Joint Highpothesis

Want to hear a story of a successful Black business owner? Pivoting from DJ to computer repairman to garden supply store owner, AC of LoudBank tells us a bit about how he started as an entrepreneur and some of the basics of grow science.

DID YOU MISS US CAUSE WE MISSED YALL☺️♥️🪴! We're so excited to kick off our 3rd season of Joint Highpothesis!



This season will focus on the science around c@nn@bis. We’ll have people talk about cultivation, patient health and wellness, and what we call “street science.” For our first guest of the season, we're talking with Sya Collins - a vocalist, and c@nn@bis advocate, who loves to help educate people about the plant through her work as a budtender and her engagement with M4MM. Today we're discussing the body's endocannabinoid system, breaking down some of the complex ways in which it creates and responds to different cannabinoids. We'll also get into how these processes can vary with different consumption methods, so if you've ever been curious about what's happening inside your body after you puff a joint or take an edible, be sure to check this one out. She can be found at on Instagram and Sya Collins on Facebook.

Dawn tells listeners to make smart decisions with the plant so that we can be understood as healthy individuals who are medicating. As a patient advocate, she asks questions on behalf of folks who can’t speak directly to a doctor about their consumption because of the years of stigma in medical settings.

We also talk about medicating safely because decriminalization can't prevent folks from getting felonies if they rack up enough fines. Listen for more tips for beginner patients and consumer in this episode, where we talk about administration methods and how medication worked with her pregnancy.

Episode 5 out now!! In this episode Tea tells their story of connecting to the plant as a means of survival when they were under threat for their high profile activism. We also discuss being “We*d Rich,” infusing chicken, and their history in journalism and organizing.

Longer Description:

Tea is a St. Louis native, born and raised in North City. In 2012, they moved across the state and studied multimedia journalism at Evangel University in Springfield, Missouri.
After the verdict denied Mike Brown justice, T sprung into action on and off campus creating space for students to start conversations about racism.T continued their community organizing throughout Southwest Missouri, giving voice and space to the most marginalized, from Black folx to trans kids and the homeless.

As 2020 came to a close, burnout and the dangers of organizing in what was once noted as the whitest county in America, pushed T to seek refuge in a remote space west of Springfield. There, they fell in love with canna*is (the plant), and learned to grow from seed to smoke. They obtained their cultivators license and studied the plant as much as possible while contributing to a sizable garden.

Unfortunately T had to take refuge again, and moved back home after 10 years in September 2022. Since being home they've begun revamping their garden and developing canna products like edibles and thc pills.

Branded as Dopeboihealer, T grows all-organic cannabis and is focused on creating medicine, space and access for Black folks to interact and learn about the plant as a portal of consciousness and healing.

Trigger warning: We speak of fugitivity and violence throughout this episode, and there is brief mention of harassment, SA, and death threats.
