You 34 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 1: guys remember her. She was like Sports Illustrated and like 35 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: eighty years old, now, aren't you? I mean she was. 36 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 1: She's not that whole dog. I mean she's you know, 37 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 1: she still looks good. Bottom line is a She launched 38 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 1: her long awaited line of CBD and FUSE wellness products. 39 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 1: Ireland says she hopes to this line it's has a 40 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: bunch of stuff with people to help with the COVID 41 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 1: nineteen pandemic. It's some self needed self care, which is beautiful. 42 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 1: Here's a quote from her. Our products, while they're beauty products, 43 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: we really look at them as healthcare. Ireland told the article. 44 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 1: In the time of COVID what people are calling beauty, 45 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 1: we consider this really to be personal care. The initial 46 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,839 Speaker 1: launch of this is supposed to be focused already. Now 47 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 1: it's out, actually has body butters, serums, cleansers and creams. 48 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 1: I just like this, as you know, low amount of 49 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 1: starting up up to that's a good amount of you know, 50 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 1: a private right there. But what I really like about 51 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 1: her and I don't know if you guys remember her, 52 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: but I definitely remember her as a kid. As I say, 53 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: the eighties, I was a kid, then nineties, I graduated 54 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: high school. Craig, you're probably already at U c l A. 55 00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 1: And she was actually, um, I'm older than her. Oh yeah, exactly, 56 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: I knew you were. Like now you feel like an asshole, 57 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 1: right going. Oh she ain't. Oh wait, she's younger than me. 58 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, there I go, Craig, you old man foot 59 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 1: in the mouth again. By two years, and not only that, 60 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 1: though you see the current pictures, ever, she still looks wonderful, 61 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,799 Speaker 1: unlike you look like shit. She still looks so great, 62 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. It's oh, sorry, I'm sensitive, Joe. 63 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna come across this camera and smack you in 64 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:30,559 Speaker 1: the mouth. But when I was celebrity jumping on the bandwagon, 65 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 1: it's just, you know, I like this touch right here. 66 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: CBD is something that we've been interested in for years, 67 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: Ireland said. And I was always the kind of surprised 68 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: by the controversy around CBD. Our products don't contain T 69 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: h C. And it's like we give our children grapes 70 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: but not wine. I love that a little analogy right 71 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 1: there that she used, that's an analogy. I thought that 72 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: was a great analogy buyer. So when I really got 73 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: to that bottom of the story I've seen that, I go, 74 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: you know what, not only am I a fan because 75 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: she was super hot, and I'm sure I went in 76 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: the shower of a couple of images. Yeah I don't 77 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: want that thought joke of me and the show. But 78 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: as I look blue and please do as cleaning up, 79 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 1: I mean, she was quote unquote like like in the 80 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:24,359 Speaker 1: title a supermodel to grace the covers of Sports Illustrated 81 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: thirteen times. She kept herself up. She knows about health. 82 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: She's been to Epstein's Island. Oh yeah, not funny. I 83 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,160 Speaker 1: don't know. It's horrible as an adult, hopefully as an 84 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: adults anyhow. Who that's who's going green. She's making some 85 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: good money doing some good things. And I have a 86 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 1: good feeling about this product. Like you heard me talk 87 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 1: about the David Beckham product. When big stars like this 88 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: get behind the product, I believe they're going to have 89 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 1: the big pushing the good products behind them. So that's 90 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,919 Speaker 1: a good fight, right, That's a good argument because I 91 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: think that you know, we we were talking about it 92 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 1: the other night, it with some folks and we're sitting 93 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,799 Speaker 1: there going, you know, I think a lot of these, 94 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 1: you know, celebrity driven products are a lot of fast 95 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 1: food sometimes and they get to a point where it's 96 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 1: like overwhelming and you're not really sure it's a grab bag. 97 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: You're not really sure if you're gonna get really equality 98 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,840 Speaker 1: or if it's gonna be really trashed. And unfortunately, the 99 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 1: reason I say that is because a lot of these 100 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 