00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:08,519
Speaker 4: get right to it.

64
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 3: Kick. How did you start this company?

65
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 6: So this company was started before I even joined. Uh

66
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 6: I joined a few years back here, but the company

67
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 6: was started through a family jumping over from traditional agriculture

68
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 6: and starting as a father and son entity putting this

69
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,920
Speaker 6: group together in cannabis.

70
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 5: So Austin was actually the first employee with the group.

71
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 6: So he's been here since day one, from the start

72
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 6: and the transition through new ownership, takeover, and really the

73
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 6: launch of California Love, from the full.

74
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 5: Start of it all. So he's seen the full breath.

75
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 6: This thing has been growing great and really our business

76
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 6: has morphed along with this industry.

77
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 5: So we started out on a few different projects.

78
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 6: Long story short, wholesale was the majority of where our

79
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 6: business was coming from. And then as the dynamics in

80
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 6: the industry changed, our brand really found some traction.

81
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 5: And we started putting more weight behind it.

82
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 6: So, as anybody that's been in CA is long enough,

83
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 6: you know that you got to learn to roll with

84
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 6: the punches, and our punches landed us with a great

85
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 6: effort beyond California Love, and we found an honest lane

86
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 6: for us to live in providing great quality cannabis for

87
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 6: folks at a price that makes sense for them to

88
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 6: actually enjoy.

89
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:16,160
Speaker 5: This plan for what it is.

90
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 3: You know.

91
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 2: I love that you say, you know, an honest living,

92
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 2: you know, because it's important right that people understand the

93
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 2: standard of what's happening in cannabis. You know, a lot

94
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:29,239
Speaker 2: of us, you know, come from the illicit market or whatever,

95
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 2: and it's.

96
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 3: Just kind of was part of our DNA, if you will.

97
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 2: But then you know, as it starts to evolve, you know,

98
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 2: you had opportunity to do it the right way. And

99
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 2: it sounds like that's exactly where you guys start are

100
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,359
Speaker 2: at right now. So let's let's take it back for

101
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 2: a second. And where are you guys from? Where?

102
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,120

00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 9: I just had my two year anniversary in LA and

131
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:05,719
Speaker 9: I've been with California Love a year and a half.

132
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 9: I prior to working for California Love worked for a

133
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:13,039
Speaker 9: cannabis corporate tech company that did like pos software.

134
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 8: And prior to that, I trapped in New York.

135
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 9: City for about a year and a half and that

136
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 9: kind of led into reading a book called The Cannabis Manifesto,

137
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,600
Speaker 9: which made me realize that cannabis was where I could

138
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 9: have the greatest impact on the world.

139
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 3: Wow, that's amazing. And what high school did you go to.

140
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 9: I went to a prep school called Wolverham and Monson Academy,

141
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:35,720
Speaker 9: which is in a town called Wolverham, Mass and it's

142
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 9: one of the longest or oldest private schools in the country.

143
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 9: It started in eighteen oh six.

144
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 3: Wow, that's awesome. Did he play sports? Excuse me, fucking

145
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 3: fancy pants.

146
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 9: I played water polo, and then I also played baseball, Okay, nice?

147
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 8: Nice one position baseball? I was center field water polo.

148
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 3: As a bully. Okay, nice? All right. So the California

149
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,279
Speaker 3: brand was born when no joke? When was it born?

150
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 2: Twenty ninth nineteen? And then and then so you guys

151
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 2: ended up getting licensed. What kind of licenses did you

152
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:05,719
Speaker 2: guys carry currently?

153
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 7: We carried distribution of manufacturing type N and the company

154
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 7: for when California Love came around. Yeah, we've held both

155
00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 7: of those licenses since prior to California Love.

156
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 3: Nice.

157
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 2: Okay, so you have the licenses and then and then

158
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 2: you built the California Love brand because it was more

159
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 2: of a distribution.

160
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 7: Right right, Yeah, so you know, doing the good old

161
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 7: bulk sales game, and we found that having you know,

162
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 7: multiple outlets to move through inventory was a good way

163
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 7: to go. So it was a little bit more of

164
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,880
Speaker 7: a back burner thing. We initially started with just some

165
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 7: ounce and half ounce bags and then started doing an

166
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 7: eighth jar. And as the industry you know, has progressed

167
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 7: the way that it has, with the market doing what

168
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 7: it does, we basically put all of our chips in

169
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 7: the retail basket. We don't really do any wholesale now.

170
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 7: If anything, if anything that comes into our warehouse is

171
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 7: not going into California Love, then it'll go into another

172
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 7: brand for somebody we copacked for. But basically everything that

173
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 7: leaves our warehouse is going on to a retail shelf.

174
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 2: You know, I think you guys have brilliant marketing and

175
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 2: branding with that, you know, because honestly, I mean, I mean,

176
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:14,679
Speaker 2: when it opens up federally, right even in California, people

177
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 2: are always gonna support Cali. Right, We're like, oh, we're

178
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 2: in California, so we're gonna we're gonna wrap it. But

179
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 2: you know, I think once it goes national and it

180
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 2: goes into other, you know states, you guys are gonna

181
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 2: kill it because the name California Love. People are gonna

182
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 2: be like, let me try that Cali lead, you know.

183
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 2: And so that's just I think one of those brilliant

184
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,439
Speaker 2: plays that you guys have in your back pocket, that's

185
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 2: gonna hit for you.

186
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 3: I'm excited for you, guys.

187
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 2: Do you guys feel that like, what kind of quality

188
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:42,160
Speaker 2: level are we putting in this?

189
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 3: Is? This? Is it indoor? Outdoor?

190
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:44,679
Speaker 5: Is it?

191
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 6: Uh?

192
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 3: You know what do we have in there?

193
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 7: Yeah? So one thing right off the bat there is

194
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 7: we don't deal with any indoor at all. And the

195
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 7: reason for that is part of the ethos of California

196
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 7: Love is we want to pay homage to the beautiful,

197
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 7: beautiful bounty that the state gives us. So a lot

198
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 7: of people when you say the word sung grown, they

199
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:04,680
Speaker 7: may think of just like some standard outdoor And personally,

200
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:08,679
Speaker 7: I've been on this education crusade to properly give the

201
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 7: verbiage to the different levels of cultivation that exist between

202
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,560
Speaker 7: indoor and full term outdoor. Sure, because a lot of

203
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 7: people think that the only things that exist in between

204
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 7: are a lot of people say greenhouse or they say

205
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,080
Speaker 7: light dep right, and then that personally frustrates me when

206
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 7: people say light deb because everything other than full term

207
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:29,559
Speaker 7: outdoor is utilizing light deprivation techniques. Sure, so the majority,

208
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:31,960
Speaker 7: actually all of our flower comes from on our higher level.

