CBD 101 - An Introduction to CBD

Co-hosts, Martin and Adam share their personal journeys and explorations on the use of the Cannabis Sativa plant, e.g., CBD oil, and hemp capsules.

We talk about the different uses of industrial hemp and medical marijuana products becoming more available to mass markets, what is going on with the research and development in this field, the historical cultivation of hemp, new small business opportunities for the future, and having a discourse on the rules and laws regarding the production of industrial hemp, ("crack")pot politics, legalization, etc.

We will also invite guests and experts in the field, to the show. We are also interested in talking with fellow content creators and podcasters, potential partners, and sponsors for the show.
