Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ex-DEA Agent Speaks Out on Chinese Illicit Grows | TTB Presented by Flowhub
Q: What do you think are the biggest misconceptions and concerns when talking about medical cannabis, when people are new and trying to obtain a medical card?
Russell points to a lack of medical research and clear information, which he links to the absence of federal guidance and research funding. He says patients need understandable information about their state's program, costs, qualifying conditions and product potency.

Q: What are the major trends you're seeing right now as far as patient counts in Georgia, and what are the most interesting data points on growth?
Russell says SB 220's expansion to flower drove a major increase in demand, with NuggMD doctors seeing more patients in the third quarter than in the previous six quarters combined. He estimates Georgia could eventually reach 250,000 to 350,000 patients, with home delivery potentially extending access statewide.
From Organigram Cuts to Question 8 Funding | TTB presented by Flowhub
Q: How should we be looking at that from a physician's point of view in terms of risk, not public policy that they're kind of making up on a whim?
Shields advises avoiding cannabis and other unnecessary exposures during pregnancy because of potential risks, while noting that risk can vary by medication and trimester.
From Organigram Cuts to Question 8 Funding | TTB presented by Flowhub
Q: So how much, James, of that 8 to 10 million, is people cost versus production in brands right now?
Yamanaka says employee-related savings are included in SG&A, while operating-cost savings include expenses associated with staffing and restructuring after the Sanity integration.

Q: How much of that, I guess, extra flour is already spoken for, and where does it get sold? Are we looking at different channels, like provinces? Are we looking at overseas?
Brodie says extra production can support larger-format bags in Canada, where Rubicon has not had enough supply for a regular Ontario Cannabis Store listing, as well as growing international demand. She says the company has signed four international contracts.