209
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 7: It's usually light assisted greenhouse.

210
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:34,200
Speaker 3: Yep.

211
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 7: So a greenhouse where once again, yes they are using

212
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 7: light deprivation techniques to manipulate the life cycle of the

213
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 7: plant itself, but they have light assist in there so

214
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,559
Speaker 7: that they're able to produce at a quality that's just

215
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,080
Speaker 7: about hitting indoor, but with the free power given to

216
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 7: them by the sun, the cost is so much lower.

217
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 2: Sure, and I think I think personally, like you know,

218
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 2: and this is like just what I prefer. I don't

219
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 2: think that it's you know, I think it's everybody has

220
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 2: their own like flavor in the world. But I personally

221
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 2: come from just you know, the light assist or the

222
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:10,559
Speaker 2: outdoor world myself. So for me, the turpenes are better.

223
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 2: You could tell that it's been grown in the sun,

224
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 2: you know, And it's just I think it's a better

225
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 2: high for me, you know, I you know, that's for me.

226
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:23,560
Speaker 2: I mean, if you're thinking like like THC levels or

227
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,200
Speaker 2: tricones or you know, whatever it is. I just, for

228
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 2: whatever reason I grew up on. I grew up on,

229
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 2: you know, a bag of weed that was grown in

230
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 2: probably Mexico or something. And then I started Okay. Then

231
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 2: I started meeting in the northern Cali boys, I'm like okay.

232
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 2: Then there was outdoor and I was just like, shit,

233
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 2: this is really good. And some of the cannabis today,

234
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 2: I don't, you know. I look at it and I

235
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 2: smoke and I'm like, damn, I get high, but it's

236
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 2: not the high that I like, you know, it's a

237
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 2: different high.

238
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 7: Well, dude, with modern technology and cultivation practices, you can

239
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 7: utilize the sun but then still control all of the

240
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:58,320
Speaker 7: factors such as temperature, humidity, and so a light assisted

241
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 7: greenhouse is where we're getting stuff that goes into our

242
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 7: gold line. That's what we consider our top shelf, sure,

243
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 7: and then the stuff that goes into our essentials line,

244
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 7: which we do in the ounce and half ounces here,

245
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 7: that's more of your hoop house cultivation, sure, which also

246
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,560
Speaker 7: uses light deprivations. So yeah, well, a lot of time

247
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 7: when people say lightsap and they're just thinking, they may

248
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:17,680
Speaker 7: just be thinking of those hoop houses I'm like, well,

249
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 7: you know, they actually are using light deprivation and every

250
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 7: type of size full term outdoor. So I usually like

251
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 7: to refer to You've got greenhouse light assist greenhouse, then

252
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 7: you've got hoop cultivation, which you can also have light assists,

253
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 7: but then all of those are using light deprivation technique.

254
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 2: Right, So you guys currently don't actually have your own forms,

255

Speaker 4: We're sitting here with the guys from California, Love and Austin.

269
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 4: Not only were you the first employee that was on

270
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,680
Speaker 4: Craigslist that you found out about this. I'm really curious

271
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 4: before we get into you guys outsourcing this cannabis, what

272
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 4: else were you doing on craizelist back in those days,

273
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 4: Because I've been on Craigslist before and I was looking

274
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:38,959
Speaker 4: for jobs.

275
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,959
Speaker 3: I was looking, you know, I'm just curious. Was it

276
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 3: jobs only and what other type of jobs were they.

277
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 7: I will fight this to the death. I think Craigslist

278
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,199
Speaker 7: is still one of the most pure forms of finding

279
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,199
Speaker 7: not only employment but also staffing, and I will fight

280
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 7: this to the death. You can you can talk about

281
00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 7: your indeeds and whatever all day long, but the best job,

282
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 7: in my personal opinion, the most legit and the most

283
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 7: you meet the best people and find the best opportunities. Personally,

284
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 7: I think those are coming from Craigslist.

285
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:16,319
Speaker 3: I got working jobs on cras in the free story the.

286
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 4: Outsourcing question that Blue asked and led to, because you

287
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 4: guys are talking about your outdoor grow where are you

288
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 4: guys getting it from?

289
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 3: Yeah?

290
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,760
Speaker 7: So, uh, going back to where our facility is located

291
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 7: there in Grover Beach in the Central Coast region. We

292
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:34,559
Speaker 7: try to procure the majority of our cannabis from within

293
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 7: our regions. So basically everything in every one of our products. Honestly,

294
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 7: nothing on the menu off the top of my head

295
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 7: right now that I can think of that doesn't come

296
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 7: from the Central Coast region, being I never usually have

297
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,360
Speaker 7: to go further south than Carpenteria, I never usually have

298
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 7: to go further north than Salinas. And you find in

299
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 7: those Salinas and Carpenteria regions that's where they've got a

300
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 7: lot more of those greenhouses. And then everywhere in between

301
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 7: us where you're gonna find a lot more of those

302
00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 7: hoop operations, you know, a little bit more expansive land

303
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 7: of a lie. And that's where we get the majority

304
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 7: of the material for the Essentials line, and then that

305
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,599
Speaker 7: greenhouse stuff a little bit more for the Gold line.

306
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,840
Speaker 2: And and and so do you actually who physically goes

307
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 2: out there and touches them you oh yeah, oh yeah.

308
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 3: So you're making sure quality controls there.

309
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,720
Speaker 7: Dude, hundred percent. And it's not only so. The first

310
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 7: thing is when I walk up, Because as much as

311
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 7: we would all love that the industry is not driven

312
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 7: by potency, that's still what consumers are paying the most

313
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 7: attention to. Don't worry, I'm also on a we are

314
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 7: also on an education tie rate against that because we

315
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 7: include the terpene profile directly from the certificate of compliance

316
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 7: on all of our products. But that's a separate question.

317
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 7: The question that we are answering now was, oh, yeah,

318
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 7: so when I actually go to the farm, first thing

319
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 7: is I say, please, only put stuff in front of

320
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 7: me that's going to test at least twenty five, twenty six,

321
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 7: twenty seven, twenty eight percent THHC. Of course they put

322
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 7: everything in front of me, and so I say, okay,

323
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 7: So now we move on to the nose and eyeball test.

324
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 7: You know, I want to make sure that it's fallen

325
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 7: into one of our different product tiers here on the

326
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 7: basis of structure, the nose, the look, all the above.

327
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 7: And then I say, okay, guys, I'm going to need

328
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 7: to take a ten gram sample, and then we have

329
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 7: a two factor potency authentication where basically we're bringing that

330
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 7: sample back to our warehouse, and then we have an

331
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 7: in house machine, the Orange Potonics. I saw that you

332
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 7: guys have Gill on the show, but yeah, so the

333
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 7: Orange Photonics does a great job of basically giving us

334
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:18,800
Speaker 7: a threshold that we want to be passing. So if

335
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 7: I'm going to take all the samples. If I go

336
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 7: out on a procurement day, I come back with twenty

337
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 7: different samples, and I send all those into the lab.

