No, I think it's actually like. 51 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,799 Speaker 1: To be honest with you, that's slipping back because just 52 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: second ago you were liking the like the going to 53 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 1: be here, and I reminded you what you said before 54 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: about smoke a thons. Oh now you're flipping. You sound 55 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 1: like my brother. But you know what, I was rolling 56 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: with it. But it's funny how much that bothers you 57 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 1: that I didn't like an idea of yours? Mean, how 58 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: much were smoking? Ridiculous? Second, let's pull in can of 59 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: kids as a charity. People. Hey, kids, how much I 60 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 1: can smoke weed? Yeah, let's not add the kids to this. 61 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: You don't want to make money for the canny kids. 62 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: I want you to smoke when you need it. You know, 63 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 1: when you're smoke on an abundance, you don't need it. 64 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 1: Here's the thing, there's a fine line when you start 65 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,119 Speaker 1: talking about children in cannabis and canny. Kids is great 66 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:16,799 Speaker 1: because there are kids that need cannabis, hands down, yes, 67 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: But when you're when you're over indulging and you're raising 68 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: money for kids, you're also putting off a questionable message. 69 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: So we have to be responsible and we have to 70 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 1: do the right thing. It could see it was important 71 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 1: to influence people to do the right thing. Agreed. I'll 72 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: agree with that. So we could just smo. We could 73 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: have a straight smoke out though. That's good, you know, 74 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: I mean that's I mean, that's a grown folk, adult 75 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: you know thing to do.

I don't 169 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: know if you guys have seen this and hurt it. 170 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 1: I'm sure you have them saying everybody out there, but 171 00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: Cheech and Chung are finally getting their due diligence. I mean, 172 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 1: are you gonna break it down? You want to tell 173 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: you want to share it? Definitely? Definitely. I mean it's 174 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 1: just it's just it's all of the above, right because 175 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 1: now Cheach and chalcol finally capitalize on their iconic movies 176 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 1: that they've been doing Up and Smoke and their whole franchise, 177 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,439 Speaker 1: and they finally group up with five point Holdings and 178 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: it's like funny to think that, you know, they're They're 179 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: not just gonna do it here in California. They got 180 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: five states, Arizona, California, Illinois, Nevada, and Washington. And I 181 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: think this is well overdue. I mean, you know what 182 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: I'm saying. I'll tell you what Cheech and Chong have done. 183 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: You know, a very fantastic job of staying separate for 184 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: a long time. And what I mean by that is 185 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 1: this is that they have never been promoting together in cannabis. 186 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: They've been doing their own things. So Tommy Chong has 187 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:47,959 Speaker 1: been doing his own thing. Chong had his great bonds, 188 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 1: is the most protected. So so you know, five points 189 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 1: coming in and offering them, you know, millions of dollars 190 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,719 Speaker 1: obviously or something that there's something there that they must 191 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: have just persuaded them to do the Cheech and Chong brand, 192 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 1: because that, my friends, is going to be next level. 193 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: Because they should have. They should have. You know, I 194 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 1: thought for sure they should have had a Cheech and 195 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: Chong products out. Everything should have been rolled out a 196 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 1: long time ago. But they waited it out and they 197 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: got the right deal. But the funny part about this 198 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 1: is I think about it and us on this panel 199 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: and probably everybody in this room. Um maybe Peanut is 200 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 1: probably the youngest and Jennifer, but we all know Cheech 201 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: and Chong. My point is those that are twenty seven 202 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 1: and younger and you start smoking at twenty five exactly 203 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: my point. You know, it's like, you know, are they 204 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: gonna be Oh yeah, So Peanut, do you know who 205 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: Cheach and Chong is? I mean, of course you know what. 206 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: You just look good? Okay, my bad, Jennifer. I thought, well, 207 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 1: you never know. You grew up in a family that 208 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 1: have you watching. But I'm just thank you is just 209 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 1: out of me sometimes. So we gotta get your your 210 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: glasses fixed. I mean, you're you're lacing fixed. So we'll 211 