Speaker 4: Now for the audience that doesn't know who you are

72
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 4: or what forty tons is or you know, this is

73
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 4: a brand that has kind of built itself around social equity.

74
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 4: You heard me at the opening monologue kind of tell

75
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 4: you about like, you know, nobody should be in prison

76
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 4: for a plant, especially now when in over half the

77
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 4: states it's legal. And more importantly, can you imagine sitting

78
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 4: in prison right now for life nonviolent criminal, or even

79
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 4: for a period gosh, any period of time? I mean

80
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 4: one day is too many days, right, And you've now

81
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 4: got a phenomenal you know, just just a kind of

82
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 4: a hair raising story about your experiences. I know your

83
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 4: wife is also co founder, another gentleman that you helped

84
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 4: get out of prison for life. So tell me a

85
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 4: little bit about your story and how you got into

86
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 4: this industry and the vision and the inspiration behind it.

87
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: Sure, so it all started, you know, twenty something years back.

88
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 1: You know, my friend Corbain Cooper and I, you know,

89
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: we're legacy guys selling weed, right, and we were back then,

90
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: we were selling the Mexican compressed brick weed. Yeah, you know,

91
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 1: and that's how you got the forty tons. I don't

92
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 1: think anyone could sell forty tons of a chronic back then. No,

93
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: it wasn't even made. How do you think the whole

94
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 1: market produced that much? But but yeah, so that that's

95
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: kind of where it originally started. And then you know, unfortunately,

96
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,039
Speaker 1: you know, over the years and with prohibition and with

97
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 1: the way you know, the laws are on this plant,

98
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 1: you know, lots of people got locked up, many black

99
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 1: and brown, and a lot of folks you know, caught

100
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 1: life sentences or quasi life sentences due to technicalities like

101
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 1: you know, having a two strikes and so Corraine ended

102
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 1: up getting a life sentence. And in twenty twenty when

103
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 1: we you know, when right at the beginning of the pandemic,

104
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:47,920
Speaker 1: you know, we had a couple of opportunities. There was

105
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,839
Speaker 1: a lot of organizations out there that were advocating on

106
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 1: his behalf, from you know, Last Prisoner Project to Freedom

107
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 1: Grow Life for pot can do, Clemency Project, Mission Green

108
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:01,159
Speaker 1: and many more. And what was happening was was each

109
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,279
Speaker 1: one of those organizations was kind of like working in

110
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:07,479
Speaker 1: silo separately, right, And what we were what I thought,

111
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 1: because this is a friend of mine of twenty nine years,

112
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 1: why don't we bring everyone together, bring everything together, and

113
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 1: let's create a brand. Right, And so we created a brand.

114
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 1: This was Corvain, Loril and myself. We decided on phone calls.

115
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 1: It's ironic that this is a financial Friday because one

116
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 1: of the main things that Corvain and I would do

117
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,599
Speaker 1: we would trade stocks from prison.

118
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,840
Speaker 4: No shit. Yeah, so he would, like you would basically

119
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 4: trade on his behalf. He'd call on the order. You'd

120
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 4: kind of strategize together exactly.

121
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 1: Because he's a great He'd be watching CNBC, you know

122
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 1: what I mean, because he was on the East Coast,

123
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 1: so he'd be watching CNBC at four or five in

124
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: the morning his time, and you know, just running the

125
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: plays and obviously you know it's secondhand information after the time, right,

126
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 1: but nonetheless, like after you watch over and over and

127
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 1: over and you read the Wall Street Journal and you're

128
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 1: talking with your guys, you become quasi good. Yeah, absolutely,

129
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 1: we run some loss some you know what I mean. Like,

130
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 1: you know, we took a couple hundred bucks and flipped

131
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 1: it up to quite a few thousand, gave it back,

132
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 1: brought it back again, you know. But during those phone calls,

133
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 1: we would have conversations about building something, and so we

134
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,280
Speaker 1: got an opportunity to be able to do that, and

135
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 1: so we did. And you know, when it was asked

136
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 1: of me to you know, put together a brand, put together,

137
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 1: you know, a story, put together what it was, the

138
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,040
Speaker 1: manufacturing partner at the time said, we'll do all the logistics,

139
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:22,599
Speaker 1: back end stuff, but we're not going to build you

140
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 1: a brand.

141
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 4: You have to go do that.

142
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: So I spent the next three to four months trying

143
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 1: to figure out how to do that. And I worked

144
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 1: with a company called Media Jail, and Aaron and off

145
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 1: Taly donated their time and services and they helped build

146
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 1: what you now know as forty tons And so that

147
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 1: was the early early stages. And long story short, our

148
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,840
Speaker 1: brand is about no one should be in prison for cannabis.

149
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,720
Speaker 1: We try to make it not so sad, right, you know,

150
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,599
Speaker 1: because we don't want to just talk about prison and

151
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,479
Speaker 1: going to jail. We want to also talk about like

152
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 1: our products and what we're doing. But at the end

153
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,359
Speaker 1: of the day, the sole reason for our brand and

154
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 1: the mission behind our brand is about out freeing the

155
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,840
Speaker 1: cannabis prisoners and then when those prisoners get out, they're

156
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: given a second chance and help them level up.

157
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 4: And you know, obviously, when you when you're watching traditional

158
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 4: mainstream media, there's two sides, and there's the side that

159
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 4: that's talking about you know, criminals or criminals, you still

160
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 4: lock them up. You're not getting criminals out, You're getting

161
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 4: people that have got caught up in a system that

162
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 4: have that are nonviolent offenders that are literally behind bars

163
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 4: just for cannabis. Is that accurate?

164
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: Exactly? Like, you know, many people are in jail right

165
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: now for cannabis while we're making billions of dollars right

166
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: So using the word criminal is tough for for folks

167
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 1: that are incarcerated for cannabis because it's like they're not criminals,

168
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 1: right and like, you know, even criminals right in the

169
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: in the typical sense of the world, should have the

170
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: ability to rehabilitate, right And unfortunately in this country, there

171
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 1: is no rehabilitation. And so when there's dispensaries on every corner,

172
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 1: and your children are able to buy weed while you're

173
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 1: sitting in jail for it. It kind of hurts the heart,

174
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 1: you know, And so it's like, what do you do?

175
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: And like imagine, you know, imagine you were in jail

176
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: for doing a TV show on financial literacy, right, but

177
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: there's other people out there doing shows on financial literacy.

178
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 1: But you went to jail for doing a show on

179
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 1: financial literacy because at the time that had happened, it

180
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: wasn't allowed.

181
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 4: Now, you know, I don't typically like to look into

182
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 4: I always say the front view, mayor is up bigger

183
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 4: for a reason than the rear view, because you want

184
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 4: to stay focused on what's in front of you. But

185
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,560
Speaker 4: I think with you, it's important to understand the history

186
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 4: of of what your experience was with incarceration, why you

187
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 4: went away, how long, and then the journey that you

188
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 4: had to get your buddy out. Tell me about how

189
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 4: you guys ended up locked up.

190
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I mean, at the end of the day,

191
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,719
Speaker 1: you know, stuff that we had did years ago came

192
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,959
Speaker 1: back to haunt us. A childhood friend of ours, you

193
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 1: know what I mean, got in trouble and you know

194
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:58,200
Speaker 1: it was a rap after that, and then you know,

195
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: This was years years ago. Like you know, I personally

196
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,560
Speaker 1: hadn't even seen anyone for over seven years, and so

197
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 1: it was just a really unfortunate set of circumstances. And

198
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 1: what ended up happening was once once, you know, I

199
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 1: came home and I got back on my feet, and

200
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 1: you know, Corvan and I were making money with the

201
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 1: stocks and doing different things like that. We were we

202
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 1: were given some opportunities, right, and so those opportunities manifested

203
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,199
Speaker 1: into what they are. Some did well, some didn't. Some

204
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 1: people had our best interests, some people did not have

205
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 1: our best interests. But at the end of the day,

206
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 1: we learned from all of that. And one thing about

207
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 1: me is I'm an entrepreneur to the core. I eat

208
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 1: what I kill, and I've been eating what I've killed

209
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 1: what I kill for twenty five years. So I fully

210
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 1: truly understand what it means to be an entrepreneur. I

211
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 1: understand what it means to be paid. Last, I understand

212
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 1: what it means to really build something. Right, driving uber

213
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 1: is not an entrepreneur. You're working for yourself, but that's

214
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,840
Speaker 1: not an entrepreneur, right. Being an entrepreneur is when everything

215
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: rises and falls on you and you take care of

216
00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 1: the system before you take care of yourself. And so

217
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: with that knowledge, I wanted to help build something that

218
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 1: had meaningful impact. And I don't have a million dollars.

