  • Making CBD / Cannabis Personalized — Genius!

    Fantastic episode with Len May! As a naturopathic doctor, I’m grateful to be able to educate people on EndoDNA and his book, Cannabis is Personal is such a great read! I agree with Montel, it's one you want to share with people. Looking forward to another episode with the two of you!

  • One Veteran to another—AMAZING

As a Veteran myself I’m honored to call you a brother in arms not only from a military standpoint but from an advocacy standpoint for cannabis. Someday, maybe you and I can lead the charge together to force the VA to allow recommendations from VA physicians to our Veterans and require that cannabis medicine be grown and produced by Veterans and not BIG PHARMA. All my best, and maybe we coul... more

  • Educator and Advocate

    The guests and information on Montel's show are pioneers and educators in the cannabis space. There is emerging research on how cannabis is indeed medicine but it is muddled by laws and red tape. Montel and the guests he has are on a mission to cut through the buracracy and misinformation out there. I continue to learn more and more about this plant medicine daily. Excellent structured discussions.
