Speaker 1: it's so great that you guys are here. Tell us

92
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 1: about the brand. What is it exactly that you guys

93
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 1: doing these multiple states? Yeah, so we operate, as you mentioned,

94
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 1: vertically in Oregon and California, and by vertical operation, we

95
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: have cultivation, processing, manufacturing, dispensaries, delivery and brands right in

96
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 1: Oregon and in in California. Most of the asset bates

97
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:22,719
Speaker 1: are in California, but we have distribution brands um in

98
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 1: Oregon and we are expanding our scope and footprint in

99
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 1: Oregon as well. Our our goal really is to be

100
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,719
Speaker 1: the leading West Coast operator of cannabis assets. And you know,

101
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of the Wayne Gretzky quote that

102
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: you skate to where the puck is going to be,

103
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:41,160
Speaker 1: and you California represents about a fifth of the national

104
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,720
Speaker 1: market and at the moment we have a lower level

105
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 1: of competition and a highly fragmented market, so we have

106
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 1: an opportunity to really pull together the leading operation on

107
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 1: the West Coast and that's our goal and we have

108
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: you know, we're gonna lead it out with director consumer

109
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 1: and delivery dispensaries and bring our brands to the people.

110
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 1: Why why an of this? You know? So for me,

111
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 1: I've my career, as you highlighted a little bit, has

112
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,720
Speaker 1: really been an early stage, high growth and sometimes a

113
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,600
Speaker 1: little chaotic industries. And boy, this hits it all disruptive,

114
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: Isn't it funny? How it's so early and there's so

115
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,799
Speaker 1: many things, and not only that, the regulations and rules

116
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,280
Speaker 1: are changing constantly. You may have built something, did something

117
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: thinking you follow it exactly the protocol that the government

118
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 1: has and that they have in place, and then they

119
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 1: freaking flip it on and it only costs millions of

120
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:34,160
Speaker 1: flips you're doing this. And it varies by municipality too, right,

121
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 1: So it's not just the federal government and state governments,

122
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 1: is also municipalities and they're all you know, in flux

123
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 1: at various times. And well, I my point is, I

124
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 1: think that it would be would be helpful if the

125
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 1: federal government actually had any movement um because there's been

126
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,840
Speaker 1: so little um. But at the state and municipality level,

127
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:52,840
Speaker 1: there's certainly a lot of flux. To your point, do

128
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: you believe that the federal government is gonna, you know,

129
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 1: step in and actually get their ship together on this

130
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 1: sub on cannabis or overall there's a lot of different Yes, absolutely.

131
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, the genesis of my coming into

132
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 1: the sector was, you know, it fits the profile of

133
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 1: things that appeal to me. It's really high growth, it's

134
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 1: large sector. Um. The other thing is though that that

135
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: in my mind, the horse out of the Barton. Right,

136
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: we've got thirty seven thirty eight states where there's medical

137
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 1: there's sixteen or eighteen states where there's wreck. And the

138
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 1: federal government is behind this, you know, behind the curve

139
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 1: at this point. And you know, the federal government is

140
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 1: often behind the curve and everything, and and frankly, you know,

141
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 1: it will get addressed. I just don't know when, because

142
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 1: the political landscape being what it is, you would assume

143
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 1: that the Democrats would have been able to pull something

144
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: across the finish line and with control of Congress and

145
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 1: the presidency, and they haven't, so I really can fact

146
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 1: they backpedaled, you know, and that was shocking because I mean,

147
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: I think the we all came into it thinking, Okay,

148
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 1: this is gonna be something that they support it, and

149
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, the and that they almost

150
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 1: made i think the announcements that they were going to

151
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 1: support it, and then it just jerked the chain on everybody,

152
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 1: which isn't you know, uncommon, I guess, but yeah, I mean,

153
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: the pulling the Safe Act out of the Defense Appropriation

154
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 1: Bill was it was a pretty big hit. I mean, frankly,

155
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 1: you know, especially in in the Canadas sector, because there's

156
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 1: so much cash with targets um and you know, it

157
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 1: would have immeasurably improved the operating performance, the safety of

158
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 1: our customers, the safety or employees. UM. So you know,

159
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 1: it's it's a very broad based miss if you will,

160
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 1: in my opinion on the federal government. Where where is

161
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,080
Speaker 1: as you say, this is going to take the government

162
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,559
Speaker 1: sometime your guys biggest imprints in the industry? Is it Oregon?

163
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: Is it California? Where is it that you guys have

164
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 1: the biggest imprint? Well, it's it's California, right I mean,

165
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 1: California is the largest market in the country, frankly the world, UM.

166
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 1: And it's where we have most of the legacy assets. UM.

167
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 1: But we're really looking at both states as you know,

168
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:06,439
Speaker 1: part of the Western US concept that we're approaching. UM.

169
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,679
Speaker 1: So you know, just based on size, California is bigger

170
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 1: right now and where we have more of the legacy assets.

171
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 1: You know. And as I look at so many things

172
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,720
Speaker 1: that you guys have done in your career taking over

173
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 1: these companies and as you mentioned, the government not doing that,

174
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 1: you've been able to do this where you come in

175
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 1: and you strategize, you put together a plan, you're buying

176
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 1: other companies, you're buying getting another license how hard can

177
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 1: you walk us through that? Somewhat in the cliff notes

178
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 1: of what what does that usually take? I mean, my

179
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 1: fucking fathom of like, hey, Oran, let's sit down and

180
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,439
Speaker 1: come up with a plan real quick of buying a

181
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: people's oca, Like you know what I mean, I got

182
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 1: an idea, let's go do this. How do you guys?

