This week we delve into the recent autoposy from Tom Petty and the fact that opioids are killing nearly 100 Americans A DAY!  Cannabis, meanwhile, has NEVER recorded an overdose!  However, the drugs Tom Petty, Prince, Michael Jackson and others have taken are PRESCRIBED AND 100% LEGAL.  A prescription for death vs an opportunity at life… with cannabis.  

We also cover the latest news, update on the crop report from Vote Hemp showing over 25,000 acres of hemp cultivated in USA in 2017, upcoming travel to Iowa and Mexico for hemp advocacy and education, the IndoExpo Trade Show this weekend in Denver, and meaningless banter and nonsense to fill in the gaps.
