New York City has long been seen as a holy grail for the legal weed industry, with millions of potential customers. And last year New York state started handing out licenses for its first recreational cannabis shops, the culmination of a series of moves that have seen marijuana decriminalized after decades of being illegal. So how is this new legal weed market supposed to work in a city with a long and complicated history with drugs, and what are the considerations going into its creation? In this first episode of a special Odd Lots series, we take a deep dive into what's going on with the legalized marijuana market in New York. We’ll spend three episodes exploring what the birth of this market looks like, how these businesses are setting up, and finally how New York is trying to address the social inequities of the past.

Today on the Matt Walsh Show, chaos and uncertainty around the election. This is the inevitable result of a confused and haphazard voting system combined with a total lack of trust in the media and our institutions. The media now scolds Americans who question the election results, but it is their own fault for giving us so many reasons to doubt what they tell us. Also, Five Headlines including moves all across the country to legalize drugs. Is it time for the GOP to make marijuana legalization part of its platform? And in our Daily Cancellation, I cancel National Geographic for speculating that prehistoric people 9000 years ago may have been proponents of left wing gender theory.
