Episode 31 – The Stoned Poets Department (with Colin Kelley) | Northern Lights Podcast



As Taylor Swift would say, “My Friends All Smell Like Weed,” because it’s the first legal 4/20 in Minnesota! John and Tanner share their experiences celebrating at various events across the Twin Cities. Then they dig deep into legislation moving it’s way through the chambers, both good (CannOmnibus) and bad (HF 4251). Next, we try Heti’s new Meadow Cat Nap THC beverage, inspired by Dakota roots and created by Dana Thompson, co-creator of the James Beard Award-winning Owamni Restaurant.

Then, Steve and Tanner sit down with Colin Kelley to discuss the history of cannabis in Minnesota and the future of national cannabis. Colin recounts the early days at Leafline Labs, from applying for a license to growing the first harvest, all while working within the confines of new and evolving regulations. They also discuss the value of bringing experience into your growing team when working in the cannabis industry.

Finally, it’s time for another segment of Cooking with Clem, a collaboration between Doctor Dabs and Northern Lights Podcast. Today Clem’s whipping up some Stir Fried Veggies flavored with infused Jerk Seasoning! Doctor Dabs Healthy Highs makes a wide variety of THC-infused products, including infused Maple Syrup from Taylors Falls, MN. Learn how to use Infused Jerk Seasoning to make your own infused meal at home!
