Reasonable minds 88 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 1: can disagree. It just doesn't make any sense. It doesn't 89 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 1: make any it doesn't make any economic sense. It doesn't 90 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,359 Speaker 1: make any business sense. When you look strictly at the numbers, 91 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 1: the numbers you constantly tell in your go Green segments 92 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 1: ever since you started doing them about cannabis businesses are 93 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: They're just astronomical. And to think that there are cities, 94 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: let alone states, but cities and counties in California, a 95 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 1: majority of them that still aren't allowing it the fuck Sorry, 96 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: I so it's no, it really is the mark. And 97 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: we sit here, and as we sit here in a 98 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: time where a country needs money, people are hurting more 99 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 1: than a lot of people listening to this, you know, 100 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 1: maybe we get a and I say week because I'm 101 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 1: hoping I get a check we all can get some money, right, 102 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 1: we're all hurting. A lot of us are hurting, folks. 103 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 1: And the bit of think they just passed the bill. Yeah, 104 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: to think two millions made in Arkansas because of this 105 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 1: going medical only, folks. If it's recreational, it's even more, 106 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: and not even more, a lot more. And when you 107 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: look at your cities, when Mark said, oh, to think 108 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 1: of all the cities, even here in California, there could 109 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 1: be so many more cities doing this. It's just funny 110 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 1: how when people think, oh, I wonder if people are 111 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 1: doing this.

So as this lady who you know, 171 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: my daughter's coach, said, I use it for injuries. Now 172 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 1: it's great, Thank you so much. I can't wait to 173 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: try it. And I was just happy to think that, 174 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: you know, the day has come now where Christmas gift 175 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: is a pre role joint and some see rather than 176 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 1: you know, a bottle of wine, wine in a bag. 177 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:47,440 Speaker 1: I don't want to give her a bottle of wine 178 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,439 Speaker 1: or a package of the Sea's candy, box of the 179 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 1: seas candy, right exactly, sugar poison or actually that actually 180 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: makes more sense now, A couple of joints and the 181 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 1: sea's candy, you know, that's bad actually goes a little hand. 182 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 1: But either way, it was normally. It's becoming more normalized 183 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: at least a little bit, at least enough where you 184 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: can do that. What four years ago, five years ago, 185 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: you you wouldn't do that, right, you wouldn't. Here's a joint. 186 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: You wouldn't do that. Maybe you would, but I would, actually, 187 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 1: I actually would have. I mean even three years ago, 188 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,439 Speaker 1: for sure. I did it at a Christmas party. Um, 189 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 1: so most people, I think most people would be more 190 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,839 Speaker 1: comfortable or are doing it now doing that type of thing, 191 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 1: and more receptive to it. Maybe three years ago somebody 192 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 1: like that would have been afraid to publicly oh no, 193 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 1: well thank you anyway, you know, rather than taking it 194 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 1: and being open about it. So here's the funny part. 195 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 1: It was a white elephant gifts and my wife was 196 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 1: so mad that I was doing that.

