This week, veteran cannabis journalist David Bienenstock joins the pod to talk about important moments in cannabis history and why it’s so important to preserve it. Besides his work as a journalist, David is the author of How to Smoke Pot (Properly): A Highbrow Guide to Getting High and co-hosts the podcast Great Moments in Weed History. In this episode, David talks about how his experience in cannabis journalism has changed throughout his career, and why activism is still important. He also shares some unlikely cannabis figures in the plant’s history, and what we stand to lose when we forget the past.
