I don't get it. I don't get 15 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:49,640 Speaker 1: I don't get what you would say downtown l a 16 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 1: z zetoatro zetto, no noo zetto. So when you say downtown, hey, 17 00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:03,279 Speaker 1: you're outside the country because that's Mexico. They speak Spanish 18 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 1: in Mexico. That's why Spanish speakers here in the US. 19 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: I'm not stereotyping by saying you Spanish in Mexico, you 20 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 1: speak Spanish in Mexico. You did you stereotype? No ideoty 21 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: Spanish argue with me. It's just me and you today. 22 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:20,480 Speaker 1: I actually liked that you did. I think it's funny 23 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: because it's just I mean, because it's so true dog 24 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 1: I was. I know, and your wife's are wittier and 25 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 1: she speaks for different language. But the funny part about 26 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: what you're saying is I was literally downtown. That's why 27 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 1: I'm laughing. Going there's there's of course a lot, but 28 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 1: it's converting, it's becoming hipster and all these big buildings. 29 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: It's like Mr Trendy. It's crazy how much I mean 30 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 1: as we say that, though there's a there's so many 31 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 1: still homeless downtown. It's still crazy. But I was literally 32 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 1: there yesterday for a minute. I went to go see O. G. 33 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 1: Louis for a second. He says, Hi, by the way, 34 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: did you see he posted something? And then Snoop Dog 35 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: reposted we did we saw that he post a little 36 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: brother without his head? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, so all the 37 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: good stuff. Um, But as I was down there, I 38 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 1: was just being memory rise by you. Know, you know, 39 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: my my Mexican comes out big time because the parking 40 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: attendant is either Mexican, are uh what is it? What 41 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: is it Armenian? I feel like they're in the Mexican Army. Yeah, 42 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 1: that's what I mostly come across with over there. So 43 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 1: that's why I'm thinking it's so funny that you say that. Well, 44 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 1: we're actually gonna play some of the great voicemails that 45 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,239 Speaker 1: we get from people today on the show. But before 46 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,519 Speaker 1: we play some of those voicemails, Craig, of course, Mark's 47 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: not here. You can't hear his crying, whiney little voice 48 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 1: right now. And Blue had to step out to go 49 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: get some more dental work done. So the moral of 50 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: that story is kids, eat candy, and don't don't eat 51 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 1: so much candy, and brush your teeth, take care of 52 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: your mouth, as I will be the first one to 53 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 1: say that's the moral of my story too. And don't 54 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: do a lot of crank because when you do, when 55 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 1: you grind your teeth, then you lose eight teeth like 56 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: I did and have twenty five tho dollars with the 57 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,639 Speaker 1: dental work that you think. Damn, those lines were great, 58 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: They were not so good after I got sober. Do 59 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 1: you know why it's so much better that way? I mean, 60 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 1: you can get fatter if you choose to eat a 61 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:04,959 Speaker 1: lot of more food. But you know you could work 62 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,239 Speaker 1: out too though. It can motivates you. It could do 63 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: whatever you want. So before we go to some of 64 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 1: your news, I wanted to share some go green stories 65 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: facts stats with you guys out there. And it's just 66 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 1: as I give you this story, I'm hesitant because it 67 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 1: also gets me upset when when are when is everybody 68 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: else going to see this and realize what I'm about 69 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 1: to say is so beneficial. Colorado cannabis sales set a 70 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 1: new record yet again in July two hundred million dollars 71 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: in a single month for the first time they made. 72 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 1: This is all legal to folks. This isn't I mean, 73 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 1: and the black market is not that big out there, 74 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 1: but it's it's pops, don't get a twitch. No one 75 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 1: has the illicit market that we have. So these are 76 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: pretty good accurate numbers because they have it. But it's 77 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: not crazy. But to think they just made two hundred 78 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: million dollars, how much do you think that other states 79 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: got to think the six eights that are about to 80 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 1: vote on. It's the the other you know, there's thirty 81 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 1: five I think it is, you said right now, and 82 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: of course eleven of them are are fully recreational. But 83 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: it's