00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 1: to I don't think it goes down like that no more, though, right,

100
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 1: I'm sure it does. Yeah, at a certain age level,

101
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 1: you're not living there anymore. And we're just at at

102
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,599
Speaker 1: that age where we have to deal with that and Kirsha,

103
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 1: where are you from Ohio? Chamber experience so big Lebron saying,

104
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: I mean like Ohio like that, I feel like he's

105
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 1: following me. Actually everywhere you go there is Yeah, that

106
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 1: is exactly what it feels like. I actually made a

107
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: documentary about him leaving Cleveland. Did you really? Yeah? It

108
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 1: was a form of catharsis for sure. Did that bother

109
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 1: you as being a Cleveland, Ohio person? Like like a

110
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: lot of people were burning his jersey and he was

111
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,600
Speaker 1: so big, like he was your guys claim to fame.

112
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 1: Let's just faces And I wasn't burning jerseys. I was

113
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 1: filming the burning of the jersey. Really, I wanted to

114
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: tell that story, and I knew that he would very

115
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 1: likely leave, but my hope was that he would return

116
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 1: to the city as a philanthropist, which he absolutely did.

117
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 1: So he's given back quite all. Oh dude, the things

118
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 1: I see and read about that guy are unbelievable. To

119
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,919
Speaker 1: school that he built out there, to give back, the fund,

120
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 1: the scholarships that he gives to so many kids, I

121
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,040
Speaker 1: think he's just an abundance. And then to go back

122
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 1: and win a championship for them. Exactly, he's done his due.

123
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: He can lie away. In my opinion, if if I

124
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: was from there, i'd feel like, Okay, dude, you've done so.

125
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 1: That's how you feel too, That's exactly how I feel

126
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 1: about it. That's good because I like that. Yes, I

127
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:14,239
Speaker 1: did well college. Well, it's interesting because I did briefly

128
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:18,040
Speaker 1: go to University of Colorado Boulder, but ultimately my kicked

129
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 1: out of Colorado. I just I just knew too many

130
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 1: six year seniors there. So but I ended up at

131
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 1: Ohio University and I graduated from there. And now you're

132
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,960

00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 1: long have you guys been dating? It's going in four years?

156
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 1: Actually you guys meet at the company or how this

157
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: go down? No? No, I worked for a partner company,

158
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: UM and he actually had a background in bioscience and

159
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 1: I had a background of medical devices. So they set

160
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 1: him up with interviewing me, feeling me some questions, and

161
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 1: you know, a few months later he became my go

162
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 1: to source on cannabis for more than cannabis. First, Cannabis

163
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 1: started with number one source for everything. I should use

164
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 1: the radio voice. That's right. You have a bird that

165
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 1: I can smoke? I sure do so. So now you

166
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 1: guys are married. Oh that's so. Isn't that crazy to

167
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 1: think how cannabis brought you guys together like that? That's awesome.

168
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 1: And we hired her on, yeah, two years ago. So

169
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 1: you were with the company. I've grabbed them, George, if

170
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 1: you want. I've been with hot Box for six years now. Um,

171
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 1: and then two years ago we brought her on because

172
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,680
Speaker 1: we wanted to relaunch this brand and I do not

173
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 1: have the experience that this one does in marketing. And

174
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 1: she came in and kind of set us on a

175
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 1: good path. And then, um, I got to be the

176
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 1: creative and then she let me kind of have two

177
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 1: years of getting to play in a giant playground and

178
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 1: express my art to the brand. So it's been a

179
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 1: good time. And now she's going to go right back

180
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 1: to school and finish it up. She's a hard worder. Yeah, yeah,

181
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's interesting, especially coming from a kind

182
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 1: of a science background and come from a dynasty of scientists,

183
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 1: and they're kind of wondering, you know, what are you doing?

184
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,880
Speaker 1: I went into marketing, but the h looking at that

185
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:19,559
Speaker 1: and seeing how the marketing and advertising in cannabis has

186
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 1: really outstripped the scientific research. And that's largely because of

187
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 1: government involvement, of course, but that is why there's so

188
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: much mythos that you see throughout the industry. So my

189
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:32,959
Speaker 1: goal was to make sure that we ran that back in,

190
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 1: made sure everything was covered by substantive research that what

191
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 1: we're telling people we can put our name behind, but

192
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: also harness a lot of the good that this plant does.

193
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 1: You know. So, now does Hotbox have have um grows

Speaker 1: I didn't know that was you guys. Yeah, yeah, we're

231
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: all I'm saying. I didn't know this that his passion

232
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,120
Speaker 1: look at it. The owner of the company has been

233
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,320
Speaker 1: round since O nine. A lot of the licenses in

234
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 1: La are his. We've sold stores to meadmen, to cookies,

235
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,319
Speaker 1: We've sold them to all sorts of backpack boys. Took

236
00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 1: over our store for us down in San Diego. Uh.

