This week Rachel chats to Niamh. Niamh is a 30-year-old woman who has used cannabis since her early 20s. As a younger person she enjoyed consuming cannabis because it helped her switch off from some difficult things, but as an adult she finds it helps her focus.

Niamh is very active and has played sport at an elite level. She is currently a soccer player but has dabbled in rugby, hockey, swimming, cycling, mountain biking and triathlon.

Please welcome our very own Sporty Spice, Niamh.

In today's episode, Rachel chats to Claire. Claire works in the not-for-profit sector in Naarm, Melbourne and she is a self-appointed expert in Russian prison tattoos.

A 'two-toke-Tina', Claire uses medicinal cannabis for PMDD and a condition she cannot pronounce.

I won’t try to pronounce it either, but I think the short story is that it involves really bad knee pain.

On the A Side this week, Rachel talks to Dr. Steve Ellen, psychiatrist, professor, author, and, let’s be honest, a bit of a bloody legend.

He’s worked everywhere from cancer wards - to transplant units - to HIV clinics.

Steve co-wrote Mental - a book that helps people actually keep their mental health - and he’s a regular in the media — where he somehow manages to make psychiatry sound fun.

Put simply: he’s the kind of bloke you’d trust with your brain, your heart, and maybe even your Netflix password.
