Thank you for outlining what we need Shane.

If I may return the favour, the Twitter link in your profile is broken and if we remove the space it's an account with photos of female bodies. Is that really the image you wanted to project?

Approaching this coming election the cannabis topic will be topical on ZB and Magic. ...You need to recruit Kiwis who are using cannabis to effect to call these stations and explain the benefits of cannabis to them and the tribulations of it's illegality ....The listeners need to hear views outside…

I saw a (UK) doco a while back that talked about a genetic marker for risk of bipolar disorder triggered by adolescent use of cannabis, and quoted the Dunedin study. Is this still a solid finding? I seem to remember the front-person saying it was about 15% of the population.…

Russell, is there any way you can block ritawgoodman12 from spamming your site? I first saw the unwanted message just above on Radiation (it’s still there).

Apart from shutting down new registrations, no. It's a different one every day.

I think psychosis rather than mood disorder, which makes sense in terms of its propensity to cause paranoia.

A blazing (sorry) column by Rebecca Reider about the NZMA chair's comments on access to medicinal cannabis.

The doctors' body is embarrassing itself at the moment.

The trouble is that talking about this stuff leads to a lot of inadvertent puns. Agree about the NZMA, just terrible behaviour, but not…

Nice work Russell

Getting across that cannabis has benefits to be exploited and maximised not just harms to be minimised is a struggle.

You are an undisputed champ on this subject Russell. How to convey such vital detail to potential Referendum voters (i.e. Newstalk ZB listeners) is important.

“Make it Legal” are doing nice work with their multiple meme social media approach.