237
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 1: You know, we play well with others. You know. We

238
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,320
Speaker 1: like to kind of just keep moving and building. We

239
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 1: have a couple of stores here in La one on

240
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 1: Melrose that is across from an Adidas store. So that's

241
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 1: always fun because we get a discount. We give them

242
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 1: a discount, you up, Yeah, it goes back. We're good neighbors. Yeah,

243
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: and then we got a store Northridge. And then we

244
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 1: have a Cookies in San Diego. Yeah, that's that's kind

245
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 1: of our baby, man. That's it's a beautiful store. They

246
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 1: came in and they cleaned it up. We really got

247
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 1: to know Cookies really well during that time and became

248
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,960
Speaker 1: good partners. And that's kind of where some of the

249
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 1: designs that I came up with for them were um,

250
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 1: but it never got These are all just prototypes on

251
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 1: that end, sure. But then, yeah, the main part of

252
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 1: our business is growing flower. That's what we've we've always

253
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,200
Speaker 1: been doing. We owned dispensaries so we could move our

254
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 1: flower back and like you know, from nine to seventeen,

255
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 1: and at around twenty twenty we decided to push forward

256
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 1: on hot Bocks and then that's kind of where it's

257
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 1: gone from here. And this is where you get all

258
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 1: of this crazy stuff that we've made. And you know,

259
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 1: I mean, having having a good leader inside your company

260
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 1: is super beneficial. You've learned, right, because he allows the

261
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 1: innovation to happen. And that's kind of what put us

262
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 1: on the map, was just getting to innovate our brand.

263
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 1: So it's hot box then, and I'm just want to

264
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,680
Speaker 1: be clear, I did I hear four dispensaries, right, is

265
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 1: that right? So there's four dispensaries, Uh, several three or

266
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 1: four different grows as well throughout southern California. Three grows

267
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 1: at Lathinka Poema and one in north Ridge or some shit. Yeah, okay,

268
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:32,440
Speaker 1: north Ridge and Diard Hot Springs, and then in what's

269
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 1: owner's name. I would love to tell you I'm not discussing.

270
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 1: He would not be happy with me. The man behind

271
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,320
Speaker 1: the very old school. He likes to stay kind of

272
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 1: away from it. Um. But you know, there's a there's

273
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 1: a testament why I've been with him for six years. Yeah.

274
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 1: You just got to trust the leadership, and especially in

275
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,599
Speaker 1: this industry, you know, where you're constantly a lot of

276
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 1: people a job hop trying to find their home. I

277
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 1: got really lucky to come into this business and find

278
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 1: my home right away. Yeah. And these stores are all

279
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 1: different names, so it's not like chain. You guys aren't

280
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: doing the hot box name of a dispensary, corrects them.

281
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: Is the brand right? Right? The brand right? Oh? So

282
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 1: the hot box is the cannabis brand that you guys

283
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 1: are growing from. Got it? Then? Okay? Cool? I thought

284
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:14,839
Speaker 1: it was apparel, thinking only okay, but it's actually the

285
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 1: name of the fire that you guys are smoking, right exactly. Yeah,

286
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 1: So it started off as that, and we we wanted

287
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 1: a way to work around the cannabis advertising rules because

288
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 1: we couldn't really advertise anywhere, especially online. Sure, so that's

289
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 1: where the apparel brand came from. Trojan Horse. Yeah, yeah, yeah, no,

290
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 1: it makes sense. It's how you have to in order

291
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 1: to market. He's like, oh, let's create a brand and

292
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 1: then build the brand while you're building there, and the

293
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 1: brand goes hand in hand with cannabis. I mean, if

294
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 1: you hear hot box, you're already known what it means.

295
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 1: It shout out. Actually a good clothing line too, though,

296
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 1: I mean you know what I mean, it's it's it

297
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 1: sounds great. So talk about the flower for a second.

298
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 1: What's like, what kind of strains are you guys running?

299
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 1: You know, what kind of growers do you guys have?

300
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 1: You know, where's the formulations come from? All that good stuff? Yeah,

301
00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 1: so our our head grower again another old school kind

302
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 1: of guy. So I won't mention his name, but he

303
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,320
Speaker 1: is very heavy into the science and that of it,

304
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 1: and he loves these plants. I don't think I ever

305
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 1: see him leave the cultivation before ten ten pm at

306
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 1: night like this. This guy is edicated. Yeah, he loves it.

307
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 1: He was an award winner in Colorado for years and

308
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 1: then six years ago he came in to work for

309
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 1: us cleaned up our cultivations and he I just man,

310
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 1: I has never met somebody who loves the flower as much.

311
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 1: You know, if I read a chance to drag him

312
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 1: out in the public and get him away from the

313
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 1: grow I mean, you would never hear somebody speak. So

314
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 1: I'm passionate about what they do. That's to day out

315
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 1: and it's that's again another reason why we stick around

316
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 1: with this company. And a lot of these genetics are ours.

317
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:39,920
Speaker 1: We do a lot of cross breeding. We do a

318
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:42,400
Speaker 1: lot of research into it. Like I said, we just

319
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 1: popped open to R and D facility which is strictly

320
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: built for growing new genes and in growing new strains.

321
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 1: And a lot of these are what you see up here.

322
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 1: So you have like icarus heads just drived off of

323
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: Gelerto lineages. You have buttered biscuits over on this end

324
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 1: over here, which is a Florida og and a it's

325
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 1: a biscotti that is crossbred with itself. So you're making that. Yeah,

326
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 1: oh yeah, yeah, we're generally that's why we get to

327
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 1: we get to have fun name in the names. Man,

328
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 1: we get some that butter biscuits. Dog, you just got

329
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 1: me hungry, right that. Yeah, he's a master of that.

