Seven Squirrels, One JCB and an 81 Page Sunday

What starts as a harmless Sunday morning thought turns into a six-hour legislative excavation with industrial equipment.In this episode of The Never-Ending Carousel of Cannabis Nonsense, Sian explores ADHD through the only accurate metaphor available: seven squirrels, a rabbit hole, and a JCB.Between online violin lessons and cups of tea delivered by a very patient partner, a simple question about which primary legislation touches hemp and cannabis in the UK spirals into an 81-page reference document. Because why use a spade when you can perform full surgical excavation on Parliament?This episode is funny, honest and unexpectedly revealing. It explores hyperfocus, time blindness, legislative archaeology, and the strange reality that the same brain that forgets its coffee can build infrastructure no one else thought to map.ADHD is a superpower. With issues.If you’ve ever vanished into a rabbit hole and resurfaced slightly dizzy but triumphant, this one’s for you.Send us a messageSupport the showThe Never-Ending Carousel of Cannabis Nonsense is written and produced by Sian Phillips.Music by PlayDays2021, licensed royalty-free via Adobe.All opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the host and any guests, and do not necessarily reflect those of any affiliated organisations.This podcast is for informational and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute medical, regulatory, legal, or financial advice.You can find “The Never-Ending Carousel of Cannabis Nonsense” on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Amazon Music Podcasts. © 2025 Sian Phillips.
