What's next for cannabis, THC and Delta-8 in Tennessee?
from This Is Nashville · host WPLN News - Nashville Public Radio
Hemp and CBD are legal in Tennessee but marijuana (medical and recreationional) is not. So where does this leave Delta-8? A Tennessee lawmaker proposed a bill this legislatative session that would have regulated and taxed Delta-8 products, but the bill didn't make it out of committee. Meanwhile, stores selling Delta-8, CBD and hemp products are cropping up across the state, and there's even a CBD restaurant and bar that's coming to Nashville. Today we talk to people who make their living in the hemp and CBD industries about the plant, cannabis stigma and proposed regulations. First up, @ Us! Host Khalil Ekulona and digital lead Anna Gallegos-Cannon respond to listeners’ tweets on Nashville SC, WPLN's reporting series on rising housing prices and a future episode about abortion. Guests: Cecliy Friday, lobbyist, executive director of the Tennessee Cannabis Coalition and founder of the Southern Hemp Expo Frederick Cawthon, president of Hemp Alliance Of Tennessee Derek Besenius, owner of LabCanna Drea Groeschel-Guinness, president of NuSachi Hemp J. Mitchell, expert in hemp cultivation and manufacturing Special thanks to: Mark Montgomery, Blaise Gainey, and Tonya Lewis for their help with this show.