330
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's it's and it's I think that's what

331
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 1: kind of lends to a little bit of like the

332
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 1: popularity of hot boxes. We're giving you things that you've

333
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 1: never had before. We're trying to get you new kind

334
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 1: of highs and not necessarily just based off THHC, but

335
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 1: off of the very heavy turpeene profiles that we pump

336
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 1: into these plants because that's what we grow for us,

337
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 1: for turpeenes. Okay, yeah, and the art and the artwork too,

338
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 1: because the latest brand, Refresh is very rooted and street art,

339
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,479
Speaker 1: you know, which is a very subculture of our counterculture.

340
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 1: Just like cannabis. I think those two go hand in hand,

341
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 1: and that is what, you know, that's what hot box

342
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 1: is really about. Hot Box is about the people, because

343
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 1: cannabis is about the people, you know. And I feel

344
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:01,160
Speaker 1: this hip hop flavor, street vibe to the look, the print,

345
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: the font, you know what I mean, it's and it's

346
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,320
Speaker 1: old school hip hop too. It's not like new school

347
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 1: hip hop. I feel this old school hip hop flavor

348
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 1: to it. I just I took what I loved in

349
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:13,159
Speaker 1: the nineties growing up as a kid out here, and

350
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,440
Speaker 1: took my So then you loved me. Then you better

351
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,920
Speaker 1: say that. I know you better. I mean I was

352
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 1: a lot bigger back then. But you know, you're cleaned up,

353
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,159
Speaker 1: you're looking great, but you're still just as smooth as

354
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:26,639
Speaker 1: you were back then. On power I remember I remember

355
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 1: being in junior high, which I'm sorry to aid you,

356
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 1: but shit, please for sixty five he looks good. Thank

00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 1: you to tell you. Let him know, Gardie, we will

358
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:41,520

359
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:42,919
Speaker 1: that's what in our class was. And we sit there

360
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:44,800
Speaker 1: and just listen to you. And that's a lot of

361
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:46,879
Speaker 1: good memories from them. I remember listening to you when

362
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:48,920
Speaker 1: one guy cut off his finger on accident on the table.

363
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 1: So all right, yeah, all good times. How fun was that?

364
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,719
Speaker 1: It was great? Yeah. The teacher refused to look at him.

365
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:56,359
Speaker 1: He thought it was one of those fake classic fingers

366
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,200
Speaker 1: from back then. We kept telling him, no, go back

367
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,360
Speaker 1: to work, and we're like, no, he's bleeding up out man,

368
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 1: like he's really rolling down high the background narrating for us.

369
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,479
Speaker 1: Oh that's great, man, It's just it's cool that you

371
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 1: like I say, the way it's written, I feel like

372
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: it has that hip hop flavor to it, which is cool.

373
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:28,560

Speaker 1: you know, the difficult challenges you guys have been through,

397
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:31,040
Speaker 1: you know, being a brand, because you guys have been

398
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:33,120
Speaker 1: around for a long time, you know, so that you've

399
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:36,080
Speaker 1: had to have some you know, some you know adversity, right,

400
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 1: So tell us about that. Plenty plenty of failures, especially

401
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 1: in the beginning, um, you know, as we were coming

402
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:46,240
Speaker 1: from the illegal world to the legal recreational world, UM,

403
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:50,640
Speaker 1: legacy market. Yeah, I have to adjust how I say things.

404
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:56,360
Speaker 1: It's the same way that great Um, I guess you mean.

405
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 1: The best way to put it is is when I

406
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 1: came into the cannabis business, um, and and it went regulated,

407
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 1: It's it's like trying to build a brick wall, and um,

408
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:08,400
Speaker 1: the government and other people are coming in and they're

409
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 1: not just pushing your brick wall over there, throwing the

410
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:12,640
Speaker 1: bricks at you, and you're trying to build this company

411
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 1: at pace and you're expected to perform like a company

412
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 1: that's one hundred years of experience behind it, and then

413
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:19,919
Speaker 1: they change it all and then they change it, right,

414
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 1: because that's the that's the stuff through my education platform,

415
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:25,399
Speaker 1: we would teach and I would I wouldn't say the

416
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 1: brick well, you know, but i'd i'd say, imagine, you know,

417
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:30,159
Speaker 1: you have a plane and you take off and the

418
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:31,879
Speaker 1: plane but the plane's not built yet, but you have

419
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:33,480
Speaker 1: to get it off the ground and you're in the

420
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:35,240
Speaker 1: middle of the air. And then all of a sudden,

421
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,399
Speaker 1: you know, you're actually trying to build this plane in

422
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 1: the middle of the air because it's not and you

423
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 1: can't land it until you know, and then and then

424
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,880
Speaker 1: there's no and there's no there's new regulations every month,

425

Speaker 1: all had to step back because we're not that brand

457
00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 1: and we're like, man, do we want to release a

458
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 1: forty two percent because that's a that's taking you to

459
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 1: another level? Yeah. Um, And so we went and had

460
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,120
Speaker 1: it tested again just to make sure, because we get

