There is a new TV show I found called Weediquette. They investigate medical marijuana things like veterans who take it for PTSD and parents who give it to children with cancer etc. They talk to Doctors and scientists about it. Most of the doctors, due to the science, think it could be beneficial, but can't test it due to the asssinine level 1 designation.
It is a TV show and I'm sure there is an agenda etc., but it does provide information and shows people, some of which, seem to be able to improve their lives beyond just getting high and playing video games in their Mom's basement. They also raise questions about if it really works too.
Disregarding the whole premise because Chef Jim can get a card without seeing a Dr., is not very scientific.