183
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 1: I'm assuming there's so much, but what are the cliff

184
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: notes of, like how does it start? And I'm sure

185
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 1: it comes up with an idea and then what do

186
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 1: you go from there? Well, the plan is not actually

187
00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: that hard, right, so as Mr guy who's done well, No,

188
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 1: the plan is not hard. The execution it is very hard. Um,

189
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 1: you know so? Right, So our plan is to become

190
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 1: the leading West Coast cannabis operator. Right, It's that simple,

191
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: al right. Acquisition, it's that straightforward. Getting it to happen

192
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 1: is the tricky part. And integrating companies, different municipalities, different

193
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: license issues is the hard part. You know, We've got people, licenses, assets,

194
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 1: all that need to come together. And given the you know,

195
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,079
Speaker 1: the relatively early stage the industry, things are not as

196
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:34,440
Speaker 1: developed as you would find another other industries, so it

197
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 1: definitely takes a lot more work and execution to get

198
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 1: it over the line. How many people are with the

199
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 1: company right now? We have about congratulations, you know, we

200
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,959
Speaker 1: appreciate that. Like you know, you guys, we're building something,

201
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,679
Speaker 1: you know, and I always say, we're in the middle

202
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 1: of the air flying a plane and we're building the plane,

203
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: you know, and a lot of people don't understand that

204
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: we got off the ground, but we're penciling this plane

205
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 1: together before it crashes, right, And a lot of people

206
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:02,599
Speaker 1: are crashing, you know along the way. A lot of

207
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 1: these jets don't make it, you know, and it's it's unfortunate.

208
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:07,680
Speaker 1: But the way I'm getting on a plane later today

209
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 1: if I've a jet and you know, your your pilot,

210
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 1: you know. But you know, I think it comes to

211
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 1: you know this this you know understanding that you guys

212
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: are in my my book. It's this is dear to

213
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 1: my heart. This industry is something that I've been involved

214
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 1: in my entire life. It's never been illegal in my home.

215
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,199
Speaker 1: It's you know, my dad group cannabis. You know, I

216
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 1: have a legacy in this industry and it was sold

217
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 1: out of my house you know, as a kid. It

218
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:37,720
Speaker 1: just was home for me, right and um, and where

219
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 1: it's going now, it's important to have the proper operators

220
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 1: like yourself step in and go leave the industries that

221
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 1: you're currently dominating and already and go, gosh, we gotta

222
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 1: come help. Because that's what I look at. It's help.

223
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,560
Speaker 1: You're you're you're supporting this freaking industry and your people

224
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,199
Speaker 1: who know how to do. Companies like cats like yourself

225
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 1: or who worked at the Red Bull So Rock, you know,

226
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 1: companies that are fucking who mean, companies that have done

227
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 1: very very well to pull guys into your company, that

228
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,319
Speaker 1: have that experience of going because I would look at it,

229
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,839
Speaker 1: it's the same concept. You do the same thing with alcohol.

230
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,319
Speaker 1: I don't care if you worked for Wonderbread, same kind

231
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 1: of concept. Do this now with cannabis. And that being said,

232
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 1: or in how did you find this company? Did the

233
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 1: company find you? The company found me? But I was

234
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: looking for a way, a reason to get in the industry,

235
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,440
Speaker 1: just because to your point of all these things have

236
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: been done in the alcohol industry before, all these things

237
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,440
Speaker 1: have been executed, but this is almost a new challenge.

238
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:31,679
Speaker 1: And when you look at you know, just seeing how

239
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 1: passionate the people in the industry already were, because that's

240
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:35,679
Speaker 1: what brings all the people together in our companies. It's

241
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 1: not just three, three and fifty people that work for us,

242
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,559
Speaker 1: it'sduring and fifty people that are in the cannabis industry

243
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: because they're excited about the growth they can have for themselves,

244
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 1: They're excited about the passion that brings to the consumers,

245
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 1: and are brought together by this overall excitement that they're

246
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 1: doing something positive. And so just that energy, I feel

247
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,680
Speaker 1: like it is magnetic for people that are interested in

248
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:54,959
Speaker 1: in new and exciting things. And we don't have the

249
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 1: same toolkit. And you talk about what the challenges are

250
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,079
Speaker 1: for M and A or integrations, I guess what. We

251
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,199
Speaker 1: can't use the same paper companies that you know your

252
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,440
Speaker 1: average company uses. We can't have the same checks, we

253
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 1: can't deposit in the same banks. You know you want

254
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: to four oh one K like good Luck, and so

255
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 1: all of these things you want to put together, we

256
00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 1: have to kind of work around the fringes and especially

257
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:13,319
Speaker 1: at this scale, figure out how to operate in that framework. Uh,

258
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 1: and then get that passion that everyone has for the

259
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: industry and the passion the consumers have and say, hey,

260
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: we want to build something that we can all be

261
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,160
Speaker 1: super proud of at this foundational floor we're at right now.

262
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,199
Speaker 1: We're a year, you know, five or ten of a

263
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: hundred before it's it's completely established. I think that's really excited,

264
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: exciting for people that are looking for purpose, which is

265
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 1: what a lot of us are and what brings us

266
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 1: all together here. And I would imagine two as you

267
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 1: guys bring people to your company, they do have that energy,

268
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 1: that feel of like, oh my god, we're doing something different,

269
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,679
Speaker 1: we're helping out. Do you notice that when people come in?

270
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,199
Speaker 1: I mean we feel that here with our show. People

271
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 1: here love it. They love cannabis, they love being a

272
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 1: part of this industry and entertainment and everything like that.

273
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 1: So I'm sure you guys see that excitement for people

274
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 1: that apply for jobs there every day. Absolutely. You know,

275
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: it's it's the it's it's twofold, right. We have a

276
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 1: new industry that's a large, you know, economic environment. But frankly,

277
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 1: a lot of the people, you know, like yourself and

278
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 1: like myself, have been involved in cannabis for a long time,

279
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 1: maybe not in the same manner we're in it today,

280
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 1: and you know, for them and and you know, the

281
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 1: overwhelming number of our employees, the customers and patients that

282
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 1: come in. You know, it's a it's a it's embedded

283
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 1: deeply in their lives and who they are and and

284
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 1: you know, and sometimes you have to take that energy

285
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 1: right and get to you know, shuffle through and find

286
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 1: those that aren't so caught up on it just that

287
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 1: that the plant and the usage of it. And I

288
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 1: say that respectfully because you know, a lot of people

289
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: don't want them to take the wrong way, but they're

290
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 1: just over consuming or or and there's maybe there's no

291
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 1: such thing. But um, you know I'm hearing the simons.

