We hope you enjoyed this series! “The first time you consumed alcohol, you had to find what you liked. Are you a beer drinker? Are you a tequila drinker? A gin drinker? People sample and they try, and that's what you have to do with cannabis too, you have to be open to just taking small doses and figuring out what is the process that works for you?” If you enjoyed this episode, we’d recommend Episode 254, How to Talk to Friends Who Are Nervous to Try Weed, Part 1.

Ellen Scanlon’s How to Do the Pot is an award-winning conversation that demystifies cannabis with a focus on women’s experiences. This isn’t a technical manual or a dry lecture; it’s a space where curiosity meets practical, joyful advice. The podcast explores how cannabis can intersect with health, well-being, and daily life, tackling questions that often go unasked. You’ll hear specific discussions about finding the right strain for relaxation or intimacy, using CBD for menstrual discomfort, and the nuanced differences between varieties like Harlequin and Gelato. There’s a deliberate and thoughtful choice in language here, too, favoring the term “cannabis” over other outdated labels. At its heart, the series amplifies personal stories and expert insights, creating a resource that feels both informative and deeply relatable. Whether you’re seeking relief, exploring for fun, or just want to understand the landscape better, this podcast provides a welcoming and smart guide through the often overwhelming world of cannabis, all from a perspective that is genuinely for women and by women.