1: celebrity driven products have failed along the way. One of 101 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 1: them is two things. One is because you're dealing with 102 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,040 Speaker 1: somebody that's a celebrity, they're they're they're not operating the business, 103 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: they're not running it, and so they're just using their face, 104 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: which is great. But on the other hand, the product 105 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: that you're getting isn't normally probably tested by them. It's 106 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 1: not you know, it's not rolled through properly, so you 107 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,119 Speaker 1: don't know what you're gonna get. It's just hard because, 108 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 1: as you say, some people just say yes, use my 109 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 1: name and likeness and this is a good product. You 110 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 1: like it. I like it, but I didn't spend my 111 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: time to really be my life that way, like I 112 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,600 Speaker 1: said David Beckham and I don't know you guys weren't 113 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: on the show the other day, but David Beckham's company 114 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: is gonna be on the London Stock Exchange. London is 115 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: gonna start, uh having cannabis on the stock exchange over there, 116 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: so and it just supported my thought and theory on 117 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: going with a company like that, same concept and my 118 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:13,599 Speaker 1: thought and theory on Kathy Ireland where supermodel works out 119 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 1: for her whole entire life, staying healthy, lived the life 120 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna roll the dice that she's really hands on 121 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: on her company. Well so she's probably maybe hands on 122 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 1: by some blue but I mean, yeah, no, I think 123 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 1: that the thought is is that is she really a 124 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: cannabis you know, Connois sewer. Is she really somebody that 125 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: has the understanding of what this plant does, how it 126 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: affects our body, how it affects the endocannabinoid system? Is 127 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,720 Speaker 1: it really something? And I'm not saying that she's not 128 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 1: by any means. I'm just saying, there's so many people 129 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:46,840 Speaker 1: it's like rolling the freaking dice, and and it's kind 130 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: of it's kind of a shame because it's like where 131 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: were all these people during the real fight, right and 132 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: and and and there's a lot of them that have 133 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 1: been there. Don't keep it wrong. You know, you've got 134 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 1: Seth Rogan's and stuff like that that have been you know, uh, 135 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: pro cannabis for you in decades. But now you've got 136 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 1: just any old geek off the street coming in. And 137 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,039 Speaker 1: I'm not suggesting her she's a geek off street it 138 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 1: by no means. I'm just saying there's a lot of 139 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: just people jumping on it right now, and it's a 140 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: smashing grab in my opinion, they're trying to build a 141 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: company up with their name. They're trying to make some 142 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: extra cash calls and hope they make some money along 143 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 1: the way. Because they have a name, they're gonna promote 144 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: it on social media. And I wouldn't be surprised at 145 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: the Kardashians next. And you know what, And I'm okay, 146 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: I'm okay with me too. I just when I give 147 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: us something like this, this is a supermodel who is 148 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: also going to be very influential in the suburbs where 149 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 1: and in the Bible Belt area with a lot of 150 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 1: these that just call it what it is. White women 151 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: out there who are the soccer moms are gonna say, wow, 152 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: I grew up admiring this lady. Yeah, you know what, 153 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: maybe I'll go by it. So I think she's gonna 154 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: open a lot of people's eyes as well. Even though 155 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: it doesn't have the th HC in it, it does 156 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: have the CBD. And I love her analogy at the end, 157 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: and I think that analogy should be pushed more and more, 158 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: which is once again, it's like giving great to our children. 159 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 1: They're not drinking wine, but they're going with the griep 160 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: So I'm Joe. Granted, that's your go Green segment. Let's 161 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: hear from somebody we haven't heard from longer than Craig 162 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 1: with Mark Washerman's when cannabis goes bad. Oh, you know 163 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: there's no more stories. There's no more cannabis goes bad. 164 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: It's all good. Can you believe it? As busy as 165 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: you guys are, Here we go, I got one. The 166 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 1: headline read is out of summer Set, Pennsylvania.

