"I wanna heal myself with cannabis" a conversation about cannabis & professional sports with Ras Cottreezy
Manage episode 283030742 series 2857472
In this episode I'm joined by cannabis musician and entrepreneur Ras Cottreezy. Ras Cottreezy is a fascinating guest who provided us deep insights from his career in professional football (having played both NFL & arena football) as well as his life travels including stints living in cities like Montreal, Rochester NY, as well as his deep ties to our brothers and sisters in the indigenous communities of North America. His commitment to cannabis social equity and cannabis amnesty permeates our discussion and will leave you wanting to know more about the projects and organizations he’s passionate about such as the Buffalo Soldier Rastafari Coalition.
I’m particularly proud of our discussions about how likely the ability to use medical cannabis would have extended the careers of so many football players. We both agreed that cannabis can be a valuable harm reduction tool to help players manage some of their physical complaints as well as their mental health struggles such as anxiety and depression off the field better. We also had to highlight the hypocrisy of the NFL refusing to entertain medical or adult use cannabis all while promoting alcohol and pharmaceutical products freely (often in areas where children are present and can see these ads), both of which have a history of significant harm to communities, just ask MADD. (But maybe do not ask MADD about cannabis education because that’s not their strong point either)
I hope you’ll enjoy this brand new episode of the MsWeedWiki SPEAKS Podcast as much as I did. I highly recommend you follow Ras Cottreezy on Instagram at @cottreezy and @rastafari_coalition. Please be sure to also keep your eyes and ears out for the release of his newest single “Selassie Souljah” coming soon via the Buffalo Soldier Rastafari Coalition’s online platform.
