Well… this was not the episode I planned to give you this week.
I had an interview recorded with Chloe Teh. It was fascinating. I loved it. And then I fucked up the recording.
So, we pivot.
This week I’m answering some of the cannabis questions that you keep asking! the ones that sound simple until you realise the answer is usually: it depends.
Does higher THC actually mean better cannabis? Why can two people take the exact same thing and have completely different experiences? Can hormones change the way cannabis feels? And do you really need to tell your doctor you take prescribed cannabis?
We get into THC, tolerance, dose, hormones, individual biology and why cannabis conversations need a lot more nuance than they often get.
Then things become considerably less scientific.
In Wellness Field Notes, I report back from my adventures in coffee enemas including the part the serene wellness imagery conveniently leaves out.
And in dating: Spanish Guy is back. Sort of. He's jet-lagged, we haven't managed to catch up, and his messages have once again reached the dazzling conversational heights of… “heyyyy.”
