We're talking weed again! Caroline Phillips joins us for the fourth time (even though we said third when recording) to talk about the National Cannabis Festival coming to RFK on April 18th.
Now in it's 5th year, the festival has grown from a single day with 5,000 attendees to a two day affair with a FREE policy summit on the Friday April 17th to the festival on the 18th expected to draw more than 25,000 advocates, educators, legislators, and those just looking to learn a lot more.
Yes it is a fun time, but as the push for legal cannabis moves across the US, there are more and more questions and a greater need for education!
We also hop on the phone with two industry experts....Lucas Hale from Curaleaf, a national company that is involved with every step of marijuana from growing to dispensing to distributing. And also, Warren Lemley from Peake Releaf which is a locally owned dispensary in Rockville, MD. Both were a wealth of information and both will be at the festival on April 18th!
As to the festival, this year you can expect more advocacy, more education, more music, more vendors, more food, and pretty much more of everything.
Have a listen and get all of your information on the National Cannabis Festival website!
Note to self: The cannabis industry is very punny!

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
