Speaker 1: he's starting to kick in. But the good thing is

25
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 1: none of us have the story of going from the

26
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:24,840

00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 1: run into Jeremy Segal. Jeremy has a book that he

28
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:34,520

00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,959
Speaker 1: Credible Talk one oh one. Absolutely, Joe, thank you for

30
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: having me. It was fantastic meeting you. Yes, guys, a

31
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 1: prison to penthouse. It's on my website. But it's an

32
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 1: amazing story about embracing confrontation. Aris at the top. So

33
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 1: what did you go to jail for? It? The first

34
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 1: time was for growing marijuana. I was like number two

35
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 1: hundred to get my weed card out here back in

36
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 1: like oh eight, where's out here? We're in Vegas. You

37
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: have in Vegas, actually in Vegas, and I had a

38
00:01:58,200 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 1: little more than that I I should have had, and they

39
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 1: gave me like a probation program that I messed up.

40
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 1: But yeah, I ended up going to prison, came out

41
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: homeless and broke, and then that is the journey from

42
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: going to the top and just building my core strength

43
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 1: and what not to using cannab. Yeah what was that

44
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 1: And by using cannabis. Yeah, absolutely, cannabis all the way nice.

45
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 1: So you know, I think it's it's um super impressive.

46
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 1: Like to say, you know the book that I'm looking

47
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 1: at right now, I love it. So let's talk about

48
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,519
Speaker 1: the book and and what drove you to actually put

49
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 1: a write your story that you've had to live. Definitely. So, uh,

50
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 1: the first time I went to prison was for growing marijuana.

51
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 1: But then I came out, I made something to myself,

52
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 1: started building law groups. Actually I was really good at positioning,

53
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:45,359
Speaker 1: and so I was building injury law firms and doing

54
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,679
Speaker 1: financially well. But I was still kind of wild child

55
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 1: and end up going back to prison for like duise,

56
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 1: and that was where I really kind of had to

57
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: had to thrive because I had a big sentence and

58
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 1: I didn't fit in at all. I was Jewish and

59
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: prisons ray we segregated, so I'm with all these white

60
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 1: boys SWASTI because I don't fit in at all. But

61
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 1: in prison, you can't stand out. If you want to

62
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 1: go up, you got to bring people up with you.

63
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 1: So the book is about how I thrived in prison

64
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 1: and how I've done the same thing before with the

65
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 1: only high school diploma, building law groups and then after

66
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,799
Speaker 1: coming out with feloniese and UM rise the top, buying

67
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 1: a penthouse, being an elected official, hosting judicial campaigns. How

68
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: did you do it as a Jewish kid in prison? Man,

69
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 1: it's all about putting it all on the line, you know,

70
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 1: Like in this industry, it's all about fighting, the willingness

71
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 1: to fight, putting it out there, you know, and thriving

72
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 1: by the rules, you know. And if if you get

73
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: basically just doing whatever the funk it takes, you know,

74
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: and a lot of people aren't willing to do that,

75
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 1: a lot of people back down, a lot of people

76
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: get are passive and they get kind of pushed around.

77
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: So in prison it was really about um adding value,

78
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 1: about holding your ground and about bringing people up with you. Well,

79
00:03:56,200 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 1: I you were in there is taking foods as far

80
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 1: as yeah, yeah, yeah, I get it. So So with

81
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 1: that being said, I mean, you know, did do you

82
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: still deal with some of the folks that you were

83
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: in prison with? As they're coming out and things. Because yeah,

84
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: so basically I was in a maximum security prison, not

85
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: because of my crimes, because of my intitutional behavior for

86
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 1: allegedly fighting and whatnot. But so in a maximum security prison,

87
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,160
Speaker 1: you're you're there with people that are never going home.

88
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 1: So I'm still tight with like the heads of the

89
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 1: other races, you know, the Mexican Mafia, the Arian Brotherhood,

90
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 1: the Crypts of Blood. So you know, I helped them

91
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 1: out a little here and there, but definitely prison was

92
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 1: like the single greatest investment of my life. In prison,

93
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 1: you gotta pay attention like every word, your tone, and

94
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 1: it's really about like building your group to get out,

95
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: not about like being selfish because I seen the biggest

96
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: dudes get stabbed by four dudes, no problem. You really

97
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 1: have to have that core strength be be about that

98
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 1: life and then also like be great with people and

99
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 1: like want the best for everybody, and in that sense

100
00:04:57,800 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 1: you can go to the top. You know, I think

101
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 1: some of the loyal, most loyal people are in prison

102
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 1: right because they have a different set of rules and um,

103
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, it's different, you know, it's not It's

104
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,039
Speaker 1: not like, you know, I hear a lot of people

105
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 1: do funny things and they get away with them. Over there,

106
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 1: you don't really get away with it, you know. It's

107
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 1: like in prison. Prison is set up for like maximum

108
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,159
Speaker 1: observance for the guards. I mean, you're not getting away

109
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 1: with anything, and the innates you. They're seeing everything. So

110
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 1: that's why it really is like people are in life

111
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 1: in general, they're really all about show and you don't

112
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 1: get that in prison. You can try it in prison,

113
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 1: but then you get taken out pretty quickly, so you've

114
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 1: gotta be a really solid dude. In my book is

115
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 1: all about building depth, using core strength, treating people right

116
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,040
Speaker 1: um and and doing so when you have your debt,

117
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 1: you're gonna rise the top every time. Fantastic. So so

118
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,719
Speaker 1: what what does the book look like when you start

119
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,119
Speaker 1: digging deep into it? I mean, is this like really

120
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 1: your heart and soul of everything? Or is it more

121
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 1: of an educational you know, is it a uh a

122
00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 1: lead magnet? What what is your goal behind the book?

123
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 1: So the book is really for anybody that's brand new

124
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 1: to a group and as an outsider, how do you

125
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 1: rise the top every single time? So it does talk

126
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: about some of my prison experience, but really it's just

127
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 1: a set of uh thirty different things you do every

128
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 1: day to rise up and conquer. So it's about being

129
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,479
Speaker 1: more assertive, learning to embrace confrontations. I mean, that's a

130
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: huge one. Most people are just too afraid to be themselves.

131
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: Hold people accountable, you know, and that's a big part

132
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,720
Speaker 1: of building business. That's a big part of moving into

133
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 1: legislation is, you know, holding people accountable, embracing confrontations, thriving

134
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 1: by the rules. Um. Uh So those are the big ones,

135
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 1: but really big on like connecting how do you connect

136
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 1: with people using enthusiasm? Um, all those things are in

137
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,720
Speaker 1: the book, talking about more ideas versus stories, your rituals.