219
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: I'm not highly capitalized. You know, talk about social equity, right,

220
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 1: we are social equity, but unfortunately in order to be

221
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 1: in this industry, you need to be capitalized. So what

222
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 1: could we do differently? That's cool, that's fun, that still

223
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 1: puts out good products, has a message, is different, looks different,

224
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 1: does things that are different. And so that's how we

225
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 1: came up with the concept for forty tons, what.

226
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 4: Was the total amount that you spent behind bors?

227
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 1: So I did a total of all my tenure a

228
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 1: little less than five years total, but on that last

229
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 1: one it was I did two years in jail and

230
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: about a little slightly less two years on house arrest.

231
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 4: Now, your business partner, if I read correctly, he actually

232
00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 4: was part in by Trump. Correct.

233
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, he did nine years on a life sentence. And

234
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 1: if it wasn't for former President Donald Trump, he'd still

235
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 1: be sitting in jail right now. So you know, we

236
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 1: honor and are thankful for what he did for us.

237
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 1: You know, we don't get involved in the politics, good

238
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 1: or bad, We're we're appreciative and you know, we retake

239
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: the face value at what it is, you know, and

240
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 1: you'll never ever hear us bad mouthing Trump or saying anything.

241
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 1: And plus, you know, my family always used to tell me, like,

242
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,319
Speaker 1: if you don't got nothing nice to say, just don't

243
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 1: say nothing. Yeah.

244
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 4: So, and on the politics side of it, So the

245
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,679
Speaker 4: current administration, I know, when they first got in, it

246
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 4: was very big on we're going to decriminalize it. There

247
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,200
Speaker 4: was talk about that as every politician does, right because

248
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,280
Speaker 4: as I said on the show yesterday, I think they're

249
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,600
Speaker 4: going for the stoner vote. They say that at the beginning,

250
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 4: hoping you'll forget at the end of the four years

251
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 4: and from Obama didn't do shit, you know, Trump did,

252
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 4: I think most in terms of especially pardoning and getting

253
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 4: these non violent guys out.

254
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:48,959
Speaker 1: Not only did he do that, you know, and a

255
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 1: lot of people won't tell you this, but Trump is

256
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 1: a major major person with criminal justice reform with the

257
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,719
Speaker 1: First Step Back. Yeah, lots of guys got out of

258
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,760
Speaker 1: jail from the First Step Act and that was probably

259
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,640
Speaker 1: some of the biggest legislation that went through the White

260
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 1: House to help prisoners, not just cannabis guys that were

261
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 1: getting fifty sixty years for selling an ounce of coke. Right,

262
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 1: things like that, like the First Step Act did a lot. So,

263
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 1: you know, left, right, conservative, liberal, Republican, Democrat. They all

264
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 1: have their faults, they do, you know what I mean,

265
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 1: each one's have it. You know, if you're fiscally conservative,

266
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 1: you know you're going to move to the right. If

267
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 1: you're more socially liberal, you're going to move to the left.

268
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 1: At the end of the day, I like to base

269
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 1: my politics on individual issues, absolutely, and cannabis is important,

270
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 1: and so was financial finance. Uh.

271
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 4: In the current administration, there was some uh, there was

272
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,280
Speaker 4: some news and a lot of hoorrah about the last

273
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 4: round that he did by then dead and but it

274
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 4: was it was like one hundred people, and it was

275
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,560
Speaker 4: like if you have these these days, but there's still

276
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:56,440
Speaker 4: literally millions of people locked up for the same infractions. Right,

277
00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 4: So there was really nothing done.

278
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 1: Let me let me, let me, let me back up,

279
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 1: because I don't ever want to just say something's completely bullshit,

280
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:07,839
Speaker 1: but things can be bullshit when it's like it'd be

281
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,559
Speaker 1: like this whole floor if you mopped it spick and

282
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 1: span in this two feet. You can say you clean

283
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 1: the floor, but it's bullshit if the whole floor is

284
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 1: still there, you know what I'm saying. But but I

285
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 1: don't want to take away from the fact that that

286
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 1: part okay. So, you know, as it relates to overall

287
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 1: clemency's and pardons and things like that, you know, the

288
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 1: current administration is doing things towards that I personally think

289
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,839
Speaker 1: that they could just be doing more right, especially for

290
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,719
Speaker 1: you know, cannabis offenders. Right, like they did push the

291
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 1: whole thing. I don't believe they should be in prison

292
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,439
Speaker 1: this that. Then they switched it to no one should

293
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 1: be in jail for smoking weed, right, then they switched

294
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 1: it to no one should be in jail for possessing weed.

295
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 1: But no one's in jail for those things. Right. They

296
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 1: may get arrested for them, but they're released. People don't

297
00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:58,320
Speaker 1: go to prison for.

298
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 4: Talking about prison time. And that's something they didn't exactly

299
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 4: And then you really look at it and it's like, dude,

300
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 4: why don't we just start with rescheduling it.

301
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:05,559
Speaker 1: You know.

302
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:07,400
Speaker 4: One of the things I've learned through the Master Mentor's

303
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 4: Live program is, as our great speaker Marcus, when I

304
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 4: was out in Dallas. I learned that, you know, he

305
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 4: really broke it down. And it's like, this government is

306
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 4: telling you that fentanyl, at meth and heroin and cocaine

307
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 4: is better for you, literally better for you than marijuana.

308
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 4: And it's just something that that blows my mind.

309
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 1: Man. It's a you know what it is. It's it's

310
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:29,200
Speaker 1: it's what your show is based around. Yeah, it's finances.

311
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 1: Everything is to do with find Tony, you know, just

312
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 1: Chris over here in the corner. For me, I don't

313
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 1: even think that it's a reschedule, but just a deschedule.

314
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, correct, if they're looking to put it on Schedule three,

315
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 3: which means you'd have to get it through a.

316
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 4: Pharmacy, dude. And here's the thing. Get that whole list

317
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 4: that I just described, from fentanyl to heroin to marijuana,

318
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 4: ox cond to I'm sorry, to cocaine to ox con.

319
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 4: What's not on any of that schedule is tobacco or alcohol.

320
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 4: Like that's not even on the fronting list, you know

321
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 4: what I mean.

322
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 1: That's because of the lobby, right, so you know, in

323
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 1: one hundred years will probably be in the same position

324
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 1: as alcohol and tobacco is. But we're in the infant stages.

325
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 1: And you know, the first five to ten years of

326
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,320
Speaker 1: prohibition with alcohol was probably gnarly, and it was in

327
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 1: a time when there was no technology, and it was

328
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 1: in the twenties and thirties, and so evolution has to

329
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 1: catch up to where we're at. You know, I'll say

330
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 1: this one percent agree with with with Chris about descheduling

331
00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 1: and not rescheduling, But I think it has more to

332
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,200
Speaker 1: do with the infrastructure that's been put in place to

333
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 1: decriminalize this plan, to lock people up, to get the

334
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 1: tax money from those things, to pay for all of

335
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 1: the different agencies to police it all. Like, that's a

336
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 1: whole infrastructure. If you're gonna if you're gonna disrupt that,

337
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 1: you have to be able to figure out how to

338
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 1: resupplement those things. So then that way there's not a

339
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 1: loss on that side, because if you were gonna lose,

340
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 1: you're gonna fight no matter what, even if what you're

341
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 1: fighting for is wrong. It's what you believe in and

342
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 1: you're gonna fight to the death for because it's it's you.

