Who Are We Hurting? w/ Will Stolk (Cannabis Activist)
Will Stolk is fast becoming one of Australia’s most prolific cannabis activists, responsible for stunts including projecting pro-cannabis messages on the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera House, leading to his arrest. He was also behind this year's war-themed 420 protest, taking army tanks through downtown Sydney to mock the failed war on drugs - challenging discriminatory drug driving laws.
He is the host of the Willy’s World Podcast, he is an ex- professional skier, his Dad made Mexican restaurants a thing in Australia and his Mum’s cousin was in AC/DC. He’s recovered from a broken back - twice, and Maxim, Yahoo and High Times have labeled him one of Australia’s Kings of Cannabis.
