Welcome to Give and Toke: Cannabis Conversations

Weed, pot, dope - Cannabis has many different names and frequently people's perception of it is negative. Sometimes from a first hand encounter, but far too often from the tall tales we are told as we grow up. Despite the stereotypes of lazy potheads and reefer madness, over a third of Australians have tried cannabis, and 1 in 10 Australians use it regularly.
Throughout this podcast, you’ll hear stories from industry experts, medical professionals, policy makers, cannabis users and others across the world who can teach us a thing or two about cannabis.
Coming this September, join me and my guests as we elevate the conversation to a higher level, right here on Give and Toke Cannabis Conversations.

In this episode of Give & Toke, we sit down with Victorian MP Rachel Payne, for an insightful conversation that marks two years since entering parliament along with 50 episodes of this show.
We discuss the transition from Dan Andrews to Jacinta Allan and what it means for cannabis reform (3:00). We talk about the recent win for Victorian patients who drive (5:45), before looking back at two years of navigating hemp reform, pill testing, relationships, compromise, and the importance of evolving and letting go (15:00).
We dive into the critical topic of housing affordability and the other challenges facing her electorate of over 600,000 South-East Melburnians (28:00). Rachel highlights the importance of giving a voice to underrepresented groups and how this informs her work in office (33:30).
The conversation also turns to the impact of social media and shadow bans on modern politics (37:55), before turning to Fiona Patten’s return to the scene (41:50). We play a quick quiz entitled Rachel Profiling (45:00) before diving into the big issues on the horizon for 2025, including personal use and workplace drug testing (50:00).
Rachel also touches on the role of medicinal cannabis companies and their social responsibilities (60:00), as well as how she maintains motivation in the face of political disappointment (66:00). Finally, we wrap up with some listener questions where we learn what type of cannabis product David Ettershank would be (71:00).

Roadside Drug Testing Laws in Australia are discriminatory, and despite losing her seat in the 2022 Victorian Election, Fiona Patten is supporting the Legalise Cannabis Victoria Party’s bill to create protections for cannabis users.
In this episode we discuss the need for the law to be changed, why the Andrews Government essentially ignored the findings of the Inquiry Into Personal Cannabis Use, what civilians can do to lobby their local representatives as well as a brief discussion about decriminalization vs. legalisation. There’s a great quiz in this one, too.

Jesse Lavoie has taken a constitutional challenge to the provincial government of Manitoba for denying his right to home grow 4 cannabis plants, as is allowed by the Canadian Cannabis Act. His opponents are leaning on outdated arguments and though they're dragging their feet and costing him a lot of money - Jesse is not giving in.
Jesse is doing amazing things through his new Toba Rolls and Toba Jars brands that are raising money for his legal battles and for charity, all while putting out some incredible quality product.
