βIt was exciting to watch Casper Leitch invent the television series, Time 4 Hemp. Hiring him to run my office was one of the smartest things I ever did. His work turned out to be a real benefit to the entire Marijuana Legalization Movement. I am proud to say that it was my friend, Capt. Ed Adair, and myself who put him on his journey as a Hemp Activists.β

βIt was a real trip to be a guest on Time 4 Hemp. Itβs a very informative broadcast. Casper Leitch is courageous. He puts everything on the line trying to end the prohibition of a plant. I certainly know what thatβs like. Heβs a smart program host with a quirky sense of humor.β

βWhen I was Governor of Minnesota, I was introduced to Casper Leitch and began to learn about how hemp makes the best bio-diesel fuel on the planet. How it grows 15 feet in summer, so itβs a great renewable resource. This is a remarkable plant. I would rather be uncomfortable with the truth than to be lied to in comfort. Iβve found that I always hear the truth about cannabis when I take Time 4 Hemp.β

βI met Casper Leitch in 1989 shortly after Jack Herer hired him to run the Help End Marijuana Prohibition (H.E.M.P.) office. Over the years, he and I have had a lot of fun educating people about the TRUTH pertaining to medical marijuana. Iβve been a JOINT-Host on many of his radio segments. Itβs amazing how much you can learn from his shows.β

"As a former member of the DEA, I am most certain everyone in that agency is annoyed at this network because of the way it puts the TRUTH about prohibition in a very bright spot-light. When I became a member of the Law Enforcement Against Prohibition organization, one of the first interviews I did was with Casper. Iβve made it a point to listen-in at least once a day ever since.β

βWhen my husband, Marc Emery, first heard about Jack Hererβs book in 1990, he called Jackβs office to order 20 cases. It was Casper Leitch who answered and took care of the order. When Casper started the Time 4 Hemp TV series, Marc got several Canadian networks to air it. When Marc was fighting his legal battles with the United States, Casper allowed us to be returning guests on his show. When Marc was placed behind bars, Casper gave me chance to speak to the global cannabis movement through his network any time I wanted to. Just some of the many reasons why Marc and I love him so much.β

βI met Casper Leitch after watching him give a stirring speech at the 1991 National NORML Conference in Washington, DC. about βThe Value of Hemp as a Cash Cropβ. He gave me a copy of the book, βThe Emperor Wears No Clothesβ, along with a few segments of his television series. After reading the book and watching the shows, I decided to get involved and do what I could to let everyone know that it was time for hemp to make a comeback.β

βThe War On Drugs is BIG BUSINESS for the government. If Uncle Sam had his way, no one could take Time 4 Hemp. I was the first Chief Of Police in any city to denounce marijuana prohibition. I met Casper Leitch at the Seattle Hempfest in 2008 and weβve been good friends ever since. I enjoy it when he has me as a guest on the network. Itβs one of the very few media sources that offers uncensored information about cannabis.β

βIn 1991, I was the first sitting Judge in the United States to publicly denounce marijuana prohibition.

βCasper Leitch is a REAL PRO at interviewing people and producing a cannabis radio series. Heβs an honest, funny, and intelligent friend whose company I enjoy every time Iβm a guest on any of the network programs. Itβs one of the most important broadcasts in the history of the War On Drugs.β

βEvery time Iβve been a guest on the Time 4 Hemp network, I have walked away knowing my message would be heard β uncensored β ALL AROUND THE WORLD. Iβve known Casper Leitch since 2002 and enjoy his entertaining approach to such a serious topic. Iβve sent copies of his programs to many members of the US Senate and Congress. Time 4 Hemp is not only the FIRST of its kind β in my book β there is nothing that can match it when it comes to truthful content about the need to end prohibition.β

βTime 4 Hemp is the most important broadcast in the history of hemp. Casper Leitch has successfully defeated the efforts of the US government in keeping the truth about Hemp hidden from the world. Through Time 4 Hemp, has kept the truth alive and easy to find. He and his work is one of THE KEY reasons that global cannabis prohibition will some day end. Every time you watch or listen to a segment, you are exposed to the truth about this plant.β

βThe first time I saw Casper Leitch sit down and host a television series about how wonderful cannabis is I about fell off my chair. It was back in 1991 when it was taboo to even say the word βmarijuanaβ let alone produce a TV series about it. Casper is one of the hardest working activists I know. If the Legalization Movement had more people like him, the War On Drugs would have ended years ago.β

