A key component of adult-use cannabis legalization in Germany involves ongoing evaluations by researchers and government officials to gauge if the nation’s cannabis policies and regulations are effective. The data derived from the evaluation efforts, especially the EKOCAN project, will be heavily relied upon by German lawmakers when they make future decisions about German cannabis laws and industry regulations. Several initial evaluation data points and findings have recently surfaced, and the results are favorable. The information from researchers heavily focuses on three main components: Child and youth protection Public health outcomes Cannabis-related crime Focus #1: Child and Youth Protection Regarding…

Some gear earns your respect the moment you open the box. Not because it’s flashy or expensive, but because it feels like it was made with care. That’s what happened when I got my hands on the Grado Hemp Headphones, a limited-edition, hand-assembled pair made from compressed hemp and maple wood in Brooklyn, New York. At first glance, it sounds like a novelty. Headphones made out of weed? Cute. But then you plug them in. And suddenly, the whole thing makes sense. These are not gimmick headphones. They’re refined, warm, and weird in the best way. They have soul. Headphones…
For decades, American politics has been locked in a stale headlock between Democrats and Republicans. Red versus blue, left versus right—the duopoly is so ingrained that most voters can’t even imagine a third way forward. But cannabis is doing what no polished debate stage or billion-dollar Super PAC could: it’s cracking the two-party armor wide open. In red states, voters choose legalization when their politicians won’t. In blue states, activists push past timid Democrats to demand equity and justice. And in between—the independents, the libertarians, the Greens—cannabis is the rare issue where everyone can share a joint, literally or figuratively.…
When Joanne Wilson decided to launch Gotham, her flagship cannabis dispensary in New York City, it wasn’t just another business move. It was the culmination of decades of experience in retail, investing, philanthropy, and culture, and a bold attempt to rewrite the narrative of cannabis in America’s most complicated market. “I am the founder and CEO of Gotham,” Wilson told me. “And that is one section of my life.” Sections, indeed. Wilson has been many things: a retail buyer out of college, a media entrepreneur in the early days of New York tech, a prolific angel investor with more than…
Every cannabis consumer knows the feeling. You’ve just enjoyed a smooth joint, a flavorful dab, or maybe a heavy-hitting bong rip, and as you lean back, satisfied, you realize your mouth feels like the Sahara desert. That unmistakable dry, sticky, tongue-heavy sensation we call cotton mouth can crash a sesh faster than a bad playlist. For decades, smokers have been improvising remedies, chugging water, chewing gum, even crunching on an ice cube, but nothing has ever quite felt designed for us. Enter Dr. Buzzkill’s Cotton Mouth Killers, a stoner-friendly innovation that aims at one of cannabis culture’s most notorious side…

The music industry has never been an easy place to navigate. For every breakout story, there are dozens of young artists left wondering why their streaming checks don’t cover the rent or why the viral moment they dreamed of fizzled after a few weeks. That reality is exactly why Sophie Steele, founder of Kopius Media, has dedicated her career to helping musicians build real infrastructure around their art. Sophie’s path to running an agency wasn’t a traditional MBA-to-corporate pipeline story. She started as an artist herself, recording and releasing music before discovering just how fragmented and often predatory the business…
