This Week in Cannabis Live

Published by Cultivated

  • Society & culture
  • News
  • Business news

The week in cannabis, unpacked by the people who cover it every day. Each week, the teams behind Cultivated, High Spirits, and Cannabis Musings sit down to break down the biggest stories in the cannabis industry — the deals, the policy fights, the earnings, the drama — and what they actually mean for the people building businesses in this space. It's part news roundup, part group chat: sharp analysis, honest debate, and the occasional hot take from three publications that read everything so you don't have to. Whether you're an operator, investor, policymaker, or just cannabis-curious, this is your weekly download on where the industry is headed. Recorded live every week. New episodes every Friday. Presented by Cultivated, the daily briefing for the cannabis industry — subscribe at cultivated.news.
