C3 Podcast No. 5: Dr. John MacKay

In No. 5 of the C3 Podcast, host Curt Robbins from Higher Learning LV gives regular co-hosts John Bailey from the Mindset Genesis and Dena Putnam from Leafwize Naturals the week off to conduct a one-on-one interview with Dr. John MacKay, one of the leading chemists and cannabinoid extraction scientists in North America.

MacKay shares his insight on alt cannabinoids such as delta-8 THC and why CBD is not the darling treatment for epilepsy (it's a sibling molecule that he explains in the interview).

MacKay also shares how he thinks the cannabis industry needs to self-regulate instead of waiting for federal regulatory oversight to set the rules for this controversial but rapidly growing emerging segment of the U.S. economy.

The podcast wraps with a brief discussion of how U.S. federal authorities didn't launch the prohibition of cannabis. Rather, U.S. states began the anti-cannabis crusade in the nineteen teens, with Canada invoking federal-level cannabis prohibition in 1923 and the U.S. following suit in 1937.
