Ep. 57 - Special Guest: Brandon Beltaine, A Firefighter Under Fire For Medical Cannabis Use

It is almost 420, and for stoners around the world, that means a day of celebration because legend has it that 420 brought 4 teenagers together at a certain time in the afternoon after school to partake. So we can celebrate on one hand that we have come a long way since the 1970s, but we still have a long way to go when we consider how cannabis is still considered illegal at the federal level, and in many cases, in certain aspects of jobs and other lifestyle perspectives.

I’m very fortunate to have encountered a fire fighter named Brandon Beltaine, and he is here with us today to share his story as a fire fighter who had an encounter that has changed his life.  As a wonderful advocate for cannabis now, we are happy to discuss how cannabis has affected both the fire fighting aspects in communities that are charged with keeping individuals safe as well as how he himself has experienced extreme changes in relation to his use of cannabis.