343
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,080
Speaker 1: So we have to put ourselves in the position of

344
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 1: chess players, and like, how can we all win and

345
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 1: not just checkmate the other side.

346
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 4: Absolutely absolutely, you guys, we're gonna take a break here.

347
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 4: We're here with Anthony from forty Tonks. When we come back,

348
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 4: I'm going to ask him the Financial Friday five and

349
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 4: we're going to get into the economics and business of

350
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 4: what he's doing and how you can learn of how

351
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 4: he took his experiences, his passion for the plant and

352
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 4: is now not only making money when it's with it,

353
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 4: but having an impact. We'll be right back here on

354
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 4: Financial Friday.

355
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 2: We'll be right back with the Financial Friday five on

356
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:31,800

00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 2: now time for the Financial Friday five and you guys.

360
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 4: Going on with the concept of the show. If you

361
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 4: are ever caught up and you need legal help now,

362
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 4: whether this is for cannabis, entertainment law, criminal law, for

363
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 4: any kind of law, call my buddy Fred Stage. These

364
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 4: are with the Fox Firm. You guys, this is not

365
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 4: just any attorney. This is a good friend of the

366
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 4: show and somebody that's helped not just friends here, clients here,

367
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 4: but it's somebody that a lot of people in the

368
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:11,359
Speaker 4: industry know who he is. He's helped a lot of

369
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 4: people give them a call. He's a worth a Fox firm.

370
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,719
Speaker 4: That's the Foxfirm with two Axis dot Com. We're now

371
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 4: back here with Anthony Allegrady from forty Tons, a social

372
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 4: equity brand built around getting prisoners out that are there

373
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:31,959
Speaker 4: for non criminal activity that revolved around the plant. I mean, basically,

374
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:34,360
Speaker 4: they're in prison because of a plant accord, an industry

375
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:38,160
Speaker 4: that's being made legal clear across the country, and corporations

376
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:40,919
Speaker 4: for making billions offut before I go into the cunty

377
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:44,680
Speaker 4: Friday five talking about Freddie, do you feel like right

378
00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 4: now the average person that's getting caught up in the

379
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 4: game that they have adequate legal representation. I see so

380
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 4: many of these kids get caught up with a public

381
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 4: defenders who just jam these deals down these kids' throat.

382
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a great point. I don't think that they

383
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,919
Speaker 1: have access. That there's a problem with access in this country.

384
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,920
Speaker 1: To the core on everything, social equity is about access.

385
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:11,720
Speaker 1: Lending is about access, right, knowledge is about access, and

386
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:15,480
Speaker 1: so in these marginalized communities, typically ones that are poor,

387
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,919
Speaker 1: and you know a lot of them black brown minorities.

388
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 1: These marginalized communities don't have access, and so legal representation

389
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 1: is just as important. And not only that, not only

390
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,439
Speaker 1: just having access, but then even having access to good lawyers,

391
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 1: so even paid attorneys that aren't going to rob you

392
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 1: right right.

393
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,560
Speaker 4: Absolutely having a network that you can rely on, I

394
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 4: think is really important. That's one of the things we

395
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 4: pride ourselves on. You know, we always talk about master

396
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 4: mentors live. But the reason I do talk about that

397
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,639
Speaker 4: a lot isn't just because I'm involved with it, but

398
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 4: it's because I do believe that mentors can make a

399
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:49,239
Speaker 4: world of difference. I feel like every incarcerated person I've

400
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:51,880
Speaker 4: ever had on the show or as a friend will

401
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 4: always tell me, man if I had the right mentors

402
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 4: early on, even in the right game, I would have

403
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 4: gotten further, I would have done better, I would have

404
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:02,159
Speaker 4: avoided certain pitfalls. Accept So I that's something that I

405
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,359
Speaker 4: that I have a passion for us well. And this

406
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 4: is a story that I actually haven't I don't think

407
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 4: I've shared on air. Not too many people know, but

408
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,399
Speaker 4: about two years ago, dude, I ended up with the

409
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,440
Speaker 4: double fell and it had never been arrested in my life.

410
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,120
Speaker 4: And I would travel to Texas to speak about once

411
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 4: a month. I would have different events and networking groups

412
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,399
Speaker 4: out there, and I would always bring like, you know,

413
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 4: these bad gummies or chocolate bars for my buddies that

414
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 4: you know, Texas is very very restrictive, sticking in my

415
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:28,960
Speaker 4: check in, YadA, YadA YadA. One time I get there,

416
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,920
Speaker 4: the suber driver picks me up really nice, attractive older lady,

417
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,600
Speaker 4: probably in her mid sixties, and we get to talking

418
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:37,879
Speaker 4: and she says, thank you for this great conversation. You know,

419
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 4: I have stage four terminal cancer. I'm usually zoked out

420
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 4: on oxies, et cetera. But I'm having a good week

421
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 4: and I'm just doing this to have conversations and get out.

422
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 4: So I asked her what she does for her pain,

423
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 4: and she says, you know, I wish I had access

424
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,399
Speaker 4: to edibles because when I was in New York, I

425
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 4: went to this place called she called it something meant,

426
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:55,880
Speaker 4: she didn't even say med Men's. He goes something mad,

427
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:57,399
Speaker 4: I said, Medman. She goes, yeah, I look like an

428
00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 4: apple store. So a long story longer. She when she

429
00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 4: dropped me off. I reach into my luggage. I give

430
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,359
Speaker 4: her like three or four bars. She profusely thanks me.

431
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:06,879
Speaker 4: She says, let me pay you. I said, now, I

432
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:08,680
Speaker 4: don't want your money. He goes, well, next time you

433
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 4: come in, hit me up. It'd be an honor to

434
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 4: just pick you up for free. I said, I'll take

435
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:14,960
Speaker 4: you up next time I come in. Before I come in,

436
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:16,359
Speaker 4: I text her, she goes, you know, do you mind

437
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 4: if I sell you some That really helped with my nausea,

438
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 4: it'd help with my chemo. Just bring me some more.

439
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,159
Speaker 4: So sells me a couple hundred bucks. I bring up

440
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 4: the chocolate bar, show the receipt. It's non profit. I

441
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,200
Speaker 4: go to the dispensary to buy it. It's not my business.

442
00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 4: I don't sell her or promote it any kind of

443
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 4: products like that. And I do that two or three trips.

444
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:34,800
Speaker 4: Then next time she's like, hey, can I send you

445
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 4: more money. Some of my girlfriends and chemo, yeah, I

446
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,120
Speaker 4: gave them some, and now you know they want help.

447
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 4: So I'm like muling back and for five six hundred

448
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 4: bucks worth the chocolate bars. This next time I go

449
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,080
Speaker 4: into town, I call her up. She does an answer.

450
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:47,639
Speaker 4: I figure she's having a bad day. I get my

451
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 4: own over home, give out the remaining chocolate bars. I

452
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,720
Speaker 4: save her two three bags just in case she calls

453
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:56,919
Speaker 4: me the last second. And I'm going through the airport

454
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 4: at Dallas Fort Worth and like an idiot, I threw

455
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,480
Speaker 4: my wallet inside my checking luggage and I go to

456
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:04,240
Speaker 4: go through security and I'd be like, shit, I don't

457
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:06,399
Speaker 4: have my wallet. They said, oh, no problem, pull up

458
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:09,440
Speaker 4: your Facebook. They went through some secondary questions. They said, Okay,

459
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 4: we know who you are. Now you can go in.