461
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 1: nervous about releasing something that potent and be able to

462
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:26,640
Speaker 1: back it up and do it again. Yeah, someone will

463
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 1: snatch it off the counter and try to, oh yeah,

464
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 1: debunk you. And it does. Yeah. And it's a lot

465
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 1: of like you know, hey man, like we'll we'll hand

466
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 1: over coas, we'll show you the process. You know. I

467
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 1: come from a bioscience lab background, so she so we

468
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: we take it serious when we when we have a

469
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,680
Speaker 1: company testing our products for us, um can I shout

470
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 1: out two Rivers Lab. Yeah, man, two Rivers Lab. I

471
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:50,480
Speaker 1: mean they're they're accredited where they're up north. So and

472
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 1: but if they come down. Yeah, I believe so. And

473
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 1: they come down to pick up our flour every single

474
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 1: week whenever we need to. And they really honed in

475
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,360
Speaker 1: our testing process. I mean there was sens where you're

476
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,400
Speaker 1: jumping ship all the time. We've been with these guys

477
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 1: for almost two years. Never leave. You've probably tried everybody.

478
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,160
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, the whole gamut. Man, it's been everybody,

479
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:09,880
Speaker 1: And I mean we've made good friends throughout the years

480
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 1: and a lot of them moved and gone to other

481
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 1: states by now. But um, this Two Rivers Lab, I

482
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:15,600
Speaker 1: mean they just they came in and they came in

483
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,919
Speaker 1: with a lot of very good old bioscience knowledge and

484
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,200
Speaker 1: applied that to cannabis. And now we feel like we're

485
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,439
Speaker 1: getting more true results coming out of them, especially for

486
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 1: our terropines. And what's you guys best store like the Yeah,

487
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,120
Speaker 1: I would say this Baby Cookies in Mission Valley. Man.

488
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:32,880
Speaker 1: People if people just love that brand and you can't

489
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:34,920
Speaker 1: hate on them, It's it's hard. You want to sometimes

490
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:36,399
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, I want to be doing that, you know,

491

Speaker 1: but it does it does really really really well. Yeah,

493
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 1: they'll have their selling point. They do. Yeah, Well, Melrose

494
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 1: is a funny store. I could only imagine Melrose because

00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:57,200
Speaker 1: traffic that comes. What's that one called One's called Rose? Well,

496

Speaker 1: on mel Rows. So sorry, I liked I liked the play. Yeah,

498
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 1: it's it's you know, it's it's a team effort. I mean,

499
00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 1: like you get to talk to us, and we're just

500
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: we're kind of like at the bottom of getting the

501
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,399
Speaker 1: weed to you guys. Um, but we like to focus

502
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: a lot on our growers, you know, like we'll pump

503
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,119
Speaker 1: out interviews on our on our Instagram to kind of

504
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 1: have our growers talk about the flower because they live

505
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,400
Speaker 1: with it every single day and we want to really

506
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:26,879
Speaker 1: hear from them what they're growing, you know, and I

507
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 1: know that there's people other than just a bunch of

508
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 1: flash behind the flowers that they're buying. And not only that,

509
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 1: we're gonna take a break real quick. But when we

510
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 1: come back, as you mentioned your Instagram, I noticed that

511
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 1: you guys were the first cannabis brand could do a

512
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:43,159
Speaker 1: photo shoot with transgender models. I want to hear about that.

513
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 1: Talk about that. Commend you guys for that. We'll be

514
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,640
Speaker 1: right back after this break, it's Cannabis Talk for one.

515
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 1: We'll be cannabis talk, you know one. Welcome back to

516
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,639
Speaker 1: Cannabis Talk one O one. Calli Effects is full and

517
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:05,199
Speaker 1: broad spectrum hip. Extracted products contained cbeed, CBG, and some

518
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,240
Speaker 1: thirteen hundred other elements naturally derived from the hamp of

519
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:11,040
Speaker 1: the plant. You guys do feel the effects at Callie Effects.

520
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:17,879
Speaker 1: Chris did in case something I noticed Kirston, I mean, geez,

521
00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:28,679
Speaker 1: correct myself, like beer that usually helps here here here, Kirsten, Uh,

522
00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:33,440
Speaker 1: I noticed that you guys did that a transgender model,

523
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 1: you know photo shoot? What inspired that for you guys

524
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:41,120
Speaker 1: to do something different like that? And you know that's

525
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 1: just kind of cool and a little bit about it. Yeah,

526
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,119
Speaker 1: but that was a lot your baby too. But um

527
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:54,400
Speaker 1: so I mentioned previously, cannabis is inherently counterculture, about inclusion,

528
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 1: about fighting stigmas. It seemed like a very natural point

529
00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 1: when we launched our apparel brand and the model for

530
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:06,199
Speaker 1: which was Apparel for Humankind, to create a platform as

531
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 1: well for transgender models. In fact, that photoshoot was the

532
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:13,200
Speaker 1: very first photo shoot for a young trans model named Austin.

533
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,840
Speaker 1: We were very honored to be part of that she

534
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 1: had just won a model Search talent event, and it

535
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:25,120
Speaker 1: just it seemed like a very natural opportunity because with cannabis,

536
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,680
Speaker 1: it's it's so it's been stigmatized, it has such a

537
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 1: political history. You can't get away from any of those things.

