What if cannabis wasn’t just something you consumed… but something that revealed you? In this episode of Cannabis School, Jesse and Brandon light up a conversation that cuts deeper than THC percentages or sativa/indica labels.
We explore the permanent chimera effect — that feeling when cannabis doesn’t just alter your state, it reflects it. From unexpected emotional shifts to a deeper awareness of self, this episode unpacks how cannabis can shape, distort, or clarify who we think we are.
Because sometimes… the high isn’t what changes. You are.