just pull your head out of your asses, you guys. 84 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: I mean, according to the data from the Colorado Department 85 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 1: of Revenue, this is what it's making right now. That's 86 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: up thirteen point eight percent from June, another record setting 87 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,159 Speaker 1: month when the industry ranked in nearly a hundred and 88 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:28,039 Speaker 1: nine million. So they're just made one more million over 89 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: but still it's still growing. That's the point of this. 90 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: And it's like, you know, the Colorado industry of course 91 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 1: was the first one to go recreational out here, and 92 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: they they said, um uh, shattering two thousand nineteen record 93 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: of one point seven five billion in annual sales. Well, 94 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 1: guess what, that's gonna go even higher in I mean, 95 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: it's gonna keep climbing. I mean, but the problem is 96 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: we still need to get a hold of these taxes 97 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 1: and make sure it's reasonable and tax like any other 98 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: product on the mark. Are you familiar with the way 99 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: they attack in Colorado? And neither of my which we 100 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 1: gotta look at, I don't know what their taxes are, 101 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: and I don't believe they're anywhere near what it is 102 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 1: here in California. And that's my point because we've never 103 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: heard anything that says, oh, we have the same there, 104 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: and nor is anybody crying and complain as we have 105 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,159 Speaker 1: a lot of you have clients from there, as we 106 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: have friends there. We've you know, talked to him. For example, 107 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: we talked to somebody about doing a deal in Colorado 108 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: recently and asking about distribution out here. You have to 109 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: be a distributor in order to distribute productribute product in Colorado. 110 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: It appears now I'm not sure this was from talking 111 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: to someone who's in the business in Colorado, that they 112 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: don't have distributors. They still have the farmers come down 113 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: off the mountain and deliver the weed to the store. 114 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 1: Now they have to have a manifest that's fortivation license. 115 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: They have to have a cultivation license, but they can 116 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: just bring it down as they here. They don't have 117 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 1: to go through the middle man. So you're getting rid 118 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 1: of the distributor right there. Is saving money. I mean, 119 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 1: we've got such a horrible we should have more on 120 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 1: that stuff. Because he has cultivation he as that's why 121 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 1: he's actually looking to cultivate in other countries as well. 122 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 1: We didn't ask him about the taxes. Which can you 123 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:07,160 Speaker 1: get him on the phones one are your clients, Well, 124 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 1: we'll get him on there just to pick his brain 125 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 1: and bring us back some of that information, because I'm 126 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: actually really curious and as he's uh interested in the 127 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 1: California market, if you can pick his brain and ask him, 128 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: what do you see the biggest differences are because I 129 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 1: would almost imagine rolling the dice saying Colorado has a 130 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: better hand on it even though they're not making as 131 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: much money as we are in California. I mean, of course, 132 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: because you know, population wise, were making I mean, if 133 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: if we had more, if we had more than a 134 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 1: third of the cities in the state of California allowed 135 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: cannabis activities, I mean, we'd be crushing and and and 136 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,720 Speaker 1: all we would need to do is tax it like 137 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: any other product. We'd be crushing it or just tax 138 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 1: it like Colorado Colorado. See my point is, nobody's crying, 139 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: and I don't hear anybody crying, and we know quite 140 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 1: a few people out there. There's other states that I'm 141 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: hearing that it's way over over Price's saying Colorado is 142 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,600 Speaker 1: not though, so I figured Colorado might have it right. 143 00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:00,040 Speaker 1: Maybe you know what I mean. And that's my A 144 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: green moment, just saying, people put your heads head of 145 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: your asses when I say people, these other states and 146 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: these other studies and everybody, politicians in those states and cities, 147 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: when you look at this in Colorado continues to grow 148 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: and they just have another record sale month, two hundred 149 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: million dollars. I'm Joe Grande at your go green moments. 