538
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 1: I think it's really important to acknowledge those things, especially

539
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:39,479
Speaker 1: the relationship it has with the LGBT plus community, how

540
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 1: much it's factored into healthcare for LGBT people there. It's

541
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,479
Speaker 1: really difficult to separate the two. And since we were

542
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 1: already were about trying to make sure that we reflect

543
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,560
Speaker 1: our community and that we are again very inclusive, approachable brand,

544
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 1: it made sense to do this. I think it's beautiful

545
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 1: for you guys to do that. I mean, you know,

546
00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 1: there's a lot of you know, lgp what you say

547
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 1: plus yeah, LGBT plus yeah yeah, uh, because there's there's

548
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:12,640
Speaker 1: always plus that plus size all a plus I think,

549
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:21,159
Speaker 1: and incompasses all plus size. It could be no, but

550
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,320
Speaker 1: I think it's it's good to include everybody and and

551
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 1: and just give you know, those a shot because I

552
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 1: think sometimes you know, those communities get missed, you know,

553
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,440
Speaker 1: and a lot of people just don't consider that, you know,

554
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 1: because you know, you might have an operator that is

555
00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,639
Speaker 1: UM just doesn't think about it, or or maybe as

556
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 1: a negative towards it. UM, Let's be honest. It's out there.

557
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:42,879
Speaker 1: So for you guys to make a stance and and

558
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 1: and put that, how did that those articles and those

559
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 1: pictures come out? And how where can people see them? Yeah,

560
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 1: work with a No. One spectrum one. They did a

561
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 1: brief news story on us that day and then a

562
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 1: lot of the photographs you can see on the war

563
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 1: hot Bucks website or on the Instagram. UM. Again, so

564
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:00,879
Speaker 1: the way we approach it as it wasn't like a

565
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 1: call out. We weren't trying to run around with the

566
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 1: giant flag saying hey we've got transgender models. We're just

567
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,880
Speaker 1: using those models because they deserve to work as well.

568
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 1: You know. And we were good friends with the guy

569
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 1: who owned Slaves Models, which is the first transgender modeling agency,

570
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:17,000
Speaker 1: and he's gone on to do big and great things

571
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:19,040
Speaker 1: inside that community. And I mean he's got shows coming

572
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:21,520
Speaker 1: out on like HBO and Netflix for like America's Next

573
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:26,080
Speaker 1: Top Model type content, and uh, we talked about it,

574
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,800
Speaker 1: and you know, Bravo. I think he's also been in

575
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 1: Bravo as well, he's got he's, he's he's he's a mover.

576
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 1: This guy makes things happen all over the world. You

577
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 1: should get him on too and have him hang out

578
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:37,080
Speaker 1: with us. Bring oh, bring some runner on the show

579
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,960
Speaker 1: our events. You want to hear some good stories. Oh yeah,

580
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 1: he's got him. Yeah, he's. When I worked at San Francisco,

581
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:43,400
Speaker 1: I used to do a lot of things with a

582
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 1: bunch of transgender theory models and that guys that would

583
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,320
Speaker 1: go and do things on stage. And since I've been

584
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,719
Speaker 1: in contact with people in the Bay Area so much recently,

585
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 1: I just made me remember so many of these people

586
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 1: that I used to hang out with. It I loved

587
00:28:56,200 --> 00:29:00,120
Speaker 1: because their makeup was flawless. Like my dude was do

588
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 1: his makeup like, swear to god, the dudes would do

589
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 1: the makeup way better than the chicks. I mean, I

590
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 1: just in my opinion, like when you looked at him,

591
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 1: they're like, wait a minute, shit, so on point, like

592
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:15,840
Speaker 1: oh yeah, hey, what's up, Larry. There's there's definitely a

593
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 1: part of that too, is that you know, we look

594
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:20,800
Speaker 1: at things very artistically inside the brand, and you know,

595
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 1: beauty is beauty, it doesn't matter where it's coming from.

596
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 1: And these people deserve to be seen because they are

597
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,920
Speaker 1: beautiful in their own right. Um, and a lot of them,

598
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 1: you know, we knew because they used cannabis for depression

599
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,440
Speaker 1: and for frustrations and stuff that they go through in

600
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 1: their lives. Being this way right because you're you're a

601
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:39,360
Speaker 1: group who's getting attacked on all sides. And the goal

602
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,000
Speaker 1: is just to kind of bring it out and if

603
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 1: people wanted to talk about it, great, and if they

604
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,560
Speaker 1: didn't like again, we didn't. We didn't try to promote

605
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 1: it as that. We just let it kind of be. Um.

606
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:50,120
Speaker 1: And my son also got to be in that photo

607
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:55,200
Speaker 1: shoot as well, so he got to get introduced twenty one. Wow,

608
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 1: he's transgender. No no, no, no, But I I've always

609
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 1: tried to keep him in fluted in the things that

610
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,520
Speaker 1: I do, and I want him to kind of understand

611
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,960
Speaker 1: those worlds because as you know, as kids get older,

612
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 1: their minds start to change. You worry about other outside influences.

613
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 1: So I always want to make sure that he's remaining

614
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:15,240
Speaker 1: as inclusive as possible by kind of involved getting involved

615
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 1: with these people so he understands what they're going through.

