New York has given out 165 licenses for recreational cannabis dispensaries since November and they’ve all gone to people with past marijuana convictions. But only 7 of those shops have opened state-wide so far. WNYC’s health reporter Caroline Lewis explains why. Also, the NYPD showed off the DigiDog last week - a robot, sort of dog shaped, that they say will help NYPD and other first responders provide more effective policing across the city. Public safety reporter Samantha Max spoke with WNYC’s Tiffany Hanssen about the NYPD and robots.
