High On The Hog The Potcast

How did an event and party planner come to create an amazing fruit candy, laced with healing CBD? As is often the case, it grew out of a medical necessity in her own life. Necessity really is the mother of…medical cannabis products! And not only does it work…it tastes so good. Gay Gelman, Co-founder of Upside Edibles @upside_edibles is our guest this week on High on the Hog: The Potcast!

Can cannabis slow the growth of cancerous cells in the body? There’s lots of evidence it can. But it’s all anecdotal -- our government won’t allow real scientists to do real studies of the real effects of cannabis. THC and CBD might be able to save lives. What’s the hold-up? We’ll discuss that this week, and so much more, on High on the Hog: The Potcast.

This week, High on the Hog: The Potcast, continues on the road, speaking to real people about real problems -- and finding real solutions thanks to the healing power of medical cannabis -- of CBD and THC!

In her case, medical cannabis literally saved her life!

Every year, thousands of cannabis sellers and buyers gather in Northern California at the fabled Hall of Flowers -- where every strain, every variation, every new development in cannabis is to be found. For those like us, who have come to believe in the wonders of CBD and THC, it’s like being a kid lost in a candy store! We speak with Rama Mayo, his real name, founder of Hall of Flowers @hallofflowers and Partner in Green Street @greenstreetagency this week on High on the Hog.

Would you believe your tolerance of cannabis based products -- of THC and CBD -- is determined by your genetic makeup? And that’s not all! By testing your DNA, with a simple swab, and then sending to a super high-tech laboratory, you can get a report on how much of what to use for whatever it is that ails you! It’s a futuristic diagnosis tool -- for the medical solution of the future. Find out about Endocanna Health @EndocannaHealth this week from CEO Len May @lenmaycannadna…on High on the Hog: The Po

Medical cannabis isn’t just about the products. There’s a universe of promotion, packaging, marketing -- even photography and the focusing of medical cannabis for very specific ethnic groups.

There’s more to medical cannabis than meets the eye -- including thousands of carefully curated photographs of every imaginable strain.

Is medical cannabis about to be taken over by Big Business? By Big Pharma…and Big Tobacco. And how will that impact this business that literally has grown…from the ground up? We take an in-depth look at the fast-growing world of CBD and THC -- and how Big Business may be changing the whole landscape. For better…or not. This week, on High on the Hog: The Potcast!

How powerful is medical cannabis? Profoundly powerful is the best way to put it!

Think it’s easy to mix up a batch of healing medical cannabis balm. Just a dash of CBD here…and a spoonful of THC there? Not even close! The process is intense and demanding, like making fine wines, only more so. We’ll take you behind the scenes with COO Boris Shcharansky at the creation of the remarkable products made by Papa & Barkley, one of the leading names in the fast-growing medical cannabis world. You’ll be amazed! But then, we always strive to amaze you.

How is a major medical cannabis brand come to be? Well, in the case of industry leader Papa & Barkley @papaandbarkley, necessity was truly the mother of invention. The founder’s father was in pain. And his son mixed up a batch of cannabis cream -- and the result was nothing short of miraculous. The further result is a line of products that’s hailed by many as a healing wonder. Join us this week, to hear all about it with COO Boris Shcharansky, on High on the Hog: The Potcast.