And you know, because we're 240 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,479 Speaker 1: one guys at an issue guys right now about cannabis. 241 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 1: The Georgia runoff, the Senate runoff could decide federal cannabis policy. 242 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: This literally can make it where it can go federally 243 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,959 Speaker 1: legal toward you'll be finally eating your ass and your 244 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:36,680 Speaker 1: words of I won't. I won't eat my word because 245 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: my word said, as long as McConnell is the Senate 246 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 1: majority leader, it ain't never happening. Niff On the if leader, 247 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 1: he'll be the minority leader of the Senate because he's 248 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,199 Speaker 1: the leader. It would be I don't remember you being 249 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 1: all detailed like this. Oh, that's exactly what I said, 250 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 1: because McConnell de play a please. Yes, we're gonna get 251 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: that tape. Pitt play it back. Okay, see I told 252 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:12,719 Speaker 1: you that's exactly what I said. Gonna happen. Ever, it's 253 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 1: never gonna happen. That's all I want to say. It's 254 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 1: a little brother, it's not gonna happen. But the two 255 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: Georgia runoff elections for U. S. Senate seats being held 256 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 1: tomorrow will have significant implications because if both the Democrats win, 257 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 1: then that means the Democratic Party will reclaim command over 258 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 1: the Senate because it'll be even Stephen and the tie 259 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 1: breaker goes to the Vice President, who's a Democrat, and 260 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 1: we know how the Democrats feel about cannabis, and there'll 261 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 1: be a new Senate Majority leader. It will no longer 262 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 1: be McConnell. Where you've heard my famous words, where do 263 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: Senate wills go? They go to die at the feet 264 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: of Mitch McConnell. And that could end if both Democrats win, 265 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 1: but both have to win. It's not one or the other. 266 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: Both have to win. And I just heard a report 267 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 1: tonight that as of today, another one point five million 268 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 1: people have voted. And the interesting aspect of that is 269 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: that in November, for the November election, at the same 270 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: period of time before the election, one point five million 271 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 1: people had voted. And so they were talking about how 272 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 1: it's very unusual to not have a drop off from 273 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: a primary election into a special election like that. And 274 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: in Georgia, did more Democrats or more Republicans vote? More Democrats? Yeah, 275 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: because that's where you had, you had Stacy Abrams going 276 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 1: out there, you got Killer Mike going out there, and 277 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: so like, you know, it's it seems like it's going 278 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: to be possible. You know, coupled with the things you 279 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 1: hear about some Republicans, I'm all piste off because you know, 280 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 1: we really want Georgia and they're screwing us. So I'm 281 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 1: not gonna go vote. You know, I don't know how 282 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: much of that has really happened. In my opinion that 283 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: the President Donald Trump ruined it for a lot of 284 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 1: Republicans out there, Like he went out there and he 285 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 1: only left the Republicans speak for like five minutes in 286 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 1: like a two hour rally that he had out there 287 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: for one election process. He's bashing public Republicans every day 288 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: more and more. So, you know, this this whole thing 289 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: about getting Mitch McConnell out of there, well, and it's 290 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 1: not just cannabis, it's so many other issues. You know. Uh, 291 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: they passed in the the next Act that's gonna give relief. 292 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 1: It's only six checks instead of last time it was. 293 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 1: It's now six hundred because because of McConnell. You know, 294 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:09,400 Speaker 1: if the Democrats were were in the majority right now, 295 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:12,640 Speaker 1: we we might be if Bernie Sanders had it said, 296 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 1: we'd be seeing you know, we we'd be getting taken 297 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 1: care of you know, like uh like it should be, 298 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 1: you know, take care of us citizens over here. But 299 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 1: either way, it's it's a probably the most historic, most 300 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 1: important election, special runoff type election that we've ever seen. 301 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: And you know, no matter which way you're gonna go 302 00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:38,879 Speaker 1: get out there and vote. The will of the people 303 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,920 Speaker 1: will come through if you get off your ass and vote. 304 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 1: And you know, we just saw that happen and not 305 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 1: you know, I'll say it again, we said it a 306 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 1: couple of times. Hundred and seventy nine million people voting 307 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: for cannabis. I mean, it's a it's a train that's 308 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: not going to be stopped. Let me ask you this, Mark, 309 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 1: if you're a Republican in Georgia, uh, and you're a 310 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:09,359 Speaker 1: heavy cannabis supporter, wouldn't you want to vote Democrat in 311 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: Georgia because of that? I would