138
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 1: There are your rituals? Correct, be my hype man. We're

139
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,280
Speaker 1: talking to Jeremy signals Jeremy. Uh. Not only the book,

140
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 1: but I heard you mentioned elected official? Is that community

141
00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,080
Speaker 1: elected officials? So basically I moved into a wealthy are

142
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 1: you when I came out of prison because I had

143
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 1: saved up some money while I was in, So I

144
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 1: came out, I buy at this really wealthy community and

145
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 1: it's all these like just entitled people who are rolling

146
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 1: are running our community. And so I ran for a

147
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 1: board of director's position. With that community, and I control

148
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 1: a five minute our bank account even as a five

149
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 1: time fell in. And it's just like you know, I

150
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 1: got people like Shack that moved in. I mean the

151
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,679
Speaker 1: consule of Mexico. Like it's a lot of heavy heres.

152
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 1: But the main thing is just be a solid person,

153
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 1: be transparent. People want to connect. You gotta have your

154
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: guard down, and so a lot of that book is

155
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 1: talking about as a man, even when you're challenged and

156
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: endangered situations, how do you thrive by being vulnerable, having

157
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: your guard down, letting people know what exactly what you're about,

158
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 1: so that you can have that deep connection and rise.

159
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 1: So prison the penthouse. We heard how you went to prison.

160
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 1: Yeah you get out, I said, you're homeless. Yeah, give

161
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: us a little step by step. What do you do? So? Yeah, exactly. No,

162
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 1: it was a beautiful journey though. You know, it's interesting

163
00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: when you come out with nothing. When you have less,

164
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: you get very focused and you don't have that pressure.

165
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 1: I noticed as things get going in life, you start

166
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 1: to acquire obligations and it kind of it doesn't allow

167
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 1: you to be created. So I came out of prison

168
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 1: the first time with literally nothing. My houses have been

169
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 1: raided from growing weed. I didn't have anything, so I

170
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 1: went to a lawyer's office, just a guy I knew

171
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 1: to use his computer and so I could do a

172
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 1: resume and use the internet to submit for jobs. And

173
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 1: within four months I was not only answering calls for him,

174
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 1: but I started managing the law firm. Realized I had

175
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 1: a real knack for building positions because it was all

176
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 1: relationship based, you know, building relationship with the clients, the doctors,

177
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 1: the insurance adjusters, the lawyers. And when you do that,

178
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 1: when you have a good system, everybody's treated right, you

179
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 1: start to thrive. You started to be consistent. These insurance

180
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 1: companies know what you're about. So I really started building

181
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 1: these businesses, saving up. Then I because I had done

182
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 1: some acquired success, I started buying really nice cars, and

183
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 1: the police really didn't like that. So that's how I

184
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: end up going back to prison. Was mainly driving crimes.

185
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,839
Speaker 1: I had a paranoia police at one point, so I

186
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 1: wouldn't even stop. I think I'm getting better. Where's Chris

187
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 1: that we have? We have a we have a police

188
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 1: officer around. How he left? That's right? We already yeah? Now,

189
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,959
Speaker 1: I mean listen, you know obviously if you changed your

190
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 1: mindset and being able to do that. I understand thoroughly myself.

191
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 1: You know, I grew up in Los Angeles in a

192
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: very um cultural deprived area and that has leveled me

193
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 1: into a fantastic place. Like I could truly understand your

194
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 1: your mission. So what would you give somebody you know

195
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 1: that's coming out of prison, you know, for the first time,

196
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 1: or even somebody that's in their own mental prison, because

197
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: you know, it's a mental prison versus a physical too.

198
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: And for a lot of people, like you said, they're

199
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 1: not willing to express themselves, they don't know how to.

200
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 1: And those things are brilliant, you know words, And I

201
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 1: love giving that kind of motivation because that's that's what

202
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 1: we're here to do and remind people once they could

203
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 1: use their imagination, it'll never go like once your imagination grows.

204
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 1: So what would you give to those advice for those

205
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 1: people you know that are listening that will help them

206
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 1: in their uh in their you know, vision towards where

207
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 1: they're going. The first thing I'll give them just for

208
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 1: hanging out listening with us, I want to give you

209
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 1: guys a free copy of my book if you uh

210
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,559
Speaker 1: text the number four eight text the word game g

211
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 1: A I n to it automatically send you a copy

212
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 1: of the book. The book is an absolutely great place

213
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 1: to start. It's gonna show you the process you go

214
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 1: through and how do you invest in yourself and in

215
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 1: people and push through how do you make adversity and

216
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,439
Speaker 1: hardship the greatest thing that ever happened to you? Um,

217
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 1: and then uh, that's a big part of thriving. Another

218
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 1: thing I would give is I mean I have video courses,

219
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 1: simple things like fixing your posture, drinking more water, and

220
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 1: honestly like being more assertive. That is a art that

221
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 1: you have to master and holding people accountable, not letting

222
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: people push you around. I mean, being passive is when

223
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: you're more concerned about them than you are you. Being

224
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 1: aggressive is when I don't get shit about you, I

225
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,839
Speaker 1: care about me. But assertive is that mutual respect, that

226
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 1: mutual aspect, and that is where you need to learn

227
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 1: to thrive. Embrace that discomfort and um, start to build

228
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: your team, start to give people your best, adding value.

229
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 1: So a lot of it, I guess to start is

230
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 1: being selfish and bringing value in yourself. You know, well,

231
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 1: it's a great thing we appreciate you Jeremy for coming

258
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 1: being a personality. I was always behind the scenes in media. Um,

259
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 1: and my person told me, you know, you need to

260
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,200

Speaker 1: out in front of the camera and not behind him. Um,

262
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,240

263
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,360

Speaker 1: Gina j became Gina is a part of my real name.

265
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 1: Regina is my name. I sliced off the R E

266
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 1: and added a J why at the end, and the

267
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 1: Jay is because introducing myself in the beginning, I used

268
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 1: to hand out Jay's as my business card. Oh that's awesome. Yeah,

269
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,079
Speaker 1: so it was like a dope introduction. People constantly came

270
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: up asking for business cards. I literally had to keep

271
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 1: the ship rolling, like I'd go like, give me fly minutes,

272

Speaker 1: I go the car, start rolling real quick. Okay, I'm back.