292
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 1: I'm going yet someone just did it. Um. But but

293
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 1: I think that the process is filtering through those people,

294
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 1: right and actually finding real operators that can that can

295
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 1: maintain and hold down the schedule and really operate something

296
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 1: and scale it and and see that vision. Obviously the

297
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 1: two of you have that success and and then so

298
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 1: you have to pin through that because when we were, um,

299
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 1: you know, launching the show, it became something that like,

300
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 1: you know, everyone wants smoke everyone And I'm like no, no, no, no, no, no,

301
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 1: Like we work where do I work? You know, there's

302
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 1: a there's a point where we get to enjoy our cannabis.

303
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 1: But I can't that you just blow smoke and everybody's

304
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 1: face all day. There's no way, you know, perfect case

305
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 1: and point is, you know, in the ten days leading

306
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 1: up to New Year's we had COVID outbreaks, right as

307
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 1: did many businesses in the country. And I will say

308
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 1: our staff worked above and beyond because they were so

309
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 1: committed to keeping the dispensaries open and the deliveries operational.

310
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 1: And you know, I want to give credit to all

311
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 1: of them because they you know, they performed so highly

312
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: to that point. Yeah, I think people will understand how

313
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 1: complicated that job is as a bud tender because for

314
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 1: many people, you're you know, they're coming from all walks

315
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 1: of life to enter into that job. And I spent

316
00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: a lot of time in our retail stores kind of

317
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 1: working directly with the teams. And you'll see people that

318
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 1: have come in that are hey, I'm I'm ten or

319
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 1: fifteen years deep in a different industry and wanted to change,

320
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 1: or hey, I'm coming right out of I'm coming from

321
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 1: in and out or Chick fil A, and and then

322
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 1: patients are walking in and they're saying, hey, I have osteoporosis.

323
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 1: How can you help me or the other And they're

324
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 1: dealing with these really intense scenarios around mental health and

325
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 1: physical health and to equip them for that, so they

326
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 1: get in this thing that they're passionate about and then go, oh, man,

327
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 1: I have this responsibility and it's our job to equip

328
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: them for that. But then they quickly go, oh, look

329
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 1: at the help and the change I'm making in people's lives,

330
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 1: and how rewarding that is in a way that you

331
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 1: just can't seem to get in other industries. I think

332
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 1: that's why bud tending is such an and we call

333
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 1: our budtender's guides actually feel like it is more of

334
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 1: a journey, uh and And I think that that's, you know,

335
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 1: such an interesting concept and I think such a rewarding

336
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 1: position in a completely different way that anyone would think about.

337
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 1: And I think it's really it's worth highlighting that that

338
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: what's that going to look like when it's everywhere across

339
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,720
Speaker 1: the globe? You know, what's that experience? The combination of

340
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 1: you know, therapist, shaman, you know doctor, Like, what what

341
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 1: does that end? Funny? My wife's a physical therapist, and

342
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 1: I wonder if she's gonna be, you know, curious about

343
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 1: wanting to even do more with the industry. And as

344
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: you mentioned the bud Tenders, it throws me into G

358
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:52,359
Speaker 1: and walking into that I mean, and I think you

359
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 1: and I briefly started discussing, you know previously, but I

360
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 1: want to kind of dig it into keep the mind

361
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 1: of somebody, Like when you when you go into a company,

362
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 1: you know you have to clean their their mess in

363
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 1: this industry. I mean I could imagine right that you

364
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:10,639
Speaker 1: guys are diving through you know, their world. Let's just

365
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 1: you know, and let me to some up out there,

366
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,159
Speaker 1: and what does that look like? I mean, you know,

367
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: buying one of these companies or you know, partnering with

368
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,520
Speaker 1: them and then helping them get structured because their infrastructure

369
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:24,439
Speaker 1: probably isn't you know, it's clean or tight from the

370
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 1: fields that you guys are coming from. So, you know,

371
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:27,960
Speaker 1: do you find that's a lot takes a lot of

372
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 1: time for you. Is something easy for your team or

373
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 1: it's never easy, But a lot of it's cultural. I

374
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 1: think what I'm excited about what we've built so far

375
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 1: is it's really all walks of life that work at

376
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:38,199
Speaker 1: this company. And so when the we bring in a

377
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,200
Speaker 1: new organization and they see that and they see people

378
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:41,719
Speaker 1: that are like them, Oh, you know, this person may

379
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 1: not have an interraditional corporate experience. They've been trapping and

380
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 1: they've been able to make it now in transition to that,

381
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:48,639
Speaker 1: or or someone who has come from a corporate background

382
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:50,679
Speaker 1: is now in cannabis and is new knowing that all

383
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,600
Speaker 1: those things are okay and that those people succeed inside

384
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,280
Speaker 1: the organization is uh is something that I think gives

385
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,199
Speaker 1: people some hope that hey, I want to stick through

386
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 1: this transition process. We want to become excited about what

387
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,000
Speaker 1: they're building, and we just try to do it together.

388
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: You know, we just recently did values exercises as like

389
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 1: a combined organization. We brought these companies together, to Frank's point,

390
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 1: from employees of the Tarot Tech too, then umbrella up

391
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 1: to thy you know, fifty people we have and it's like, Okay,

392
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,160
Speaker 1: what do we have in common? What are people excited about?

393
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:16,680
Speaker 1: How do we break that down? But it's a lot

394
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:18,360
Speaker 1: of hard work and it continues every day and it's

395
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,520
Speaker 1: never gonna be easy. But it's also exciting because it

396
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,119
Speaker 1: comes back to what we talked about originally, which is

397
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,679
Speaker 1: passion for the plant, passion for the brands are doing.

398
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 1: You know, it's it just makes it again. I applaud

399
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:35,240
Speaker 1: you guys because it's you know, I I love the entrepreneur.

400
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 1: I'm an entrepreneur myself, right, But there's there's a certain

401
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,360
Speaker 1: level where you know, you only know what you know,

402
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 1: and then you're like, you gotta take mentors, you gotta

403
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:45,640
Speaker 1: take advice or you gotta follow other people's footsteps. Um.

