    In this episode Herb speaks with Axel Bernabe, inaugural Chief of Staff and Senior Policy Director for the New York State Office of Cannabis Management. Axel, a partner at Manatt Health in NYC, was health counsel to former NYS Governor Andrew Cuomo. In that role, Axel helped negotiate the groundbreaking Marijuana Regulation and Taxation Act with the NYS Legislature.

    Our Licensee Highlight segment features Paul Yau, Co-Founder of The Travel Agency (formerly, the Union Square Travel Agency). In partnership with the nonprofit Doe Fund, this Conditional Adult Use Retail Dispensary is setting the standard for aesthetics, product availability, and delivery services. It is also pioneering a retail branding concept in NYS cannabis.