150 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 1: Can I get some cannabis news out of you? Crazy? Well? Yeah, 151 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: if you were listening last year, I mentioned this just 152 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: a tad but we'll go into a little more detail 153 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: that there's a total of thirty five states now that 154 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:34,239 Speaker 1: allow medical marijuana. Of those thirty five, eleven of those 155 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: also of legalized adult used for twenty one and older. 156 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: This November, six more states we've got, and this is 157 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: for adult use as well, Arizona, Montana, New Jersey, and 158 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: South Dakota. It's funny when you weren't here, your brother 159 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: and I kind of broke down those six states and 160 00:07:55,920 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: exactly which one is recreational and which one act. Two 161 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: more states are voting on medical marijuana as well, including 162 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 1: Mississippi and South Dakota. I think is voting on both. 163 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 1: I don't understand why they just don't open the gates 164 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: for both. Because you want it stronger, dough, because because 165 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 1: the politicians are so afraid of the optics that they 166 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: just they just can't roll over and go, you know what. 167 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: I think we should just straight up legalize it and 168 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: regulate it like any other business, taxes, like any other business. 169 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 1: They just can't do that. They have to justify, they 170 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:39,559 Speaker 1: have to justify going forward medical marijuana because it's medicine. 171 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: That's the only way they can put politicians can justify. 172 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 1: And folks, guess what. We just had Sean from Weed 173 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 1: for Warriors on the podcast. It helped him stop wanting 174 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 1: to commit suicide. And countless other veterans, let alone people 175 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 1: that aren't veterans that are feeling this way. They just 176 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: have emotional problems that don't want to sit there and 177 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 1: take a little pill. Let them take a stronger Those 178 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 1: pills that are killing people. Number one killer for white 179 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 1: males is the white pill. It's crazy, crazy, crazy, and 180 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 1: and and you think the politicians white males, white males, 181 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 1: guess what's one is killing your own people the most, 182 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 1: the one that you're okay, I mean, they need to 183 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 1: get to the point where they're in politics to do good, 184 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 1: not to get elected. That's what the politician needs to do, 185 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 1: because right now they're more worried about getting elected or reelected. 186 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 1: That's why they that's why they put off the more 187 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 1: Act for now. They don't want to look bad like 188 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 1: they're trying to pass them cannabis uh, cannabis regulations or 189 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 1: cannabis decriminalization or legalization when they should be doing other things. 190 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,719 Speaker 1: And I think it's it's just as important, if not 191 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 1: more important than other things. It's it's even sad when 192 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: you think and you hear like, oh, in France they're 193 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 1: looking to legalize. It's you know, the French Committee. They're 194 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: talking about doing this. Everyone's talking about doing it on 195 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: not a you know, a little colony state whatever they 196 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 1: call the different states in France and rants all of France. Granted, okay, 197 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: it's as big as one of our states. I get it. 198 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: If you want to sit there and play the you know, 199 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 1: let's count the people. Let's look at the size. It's 200 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: not that big of a country, no doubt, but the 201 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,439 Speaker 1: whole country is deciding let's look at this and say 202 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 1: let's go fully legal with it. Why can't we Oh, 203 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 1: there's too many people talking. Is this that that? Here's 204 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: some numbers for you. Survey found fifty of Americans, including 205 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 1: fifty three so more than a majority of Republicans and 206 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:38,679 Speaker 1: sevent of Democrats favor the More Act, which would deschedule 207 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: cannabis and promote social But despite this bipartisan support, these 208 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 1: freaking moderate Democrats convinced the House leadership to hold off 209 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 1: on the vote on the bill because it could damage 210 00:10:55,240 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 1: them politically heading into this election. Like, it's actually the opposite. 