Have you tried embedding the live YouTube stream here?

I have not. Is that a thing? Now I must go read about doing just that!
I read that you can set it up on your end and I’ve watched YouTube videos embedded here, seems likely
We’ve been going back and forth about upgrading the site to host live video, and I brought this exact alternative up with @Sidco_Cat
@sidco thoughts?
Hmmmm… the embed code doesn’t work.
Lets see if the normal sharing works…
Doesn’t seem to work. But the links are here for anyone who wants to come and watch. Starting soon. 
And this weeks stream failed. 
Apparently, even though I could hear my guest, the OBS wasn’t pushing that out to the stream. So I’ve taken the footage down.
Still not sure why the OBS didn’t push her voice through like my guest from last week. But I’m learning.
Thanks for the support on this. I hope that I’ll see some more traction in coming weeks - live from a cannabis grow and then live from a cannabis event in Michigan.
Seems good to me. Maybe other people will agree too.

Bummer about the audio issues. I had the stream pulled up while at work, but was on mute. I wish I would have tried to listen to 2 seconds and maybe I could have helped you sort out the audio issues. I used to stream, I know how annoying the audio issues can be. Good luck sorting it out, feel free to message me if you think you need help.
Please keep the stream going, and don’t let minor set backs like this stop you. I think its a wonderful stream with good info, and it will surely pick up sooner or later if you keep with the consistency. I enjoy the format and style much more than 90% of cannabis and cannabis news type of content on youtube. I admittedly am typically a lurker, hardly ever sub or comment or anything but I will try to remember to, as that is the best way I can help you reach more people!

Hey all - hope you caught my last two live and in-person streams where I covered a local cannabis grow operations (first time IRL, some major hiccups!) and my coverage of last weeks MICIA event at Torch Lake (multiple videos, I think captured the news and the fun!).

#CannaUS Trump now agrees with Harris that cannabis legalization might be a good idea and that states should have rights! Way to go Nancy Mace for fighting to good fight with Republicans across the nation!
cannascience - What about these new Breath Analyzers for detecting cannabis usage in suspected impaired drivers? And another study (out of Pennsylvania) shows that using cannabis doesn’t increase other drug use (aka the gateway myth) but instead shows decreases. Now we have seen studies on decreases for opiates and stimulants. What’s next - ED and cholesterol drugs?
#CannaMichigan CRA Announces Formal Complaint against Hongrui for multiple violations including lack of security systems, making material changes, and routinely being over plant counts, sometimes even double the amount of plants! And Formal Complaint against One Love Labs for bringing in Hemp THCa from out of state. And let’s talk disciplinary action reports!

#CannaBusts a tiny dip into the busts around the globe
#CannaUS No movement on Farm Bill, legalization, DOOBIE act, and no news on rescheduling activities at the DOJ. All eyes on the DNC and Trump’s stump speeches around the country. If something else happens, I’ll let you know!
cannascience - Let’s talk about the Nugg MD survey and the CDC survey which both show people using from licensed facilities a majority of the time AND teen usage on a 20% decline since the beginning of legalization throughout the country. Seems like the science may be showing us that regulated markets are working better than the war on drugs.
#CannaMichigan CRA Announces Formal Complaint against HiCloud LLC - security and survellience, not using secure transport, not METRC tracking your materials. Look out back door operators - enforcement knows and they are on the prowl.

Next we just might be swinging by a local dispensary here in Lansing, checking out what vape products are available, and looking at their testing data. If we can’t convince them to let us stream - maybe we can convince them to let us take photos of the vape products to discuss on the stream.

#CannaUS OMG - did Trump just endorse cannabis legalization in Florida? Yes, yes he did. And don’t think that prohibitionists are not trying to stop him!
cannascience - Great new study about how CBG has clinical efficacy for reducing anxiety. Does that mean strains with more CBG make you mellow and those without amp you up? Only more research will tell. And lets discuss just why calling cannabis a gateway drug is inaccurate and how its being used across legalized states for harm reduction
#CannaMichigan CRA Director Brian Hanna is on a panel with me next week at the NCIA Stakeholder Summit in Detroit on Sept 12. And the day before that I’ll be heading down to CRA headquarters on Grand Ave to provide comments during the Public Meeting on Sept 11.
