- 0:08Speaker 1: r r oe dot net because I know what it's
- 0:10Speaker 1: like to be a podcast listener, because oh my god,
- 0:12Speaker 1: I am one and nothing. Nothing gets me more than
- 0:16Speaker 1: when I'm in the middle of traffic and I can't
- 0:17Speaker 1: get to another podcast because it's on a different platform.
- 0:22Speaker 1: That's why I'm trying to do it all on erow
- 0:23Speaker 1: dot net a r r oe dot net. Keep your
- 0:26Speaker 1: eyes on the road and the job. Enjoy the exploration. Yo,
- 0:32Speaker 1: what's up? It's that dude that's always asking questions? Yeah,
- 0:35Speaker 1: the question guy, what will be federally legalized first our
- 0:40Speaker 1: full access to marijuana or psychedelic alternatives. My name is Arrow.
- 0:46Speaker 1: I'm a daily writer, a silid wolf. I stand on
- 0:48Speaker 1: the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen, study, then activate.
- 0:52Speaker 1: It is a daily mess, a chronological walk through an
- 0:56Speaker 1: everyday world. My morning writing. As a receiver of thoughts
- 0:59Speaker 1: and ideas, We as people tend to throw things to
- 1:01Speaker 1: the side because we think we're going to deal with
- 1:04Speaker 1: it later on. Go get them Superhero from DC. When
- 1:08Speaker 1: a subject arrives inside of me. Dude, it is time
- 1:11Speaker 1: to dig in. It's still keeping that daily journal, but
- 1:15Speaker 1: by doing the research, the picture is going to become clearer.
- 1:19Speaker 1: This is the daily mess which will become legal. First,
- 1:23Speaker 1: will the United States legalize marijuana coast to coast or
- 1:28Speaker 1: the so called psychedelics that Robert Kennedy Junior is pushing for. First,
- 1:32Speaker 1: To make it clear, marijuana is not a psychedelic. They
- 1:37Speaker 1: are two completely different platforms or releases. Robert F. Kennedy
- 1:42Speaker 1: has spoken in favor of expanding research so that millions
- 1:46Speaker 1: of people can have legal access to some sort of therapy.
- 1:51Speaker 1: But if this was a race, what's cleared first one
- 1:54Speaker 1: hundred percent of wrongdoing, It's going to be pot or
- 1:58Speaker 1: psychedelic drugs? Who gets it? Those who make this their
- 2:01Speaker 1: living the pros. They are standing behind the national legislation
- 2:06Speaker 1: of marijuana first, mainly because it has moved further down
- 2:11Speaker 1: the path than any other thing. Federal law still classifies
- 2:15Speaker 1: marijuana as being illegal, but Washington is currently under a
- 2:19Speaker 1: lot of pressure to reform the cannabis laws. And yes,
- 2:22Speaker 1: there are a few doctors that do practice with psychedelic help.
- 2:27Speaker 1: Oregon and Colorado have legalized its use, but it's still
- 2:32Speaker 1: not enough to sway the experts who say marijuana will
- 2:35Speaker 1: be legalized nationally. First, Hey, coming up next, speaking of
- 2:40Speaker 1: things that impair your mind? What's wrong here? We can
- 2:44Speaker 1: have a power drink, but we can't drink and drive.
- 2:48Speaker 1: What's the situation? Hey, welcome back to the daily mess.
- 2:53Speaker 1: Why is it okay to drive while chugging down a
- 2:57Speaker 1: power drink? But oh, you're going to jim if you've
- 3:01Speaker 1: got alcohol or pot in your system. All right, here's
- 3:04Speaker 1: the hardcore facts. Society regulates impairment. It's not about the substance,
- 3:11Speaker 1: it's about the impairment. Power drinks don't take over your judgment,
- 3:17Speaker 1: reaction time, and coordination of making decisions. Power drinks are caffeine.
- 3:23Speaker 1: Caffeine improves your alertness. This is why the laws focus
- 3:27Speaker 1: on alcohol. Research show drugs and alcohol are far more
- 3:32Speaker 1: likely to cause an accident. The line becomes cloudy with
- 3:36Speaker 1: power drinks because you know what, when you really break
- 3:39Speaker 1: it down, as much as you consume. The thing is, though,
- 3:42Speaker 1: is that you get the jitters, You get panicked. You
- 3:45Speaker 1: have impaired concentration, which can also make driving totally one
- 3:49Speaker 1: hundred percent safe but yet you can still drive on
- 3:51Speaker 1: it legally. What's the story here? The question we need
- 3:55Speaker 1: to be asking is can you safely operate the vehicle
- 3:59Speaker 1: that you're presently in without your judgment and abilities being impaired?
- 4:05Speaker 1: What is your next decision going to be? I'm Ryl,
- 4:10Speaker 1: and that's the daily mess.
