In this week’s episode of High on Home Grown, we’re covering a mix of bizarre stories, serious research, and big political signals from around the world:
Macky starts with a story that’s raised more than a few eyebrows, a middle-class couple caught running a highly organised grow, claiming it was all to fund their daughter’s university education. A case that sparks debate about motive, punishment, and how society views these crimes.
Billy brings one of the strangest grow stories we’ve seen in a while, after plants were discovered growing underneath the M1 motorway in Northamptonshire. A reminder that people will grow just about anywhere… even under Britain’s busiest roads.
Dr. Margaret shifts gears to New Zealand, where the government is looking to cut red tape in an effort to boost its domestic hemp industry. A potentially big move for farmers and manufacturers if it plays out as planned.
John covers new research suggesting that legal access is linked to reduced suicide rates among older adults — a serious and important finding that adds weight to ongoing reform debates.
And finally, we look at growing signals from the US as Trump prepares to reschedule cannabis to Schedule III, a move that could reshape research, medicine, and the wider industry almost overnight.
Another packed episode full of strange locations, policy shifts, and research that keeps the conversation moving forward.