616
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:19,320
Speaker 1: A good stuff. He's a good looking kid too, I mean,

617
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 1: the point was we cast the best people for the job,

618
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 1: irrespective of how they identified. We also had a differently abled,

619
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 1: a deaf model who was fantastic deaf as you can't hear. Yeah, deaf,

620
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:32,680
Speaker 1: exactly good. I just want to sure I heard the

621
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 1: right word. Okay, that's awesome too. Yeah, I just inclusive.

622
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 1: It's funny because I just was watching the commercial the

623
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 1: other day at random commercial and it had this big

624
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,000
Speaker 1: girl on. They're dancing her way and she makes me

625
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 1: smile and goes, I just get so happy watching. I

626
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 1: forget what company it is, maybe it's like Target or something,

627
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 1: but I was like, yes, it just made me happy

628
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,440
Speaker 1: just to see more inclusive rather than the super hot,

629
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:58,360
Speaker 1: skinny model whatever, and I stay hot because you know

630
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:00,800
Speaker 1: that it is. I mean, but this other go that

631
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,960
Speaker 1: was the bigger plus. I've been bigger plus my whole life,

632
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So it's not like I'm

633
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 1: sitting there going I loved it, and it just it's

634
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 1: good to see more inclusive of like everyday, real people

635
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:14,600
Speaker 1: of real communities that are really out there in the world,

636
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 1: rather than your stereotypic sex cells. This is what we're

637
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 1: going to advertise with. Right, there's a lot of beauty

638
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 1: in the world, and until you start looking, you're never

639
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 1: going to see it. And being this inclusive, you get

640
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 1: to see all sorts of amazing human beings that you

641
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 1: just never would get to meet anywhere else. Right, And

642
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 1: and it runs parallel to to weed because weed's mainstream

643
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,239
Speaker 1: now or at least, and it feels more mainstream. It's

644
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 1: much cooler now. But there was a time, of course,

645
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 1: when there was all kinds of stigma, and so we

646
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 1: just want to stop cannabis from becoming something that's too

647
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 1: corpora tize, that is unfriendly, that's only for beautiful people,

648
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,720
Speaker 1: you know, or a specific definition of what beautiful might be.

649
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 1: I like it. Daniel Smokes, look at him and Chris Frankino, geez,

650
00:31:56,440 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 1: those guys. So so you guys, actually, you guys are

651
00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 1: pretty much the uh, the ones that design everything. You

652
00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 1: design everything as well, everything packaging, and then you also

653
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 1: work directly with a lot of the dispensaries. Sounds like yes,

654
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 1: so you guys are pretty much manlifting this the majority

655
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:18,040
Speaker 1: of the company. I mean, I mean there's are how

656
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 1: big is the company? Unless so the company is the

657
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 1: copy to say that. But yeah, the company's pretty big,

658
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:25,720
Speaker 1: and I think we just we get to do the

659
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 1: fun parts of the job. You know, there's a lot

660
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 1: of backbreaking work in cannabis man, a lot of it,

661
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 1: and that's why we always try to make sure we

662
00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:36,360
Speaker 1: pay respect to them without our salesman out there not

663
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:40,120
Speaker 1: just being cannabis salesman, but also they embody the brand naturally.

664
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 1: That's that's why they work so well for us. I

665
00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 1: mean they push that flower and people love them and

666
00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 1: then they end up loving the brand. I mean it's

667
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 1: always the guy that puts his first foot through that door, right,

668
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:51,560
Speaker 1: you got to fall in love with that guy before

669
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 1: they even touch anything that you're trying to sell them. So, yeah,

670
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,239
Speaker 1: we do a lot of heavy lifting. But I mean

671
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:02,520
Speaker 1: it's fun. Yeah, this is it's enjoyed. Yeah, it's career.

672
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 1: Not only is it fun, it's just so cool and

673
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 1: like I said, the old school hip hop feel. The

674
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 1: hot box reminds me of beatbox hotoxing, you know what

675
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 1: I mean, but like the hot boxing, hot boxing in

676
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 1: the car, that real style hot box. But like even

677
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:19,320
Speaker 1: though I look at it, though, I feel like it's

678
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 1: so hip hop that I feel like my eyes can

679
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 1: be twist like right now, I looked at it and

680
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,760
Speaker 1: I felt like I seen Beatbox and I wanted to out,

681
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 1: you know, think of the Fat Boys or something, you

682
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:29,640
Speaker 1: know what I mean. And it's just that's something that

683
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:32,080
Speaker 1: I just literally mentally went there looking down right here

684
00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,400
Speaker 1: on this logo. So it's just there's a lot of

685
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 1: things that I find or like wheels exactly. No, you're

686
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:40,640
Speaker 1: you're right, but I mean, it's just it's just a

687
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 1: cool look, a pool feel, and it's just great to

688
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:45,960
Speaker 1: know that you guys are growing at all here. Are

689

Speaker 1: be a multi state operator. We have aspirations definitely, um,

691
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:54,960

740
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:35,759

779
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:39,719
Speaker 1: I was a sophomore at See You Boulder making the

780
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:43,040
Speaker 1: pilgrimage for four twenty to folsom Field. So I don't

781
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 1: think it gets more credible than that. Yeah, oh boy,

782
00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:50,440
Speaker 1: they yeah, they don't do it as much anymore. But

783
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:57,080
Speaker 1: it was good when that bloom that came from a

784
00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 1: very very safe little town in Ohio. IM not very

785
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:04,120
Speaker 1: exposed to many things. Sure, yeah, I was twenty years old. Wow,

786
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 1: twenty years old, it's pretty it's pretty. No, that's actually

787
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 1: it's pretty old. Actually, if it's very old, people like fourteen, twelve,

788
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,839
Speaker 1: twenty five years later, and no, that's that's that's good.

