A look at cannabis sales over the last year, a glimpse at the big savings of 50 states with medical cannabis access, a movement to bring closure to the exploding number of illicit sites selling cannabis, we tease about upcoming changes as we approach six years of producing the podcast. An arbitrator finds no impairment at work from cannabis. We introduce a new player in the cannabis space on Cultivar Corner. Six One Charlie was built by veterans for veterans, and we sample their Dopeamine.

I express some angst over the old cannabis still waiting for purchase, an Illicit product gets discovered on the highway, another US state legalizes and a long running cannabis buyers club gets a big fine.