211 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 1: I think you'd have a landslide victory if you come 212 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 1: out in favor. Actually, they're just so afraid of it 213 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: they can't grasp it. But that's the people that are 214 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 1: in power. We have the ones that are in power, 215 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: the ones that are running for the seat, the Senate seat, 216 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 1: or the House seat at the federal level. They're the 217 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 1: ones that we've been reporting every week. Yes, the new ones, 218 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 1: and that's who we wanted. That's why you gotta get 219 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 1: out and vote and vote in these new people who 220 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: put in their policy statements legalize cannabis, not these old 221 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: fox who have this old way of thinking and cannot 222 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: get off. Pull their heads out of there, you know what, 223 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,440 Speaker 1: in order to make them a bunch of old fox. 224 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:47,719 Speaker 1: If you're gonna edit assets, I don't know what your 225 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 1: problem is. You know it's funny too. It's like what 226 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 1: I say in this article that I was reading that from. 227 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,599 Speaker 1: It says that this that they're they're afraid how it 228 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: might look. But they're telling us that, you know, like 229 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 1: this guy writes, the position they're taking is nonsensical given 230 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 1: the widespread popularity of cannabis right now across the US. 231 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: It's in more states than not, folks, What is your 232 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: problem if what I don't get if it's in more 233 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 1: states than not than those senators and and and House 234 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,439 Speaker 1: of Representatives, whether you're Democrat or Republican, your state has 235 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,959 Speaker 1: said I want this, So go to the fucking federal 236 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:31,560 Speaker 1: level and get it done. When you get it done, 237 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 1: your constituents have voted on it, they say we want it. 238 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: Why aren't they taking their marching orders? Remember, they work 239 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: for you. They work for us. They're not out there 240 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 1: all on the island on their own. They work for you. 241 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 1: So fire their asses and vote someone else in but 242 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 1: you gotta get off your butt, and you gotta go register, 243 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 1: and you gotta vote. What do you think of my 244 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: random theory that I haven't shared with you or anybody yet? 245 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 1: You ready for this one? I have a gut feeling 246 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 1: that once Texas says okay, then all hell breaks loose 247 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 1: and it's gonna go good. I think Texas runs everything. 248 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: Everything's gonna run through Texas. Once Texas gives the cannabis 249 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 1: thumbs up, then well a judge overturned the ban on 250 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 1: the smokable hemp, on banning smokable hemp, so you can 251 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: smoke oke camp at this point. And don't get wrong, 252 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,319 Speaker 1: I think it's going in the direction right now, right, 253 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 1: But I think Texas controls all and just because it's 254 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: in the middle. And of course, you know Jerry Jones, 255 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,079 Speaker 1: the owner of the Cowboys, he's just such a big 256 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm kind of kidding but not. I mean, 257 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 1: they're just Texas is the oil spot. Texas is a big, 258 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 1: big money spot of this country. When you look at 259 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: this country, a lot of money. I thought Oklahoma would 260 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: be last on the list, but Oklahoma doesn't pull in 261 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: the money like Texas. Texas. Oklahoma is pulling in a 262 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: lot of but they're not Texas. Texas got oil fields 263 00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 1: after oil fields, they got it from there running to 264 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: the Gulf that tech says pulls and probably the most 265 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,840 Speaker 1: money of all fifty states. I mean, California does pretty well. 266 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: We got this company called Google, Facebook, of course, Oracle 267 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 1: and some of the things. California is probably number one. 268 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 1: But I'm just saying Texas, in my random theory and opinion, 269 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: once they say it's okay, that's when it's gonna go. 270 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 1: It could be that could be there we go. We 271 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 1: got Bernie Sanders out there tweeting. He says, here's a 272 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 1: radical idea. Instead of arresting poor Americans, just proportionately African 273 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: African Americans and Latinos, for possessing marijuana, let's start prosecuting 274 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 1: the crooks on Wall Street for laundering money for drug cartels, 275 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 1: suspected terrorists, and corrupt foreign officials. I love when this 276 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 1: isn't that radical idea? Randomly, again and again and again 277 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 1: when we go, well, I wonder why not because so 278 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: many hands are in the cookie jar that we don't 279 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 1: get to put, you know, the slap on those ones. 280 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 1: But we could put the slap on the hands of 281 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 1: the young little black kids and Mexican kids that are 282 00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 1: on the street pedaling a couple of pounds for peanuts 283 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 1: compared to the millions and billions that these wall street 284 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 1: cats are making off the same industry. It's a joke. 285 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 1: It's every time I hear that when it likes not 286 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: that any of the browns or the browns what I say, peanuts, Sorry, peanuts, 287 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,840 Speaker 1: I'm sorry for using a reference for peanuts. You even 288 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 1: caught me off. Garden came on and like what now 289 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 1: in California here, we need people in every city, I 290 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 1: mean I city, in every in every city to get 291 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 1: out and vote. We've got over twenty five local ballot 292 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 1: initiatives statewide dealing with cannabis all up and down the state. 