460
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 4: But you know, they did a secondary inspection of my

461
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,680
Speaker 4: carry on bag and I had this bag of gummies

462
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,399
Speaker 4: with a federal and state tax stamp that they that

463
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 4: they arrested me for. I go into Terren County jail

464
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,399
Speaker 4: for three days and I'm talking to some of the

465
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:26,159
Speaker 4: other ud like damn, man, you're locked up for a

466
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:29,159
Speaker 4: double felony because out of vappen in Texas, this is

467
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 4: considered a felony. Just in this quantity, a vape pen

468
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 4: by itself considered a felony. So now I'm locked up,

469
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 4: no bail warrant because it's a double felony. Blah blah blah.

470
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,199
Speaker 4: It takes three days after I finally get let out.

471
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:42,720
Speaker 4: The ladies like, what did you get caught for it?

472
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:44,639
Speaker 4: I said this there she goes, yeah, you've never been arrested.

473
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 4: I said, no, this was the first time I've let

474
00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,320
Speaker 4: anybody out just on their own recognizance, you know, for

475
00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:52,040
Speaker 4: a double felony. But sorry. She was almost apologetic. You

476
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 4: know the cops are some of the cops are apologetic,

477
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,360
Speaker 4: blah blah blah. But I learned a lot. And while

478
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,399
Speaker 4: I was in there, I realized, Man, even once I

479
00:21:58,480 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 4: got the piece of paper that I was going out,

480
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:01,919
Speaker 4: they still kept me in there for eighteen more hours.

481
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 4: Come to find out, they get paid three hundred and

482
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:06,159
Speaker 4: thirty dollars from the state every time you're in there,

483
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,680
Speaker 4: for every twenty four hours. So, you know, Texas in

484
00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 4: every other state, I think where we where Clinton found

485
00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 4: You know, Clinton's era really fed up was dude. It

486
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 4: became incarceration for monetization. They privatized prisons, which, if you

487
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 4: understand businesses and capitalism, if you have a hotel room

488
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:24,239
Speaker 4: with a thousand rooms in it, you got to keep

489
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 4: him filled up, to pay the bills, to pay the

490
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,160
Speaker 4: security guards, to pay all this stuff. And that's really

491
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 4: where I discovered a man being in there lock up,

492
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 4: there'd be this kid that was eighteen years old begging

493
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,680
Speaker 4: his mom for two hundred bucks bail. I probably bailed

494
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:37,400
Speaker 4: out like six kids just be I just felt sorry

495
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,120
Speaker 4: for him. One kid was like driving to his McDonald's job.

496
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 4: They pulled him over for a busted tailight at two

497
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 4: pm in the afternoon. Who gets pulled over for that?

498
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,199
Speaker 4: Because he's eighteen and there's a seventeen year old the car,

499
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,399
Speaker 4: they have the right to search him because he had

500
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:51,440
Speaker 4: a bottle of xanax with his mom's name on it

501
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,640
Speaker 4: in his mom's car, with the prescription bottle that he's

502
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,720
Speaker 4: driving his mom's to McDonald's job. He gets a pulled

503
00:22:57,760 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 4: over felony. They arrest all the kids in the car,

504
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,199
Speaker 4: all a gang activity because you have other kids with you.

505
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 1: Just these obscure laws that the goodness.

506
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:06,200
Speaker 4: So these kids are getting caught up for a joint

507
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 4: kid can't even get a job at McDonald's. You know,

508
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 4: the DA is gonna just probably jam down some kind

509
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:14,400
Speaker 4: of probationary shit. They're gonna fail over some other bullshits,

510
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,040
Speaker 4: and now you're stuck in the system. That's where I

511
00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 4: really understood. Man. It's easy to judge it from the

512
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 4: outside and to say, oh, you know, these are criminals anyway,

513
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,840
Speaker 4: But I really saw the pain and damage that the

514
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 4: system can do. And like you said, they there was

515
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,399
Speaker 4: more drug dealers being drug deals being done in that

516
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,879
Speaker 4: court room, in that jail room, you know, or when

517
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,200
Speaker 4: I was in my little cubes that I've ever seen

518
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,920
Speaker 4: on any street corner. You know, there's tons being moved

519
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:37,440
Speaker 4: in there, no pun intended.

520
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 1: Right, No, that's that's the issue, man. You know, these

521
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 1: are systemic problems at scale, and you know, we're not

522
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 1: going to solve anything overnight. But I mean, if we

523
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:49,160
Speaker 1: can put social good back into the community, then that's

524
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,399
Speaker 1: what we're here to do at forty tons, is you know,

525
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,600
Speaker 1: do social good help folks and make a profit off

526
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 1: of what we help build.

527
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:58,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, you know. And to kind of wrap up

528
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:01,240
Speaker 4: that story, just thinking back right now, I had, you know,

529
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:04,159
Speaker 4: spent fifteen twenty thousand on attorneys, took two and a

530
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,440
Speaker 4: half years of me flying back and forth just to

531
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:08,919
Speaker 4: get them all dismissed and drop down to one misdemeanor.

532
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 4: But when you really think about it, it's like most

533
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 4: kids don't have that No, that's you know, or they

534
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 4: missed one court date. Now you're back to a fellow

535
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 4: me and then and then you're just caught up in

536
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:18,480
Speaker 4: the system. So what I want to I want to

537
00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 4: get into the financials of what you guys are doing

538
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,119
Speaker 4: and to kind of segue into that, I'd love to

539
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 4: kind of ask you the financial Friday five. This is

540
00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:25,920
Speaker 4: a This is a round of questions I ask every

541
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:27,639
Speaker 4: guest that comes on the show because I find that

542
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 4: entrepreneurs always have great stories that can inspire others on

543
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 4: how to make money. The first question I got for you,

544
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 4: Anthony Cooo of forty tons, is what was the best

545
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:37,440
Speaker 4: investment you've ever made?

546
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 1: Man, I got I probably take the cake for the

547
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 1: best investment that's ever been.

548
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 4: On your show, you personally investing in yourself.

549
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 1: No, I'm going to tell you what the what the

550
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,239
Speaker 1: investment was. But I don't think that anyone is going

551
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 1: to be able to be kick wait for this one.

552
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:56,119
Speaker 1: So and maybe people have made more money. So, but

553
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:59,920
Speaker 1: but the percentage multiplier is where I think as where

554
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,879
Speaker 1: I'm winning. So a buddy of mine was investing in

555
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 1: penny stocks and doing little things like this, and you know,

556
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 1: Penny stocks are bullshit, and everyone knows, you know the

557
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 1: pink sheets. Maybe you know you ten ex your money, right,

558
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:13,879
Speaker 1: so you buy one hundred dollars worth and maybe you

559
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:15,920
Speaker 1: get to you know, a thousand bucks, and if you

560
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,359
Speaker 1: ten x, that's great if you're lucky, I mean, if

561
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:22,440
Speaker 1: you're lucky. So I bought some penny stocks that were

562
00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:28,640
Speaker 1: at point zero zero zero one of a percent worth

563
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 1: of penny stocks. I bought one hundred dollars worth. That

564
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 1: was a million shares. That son of a gun stock

565
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:42,159
Speaker 1: went from point zero zero zero one two nine cents.

566
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 1: Oh shit, Now I sold seventy five percent of it

567
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 1: when it got to twenty x. So I cashed out

568
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:54,160
Speaker 1: for two grand on one hundred dollars investment, seventy five

569
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 1: percent of it because I didn't think it was gonna

570
00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:58,399
Speaker 1: keep going right like that? I mean, dude, who the

571
00:25:58,480 --> 00:25:59,159
Speaker 1: hell makes you know?

572
00:25:59,200 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 2: What?

573
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 4: I mean? That's a that's a that's a twenty create

574
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,200
Speaker 4: four decimal move points and a nine time multiplier.

575
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,119
Speaker 1: Like, come on, like it doesn't get better than that, right, Okay,

576
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 1: I keep twenty five percent of it. This fucker keeps going. Now,

577
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 1: had I cashed out at the peak, I would have

578
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:23,399
Speaker 1: flipped my one hundred dollars into ninety one thousand dollars.