404
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: And then so you know, for me, it's like I

405
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 1: I love to to train myself, to educate myself more

406
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 1: and find those those you know machines and go, okay,

407
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 1: you know, I'm learning, I'm learning. And then you guys

408
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 1: have already had these skills of operations to help these brands.

409
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 1: And I mean some of these brands probably I don't

410
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:04,959
Speaker 1: know how well it was operated. It's probably operated very

411
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:08,120
Speaker 1: well because I've seen it, you know, back when high

412
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: times at the Advance, I mean three years you know this,

413
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,680
Speaker 1: you know the Crova brand, um. But but I don't

414
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,200
Speaker 1: know any other brands you may have picked up or developed.

415
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 1: Are you just developing the majority now yourselves? Is it?

416
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 1: Are you guys looking at other acchoire As far as

417
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 1: brands go, it is, Uh, it's really hard to launch

418
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:26,440
Speaker 1: a brand now, you know, it's just a new brand

419
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,159
Speaker 1: coming into cannabis. It's super supersaturated. And we feel like

420
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,840
Speaker 1: legacy brands have power just because people have have known

421
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 1: that they have the stories and so we're really leaned

422
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:34,919
Speaker 1: into that. And so some of the other brands we

423
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 1: have with a brand called Sticks that originated in Oregon.

424
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 1: It's the top selling pre role in Oregon, has been forever.

425
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 1: We have a smaller kind of presence in California. Um,

426
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 1: but you know, we're really focused on building the brands

427
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 1: that we have internally, and then you know, looking at

428
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 1: opportunities to acquire brands that fit in the portfolio, but

429
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,399
Speaker 1: especially those legacy ones where yeah, if we have a

430
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:52,560
Speaker 1: brand with a tenure history, no matter how up and

431
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,119
Speaker 1: down it might have been, if consumers around the country

432
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 1: know it, you know all that it's just a little

433
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,040
Speaker 1: bit of alpha to begin to build culture around, to

434
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,720
Speaker 1: begin to build community around, and that people are gonna

435
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 1: know and all that's gonna resonate, especially the general lore

436
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 1: of California. I just you know, say it again in

437
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 1: ten years, how many of the top ten brands in

438
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 1: cannabis that are global are gonna be from California. I'd

439
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:14,639
Speaker 1: bet on nine of those ten should be all of them?

440
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:16,879
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, if not. And then I also see, is

441
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,159
Speaker 1: Cavana one of your guys as well? Yeah, that's a

442
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 1: really high end brand in Oregon, just a strictly pre

443
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 1: roll brand, but kind of one of the smaller ones.

444
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 1: So those are the three owned brands that we have

445
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 1: and then we distribute because we have trucks on the

446
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: road out of multiple facilities. We sell into four hundred

447
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:32,919
Speaker 1: plus dispensaries. So we have brands like Habit another legacy

448
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:36,119
Speaker 1: brand from from California. We have have flower shop we

449
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 1: bring called Life that's a sustainable by drinks. They're they're exceptional.

450
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 1: I think my wife and I try to go through

451
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:45,679
Speaker 1: about one a weekend. You know, they're they're excellent, one

452
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 1: of them. It really is. Everybody drink there, you know,

453
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 1: they just drink it down. They're veterans. And this being said,

454
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,439
Speaker 1: you know, you guys have so many different types of

455
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 1: products out there, the flowers, the pre roles, you have

456
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:01,919
Speaker 1: to have conscient trade to everything else, hot sauces. What

457
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 1: is the number one seller for you guys? It's flower

458
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:07,400
Speaker 1: and flowers still the biggest market. It's the bigger market.

459
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 1: It still is in every dispensary as well. If you

460
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 1: go nationwide, you look at it and it's still flower.

461
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:14,159
Speaker 1: So how big of a difference is it. Is it

462
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,720
Speaker 1: fifty fifty? I mean, is it like seventy? What's the

463
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 1: ratio compared to the product mix? You know, inside our

464
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,159
Speaker 1: distribution and then inside of our stores. Besides People's is

465
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 1: a little less. Like I mentioned, they have a little

466
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:27,399
Speaker 1: more vape and things than that others, and the problem

467
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: mix varies piece to piece, but Flower is definitely the

468
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,119
Speaker 1: biggest part and that's the one that we're most excited

469
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:32,639
Speaker 1: about because I was, we have people inside that are

470
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:34,440
Speaker 1: passionate about People are gonna say, hey, you know what,

471
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 1: jealousy crosses are really hot right now. We should be like,

472
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,199
Speaker 1: we should be emphasizing that. Why aren't we you know,

473
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:39,880
Speaker 1: old school strains are coming back, Why aren't we growing

474
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 1: more hazes? We people to have opinions, and uh and

475
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 1: bud tenders have opinions. We talked to so many customers

476
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 1: every day in the stores that we feel we can

477
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 1: really keep the finger on the pulse. So where Flower

478
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:49,840
Speaker 1: is going and it just has that again back to

479
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 1: the roots conversation. It just has that feel to it

480
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:54,639
Speaker 1: that I think it's both nostalgic and exciting to almost

481
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 1: everyone that comes across it. As you mentioned the butt

482
00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,439
Speaker 1: tenders and things like this, I'm curious, how do you

483
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,200
Speaker 1: guys get your pulse on that. Is there a meeting

484
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 1: you guys have once a week, once a month to

485
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,440
Speaker 1: really get your because I feel like you guys are

486
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 1: doing something to keep your hand on the pulse. How

487
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 1: does that company like your guys do that. Luckily, our

488
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,639
Speaker 1: office is right above one of our dispensaries, and so

489
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:14,400
Speaker 1: and just so being down in there all the time,

490
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:16,760
Speaker 1: and uh, I love is just being being present, and

491
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 1: so I'm in the stores constantly. Uh and just you

492
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 1: know by virtue of let's hold our meetings there, let's

493
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 1: do the walk through there, let's do it in person,

494
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,679
Speaker 1: because otherwise I feel like there is a problem with

495
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 1: a lot of more corporate cannabis where they're not and

496
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 1: I think there's just a critical aspect of that to

497
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 1: seeing who it is. But it really came down just

498
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 1: physical location. When you're above the store every day, I

499
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 1: guess what you're you're inside of it. Yeah, Well, people's

500
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,440
Speaker 1: brain really easy. Well, I mean listen, you know it's

501
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: like when we went virtual, a lot of people wanted

502
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 1: to stay home, you know, and you're like, no, you

503
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:46,239
Speaker 1: get your back here, you know, because you build a family, right,

504
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 1: you build you know, you have to have the village.