273
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 1: I went to get my business hard. So you wrote

274
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 1: your number your number on the joints then, No, I

275
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:08,719
Speaker 1: didn't never even go that far. The cold part is

276
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 1: I really didn't want I wasn't ready for the connection,

277
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 1: but just the following it was really more social. People

278
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,679
Speaker 1: are like, so, what's your handle? You know? And so

279
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 1: it became the attachment to the handle, um, whatever you

280
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 1: need to feed you know what I mean, behind the

281
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 1: branding and marketing and the connection to that you made

282
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,320

283
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:31,320

311
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,880
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. Travis set that ship all. Oh

312
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 1: my god, what happens that Travis brought me in the water? Yo?

313
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: I did some things I normally wouldn't even be dancing.

314
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 1: I was out there with the mermaid, you know. Yeah,

315
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 1: we described to the listeners what were you wearing? Um,

316
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 1: I don't shoot a sweater? You know, like it was,

317
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 1: I was in a sweater. It was it was cold.

318
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie, but that the heat that came

319
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 1: off the stage, it was so much fire that Travis

320
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 1: put off that stage. And not only that, not undermining

321
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 1: the other artists, but oh my goodness, when he put on,

322
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 1: he put on. So that is definitely one of my

323
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 1: take home I went to school with well, Travis and

324
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,440
Speaker 1: I went to the same school. So he put on

325
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 1: for our our city, and Fontana is our city. So

326
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 1: salute Travis Barker for putting on for Fontana, California. What's

327
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 1: your favorite song by him? Um? Shit, I don't know

328
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 1: if I had a favorite, because you know, um, it's

329
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 1: a group. Oh yeah, I wanted my same song. Yeah, um,

330
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 1: but I mean seeing him so low, seeing him do

331
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 1: something so solo and dolo like that thing, what he

332
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 1: did he needed, no, he needed no group and the

333
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 1: way he revived music through through a drum. It was

334
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 1: amazing to Nominoid, Like I felt like, you know, we

335
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,399
Speaker 1: were coming out of this quarantine and stuff. It was

336
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 1: to see somebody in front of us like really allow

337
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:12,159
Speaker 1: himself to just be in the moment. It was pretty.

338
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 1: Um it was a special thing. You know, you get

339
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:18,040
Speaker 1: to see people in their art and like when they're

340
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,439
Speaker 1: really in their zone. And to me, Travis, that was

341
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 1: to him in his own zone. It's kind of like

342
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:28,880
Speaker 1: how bud Tenders represents bud Tenders. Yes and out out

343
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 1: to the bud Tender Award the bud Tenders. And so

344
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,959
Speaker 1: we're excited because it's the time for the high five

345
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,720
Speaker 1: figh five. So we have these questions that we ask

346
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 1: uh not in any random order, but here's the first one.

347
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 1: How old were you when this's the first time that

348
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 1: you smoked? And where did it come from? First time

349
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 1: I smoked? I was seventeen. I was at a baseball

350
00:17:56,080 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 1: party in high school at the baseball team. They nominated

351
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 1: me for homecoming. Um, I was at a baseball team.

352
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 1: I ain't gonna lie. I hit something and I was

353
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 1: scared to go home where my mama nose. Now, my

354
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 1: father smoked, and so I was like, he knew everything.

355
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 1: I don't know what it was, but he I'm pretty

356
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 1: for sure that we let you know, cannabis, lets you know,

357
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 1: you know, and so yeah, he knew everything, and he

358
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 1: was just like, uh, I was more nervous going home,

359
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 1: But honestly, he was sleep So praise God, you like

360
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:31,840
Speaker 1: snuck into. I snuck in so fast, laid up in

361
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:33,720
Speaker 1: that sheet, and you know, I was out. I didn't

362
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,919
Speaker 1: have to see him. Um. Shoot, but I won't even

363
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 1: imagine if I had to see him. But that was

364
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,119
Speaker 1: the first time at a baseball party with baseball boys,

365
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,119
Speaker 1: salute you. And after that, I didn't smoke till nineteen

366
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:46,880
Speaker 1: until I got my own job to purchase my own medicine.

367
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 1: Thank yeah. Alright, Number two, what is your favorite way

Speaker 1: to use cannabis? I am a flower child. What's your

369
00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:59,119

370
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:03,000
Speaker 1: so I'm not gonna say favorite. I've been getting introduced

371
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 1: to I'm an influencer, so I get introduced some amazing

372
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 1: stuff out here. I visit cultivations and there's some hands

373
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,639
Speaker 1: out there, you know, So I don't want to undermine anybody,

374
00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 1: But honestly, they're I'm the O G girls. So if

00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,399
Speaker 1: try this call effects sexpen. Then you are like if

378
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 1: you're an influence, I can't wait to hear because you

379
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 1: are like an expert. All right, I did now I

380
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,160
Speaker 1: got all excited. Our way am I asking the next question?

381
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 1: Are you gene? Is it on me? No? I just

382
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 1: had the last one to you. You're number three. So

383
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 1: the craziest place you've ever used cannabis or smoked? Bossa Nova,

384
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:47,040
Speaker 1: who we put on in Bossa Nova during the pandemic.

385
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 1: Bossa Nova, thank you. We appreciate you because I kind

386
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 1: of kept it on the hush, like we told him

387
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 1: it's it's coming from over your fence. It's definitely not.

388
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:58,680
Speaker 1: U's definitely not. Might want to go take a peek

389
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 1: over another parking lot, but they let us through. They

390
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,919
Speaker 1: knew what it was. But Bossa Nova, we appreciate you.

391
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,639
Speaker 1: That was probably the craziest place, and honestly, trying to

392
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 1: get a team of real ones. This is so bad

393
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:12,479
Speaker 1: to say this I'm an influencer, so whatever. I'm too

394
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,160
Speaker 1: grown to really be doing a lot of musing price,

395
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:15,879
Speaker 1: But anybody want to be at Osberry Farm. I'm just

396
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 1: trying to say, all right, my favorite question to ask,

397
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:25,119
Speaker 1: what is your go to munchies after you get high? Who?

398
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 1: There are some good edibles before I go to bed.

399
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:33,879
Speaker 1: I will do an edible for a munchie because I'm

400
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 1: going right to bed. I ain't gonna do it through

401
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 1: the day. So if you guys respect me, try edibles

402
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 1: throughout the day, you're gonna have to come home with me. Um.