338
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:28,240
Speaker 7: I'm running up a major bill when realistically only let's

339
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 7: say four to five of them are going to end

340
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 7: up hitting our potency threshold. So we use the orange photonics,

341
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:35,800
Speaker 7: and then whatever passes the threshold on the photonics, then

342
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 7: we also send into the lab, which we use Belkoso.

343
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 7: So you had them on the show too shut out,

344
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 7: So then we also send into the lab. And then

345
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 7: once we get our lab results back, that's when we're

346
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 7: actually confirming a purchase and going back to the farm

347
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 7: to pick it up.

348
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 3: Oh fantastic.

349
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 2: So you actually test it at home first, then you

350
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 2: send it out and then once it you know, passes

351
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 2: twice essentially, then you guys make the purchase.

352
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 3: So they do they do they?

353
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 2: When they do that, do they put it in custody

354
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 2: somewhere for you and say, okay essential or is it

355
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 2: just still up for grabs if someone comes and buys

356
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 2: it the next day or something.

357
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 7: Yeah, no, somebody can absolutely come and buy. This is

358
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 7: the first come, first serve industry, and a lot of

359
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 7: the time I have or we've built relationships to the

360
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,120
Speaker 7: point that people will just hold stuff for us because

361
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 7: we make people's lives easy. You know, a lot of

362
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 7: these a lot of the people out there that strictly

363
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 7: deal in wholesale, they don't make life is easy for

364
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,320
Speaker 7: a multitude of reasons. You know, we make life easy.

365
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 7: We do what we're saying, We do what we say

366
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 7: we're going to do. And I tell the farm straight

367
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 7: up at the front end, I'm like, hey, I can

368
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 7: only buy stuff that's going to hit our potency threshold

369
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 7: because if I bring it into my warehouse, like I've

370
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 7: already covered here, we don't sell wholesale. So if anything

371
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:41,000
Speaker 7: tests low potency, I got nothing to do with it.

372
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 2: Now, the ten grams that they give you for testing,

373
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 2: do they take that out of the the rest of

374
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 2: it later.

375
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 7: No, they're pretty chill about that. Yeah, yeah, they're usually they're.

376
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 3: Just a quick question. You know, it's like that is

377
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 3: that that that's the dome show? Like, oh, I smoke out.

378
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 7: They're complimentary on that one. I mean, you know, and

379
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:01,479
Speaker 7: you but enough cannabis from them, that's right, right, right exactly.

380
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 7: And so if something gets sold while I'm doing my testing.

381
00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 7: That's the way I would rather that be the case.

382
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 7: Then I don't do my full sop and then I

383
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:11,439
Speaker 7: bring something in that doesn't end up working front of

384
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 7: our products, and then I'm stuck with it.

385
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 8: Sure you know?

386
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 3: Sure have you ever had that problem? Many items? Go ahead?

387
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:17,639
Speaker 3: Go ahead, sony items? Are we looking at you guys?

388
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 3: Product wise? Skws?

389
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 4: I see about three it nine different SKUs on the

390
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 4: site right now. What are you guys looking at?

391
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:29,359
Speaker 3: Carrying? And what's the number one seller?

392
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 7: So total number of items on our menu is right

393
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 7: around seventy right now. Yeah, And that is that's my

394
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,159
Speaker 7: main job, is making sure that whenever one single item

395
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,440
Speaker 7: on the menu is getting low, that there's something ready

396
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 7: to take its place. And as far as main seller goes,

397
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 7: I mean it depends if you're talking individual units or volume.

398
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 7: Because what moves the most total volume of flower that

399
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 7: would be our Essentials line because it's the ounces and

400
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 7: half ounces. We move way more units of the Gold line,

401
00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 7: but that one is primarily sold in eighth. But then

402
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 7: if you're talking about our pre real singles, we're busting

403
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 7: through tens of thousands of those a month. So I

404
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,600
Speaker 7: mean across the board, they each hold their own special place.

405
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, geographicly, it is definitely different out there. We definitely

406
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 6: see some regions want the bags more than others. Pre

407
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,440
Speaker 6: rules are pretty popular everywhere. Our brand kind of comes

408
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:19,439
Speaker 6: with some consumer education that for the price point, everybody

409
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:21,920
Speaker 6: seeing it at everybody expects a lower quality.

410
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:23,879
Speaker 5: They pop on these jars, pop on these bags.

411
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,679
Speaker 6: They're all pleasantly surprised on the quality that they're getting,

412
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 6: and that's what brings them back.

413
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 2: You know, are you guys white labeling for other people

414
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 2: as well, or do you just do pretty much your

415
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 2: own lines.

416
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,399
Speaker 7: We do some co packing, but it's primarily for local

417
00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 7: retailers that want to have an in store brand.

418
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:40,399
Speaker 3: Oh that's smart, Yeah, that's smart.

419
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 2: And then so with the industry, you know, you guys,

420
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 2: we've seen a lot of the roller coasters. I'm sure

421
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 2: you guys have felt it, and we kind of briefly

422
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 2: talked about it earlier. But you know, what have you

423
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 2: guys noticed is the I mean, the prices are starting

424
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 2: to come back up because I know last year, right

425
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,440
Speaker 2: after i mean COVID, we had this huge boom right

426
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 2: where it was just flooding out the doors and we

427
00:18:59,560 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 2: all knew.

428
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:00,919
Speaker 3: Is it kind of a balloon?

429
00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 2: I guess if you're in the industry, But everybody was

430
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 2: kind of building off of that and then stabilizing back down.

431
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:09,359
Speaker 3: There's been just you know, terror stories of people falling apart.

432
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,159
Speaker 2: Right now, give us some insight from from the inside,

433
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,440
Speaker 2: you know, of what you guys have dealt with and

434
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:16,680
Speaker 2: how you've you know, been able to still come out

435
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,120
Speaker 2: with such you know, seventy different product lines and being

436
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 2: able to still operate in a good, healthy manner.

437
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,119
Speaker 7: Oh, I would love to. So the toughest part to

438
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 7: get through in terms of twenty twenty three was that

439
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,479
Speaker 7: late winter because we had the wettest year on like like,

440
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 7: we had a historically wet Yeah, we had a historically

441
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 7: way year.

442
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 3: It was the most historic for a while exactly.

443
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 7: Brain And so what usually keeps prices in check during

444
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 7: that late winter period is hoop cultivators and out outdoor cultivators.