293 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 1: It's time here. I actually read off the read off 294 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 1: the cities and those other states that are about to come. 295 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: Those six ones are very big. To those six states 296 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 1: that we mentioned earlier, those are very huge November. To 297 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 1: go out there and vote. Absolutely, you gotta get out 298 00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: everywhere for exercise, your exercise, your voice, and you're right 299 00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: to vote. Every vote does count. Please don't think it doesn't. 300 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 1: Every vote did you always feel that way about voting. 301 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 1: I've always voted, Yeah, you know, it's always voted, and 302 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: I gave you whether it counts or not counts. If 303 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 1: I didn't vote, then I can't complain. And I always 304 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 1: felt that way. And I always felt like, weirdly in 305 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 1: my head, like minorities weren't able to vote at a 306 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 1: young age, and neither were women. And I always feel 307 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 1: like it's my duty being you know, and died that right. 308 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 1: I swear to God, I think exactly that people have 309 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 1: fought and died for me to go over there and 310 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 1: color in, punch, hit the thing, whatever the way I 311 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 1: can do. It. Used to be filling the bubble with 312 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 1: a pencil when I first started voting, and now it's 313 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 1: full and just put poke a hole in on a 314 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 1: little machine and put your little tab in, or now 315 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 1: it's you know it's I love it and I love going. 316 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: I love the process of it. As I say, I 317 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 1: love the process of it. I also love now which 318 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 1: I've been doing the last probably with four or five votes, 319 00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 1: is the mail in ballot. And if you're not doing 320 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 1: just the best easy way I keep brain right there. 321 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: I literally have talked to my kids three days ago well, 322 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 1: whatever it was.

And I told you I mentioned my 364 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 1: political history of did you ever hear that? I'm not sure. 365 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: So growing up I was so as as you say, 366 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 1: vote for Joe grinded. I literally, at one stage in 367 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 1: my life thought I wanted to run for president, like 368 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 1: at my young age. When I say young age, I'm 369 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 1: talking high school. So fifth grade, fifth grade president, sixth grade, 370 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 1: sixth grade president, eighth grade a president, a freshman year, 371 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,920 Speaker 1: freshman class president, senior year, senior a sp president of 372 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:21,200 Speaker 1: the school. Right, so every time president, I'm not doing that, Mark, 373 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 1: I'm not doing that. But it's all about job. I'm 374 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 1: telling you my political uh views and aspects of when 375 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: I started going there. So then my senior year in 376 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 1: high school, I got asked to be a keynote speaker 377 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:33,880 Speaker 1: in Sacramento for the Title four Indian Education Program. Because 378 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 1: I was also part of the Native American cultural I 379 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:37,959 Speaker 1: used to go to powers and dance and seeing all 380 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,400 Speaker 1: this stuff. So I was actually a fancy you got 381 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:47,920 Speaker 1: a friend, you know, the fancy fancy dance so bad 382 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: you know what the other one is. It's fancy and traditional. 