Bite Me The Show About Edibles

Where are you listening from? A single slice of cake in the back of the freezer set off a night we won’t forget and a conversation every home edible maker needs to hear. We open with a warm note from a Scottish listener, then move into a story I didn't think I'd ever have to share. We close with something you can make tonight: a coffee-crusted pork tenderloin that’s bold, tender, and budget-friendly. For infusion, finish individual servings with measured infused olive oil or butter, so everyone at the table gets the dose that’s right for them, whether that’s THC-free or a gentle microdose.

Where are you listening from? Hungry for something cozy that also respects your dose? We serve up a sweet potato chili that hits the infused comfort food button while giving you total control over your edible experience.

Where are you listening from? What if the best dispensary is already in your kitchen? We dive into the real-world playbook for making safe, affordable cannabis edibles without pricey gadgets, and we show how homemade infusions preserve culture, deepen community, and return control to the cook. From the first careful batch of butter to confident dosing and recipe creativity, this conversation breaks down the myths that keep people on the sidelines and replaces them with clear steps, simple tools, and a welcoming ethos. Along the way, we contrast store-bought consistency and fast-onset tech with the soul and flexibility of DIY. Think infused oils and ingredients that fit your diet, cultural recipes that carry meaning, and low-dose options that support clarity over couch lock. We look ahead to microdosing, functional cannabinoid blends, and thoughtful plant pairings with herbs and adaptogens, all while stressing the need to protect home grow and DIY rights.

Where are you listening from? The best cannabis stories rarely start perfect. Wayne’s first brownie was straight ground flower in batter, woody and weak, made in a tiny farm town with zero guidance. Today, his routine is dialed: jar-decarbed flower for richer terpenes, tiny eight-gram cookies for precise microdosing, and a simple rule that keeps him sharp, minimum effective dose, maximum benefit. We go deep on how edibles can replace alcohol without sacrificing fun or focus, dismantle the lazy stoner myth with real habits and talk community, access, and why walking into a dispensary is less urgent when your kitchen and garden already deliver what you need. If you’re chasing smoother pain relief, clearer focus, or a social swap for booze, this conversation gives you tools, not hype. Come for the confessions, stay for the techniques you can use tonight.

Where are you listening from? What happens when a Vancouver budtender returns to Australia with a new language for cannabis and a mission to make it make sense? We sit down with Paul O’Donohue, host of the Give and Toke podcast, to unpack the real-world tradeoffs between Canada’s fast-track legalization and Australia’s guarded medical model. From legacy growers and craft quality to overpackaging, dry flower, and clunky distribution, Paul shares how early missteps in Canada created friction and how direct delivery, farm-gate models, and patient-centered thinking can rebuild trust. Paul’s story moves from experimental use to intentional, doctor-guided consumption. He tracks effects, speaks in terpenes, and treats cannabis like a tool, not a trend. Along the way, he spotlights a stubborn barrier holding Australia back: roadside drug testing that punishes presence instead of impairment. It’s the kind of policy that keeps people choosing alcohol over a measured gummy, even when they want a healthier option. We also talk stigma, why humility beats hot takes, and how corporate and craft can coexist if we protect room for small producers to innovate while larger operators stabilize access. There’s humor too—Paul’s go-to line for turning down drinks (“It makes me sad”) is both disarming and honest. Beyond the laughs, the throughline is clear: better laws, better access, and better conversations. We explore how smart accessories make home use calmer and more discreet, why patient rights matter, and what it takes to bring policymakers, clinicians, and community into the same room.

We open the doors of the Bite Me Cannabis Club to find twinkling lights, a missing “Santa’s Special Reserve,” and a community ready to rally.

