Special Guest Womenace Nakisa, a pro-cannabis activist with Safer Arizona 2018, needs approximately 75,000 more signatures by June 30th in order for Arizonans to vote on whether or not they'd like to re-legalize recreational marijuana. Many in AZ apparently feel "medical is good enough", which is perhaps one reason rec didn't pass in 2016. But as Nakisa points out: Arizona has such a short list of qualifying medical conditions, many who could benefit from this plant are denied legal access to it. This initiative will, "Repeal prohibition on adult use of marijuana for Arizonans. It reflects the Will of the People NOT special interests". Even Terry Goddard, the Former Attorney General of Arizona agrees, and supports Safer AZ 2018, possibly because "More Americans die each year from hanging Christmas lights than pot". Nakisa charmingly breaks down what she and her group are doing to inform the public and register new voters- and by the way Arizona, you're all invited to the statewide Pot Luck Dinner. Just Say Kn

For the past four years, Frank Grove and his team have been canvassing the state of Oklahoma gathering signatures, educating the public, and registering citizens to vote for legal medical marijuana. The outcome? "Since January, we have doubled the number of registered voters". And OK voters will have the chance to decide whether or not to allow a physician to recommend their patients use a plant instead of Big Pharma's toxins, on June 26th, 2018. This will be the first time Oklahomans will be able to vote for medical cannabis. Data suggests it will pass, House Majority Leader Jon Echols has already said he will, "enforce the Will of the People" BUT the opposition (Big Pharma, Prisons, and LEO's) just got an influx of money to subvert the people's will. Frank breaks down the low info campaign of propaganda and outright lies the opposition is spreading to confuse and lie to voters in an attempt to stop medical cannabis from happening in a state chock full of veterans and farmers disproportionally suffering from

Please help Lisa Landry welcome this week's special guest Sexual Shaman Kenneth Ray Stubbs. Ray decided the massage profession was in denial about sexuality. So in 1986, he self-published the very first book on erotic massage that included pictures of genitalia to help couples realize, "the whole body if you become aware and open to it, is an erogenous zone."

Please help Lisa Landry welcome this week's very funny special guest artist, teacher, and muse Lisa Jo Outlaw. Originally from the American Midwest, Outlaw moved to Fayetteville where she founded "The Little Village", an art haven for the community that's listed as one of the attractions for folks to check out when visiting Arkansas. Yes, there is art in Arkansas, where going to WalMart is shopping local. BONUS: if you like when animals attack, Outlaw shares her escape from a horde of zombie squirrels. "It's the journey. It's always about the journey. It's always about how you get there. What you're doing while you're sitting there is way more important than what that picture looks like when it's done."

Troy Williams is a former missionary man and current cheery optimist who believes,“For whatever reason, the Mormon Heavenly Father just keeps on sending gay and transgendered babies into Mormon households.” Troy started Equality Utah, a non-profit organization that exists to disappear all discriminatory laws within the Beehive State. Utah is the ONLY state with a Republican controlled legislature that’s passed anti-discrimination laws. How did that happen? “The Utah Legislature is 85% Republican and 90% LDS. We’re very tribal. But we’ve been able to sort of recognize- there is no Them versus Us- there’s only US.”   “When we’re able to help each other see ourselves in each other- we’re able to make real progress.”

Dr. Handrahan has worked with the UN, Asia Society, and CARE over the past few decades. She’s been trying to get the word out that there are humanitarian aid workers engaging in child trafficking and trading food for sex. You’d think these NGO’s would reward her for doing her job protecting the children being exploited by the very men who were dispatched to “help” them. Instead, Dr. Handrahan was fired and sent home from South Sudan. She is convinced if these organizations cared, “They’d have to arrest half their male leadership.”

Carla and Kelly Groggs turned their love of gardening and landscaping into one of the most dynamic family businesses in the Midwest: Groggs Green Barn. Unlike those box store chains that sell mostly hardware and a few plants, Groggs Green Barn is the only place to buy organic soil in the entire state of Oklahoma. Groggs is also self-sustainable, with energy-efficient lighting, rainwater collection, on-premises beehives and chickens, a restaurant, and offers community outreach of (mostly free) classes to anyone who'd like to find out more about topics like composting, organic soils, and hydroponics. Why should you consider organic gardening? Because it's less expensive, takes less work, and tastes better than growing your garden with pesticides. Bonus: you reduce your cancer exposure, too! Do you live in an apartment? No prob. Carla tells you how to grow your own indoor garden.

In the third and final part, Dianne Post, attorney, psychologist, former parole officer, and author, shares how justice systems are often rigged against the most vulnerable people of the world. We also chat about gender inequality, the outrageous wrong done to the people of Flint, and the lawsuit Dianne Post filed - and won - against the United Nations on behalf of the Roma of Kosovo who was forcibly poisoned. Side note: It's been over a year and the United Nations still hasn't paid the settlement or apologized for what they did. "People think justice is a zero-sum game. If I give you one of these then I have one less. Instead of, if I give you justice, that means more justice for everybody."

I'm super excited to welcome back Dianne Post, former parole officer, turned psychologist, turned lawyer, she's a life-long human rights activist and free thinker. Continuing where we left off last week, Ms. Post returns to break down how all humans, yes, even men, and especially women and children, suffer in our current patriarchal society. Dianne details the psychology of women who engage in victim blaming, judges who turn a blind eye to fathers who beat and rape their own children, and the statistical data of how often women lie about being assaulted. We also discuss the polarization of America, the problems with Linda Sarsour, and the rampant fallacy that "mothers always get custody" in a divorce. "If men ask for custody, they win 70% of the time. Even if they're proven to have committed domestic violence or sexual assault".