505
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 1: You build the village, right, you have this team, and

506
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:52,880
Speaker 1: so you know, I think it's one of those you know,

507
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,919
Speaker 1: the more you engage with, you know, everybody that you

508
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:57,879
Speaker 1: work with, the more they respect you, the more they

509
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:00,480
Speaker 1: want to follow you. Because again, if you give write

510
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 1: like we come in here, we'll clean the bathrooms. I uh,

511
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 1: you know, I literally did I mean literally you know,

512
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 1: And it's like it's part of showing other people that

513
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:10,320
Speaker 1: you know better than any of us, were no better

514
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:12,199
Speaker 1: than you. Let's just keep growing and how can we

515
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,080
Speaker 1: you know? And then you find stars, Doro that you know,

516
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 1: that's how you find your stars. If you're not there,

517
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:18,120
Speaker 1: how do you know who's you know, you're just hearing

518
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 1: from this guy, this one person. You'll find the stars

519
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 1: that will help you deliver. And that's that's how you

520
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:27,440
Speaker 1: create great businesses. So I'm actually excited to, um, you know,

521
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 1: kind of follow your guys career and watching and look

522
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:31,959
Speaker 1: at it's like an old fashioned roll up. You know.

523
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,919
Speaker 1: You guys are just you know, and you guys are

524
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 1: putting them together, and I'm excited to see what it

525
00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:41,560
Speaker 1: does them. What's the trader symbol unrv U n r

526
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,200
Speaker 1: V and what's the trading for it? At the time?

527
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:47,639
Speaker 1: About time to jump in now, Frank, I'm curious you

528
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 1: married I am. So as you jump towards the candida,

529
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 1: hold on, what are you doing? No, I'm gonna go

530
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 1: towards the direction you're weirdos come on being married, because

531
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 1: I'm thinking to myself, point if I would, is you know,

532
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,959
Speaker 1: an executive doing what you've done on your level of

533
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 1: what you've done. What did your wife say when you're like, babe,

534
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 1: I want to get into this cannabis space, this wheat thing.

535
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:14,679
Speaker 1: And how did that conversation go and how was the feedback? So? Um,

536
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: she married an entrepreneur. This may have been a little

537
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:23,560
Speaker 1: more unique than many of the ventures I've entertained, but

538
00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 1: she's certainly familiar with that. And I will say she

539
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 1: was not a user. But she went through a really

540
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:33,439
Speaker 1: stressful work period about two years ago and wasn't sleeping,

541
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,880
Speaker 1: and it's like, you know, we got something for that. Um.

542
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,919
Speaker 1: So I brought a tin home and convinced her to

543
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:42,400
Speaker 1: try it, and I think it's changed her life. Wow,

544
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 1: funny how it loosens people up like that. My wife

545
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,040
Speaker 1: has never she's my wife has never smoked a joint,

546
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 1: ever done a drug in her life. She drinks, she's

547
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:53,800
Speaker 1: a drunk, but other than that, she's probably drunk right

548
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:56,200
Speaker 1: now at home watching the kids. You want to edit that.

549
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 1: I've always yeah, she knows me, I'm an idiot. And

550
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:04,359
Speaker 1: that being said, um, she's uh never tried a drug

551
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 1: in her life, but when she was having a tough

552
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:10,440
Speaker 1: time sleeping, she got ahold of some tinsters with CBD

553
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: in it and this and that and going, oh my god,

554
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 1: it's changed her life as well. My point is my

555
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 1: wife was very similar to that same aspect, and how

556
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:19,639
Speaker 1: a lot of these quote unquote use the term you

557
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 1: want to soccer mom, mom, dad. Any adult that's never

558
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 1: tried it and looks at it like taboo, try it

559
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 1: for medical purposes. And that's my whole thing about cannabis.

560
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 1: I'm strictly on the medicine aspect of it because I

561
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:34,680
Speaker 1: look at it strictly as medicine, right. I use it

562
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,680
Speaker 1: at night when I'm in pain. I don't just casually

563
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,400
Speaker 1: smoke to be a Thursday afternoon let's smoke and joint

564
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,679
Speaker 1: it's four twenty. No, that's not my style. But if

565
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:45,399
Speaker 1: it's at night, my arthritis is kicking in my ankles, hurting,

566
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,159
Speaker 1: same thing. I can't sleep at night. Use something with

567
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 1: a little more t seeing it and it helps his medicine.

568
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,360
Speaker 1: So it's great to hear that your wife gets introduced.

569
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,320
Speaker 1: It's almost like more anecdotal evidence for you with your company.

570
00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 1: Oh absolutely, I mean frankly, I even introduced my father

571
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 1: in law to it. Who is you know, eighty at

572
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:04,639
Speaker 1: the time. Uh, never ever consumed Canada's and he was

573
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,120
Speaker 1: having trouble sleeping as well. And you know, our son, goodnight,

574
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:09,840
Speaker 1: our son, our son drew us. The dispense for it

575
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:11,920
Speaker 1: was the night after Thanksgiving me, you know, left overs

576
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:13,480
Speaker 1: and wine and stuff, and you know, so our son

577
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 1: draw us. He was nineteen at the time, so he

578
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:18,360
Speaker 1: couldn't go in um. But he's a great uber driver.

579
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,199
Speaker 1: He was a great uber driver. And m bought my

580
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,480
Speaker 1: father in law canvas for the first time, and uh,

581
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 1: you know, it's it was game changing for him as well.

