The Elevated News Podcast Ep 145 | TSA Cannabis Travel Update, Trulieve NYSE Listing & Michigan Tax Disaster
The Elevated News Podcast with Two Dope Dudes | Episode 145
This week on The Elevated News Podcast, Aaron and Dave dive into several major cannabis stories impacting consumers, patients, and the cannabis industry.
We kick things off with My Bud Jon's review of Ozone's Mandarin Z flower and the Dr. Dabber Ghost 2 portable concentrate vaporizer. Jon breaks down flavor, effects, performance, and whether these products are worth your hard-earned dollars.
Then we jump into Illinois cannabis enforcement after a man was arrested on a CTA train while rolling a cannabis cigar. The discussion evolves into a broader conversation about cannabis enforcement, regulation, home grow rights, and whether states are still treating cannabis consumers fairly.
Next, we head to Michigan, where a new marijuana wholesale tax is generating far less revenue than lawmakers projected. Aaron and Dave break down the numbers, discuss the realities of cannabis taxation, and explain why politicians may have dramatically overestimated expected revenue.
The conversation then shifts to Wall Street as Trulieve becomes the first major U.S. cannabis operator approved to uplist to the New York Stock Exchange. Is this a historic moment for the cannabis industry? Should cannabis consumers consider investing in cannabis stocks? Aaron and Dave share their thoughts.
We also discuss updated TSA guidance regarding medical marijuana and air travel. What can patients legally bring while flying, and what should travelers know before heading to the airport?
In Dave's Corner, we take a deeper look at PTSD, trauma, CBD, THC, and how cannabis may help patients better manage stress responses. Dave shares insights from years of working with medical cannabis patients and explains why consistent CBD use may be one of the most overlooked tools available.