403
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 1: But absolutely my favorite. I'm a chocolate baby. I'm a

404
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 1: chocolate so if I could have some fruit with chocolatey

405
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,639
Speaker 1: is something you know, like a chocolate covered strawberry or

406
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 1: something chocolate covered pineapple? You know, I'm kind of little bougie,

407
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 1: little bougie taste. But but yeah, all right, So if

408
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:03,640
Speaker 1: you could smoke cannabis with anyone dead or alive, who

409
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 1: would it be? WHOA did they have to smoke? No?

410
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 1: Could I have influenced? I think they do have to smoke.

411
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 1: I don't know that's a good question. Panel Panel, Pet,

412
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,440
Speaker 1: Pet Do they have to smoke weed? Dead or alive.

414
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:26,639
Speaker 1: all right, Jannet, I have influenced who would I have

415
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 1: influenced to smoke some tree? So I'm an influencing canny babies. Um,

416
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 1: she's that's a hard that's a tough, tough call right there.

417
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 1: For me, I'm gonna call God. Um, I'm gonna probably

418
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 1: call on my brother Jesus. Jesus smoking weed with I

419
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:50,439
Speaker 1: don't think it was a great he made it. Gonna know,

420
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 1: why not smoke with the truth? The truth is the truth,

421
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 1: and so I don't know that's something. It's pretty close

422
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:56,880
Speaker 1: to the truth. Why not getting any higher? The higher

423
00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:00,240
Speaker 1: than most? Right? What do you think Jesus Jesus is rich?

Speaker 1: walking around and now we have Adrian Destiny, Ari Dmitri

458
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 1: downing from m I t A dash a z dot

459
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,879
Speaker 1: org Meta meet at meet at meat at Meat Out

460
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 1: And it was cool because last night Dmitri, we got

461
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:34,399
Speaker 1: a chance to talk a little bit about what you

462
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,160
Speaker 1: guys do and how you guys help so many people out.

463
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 1: But explain exactly what Meta dash a zy dot org is.

464
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 1: So Meta is the marijuana try transslciation of Arizona. As

465
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,439
Speaker 1: we have all these siloed market structures, people need to

466
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 1: know who to do business with and how to do

467
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 1: business in those particular states. So Meta has developed a

468
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 1: format that's sort of like the gateway to the Arizona marketplace.

469
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 1: If you look to learn or do anything with any dispensaries, cultivators, manufacturers, brands,

470
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:08,440
Speaker 1: ancillary auxiliary investment, et cetera. Meet as a one stop

471
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 1: shop for all that activity. On top of that, we

472
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:14,399
Speaker 1: do political stop in the States, and we also do

473
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:18,880
Speaker 1: assuming lobbying political stoff. We also do educational programs involved

474
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 1: a lot of other aspects of the cannabis community as well.

475
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,040
Speaker 1: One of the things I love on the website it

476
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 1: says we are the voice of Arizona's cannabis industry. Our

477
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:30,600
Speaker 1: mission is to help Arizona's cannabis industry with business and

478
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:35,160
Speaker 1: stay informed, network and thrive. We work directly with policy

479
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:40,439
Speaker 1: makers to ensure that Arizona's program is fair, rightly regulated,

480
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:43,400
Speaker 1: and successful. How hard is that to make sure? When

481
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 1: you say the word fair, I always think of the

482
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 1: term when I hear life is unfair, and I go,

483
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 1: you want fair, Go to Pomona, Homie, go to Orange County.

484
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:58,440
Speaker 1: There's the fair grounds. Ain't ship fair in life? You know? There?

485
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,920
Speaker 1: I mean, there's no absolutely fair in my My understanding

486
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:05,960
Speaker 1: of markets, regulatory structure, cannabis economics has evolved over the

487
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 1: last nine years that I've been involved, and I've truly

488
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:12,320
Speaker 1: realized that the only fairness is a free market tomato

489
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:16,960
Speaker 1: approach to cannabis that allows everyone to participate with their

490
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:20,159
Speaker 1: own skill, their own resources, their own knowledge and to

491
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:24,159
Speaker 1: create a framework where everyone has equal opportunity based on

492
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 1: their own So when when you say that, for me,

493
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 1: it's like the fair market has been the the illicit

494
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,600
Speaker 1: market right for so many years because it has been

495
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:34,919
Speaker 1: that so the people that were fortunate enough to just

496
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 1: have it built on their backs before regulation came into play.

497
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 1: We're talking about people that were just growing anywhere and

498
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 1: doing what they had to do. And I believe that

499
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:46,879
Speaker 1: about the plan as well. With some regulations though, making

500
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 1: sure that the people are conscious of not giving out

501
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,359
Speaker 1: fast food or bad products, you know, because I do

502
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:53,440
Speaker 1: think there should be regulations, but I think it shouldn't

503
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,159
Speaker 1: be such a hard entry way. You know, there's a

504
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:56,840
Speaker 1: lot to be learned from the o G s. How

505
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 1: many o G s we're giving out bad product? And

506
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:02,359
Speaker 1: in nine though, I mean, let's be honest, how many

507
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 1: were not that many? Well about say, we really don't know,

508
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 1: but most of them were truly organic and passionate about

509
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:10,440
Speaker 1: what they were doing. And so once it started becoming

510
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:13,280
Speaker 1: something that was different and and and people were trying

511
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 1: to make their plants thriving because they could use accelerators

512
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 1: that had you know, medals and toxics in them because

513
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 1: they realized that would give them more quality. Everybody one

514
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:24,159
Speaker 1: of those brackets. It was a dollar It was more

515
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,880
Speaker 1: of a dollar push versus a quality push. UM. So

516
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:30,119
Speaker 1: you're right. A lot of these people that were from that,

517
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 1: you know, the legacy market if you will, UM, didn't

518
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:37,159
Speaker 1: really dive into that, and so it started coming. I

519
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,240
Speaker 1: think right after it started, the legalization and everything else.

520
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 1: You know, I'm an ex prosecutor. I got into the industry.

521
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:50,919
Speaker 1: Album man, Oh what are those guys? It was? I know,

522
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:55,199
Speaker 1: I met him and me treat down Hey, So I

523
00:27:55,240 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 1: wanted to ask you do you remember me tattoos? He

524
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 1: went straight to jail. I forgot. We didn't even give

525
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 1: him initial Just how it is that being a former

526
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 1: prosecutor being like a supportive activist of cannabis. How do

527
00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:18,479
Speaker 1: you know? I mean, I'm always genuine about this. When

528
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 1: I came into the industry, I was thinking to myself,

529
00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 1: my family got a dispensary in Sedona, What a wonderful place,

530
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:27,239
Speaker 1: and how can I get And I was also an

531
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 1: economic develop quick prosecuting. I went into defense work, but

532
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,359
Speaker 1: I didn't want to be a salesman all day long.