582
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 1: You know, I feel awesome, know it's it's it's beautiful

583
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,159
Speaker 1: because there's there's such a big learning curve coming for

584
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 1: for those that are willing to expand their vision or

585
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 1: their mind, because a lot of them won't expand because

586
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 1: they've just trained, you know, for so many years that

587
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:40,879
Speaker 1: it's a drug, right, Like I just having a conversation

588
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,639
Speaker 1: with you know, a guy, and he's just like, you know,

589
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,159
Speaker 1: and I was like, I don't really smoke. I was

590
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:46,880
Speaker 1: telling him, I don't smoke that much. You know, it's

591
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,680
Speaker 1: just not my thing. I used to smoke every day

592
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 1: day I was wrapping. I loved it, you know, blunts

593
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,200
Speaker 1: this that I did it all. But there's a point

594
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 1: where I was like, okay, I want to separate myself

595
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,399
Speaker 1: from it. And then now I look at this and go,

596
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:04,280
Speaker 1: you know that soccer mom that's never done it, that

597
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,120
Speaker 1: grandma that that's using it for a better pain medicine

598
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:10,200
Speaker 1: because she doesn't realize that, you know, I can take

599
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 1: edible instead of a Viking and or oxycloudown and and

600
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:17,399
Speaker 1: and and not have this withdrawal or this sick feeling

601
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:21,760
Speaker 1: or addiction. And they look at this plant and you know,

602
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:25,239
Speaker 1: realize that it's it's more natural, it digests better, it

603
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:29,400
Speaker 1: gives you more. You know, it's it's the edges for

604
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: us our age demographic. We know, cats up the bag,

605
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,919
Speaker 1: but but still training the elder folks, you know, and

606
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 1: things like that is so priceless because we are from

607
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:42,640
Speaker 1: a compassionate industry and it's so important to educate you know.

608
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,880
Speaker 1: So I love that. I think of the vision for

609
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:49,040
Speaker 1: the future to where I've been using canvas lot for

610
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 1: sports recovery, I've been using like the roll on bombs

611
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 1: and things like that and the But if you look

612
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 1: at just the size of the industry, just the wellness

613
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 1: industry alone, but that's going to be by itself, the

614
00:28:57,280 --> 00:29:01,240
Speaker 1: pharmaceutical replacement industry to replace, you know, and it's just

615
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:03,880
Speaker 1: that it's just the medical side. Then the actual recreational

616
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 1: Then look at what are the drinks they're gonna sell

617
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 1: in whole Foods, some combination THC delta, a h CBD.

618
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:10,480
Speaker 1: You know, what are the sts be offered in restaurants

619
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 1: as the THHC course And like everything you're describing, it's

620
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 1: gonna get his bigger and bigger and bigger. So everything

621
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:19,960
Speaker 1: And and I love that you just said that because

622
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,360
Speaker 1: I have arguments with people all the time and they're like,

623
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 1: you know, it's never gonna be rolled out in this.

624
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 1: I'm like, dude, Costco is gonna sell it. Bro Like,

625
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 1: it's gonna be in every just every smoke shop, every

626
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 1: It might be a topical, it might be a drink,

627
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:34,720
Speaker 1: it might be a dessert, but it's going to be everywhere.

628
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 1: It's in capsules and supplements, just like you have two

629
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 1: mushrooms or any number of these things you see now

630
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,000
Speaker 1: and anything you can get. It's funny or because you

631
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,080
Speaker 1: said from the athletics side, right, and you look at

632
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 1: from the physical aspect. I've had two hip surgeries. I

633
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 1: gotta have an ankle surgery coming up. I was a

634
00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 1: former athlete. I use it for athletic purposes. Then I

635
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,880
Speaker 1: talked and we talked about Mike Tyson coming out with

636
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:55,040
Speaker 1: this new brand that he did, and I started thinking,

637
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 1: going when a guy like Mike Tyson, who was the

638
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 1: world heavyweight champion at one point, and then we see

639
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:02,960
Speaker 1: other athletes who were talking about who are these big

640
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,600
Speaker 1: other ones that are gonna come out and endorse this

641
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:08,520
Speaker 1: type of product, right and full on cannabis from the

642
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 1: sports athletes side, I like, or even from the other side,

643
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 1: because I was saying, what if the Lebron James goes finally, guys,

644
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:17,040
Speaker 1: you know what this pain and I've cotton first win

645
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:20,280
Speaker 1: that Tiger Woods was using CBD to help with his back.

646
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 1: But he's not gonna come out of the green closet

647
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,120
Speaker 1: that we like to call it on our show of

648
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:26,560
Speaker 1: Your in the Green Closet because you don't want Rolex

649
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 1: to find out that you're using fucking cannabis, because then

650
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 1: your sponsor may go away because it's federally illegal. But

651
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 1: to the point of what you said there or and

652
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 1: as you use it for that, and so do I

653
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,400
Speaker 1: and so many others, and so many other athletes do.

654
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 1: I can't even imagine how many professional athletes are using

655
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 1: this on a daily basis with a strong regiment that

656
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 1: quote unquote can't won't do it because of the reputation

657
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: that the taboo it carries. Yeah, it's all going away

658
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:54,880
Speaker 1: and and and if you don't believe that, I mean,

659
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 1: and like I said, I argue with people on the show.

660
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 1: They're just like, it'll never happen, it will never have

661
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 1: more market. I'm like, yeah, the po Brothers are you know,

662
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 1: that's where they're not here. We're gonna argue with yeah. No.

