In this episode, Cole sits down with Rod Kight, an attorney and hemp advocate, to explore the ongoing battle over hemp regulations and what it means for consumers, small businesses, and the cannabis industry at large. They discuss the crucial freedoms granted by the 2018 Farm Bill, the three-pillar regulatory approach to keep consumers safe, and the surprising support Rod has received from unlikely allies.
Tune in for an engaging conversation that digs deep into the debates around hemp as a ‘Trojan Horse’ for broader cannabis access and the potential risks posed by restrictive policies.
