I've lived through both recent swings of the marijuana pendulum. From the late 80s when it was Reefer Madness 2 and going to make you put your baby in the microwave, to the 2000s when it was touted as an herbal pain relief remedy and possible cancer cure. 

Same here. I believe the truth is somewhere in the middle, but we live in a world where everyone uses all or nothing logic.

My friends daughter suffers from CDKL5, and has had days where she has dozens of seizures in one day.  No medicine would stop the seizures. Then they tried marijuana.  When she suffered the seizures, my friend would treat with a weed application, and the seizures would immediately stopped. This has worked for over 20 years.  If that was your daughter, what would you think of marijuana then?

It doesn't seem as if he's passing judgment on THC or it's users - just noting society's changing views on the topic.

 

That's great for your friend's daughter.  I have a friend who's been battling glioblastoma for 6 years and he claims that his CBD/THC use has saved his life.  When I was a kid undergoing rounds of chemo at Roswell, they'd often give me marinol as an antiemetic (made me high as F, but at least I could eat), so it's not as if the medical establishment hasn't known of the virtues of THC/CBD use for decades.

Interesting.  Is Von huge?  Ron White, and Rogan are big.  So when Ron referenced “huge Bills player” I was guessing OL or DL

Joe Rogan is 5'8".  He is buff, but yes, I would think he'd consider someone like Von at 6'3" pretty big.

 

Ron White is 6'2" but big in a different kinda way.  If someone was a bit taller than him and had arms like Von, Ron would probably consider him like one of the bouncers that tossed him in NYC.

I once had a bad high where I was paranoid and thought I was peeing my pants all night.  I was freaking out that people were going to make fun of me so I kept going to the bathroom to clean up....dry each time.  It was crazy lol....I really did think I was peeing my pants.

 

Did you actually pee your pants at any time during the trip?

 

Bladder leakage?

Maybe huge in the figurative sense (famous)?

No. If ever take a trip to South America, I'm going to enjoy myself and have fun, not puke and sh*t my brains out in some hut in the middle of nowhere while having the worst trip imaginable.

I want to try it, I'm terrified but I've heard some unbelievable stories, I could use it rn

 

As you might know, a lot of the experience with a hallucinogenic trip is determined by your state of mind going in... like a self-fulfilling prophecy.

 

If you're in a bad head space, it can definitely exacerbate the negativity you're feeling.

No, he definitely meant huge as in enormous.  He was discussing how there is trained medical staff monitoring trips, and how they handle when people are freaking out.  He said a huge guy, he played for the Bills, was having an intense trip, yelling “get the ***** away from me!”

Ron White broke a sacred rule of group therapy---what happens in group, stays in group. He shouldn't be on a popular podcast dishing out on people, that's wrong.

 

(not using the player's name doesn't absolve him)

Maybe they meant huge as in like, a huge, well known, very recognized player? I dunno. Like a regular internet commenter, I did not watch da video.
