I am also sharing a link to an excellent article about Cannabis I got from Rob Henderson’s most recent Substack that compliments my podcast, and talks specifically about important issues pertaining to Cannabis.
Here is the link to the article from his post that articulates further on this important topic:

And here is a chart that lays out the stats on the harm caused to the user and society by drugs and alcohol.

While magic mushrooms, the least harmful to the user and society, is not legal in most places.
