Aron Ambrosiani, curator of digital collections at the Swedish Museum of Architecture and Design and PhD candidate, takes one headline — "Swedish museums experience drop in visits, but record digital reach" — and unpacks what it really means. The numbers are big: 130% increase on Wikimedia platforms, 23% increase in website visits, and 10 % increase on Instagram. But Aron digs beneath the surface to ask the harder questions: what counts as a visit? What are we actually measuring? And does digital reach translate into something museums can act on?

Jenna interviews Dr. Lynn Silver, a pediatrician and co-author of a new large California study examining how adolescent cannabis use relates to later mental health outcomes. Using Kaiser Permanente screening data from 463,000 teens ages 13–17 and following them up to seven years (or until age 25), the study compared youth who reported past-year cannabis use with those who did not, excluding those with prior diagnoses. Teens who reported cannabis use were about twice as likely to later be diagnosed with psychosis/schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, about one-third more likely to develop depression, and about one-quarter more likely to develop anxiety. The discussion also covers barriers to cannabis research, rising THC potency and new products, how genetics and environmental triggers may interact, and why decriminalization differs from for-profit legalization and youth marketing.00:00 Why Cannabis Risks Matter00:41 Meet Dr Lynn Silver03:00 Why Research Lagged03:34 THC Potency Revolution05:58 Inside the Kaiser Study08:40 What the Study Found11:20 Correlation vs Causation14:35 How Cannabis May Trigger Illness18:37 Real World Psychosis Stories20:30 Decriminalize vs Legalize24:02 Forms of Use and Family Rules25:58 Closing Thanks and TakeawaysRead the study here.
