This week, JP sits down with David Downs, award-winning cannabis journalist, bestselling author, and one of the most respected voices in the industry. With bylines at Leafly, High Times, the San Francisco Chronicle, Rolling Stone, WIRED, and many more, David has spent years documenting the evolution of cannabis culture, legalization, and genetics.