445
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 7: They'll do a winter run. Usually they'll do a winter run.

446
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,679
Speaker 7: It won't be high yield, it won't be super high quality,

447
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 7: but there will be product available. This year, it was

448
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:52,679
Speaker 7: so wet that nobody could grow hoops or outdoor so

449
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 7: that was not there to help keep prices down. And

450
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 7: then also you have your greenhouse cultivators that not only

451
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,440
Speaker 7: was it so wet, but it was so cloudy, right,

452
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 7: so their yields, even though they can fully produce, whether

453
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 7: AE or moisture aside, they were getting low, low yields.

454
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 7: So getting into that late winter spring, that was the

455
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,199
Speaker 7: toughest time of this year when prices started to go

456
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,920
Speaker 7: back up after the full fall through of late twenty

457
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 7: twenty two. Sure, and then they've it's been somewhat consistently easing.

458
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:24,239
Speaker 7: As you know, people plants in late spring and then

459
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,919
Speaker 7: the first summer harvests have been coming through over the

460
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 7: course of the past month or so, but we had

461
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,720
Speaker 7: the gloomiest June that we've seen in a while, right,

462
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,679
Speaker 7: So not only are people experiencing lower yields from what

463
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 7: they normally would be producing per plant, but then there's

464
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 7: also been some moisture issues, so there have been some

465
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,160
Speaker 7: mold problems. People are having a pull early in certain cases,

466
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 7: which has made it so what normally is the yields

467
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 7: of early fall are not as high as people would

468
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:53,119
Speaker 7: normally project them to be. So prices have definitely leveled

469
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 7: out and come down some from that that early summer,

470
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 7: late spring, but they have not come down as much

471
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,160
Speaker 7: as you would normally see see them in this time

472
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,400
Speaker 7: of year, and it's gonna be really interesting to see

473
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,680
Speaker 7: when we get into this winter, because winter always goes up.

474
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:07,359
Speaker 7: We don't know if we're going to have another wet one.

475
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 7: You know, the media, you're all, I'll just say all

476
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,160
Speaker 7: sorts of different things. We could have another wet one.

477
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 7: And the yields of what are usually the fall yields

478
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 7: are from what I'm seeing, a little bit lower than

479
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,399
Speaker 7: they normally have been. So we usually try to stalk

480
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 7: up man. That's usually our approach.

481
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 3: When you can purchase it, by it and then hold

482
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:23,439
Speaker 3: on to it.

483
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,119
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, And that's the beauty of modern cannabis. The

484
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 7: storage techniques. I mean, I saw you guys have the

485
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,479
Speaker 7: turplock people on too, grove bag turtlock. I mean, I'm

486
00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 7: just shouting out everybody that we use. But it's a

487
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,639
Speaker 7: real deal, right dude, hindre percent. It makes a massive difference,

488
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 7: and it's all about temp. If it's stored with temperature

489
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,200
Speaker 7: and humidity control in those grove bags, I mean, you

490
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,920
Speaker 7: can pop stuff open six seven months later and it'll

491
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 7: look as beautiful as when you just sealed it up.

492
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 1: Really.

493
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, it's good to hear that from someone

494
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 2: like you guys that are actually using the bags and

495
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,199
Speaker 2: being involved, because you know, we tend to I believe it.

496
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 2: I looked at it and I started to kind of

497
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:57,680
Speaker 2: like diving into some of the technology behind it, and

498
00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 2: I'm like, Okay, it makes sense for me because I've

499
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 2: old enough bags and I watched them go bad, you know,

500
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,679
Speaker 2: and you see they'd start to discolor they you know,

501
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 2: the moisture gets all screwed up.

502
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,640
Speaker 3: You're even if you're you know whatever.

503
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 2: Old school techniques from tortillas to whatever you used, you know,

504
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:16,199
Speaker 2: to try and bring them back. But it's nice to

505
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,399
Speaker 2: know that that you guys are you know, validating and

506
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 2: co signing something like that.

507
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,200
Speaker 3: So what do we got here on the table? Guys? Sure?

508
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 7: Yeah, So going back basically just to what the different

509
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:26,520
Speaker 7: products are the essentials line, these ones we do an

510
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:29,920
Speaker 7: ounce and half ounces, and it's hard to say so

511
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:33,119
Speaker 7: we have we can only dictate our wholesale price. I

512
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 7: cannot dictate what a retailer marks up our product too.

513
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 7: So so in terms of the prices that I'll throw

514
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,439
Speaker 7: out there, it's going to kind of just be ranges. Sure,

515
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 7: you know, so the Essentials line what we wanted to

516
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:46,680
Speaker 7: do with this. A lot of the time, when people

517
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 7: think about they're going to get an ounce or a

518
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 7: half ounce, I think to themselves, I'm not going to

519
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,359
Speaker 7: get the best quality, but I'm gonna really get a

520
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:52,920
Speaker 7: volume bang for my book.

521
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 3: Yeah.

522
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,440
Speaker 7: We set out with these to be like, hey, you'll

523
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 7: get a volume bang for your book, but we're also

524
00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 7: going to deliver you better quality than what you expected.

525
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,399
Speaker 7: And going back to what kicked I mentioned earlier, that's

526
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,399
Speaker 7: sort of the motivation behind every single one of our products.

527
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,119
Speaker 7: Have it be better quality than what you expected to

528
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 7: receive for the price that you paid.

529
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:07,680
Speaker 3: Sure, that's a smart move.

530
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 7: Yeah, going back to the Essentials line here, that one

531
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:11,760
Speaker 7: comes from the Hoop Houses. Then we have the Gold line,

532
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,719
Speaker 7: what we consider our top shelf. That is something that

533
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,920
Speaker 7: usually should retail in the thirty to thirty five range.

534
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:18,880
Speaker 3: Can I see one? Yeah?

535
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 7: Absolutely?

536
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:21,880
Speaker 3: Can I open it? Price? Can I open it? Yeah?

537
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:23,920
Speaker 3: It's an eighth for Yeah.

538
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 7: I have it all stealed up there, but you can

539
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 7: totally crack that open one.

540
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,399
Speaker 3: Of my opening retails. It's just cool. We don't have

541
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 3: a name.

542
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 8: Forty dollars just plugging that.

543
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:31,960
Speaker 3: What is it?

544
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 8: It retails out the door.

545
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 9: That's taxes included at all Catalyst stores for thirty dollars.

546
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 2: Wow, that's a shout out to Catalysts' that's big.

547
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:41,560
Speaker 3: Can I open this? Yeah? Absolutely?

548
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:41,880
Speaker 7: Yeah?

549
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 3: Oh wow.

