  • Many of the topics & guests are good but the host is often comparing everything to themselves which is self centered and annoying to tolerate in order to hopefully here some good content. Sometimes the guests are as self serving or more & the whole episode is just the two of them talking about how their lives are so similar & how much they relate... it gets old.

  • Nerdilicious!!!

    A Master Class in every episode. A kickstart to cannabinoid curiosity that never wains. Straight from the scientists’ mouth so we know the language is careful and deliberate. And the new juicy tidbits to ponder!!! My heart is leaping just remembering the last show! Episode 65! Yes…they actually made Farm Bill issues exciting and hopeful and passionate and they gave us real science to research. Ohhhh the rabbit holes to choose;)
