From Loophole to Lifeline – Rod Discusses How Hemp Could Save the Cannabis Industry on the Cole Memo [Video Podcast]

I recently discussed the ever-evolving hemp and cannabis industry with Cole of the Cole Memo Podcast. As the California cannabis market is in freefall, voters in several states rejected adult use/recreational marijuana earlier this month, and the DEA’s hearing on rescheduling is being challenged in court, it can be difficult to determine where the cannabis industry is headed. 

During our one hour conversation Cole engaged with me on a range of topics, including how hemp could be the future of the cannabis industry and possibly be the best and fastest path to full cannabis legalization. We also discussed a number of related issues. I appreciate Cole’s knowledge, his interest in the future of cannabis policy, and his willingness to “go deep”. I hope you enjoy our discussion.