550
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:48,199
Speaker 4: I'll checked my website because I'm only seeing delivery in

551
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,200
Speaker 4: South Orange County and I don't know if it's because

552
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,400
Speaker 4: of where I'm at right now, but you boys from

553
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,400
Speaker 4: South o Ste really got these delivery services on lockout

554
00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:59,120
Speaker 4: here because everywhere around.

555
00:23:58,800 --> 00:23:59,920
Speaker 3: Me, I can get California.

556
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 4: I love from, you know, if you're in the south

557
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:06,400
Speaker 4: South Oc area, from Rancho Santa Margarito all the way

558
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:08,760
Speaker 4: down to San Clementi, which is kind of awesome.

559
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,359
Speaker 3: But how many different retail stores are you guys in.

560
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 7: So in terms of the total number of retailers that

561
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 7: we're in at any given time, I mean, we have

562
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 7: fluctuated between the like seventy eighty to one to twenty

563
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 7: range over the course of the past few years. But

564
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 7: given the difficulty with ar that so many vendors have

565
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,439
Speaker 7: been experiencing over the course of the past year, so

566
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 7: we kind of shifted our approach from instead of just

567
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:34,000
Speaker 7: gunning for more doors, more doors, more doors, because we

568
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 7: learned that that just leads to more ar headaches, more

569
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 7: drivers sent to not have a payment collected when it

570
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:41,959
Speaker 7: was supposed to be all sorts of things like that.

571
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 7: So we kind of shifted from instead of more doors,

572
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,880
Speaker 7: how do we how do we focus on our retail

573
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 7: partners who are good, good partners to us and be

574
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 7: better partners to them. And there's a range of different

575
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,119
Speaker 7: ways we've done that. But then also outside of just

576
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 7: being better partners, we've focus on expanding our product offering

577
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 7: because it is a whole hell of a lot easier

578
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:04,160
Speaker 7: to place an additional product in an existing account than

579
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:05,680
Speaker 7: it is to go try and open up a new door.

580
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 3: Sure, so so you just add more skews.

581
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:11,359
Speaker 7: Added more SKUs, launched different product types, and honestly just

582
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 7: listened listen to what people want. So, for example, we've

583
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 7: been doing our pre roll singles and our cruiser packs

584
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 7: here for years, but then only within the course of

585
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 7: the past two months, one of the one of our

586
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 7: one of our really close retail partners was like, hey,

587
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 7: people love your pre roll material. They would love to

588
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 7: be able to just roll it themselves and then then

589
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:30,720
Speaker 7: came along the California Love sessions, so we do these.

590
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:31,360
Speaker 7: It's just a.

591
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,440
Speaker 3: Shay, Yeah, it's shake. Oh that's beautiful jar shake.

592
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:37,640
Speaker 7: And going back to another way we try to differentiate

593
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:39,880
Speaker 7: ourselves a little bit, is we try to use jars

594
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,119
Speaker 7: for as many things as possible. There is, yes, there

595
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,359
Speaker 7: is that little era of maybe it being it can

596
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:45,840
Speaker 7: be a little bit nicer, but honestly, one of the

597
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 7: main things that we go for with this one's going

598
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 7: to going back to California Love. Wanting to be is

599
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,680
Speaker 7: wanting to be as entire as environmentally friendly as we can.

600
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 7: We try to limit our plastic usage. Yeah, we try

601
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 7: to limit our plastic usage.

602
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:57,520
Speaker 2: This is a keeper though, because now now they're going

603
00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 2: to hold on to it and that it becomes a

604
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 2: branding point for you guys.

605
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 3: I mean, and and honestly, you know a lot.

606
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:07,360
Speaker 2: Of people that that smoke cannabis, they tend to sometimes

607
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 2: get at other places. Right, it's just that that much

608
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 2: on the block, so you know, in which we don't encourage.

609
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, seriously, go out to your local

610
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 2: store this license and capture it from somebody that buy

611
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:21,080
Speaker 2: legal and license cannabis. Yeah, by by a league on license.

612
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:23,399
Speaker 2: But but it's still nice to have a jar like this.

613
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 2: I mean I would keep it at the house. And

614
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:26,880
Speaker 2: you know I like the logos too.

615
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:32,400
Speaker 3: It's very California Dove. Huh. It really is. To pick

616
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,320

00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:55,119
Speaker 6: the cannabis company and having the steady stream of flavors

642
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:56,200

Speaker 3: Here.

653
00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:17,399
Speaker 6: That's all phenomenal. There's just awesome flavors in every level.

654
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 6: The convenience of having the Cruiser packs, of having fourteen

655
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 6: one grammars in a jar that you can keep on

656

658
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 6: there and ready for it.

659
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 5: So honestly, anything and everything.

660
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 6: Just a fan of Weed, I still get geeked out

661
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:35,639
Speaker 6: on any new flavor coming out, So it's fun to

662
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,000
Speaker 6: see those scenes coming through and that's part of the

663
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 6: passion side of this all man, we all scream about it,

664
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 6: but just taking them back to being weedheads, we all

665
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,120
Speaker 6: enjoy seeing what everyone else is producing out there and

666
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 6: having the opportunity to highlight them through our brand because

667
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 6: everybody's fighting their ass off to sustaining this industry and

668
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 6: playing those cultivators on that short list there of trying

669
00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 6: to make it happen. So we work with Mama Pop

670
00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,200
Speaker 6: shops out there that are pumping out great flavors, some

671
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 6: of the bigger dogs out there too. So long winded

672
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 6: answer on it's fun to play the flavor game and

673
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 6: see what's coming new.

674
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,400
Speaker 3: On the exactly.

675
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 9: What about you, Jacob so I would I'm a big

676
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 9: papaya guy. I love papiya turps. I feel like I

677
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 9: rarely ever find papaya in flower I dabble lot. I'm

678
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,720
Speaker 9: always tasting different papiya. So when we got the sour

679
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 9: papaya on our menu, it sold out. Everyone really liked it,

680
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:27,760
Speaker 9: and then we're a small team and we respond really

681
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 9: well to feedback, and so I was kind of able

682
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,240
Speaker 9: to give feedback that hey, like Catalysts is really liking

683
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 9: the sour of paya, other shops have liked it to Austin,

684
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 9: and he was able to resource that, and now sober

685
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 9: papaya is back on our menu from the exact same farm.

686
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 8: And so I would say the sober papaya is my favorite.

687
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,560
Speaker 9: That's available on our gold line if you want to

688
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 9: get on our essentials. I also really like the champagne

689
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 9: cush It smells amazing. I'm usually not a big cush guy,

690
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,200
Speaker 9: but this is just a nice active high that I

691
00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:56,760
Speaker 9: really enjoy.

692
00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 3: Nice dude, and Austin. Austin, He's like, I like them

693
00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:02,520
Speaker 3: all very well.

