The State of Cannabis News Hour Launches on 4/20
The Fastest Growing Industry Embraces Social Media's Fastest Growing App
The State of Cannabis, a leading California cannabis advocacy and event production organization, is launching The State of Cannabis News Hour on Clubhouse this 4/20. The show, which will air from 9am to 10 am PST Monday through Friday, will feature news and commentary from cannabis experts from around the world and is being billed as “Cannabis News by the People Who Make It.”
“Since first visiting in December 2020, I’ve been all in on Clubhouse,” says Susan Soares, founder of The State of Cannabis. “I was inspired by the #NewsNewsNewsCH to build a focused cannabis news channel that #Clubhouse users can rely on every weekday. With 69% of Americans now support legalizing cannabis according to Quinnipiac University polling, there is a real hunger for information about the industry and we are hoping we can provide it.”
The Cannabis News Hour will be a roundtable-style news format with subject matter experts bringing stories every weekday morning from the world of cannabis. These important news stories are those that are driving developments in – and restrictions against – America’s fastest growing industry.
“Over 300,000 Americans now work in the legal cannabis industry – these workers were declared ‘essential’ during the COVID emergency. In the past few weeks, three more states have legalized bringing the total number of adult use states to 18, along with the 35 medical states and the District of Columbia. New realities like these demonstrate the sheer potential cannabis has to be a leading force for the economy, jobs, health and wellness, and social equity,” said Soares.
