So 211 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 1: being being one of those people that are are willing to, 212 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: you know, set up there a little tim by Tim 213 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: booth and not know what the future is. You know, 214 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 1: you find out that actually that's where you go sell stuff, 215 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 1: that's where you build accounts, that's where you get you know, 216 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 1: your business started. And I've always been a proponent of 217 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: telling people like dude, show up, you know, uh me fly, 218 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: they've got their clothing line. They've got to show up 219 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 1: to to the to the clothing trade shows. If you 220 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 1: don't go to magic you know what I mean, people 221 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 1: don't buy this stuff. You yeah, it's hot and and 222 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: and you if you set up a booth out there, 223 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,439 Speaker 1: then you're gonna take orders there. And then all you 224 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 1: have to do is fulfill those orders. And as long 225 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,839 Speaker 1: as you can fulfill those orders, because a lot of 226 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:31,319 Speaker 1: them will ask you, hey, can you happen to me 227 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 1: in two weeks? I need them in two weeks or 228 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,199 Speaker 1: I want my money back, and and you're like yes, 229 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: And so if you can't though, they want their money 230 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,079 Speaker 1: back and they won't fulfill the deal. And so I 231 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 1: only know that because I opened up a clothing line 232 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 1: years ago with a friend of mine, and you know 233 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 1: it was called Burtiaga and uh we we had a big, 234 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 1: big buy out. We bought a bunch of clothes, and 235 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 1: we bought clothes. We saw all the clothes there, all 236 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 1: of it, everything, all of our inventory got sold show. 237 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: But when we came back, we had orders of like 238 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 1: fifty thousand, thirty thousand, twenty and we couldn't fulfill them. 239 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 1: And why not because because the guy that told us 240 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,959 Speaker 1: that he could do it just couldn't do it, you 241 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. He was like, oh, I've got 242 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 1: other orders and this and that. I'm like, but I 243 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 1: paid you already, and he just you know, jerked us 244 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,079 Speaker 1: around and jerked it around, and and then and then. 245 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 1: So now we had all these clothes, but the people 246 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 1: that we had the orders with didn't want to buy 247 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 1: them because they were like, dude, I told you I 248 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 1: needed them by this date. You can't have them to 249 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 1: me by here. Then it's a wrap, you know. So 250 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: make sure you give yourself plenty of opportunity to tell people, look, 251 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 1: I need thirty days or ninety days out, but be 252 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,320 Speaker 1: honest with them because they don't want to fulfill if 253 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 1: you can't fulfill those times in those days, then a 254 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: lot of you're gonna lose a lot of those deals, 255 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 1: and so we took a bunch of orders, took a 256 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: lot of deposits, and you know, had to refund deposits 257 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: or what weren't able to close those deals. And it 258 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 1: sucks because you know, you got a hundred fifty thousand 259 00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: dollars and orders and you realize you can't even ful 260 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 1: you know. I mean, it's tough game out there. Bottom 261 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 1: line though, going to these shows is how you grow. 262 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 1: If you don't go, you don't grow.

This place 363 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:27,199 Speaker 1: there where he got shot. There's a couple other iconic 364 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 1: spots where um Al Capone started and a couple of 365 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 1: spots where there was a big building where they showed 366 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 1: where they went up on this like car elevator. This 367 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,880 Speaker 1: is like in the thirties they made this building at 368 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:43,080 Speaker 1: a car elevator was a jewelry building so people wouldn't 369 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 1: get robbed. They had a car lift and that's where 370 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: Capone had his UH headquarters for a bit till he 371 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:52,399 Speaker 1: until he didn't report his taxes. It was great. It 372 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 1: was actually a great show, great time, and we're looking 373 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:58,399 Speaker 1: forward to They just actually signed us to go to 374 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 1: UH Virginia b Gin November. Nice, so they're hitting a 375 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,159 Speaker 1: lot of the emerging states. Oh that's good. You know, 376 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:10,440 Speaker 1: I wonder, you know, is is it the show? Is 377 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,919 Speaker 1: it more. Is it B two B or B two C. No, 378 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 1: it's it's B two B. But you get a lot 379 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 1: this show has more of a grassroots feel. You do 380 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 1: get a lot more people who want to get into 381 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 1: growing or in their state they have they can do 382 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 1: personal growths. So there is a combination of people coming 383 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,639 Speaker 1: in looking for the new equipment, cultivators looking for the 384 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 1: new equipment and the seeds and the soils and the 385 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,639 Speaker 1: security and the systems and all that stuff. But you 386 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 1: also get the other half where they just want to 387 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 1: grow their own. Sure, so it's a it's a combination 388 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:49,159 Speaker 1: of that, I believe would be fair to say. Was 389 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 1: some of the uh, you know, the advanced nutrients of 390 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,440 Speaker 1: the world's there or was it mainly nutrients?