And if you know what you're doing, and 207 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 1: you understand how to get a real electrician to set 208 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 1: up your electricity, make sure that it's safe, that you 209 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 1: have the proper breakers and stuff like that in play. 210 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: And and if you're just learning, I would say that 211 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: the most important thing is setting up your electrical because 212 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: if you screw everything else up, yeah, you don't get 213 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: you don't get the plant, you don't get to enjoy 214 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: the fruits of your labor. But then you're gonna you're 215 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 1: gonna start a fire and the cops are gonna come 216 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 1: arrest you, like and and and then coming into that though, 217 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: is that how many times over the years have we 218 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 1: heard about people you know, oh, I got caught because 219 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: you know, um, I was shooting guns in my backyard 220 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 1: and the cops showed up and they ran through my 221 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: house and they found it. It wasn't the weed that 222 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: they showed up for. You know, almost every time, you know, 223 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 1: and it's like someone that's driving down the street. I 224 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: I was stressed this a lot. I said, listen, if 225 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 1: you get pulled over by the police and you get 226 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: caught with cannabis, it's a hundred percent your stupidity. It's 227 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 1: not because you know they were looking for you, Like 228 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: cops don't go do stings on the side of the road. 229 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: You're not you know, you could drive with the hundred 230 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:45,439 Speaker 1: pounds if if a police officer is pulling you over, okay, 231 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 1: it's your fault because you did something wrong. You ran 232 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 1: meaning ran a red light, you were speeding, Uh, you 233 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: made a legal turn. No, no, we profiling. But once again, 234 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,679 Speaker 1: though Craig Mark, if you're profiled, you still gotta follow 235 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 1: the script. So you're like, I just want to point 236 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 1: out that people get pulled over for no reason. No, no, 237 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,959 Speaker 1: no no, And I agree with that, But I'm saying, 238 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: you know, I was I used to get pulled over 239 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: and I'd have I'd have X, Y and Z in 240 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,839 Speaker 1: the back profile.

You know, that's the moral of that story. 265 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 1: Now out of New Jersey, the headline reads, New Jersey 266 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 1: cops have arrested six thousand people for cannabis. Six thousands. 267 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 1: I was gonna do. I was gonna do this story. 268 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 1: Good do it? Since voters passed ballot to legalized cannabis, Okay, 269 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: so not six I was thinking six thousand people at 270 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 1: one time, so okay, this is just and I was like, 271 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,559 Speaker 1: what six thousand people? The number of the numbers went up, 272 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,200 Speaker 1: so yeah. So New Jersey police have arrested more than 273 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:59,959 Speaker 1: six thousand people for minor cannabis possessions in three month, 274 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 1: since two point seven million voters said yes the legalizing 275 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,199 Speaker 1: cannabis and going on in the East coast over there 276 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: doing some Sadi ship Like, what's going on over there? Dog? 277 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 1: It's crazy right now? Well, the New Jersey cuomo's in 278 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 1: New York the East coast. So the arrest continue as 279 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 1: lawmakers and Governor Phil Murphy worked on a last minute 280 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 1: compromise forstalled cannabis legalization and decriminalization bills, and people mistakenly 281 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 1: believe that it has already reformed its laws. So it's more, 282 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: you know, it's just more of this something. You know, 283 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 1: it's gonna be legal. It's legal past, people voted for 284 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 1: it a past, and so the majority of people around 285 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: their thing, well, it's already legal. And then please people. 286 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 1: They arrested two thousand, three seventy eight people for possessing 287 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 1: less than fifty grams of cannabis during the month of January. 288 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 1: During the months of January, and that here because the 289 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: pre election average of a people a day. Well, I 290 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:11,119 Speaker 1: mean the problem is, like you said, people aren't educated. 291 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 1: And just because they passed the initiative to change the law, 292 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 1: it technically has been changed on the books. So the 293 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: police don't give a ship that it's gonna ultimately be 294 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 1: changed for this initiative. Right now, it's still on the books, 295 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 1: so they're gonna enforce it. Hey, guys, check this out. 296 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 1: Check this out.

