Brady Busby on Unshackled: A Veteran's Journey from Combat to Cannabis Advocacy & Congressional Run
Show Notes
An episode from MITA's "Unshackled" podcast recorded at their annual golf tournament, which is also a charity event supporting Arizona veterans. Representatives of the event's title sponsor Weedmaps are present with the hosts. They discuss the tournament's focus on veterans' issues and highlight two beneficiary organizations: Soldier's Best Friend and Field to Heal. Soldier's Best Friend provides service animals to veterans, and Field to Heal is involved in cannabis and PTSD research.
A key guest on the episode is Brady Busby, a veteran and congressional candidate from Arizona. He shares his military background, including service in Kosovo, Iraq, and Afghanistan, and his struggles with PTSD and physical injuries. Busby talks about how he was overmedicated by the military but eventually found relief through cannabis, leading to his advocacy for plant medicine and cannabis legalization.
Busby's story underscores the challenges veterans face with mental health issues and the stigma of seeking help. He emphasizes the need for better veteran support, especially regarding suicide prevention and access to alternative treatments like cannabis. His political platform includes cannabis reform, reflecting his personal experiences and broader concerns for veterans' welfare.
The episode concludes with discussions about the importance of supporting veteran-related causes, the role of cannabis in veterans' healthcare, and the need for federal legalization of cannabis for both medicinal and recreational use. There's also a call for the cannabis community to support candidates who represent their values and to be proactive in legislative matters.
