MN's Half-Baked Legal Weed Plan. Plus, 'Resist and Unsubscribe', and Twin Cities Wins
Why is the legal weed rollout in Minnesota moving so slowly? Sean McPherson talks with contributor Sam Choo and cannabis entrepreneur Yoni Reinharz about where things actually stand in terms of dispensaries, tribal operations, THC drinks, and whether Minnesotans are still buying weed the old-fashioned way. Then, Pivot podcast co-host Scott Galloway joins Sean and City Cast contributor Tane Danger ahead of his Minneapolis appearance to talk about his “Resist and Unsubscribe” campaign, why he’s bringing the message to the Twin Cities, and what it will take for consumers to force big companies to change. And City Cast Creative Producer Adam Sage joins for some feel-good stories about the cities we love.