I just read her article on 397 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:49,159 Speaker 1: into the Gloss dot com. You guys have heard about 398 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 1: her and self magazine, Reclaire, Forbes, Essence us A today 399 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:58,120 Speaker 1: and she, oh god, she first threw my attention. Um 400 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 1: when I read about Coneclusive. Um she's a co founder. Um, 401 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 1: I wanted to read a quick little segment about her 402 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 1: in into the Gloss dot com. When I grew up 403 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 1: in Detroit and my family mostly worked in automotive plants 404 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 1: or school teachers. When I grew up, I wanted to 405 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 1: be a lawyer because I watched a lot of Matlock 406 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 1: with my grandmother and thought Jester for lawyers, asked spiffy 407 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 1: questions and made a lot of money. Then she laughed, 408 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: and she's like, I went to the University of Michigan 409 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: UM and excelled in communications, are media, icon and film 410 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:31,440 Speaker 1: and ended up focusing on marketing as a career. So 411 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 1: I'm so excited that she didn't listen to her original 412 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 1: gut and her family of being a lawyer, because I've 413 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:40,440 Speaker 1: been watching her just changed the world in cannabis. And 414 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 1: as she goes on to say, you know, that's how 415 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,479 Speaker 1: Coneclusive came together. And one of the first thing she 416 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 1: saw she did was a photo project. So she saw 417 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 1: that there just really wasn't any representation of people like 418 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 1: in the black and brown people through cannabis. So like 419 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 1: when people tried to be supportive, you know, to help 420 00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 1: other people in the black community, there was just stock 421 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: photo and it was just fake stock photos. So she 422 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 1: actually started a site for people to go on for free. 423 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:07,920 Speaker 1: So I wanted her to give her a shout out 424 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,199 Speaker 1: and that and then uh got in. She was just 425 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,239 Speaker 1: glowing on so many others. So so I want to 426 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:17,119 Speaker 1: understand this, like when you go to this stock photo, 427 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 1: is there a website for this? Um so just a 428 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 1: general stock photos like on Google, So just like just 429 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,439 Speaker 1: the free stock photos. So I guess she saw that 430 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 1: there was just a real shortage of just like men 431 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:30,679 Speaker 1: and women in business shoots suits to use you know, 432 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 1: you know, like we all you know, make our websites 433 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: as cannabs founders. So they would try and show you know, 434 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: people going out, you know, just random stock photos, and 435 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 1: there just wasn't any that showcase people in the black community, 436 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 1: Like she thought, well enough, so they were able to 437 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,399 Speaker 1: go together and then do this whole photo site. So 438 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 1: now if you want stock photos, there's just an assortment 439 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 1: of every people of just all colors, especially like with 440 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 1: what's going on and so current with one and uh, 441 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 1: you know BLM Black Lives Matter, like this is always 442 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:06,919 Speaker 1: a four forward movement.

He probably is glad he's not 601 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 1: doing credit card processing with the Cannabis Space. Firmer Ease 602 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 1: CEO Jim Patterson to be charged in a hundred million 603 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 1: dollar Canada's paid processing case. What hard is against Patterson 604 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:49,840 Speaker 1: connecting Manhattan District case alleging that two business people Ruben 605 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 1: Wigan and I'm mid Acabon duped banks into processing cannabis sales. 606 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 1: So back in the day, when it was before it 607 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 1: was regulated at the level, there were ways for processing. Now, 608 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,960 Speaker 1: you you know they call it maybe a different type 609 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 1: of store, or call a different type of a sale 610 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 1: and not show and not really let on it was 611 00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 1: cannabis sales and I guess they got caught, and uh, 612 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,000 Speaker 1: it's not looking good for the guy. It's a federal charge, 613 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 1: you know, Craig. That's a big point right now, because 614 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 1: a lot of companies are set up for as a 615 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:25,840 Speaker 1: marketing company. They set their company for marketing, but really 616 00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 1: they're taking in capital for cannabis and and it's a 617 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 1: it's kind of a workaround. But is it a federal crime? 618 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 1: Of course, you're well, I mean, if you're duping banks, 619 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 1: the different The difference is if you're a regulated business, 620 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:43,680 Speaker 1: you have a state license, you can find banks. They're expensive, 621 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 1: but you can find banks who are willing to take 622 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 1: the money under the Financial Crime Unit rules and regulations 623 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 1: of knowing who your client is and the money isn't 624 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 1: coming from that I legal source, and the banks can 625 00:32:56,760 --> 00:33:00,080 Speaker 1: do that, but then the people are being upfront about it, 626 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:03,520 Speaker 1: not saying, really, we're a car wash and this is 627 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 1: where all coming from. So exactly, so you've got that, 628 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: you've got several different crimes that they're gonna be facing against. Right, 629 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 1: you got the banks that are gonna go after him. 630 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 1: Then you're gonna have Visa, MasterCard, Impossible Express coming after them. 631 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 1: Then you're gonna also have the FEDS come after them 632 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 1: directly as well. So you're gonna have the bank go 633 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 1: after you if you get caught. Right, So it's been 634 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 1: the game that obviously I got my hands and it 635 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 1: been been a part of But I mean, I wonder 636 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 1: how they get caught.