663
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 1: But but but the thought process behind it is is

664
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 1: it's like, in order for it to the federal government

665
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,360
Speaker 1: to get involved, it has to scale and it has

666
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:16,920
Speaker 1: to be put in the hands of people that can

667
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:18,680
Speaker 1: really understand how to get it to the rest of

668
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 1: the country. Because I'll be honest, most there's very few operators,

669
00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 1: you know, that can really distribute it to the rest

670
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,200
Speaker 1: of the country and and actually be successful. Right you

671
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 1: believe that, oh yeah, we can handle it. No, you

672
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 1: don't have the infrastructure, you don't understand the routes, you

673
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 1: don't understand how this thing is gonna roll out, and

674
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:37,760
Speaker 1: and so their minds are just like every a lot

675
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 1: of people will try, but there's only a few people

676
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 1: that are going to really be able to deliver that,

677
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,960
Speaker 1: you know, I think they're already in place. Sorry, the

678
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:47,400
Speaker 1: rest of the United States compared to California, even just

679
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:48,960
Speaker 1: the product mix, Like we can go to the store

680
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 1: and you can get nano multified product that it hits

681
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 1: you in fifteen minutes. You can get topicals with you know,

682
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 1: a hundred variations. With the Delta eight products, the high

683
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 1: potency side, there's so many, it's so refined, whereas in

684
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 1: a lot of these places you're still just buying weed

685
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:02,840
Speaker 1: whatever you got, like we're taking it. And so to

686
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:04,480
Speaker 1: think of how much that's gonna be developed on the

687
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:05,920
Speaker 1: West Coast, what that looks like for the rest of

688
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 1: the world, and what that experience is going to bring

689
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 1: to whatever organizations that we all end up joining in

690
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:12,320
Speaker 1: an X amount of years. Uh, it's you know, it's

691
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 1: gonna be really exciting. That's all happening right here around

692
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 1: where we're sitting, and it's happening all over the country

756
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:33,799
Speaker 1: So I didn't want to smoke, and I tried other

757
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:38,439
Speaker 1: recreational drugs instead because that made you faster. Yeah, I didn't.

758

761
00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:51,279
Speaker 1: gave it a good freshman year try and then that's

762
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 1: good or what about you? So yeah, my first I

763
00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 1: was in eighth grade. I grew up in Hawaii, so

764
00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:58,680
Speaker 1: it's it's ubiquitous. It's hard, it's hard to get away

765
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:00,319
Speaker 1: from it. And so this was just the kids that

766
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,960
Speaker 1: I hung out with. It was it was just around

767
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:05,720
Speaker 1: and you know we're eighth grade at school, at church,

768
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:09,200
Speaker 1: after after school at the beach. Yeah, it's just very

769
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,640
Speaker 1: very Hawaii as well, Mr Hawaii. Yeah, not not well,

770
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:14,800
Speaker 1: you know, I just never had quite had the balance

771
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:16,839
Speaker 1: for it. But now the whole nine surf skate, all

772
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:19,360
Speaker 1: the all the things that even eventually to when I

773
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 1: tried to when I'm older significantly hurting myself and cannabis again,

774
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 1: it's great, a good time, just to make you guys

775
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:25,239
Speaker 1: feel better. I was six years old when I first

776
00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:28,080
Speaker 1: started smoking cannabis with a brother that was sixteen, So

777
00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,120
Speaker 1: you know, I got a lot of people beat that

778
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:32,440
Speaker 1: being said, it's question number two, question number two of

779
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,680
Speaker 1: the High five. What is your favorite way to use cannabis?

780
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:40,279
Speaker 1: So I'm I'm an edible guy, So nighttime edible kind

781
00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:44,640
Speaker 1: is there? It's about to be Corolla. We're just we're

00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:50,200
Speaker 1: just rolling out of Corolla Edible So Corova gummies. Nice. Yeah,

787
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 1: hunderbilligram one now, but you know it's not for the

788
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 1: finn of heart. You know, it's a single hunder Pillgramy.

789
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 1: The wrong person gets that little gummy going. Most of

790
00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:10,759
Speaker 1: these are just really micro doose. So I'm gonna try this.

791
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:14,440
Speaker 1: And we got a lot of those stories more than

792
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 1: more than oh. I could only imagine just drool coming down.

793
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:19,400
Speaker 1: What about you or uh? You know, I really like

794
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:23,000
Speaker 1: the seven ten lab rosin pods. Uh for vape I'm

795
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 1: a huge fan of. But I think my favorite to

796
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,400
Speaker 1: consumers turned into drinks. Um just yeah, I think that

797
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,400
Speaker 1: the liquid it's just great being able to mix it

798
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,400
Speaker 1: with it. I like there's a pure beauty has a

799
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:34,960
Speaker 1: like a live resident Hunter millgram shot that I poured

800
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 1: a drink. So I love that too. It's funny you

801
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:38,879
Speaker 1: say seven ten Labs because it comes in my head.

802
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,680
Speaker 1: I ironically had my car at Infinity and they hit

808
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:54,359
Speaker 1: Day mentioned seven ten labs that the guys in the back,

809
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:57,240
Speaker 1: So everyone working on cars is a seven ten lab smoker,

810
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:00,640
Speaker 1: you know, And and you known't live Rosin when you're

811
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:02,480
Speaker 1: talking about that, you know, it's just a flavor, right,

812
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,360
Speaker 1: It's it's just so much it's it's just a so

813
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:07,040
Speaker 1: much cleaner way to It's just it's just so turpy,

814
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:08,560
Speaker 1: and so the experience you have, it's just great. You

815
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:10,920
Speaker 1: feel great automatically. So I couldn't be a bigger fan

816
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,120
Speaker 1: of of what they're doing. Question number three of the

817
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 1: high five with the unrivaled brand. Craziest place you ever

818
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:22,200
Speaker 1: used are smoked cannabis. Starting with you, Frank Um. So

819
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:28,520
Speaker 1: probably Amtrak trains between Boston and southern Connecticut where my

820
00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 1: family was living. That was a pretty regular route I

821
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 1: was on. And in those days, actually the bathrooms were

822
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,839
Speaker 1: down right into the tracks. So go into the bathrooms,

823
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:42,920
Speaker 1: open the toilet, and exhausted into the you're actually sing

824
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,279
Speaker 1: to join them, Yeah on the train, Yeah, pinch. I

825
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,120
Speaker 1: actually had a pinch hitder in those days. Oh the

826
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 1: little like just a little sneak of toke, a little

827
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:52,600
Speaker 1: baseball bat or whatever. Those are always so cool. Whatever

828
00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 1: happened to those little using open it's all those little

829
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,240
Speaker 1: rinky deek things we used to use it. They're still around.