383 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 1: So those are the native dancing for Indian tribes. You 384 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: have a fancy dancer, which are the colorful bustles. You know, 385 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:57,520 Speaker 1: you still have the roach. This is called the roads 386 00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:59,919 Speaker 1: that goes on top of the head and the chest, 387 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 1: chest plate and all this stuff. So but the fancy 388 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:05,120 Speaker 1: dancers are the colorful ones. The traditional dancers are more 389 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: like the leathers the leather fest uh eagle feathers on 390 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 1: the back. Just a's a different look in a different 391 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:12,439 Speaker 1: style dancing. And you gotta be really high to do it. 392 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 1: Not at all. But the point, the point is I 393 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 1: used to go to the level of power, get the 394 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 1: Indian frybread and the Indian tacos and just oh so good. 395 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 1: And I used to dance every summer at the fairgrounds 396 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 1: growing up. And so my point is leading to Sacramento 397 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 1: to be a keynote speaker, me wanting to follow my 398 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 1: political aspects of Oh I think this is good. I 399 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 1: want to make a difference because whether you believe this 400 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 1: or not, I or maybe you can see this way 401 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 1: if you think about me, I always want to do 402 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 1: what's right for everyone. I want to do it's fair 403 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,080 Speaker 1: for everyone, whether it's our team, whether it's me doing 404 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:43,439 Speaker 1: something for our team, Like I'm not gonna do that 405 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: by myself. We're all gonna do it. I'm not gonna 406 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 1: do it. We should all do this. You know. I 407 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 1: have a view like that on life. So I was 408 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:53,360 Speaker 1: finally able to go speak on something and I was like, well, 409 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 1: this should be done like this, because this is right. 410 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:57,919 Speaker 1: It's fair for everyone. You know, I'm ahead of the 411 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 1: title for an education program in San Jose. This is 412 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 1: it's gonna help. The majority of the city kind of 413 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 1: broke down all this, Well, no, you cast can't do that, 414 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: and what the birst your bubble? Oh my god, burst 415 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 1: my bubble. And because we couldn't do that because of 416 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: this and this and this, and because of the political 417 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 1: reasons of why you can't. And I went right, So 418 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: you can't do what's right because of this, you can't 419 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 1: do what's right for this neighborhood, into this community that 420 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 1: I live in. We'll screw you and your politics. I'm done. 421 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 1: And so by the time I went to college, I 422 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,640 Speaker 1: did not get involved anymore. And I mean I still 423 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 1: helped out and do a few things, but my point 424 00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 1: is go votes behind all that history of my you know, 425 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 1: life story. But it is politics in its finest of 426 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 1: why people do things and why they have to do that. 427 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 1: But you know what, Joe, We're gonna take a break. 428 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 1: When we come back from that break, I'm gonna go 429 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 1: over all the cities in the state of California that 430 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,280 Speaker 1: have cannabis measures on the ballot and we'll take your 431 00:21:50,280 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 1: calls and listen to the voice notls.

Those cities get that lit. 487 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: So we have a good chance to add twenty and 488 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,880 Speaker 1: it's still a dent when we have four hundred and 489 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 1: seventies something cities in the state four d seventy six 490 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 1: or eight or something like that. My brother knows the 491 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 1: exact number. And then we have like eighties sumpthing counties 492 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 1: and we only have a third that allowed this. So 493 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 1: twenty five more is good, but it's still dropping the bucket. 494 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 1: And they wonder why is the illicit market so strong? 495 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 1: I mean, it's like whack a mole. There are so 496 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 1: many illicit market if it's because what happens is if 497 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 1: you want to come, if you want to have any 498 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: legal business, you don't go to a city that allows 499 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 1: cannabis legally. You go to a city that's banned it 500 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 1: because they don't have the resources to shut you down. 501 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 1: The cities LA though, well l A is legal, has 502 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 1: so many popping out there that well they've cut they've 503 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 1: cracked down on thousands of them, but there's still a 504 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:44,160 Speaker 1: lot more. I mean, it's a dense city and they 505 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,639 Speaker 1: can't get to everybody. But they have shut down quite 506 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:50,680 Speaker 1: a bit. It's still there, no doubt me. Oh yeah, 507 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 1: because you have the people who have been doing this 508 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,640 Speaker 1: for twenty years. They've been our clients, and they shut down, 509 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,160 Speaker 1: they pop up next door, they shut down, and they 510 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,400 Speaker 1: pop up in the same spot twenty four hours later. 511 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: I was literally talking to a guy yesterday who knows 512 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 1: a guy and uh he literally was just switching locations 513 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 1: and I was like, yeah, He's like, what do we do. 514 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 1: We can't get this other product?

