pretty interesting

I didn't even know weed was legal in Canada before I started listening to this "podcast." I thought it would be somewhat more of a conversation between Jay and various relevant people, but instead it was just Jay reading from a script with previously recorded interviews cut in. However, the script was well written and Jay did a good job delivering it and keeping me interested. I can now say I know a lot more about cannabis in Canada.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
