I'd love if we could be part of normalizing cannabis use and also stand up for the peoplewho use cannabis.
It's personal.
I'm Ross Rebagliati and this is the PoTcast.
You may be familiar with Ross Rebagliati's epic story of becoming the first to win anOlympic gold medal in snowboarding.
Ross Rebagliati, Canada!

Only to have it revoked after he tested positive for cannabis.
You might remember him rubbing shoulders with celebrities and making high profile TVappearances after his medal was reinstated.
welcome Ross Reblayati.
Within 24 hours I was in Burbank, California doing the Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
It was just like a gong show of me becoming a celebrity and hanging out with celebritiesand flying around in private jets to Aspen and...

smoking weed with the Rolling Stones backstage before their concerts and just doingunreal, unbelievable thing.
this episode of the podcast, we're putting our host Ross in the hot seat to address thequestion on everybody's mind.
Was he able to turn all that attention into piles of green gold?
(01:12):
I kind of had the premonition at the time, like if this ever goes legal, this couldpotentially be an opportunity for me.
We'll find out what's happening with the Ross's Gold brand and we'll hear from some of hiscollaborators what it takes to survive in the high pressure cannabis industry.
Ross is a legend in his own right.
He's a cannabis activist.
He's been doing it a long time and it felt good to partner with someone like Ross just toget some brand awareness for us and then obviously help promote his brand as well.
(01:40):
We got connected through another person and Ross wanted to launch Ross's Gold.
First of all, was like, wow, it rolled perfectly.
Are you kidding me?
It turns out there might be a few similarities between competing in extreme sports andplaying this game called cannabis.
