Morgan Caitlin on Canna Science and Cannabis Conundrums

Morgan Caitlin’s own personal journey led through the loss of friends to opiates; her own discovery of cannabis for chronic pain, anxiety and depression; and a move to the Colorado where she began her professional canna journey. Morgan is now back on the east coast as a microbiologist in New Jersey, and on today’s podcast she shares her insights with Joyce on the emerging New Jersey cannabis legal market, specifically what’s going on in labs and what value she is adding to the emerging New Jersey industry and how to encourage more female scientists to join the cannabis world. 

Joyce and Dave also dish about how the bicycle was tied closely to women’s suffragettes which Joyce learned about through a new novel, Spin,  based on Annie Londonberry’s bicycle trip around the world in late 1894-1895, and why 1974 was such a great year for popular culture in California.
