Leaf Brief Podcast: Episode 1

Explore New Mexico’s cannabis landscape with Andy Lyman, a Santa Fe Reporter staff writer who has been following the plant as a journalist since before the state enacted its first medical-only program and co-hosted the award-winning Growing Forward podcast. Now that adult-use recreational sales are in full swing, he’s launching a new audio show to compliment his monthly e-newsletter: Leaf Brief Podcast.

This month, hear from Mateo Frazier, who knows a lot about a lot, but about water systems and cannabis in particular. He lives just outside Española, where he’s in the process of launching a cannabis company soon. And, he serves on his local acequia board, giving him a unique perspective on the state’s newest industry and its most precious resource. Plus, he’s a long time associate professor at Northern New Mexico College and he’s been part of its new education programs around cannabis.