imagine. I mean it 312 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 1: makes sense. It's like, you know, how are we going 313 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:20,399 Speaker 1: to get the cannabis built through only if the Democrats 314 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,880 Speaker 1: control because there's not enough Republicans who uh so, that's 315 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 1: fairly what needs to happen, right, All the Republicans in 316 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 1: Georgia that are cannabis friendly need to vote democratically. I 317 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:37,120 Speaker 1: mean that's true. But on the other side of the coin, 318 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 1: what if these Republicans actually listened to their own constituents 319 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 1: instead of their own private thoughts and policies like they're 320 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,680 Speaker 1: not supposed to do. Because we already know we just 321 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,960 Speaker 1: a hundred seventy million votes. The overwhelming will of the 322 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 1: people is to let cannabis be. I mean, if the 323 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 1: Republicans at the House level would do what they're people 324 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 1: have voted for, that the people that wouldn't matter if 325 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: we need to vote democratic are not right and that 326 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:10,440 Speaker 1: and and you know, that's really how politics should work, 327 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 1: the right way, with good discussion, good sensible debate, and 328 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:23,000 Speaker 1: people coming together over important issues. You know, And it's 329 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: just amazing. It's just amazing to disconnect that has been 330 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:32,880 Speaker 1: created during this last administration and the and the cronies 331 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: that I love Chris quote Cuomo, I'll quote him, the Retrumplicans. 332 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:42,399 Speaker 1: He calls them the Retrumplicans who are more afraid of 333 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:46,400 Speaker 1: his Twitter power and what's going to happen after he's 334 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 1: out of office. I mean, it's it's insane, you know, 335 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 1: but this is this is the world we're living in. 336 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 1: And now we're living in a world. To move on 337 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,160 Speaker 1: to some other news where the FEDS announced a three 338 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty thousand dollar grant to develop a method 339 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 1: to distinguish and I'm reading the headline here hemp and 340 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 1: marijuana and cannabis hemp. Hemp is cannabis. Cannabis is hamping. 341 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 1: What we're talking about here is that differentiating differentiating hemp 342 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:23,680 Speaker 1: with point three percent th HC or less th h 343 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: C the psychoactive elements. So you have people companies getting 344 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,479 Speaker 1: pulled over. We know our guys from Green Angel CBD 345 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,640 Speaker 1: in New York and and so many others that get 346 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:38,440 Speaker 1: pulled over and messed with because the cop thinks it's 347 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:43,640 Speaker 1: th hc uh cannabis th HC hemp that has more 348 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 1: than point three So the Feds and now you know, 349 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 1: as I'm reading this, it's kind of pissing me off. 350 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 1: You're gonna spend three thousand dollars to go try to 351 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 1: distinguish uh. So a cop can be on the side 352 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 1: of the road and go, this is hemp with point 353 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,640 Speaker 1: and this is too and it should all fucking be legal. 354 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 1: Now they're going to spend money. The Dustice Department is 355 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 1: issuing a different federal is issuing a different federal agency 356 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:15,880 Speaker 1: a grant to help develop a method of differentiating hemp 357 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: and marijuana. After hemp was federally legalized under the twenty 358 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,920 Speaker 1: eight team farm Bill Man in we thought we were 359 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 1: I can't we were so happy the Farm Bill made 360 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 1: HEMP laboratories have still a step in the right direction. No, absolutely, 361 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:38,439 Speaker 1: but we've now one step forward two steps back, as 362 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: the laboratories have been increasingly tasked with determining whether cannabis 363 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 1: seized by law enforcement contains two th HC and excessive 364 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 1: point three, classifying it as still an illegal cannabis drug 365 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:56,600 Speaker 1: in the eyes of the law. However, most forensic laboratories 366 00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 1: are currently lacking reliable extract action protocols and analytical methods 367 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,119 Speaker 1: to do so. And so now to that end, the 368 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:12,160 Speaker 1: agency is awarding dollars to the National Institute of Standards 369 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 1: and Technology. Why not give that to the vets? Why 370 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:19,399 Speaker 1: not give that to cancers research? I I don't know this. 371 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 1: This just I don't understand you. You're so worried about 372 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:28,359 Speaker 1: differentiating what has point three percent THC or not so 373 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 1: you can bust more people on the failed war against 374 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 1: cannabis that it's on his last leg? Isn't it on 375 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: its leg? I gotta believe it's on its last leg? 376 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 1: And they want to do this. I'm sorry, I'm getting 377 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:45,720 Speaker 1: as I'm going through this thing. It's just it's ridiculous. 