Show Notes
It’s the Friday news roundup! The City Cast team is talking about how anxiety dominates the state’s medical cannabis industry, why a bridge rumored to be unsafe in 2018 is only now getting closed, and how one local artist is turning regional folklore into a tarot deck.
As always, our Friday shows are powered by great local journalism.
- Ed Mahon in Spotlight PA on anxiety disorders and medical cannabis
- Our episode with Ed Mahon on misleading claims about cannabis treatment for opioid use disorder.
- Oliver Morrison with WESA on the City of Pittsburgh shutting down The Charles Anderson Memorial Bridge in Oakland after it failed a safety analysis.
