Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Where Insight Meets Cannabis: Melanie Wentzel's Global Impact
Q: How does Melanie view education's role in changing cannabis adoption in Australia?
She believes education is essential to move cannabis into the standard medical toolkit, emphasizing need for doctor education, compliant patient information, and collaboration between industry and healthcare to overcome regulatory and perceptual barriers.
Episode 30: Is All Cannabis Use Medical Use? Luna Stower on Cannabis, the ECS, and the Patient Left Behind
Q: How do you see the relationship between legacy knowledge and formal medical training evolving?
They are complementary, not competing. Oral traditions and clinical data should work together, bringing both experiential insight and evidence to the table so patients receive safe, effective care informed by both worlds.
Episode 30: Is All Cannabis Use Medical Use? Luna Stower on Cannabis, the ECS, and the Patient Left Behind
Q: Why is education so central to advancing medical cannabis, in your view?
Education is the lever that moves policy, clinical practice, and patient outcomes. Without clear, evidence-based information, doctors fear gatekeeping, patients fear misdiagnosis, and the system stalls. Education should be practical, credible, and integrated into curricula and training.
Episode 30: Is All Cannabis Use Medical Use? Luna Stower on Cannabis, the ECS, and the Patient Left Behind
Q: What changes have you seen in the vape and cannabis space over the last decade?
Vapes provide discreet, private access and precise dosing, particularly helpful for those with mobility issues or who can't smoke. They're not a replacement for all methods, but a tool in a larger toolkit that supports consistent dosing and medical convenience.
Episode 30: Is All Cannabis Use Medical Use? Luna Stower on Cannabis, the ECS, and the Patient Left Behind
Q: Could you start by telling us a little about yourself and the work you're doing today?
I'm Luna Stower, a Bay Area-based freelancer focused on education-based advocacy in cannabis, with a history at Jetty Extracts and Icefire. I combine policy work, education, and practical guidance to help communities understand plant therapies and push for regulatory reform.