579
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:28,400
Speaker 1: I ended up cashing out at eighteen thousand, five hundred bucks.

580
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 4: Hey, you know what, I'm still I will tell you

581
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:35,919
Speaker 4: a percentage return that definitely has the highest rate of return.

582
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:37,920
Speaker 4: And I will tell you I love the fact that

583
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 4: you shared that story because it makes for a great point.

584
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:41,880
Speaker 4: And this is what I think a lot of kids

585
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 4: and adults. What I know, I don't even know why

586
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:45,200
Speaker 4: I say kids because it's my own friends that don't

587
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 4: listen to me. Is especially during the crypto boom, and

588
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,440
Speaker 4: these kids would buy these alt shit coins and it

589
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,200
Speaker 4: would move one decimal point. The one thousand dollars would

590
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 4: be one hundred thousand. I have one hundred. I'm like,

591
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 4: do you have one hundred? No, you can't go buy

592
00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 4: a car right now. First sell it, first, collect your winnings,

593
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,159
Speaker 4: and then at least take what you put in or

594
00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 4: a multiple like you did. And and yeah, you can

595
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 4: look back in the river mirrors a I should have done.

596
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 4: But for every one of those I should have would

597
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:09,840
Speaker 4: have It's fuck.

598
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:11,480
Speaker 1: I should have sold it, would have had it I

599
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:15,119
Speaker 1: still made eighteen thousand and five. Well, of that story, too,

600
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:17,959
Speaker 1: is make your money work for you, make it exactly.

601
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:19,679
Speaker 4: You take your profit off the table.

602
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:21,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I have, I have a I have a flip.

603
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 1: Side of that story that's even more fucked up is

604
00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:27,960
Speaker 1: my buddy who told me to do it, purchased one

605
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 1: thousand dollars worth of it, wow, and he sold it

606
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:36,200
Speaker 1: at two x and made made a thousand. Because he

607
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,240
Speaker 1: didn't think it was like these things don't move like that.

608
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:40,880
Speaker 1: He would have made nine hundred and ten thousand dollars.

609
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 1: To this day, he's still sick over it. You know,

610
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 1: it's a once in a lifetime opportunity. These things don't

611
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:47,680
Speaker 1: happen I take.

612
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:49,680
Speaker 4: I give really good advice, but I don't take my

613
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:51,440
Speaker 4: own advice. And I was guilty the same thing that

614
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,399
Speaker 4: we have. This shitty friend of mine, he invented his

615
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 4: coin called Moby, and everybody's amped up on it, and

616
00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 4: I was getting paid consulting fees in it. So my

617
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,720
Speaker 4: thirty thousand tens three hundred and seventy five thousand, like

618
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 4: a idiot, I didn't even take my thirty racks out,

619
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 4: thinking it's gonna be worth millions, and I bought into

620
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 4: the utility and all the bullshit of it, and sure enough,

621
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 4: it's not even worth a fucking penny. So that's not

622
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:14,960
Speaker 4: that's my worst decision, right. Moral of the story, Dony

623
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 4: needs to listen to himself more. Question number two on

624
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,600
Speaker 4: the Financial Friday five is what is the worst investment

625
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 4: that you've ever made? Now, this could be a business

626
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 4: or a person.

627
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 1: Well, I definitely don't want to blast anybody in terms

628
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:32,880
Speaker 1: of people, but I'll keep it to the financials. Ironically,

629
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,119
Speaker 1: and this one's boring, but ironically, like I put in,

630
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,280
Speaker 1: you know, a couple grand into the cannabis stocks some

631
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 1: years back, and I've just lost parent company and some

632
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:49,760
Speaker 1: other penny one USMJ, which was some bullshit, but I

633
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 1: thought that it was gonna, you know, you throw a

634
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:53,480
Speaker 1: couple hundred dollars here, a couple of hundred dollars there,

635
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 1: if it's it's a long shot. But I invested a

636
00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:57,480
Speaker 1: few thousand and I lost.

637
00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 4: You really are traded. I love that. And I don't

638
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 4: know if Chris heard the story too, but I'm still

639
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 4: I'm still laughing at your story of trading stocks from

640
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:04,720
Speaker 4: prison with.

641
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 1: We were doing options, we were doing the Spider, we

642
00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:08,959
Speaker 1: were doing the spy five hundreds.

643
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then and then they're they're probably listening to

644
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:15,680
Speaker 4: your ship too on security, be like, oh, maybe he

645
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 4: knows something. They're probably buying it in the background.

646
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was cool, dude, we we I got a

647
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 1: couple of those conversations recorded, and Corvane and I laugh

648
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 1: at it all the time.

649
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 4: We take it.

650
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 1: But he got greedy and was like, we gotta do this,

651
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:29,080
Speaker 1: We got to do that, and I'm like, no, no,

652
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:32,280
Speaker 1: we don't. And then we did what he said and

653
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 1: then we lost big on it. But then you know,

654
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,200
Speaker 1: he'd also have wins too, so it was fun. It

655
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:37,760
Speaker 1: was fun, but it was just, you know, we were

656
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:39,560
Speaker 1: behind the eight ball because I mean, dude, we're calling

657
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 1: from prison, and you.

658
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 4: Know, yeah, I think that's probably a good spot too.

659
00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 4: You know, they, like you said, your buddy is sitting

660
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,239
Speaker 4: there watching CNBC probably for hours on end, so he's

661
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:49,960
Speaker 4: soaking up that knowledge. One of the crazier stories that

662
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:52,480
Speaker 4: I have these two stripper sisters in Texas that I

663
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,200
Speaker 4: got to become friendly with. And this girl had a

664
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 4: better portfolio than anybody I'd ever seen, and she turned

665
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,640
Speaker 4: like one hundred and fifty thousand into almost eight hundred thousand,

666
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 4: and I said, where do you get all this? She goes,

667
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:05,960
Speaker 4: do you know, We're in Dallas's. There's big money, but

668
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 4: there's big players there, and she would get her best

669
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 4: stock tips from these CEOs And it's probably inside of trading,

670
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 4: but I guess it's kind of gets negated inside of

671
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 4: strip club.

672
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 1: I guess so as he doesn't hang out there, right,

673
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? So, so yeah, that was

674
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 1: you know, I lost.

675
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:22,760
Speaker 4: I lost that.

676
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 1: I also lost a big time. I invested in a

677
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:31,440
Speaker 1: really nice house in Menifee in two thousand and six,

678
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 1: put in hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of shit

679
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 1: because I was bawling at the time. I go to

680
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 1: jail in two thousand and seven. Uh, and then the

681
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:43,239
Speaker 1: market crash in two thousand and eight and I had

682
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 1: to sell it, and I.

683
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 4: This long time.

684
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 1: I paid five hundred for that fucking house. I put

685
00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 1: in like one hundred and fifty two and a grant.

686
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:52,160
Speaker 1: You know. The bucker who got it got it for

687
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 1: one ninety two. Wow, did I have forty thousand worth

688
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,840
Speaker 1: of palm trees? I had like thirty thousand worth of

689
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,560
Speaker 1: bottlenosed brick backyard, and some fucker got got it for

690
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 1: one hundred and ninety two thousand.

691
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:09,720
Speaker 4: Dollars community now it's seven figures. I haven't even checked out,

692
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:09,880
Speaker 4: you know.

693
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 1: But but but they got it at that right after

694
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 1: you know, like it went into short cell and all that.

695
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 1: So that was probably a shitty investment too.

696
00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 4: You learn from it though, right Oh, I learned it.

697
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:21,120
Speaker 1: You know, there is no losses, just lessons, good man,

698
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. You know, you get accidental

699
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:25,719
Speaker 1: PhDs and stuff that you don't need until you need

700
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 1: them again.

