1142: Cannabis Redux | Skeptical Sunday

What do you got to lose? That's all true. OK, so now let's talk about the bad things that are associated with weed. Most of the issues we're going to discuss are from chronic use and chronic use is considered to be more than twice a week.

Yeah. No, I know the dudes you're talking about. Actually, OK, a little sidebar, because I bet these guys all fell into this. Before we get on to the really bad things, you won't be surprised to learn this somewhat benign effect of chronic use. Stoner voice and stoner laugh. They're real and documented.

No, no, no. Chronic users experience disruptions in motor circuitry, which leads to stoner voice. It's not just Hollywood. It's actually real.

True. But there are real negatives. So let me emphasize this. The most negative effects from cannabis come from when you smoke. At what point in the brain's development you use cannabis. That does make more sense. Right. Let's start with the most crucial. In your mother's womb, it is... Just a bad idea to smoke pot when you're in your mother's womb. Okay, so don't be a stoner, baby.

Okay, little joke aside, that's obviously the mother who's using cannabis. Experts say it's really bad. THC crosses the placenta. Fetuses, like adults, have cannabinoid receptors and cannot handle THC or CBD. Experts are very clear on this. Don't use cannabis or CBD when you're pregnant. Like, none. Zip. Zero. Yet, shockingly, women do it.

And like I said, the problem is the hype on medical cannabis and CBD is way ahead of the data. So there are literally people telling pregnant women to take a little CBD. It's just not good. And if you're fortunate enough to have had a mother who didn't use cannabis, you can still screw up your brain, especially for young men, by using cannabis at the other crucial time in brain development, youth.

Male brains and female brains develop differently. Young men's brains, it's the prefrontal cortex that develops more slowly, which actually is where one of the things is that we can run the movie forward and look at consequences of our actions. That's in the prefrontal cortex, which explains why young men not having a fully developed prefrontal cortex... Do stupid things.

I certainly can speak for myself. And it is in youth that most people try cannabis. And I mean, it's fun when you're young to go out and experiment. And in fact, I did it. Full disclosure, that's exactly when I was trying cannabis. These effects we're talking about are far worse for chronic use. It can lead to depression and anxiety.
