Critical Hearing in Denver on MONDAY, JULY 20


On Monday, July 20, the Colorado Board of Health will hold a critical public hearing at which it will consider harmful changes to Colorado’s medical marijuana law proposed by the Department of Public Health and Environment.

In particular, the board is considering a proposal to limit the number of patients a licensed caregiver can assist to five (5). Currently, caregivers in Colorado can assist however many patients need their help. The proposed limit on caregivers would make it very difficult for many patients to find a suitable caregiver and maintain safe access to a reliable supply of their medicine.

Could you imagine going into a pharmacy to pick up a medication that your doctor recommended, only to have the pharmacist say, “Sorry, we can’t help you because we’re already helping five people?”  If you agree that is crazy, please attend the hearing and showing your support for safe access to medical marijuana in Colorado.

WHAT: Colorado Board of Health hearing

WHERE: Turnhalle Room, Tivoli Student Union, Auraria Campus, 900 Auraria Parkway, Denver (Map)

WHEN: Monday, July 20th, 8:30 a.m.

IMPORTANT: This is a formal hearing, so please dress and act professionally.  Signs and banners will NOT be allowed inside the building.

We open talking about Derek and I’s exciting week, including the opening of a dispensary he is operating in Northern Colorado named InHarmony Wellness.

We talk with S.A.F.E.R. Executive Director Mason Tvert about what’s been going on with the organization and about Mason’s New Book he co-wrote with S.A.F.E.R. co-founder Steve Fox who is now with MPP, and NORML Deputy Director Paul Armentano. The Book is titled Marijuana is SAFER So Why Are We Driving People to Drink.

Why we are delayed this week and wanted one of the best produced and funniest radio shows/podcasts anywhere to fill in at WeedWatch… Sometimes those life problems that pop up just get the best of you. While trying to pick up co-host Derek from his dispensary one hour north of Denver in Windsor, Colorado and get him and me back to the studio in time for our interviews and show production today, my car stopped running. In the middle of the highway in 80 MPH traffic. Good times it was. I was picking up Derek because his car was overheating badly and needed to be taken to the shop and therefore didn’t have any wheels to Denver. So, two car situations today and two delayed interviews, equal no show till at least Thursday night.

I do have some interesting conversations happening this week on the growth of JDR. After a few meetings and chats with some prospective new correspondents from well known faces in the Marijuana Podcast “industry”, I will have some news or something of that sort along the information and progress line to toss to y’all. Hopefully making this week not a total frustration.

Thanks to Mason Tvert of S.A.F.E.R. and Naresh of the Colorado Medical Marijuana Information Line (877-MMJ-Line) for being extremely cool about rescheduling with us. Hopefully Thursday Derek can get down to the studio to do the show and we can bring you this weeks JDR goodness.

PS- For this small inconvenience we will probably toss another giveaway into the mix ASAP. A super cool new tokin’ product.