789
00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 1: That's good. Impressure. Hey, at least it's more right setting smart.

790
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 1: I'm not judging it's good because I think that that,

791
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:26,319
Speaker 1: you know, kids should be wait till they're twenty one,

792
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:29,800
Speaker 1: you know, twenty five years old to experiment with anything,

793
00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,360
Speaker 1: because you know, I think you're such at such a

794
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 1: fragile age and you risk what could happen to your

795
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:37,200
Speaker 1: brain at that's well, the brain doesn't stop growing and

796
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:40,200
Speaker 1: development until twenty five, so whatever you do before then

797
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 1: it kind of stap. Look at me, I started smoking

798
00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:43,920

00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 1: my family. My mom came from the flower child world.

805
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:08,560
Speaker 1: Mom smoke. Yeah, so it was all part of just

806
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:11,279
Speaker 1: our family. You know. I smoked at once. I don't

807
00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:12,320
Speaker 1: want to tell you where I got it from, but

808
00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:17,600

811
00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:25,480
Speaker 1: out in the I was in Westminster and I got

812
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:27,200
Speaker 1: a joint and I went out back and hit it.

813
00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 1: In the kind of a whole new world opened up

814
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 1: to me and U, I mean things expanded, you know,

815
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:33,520
Speaker 1: the whole h You get a lot more self confidence

816
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:35,080
Speaker 1: sometimes when you when you smoke weed, and I think

817
00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:37,279
Speaker 1: that really kind of helped me kind of blossom into

818
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,400
Speaker 1: what I'm doing today. That's awesome. Yeah. Question number two

Speaker 1: of the high five, what is your favorite way to

820
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:45,080
Speaker 1: use or smoke cannabis? Perston, It has to be flower.

821
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:49,239
Speaker 1: I mean, we're a flower brand, that's staple. But I

822
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:52,480
Speaker 1: really firmly believe that the holistic value of the plant,

823
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:55,800
Speaker 1: just keeping it very the whole plant is seems to

824
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 1: be more beneficial in many cases. So yeah, I gotta

825
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:00,239
Speaker 1: go with that class. I'm a big fun fan of

829
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:10,680
Speaker 1: want to feel it. I want to break it down,

830
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 1: pack it into a joint, pack it into a bog,

831
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:15,360

849
00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 1: a hazard. It's a workplace, a crazy place. You're right,

850

Speaker 1: two beans, but yeah, you have beans and it's that's

908
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:06,719
Speaker 1: the poster, and that's how they actually put the posters out.

909
00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:09,480
Speaker 1: They had like poster and like almost like a what's

910
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:11,880
Speaker 1: called box what they call him, like a shadow box,

911
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:15,360
Speaker 1: sattle box beans at the bottom. By the way, it

912
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:17,640
Speaker 1: was the most racist movie in the world, but well

913
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:19,960
Speaker 1: there's a few others, but yeah, it's up there. It's

914
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,200
Speaker 1: one of the But funny at the time, you gotta

915
00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:24,239
Speaker 1: look at it and know what it is, and it's

916
00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:25,719
Speaker 1: it's still class. You had to be a part of

917
00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:29,319
Speaker 1: that error to know the you know, it wasn't meant

918
00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:31,439
Speaker 1: to be. Well, movies are for your liking. You don't

919
00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:32,719
Speaker 1: like it, don't go see If you're not a chick

920
00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:34,400
Speaker 1: flick movie, don't go watch chick flick. You don't like

921
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:36,759
Speaker 1: cartoon movies, don't go watch a cartoon one. You want

922
00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:39,480
Speaker 1: to see a racist fucking movie, there is. I think

923
00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:41,360
Speaker 1: mill Brooks did a good job putting out the stupidity

924
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,759
Speaker 1: of racism exactly. It's more stupidity of it. It's not

925
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:48,360
Speaker 1: like hard. Yeah, and that's why he could still do it.

926
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:52,319
Speaker 1: And he's ninety seven years old and he's still beloved. Yeah, dude,

927
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:54,480
Speaker 1: I just see this thing yesterday. He was still moving yeah,

928
00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:56,400
Speaker 1: and then I thought he was up there making fun

929
00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:59,040
Speaker 1: of things and doing things, and you know he did

930
00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:01,160
Speaker 1: it to make fun of it like this, How stupid

931
00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:04,400
Speaker 1: white folks are? I mean, I can agree. Yeah, so

932
00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:08,680
Speaker 1: it's great. Question number five with the high fives, thank you,

933
00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:14,640
Speaker 1: hot talks. Love him so much, Kirsten and Casey soon

934
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:17,719
Speaker 1: to be married. But if you could smoke cannabis with

935
00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:21,799
Speaker 1: anyone dead or alive, who would it be and why?