533
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:34,800
Speaker 1: And you know what it's like being defense attourney. It's

534
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:36,639
Speaker 1: a lot of collections. So and that wasn't for me.

535
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 1: Did economic development the canvas industry s. So at first

536
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:43,000
Speaker 1: I was looking at the canvas industry as another business model.

537
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 1: While I was in the cannabis industry, had a stro

538
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 1: discover the culture, the community, the o g s who

539
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 1: are suffering more than anyone, and so it changed my perspective.

540
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 1: So I changed my perspective, yeah, myself so, and I

541
00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:58,880
Speaker 1: feel the same way. Like for me, you know, I

542
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,959
Speaker 1: come from the market, right. My family has, you know,

543
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 1: being growers all our lives. You know, my dad taught

544
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 1: me how to sell cannabis and you know, also taught

545
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 1: me that no other drugs were accepted, just cannabis. And

546
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:12,840
Speaker 1: and at the time, you know, I think, you know,

547
00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 1: growing up for for our household, it wasn't illegal in

548
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 1: our home, it was it was normalized. Um. And then

549
00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,800
Speaker 1: watching others you know, grow up into it now and

550
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 1: then I had to convert and get myself to a

551
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 1: more business professional level to be able to adapt and

552
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: deal with all the new markets coming into it, because

553
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 1: for a long time it was a street game thing

554
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 1: and now it's starting to become a professional business and

555
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 1: we need to scale it. So in order to we

556
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:35,959
Speaker 1: need to do the right research and put the right

557
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 1: people in place, right and and and one of the

558
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:41,000
Speaker 1: biggest challenges what you're you know, heading into is how

559
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 1: do you get past the regulations, how do you get

560
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 1: past the market structure? How do you learn about these things?

561
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,040
Speaker 1: There is no college course at the Yeller College of

562
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 1: Business is big College of Business and University of Arizona,

563
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 1: but they don't teach you anything about cannabis. And then

564
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 1: nuances of the regulatory structure, the market structure, and the histories.

565
00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 1: That's what Medicinal two thousand and twelve SU would evolve.

566
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 1: Who controls what, what's happening and why. So what MEDA

567
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 1: has done is set upon helping those who want to

568
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 1: get involved educate them about how it works. And UH

569
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:14,640
Speaker 1: Arizona's new Adult Use laws created the Social Equity Program,

570
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 1: so we're taking a big we're taking advantage of that

571
00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 1: to educate thousands of Arizonans, whether they're eighteen year old

572
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 1: college students or whether there are people that believe they

573
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 1: qualify under what as it's yet to be a defined

574
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 1: social equity program about how the Arizona cannabis industry works.

575
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 1: So that that's a huge part of what Meta does

576
00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:36,840
Speaker 1: is educate people for free how to get involved in

577
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 1: the cannabis industry. And that's that's that's all we can do.

578
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 1: And I've seen Meta says members How does someone become

579
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:48,000
Speaker 1: a member of Meta? So I didn't membership? How do

580
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 1: you become a membership a member of media? Well, you

581
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 1: have to sign up www dot m I t a

582
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 1: dash as dot org. We have sponsorship decks, we have

583
00:30:55,600 --> 00:31:00,200
Speaker 1: membership packages. Anyone can become a member. You know, tensive costs. Yeah,

584
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:03,320
Speaker 1: there's a cost, but there's no cost for the social

585
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 1: equity program that we're doing. That's free to the entire

586
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 1: country if they want to learn about Arizona cannabis how

587
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 1: it's how we cultivate the retail aspects of you and

588
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 1: resource insurance compliance, all the unique aspects of our cannabis

589
00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:19,840
Speaker 1: we try to help people with. So this the social

590
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:23,800
Speaker 1: equity program in l A. And are you talking right now?

591
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 1: How about type to the problem is? I thought he

592
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 1: was mad at me. No, see, I have three other

593
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,280
Speaker 1: co hosts who don't like to talk too much for

594
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 1: most so that's why I hotel room, not on the

595
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 1: air doing his job. So it's your room. Well, since

596
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 1: you said, since you said, prosecutors, but give me that

597
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 1: I can see I'm behind the sunglass. I forgave you

598
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 1: for that you were doing your job. Well, you are

599
00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 1: an attorney, right, I suspended so many sentences, I suspended

600
00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 1: so many finds that that that now I love you.

601
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:07,960
Speaker 1: But my question, my question though, what's the what's the

602
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 1: social equity program looked like in Arizona versus what we've

603
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 1: heard from like California and other states where all we

604
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 1: see is a predatory practices from rich investors trying to

605
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 1: take advantage. What's it looked like in Arizona. So, in

606
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:28,880
Speaker 1: Arizona the adult use pass in November twenty last year,

607
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,800
Speaker 1: and in it was all the medicinal dispensaries graduate into

608
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:37,040
Speaker 1: adult use dispensaries January. On top of that, there's thirteen

609
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 1: county back throor licenses, the twenty six social equity licenses

610
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 1: that are being issued. All these licenses are trading on

611
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 1: the secondary market for ten to twenty five million dollars.

612
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 1: So they're jiking. Well, I mean, it is what it is,

613
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,760
Speaker 1: so and it's not that it's like the opposite of

614
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 1: the point. Right, I'm with you. I I didn't write

615
00:32:56,840 --> 00:33:01,520
Speaker 1: the law. How how do we how do we fix it?

616
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 1: It's happening all over the nation, starting to roll out,

617
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 1: and it's I mean, it's pretty accepted. How do we

618
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 1: fix it? What do we do? Well, my I'm gonna

619
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:12,960
Speaker 1: pull out my magic wand right now I'm not gonna

620
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 1: wave now what we did? What we look? I mean,

621
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:19,320
Speaker 1: the social equity programs, while well intended, whether they're passed

622
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:23,720
Speaker 1: through initiative or structured by legislators or citizens, are always

623
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 1: going to have nuances, gaps, mistakes, occurrences that you can't overcome,

624
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,880
Speaker 1: such as the nature of all government activity. Very well intended,

625
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,080
Speaker 1: but it becomes an absolute mess. Sure, the way we

626
00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 1: fix it is the free market. Let the chips fall

627
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:39,360
Speaker 1: where they may, let everyone get involved. So if you

628
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 1: really want social I was about saying beyond that it

629
00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 1: needs to be like dirt, where you can go pick

630
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 1: up dirt, sell dirt, do whatever you want. Just the

631
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 1: free market will solve that problem because that because the

632
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 1: great companies will thrive and and ultimately, ultimately I truly

633
00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 1: believe that I like that theory. It's true. I I've

634
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:00,800
Speaker 1: been proponent for that for a long time, and I

635
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 1: do believe though once it becomes federally illegal, it is

636
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 1: gonna get rolled out. But it's gonna come out so

637
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:08,680
Speaker 1: fast through the costcos and the smoke shops in the

638
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 1: seven elevens. In my opinion, that it's gonna be another

639
00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,120
Speaker 1: cash grab, and it's gonna be very difficult for the

640
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,920
Speaker 1: mom and pop to actually sustain themselves in this market.