βDonβt be blinded by the lies about marijuana. Time 4 Hemp can help you see the Truth. I was at Jack Hererβs house in 1989 working on the California Hemp Initiative the day he hired Casper Leitch to take over the duties of the office. It was one of the best things Jack ever did for the Marijuana Movement. Casper has spent the rest of his Life steadfastly working to put the truth about cannabis in front of as many people around the world as he can. I love him. You will too if you take Time 4 Hemp.β

βI found Casper Leitch on MySpace way back in 2001. He was one of the first global program hosts to play my music on their show. One of the things I love most about his network is the wide range of musical styles that is played. You just never know what youβre gonna hear next. It might be a 1930βs Viper-Rag or a Rap song by an artists from this year. It might be a Reggae tune or a Country Western song or Jazz or Rock-n-Roll. One thing is for sure β every song is about how wonderful cannabis-hemp is and is great to listen to when smokinβ out with friends.β

βI met Casper Leitch in the Spring of 1989 the day Jack Herer hired him to run his office. When Casper started the television series, I was the first guest he invited on. When he began the Time 4 Hemp Podcast in 2004, I was his first guest. When Time 4 Hemp was picked up by American Freedom Radio in 2009, I was the first radio guest. One of the reasonβs Casper is called βThe Father Of Marijuana Mediaβ is because he pioneered it.β

βI met Casper Leitch at the 1991 NORML Conference. He and I were both scheduled to speak at the conference and I agreed to sit down and be interviewed for his ground-breaking television series, Time 4 Hemp. He and I have been friends ever since and I am a big fan of the network. I think everyone needs to take Time 4 Hemp every single day. If you get a chance to comb through the archives, you will find that I have been a reoccurring guest over the years. Itβs been a fun way to be part of such an important body of work.β

βTime 4 Hemp provides an intelligent forum for discussing marijuana legalization. The founder of the network, Casper Leitch, is the part of the glue that has held the cannabis movement together. He provides information and resources that are accurate and up to date. If you are unsure as to how you feel about legalizing marijuana, visit Time 4 Hemp and do some research in the archives before making up your mind.β

βI met Casper Leitch at the 2009 Treating Yourself Expo in Toronto Canada. He was a guest speaker at the event and the band and I were scheduled to perform shortly after his speech. We became friends backstage and I can honestly say his work in radio to reach an audience not familiar with hemp is an effective way to provide an education on this subject. Itβs one of the many reasons we like hearing our songs played on his network.β

βOne of the reasons I love Time 4 Hemp so much is because of the way it educates people about cannabis. Itβs the same reason I opened Oaksterdam University in 2007 β to help people find a way to learn about this amazing gift from Nature. If you want to get a Masters Degree in Cannabis, there are two ways to achieve that. One is by enrolling into Oaksterdam University; the other is to listen to the programs in the Time 4 Hemp archives. Casper Leitch is a very effective Professor.β

βThis network is a fantastic source of truth about cannabis. I met Casper Leitch in 1991 when he and Jack Herer showed up for the very first Hempfest. Over the years, both he and Jack have been guest speakers at many of my events and Iβve had a lot of fun being a returning guest on his show. He has given us a platform to be heard on and is dedicated to raising the voice of the cannabis movement.β

βProhibition is a luxury item New Mexico could no longer afford. I learned a lot about the cost of the War On Drugs by listening to Time 4 Hemp.

"Some of the best memories I have happened when I was a Joint-Host on Time 4 Hemp every Wednesday for βLEAP Dayβ. Casper Leitch and I interviewed nearly every member of the Law Enforcement Against Prohibition organization about 5 times before I retired from my work as an activists. I do miss those days and am grateful that I can enjoy some of those moments again when I listen to the archives.β

βThis broadcasting network is one of the loudest voices in Cannabis Culture. Casper Leitch has been a pioneer in the Medical Cannabis Movement on so many different levels.

βI met Casper Leitch at the 2001 NORML conference and have been a guest on his show many times since. Each time is refreshing and fun. I get the chance to share a lot of news with the global marijuana movement. I was happy when High Times Magazine gave him the βFreedom Fighter Of The Monthβ award in February 2013. His work as a pioneering activist is inspiring. Heβs been a true champion of the NORML organization as well.β

βI first met Casper Leitch when I was visiting with Jack Herer in 1990. When Casper began producing his TV series, I got copies to show on a continuous loop at the Amsterdam Hemp Museum. After watching the first segment featuring Chris Conrad, I knew it was the beginning of getting the truth about hemp into the main-stream media. Heβs a funny show host and, as an activists, a brave pioneer.β