701
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 4: Question number three, brothers, what is the best present you've

702
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 4: ever bought yourself?

703
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 3: Uh?

704
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 1: The best presdent I ever bought myself was a trip

705
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:34,600
Speaker 1: to Peru.

706
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:36,600
Speaker 4: Okay, this was solo with your wife.

707
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 1: This was this was with a retreat, so very similar

708
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,480
Speaker 1: to like a Master Mentors but not quite like that,

709
00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: but very similar. That we hike Rainbow Mountain, Machu Pichu,

710
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,320
Speaker 1: helped the kids in the hospital Amazon all that, and

711
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 1: I thought, and you know, I think travel is some

712
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:57,440
Speaker 1: of the best experiences that you can give somebody, yourself

713
00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 1: and others, because you get to learn so much about

714
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 1: other people. And then when you do things in these

715
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 1: foreign countries that you know, you go to these remarkable

716
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 1: wonders of the world, like Machu Picchu. In different places

717
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,520
Speaker 1: like that, you just learn so much. You deal with

718
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:12,920
Speaker 1: different people, you become worldly. You figure out how you

719
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 1: can work with other people. And I think, you know,

720
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 1: one of my superhero traits is the ability to you know,

721
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 1: be in multiple environments. Yeah, and I think you get

722
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 1: that from traveling.

723
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:27,440
Speaker 4: This philanthropic edge that you have. You know, you mentioned

724
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 4: you were and prove and helping people of the Porpio.

725
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 4: Was this something that was in you before you got incarcerated?

726
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:34,520
Speaker 4: Did you kind of kind of like when I said,

727
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:36,080
Speaker 4: I came out, you know, I kind of really had

728
00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:38,080
Speaker 4: an appreciation for the suffering through that.

729
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 1: So the second time that I went to prison in

730
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:44,200
Speaker 1: two thousand and seven over cannabis stuff that was on

731
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 1: the money side of it, but just you know, cannabis

732
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 1: type things, I said to myself and I was, you know,

733
00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 1: I'm not a big religious person, but I am spiritual.

734
00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:56,240
Speaker 1: And you know, you pray, you know, to God when

735
00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:58,360
Speaker 1: you're in like bad positions a lot, and it's just part,

736
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 1: you know, part of your evolution of your spirituality. And

737
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 1: I said to myself that I was going to give

738
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:07,080
Speaker 1: myself a life sentence to community service. If I made

739
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 1: it through this, and when I got out, I built

740
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 1: a huge charity called the Jump for Joy Foundation. I

741
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 1: helped thousands of kids become healthy fit. I partnered with

742
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:17,960
Speaker 1: the NBA, NFL, all sorts of stuff, you can look

743
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 1: it up. And I just always had this thing of like,

744
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 1: I just like helping folks, and I like being able

745
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 1: to make a living off of what I like doing.

746
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? And what I like doing

747
00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:39,160
Speaker 1: is helping folks and whatever the whatever the help is

748
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,720
Speaker 1: that I'm passionate about. Now I'm passionate about, you know,

749
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 1: in cannabis, criminal justice, whereas before I was passionate about,

750
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 1: you know, ending childhood ob city.

751
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,800
Speaker 4: Question number four is what's it? Question number four is

752
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:56,440
Speaker 4: what is the best present you've bought someone else bought

753
00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 4: or given goodbye?

754
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:00,479
Speaker 1: Either? I would say the best prayer and I ever

755
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 1: gave was to my wife. I gave her three beautiful children.

756
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:04,880
Speaker 4: Okay, I like that.

757
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:05,520
Speaker 2: I like that.

758
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,600

00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:48,200
Speaker 1: The princess, she's a she's a spicy princess.

773
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:54,520
Speaker 4: Alright, here's the queen. Hello. Last question is if you

774
00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:56,080
Speaker 4: could buy what? This is the queen that got the

775
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:56,759
Speaker 4: best president ever.

776
00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:57,160
Speaker 1: Yeah.

777
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:00,799
Speaker 4: Question number five is if you could buy one thing

778
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:02,840
Speaker 4: and money is not an object? What would that be?

779
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 2: Man?

780
00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:08,920
Speaker 1: If I could buy one thing and money was not

781
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:12,000
Speaker 1: an object, what would it be? It would be? So

782
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 1: this is gonna sound cheesy, but I think if and

783
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:18,920
Speaker 1: probably everyone says this, but if you did this, then

784
00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:22,879
Speaker 1: everything else will will come into abundance. But I guess

785
00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:27,880
Speaker 1: I would. I would literally get rid of or not

786
00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:30,520
Speaker 1: get rid of, but I would How do I say this.

787
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:33,919
Speaker 1: I don't want to say world peach, but I would.

788
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,640
Speaker 1: I would. I would end all of the fighting amongst

789
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:41,080
Speaker 1: humans needless suffering, the needless suffering, right, And so I

790
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:45,000
Speaker 1: think if you do that, everything else becomes abundant after that.

791
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:47,160
Speaker 1: Like I wouldn't just say well, if I could, I'd

792
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:48,880
Speaker 1: buy an island or I do you know, I get that,

793
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 1: like that's so superficial, But I think like if we

794
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:58,839
Speaker 1: if we ended negative fighting amongst humans at the government levels, yeah,

795
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:03,920
Speaker 1: we would, and the trickle down effect of positivity with amos.

796
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think the only way to do that was

797
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 4: your movement profit for more, which is pure impossible.

798
00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:13,359
Speaker 1: So would you like to use that perfect and you'd

799
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 1: have to destroy the world over it. Hope that whatever

800
00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:19,960
Speaker 1: the new like organism is doesn't doesn't get the loots.

801
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 4: Excellent, man, Well that thank you for putting putting up

852
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:48,360
Speaker 1: consumer product, we have four. But then we also have

853
00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:51,480
Speaker 1: our products in California, which we have different strains. We

854
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 1: have eight quarters and habs that you can get at

855
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:56,719
Speaker 1: dispensaries and it's you know, different strains depending on what's

856
00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:59,080
Speaker 1: going on. I believe right now we're on ease and

857
00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:01,360
Speaker 1: you can get it's a cereal milk and RS eleven.

858
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,200
Speaker 1: But the and in New York we have the same thing.

859
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,440
Speaker 1: We have four gram eighths and we have you know,

860
00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:07,799
Speaker 1: different strains that are out there.

861
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 4: And if somebody wants to know which dispensary they can

862
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:11,520
Speaker 4: find it, is there an easy way that they can

863
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,080
Speaker 4: look that up. So we're at in California, California or

864
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 4: New York if we have a listen, yes, both sides.

865
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 1: So actually New York. So that's I actually are are

866
00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 1: working on that. I'm I'm literally working on getting a

867
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:26,399
Speaker 1: store located on my new on my new website because

868
00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:30,480
Speaker 1: we are so multifaceted and we're switching software platforms. But

869
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,320
Speaker 1: for right now in California, we're on ease, Okay, So

870
00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:36,360
Speaker 1: we're really focused on on on on developing that relationship

871
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,520
Speaker 1: and then scaling out with dispensaries because as you know,

872
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:41,000
Speaker 1: in California, a lot of people don't pay their bills,

873
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:44,560
Speaker 1: So it's not even worth putting your stuff in a

874
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:46,440
Speaker 1: dispensary if you're not even gonna get paid on it

875
00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:49,440
Speaker 1: here in California. So it's really about picking the right partnerships,

876
00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:51,839
Speaker 1: and we're in the process of doing that. New York.

877
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:55,080
Speaker 1: We're in all the major dispensaries from turt Bros. Strained Stars,

878
00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:59,600
Speaker 1: Housing Works, there's a bunch of them, but much love

879
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:02,040
Speaker 1: to them, and yeah, but we're really pushing hard our

880
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:04,160
Speaker 1: direct to consumer product and we're in a ton of

881
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:06,440
Speaker 1: smoke shops and CBD stores in the state of Minnesota.