Um, our good friend Bovida 396 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:12,679 Speaker 1: was there as well. Yeah, that's always good man. And 397 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,720 Speaker 1: what about like raw papers? Any of those guys did 398 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,680 Speaker 1: not see raw I mean it's not as much as 399 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:23,879 Speaker 1: you know. There were some boots.

There was a few business to client boots, 404 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 1: such as where they were selling glass, so either a 405 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 1: storefront could come by the glass or people who wanted glass, 406 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:47,959 Speaker 1: and there was a few of those, a lot of CBD. 407 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: There were some ballsy people. There was a lot of 408 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 1: There was Delta nine all over the place. Eight or 409 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:58,400 Speaker 1: Delta nine, Delta Delta eight, I mean Delta in in Chicago. 410 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 1: It hasn't been banned yet. Why so we all heard 411 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:04,919 Speaker 1: about Champs in Vegas. Vegas literally a week before just 412 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 1: banned it literally a week before that. So people have 413 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 1: to check their laws in every state if they want 414 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 1: to do Delta eight. That part of so crazy about 415 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:14,640 Speaker 1: the game. It's like, come on, I mean, we gotta 416 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,160 Speaker 1: stay that ahead of the game, to where a week 417 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: before an event that we prepaid for, you're gonna close 418 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,639 Speaker 1: this down and say it's illegal. Well and well and 419 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: and well, you know that's the There's a lot going 420 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,239 Speaker 1: on with that I mean, this industry has been that 421 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: way for quite some time. You know what the the 422 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:34,440 Speaker 1: cannabis space is pushing the crackdown on Delta eight big time. Well, 423 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 1: you know it's it's it's kind of I have a 424 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 1: double edged short of that, Craig, and I like to 425 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,719 Speaker 1: address it. Is it kind of It kind of sucks 426 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,919 Speaker 1: because all of us have been selling Delta nine and 427 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 1: we're in the cannabis industry and here comes another variation 428 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:51,640 Speaker 1: of the Delta nine, which is now the Delta eight 429 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:55,680 Speaker 1: different all as at YadA, and the people of the 430 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: industry that carried it on their backs are upset because 431 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 1: it's it's one the same thing as the Delta nine, 432 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 1: so for everybody's and it's unregulated, but yet it's not, 433 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:09,679 Speaker 1: you know, since it has been regulated. It's kind of 434 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,199 Speaker 1: like fair game. And the people in the cannabis industry 435 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:13,639 Speaker 1: are like piste off because you could go to a 436 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 1: smoke shop and buy Delta eight and get just as high, 437 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 1: if not higher than Delta nine, which you'd have to 438 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,959 Speaker 1: pay three times as much for inside the dispensary. So 439 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,120 Speaker 1: I get it from the guys that spent and put 440 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 1: put all this money on their backs. To build the dispensaries. 441 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 1: But a lot of those same guys are the legacy 442 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 1: market that all brag about how they broke you know, records, 443 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 1: selling so much cannabis on the streets and YadA YadA, 444 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,680 Speaker 1: now that they're legal. And then you've got these guys 445 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: that are breaking their backs with the Delta eight trying 446 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 1: to build something out of it, and these same heads 447 00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: are trying to turn them in and I don't, I just, 448 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 1: like I said, it's a double or hate on them. Yeah, 449 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 1: I'm just just you know, making that point that you know, 450 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:56,920 Speaker 1: it's like, but you know what's funny is I did 451 00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:00,400 Speaker 1: take some Delta eight gummies and I didn't do anything 452 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 1: for me. Well, it's good just to get it in 453 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 1: your system, right. So it's kind of like the CBD 454 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: where you're like, oh, this doesn't do an I don't know, 455 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 1: I get all that stuff when I smoke week because 456 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 1: that has your CBDs and everything else, including the THHD. Yeah, 457 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: it has it all of the above. You can definitely 458 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 1: just smoke a joint and get all of the above, 459 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 1: are you Yeah, I mean I don't. I'm not. I'm 460 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 1: not hating on it. If you're an entrepreneur, and you 461 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 1: can sell a shipload of Delta eight before all the 462 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 1: states Bannett, then I'd say go for it. Bottom line is, 463 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 1: if you're not going to one of these expos, you 464 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 1: ain't growing.

