The Politics of Weed (and the Fun Part Too)

from The Kronic Podcast · host Jake, Sima & Jessie

Jake, Sima, and Jessie get into the messy reality of cannabis policy, starting with their trip to Hemp Day on the Hill at the Tennessee State Capitol. They talk through what it’s like meeting with legislators face-to-face, why access and licensing are still complicated in TN, and how money, lobbying, and taxes shape what gets passed (and what mysteriously dies). They also zoom out on the state-by-state patchwork, how “public nuisance” rules can be used against cannabis users, and why clear regulation and real education matter more than stigma. And because this is still The Kronic Podcast, they also share the fun side: the things they actually like to do when they’re high and why cannabis can be part of a balanced life, not a moral panic.