882
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:10,400
Speaker 4: Now again, you know, speaking out in Dallas, and there

883
00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:12,440
Speaker 4: was a lot of kids really understanding about you know,

884
00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:14,960
Speaker 4: at some point it would be federally legal, but obviously

885
00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:17,560
Speaker 4: Texas is very restrictive. From the story I just met, sure,

886
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:19,239
Speaker 4: is this a.

887
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:22,000
Speaker 1: Product that is legally be sold in Yes, it would,

888
00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:24,239
Speaker 1: And so when we're looking for wholesale and distribution for

889
00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:27,720
Speaker 1: this particular product all throughout the United States. We literally

890
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 1: just got everything all rocking and rolling. We launched about

891
00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:31,839
Speaker 1: ten days ago.

892
00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:32,440
Speaker 4: Excellent.

893
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:35,400
Speaker 1: And so this is our direct to consumer play. Texas

894
00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:37,920
Speaker 1: is good, Georgia is good, Wisconsin is good. These are

895
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,840
Speaker 1: places that are non REX states. We would love to

896
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,919
Speaker 1: work with those states, especially places like Texas where there's

897
00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:47,200
Speaker 1: a big, you know, social justice component that's needed.

898
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:49,840
Speaker 4: Master Mentor's Live students. You heard it here first. This

899
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:51,759
Speaker 4: is a product. You guys heard me talk about it.

900
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:54,760
Speaker 4: How there are legitimate brands that you guys could help support,

901
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,400
Speaker 4: promote white label, et cetera. Give them a call. Now,

902
00:40:57,400 --> 00:40:59,279
Speaker 4: where can people get a hold of you or the

903
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:00,880
Speaker 4: brand or keep an eye on it if they want

904
00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:01,320
Speaker 4: to support it?

905
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:03,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, so every major social media platform is the same.

906
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 1: It's for zero t o ns brand. That's forty tons brand.

907
00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:10,040
Speaker 1: And then you can go to forty tons dot co

908
00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,040
Speaker 1: as our main website, and then our the products are

909

Speaker 1: forty tons products dot com.

910
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,000
Speaker 4: Excellent. Now, before we leave, man, I want to make

911
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,560
Speaker 4: sure I leave enough time to talk about this phenomenal

912
00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:22,960
Speaker 4: project that you semi launched. I love the fundamentals, I

913
00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:25,280
Speaker 4: love the story behind it, but in your own words,

914
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:27,400
Speaker 4: tell me, tell me what that is, because I think

915
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,040
Speaker 4: this is something I'd love for the audience to get

916
00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:29,640
Speaker 4: behind as well.

917
00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:33,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, So basically what we did was when the nft

918
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 1: ERA was going really heavy, you know, a couple of

919
00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:39,160
Speaker 1: years back, I came up with a concept and an

920
00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 1: idea that I wanted to, you know, do something different

921
00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:44,520
Speaker 1: than just creating an ape or a tiger or a

922
00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:47,840
Speaker 1: pigeon or a bird. Like everybody was doing right, everyone

923
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:50,040
Speaker 1: was you know, bord Apes was the big one, Blue chimps,

924
00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:55,680
Speaker 1: whoever it was right. And I commissioned an artist named

925
00:41:55,760 --> 00:42:00,120
Speaker 1: Ryan Strauss and we worked an executive produced artwork on

926
00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:03,960
Speaker 1: individual prisoners. So I got the cannabis prisoner's picture. I

927
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:06,839
Speaker 1: picked ten of them at the time, and we hand

928
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:08,600
Speaker 1: drew them so as you can see, like this is

929
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:11,719
Speaker 1: dose now, you know, Raphael Hernandez.

930
00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 4: I met Kevin Allen here. You got their federal rag number,

931
00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:16,839
Speaker 4: you got their LIFs there. This gentleman's there, he's got life.

932
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:19,360
Speaker 1: And Kevin's there for like some bullshit like he's just

933
00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:22,759
Speaker 1: a career. He got career criminals out and like like

934
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:26,120
Speaker 1: you know, an ounce of weed got him life type thing. Unreal,

935
00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:30,000
Speaker 1: you know, Parker Coleman is doing sixty years, Mohammed Tai

936
00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 1: here really good brother doing twenty five years. Edwin Ruby's

937
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:34,759
Speaker 1: look for his book. It's coming out in the next

938
00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:39,160
Speaker 1: month under forty tons Publishing. And so all these guys,

939
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 1: you know, have ungodly sentences. So I made an NFT

940
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:46,200
Speaker 1: project seventeen hundred and ten NFTs right for seven ten

941
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,520
Speaker 1: like oil. And the thought process behind it was at

942
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:51,759
Speaker 1: the time eth was going for point two point three

943
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:54,160
Speaker 1: eighth which is about two to three hundred USD at

944
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:56,279
Speaker 1: the time, And so what I was thinking was, well,

945
00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:58,440
Speaker 1: how can we raise money for these guys, How can

946
00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:00,800
Speaker 1: we get our brand out there? How can we monetize

947
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:03,560
Speaker 1: off this booming NFT crypto thing but then still have

948
00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:06,600
Speaker 1: utility and like actually put it towards something good. So

949
00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:10,200
Speaker 1: the thought was, you know, making individual wallets for each

950
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:13,880
Speaker 1: one of these prisoners, cold wallets, right. I hit them up,

951
00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:15,680
Speaker 1: ask them, who do you want me to give the

952
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:18,320
Speaker 1: wallet two and the secret peak two? Or do you

953
00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:20,440
Speaker 1: want me to put it in a safe deposit box

954
00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:21,880
Speaker 1: and when you come home give it to you one

955
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:25,200
Speaker 1: or the other. And so if you take ten prisoners

956
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:28,000
Speaker 1: divided by seventeen ten. It's approximately one hundred and seventy

957
00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:32,759
Speaker 1: individual NFTs. What's one seventy times three hundred bucks. You're

958
00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:35,680
Speaker 1: like close to thirty racks something like that, right, more? Yes,

959
00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:39,319
Speaker 1: I think even more? Right so, so yeah, because two

960
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:41,839
Speaker 1: hundred would be sixty thousand, So yeah, like right around

961
00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:45,080
Speaker 1: fifty something thousand dollars. That's just in the first round

962
00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:47,719
Speaker 1: of the NFT. That's not even resale. So half goes

963
00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:50,560
Speaker 1: to forty tons foundation. The other half goes to the prisoner.

964
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:53,560
Speaker 1: So that's thirty thousand dollars of what some of the

965
00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:57,440
Speaker 1: value that each prisoner would have. So it was almost

966
00:43:57,480 --> 00:44:00,760
Speaker 1: like a donation investment for the NFT. But in addition

967
00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:04,280
Speaker 1: to that, I would connect you with the individual prisoner,

968
00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 1: so there'd be one hundred and seventy new people that

969
00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:12,359
Speaker 1: knew about your your situation, and then we would they

970
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:14,480
Speaker 1: would write them and we would facilitate that through a

971
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:16,840
Speaker 1: form where we would print out the letters, send it

972
00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:19,120
Speaker 1: on their behalf. And then now you get the physically,

973
00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:22,480
Speaker 1: So if you got the Pedro Moreno NFT, you got

974
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:26,960
Speaker 1: connected with Pedro Moreno, and then we expanded on it,

975
00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:30,320
Speaker 1: and you know when the market ended up, you know,

976
00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:33,440
Speaker 1: going down. We ended up doing postcards. We ended up

977
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:36,360
Speaker 1: reaching out to a company called Hemper. Hemper put up

978
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:39,120
Speaker 1: ten thousand rolling trades just for a small logo on

979
00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:41,400
Speaker 1: the tray because they believed that no one should be

980
00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:43,400
Speaker 1: in prison for a plant. And so we repurposed the

981
00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:45,880
Speaker 1: art onto that and we give that as promo units.