830
00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,640
Speaker 1: They're still around it. It's just a little more open,

831
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:03,440
Speaker 1: some little class anymore. What about you or you know,

832
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:05,720
Speaker 1: I don't have any exciting stories. I think I've consumed

833
00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:06,880
Speaker 1: all the time, but I have nothing where I'm like,

834
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:08,400
Speaker 1: you know, I was, you know, the high rise or

835
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 1: anything like that. There's gotta be somewhere though, because like

836
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:12,479
Speaker 1: like on the train, it still could be great, because

837
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:14,880
Speaker 1: you can get arrested. There's gotta be somewhere where you

838
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 1: could have been arrested. It's normal circumstances, like in houses,

839
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:20,440
Speaker 1: at parties, maybe like at a concert is probably the strangest.

840
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:23,200
Speaker 1: But now keep it pretty simple. How about in front

841
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:26,480
Speaker 1: of an airport so you can get in trouble into

842
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:29,000
Speaker 1: the airport, you know, going into the airport. I'm sure

843
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:30,840
Speaker 1: you took a toke before you went to the airplane,

844
00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:33,040
Speaker 1: where you can get busted on federal ground like that.

845
00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:34,960
Speaker 1: So my point is there's places that are crazy that

846
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:37,600
Speaker 1: you may think are so normal because you're such you know,

847
00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:39,680
Speaker 1: this is what do you mean? No, big deal. That's fair.

848
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:41,719
Speaker 1: I'm I'm trying trying to think of it. I'm sorry.

849
00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 1: I don't want to be just got the you know,

850
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 1: well there it is, you're living it is. It is

851
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 1: because somewhere He's like, I smoke it everywhere, it doesn't matter.

852
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 1: And I was like, what's the number four of the

853
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 1: high five. What does your go to munchie after you

854
00:39:55,200 --> 00:40:01,440
Speaker 1: get high? Cook milk? Yeah, chocolate chip? Oh? Yes, I

855
00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:05,919
Speaker 1: love chips ahoy or like something that was really made. Yeah,

856
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 1: I love it, especially chips. Always not that bad. I

857
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:12,319
Speaker 1: mean for you know, if you dunk it long enough

858
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:14,880
Speaker 1: like a hold, I like to put him under my

859
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:16,480
Speaker 1: leg right between the crease to warm them up a

860
00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:21,440
Speaker 1: little bit. Then dunk the oil come my back of

861
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:23,759
Speaker 1: my leg and get Thank god, I shave a little

862
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:25,840
Speaker 1: bit so it makes it good. What about your you

863
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:28,800
Speaker 1: know it's gonna be fresh fruit, fresh blueberries, fresh pineapple.

864
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:30,440
Speaker 1: There's something about it like when you're high, just that

865
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 1: extra flavor. It's like from healthy just badest can be

866
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:39,320
Speaker 1: because cookies. I love Question number five of the High

867
00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:42,160
Speaker 1: five with unrivaled brands. If you could smoke cannabis with

868
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:46,359
Speaker 1: anyone dead or alive, who would it be Frank And

869
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:54,759
Speaker 1: why wow, um, whoever the biggest abolitionist was, because it

870
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:58,040
Speaker 1: would be my intent to confer them? Right? Really? Yeah?

871
00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:00,120
Speaker 1: And how how would you go about something like that?

872
00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 1: What do you think you're I mean, you got your

873
00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 1: wife to to do it, which is probably the hardest

874
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:06,440
Speaker 1: one if you think about it, because those are the

875
00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:08,880
Speaker 1: ones closest to us that are damn hard, right, I

876
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 1: mean realistically right, like look at our significant others or

877
00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 1: that does anybody listening to your significant other listen to you?

878
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:21,279
Speaker 1: Exactly my point? Actually, here we go Congress, Congress, no

879
00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:24,880
Speaker 1: one Congress to smoke. You know, it's funny. We just

880
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,919
Speaker 1: had somebody saying, you know, they're president any president, because

881
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:31,520
Speaker 1: once the president smokes, it's on once we know, I mean,

882
00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:34,640
Speaker 1: Clinton admitted to it, and certainly a couple of other presidents.

883
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:38,880
Speaker 1: Obama didn't. Obama never really came out though like he

884
00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:41,080
Speaker 1: kind of did did it. It's never been like a

885
00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:45,600
Speaker 1: solid like Clinton did. Clinton, there's a sucking stick in

886
00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:48,160
Speaker 1: my head. And what I remember Clinton saying, like I

887
00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:50,480
Speaker 1: wish Obama was that you know, man, I hit that ship,

888
00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:53,680
Speaker 1: but just say something to make it give me the stamp,

889
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 1: like the stock price would have went up, you know,

890
00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:58,960
Speaker 1: in that day that Obama would have been through the roof. Yeah,

891
00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:01,279
Speaker 1: that's a good one thing anybody in Congress would be nice.

892
00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:02,719
Speaker 1: I'd love to see it because then we can see

893
00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:04,760
Speaker 1: some more initiatives happening to make this ship go legal.

894
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 1: What about you think the Congress is a great answer.

895
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,040
Speaker 1: I was gonna say that maybe, like Nietzsche or and

896
00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:11,279
Speaker 1: Rand all right, i'd like to you probably tell from

897
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,319
Speaker 1: these conversations, I like to go deep. Let' let's talk

898
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:15,360
Speaker 1: about what was possible, what might happen the state of

899
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:17,719
Speaker 1: the human consciousness. So then we go with on with

900
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:20,839
Speaker 1: one of them. That's interesting, I mean, because you're going

901
00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:22,520
Speaker 1: to get high and you just start thinking, let's go

902
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:24,000
Speaker 1: I want to hear what they're thinking. That they didn't

903
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:27,319
Speaker 1: make it on the paper, you know, because there's so

904
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:29,319
Speaker 1: many interesting things that we can see and hear from

905
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:31,960
Speaker 1: that's and that being said, interesting things and that we

906
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:34,440
Speaker 1: could hear. Come, what can we expect to see in

907
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:36,720
Speaker 1: the future. You guys have already bought some big companies.

908
00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:38,680
Speaker 1: You guys bought one of the biggest dispensaries in order.

909
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:42,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you guys are doing big things with your company.

910
00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:44,239
Speaker 1: What can we see and what can we expect from
