I founded CPN a number of years ago to give a voice to the chronically and terminally ill. I have conducted over 200 interviews across the country - physicians, activists, politicians, but mostly patients. Over 100 can be viewed here on Youtube. Cannabis Patient Network (markpedersen.cpn@gmail.com) was recently relocated to Denver after many years in St. Louis.

About CannabisPatientNet

Mark Pedersen runs CannabisPatientNet, a YouTube channel built around long-form interviews with chronically and terminally ill cannabis patients, physicians, and activists. The channel has about 3,550 subscribers and 177 videos, most of them recorded interviews of 8 to 15 minutes, and recent uploads are infrequent, with about one video in the past year.

The channel's audience is small and is estimated to skew toward adults over 35, with a US base. Viewers appear to be patients, caregivers, and cannabis policy followers. Brand work is minimal; the channel has no sponsorships in its last 50 videos.

Cannabis brands or advocacy groups looking for a patient-focused voice may find value here. The estimated rate is $150 to $250 per video, which is well below the $10 to $30 CPM typical of paid ads, since the channel's median is 290 views and sponsored integration is priced at $20 to $35 per 1,000 views.