I think looking at 491 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 1: something like this would be house Justice is doing is 492 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 1: perfect for the cause and cannabis, and I think breaking 493 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 1: down some more stigmas of doors where people think, oh 494 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,639 Speaker 1: maybe not maybe so where when you look at this, 495 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 1: you guys, cannabis arrest can be precluded getting or keeping 496 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 1: a job, or you know, as they arrest people are 497 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 1: they're looking at giving scholarships, are looking at doing so 498 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,160 Speaker 1: much from the articles that I'm reading with the money 499 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 1: that they raised, but not only giving so much back 500 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 1: to the public, but giving awareness because I believe that 501 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:51,680 Speaker 1: there's a lot of people out there that still don't 502 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:59,120 Speaker 1: look at cannabis as being such a racist situation. Sometimes 503 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 1: the racial and justice that is out there, so for people, 504 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,399 Speaker 1: and I'm mostly speaking on white folks are going, I 505 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 1: don't know, I don't think it's that bad. I don't know. 506 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 1: They're you know that my cousin got arrested. He's a 507 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 1: white guy from you know, Wyoming. But yeah, but when 508 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 1: you look at the numbers, the numbers don't lie. It's 509 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 1: double the amount of Blacks, double the amount of Mexicans. 510 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 1: It's just what it is in these bigger cities and 511 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 1: these big, bigger areas where even when you're looking at 512 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 1: just using the same random example that I use as Wyoming, 513 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,679 Speaker 1: I'm sure the more minorities are being arrested there in 514 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 1: that so as they bring light to this, sure it's 515 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 1: great for the country to open their lives. Now is 516 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,120 Speaker 1: this a documentary, you said, or is it gonna be 517 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 1: it's a film, a serious a film, yeah, which a series, 518 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 1: a new video campaign that the BS Justice is doing, 519 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:47,640 Speaker 1: and so it's spotlight and they didn't I don't see 520 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 1: exactly when I'm reading this how many they're doing. But 521 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 1: the innovation focused on organizations that work to keep non 522 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 1: violent offenders out of jail, to help the incarcerated as well. 523 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:01,120 Speaker 1: And we've had to come of those guys on the show. 524 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 1: I mean exactly from the Last Prisoners Project we had. 525 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,720 Speaker 1: I was at Sheldon, I think is that what is 526 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:11,200 Speaker 1: that his name?

