This week on Cannabis Man, host Don Kleppin opens up about his May the 4th traditions, the growing cultural impact of Star Wars Day, and a personal reflection on a late friend who shared the same birthday. Don responds to listener mail with a passionate take on the phrase “do your own research” and the importance of scientific consensus.

In product reviews, Don shares his thoughts on gummies from Hometown Hero and Flower Union, and Brawler Blunts from Tyson 2.0.