982
00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:48,759
Speaker 1: And so it was just a really cool concept of

983
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:52,480
Speaker 1: being able to raise money, make money, and also have

984
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:56,160
Speaker 1: a massive awareness campaign that people were still locked up

985
00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:58,680
Speaker 1: over the plant because one thing about crypto, crypto and cannabis,

986
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:00,719
Speaker 1: there was a big intersection in there, and because you

987
00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:02,640
Speaker 1: had the Crypto Cannabis Club, you had a bunch of

988
00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:05,040
Speaker 1: other people, and so we wanted to be able to

989
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,279
Speaker 1: kind of bring that crypto cannabis community together. And we

990
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:10,920
Speaker 1: were this close. We did the solidity contract and everything,

991
00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:13,040
Speaker 1: and then the market took a shit and I ended

992
00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:14,000
Speaker 1: up not putting it out.

993
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,560
Speaker 4: Well, I'm a firm believer that everything happens for a reason,

994
00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:18,759
Speaker 4: and I think the timing, for whatever reason, if it

995
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:20,840
Speaker 4: was off, I love the fact that you still have

996
00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:23,520
Speaker 4: that set up. You've moved, You've pivoted a little bit. Yeah,

997
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 4: but I think that that's a project I think once

998
00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:28,080
Speaker 4: everything kind of shakes out with the NFT market, it'll,

999
00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:30,480
Speaker 4: as we saw with every other industry, it'll kind of

1000
00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:32,160
Speaker 4: go up, it'll go down, and it'll kind of come back.

1001
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:34,640
Speaker 4: But I think that there's going to be a variation

1002
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:36,440
Speaker 4: of this that you're going to continue with down the line,

1003
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:39,280
Speaker 4: because it's a it's a really I mean, I've seen thousands,

1004
00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:41,799
Speaker 4: literally thousands of different projects and it's like, all right, dude,

1005
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:44,920
Speaker 4: it's milf coin, and it's this coin. Literally there was

1006
00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:47,840
Speaker 4: one that but nobody ever actually had a utility that

1007
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:50,040
Speaker 4: was tangible that you could say, all right, at least

1008
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:52,080
Speaker 4: this prisoner is going to get some love from the outside.

1009
00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:54,680
Speaker 4: So that's a that's a phenomenal project. And if you guys,

1010
00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:57,000
Speaker 4: these these these trays are pretty dope. If you guys

1011
00:45:57,040 --> 00:46:00,319
Speaker 4: just make a small donation of the foundation, just screens him,

1012
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 4: screenshop me, we'll make sure you guys get one of

1013
00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:03,680
Speaker 4: these anywhere any.

1014
00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:06,399
Speaker 1: Paid the costs of shipping right ten to fifteen bucks,

1015
00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:08,720
Speaker 1: and we'll get you some postcards and some of these trades.

1016
00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:10,799
Speaker 4: That'd be really cool. Man. Well, I appreciate you coming

1017
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:12,520
Speaker 4: on the show. Anything else you want to share, any

1018
00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:15,239
Speaker 4: other timelines or website, anything else we can kind of

1019
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:16,840
Speaker 4: help you promote. Do you have any other brands that

1020
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:18,480
Speaker 4: have supported you, guys you want to shout out?

1021
00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:21,360
Speaker 1: Oh man, Yeah, definitely. So two things. One, we have

1022
00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:23,920
Speaker 1: what's called the Level Up Career Conference. The Level of

1023
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:29,920
Speaker 1: Career Conference is our flagship event program initiative. It doesn't

1024
00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:31,960
Speaker 1: mean anything if you get somebody out of jail from

1025
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:33,600
Speaker 1: a life sentence and then they go right back to

1026
00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:36,719
Speaker 1: prison because they don't get the education, the resources and

1027
00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:39,360
Speaker 1: the tools to better themselves. And at the Level Up

1028
00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:42,279
Speaker 1: Career Conference, that's what we do. We bring in all

1029
00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:44,560
Speaker 1: the different brands we did, bring in all the companies

1030
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:47,560
Speaker 1: that are hiring. We do have an expungement clinic. We

1031
00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:50,120
Speaker 1: have people speaking on stage. We get about a thousand

1032
00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:52,200
Speaker 1: people that come out and it's pretty cool when we

1033
00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:54,239
Speaker 1: do them all over the country. It's a small event.

1034
00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:56,040
Speaker 1: It's a small event in the sense of a conference,

1035
00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:57,000
Speaker 1: but it's a big event.

1036
00:46:57,040 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 4: I mean a thousand and still a pretty good nuffort

1037
00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:00,000
Speaker 4: to hit. And when's the next one?

1038
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:02,600
Speaker 1: So the next one we're working right now because we

1039
00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:04,799
Speaker 1: are trying to find a venue. It's the only place

1040
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:06,480
Speaker 1: in the country that it's so hard to find a

1041
00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 1: venue is New York. But the next one will be

1042
00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:10,839
Speaker 1: New York in the in the late in the mid

1043
00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:13,640
Speaker 1: to late fall. But if we can't secure a venue

1044
00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:15,320
Speaker 1: within the next two weeks, we'll probably do it in

1045
00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:17,000
Speaker 1: the early spring in New York.

1046
00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:19,719
Speaker 4: Now, why New York is that a hotbed for.

1047
00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:23,080
Speaker 1: It's a hotbed for for for cannabis. There's a lot

1048
00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:25,120
Speaker 1: of jobs that are that are coming out there. It

1049
00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:27,720
Speaker 1: covers the tri state area, so you hit New Jersey,

1050
00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:31,279
Speaker 1: New York, Connecticut, all those places in one place. We're

1051
00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:34,640
Speaker 1: there and it's a place that the war on drugs

1052
00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:37,160
Speaker 1: has hit pretty hard, so it's a perfect place to

1053
00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:38,840
Speaker 1: do it. It's just you know, it's two hundred thousand

1054
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:40,719
Speaker 1: dollars for a venue in New York, whereas you know

1055
00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:42,680
Speaker 1: in la you could get a venue for twenty grand

1056
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:44,040
Speaker 1: and it'll fit a thousand people.

1057
00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:45,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, So that's that's.

1058
00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:47,719
Speaker 1: That's that. And then as far as like other cool

1059
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:51,240
Speaker 1: little things you know, we got you know, we partner

1060
00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:52,719
Speaker 1: with a lot of different people on a lot of

1061
00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:56,839
Speaker 1: different collabse you know, Dutchy, you know, Big Shot out

1062
00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:59,560
Speaker 1: to Duchy. They you know, did these cool little rolling

1063
00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:01,719
Speaker 1: papers for us you know where, and and did that

1064
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:03,760
Speaker 1: as like just giveaways so that we can give stuff

1065
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:06,240
Speaker 1: away and promote the brand and says no one should

1066
00:48:06,239 --> 00:48:08,840
Speaker 1: be in prison for cannabis on the on the on

1067
00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:11,480
Speaker 1: the uh right here. Yeah. But one of the big

1068
00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:13,440
Speaker 1: ones that I want to talk about today is Custom

1069
00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 1: Cones USA and day Savers. We have a partnership with

1070
00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:19,040
Speaker 1: them called Cones for a Cause where ten percent of

1071
00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:21,320
Speaker 1: the proceeds of those cones go to the forty Tons Foundation.

1072
00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:23,919
Speaker 1: And so you know the team over at Custom Cones

1073
00:48:23,960 --> 00:48:26,680
Speaker 1: and day Savers, they're huge, man, they're like a you know,

1074
00:48:26,719 --> 00:48:28,920
Speaker 1: they're like a blazy Susan or a raw right, like

1075
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:31,200
Speaker 1: they're big, you know what I mean. And and so

1076
00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:33,040
Speaker 1: they have this whole Cones for a Cause thing that

1077
00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:36,520
Speaker 1: they do and that we are there like Cannabis Criminal