If there's jail time, he does it 525 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 1: and gets out and he's taken care of. That's the 526 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,679 Speaker 1: way it's always been. And the city they take care 527 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,239 Speaker 1: of that guy's family, everything, whatever he gets taken care of, 528 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 1: that's our period taken care of.

The voting not only at the 532 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,439 Speaker 1: federal level and the state level, the city level is 533 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 1: actually more important at this point in time. If we 534 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,679 Speaker 1: want to open up more markets in the state of 535 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:11,399 Speaker 1: California and get safer medical get safer adult use, weede. 536 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,159 Speaker 1: I mean, I think I've argued with Joe about this 537 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 1: before in the past. I've been smoking for forty something years. 538 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 1: God knows what people have grown the weed I've smoked with. 539 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 1: I've never gotten sick.

Good question. I think everything he's saying is 594 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,959 Speaker 1: on point as far first first, Joey, I hope hopefully 595 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 1: you'll be listening to this. Uh, you need to make 596 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:38,520 Speaker 1: sure that the person you're coming here to work with 597 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:42,479 Speaker 1: their cultivation is actually licensed. Make sure. How do they 598 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 1: find that ensure their license? You go to weed wise 599 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: dot com. I think that's one of the websites, but 600 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 1: you can you can look it up. They have a 601 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 1: new website which just came out. They consolidated all three 602 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 1: different bureaus that regulate cannabis into one weed licensed search tool. 603 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 1: So you can go on probably the BCC dot dot 604 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: BCC dot c A dot com and you can probably 605 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 1: find that to put in licensing information by the name 606 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 1: or the license number. But make sure they're licensed, because 607 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 1: if they're not licensed and you get caught, you'll never 608 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 1: be in the industry at all. Well, that's not necessarily true. 609 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 1: You can still be in the industry, goes to jail 610 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 1: and becomes eligible for other ways to get in an 611 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 1: industry you can't see, well, you won't be an owner 612 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 1: in the industry. You might be wild to work in 613 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:29,880 Speaker 1: the industry, and it depends. Some cities make you go 614 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 1: through a LifeScan for all employees, so if you have 615 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: any kind of weed h charges or weed convections, it 616 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 1: could disqualify you from even being an employee with a 617 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 1: licensed regulated I mean, I think you're coming in the 618 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 1: right time because it is c October. It is the 619 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 1: right time to be out here.

I personally feel like the entertainment game 624 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 1: is very much like the cannabis game. Relationships follow through. 625 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 1: One of the best ways to get educated would be 626 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 1: to try to find some kind of a micro business 627 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 1: where they have distribution, cultivation, retail sales, so you can 628 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 1: learn all the different aspects of the business. And also, 629 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 1: I don't know what they teach in Massachusetts for this 630 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:19,600 Speaker 1: medical Cannabis science master's degree, which I think is awesome. 631 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 1: Uh they have I think we have Oaksterdam, which is 632 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 1: another university, uh that teaches you cannabis how to act 633 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 1: in the cannabis business in the cannabis world.