694
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:05,280
Speaker 7: Okay, So I mean, honestly, the convenience of pre rolls.

695
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 7: I just hate cleaning any any smoking device. It's just

696
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 7: it's such a chore. So I love the convenience of

697
00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,320
Speaker 7: the pre rolls. And our pre rolls are phenomenal quality.

698
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 7: And we have the diamond infuse ones, which I've tried

699
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 7: a lot of different infuse to this and that, and

700
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:23,560
Speaker 7: the THHCA diamonds genuinely have like a different effect to

701
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:25,840
Speaker 7: them that I really enjoy dipping into. But if we're

702
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 7: just talking kind of like individual strains right now, we

703
00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 7: have this lemonadi on the menu that I really love.

704
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 7: And what I really love about the lemonadi is it

705
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 7: has both a blend of like citrus terps in that

706
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 7: you get a little bit of jack and a little

707
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:39,960
Speaker 7: bit of orange and it comes from it reminds me

708
00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 7: of of like Tangi, which was one of my favorite

709
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 7: strains that nobody grows anymore. Nobody grows tangy anymore because

710
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:47,720
Speaker 7: it's not a super potent one. Yeah, it's not a

711
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 7: superpotent one. But they brought the genetics of the terpuine

712
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 7: profile of tangy and then bred it with a couple

713
00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 7: of different things that keep the potency nice and high.

714
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:58,080
Speaker 7: And that's that is one of the beauty of nowadays.

715
00:30:58,120 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 7: You know, everything's a hybrid, everything's crossed with this and that,

716
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,800
Speaker 7: at which you know, you have the downside of that

717
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:04,680
Speaker 7: being that you you we may never see some of

718
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:06,719
Speaker 7: the classics again, but then we get some of the

719
00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 7: beauties of modern crosses, such as such as something like

720
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 7: the Lemonadi or the GMO cross with Gushman's that are

721
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 7: just such a beautifully complex terrpene profile that I just

722
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:15,719
Speaker 7: love smelling.

723
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 3: Let me ask you, is there is there what's the

724
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 3: number one seller? Like just what hands down sells the best?

725
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:24,640
Speaker 3: Is there one or is it kind of sporadic still? Dude?

726
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:28,920
Speaker 7: It's it's totally regional. It's totally regional and just pure

727
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:32,680
Speaker 7: outright volume, like the pre roll singles. As soon as somebody,

728
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 7: because they'll they'll start a store will start off like okay, yeah,

729
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,080
Speaker 7: well we'll take a couple hundred, we'll try it out,

730
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:39,560
Speaker 7: and then quickly we'll be their number one pre roll

731
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 7: single and they'll be picking up thousands. And we've just

732
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:44,160
Speaker 7: got like, not even high volume stores that are picking

733
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 7: up thousands of them every week or every other week

734
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:47,800
Speaker 7: because it's just the best thing to have next to

735
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:48,320
Speaker 7: the register.

736
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:50,400
Speaker 3: Everybody just grabs them and goes too quick.

737
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,600
Speaker 7: And it's great for delivery services who just need a

738
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 7: little four or five dollars something on the menu to

739
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 7: hit a minimum.

740
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and that's awesome.

741
00:31:57,920 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 9: It gets the reson ring that you want when you're smoking.

742
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 9: I mean, it's not like it's not white ash usually,

743
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 9: but it's a good salt and pepper, smooth smoke throughout.

744
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:08,200
Speaker 9: And you're really I feel like for the price point,

745
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 9: you can't really find a better pre roll on the market.

746
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:12,320
Speaker 2: What does a pre roll run for? And then and

747
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:14,360
Speaker 2: then you have the packs that come with how many

748
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:14,640
Speaker 2: in it?

749
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:15,360
Speaker 7: Fourteen?

750
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 3: Fourteen and a pack which a half pounds. Yeah.

751
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 7: So once again I can't speak to exactly what each

752
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,280
Speaker 7: individual retailer is going to price it at. But our

753
00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:25,080

00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 7: once again, people marke things up whatever they mark it up.

760
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:44,320

Speaker 6: different reasons why it happens. Some folks it's their business model.

784
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:38,400
Speaker 6: Other folks that get behind other folks. You know, it's

785
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 6: just stuff stacked against them and it just gets away

786
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:44,719
Speaker 6: from them. Whatever the reason is, US as accompany, us

787
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 6: as a team, Cannabis presents.

788
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 5: Enough bullshit to deal with in its own right.

789
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 6: New regulations coming out, plenty of obstacles, you know, plenty

790
00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 6: of operators that are still trying to figure it out.

791
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,360
Speaker 6: If we can refine the number of folks that we're

792
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:00,600
Speaker 6: dealing with from a list like that, and we've learned

793
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 6: those lessons the hard way before, and you've got to

794
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 6: write that stuff off. But you also have to limit

795
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:06,440
Speaker 6: the time that you're going to dedicate to trying to

796
00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:09,520
Speaker 6: chase somebody down that this isn't the old days where

797
00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:11,319
Speaker 6: you know, you go play that game and you're gonna

798
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:12,440
Speaker 6: go get your money no matter what.

799
00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:14,319
Speaker 5: Right, you know, there's certain parts that it would be.

800
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:16,200
Speaker 6: Great if it was, but man, we're also working hard

801
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 6: to make this industry legitimate for all the right reasons here.

802
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 6: So for us, it's been about mitigating the risk and

803
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,759
Speaker 6: getting out in front of those relationships and trying to

804
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:26,719
Speaker 6: read the writing on the wall and man, if a

805
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:28,560
Speaker 6: brand new delivery service you've never heard of, as for

806
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:29,080
Speaker 6: a forty.

807
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 5: K order, it's not going to happen, right, you know.

808
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:32,399
Speaker 5: It's kind of as simple as that.

809
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,600
Speaker 6: So trying to sort through the bullshit as well as

810
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 6: having a team of folks that understand this industry and

811
00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:39,319
Speaker 6: know how to call bullshit for what it is, and

812
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:42,640
Speaker 6: then doubling down on the relationships that are great or

813
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 6: the relationships that have the potential to be great. Let's

814
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:48,920
Speaker 6: open up those conversations and build an actual partnership. Once

815
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 6: that those lines of communication are opened up and we

816
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 6: can actually talk just like this and cut through this shit.

817
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:57,240
Speaker 6: Real lines of communication are established and we can avoid

818
00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:58,359
Speaker 6: a lot of the ship that that.

819
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,359
Speaker 5: Is pulling people down. And the our balances are real.

820
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,240
Speaker 6: But man, if I understand that you guys are struggling

821
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:05,239
Speaker 6: or somebody's out on the attorney league that used to

822
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:06,799
Speaker 6: pay the bills, let's talk about it.

