The ChatGPT deal for uni students

The conversation around medicinal cannabis has transformed significantly over the past decade. In Australia, cannabidiol, or ‘CBD’ is a prescription-only treatment, meaning it can only be legally accessed with authorisation from a medical practitioner. But as CBD has become more accessible to those who need it, the saturation of available products claiming to contain CBD, from skincare to pet foods, has left many feeling confused, or unsure who and what to trust. In today’s deep dive, we’re speaking with an expert to unpack what CBD actually is, the common myths around it, and how it’s being used in clinical settings today.

This episode is sponsored by Deakin University, but they have had no editorial influence over the content we are sharing in today’s podcast.

Host: Emma Gillespie
Guest: Dr Talitha Ford, Research Fellow, Deakin University

Headlines: Molly Ticehurst ex-partner sentenced for her murder

Last month, after years of hearings and appeals, the man accused of planning the Sept 11 attacks got a trial date - June 2028.

Two days later, the same judge said his confession can’t be used at that trial, ruling it was the product of torture.

On today’s podcast, on the 25th anniversary of the attacks, we'll explain why the case against Khalid Sheikh Mohammed has never made it to a jury.
