Midwestern Suburban Sensibilities with Anthony Monaco

Hello and Welcome back to Exploring Cannabis and Exercise. The podcast where the anecdotes meet the data. This holiday season some of us will be consuming cannabis with our families while some of us will still be tiptoeing in conversations with family members about weed. So I thought this would actually be a good episode to drop this time of year that I recorded with my friend Anthony Monaco. I met Anthony when I was living in Indiana, but we actually grew up in neighboring towns in the chicago suburbs. We talk about his experience of being a leader in a straight-edge organization in high school called “Snowball”, having the talk with our parents about weed at Dave Matthews Band concerts, the luck and privilege we had & have in growing up how and where we did, and the experience of being a cannabis consumer in Indiana vs. Colorado, where he lives now. So if you need a break from your family or if you’re not around family this year, I hope this podcast keeps you company. Hope you enjoy and make good choices out there. Support the showTo learn more about Dr. Ogle, visit https://www.whitneyogle.comIf you’d like to be guest, have any guest ideas, or have any questions about cannabis and exercise you’d like me to talk about, send me a DM on Instagram @exploringcannabisandexercise  or email me at [email protected]. If you like what I'm up to and want to help me continue to make this podcast happen, you can venmo me @whitney-ogle or  https://www.buzzsprout.com/1966271/supporters/new  Host: Whitney Ogle DPT, PhDIntro Music: Haley Montowski (and producer for Season 1 - thank you Haley!)Music: "Bonfire Cauliflower" by Isaac Joel **Friendly reminder/disclaimer** I am not suggesting everyone use cannabis with exercise. Cannabis is definitely not for everyone.

Make good choices out there.
