·49 min·3 clips

The CLIMB Act could let cannabis companies list on NASDAQ or the New York Stock Exchange.

1. Cannabis Legalization News focuses on the CLIMB Act, DOJ rescheduling delays, and CMS rules for full-spectrum CBD products. 2. Tom hosts the show and says he and Miggy cover cannabis legalization stories from the previous week. 3. The episode uses the CLIMB Act as its main hook because the bill would let cannabis companies list on U.S. exchanges. 4. Tom says the filed CLIMB bill is not yet published on Congress’s site, so he cannot inspect the full framework. 5. Miggy describes the bill as a safe-harbor proposal for national securities exchanges and market participants. 6. Tom and Miggy compare the proposal with SAFE Banking, the MORE Act, and earlier legalization efforts that stalled in Congress. 7. The hosts argue that rescheduling alone does not fix cannabis law because the Controlled Substances Act still governs the market. 8. They say Congress needs a broader framework for medical marijuana, testing, and interstate commerce. 9. The New York Times story they cite says DOJ is still delaying marijuana rescheduling under President Trump’s reclassification process. 10. The hosts note that the article relies on an anonymous source and say that limits its certainty. 11. The CMS segment identifies eligible hemp products as edibles rather than inhalables. 12. Miggy says the guidance requires third-party testing and excludes synthetic cannabinoids. 13. The hosts highlight the three-milligram THC concentration threshold and the later 0.4 milligram per container limit. 14. Tom says Charlotte’s Web Holdings rose roughly 560% over six months after the executive-order timing they mention. 15. They use Charlotte’s Web to argue that low-THC and CBD-focused companies may benefit while high-THC operators face tighter rules. 16. The episode also cites the DEA’s Think Twice quiz, which says youth cannabis use declined from 1995 to 2025 across eighth, tenth, and twelfth grade students. 17. Tom and Miggy speak in a loose, reactive style with interruptions, jokes, and rapid topic changes. 18. The tone mixes policy analysis, market commentary, and off-the-cuff political argument rather than formal interview structure. 19. Listeners tracking cannabis policy, hemp regulation, and industry stocks. 20. Listeners wanting tightly focused, low-context reporting on one policy topic.
