Marijuana is coming! In fact a dispensary is about to pop up on West Street in Annapolis in a few months! We thought we should talk about it with some experts, so please welcome Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong!
Well, maybe not! But we do have Caroline Phillips and Kevin Cranford with us today. Both are advocates for the legalization of marijuana and have been VERY vocal on the national scene in lobbying for the decriminalization and legalization for medical and recreational use.
In fact, the 2nd Annual National Cannabis Festival is about to take place at RFK Stadium in Washington on April 22nd and Caroline is the Founder & CEO of it!
We sat down on the rooftop at Metropolitan Kitchen &
Lounge to talk about the existing laws, the
coming laws, misconceptions, right-conceptions, and much more.
If you are looking to go to the National Cannabis
Festival, understand it is NOT a "pot fest." It
is an educational and advocacy festival. Yes, they will have music
and food and it will be a good time; but expect to see cannabis
related vendors, organizations, lawmakers, how to grown, and a
special area where Marylanders can meet the growers, cultivators,
and dispensers. Get your questions answered and basically learn
more than we can cover in an hour here on The Maryland Crabs!