823
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 5: Sure we can understand that.

824
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:09,480
Speaker 6: And if you guys have been a great shop, we're

825
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 6: down to double down to support you guys as long

826
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 6: as that communication is there. Sure, So the unadult or

827
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 6: relationship is what we're going for and really just cutting

828
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,080
Speaker 6: for the ship. Let's look at each other in the eye,

829
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 6: Let's talk about how we can help each other, and

830
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:22,880
Speaker 6: let's understand each other's business.

831
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:23,719
Speaker 3: How do we fix it?

832
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 2: You know, because there's there's I mean, you know, I've

833
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,319
Speaker 2: heard some some nightmare stories and you know, I'm not

834
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:31,080
Speaker 2: in the business of putting people out there, but I

835
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:33,760
Speaker 2: am in the business of doing good business.

836
00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:36,439
Speaker 3: You know, and I appreciate companies that do things right.

837
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,080
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, you don't get to certain levels

838
00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:40,919
Speaker 2: by doing it the wrong way.

839
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 3: You know, it's and but it's so hard, you know,

840
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:44,960
Speaker 3: to identify.

841
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 2: Like you said, someone comes in all of a sudden,

842
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:49,840
Speaker 2: they're asking for forty thousand dollars and you know, you're like, okay,

843
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,120
Speaker 2: and and and they may they make good on the

844
00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:53,960
Speaker 2: first order, they make good on the second order, and

845
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,279
Speaker 2: then they come and it's almost the old school game,

846
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 2: like that's the old school hustle where you know, the

847
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 2: guys hey get attempted to do schools doing it, but

848
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 2: the new school's doing it.

849
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:05,759
Speaker 3: And it's just like, how do we fix it? You guys?

850
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,480
Speaker 3: Can you see a way? And and do you have

851
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:10,000
Speaker 3: to front to everybody?

852
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 2: Is there terms for everybody or is it something that

853
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:14,239
Speaker 2: most of these guys are paying CD with you guys?

854
00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:14,919
Speaker 3: Now, how's that going?

855
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:18,719
Speaker 6: There's it's primarily terms out there. You know, cood is rare.

856
00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:20,319
Speaker 6: We're all down to jump on it, you know, for

857
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,560
Speaker 6: what it is to really answer your question on how

858
00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 6: do we change it?

859
00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:25,280
Speaker 5: It's accountability and.

860
00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 6: There's no regulatory base that is holding anybody accountable fully

861
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:32,040
Speaker 6: on here. Just not having the traditional banking means that

862
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 6: everybody else has, We're just not opened up to those resources.

863
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:36,279
Speaker 5: Reputation.

864
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,319
Speaker 6: This is a small industry. Word bounces around pretty damn quick.

865
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:42,000
Speaker 6: If you're out there screwing somebody over, you know that

866
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 6: the next folks are going to hear it. And all

867
00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:45,520
Speaker 6: the good folks that that are trying to avoid that

868
00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:47,400
Speaker 6: stuff and are trying to prop up this industry as

869
00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:50,359
Speaker 6: it should be. Everybody's sharing that information and there's been

870
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:52,360
Speaker 6: tons of lists that have come out, different credit reports,

871
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:54,920
Speaker 6: everything else, some good, some bad. But it comes back

872
00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:57,480
Speaker 6: to that accountability and there's nobody you know, knocking them

873
00:36:57,480 --> 00:36:58,839
Speaker 6: over the head, really correcting them.

874
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:01,080
Speaker 5: It's more about avoiding doing business with them.

875
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:03,919
Speaker 6: And until there's more competition at the retail level, there's

876
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:05,120
Speaker 6: going to be room for bad actors.

877
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:07,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's only so many places to go shop out there.

878
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:09,560
Speaker 6: If there was a shop in every corner, man, competition

879
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,160
Speaker 6: is going to outweigh all the bad operators, and folks

880
00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:13,839
Speaker 6: are gonna gravitate to the good ones.

881
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:16,359
Speaker 3: You know. I mean, is it more bad actors than

882
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:17,879
Speaker 3: good actors right now? No?

883
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:20,879
Speaker 6: Honestly, I feel like it's getting slimmed down because man,

884
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,680
Speaker 6: there's less money being driven into cannabis right now. I mean,

885
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:26,200
Speaker 6: if you could purchase success in cannabis, people be lending

886
00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:28,480
Speaker 6: money hand over fis. That's not the case. That's not

887
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:31,480
Speaker 6: the case. It's folks are scraping to survive. There's nobody

888
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:34,160
Speaker 6: just raking it in out there. Everybody's fighting for it

889
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,560
Speaker 6: and the folks that are willing to fight for what

890
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:38,759
Speaker 6: the greater goal is and that's going to weed out

891
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:40,279
Speaker 6: some of the bad operators that are just looking for

892
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:40,920
Speaker 6: that quick fix.

893
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, I appreciate you selling you guys, you know,

894
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,799
Speaker 2: sharing that just because again, there's a lot of new

895
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:49,480
Speaker 2: people looking to get into this industry. There's people that

896
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 2: have been in this industry, and you know, it's important

897
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:54,799
Speaker 2: to have integrity and to operate properly. And it's so

898
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,440
Speaker 2: much easier, you know, you sleep better, you don't have

899
00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:59,360
Speaker 2: to you know, do it. But there's I'm I'm like

900
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:01,799
Speaker 2: I said, I've had you know, damn near fights in

901
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:03,279
Speaker 2: our studio because someone showed up and.

902
00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:04,640
Speaker 3: They're like, you do you guys owe me money? And

903
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:07,839
Speaker 3: I'm going, you know, like and I'm like, holy shit,

00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,799
Speaker 9: a bowl two weeks after my high school graduation and

931
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:31,680
Speaker 9: I burned my nose because it got caught on fire.

932
00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:33,640

Speaker 2: Question number two of the high five, what is your

939
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 2: favorite way to use or smoke cannabis?

940
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:52,279
Speaker 7: Dude, I'm going to go back to the ease of

941
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 7: the pre rolls.

942
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:56,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, just roll a joint, have one rolled, yeah, flower,

943
00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:56,719
Speaker 5: roll it.

944
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:59,239
Speaker 3: Up, roll it up? Huh about you?

945
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:03,479
Speaker 9: So I I've recently become an expert joint roller. So

946
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:06,480
Speaker 9: I like joints when I'm rolling them, or when other

947
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:09,839
Speaker 9: people that are equally as qualified drill them do, or

948
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:12,200
Speaker 9: because I live in a building that smoke free, I

949
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:16,160
Speaker 9: dab and I've become way more into dabbing. I feel

950
00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:18,160
Speaker 9: like the culture behind it's kind of more a little

951
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:21,600
Speaker 9: bit more pure just because people that's the wrong word,

952
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:23,600
Speaker 9: but there's just a lot of people that are really

953
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 9: into dabbing, that spend thousands of money on like beautiful

954
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:29,400
Speaker 9: art pieces, and it's like this whole different subculture of

955
00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:31,520
Speaker 9: cannabis that's kind of like pretty.