378 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:50,639 Speaker 1: It's ridiculous. Let's see, let me after the method of 379 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 1: this proposal includes a technical technology transfer focus on federal, state, 380 00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 1: and local forensic laboratories through SERED operating procedures. This is 381 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 1: an entire waste of time and money and resources in 382 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 1: my opinion. What do you think, especially when it's gonna 383 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: go federally legal before you know, why waste this money 384 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:16,919 Speaker 1: doing that? God? Because you know that this country doesn't 385 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 1: need any money. You know that we don't need any 386 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 1: money right now. The people of this country don't need ship. 387 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: We we need to find out whether or not hemp 388 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 1: has point three THHC or if it's more. Uh so 389 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 1: these people can get busted and take it in for 390 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: drug traffising, drug trafficking Jesus. Yeah, how about someone cannabis 391 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 1: goes bad and we save that for the next segment. Well, 392 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 1: you want to touch on this. D A hit with 393 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 1: another lawsuit from scientists seeking research and I think it 394 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 1: was the what was it, the Missing School of University 395 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 1: of Mississippi, Mississippi saying that they don't have enough money 396 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:58,119 Speaker 1: or but enough cannabis to do research because you know 397 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 1: they're not making it federally legal. I think that's awesome. 398 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:05,280 Speaker 1: I think that's great that a university is gonna go 399 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 1: after the d A and say, you guys, you're making 400 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 1: it impossible for us to do this research to figure 401 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 1: out what's what, How can how we could do this? 402 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 1: Nearly twenty years at the University of Massachusetts, they've been 403 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 1: applying for licenses and development and all this stuff. So 404 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,360 Speaker 1: all these schools, I think, even more than just Mississippi 405 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,119 Speaker 1: are getting involved. And I just like the fact that 406 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 1: the d A is getting hit with another lawsuit from 407 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:33,640 Speaker 1: scientists at that saying, you guys, you need to make 408 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:38,120 Speaker 1: this federally legal so we can do some damn real research. 409 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,639 Speaker 1: And we all know the hypocrisy. We know who holds 410 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:45,639 Speaker 1: the patents, you know, we we we talked about that stuff, 411 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 1: and and we know that they've allowed certain, you know, 412 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 1: certain facilities and schools to do research. You have to 413 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: apply specifically, and they allow it. But they should allow 414 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 1: it's just nationwide to whoever wants to do it. I mean, 415 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:07,879 Speaker 1: the schedule for drug it's ridiculous there. They're they're thirsting, 416 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 1: These scientists are thirsting. They're aching to do it and 417 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:15,880 Speaker 1: learn more about it because they are you know, screw 418 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 1: the scientists. We know the growth, we know we know 419 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 1: the cultivators, we know the people who are already doing it. 420 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 1: You know. But God, if you could get the labs 421 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: and the scientists to learn the things the cultivators know 422 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 1: and then apply all that to science. However they do that, 423 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 1: how much do you think big Farma plays in that though? 424 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:40,640 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? A lot? Well, it's a lot, 425 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 1: it's a lot. It's a lot. The laws and the 426 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 1: lobbyists and the big pharmacy. These scientists are basically saying 427 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 1: to them to announce his lawsuits to point out that 428 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 1: the efforts to conduct meaningful research in the cannabis medicines 429 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 1: have been blocked for decades. The continued instruction is causing 430 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:04,400 Speaker 1: suffering for people with serious conditions, which indicates the timeless 431 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 1: of this lawsuit in relationship to the c n d 432 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:11,399 Speaker 1: S recent boat. According to the maps in the lawsuit, 433 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:13,440 Speaker 1: I mean, and when I read that, I go to 434 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:18,880 Speaker 1: this thing and thinking for people with serious conditions like cancer, 435 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:26,920 Speaker 1: how much money's made their folks epilepsy seizures, let alone 436 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 1: your common headache.

That would be nice, right, that would be nice. 447 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 1: And research, yeah, that that that's yeah, you need that 448 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,879 Speaker 1: specific type of research. And no, it's just you know, 449 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 1: unfortunately it's you gotta try, you gotta you gotta figure 450 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:23,200 Speaker 1: it out yourself. You gotta use. But then that's that's 451 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 1: the one thing you can't use too much. If you 452 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,440 Speaker 1: use too much, it's okay, I'm not gonna use that 453 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:30,879 Speaker 1: much again, but it's not even for me, what with 454 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 1: the pain like this, I mean for I mean, that's 455 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 1: the research they're gonna say when I say serious conditions, right, 456 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:40,120 Speaker 1: my point is, mind's serious, but not seriousness cancer. I'm 457 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,239 Speaker 1: not dying from my swelling, folks, you know what I mean. 458 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: I just want to get this stuff to where we 459 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 1: could help more people in this country.