641
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,680
Speaker 1: Why why why this project that you guys are working

642
00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:22,759
Speaker 1: is so important? Well, the fact of the matter is

643
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:25,200
Speaker 1: all regulation. I'm gonna take a self very quickly here.

644
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 1: All regulation is the drug war two point oh. All

645
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:32,359
Speaker 1: regulation is the drug war two point oh. And all

646
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 1: we're conceding, all we're advancing, all we're supporting, is a

647
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 1: drug war two point oh fifty five years from now.

648
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:39,839
Speaker 1: We're gonna have to go back and look at things.

649
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 1: Why should you get a civil sanction? Why should get

650
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 1: to get a criminal sanction in Arizona? There's still a

651
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,759
Speaker 1: lot of criminal sanctions in place. You know this is

652
00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:49,480
Speaker 1: these are some nuances about economic theory that are not

653
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:51,839
Speaker 1: being discussed by many people, but I know you guys

654
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:55,279
Speaker 1: understand them. So all we're doing at meat is the

655
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 1: best that we can do. So the initiatives at twenties

656
00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:01,160
Speaker 1: six licenses are gonna be issued social equity licenses to

657
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 1: whoever qualifies for social equity. So we we looked at

658
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,640
Speaker 1: the situation and said, okay, it's a mess to hold

659
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 1: people accountable. Sometimes they're strong man. All these things that

660
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 1: a lot of we can't do anything about that who

661
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:18,200
Speaker 1: and how they decide is eligible for social equity? We

662
00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 1: can oh pine all of us can opine us to

663
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:24,879
Speaker 1: who deserves social equity. I always say, what would Jesus think?

664
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,320
Speaker 1: What would Jesus say? What would Jesus do? And Jesus

665
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:30,799
Speaker 1: would say they were all eligible for social equity? Right

666
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:35,680
Speaker 1: w W j D. Again, we have the reality of

667
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:38,239
Speaker 1: the laws which we have to work with. So we

668
00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:41,360
Speaker 1: thought to ourselves, well, we have such a huge network

669
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 1: in Arizona of industry leaders and and I'll be frank,

670
00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 1: they all want to do business with these future license holders, right.

671
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:48,960
Speaker 1: They want to sell in flowers, they want to sell

672
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 1: them edible lines. They want to have relations management contracts.

673
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:54,439
Speaker 1: So I called, I called a few of them. I said,

674
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:56,440
Speaker 1: would you guys be willing to teach and educate and

675
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,080
Speaker 1: train people about what happened over the last nine years,

676
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:02,759
Speaker 1: how the industry reworks who is who and share that

677
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,200
Speaker 1: with the potential social equity applicants, which I knew at

678
00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:08,360
Speaker 1: that time was anyone right, anyone by the law, it's anyone.

679
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:10,440
Speaker 1: It's now being narrowed down in June, but we started

680
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,880
Speaker 1: this in January. So if you go to our website,

681
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:16,480
Speaker 1: there's over about a hundred hours of industry leaders with

682
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:19,400
Speaker 1: their emails talking about how the industry works. So we

683
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,680
Speaker 1: challenged the industry to provide free education for the social

684
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:26,560
Speaker 1: equity applicants, but we accidentally ended up doing was providing

685
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:29,279
Speaker 1: everyone free education. So it's a great thing and we

686
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 1: couldn't do it. Like I called the guys that weed

687
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 1: maps and I said, look, this is what I want

688
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:35,960
Speaker 1: to do, and they're like, so you're giving lots of

689
00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: education and free information to everyone. That's the spirit, that's

690
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:43,520
Speaker 1: the philosopher. Our company. We're down. They sponsored us Coppersate

691
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:46,840
Speaker 1: Arizona company said look, we don't want any weird deals

692
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:50,800
Speaker 1: or anything. We just want to help Arizonans. Sponsorship Zuber Lawler,

693
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 1: another company said we want to sponsor Scott's Community College.

694
00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:57,759
Speaker 1: They want to teach about the cannabis industry in that

695
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,640
Speaker 1: business format for decades to come. So they need to

696
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,080
Speaker 1: know who's who and how the Arizona cannabis industry works.

697
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,320
Speaker 1: So they jumped on board. So more and more companies

698
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 1: and members of those companies have coming board saying, well,

699
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:10,520
Speaker 1: you know what, we can't define what social equity is.

700
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:13,879
Speaker 1: We can't control all these weird business maneuvers and manifestations

701
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 1: that occur. But what we can do is teach, and

702
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:19,000
Speaker 1: teaching is the beginning of social equity. I think Jesus

703
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:21,879
Speaker 1: said that, Dmitri, let me ask you what you're doing.

704
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:23,719
Speaker 1: Remember I don't remember if I said that or not,

705
00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:29,760
Speaker 1: but yeah, everything you're doing. You're the founder of Meta,

706
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:32,279
Speaker 1: and you know, I don't know is it only in

707
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,480
Speaker 1: Arizona right now? Because everything you're doing needs to be

708
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 1: in every state, correct. I agree with you, It needs

709
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:41,960
Speaker 1: to be completely So I love in in Arizona, and

710
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 1: I know you're the founder of Meta dash A Z.

711
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:47,560
Speaker 1: But we need meet at DASH c A, we need

712
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 1: meet at dash and V, we need meet at dash

713
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:55,920
Speaker 1: FL and we're looking at going that direction. Everything that

714
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:59,560
Speaker 1: we're doing is in every state already, but at just

715
00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:04,360
Speaker 1: these little water to Germany grow effect me. I'm a

716
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:10,719
Speaker 1: grower on a shower as well too. I didn't know that. Unfortunately,

717
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:14,359
Speaker 1: I can vouch for both of them. Than You're right.