956
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 8: Cool to tap into.

957
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:33,560
Speaker 3: Do you have any nice pieces?

958
00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:34,400
Speaker 8: I don't.

959
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 9: I just have a Karta shout out Team Karta all

960
00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 9: the Way and a ne s glass attachment and a

961
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:43,000
Speaker 9: tough Teathers thing around it with a Zach Harrison ball cap.

962
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:43,680
Speaker 3: Nice.

963
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:47,440
Speaker 4: Question number three, Joe, pretty detailed. I think that's the

964
00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:51,920
Speaker 4: private school and that gets you that nice I'm not

965
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:54,239
Speaker 4: mad at you. Question number three of the high five

966
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:57,920
Speaker 4: with the California Love gentlemen, craziest place you ever used

967
00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:00,279
Speaker 4: or smoked cannabis?

968
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,640
Speaker 7: Well, I mean, I guess the place itself isn't so

969
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:06,880
Speaker 7: crazy as I just remember in like twenty twenty twelve,

970
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:10,359
Speaker 7: I want to say, on a trip in Hawaii, it

971
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:13,200
Speaker 7: wasn't so crazy where we finally smoked, but getting the

972
00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:16,920
Speaker 7: weed is what made it crazy, and then finally finally

973
00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:20,080
Speaker 7: making it happen, and then just getting to hit the

974
00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:22,440
Speaker 7: joint and beautiful first time i'd been to Hawaii. Just

975
00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:24,160
Speaker 7: mind blown. That's one that always sticks with me.

976
00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:27,120
Speaker 5: Good word.

977
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:31,000
Speaker 6: I think most enjoyable surprise smoke was on a flight.

978
00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:33,440
Speaker 6: Didn't realize that I had my little party pack on

979
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:38,000
Speaker 6: my onboard carry on and up opened that thing up

980
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,520
Speaker 6: bidway and I was like, oh shit. But then once

981
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:43,440
Speaker 6: we landed, it was like, oh shit, all right for it, man,

982
00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:44,880
Speaker 6: it works.

983
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:47,000
Speaker 9: So I'm going to go two parts in this question.

984
00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:49,719
Speaker 9: A great question, by the way, I would say one

985
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:52,439
Speaker 9: of my favorite times in it like not rare because

986
00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:55,040
Speaker 9: it was Canada and Canada weeds legal. But I was

987
00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:57,719
Speaker 9: in Whistler with my dad and we were watching the

988
00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:00,160
Speaker 9: Super Bowl at a bar and we started to talking

989
00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:01,759
Speaker 9: to these two dudes next to us and they were like, oh,

990
00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:03,400
Speaker 9: you want to go outside and smoke a joint with us.

991
00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:06,520
Speaker 9: I looked at my dad, I was like, you down.

992
00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:08,120
Speaker 9: He's like I'm down, but I don't want to lose

993
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,919
Speaker 9: these seats. So we smoked with them, but my dad

994
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,719
Speaker 9: and I did not smoke together. And then the craziest

995
00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:16,720
Speaker 9: time would be when I had a vape on a plane,

996
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:17,880
Speaker 9: and hit that in the bathroom.

997
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:19,040
Speaker 5: What the fucking vapes on?

998
00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:24,520
Speaker 3: Yeah? Really really good. Question or four of the High five.

999
00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:27,000
Speaker 3: What is your go to munchie after you get high?

1000
00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:29,120
Speaker 7: Petrings all day every day?

1001
00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:30,959
Speaker 3: Pe trings? Oh yeah, oh those are great.

1002
00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:35,399
Speaker 7: They actually pair weirdly well with a little glass of wine.

1003
00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:38,120
Speaker 3: Are they medicating petrings?

1004
00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:41,000
Speaker 7: That would actually be dangerous because of the volume of

1005
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:42,080
Speaker 7: petrings I'm intaking.

1006
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:45,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, man, I'm taking the seven to eleven.

1007
00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:46,200
Speaker 5: Guardatto's in the slushy.

1008
00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 3: Yes, he said Guardado was in a slushie. See for me. Weed.

1009
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:52,839
Speaker 9: Actually, when I smoke weed, I tend to It tends

1010
00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:55,800
Speaker 9: to suppress hunger because I tend to focus on the terpene.

1011
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 8: Lemon, I think or lemon, which helped suppress that.

1012
00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:03,040
Speaker 9: But my favorite thing to eat post smoking would be

1013
00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:05,840
Speaker 9: tacos from Tacos Cheetos, which is right in front of

1014
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,440
Speaker 9: Whole Foods on the West Side. Best tacos in La

1015
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:10,120
Speaker 9: I will fight you on that.

1016
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:14,520
Speaker 3: Anyone else fight them on that? Well, we have to

1017
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:16,280
Speaker 3: go by there and try them out. I mean, Jacob,

1018
00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:18,879
Speaker 3: don't say a good taco in my book. I gotta

1019
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:19,719
Speaker 3: try that one out.

1020
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:23,439
Speaker 4: Question number five of the High five California Love.

Speaker 3: Be and why?

00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:55,799

00:43:58,440 --> 00:43:59,960
Speaker 6: pops man shot my dad. I only got to smoke

1037
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:02,440

Speaker 9: So I'm gonna go two parts again because I like Friday.

1041
00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:11,680
Speaker 9: Dead person would be my grandfather. He never smoked weed

1042
00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 9: in his life, I don't think, but he would be

1043
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:15,839
Speaker 9: an awesome person to smoke weed with. Towards like the end,

1044
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:18,920
Speaker 9: he had Alzheimer's and you could kind of create up

1045
00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:20,719
Speaker 9: different stories. And I think at one point I said

1046
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:22,960
Speaker 9: I sold weed and he was like, Oh, that's kind

1047
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:24,800
Speaker 9: of cool. He's like eighty eight.

1048
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:26,800
Speaker 8: And then live.

1049
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:29,759
Speaker 9: I would love to smoke weed with Lebron James. It

1050
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:33,000
Speaker 9: turns out last Friday I smoked the weed that Lebron

1051
00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:36,440
Speaker 9: James smokes, which is the high Chew from Elusive La

1052
00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:40,520
Speaker 9: And I think that Lebron's just a bigger than life

1053
00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:44,080
Speaker 9: person and I would love to learn from him, and

1054

Speaker 3: Because I smell that food.

1060
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:57,759
Speaker 7: I would be remiss to not bring up the hard