It's well, I don't think it's 467 00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:12,920 Speaker 1: gonna take their place a big farmer. I think it'll well, 468 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:15,359 Speaker 1: well it could. That's what big farmer is afraid of 469 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 1: because but we already see it.

I'm surprised, but this guy 491 00:29:56,120 --> 00:30:00,160 Speaker 1: invested five hundred thousand dollars in an Alberta big his 492 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 1: cannabis company called Destiny Bio Science, and he is now 493 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 1: filing a lawsuit against CEO Ed Morose, alleging that the 494 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 1: company used his celebrity status to gain instant credibility with 495 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 1: other investors. Destiny was not a sure thing, quite the opposite. 496 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 1: It was a worthless company propped up by nothing more 497 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 1: than Moros's grandiose promises. Messier stated in the lawsuit and 498 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 1: messire alleges he was granted a personal guarantee that he 499 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 1: wouldn't lose money upon purchasing a hundred and twenty five 500 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 1: thousand shares at a dollar each. However, the business failed 501 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: miserably and Destiny was placed in receivership in May of 502 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 1: after amassing forty two million dollars in debt, with their 503 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 1: state of the art facility in Nisku, Alberta placed up 504 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 1: for or sale. And as we were talking, as I 505 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 1: thought you might know, Joe, he's one of the most 506 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 1: decorated hockey players that has ever played. And neither he 507 00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 1: nor Destiny Bioscience have made any public statements since the filing. 508 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: And I think the moral of this story of when 509 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 1: cannabis goes bad is, you know, investing in the cannabis business. 510 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 1: It's pretty risky. Let alone, there are some shady players 511 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 1: out there. What do you think, Joe, Of course there is. 512 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 1: And I can't believe that I thought Messi was the 513 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 1: soccer player when you know there is a big messy 514 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 1: soccer player. He plays for Argentine, Argentina. And you know 515 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 1: when you said messy, I just thought messy the soccer player, 516 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 1: as I was at soccer practice earlier with my son 517 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 1: as a new soccer on. You got soccer on the mind. 518 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: But you're right about the hockey player. And I did 519 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 1: feel embarrassed. And I'm not gonna lie, but at least 520 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:00,640 Speaker 1: I knew why I was thinking of the message from 521 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: Argentina because I was at soccer earlier. So so watch 522 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 1: those cannabis investments, all right? We got one more here 523 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 1: out of Portland. The headline reads man shot and killed 524 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 1: during gunpoint robbery at cannabis dispensary. WHOA, These are? These 525 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:21,200 Speaker 1: are the kind of stories I really hate, especially you 526 00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:25,440 Speaker 1: know that it just gives those naysayers and well, look 527 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: what happened. This is when you open This is what 528 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 1: happens when you opened up a dispenser, right, that's the 529 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 1: people are gonna jump all over then. And so you 530 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:34,520 Speaker 1: got a forty four year old man who was shot 531 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 1: and killed Monday during a robbery at a cannabis dispensary 532 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 1: in North Portland's officials were called out at about nine 533 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 1: p m. After shots were reported. They arrived to find 534 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:50,400 Speaker 1: Michael Arthur with a gunshot wound. He was taken to 535 00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:55,240 Speaker 1: the hospital and later pronounced dead. Investigators say he was 536 00:32:55,240 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 1: an employee at the cannabis dispensary. And you know, there's 537 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 1: really just not much to say except there could have 538 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 1: been a liquor store. It could have been a grocery store, 539 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 1: it could have been at it could have been anything. 540 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 1: But people are gonna take this opportunity to say, oh, look, 541 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:22,160 Speaker 1: it happened at a cannabis dispensary, and that's where bad 542 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 1: things happen.