Where are you listening from? Your kitchen might be the best dispensary you’ll ever have, but the real magic happens in your brain. We pull back the curtain on the endocannabinoid system and show how edibles—especially THC—bind to CB1 receptors, ripple through dopamine, GABA, and serotonin, and shape everything from euphoria to anxiety to time distortion. If you’ve noticed that your favorite gummy doesn’t hit like it used to, there’s a reason: tolerance builds as your brain downregulates receptors. The good news is that sensitivity can return faster than you think with a short, intentional break. Ready to reset your relationship with cannabis? We’re launching the Fresh Start Tolerance Break Challenge for January—daily check-ins, weekly videos, science-backed tips, and a supportive community to help you rebuild sensitivity, save money, and return with intention. Whether you’re new to edibles or a seasoned home cook crafting your own infusions, this guide gives you the science and structure to make every dose count.

Where are you listening from? Curious whether cannabis can actually help your dog or cat—and how to do it without risking a scary night of wobbling and worry? I sit down with veterinarian Dr. Casara Andre to unpack a safe, practical roadmap for pet parents who want evidence-based guidance, not guesswork. From the endocannabinoid system’s (ECS) role in pain, mood, and balance to the real differences between THC and CBD in animals, this conversation translates complex science into clear steps you can use today. We explore why dosing isn’t simply about body weight, how biphasic effects make more a potential problem, and why journaling sleep, appetite, mobility, and reactivity is the secret to finding the minimum effective dose. You’ll learn how to choose products that won’t backfire, what a trustworthy certificate of analysis looks like, how to interpret “full spectrum” vs “broad spectrum,” and why a CBD-dominant plant extract with trace THC is often a sensible starting point. We also dig into the overlooked MVPs: CBDA for GI inflammation and nausea, CBG for muscle relaxation and seizure support, and terpene profiles that nudge outcomes toward calm or clarity.

Where are you listening from? Holiday tables can be loud and the myths about cannabis are often louder. We wanted to arm you with clarity, compassion, and receipts.

Using current research, historical context, and stories from our own kitchen, we separate temporary effects from enduring traits and show how intention, dosing, and education change everything. If you’re heading into family conversations, we’ve got your talking points and your calm. Bring curiosity, share evidence, and cook with care.

Where are you listening from? What if relief from relentless anxiety became the spark that rebuilt your career, your community, and your voice? That’s the charge running through our conversation with Ishqa Hillman, founder of Canna Boss Babes, whose personal healing journey with cannabis led to a platform elevating women, creating real opportunities, and challenging the systems that keep small operators on the ropes. We start where change usually does: at home, wide awake, and out of options. Sensitive to pharmaceuticals and drawn to plant medicine, Ishqa used cannabis to sleep, breathe, and slowly re-enter the world. She breaks down how Canna Boss Babes was born to end gatekeeping and reward agency, guided by two rules: handle your own business first, and make up your own mind. Connection isn’t a buzzword here, it’s a job filled, a door opened, a life re-routed.

Where are you listening from? Start with a kitchen timer and an open mind. We’re digging into how a long, loving relationship with cannabis changes as life changes—and how a mindful reset can make every milligram count again. With public health researcher and cannabis educator Amanda Reiman, we connect the dots from early Bay Area dispensary lounges born out of the HIV/AIDS movement to today’s crowded shelves, where choice is abundant but guidance is rare. We talk about the real reasons tolerance can drop as we age, especially for women, through the lens of the endocannabinoid system and hormones. Amanda walks through a practical 28‑day tolerance break, what those manageable withdrawal‑like blips mean, and a simple framework for re‑entry: define your goal, start low, go slow, and notice. We unpack mindful consumption as awareness without judgment, choosing non‑smoked methods when they serve you better, and finding your minimum effective dose so you feel more with less. That middle voice matters: between activism that denies risk and prohibition that denies benefit, the future lives in honest, harm‑reduction‑focused habits. We also explore effect‑based edibles that pair cannabinoids, terpenes, and botanicals—think valerian for sleep, green tea and yerba mate for energy, CBN or THCV for targeted outcomes. It’s the entourage effect, leveled up. Along the way, we address why social consumption spaces support safety for naive users, how to shop smarter for CBD (hint: dispensary testing beats gas‑station labels), and why state‑funded research is finally unlocking studies the federal system stalled. Whether you’re recalibrating after years of daily use or starting fresh, this conversation offers practical tools to rebuild joy, reduce risk, and keep your relationship with the plant evolving with you.