718
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:17,399
Speaker 1: The look when you're in the locker room, you don't

719
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:19,840
Speaker 1: look okay. So I'm not gonna ask any questions alright.

720
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:22,880
Speaker 1: Speaking of that, you have some lovely ladies in Adrian

721
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,319
Speaker 1: next to you. What are what are the rules there?

722
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,600
Speaker 1: I know we have a few people that are part

723
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:34,520
Speaker 1: of do we have Destiny and Ari and as well

724
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 1: as Adrian. So Destiny, what do you do with the company?

725
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:41,200
Speaker 1: I am the director of operations. I started actually just

726
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:44,200
Speaker 1: on their social media. I I hit them up and

727
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 1: I said, um, do you guys need help on social media?

728
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:50,279
Speaker 1: And that was about four years ago. And from there, I,

729
00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:53,080
Speaker 1: you know, I met Dmitri. I started working very closely

730
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:56,400
Speaker 1: with Dmitri and I saw his his vision, his his

731
00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:59,440
Speaker 1: mission and I help him bring out his you know,

732
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:03,719
Speaker 1: his message to everybody. So awesome. That's awesome. Remember the

733
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:07,400
Speaker 1: biggest mistake Jesus made was picking men as apostles and

734
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:10,239
Speaker 1: he isn't that the truth? And Ari, what do you

735
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 1: do with the company? Um? I do a little bit

736
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:16,799
Speaker 1: of everything. Um. I started doing promotions for them. Um.

737
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:18,480
Speaker 1: Right now I'm in the process of trying to help

738
00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:21,080
Speaker 1: them find social equity applicants and trying to push that

739
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:23,400
Speaker 1: a little bit more and try to help them expand

740
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:26,600
Speaker 1: hopefully like you said, take it national. I love that idea.

741
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:28,800
Speaker 1: And Adrian, what are you doing with these cats? I've

742
00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 1: recently Um, actually this will be the first time I'm

743
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:35,319
Speaker 1: saying this publicly. On four twenty, I officially stepped down

744
00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:38,160
Speaker 1: from my ambassadorship with former President You sent the Fox

745
00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:42,240
Speaker 1: of Mexico, and when I heard what Dmitrius do DOWNY

746
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:46,080
Speaker 1: fired you. Let's talk about it lest you have that conversation.

747
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: After two and a half years of service in philanthropy,

748
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:52,279
Speaker 1: I i stepped down. You know, the Foundation is a

749
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:56,440
Speaker 1: wonderful organization. President Fox and Mrs Fox are amazing human beings.

750
00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:59,359
Speaker 1: But as you know, like I know, Uh, the game

751
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:02,560
Speaker 1: of working art is tremendous, and philanthropy if money happens

752
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:06,160
Speaker 1: to come along, it's great. Um. But after two and

753
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:08,120
Speaker 1: a half years of service, from what I found out

754
00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:11,520
Speaker 1: with Meta and Dmitri was doing social equity, it was

755
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:14,200
Speaker 1: only right to see what our sister state was doing.

756
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:18,839
Speaker 1: North of the border to Mexico. Mexico has pending legalization

757
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:23,359
Speaker 1: coming September, fingers crossed. Unfortunately they did delay again and

758
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,399
Speaker 1: they are in violation of some things, but hopefully they'll

759
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:30,520
Speaker 1: iron that out. And UM, yeah, we're looking forward to me.

760
00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:32,560
Speaker 1: I never got what you do with the company that

761
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,920

Speaker 1: from Bovida, one of our sponsors. She's got a booth here.

774
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:21,120
Speaker 1: We had Mara and Amanda from G four come visits.

775
00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:24,200
Speaker 1: A lot of our attendees came and just the German

776
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:26,480
Speaker 1: nation that came from that. There's Keith Allen right there,

777
00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:30,560
Speaker 1: the next best dressed man at this place, g four Live.

778
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:33,440
Speaker 1: He is a sexy human being, you know. And I

779
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,640
Speaker 1: can share a little bit about why Meta works is that,

780
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:39,240
Speaker 1: you know, I was having a couple because the owners

781
00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:42,160
Speaker 1: of the licenses gathered since two thousand twelve in Arizona,

782
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 1: two thousand sixteen and May two thousand sixteen, the first

783
00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:48,759
Speaker 1: Meta one of the owners of four they're now pure Leaves.

784
00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:50,680
Speaker 1: But he was sitting over in the corner sipping brandy,

785
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:52,680
Speaker 1: you know, just hanging out his watching and we had

786
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:56,000
Speaker 1: weed Maps and Leafley and all the sponsors and the

787
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:57,319
Speaker 1: rest of the wants were all sitting. I'm like, could

788
00:41:57,360 --> 00:41:59,560
Speaker 1: you go network with the vendors because they're the ones

789
00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:03,040
Speaker 1: who we've these organizations on the backup. And he's like,

790
00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:05,359
Speaker 1: I'm not interested. I said, well, could you bring your

791
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:08,880
Speaker 1: c suite and your management to the meeting because they

792
00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:12,200
Speaker 1: are they're looking to learn, to share, to grow, to acquire,

793
00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:14,600
Speaker 1: and you what's best, what's the latest so me to

794
00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:18,840
Speaker 1: quickly transition from an ownership club. Also, they wanted I

795
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:21,680
Speaker 1: probably shouldn't have publicly, But you guys are cool. One

796
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:24,520
Speaker 1: one person wanted to be They asked me, can you

797
00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:27,200
Speaker 1: make me into a guild so that we can control

798
00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:32,239
Speaker 1: the price of marijuana in Arizona. And I said, first all,

799
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:35,279
Speaker 1: that's probably illegal. Second of all, is just not in

800
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:38,040
Speaker 1: the spirit of what we're trying to do here. And

801
00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:40,640
Speaker 1: but third of all, I respect your honesty, and you're

802
00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:45,040
Speaker 1: desired to make money cannabis. But but so so to

803
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:47,040
Speaker 1: two things. And I wanted to mention this because everybody

804
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:49,200
Speaker 1: always talks about big farm and all this other stuff.

805
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:52,959
Speaker 1: The real enemy of cannabis is big money in big

806
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:56,800
Speaker 1: cannabis that's out there lobbying, trying to control manipulate things

807
00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:59,319
Speaker 1: for their own interests. That if anybody doesn't understand that,

808
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,040
Speaker 1: they're and they should stop talking about tobacco or this

809
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:04,960
Speaker 1: or that. They need to understand how things are being

810
00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:08,279
Speaker 1: manipulated by a few to control it and from the

811
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:11,200
Speaker 1: many from having it. That's we'll talk about a second. So,

812
00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:14,759
Speaker 1: so Meda has uh the synergy of all those c

813
00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:17,800
Speaker 1: suite management people that are looking for those new things,

814
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:21,320
Speaker 1: those new ideas. Well, it's great once again met to

815
00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:26,560
Speaker 1: dash A Z dot Org Dmitri. Everything you're doing is awesome.

