In the second installment of our series with Jon Vought from Rescue 1 CBD, we discuss the evolving relationship between marijuana use and the fire service. The conversation covers legal nuances, state-specific precedents, and the slow shift towards acceptance of marijuana, especially for first responders. 

We can't explore the challenges of marijuana within the fire service without highlighting the benefits of CBD, particularly for sleep and inflammation, given that CBD is legal and THC-free (if you order from reputable suppliers like Jon).

Rescheduling marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III, while a step forward, is not an immediate game-changer for fire departments.
