256. What Is “Good Weed”? A Resource for Women, Part 1

256. What Is “Good Weed”? A Resource for Women, Part 1

Author: Ellen Scanlon August 27, 2024 Duration: 15:09
Today’s episode begins a 4-part series exploring what “good weed” truly means - for women. We’re challenging the outdated idea that “good weed” is defined by a group of guys hanging out in a smoky room. Instead, we’re redefining it to support the diverse needs of women—whether it’s for stress relief, a creative spark, or a balanced, enjoyable high. Stay tuned for the rest of the series, where we’ll share the best cannabis strains to match how you want to feel. “At the end of the day, what good weed is for you is going to differ from what good weed is for me. What’s good for those high-time stoner bros who have declared that weed to be the chronic, the fire, the dopest shit around, it’s not my chronic, bro. I like something that has less of a THC effect, something that’s more mind windy, get lost in a creative process, or that’s really social and chatty is more fun to me than just checking out and going away.” If you enjoyed this episode, we’d recommend Episode 232, Back To Basics: A Simplified Guide to Cannabis Strains.

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 There’s a deliberate and thoughtful choice in language here, too, favoring the term “cannabis” over other outdated labels.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.