Actually led to the investigation A hunter million 638 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 1: or something like that, say so here here's how you 639 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 1: get But I mean, but but if if the hundred 640 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:40,239 Speaker 1: million is processed, I mean, does it if there's no 641 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 1: irregularities in the processing, who goes, Wait a minute, is 642 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,920 Speaker 1: that really car wash money?

By you 667 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 1: get delivered, but you have to have a hand to 668 00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,719 Speaker 1: hand treat. You know what's gonna hopefully it's gonna, he's gonna, 669 00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,680 Speaker 1: he's gonna help us. Is this new bill introduced by 670 00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:19,279 Speaker 1: Senator Nancy Skinner here in California, And what's gonna what 671 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 1: sp three ninety eight does is it allows cities who 672 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: are not yet up and running with cannabis ordinance does 673 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:31,240 Speaker 1: and policies and regulations to actually rely on the state 674 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:37,400 Speaker 1: to issue both city and state license. Listen to these numbers, 675 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,200 Speaker 1: and this is this is what's causing her to bring 676 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:44,320 Speaker 1: this UH to have this bill filed so that cities 677 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 1: that don't have the wherewithal, they don't have the bandwidth, 678 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:49,320 Speaker 1: they don't have the funds to either pass an ordinance, 679 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 1: which normally that's what it takes you. You pass an ordinance, 680 00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 1: the city passes an ordinance, or the people of the 681 00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 1: city file and pass an initiative. Instead of those two 682 00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 1: things occurring. A city can opt into this program if 683 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:07,640 Speaker 1: the boat passes, which would authorize the state's licensing system 684 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:11,840 Speaker 1: to create both the state and local and local approvals. 685 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:17,120 Speaker 1: What's crazy is in November of sixteen, California has approved Prop. 686 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,280 Speaker 1: Sixty four by a fifty seven to forty three percent margin, 687 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:25,400 Speaker 1: legalizing adult use statewide. Blah blah blah. This was designed 688 00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:31,200 Speaker 1: to replace the underground market most cities. Still today, we're 689 00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:37,280 Speaker 1: still at sixty eight sixty eight percent of the counties 690 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 1: and cities have not allowed any type of legal cannabis 691 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:46,240 Speaker 1: business to open their boundaries. I mean, it's it's crazy 692 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:50,319 Speaker 1: that sixty eight percent. I mean, that's damn near. That's 693 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 1: you know, that's that's that's the unthinkable number of cities 694 00:36:55,200 --> 00:37:00,760 Speaker 1: and counties when the majority of California's citizens voted to 695 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:05,319 Speaker 1: allow regulate the sale of cannabis. Craig can, I ask you, 696 00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 1: because I believe I'm hearing it this way, which is 697 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,880 Speaker 1: the city can get the authority over the state to 698 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:13,640 Speaker 1: make it happen for the city. If the if the city, 699 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 1: the city can to the state and go, you know what, 700 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna use your program. So everything's uploaded, everything's done 701 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:24,239 Speaker 1: at so much that much quickly. For an entrepreneur purventially planning, uh, 702 00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:28,520 Speaker 1: building permits, getting things checked by the inspectors. That's still 703 00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 1: gonna be a city issue as far as getting someone 704 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 1: get of occupancy to actually do business, because people can 705 00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 1: get their city approval for cannabis and their state approval 706 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:41,320 Speaker 1: and not really be able to do business. The city 707 00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:45,800 Speaker 1: signs off like any other business, you're ready to go, engineering, planning, 708 00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 1: fire inspections and all that ship. So all that should 709 00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:53,320 Speaker 1: aside all the other regulatory paperwork, you have to file 710 