Bite Me The Show About Edibles

Send Bite Me a Text - How Did You Discover The Show?

I can't wait for the Lost Art Workshop but legalization in Germany and a whirlwind trip to Irleland are how I'm finishing up my time abroad. I find myself filled with a melange of emotions. The support from you, my passionate listeners, has turned the Bite Me into a beacon for those who revel in the intersection of travel, culture, and the ever-evolving world of cannabis.

I'll regale you with tales of my recent escapade to Ireland, where the local cannabis community enveloped me in warmth, and the exchange of potent homemade edibles left me with a treasury of flavours to savour. This trip was not just about exploration, but also about the precious connections and learnings I'm eager to bring home to Canada, enriching our shared journey through the podcast.

Sadly, an interview with the legendary Mila the Hash Queen slipped through my fingers due to technical gremlins, yet her spirit permeates the episode as I anticipate the Frenchy Lost Art Workshop in Toronto—a conclave for those yearning to master the ancient craft of hash-making. While Mila's physical presence was missed, her life story unfolds in our discussion, painting a portrait of a woman whose path from an unwed mother to a cannabis culture icon is nothing short of inspiring.

As we wrap up, I extend an invitation to text and engage directly with the show, fostering a community rich in stories and recommendations. Your tales of discovery and shared experiences breathe life into Bite Me, ensuring our collective adventure in cannabis and cuisine continues to flourish.

As I pack my bags and bid "Auf Wiedersehen" to Germany, I'm filled with a mix of excitement and nostalgia. The prospect of witnessing the changes in Canada's cannabis landscape is thrilling, and I'm equally curious to see how Germany's scene will evolve by the time I potentially return.

In closing, I invite you to join me on this journey, both through the podcast episodes and here in the written word. Let's continue to explore the dynamic world of cannabis together, sharing laughs, lessons, and insights along the way. Until next time, keep those texts coming and stay high.

Gather 'round the kitchen table, dear listeners, as I whisk you away on a culinary caper through the heart of Berlin. Imagine the thrill of transforming a foreign kitchen into an edibles bakery, where the humble brownie becomes a canvas for cannabis creativity. It was a test of innovation and resourcefulness, employing the versatile Ardent device to decarb and infuse without sending up smoke signals. As we celebrate nearly five years and 246 episodes of Bite Me, I'm pouring out a hefty dose of gratitude for you, my community, who've been the key ingredient in this wild and flavorful adventure.

Wading into the buttery depths of brownie baking and dosage discovery, I unfold the essential 'go low and go slow' mantra for those new to the world of edibles. No fancy mixers, just my hands, heart, and a spoon stirring up stories of potency pitfalls and perfecting the craft. Plus, I'm bubbling with excitement to dish about the upcoming hash-making workshop in Toronto and prepping my green thumb for cannabis cultivation back in Canada. It's not just about the brownies; it's about the bonds we've baked along the way. So, roll up your sleeves and join this kitchen confab, as we rise above Instagram's haze of cannabis content restrictions and relish in the unfiltered camaraderie of the Bite Me Cannabis Club.

How hard is it to find German cannabis amidst new cannabis legalization? In the latest episode of Bite Me, I recount my Berlin escapades amidst Germany's fresh cannabis legalization wave.

I dive into the highs and lows of scoring some green in a new city, all while navigating the cultural quirks and linguistic hurdles of my German adventure. From the buzz of 420 festivities at the iconic Brandenburg Gate to the chill vibes of a dedicated 420-friendly space, I paints a picture of Berlin's budding cannabis scene.

I even touch on the city's nippy April weather (I am Canadian after all) and some observations about life in Berlin. From navigating the German language (and the locals' penchant for switching to English) to the peculiar absence of window screens, I'm peeling back the layers of daily life in Germany's capital. Plus, I'll share the nitty-gritty on SIM cards and public transport, proving that the devil truly is in the details.

Eager to hear toking tales, I invite you to share insights in your local cannabis scenes or adventures scoring weed away from home. Tune in, turn up the closing tune Munchies.

Feel the pulse of Ireland's cannabis culture as I team up with the voices of change, Martin from Martin's World, Temple Grower, and Green Beard Grows, for a special episode that's more than just a sea of green hats and shamrocks. We peel back the layers of tradition and myth to uncover how cannabis intertwines with the fabric of Irish festivities. Our chat reveals the true essence of St. Patrick's Day in Ireland, debunking common misconceptions and highlighting the communal spirit that defines this holiday, all while pondering the place of cannabis in Irish revelry and contrasting it with the scene in Canada.

Turning toward a matter close to the heart, we navigate the thorny path of obtaining medical cannabis in Ireland, where prohibitive laws and bureaucratic mazes pose formidable barriers to patients in dire need. The stories shared are a testament to the resilience of the Irish spirit, as we hear from those who've had to seek their medicine abroad and from activists boldly sowing the seeds of change. Our conversation doesn't shy away from the economic realities and complexities either, as we broach the contentious issue of pricing, terminology, and the societal impact of drug enforcement, infusing a dose of reality into the often-idealized world of cannabis economics.

By the time we wrap up, we've ventured through the pressing legal struggles faced by advocates challenging restrictive laws, including Martin's own upcoming court battle. We question the future of cannabis legislation, with eyes on Germany's legalization, and consider how home cultivation could revolutionize access to plant-based remedies. Join us for this candid exchange that's bound to stir thoughts and inspire action, and if your curiosity is sparked, the show notes are your treasure map to further exploration of Ireland's evolving green landscape.

These olive oil cookies kept me sane. Embarking on a new chapter can stir a mix of emotions, just as I discovered when life took a turn and I found myself back in my childhood home, living with my spry 92-year-old father.

As I share the experience of settling back into familiar walls, the narrative unfolds with the vibrant colours of home-grown aspirations—cultivating cannabis and vegetables in the garden. I also tease an upcoming expedition to Germany, underlining the poignant lesson that moments with loved ones are priceless treasures to hold dear.
