Ep. 46, Why Cannabis Has Gotten a Bad Rap...

(And What We Can Do About It!)

Special Guests: Andrew Conrad and Jerod Martin

· Podcast Episode

Let's be honest, the world of cannabis has gotten a bad rap. There seems to be way too much information running loose "out there" and it's getting harder to discern fact from fiction.

Especially when seeking the true value of the plant in any format, figuring out whether a particular CBD-oil, for example, is healthy or not healthy is a major challenge.

The bad rap though is that we’ve been indoctrinated to view marijuana as a dangerous gateway drug that will lead you down a path of illicit drug use.

But WAIT! What about all that scientific data about the health-related awesomeness of the plant?

The honest truth is that there's a dark side around ALL types of health products, in general, today with SO MUCH misinformation, misleading data around the quality of ingredients, and so much more.

WHY, YOU ASK?!

Because there are interest groups that try to drown out the truth so that big pharma interests can "own" a particular space. If you haven't heard about the lies taking place in that realm, look at this.

In this episode, we talk to two cannabis experts, Andrew Conrad and Jerod Martin (connect with them below!), both a part of E5 Chem (you'll learn more about their company in the episode!) and they're changing the game around manufacturing cannabis so we'll get into:

  • WHY cannabis has gotten a bad rap (and what we can do about it) 
  • That the time is NOW to start disrupting the industry as it has to be done right for the end-user (the customer) 
  • Why there needs to be a focus on HEALTH and not “get rich quick” schemes that far too many companies are focusing on
  • The fact that finding quality and trusting companies is imperative because regulation is coming so the cannabis world needs to be ready for that
