About this episode

Cannabis pioneer, Andrew DeAngelo, joins Madison to discuss psychedelics, conscious capitalism and how 'California sober' is harm reduction.

"I like the term 'California Sober' because it's a little more operational than 'harm reduction,' it's more appealing to people. We need to brand responsible intoxicant use in a fun way, and Cali Sober does that... I think this may present a little bit of a different operating system for sobriety that people can embrace." – Andrew DeAngelo

Andrew DeAngelo is a unique leader who builds organizations from the ground up. He is the co-founder of Harborside Inc, a publicly traded cannabis company. He is the co-founder and current chair of the board of directors for the non-profit, Last Prisoner Project. And he is the co-founder of the trade organization, California Cannabis Industry Association. In addition, Andrew is one of the few people to have owned and operated cannabis companies in the legacy, medical, and adult-use markets on both coasts of the United States. As an activist for the last 35 years, Andrew helped legalize medical and adult-use cannabis in California and Washington, D.C – a true pioneer in the industry.