I 547 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 1: get it. It's been decriminalized in a lot of places. 548 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 1: You know what you'll lead into. You know, um, people 549 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 1: that are in justice, the Justice Department and things like 550 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:28,639 Speaker 1: that are starting to you know, work on it. And 551 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 1: on the next show, I'm gonna, you know, bring something 552 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,119 Speaker 1: up about that. You know, because there was a uh, 553 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:39,679 Speaker 1: former anti cannabis congressman uh that has flipped over and 554 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 1: he's actually being you know, now he's getting behind the 555 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: keys on the board of a of a cannabis company. 556 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 1: And it's just like that's why but but but that's 557 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. It's like, you've got somebody that you know, 558 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:53,360 Speaker 1: this is the problem, Blue. The problem is this The 559 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 1: only justification the politicians are using for legalization of any 560 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:03,640 Speaker 1: kind is money. Oh what else is There's been no 561 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 1: teeth in any states social equity or to right the 562 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 1: wrongs and right the injustices of the minority who has 563 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 1: been disproportionately impacted by this war on on drugs and 564 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 1: war on cannabis, that stuff ship. I mean, it's these 565 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,879 Speaker 1: if only the politicians would use the excuse everybody should 566 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,120 Speaker 1: have some of this because it's medicine, and everybody who 567 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 1: was convicted of ship shouldn't be shouldn't it shouldn't have 568 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:32,680 Speaker 1: been and it should be expunge. That's why it should 569 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:36,120 Speaker 1: be legalized, not we can make a gabillion dollars. Well, 570 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 1: that's why that stuff takes a second seat to all 571 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 1: this stuff. Well, that's what I'm saying on Well, it's 572 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 1: great that Chris Rock does something like that, you know, 573 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 1: but it's it's not like it's not like it's news, 574 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 1: you know, it's not like it's brand new, breaking people, 575 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 1: Craig breaking. There's a lot of people that live under 576 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 1: a different rock than us, you know what I mean. 577 00:28:55,600 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 1: And yeah, but my point is, Craig to us, I 578 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 1: think it's not because we're so in it, right and 579 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 1: we see it, you see it. So I think it's 580 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: fair to say that there's a lot of people out 581 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 1: there that don't that maybe Chris Rock fans, that maybe 582 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 1: just fans in general of movies and theater. When you 583 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 1: put it out, especially on PBS. I'm not saying it's 584 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 1: a bad thing. No exactly, I don't think you are. 585 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 1: I'm thinking you're I feel I feel that you're saying 586 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 1: people should know this. They you know, we all know this. 587 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 1: I don't think they do. That's why I think the 588 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,959 Speaker 1: more people exposed to it and they put it together 589 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: a good way than you know. And that's why I'm 590 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 1: saying it too. And that's why I think, because I 591 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 1: guess my point was, it's not I mean, to the 592 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 1: people who matter, what are the fucking politicians who vote 593 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 1: on this ship. They already know, they already know. So 594 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: the mass population needs to be educated more. And that's 595 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 1: where Chris Rock could come in and educate the masses more. 596 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 1: And maybe the more of the masses that are educated, 597 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 1: the more that they can turn up against their uh 598 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 1: senators and and and presentatives and say, look, you know, 599 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 1: change this, so we're gonna vote you out. He's turn 600 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 1: more heads, more rocks more. For me, it's not about 601 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 1: Chris Rock. It's about the guys that are you know, 602 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 1: in prison, that are still in prison for this cannabis plant. 603 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 1: Whether you're white, black, green, yellow, you know, I don't 604 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:22,000 Speaker 1: care purple or pink. You know, I look at it 605 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 1: and say, and yes, but to to to go to 606 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 1: the point that minorities have been absolutely targeted. But the 607 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: thought to me is that it's about all people that 608 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 1: are busted right now for this freaking plant that have 609 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 1: been that are sitting there while you got the same 610 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 1: people that put them behind doors, the cops. There's cops 611 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 1: that own these dispensaries. There's cops that own these freaking grows. 612 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 1: There are people in the Congress that own these grows. 613 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: That is ship they should all be ox you know, 614 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 1: I told you they should be and they shouldn't be. 615 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 1: They should be banned from it, you know, and and 616 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:06,479 Speaker 1: and you know, but but but it's but I think 617 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 1: it's blue is set in the past. You know it 618 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,239 Speaker 1: was illegal van, but you know it's legal now. So 619 00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 1: I hate on them for getting in the game. No, look, 620 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 1: I'm not that's more of a Joe statement, right that. 621 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 1: Joe's more of the one you know that's like yo. 622 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 1: But but I'll tell you though, it's really it's really 623 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 1: kind of you can't hait on get in the game 624 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: out it's legal.