936
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:28,000
Speaker 1: First my gut was gonna be Uncle Snoop because you know,

937
00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:31,080
Speaker 1: child of the nineties, and but the things about canvas,

938
00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:34,359
Speaker 1: you can you have so many opportunities to actually smoke

939
00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:36,840
Speaker 1: with some of these greats like Whiz Khalifa and Snoop

940
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:39,640
Speaker 1: Dogg and an exhibit. Well wait a second, ladies and gentlemen,

941
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:44,120
Speaker 1: Snoop dog look at it, look at it, look at it.

942
00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:49,520
Speaker 1: Look at her readies like ready, She's like, what smart?

943
00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:52,000
Speaker 1: I had to be more casual about it, like I'm

944
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:59,239
Speaker 1: just looking. She was like, no way, okay, but my

945
00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:02,440
Speaker 1: next time, the next answer was going to be Obama.

946
00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:07,439
Speaker 1: Can you bring out Obama number forty four? Last week?

947
00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:12,719
Speaker 1: Last week? Uncle yeah, only because he's the only president's

948
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 1: ever met that he also Inhaled. Yeah, so it would

949
00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:20,799
Speaker 1: be Snoop and then of course Obama. Yeah, nice, those

950
00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:22,640
Speaker 1: are classic, great ones. I mean, I think he could

951
00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:25,200
Speaker 1: probably get away with getting Snoop on and smoke, you know,

952
00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:28,880
Speaker 1: but probably a bit more difficult, you know, unless you

953
00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:31,000
Speaker 1: guys had my fear what do they call it? The

954
00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:34,799
Speaker 1: who knows the circle? Go to Chicago and see if

955
00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:37,160
Speaker 1: you run into him over there, you might be casey?

956
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,200
Speaker 1: What about you? So I was high when I was

957
00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:40,759
Speaker 1: reading these questions, and the first thing that came to

958
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:42,680
Speaker 1: mind was was a panda. I know it's not a person,

959
00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:46,000
Speaker 1: a panda, and she was asking me on the way

960
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:51,200
Speaker 1: he answer, yeah, hold on, first off, you're the first

961
00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:56,040
Speaker 1: step panda. I like pandas because you know, Panda Express

962
00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:58,400
Speaker 1: and those are nice and lovely and beautiful, and you

963
00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:00,440
Speaker 1: go to San Diego Zoo and you could feel a

964
00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:03,040
Speaker 1: lot of different ways. But I like pandas. What's your reason?

965
00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:05,000
Speaker 1: When when you watch it, they're always they're always rolling

966
00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:06,759
Speaker 1: around and having a good time, you know, they're just

967
00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:09,360
Speaker 1: falling off of things, go belly. Yeah, so they're naturally

968
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:11,120
Speaker 1: kind of high. So I thought it would be kind

969
00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:12,560
Speaker 1: of fun to get high with one and then you know,

970
00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:14,200
Speaker 1: I don't cuddle up with it and maybe play its

971
00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:16,720
Speaker 1: games trying to ward off any creepy vibes or anything.

972
00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:18,320
Speaker 1: But you're a sweet dude. I like that because I

973
00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:20,719
Speaker 1: think Sanda bears are sweet cute. I can't wait to

974
00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:23,480
Speaker 1: watch Cocaine Bear. That really, and then I think the

975
00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:26,640
Speaker 1: same thing of that movie. Watch Sunday. We're gonna watch

976
00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:31,040
Speaker 1: it with night Mabe. I go, oh, yeah, we got

977
00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:33,040
Speaker 1: to check that that movie. It remind me of what

978
00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:34,879
Speaker 1: you're saying, though, Like you know, instead of that would

979
00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:37,439
Speaker 1: be called what we're doing a movie called The High Panda. Yeah,

980
00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:40,680
Speaker 1: gonna be good ideas like that. I will definitely credit.

981
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:42,919
Speaker 1: We need to make a panda a panda hot box,

982
00:48:43,520 --> 00:48:47,280
Speaker 1: a panda hotbox because you're my animal animal backpacks. Pandas

983
00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:49,560
Speaker 1: are one of those cute animals that will kill you,

984
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:53,319
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, they hug around you. I mean when

985
00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:55,400
Speaker 1: you think about them, they always got a tree and

986
00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:57,480
Speaker 1: a stick in name out. It's a baboo stick, but

987
00:48:57,560 --> 00:48:58,840
Speaker 1: it could be a joint, you know what I mean.

988
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,640
Speaker 1: And they're just big, cuddly. Maybe they're getting high on

989
00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:07,680
Speaker 1: Mommy or your brother Pitt. Yeah, yeah, maybe someone could

990
00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:09,080
Speaker 1: just dress up like a panda and get high with

991
00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:15,040
Speaker 1: let's do it. We got another one right here, Daniel, Daniel,

992

1000
00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:37,279
Speaker 1: we pushed so hard on it, is because we wanted

1012
00:50:06,160 --> 00:50:08,480

1013
00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:10,719
Speaker 1: journey with cannabis and recovery and the fact that he

1014