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:55,800 Speaker 1: the city. The state is going to have a portal 711 00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:59,400 Speaker 1: that a city can opt into and go. We're not 712 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,520 Speaker 1: past there and ordinance. We're not doing an initiative. We're saying, 713 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 1: this is where you can have your businesses in the city. 714 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 1: Here's the you know, go to the state, sign it 715 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:10,359 Speaker 1: a special portal and you'll be able to get both 716 00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 1: the city and state approvals all in one. Well, that'd 717 00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 1: be nice. That's that's Uh. What is the numbers? And 718 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,799 Speaker 1: this is according you might have updated this, Joe, I 719 00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:21,759 Speaker 1: don't know, but according to it, this is a two 720 00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:26,760 Speaker 1: thousand nineteen study, the illegal cannabis industry is over eight 721 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:30,280 Speaker 1: billion dollars. By contrast, the legal market still only about 722 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 1: three and a half billion dollars. I mean, if they 723 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:36,920 Speaker 1: open up the cities and make it easier for cities 724 00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:41,279 Speaker 1: to allow cannabis activities, that's the only way the underground 725 00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:45,120 Speaker 1: market is going to disappear. And it makes total sense 726 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:47,759 Speaker 1: if these six eight percent of cities would fucking utilize this, 727 00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:50,120 Speaker 1: that they come to an agreement with the state and 728 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:53,799 Speaker 1: to allow other entrepreneurs to No, no, it's not them 729 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:57,240 Speaker 1: coming to an agreement with the state. It's the city 730 00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:05,200 Speaker 1: coming into agreement with itself. Well the percent of the 731 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:09,319 Speaker 1: cities and counties it's banned. So cities either have to 732 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 1: reverse their bands with an ordinance or an initiative by 733 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:16,840 Speaker 1: the people with expensive and hard to do, or they 734 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,359 Speaker 1: the state is saying, you know what, you don't have 735 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:23,680 Speaker 1: to do ship, We're gonna do that for you. We're 736 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:26,920 Speaker 1: gonna pass this bill that allows the state to offer 737 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:30,799 Speaker 1: that service to the city. Because what people might not 738 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 1: realize is when you do a city application, almost I 739 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,880 Speaker 1: would say a hundred percent if not of all the 740 00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:44,800 Speaker 1: documentation and security plans, and management plans, and waste management plans, 741 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 1: and operational plans and standard operating procedure plans and employee 742 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:54,000 Speaker 1: handbug plans for all that stuff gets basically duplicated and 743 00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:57,920 Speaker 1: is uploaded to the state because the cities who passed 744 00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:03,919 Speaker 1: ordinances patterned their ordinances after what the state demands, so 745 00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:07,799 Speaker 1: it's basically the same documents. So the state is saying 746 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:11,840 Speaker 1: will handle it for the city period and the city 747 00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:15,839 Speaker 1: doesn't have to go through the whole application process. That's nice. 748 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 1: Just to backtrack real quick, as I was hitting here 749 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 1: listening to you with the ease uh story that you know, 750 00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:23,719 Speaker 1: we moved on. We moved on from I want to 751 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,319 Speaker 1: educate the folks out there of what happened.

Very small percent of Pete boat 760 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:04,720 Speaker 1: in the cannabis the legal cannabis base are people of color, 761 00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:08,839 Speaker 1: or people who fought who or the people who were 762 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 1: targeted by the War on drugs. They're disproportionately, uh not 763 00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:17,600 Speaker 1: account for in the regulated market. This will help those 764 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:20,680 Speaker 1: who don't have the means and the funds to get 765 00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:24,960 Speaker 1: into the regulated market.
