Kailee joins Brian to cover kratom and cannabis news for the past month. This month: Biden pardons thousands convicted of simple possession of weed, Michigan has a bill regulating kratom, a Welsh man can’t believe kratom importation is illegal in the UK, lab testing will be required for kratom exports from Thailand, and Kratom Science asks whether a 7-hydroxymitragynine-based drug is a good idea.
We also cover Mike “The Kratom Guy” Overstreet who went to Boston’s “methadone mile” (aka Mass and Cass) to hand out care packages to homeless people living there, including kratom.
