Exploring the intriguing interplay between cannabis, religion, and society, the 'because cannabis' podcast invites Madison Margolin, author of ‘Exile and Ecstasy: Growing Up with Ram Dass and Coming of Age in the Jewish Psychedelic Underground’, to share thought-provoking insights from her personal and professional journey. Madison unravels how cannabis has transcended its recreational status to become a pivotal part of spiritual awakening and healing practices in various communities, all while challenging the societal stigma associated with its usage.

The episode further delves into the essence of human connection and how significant, albeit seemingly trivial conversations, shape our interactions. Through their discourse, Madison and B.C. remind listeners of introspective podcasts' potential—to catalyze deeper engagement and knowledge-based discussions, particularly in a society grappling with the effects of digital media dominance and post-pandemic lifestyle shifts.