816
00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:29,600
Speaker 1: Like I said, I hope realized are really getting national

817
00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:33,640
Speaker 1: because it's it's so interesting and standing up for the

818
00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:36,640
Speaker 1: people like this, standing up for the rights and once

819
00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:40,880
Speaker 1: again that keyword that I love that is never gonna

820
00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 1: work but fair, And it's like what we always try

821
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:46,920
Speaker 1: to get to, but it's so hard to understand because

822
00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:49,560
Speaker 1: there's always somebody trying to take that upper hand, whether

823
00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:53,800
Speaker 1: it's you know, the customer, the merchant, the government, big

824
00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:58,520
Speaker 1: brother police, everyone's trying to figure out what is fair.

825
00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:00,839
Speaker 1: So when you have in order to aization that's trying

826
00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:03,120
Speaker 1: to say, hey, let's try to balance it out for

827
00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:06,759
Speaker 1: everyone and come to a common ground. I commend you

828
00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:09,879
Speaker 1: for doing this, putting this together and hopefully it goes

829
00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 1: nationwide because this is the type of ship we need

830
00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:15,279
Speaker 1: in this community. Well like on one of your you

831
00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:18,040
Speaker 1: guys called CALIFFX or one of your sponsors, and they

832
00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:21,239
Speaker 1: understand that that brands understand that there needs to be

833
00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:26,440
Speaker 1: smooth transition and interstate commerce. Brands want to be everywhere

834
00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:28,560
Speaker 1: and they have to deal with the hurdles and obstacles,

835
00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:31,640
Speaker 1: the artificial barriers to entry that are being designed state

836
00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 1: by state. So it could be that brands come to

837
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,680
Speaker 1: support meet a National so that we can take it national.

838
00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:42,400
Speaker 1: Now they're uh brands, ancillary auxiliary companies like weed maps.

839
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:45,560
Speaker 1: Everybody wants to see innerstate commerce and most importantly, the

840
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:50,120
Speaker 1: consumers and the patients deserve choices and good interstate commerce.

841
00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:52,040
Speaker 1: So we'll see if we can get meet a national

842
00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:54,960
Speaker 1: together with the brands, with groups like cannabis talking. I

843
00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:57,279
Speaker 1: assume you guys aren't built on the back of ms

844
00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:02,000
Speaker 1: O s I don't know, but so, but there's no comment.

845
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:04,440
Speaker 1: You got, you got g T you got we're built

846
00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:11,719
Speaker 1: off the legacy market, sir, But you've got You've got

847
00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:14,840
Speaker 1: people investing hundreds of millions of dollars in in in

848
00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:19,200
Speaker 1: their business strategies, whether it's in Missouri or Pennsylvania or Florida, Arizona,

849
00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:21,640
Speaker 1: and those hundreds of millions of dollars have to be

850
00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:24,560
Speaker 1: answered to. And when you're paying twenty million dollars for

851
00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:27,000
Speaker 1: an Arizona license, do you think you are Do you

852
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:29,720
Speaker 1: think that money is not going to try to protect itself.

853
00:45:30,080 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 1: And that's directly contrary to the interests of the brands

854
00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:35,040
Speaker 1: and the interests of the consumers. And interests of patients.

855
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:38,080
Speaker 1: If Meta can get enough synergy, enough people working together,

856
00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:41,000
Speaker 1: working with you guys, maybe we can take a national

857
00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:43,160
Speaker 1: you know, I'll tell you what I'm all for it.

858
00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:45,000
Speaker 1: I like, I love what you guys are doing. I

859
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:48,680
Speaker 1: understand your vision. I believe in your vision um, you know,

860
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:51,480
Speaker 1: and it's important that we do link together and make

861
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:54,239
Speaker 1: sure that we all follow a same goal because what

862
00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:56,879
Speaker 1: happens a lot of times is we forget that we're

863
00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:59,000
Speaker 1: all in the same environment. We're all here to help.

864
00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:02,080
Speaker 1: It's says a lot of bad actors, and sometimes those

865
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:04,799
Speaker 1: bad actors don't know how to contain themselves because they're

866
00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:07,080
Speaker 1: just with that quick grab. And you'll know by the

867
00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:09,200
Speaker 1: people that are still here next year, in the year after,

868
00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:11,600
Speaker 1: in the year after, because they can't get equipped grab

869
00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:14,319
Speaker 1: if you're just here every year, because at the end

870
00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:16,000
Speaker 1: of the day, you've got to face the same people.

871
00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:18,880
Speaker 1: And so ultimately, I think our goal as as a

872
00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:22,279
Speaker 1: you know, in our responsibility is to create companies like

873
00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:24,680
Speaker 1: me to and be a part of these these movements

874
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:27,200
Speaker 1: and get as many people involved as we possibly can.

875
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:29,840
Speaker 1: So sincerely, you guys are doing great work and I

876
00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:32,040
Speaker 1: love it. Well, you know, what of the mistakes that

877
00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:34,680
Speaker 1: Jesus made was he walked into the temple and just

878
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:37,440
Speaker 1: would you stop talking about me like that? Well, you

879
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:40,800
Speaker 1: guys are all about religions. Use I was told to

880
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:45,360
Speaker 1: Jesus metaphors. This guy's Jewish is Mark Wasserman. By the way, Wasserman.

881
00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:48,960
Speaker 1: That's why we're here, My brothers, the one, he's the

882
00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:52,760
Speaker 1: jew for Jesus. Oh, there he is. Look, you don't

883
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:55,759
Speaker 1: don't he raise his hand with a cross, He's all.

884
00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:02,399
Speaker 1: You don't walk into the tables and you don't walk

885
00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:05,279
Speaker 1: into the temples and flip the tables. You walk into

886
00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:07,799
Speaker 1: the temple with your ideas and you talk to the

887
00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:10,200
Speaker 1: people and you figure out how they can make more money.

888
00:47:10,440 --> 00:47:13,279
Speaker 1: And then the greater ideas like hope, freedom and opportunity

889
00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:16,839
Speaker 1: will always win. So that's those are big ideas. Well,

890