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 1: be right back after this break. Just so where are 212 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: we going? I gotta go good eye surgery. But no, 213 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 1: the point is that you know, as they're opening up 214 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: in five states and it's smart and I think it's 215 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 1: great because let's just face it, the people that are 216 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:20,719 Speaker 1: going into dispensaries are older anyways, right, so finding this demographic, 217 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 1: all of us are gonna want to go to one 218 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 1: of these stores. Period. I'm gonna want to go and 219 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 1: just up the name alone. I want to go into 220 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: a Cheech and Chong dispensaries exactly. I want It's like 221 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 1: an Elvis Presley store. Oh my god, I gotta go there. Yeah, yeah, 222 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:35,439 Speaker 1: you know, let me say this to those, is what 223 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 1: do the young ones want here? Well? No, let me 224 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 1: let me ask you this though, is that I don't 225 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 1: think the young ones do want to. I don't think 226 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 1: they have a stake in the game, because Dad, you're gonna, Mom, 227 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 1: We're gonna take them in there. Come on, We're going 228 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:46,719 Speaker 1: to the shop here. Here's why I'm a fan of 229 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,599 Speaker 1: Cheach and Chung in my opinion, I'm a fan of 230 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: them because of what they've done for the community. Um, 231 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: I'm a fan of them personally, you know, as as 232 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: human beings. I've I've got to sit with them. Uh. 233 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,719 Speaker 1: And so they're they're just good people, stand for the 234 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 1: cannabis community, and and and Tommy has actually done time 235 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 1: for this, you know, um, for for just for the 236 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 1: bonds and and so when you think of it, though, 237 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 1: you know, do I want to go there? Yes, But 238 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: I am also concerned and not too much. I'm sure 239 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,440 Speaker 1: Five Points is a very sophisticated company. They're gonna blow 240 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: it through the roof um. But there there may be 241 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: the thought that it's just you know, it is novelty, 242 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 1: and a lot of novelty things, don't you know. They're 243 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 1: they're quick sells fast, you know. So if they have 244 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 1: the right locations in the right the right places, it'll 245 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: be fine. Oh, I'm sure it is in some statements 246 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 1: that they made. Tommy Chong said, Cheech and I have 247 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,599 Speaker 1: waited patiently to find the right combination of talent and 248 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,679 Speaker 1: the right team to trust. With the Cheech and Chong properties, 249 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,319 Speaker 1: we both pursued our own individual projects, knowing if the 250 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 1: right opportunity came along, we would do something with our 251 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:54,199 Speaker 1: Cheech and Chung brand, and with five point holdings, we 252 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: have the winning combination. And Cheech went out and said, 253 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 1: the Cheech and Chung movies, songs and comedy bits have 254 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: helped shaped and mold the weed culture as we know 255 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: it today. Now we're bringing that trusted, funny and familiar 256 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: cannabis comedy experience into the store environments. I'm almost hoping, dude, 257 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 1: they have like the whole Remember when they got to 258 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 1: do a movie, They gotta do some type of movie. 259 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: But remember when they do like the joint and the 260 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 1: car with the nuns in there, Like I almost want 261 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: to see a station wagon with the nuns in this 262 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:30,839 Speaker 1: fucking shop, this stupid ship, like that in the movie, 263 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: like pissing on somebody pissed on the dude in the bathroom. 264 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 1: I just see that mark doing that to somebody on 265 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:40,199 Speaker 1: that I can't see. Yeah, I can't see, like a 266 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 1: Cheech and Chong Revolution movie. You know, Yeah, there's just 267 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: something coming. Don't look at his nick whatever you do, 268 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,599 Speaker 1: don't look at his neck. Now. It's it's fun and 269 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 1: it's it's fun. And I do hope that they actually, 270 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 1: um you know, uh, do shoot a new movie in 271 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 1: a new production behind it, because you know, they deserve 272 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: the the the credit worst credits due because again they're 273 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 1: there are a pair of Hispanics that have came out 274 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: into this this culture way before their time and and 275 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: and really stood behind it when when a lot of 276 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: people didn't want to stand behind it and didn't really 277 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 1: get it. But they did, you know, because in the 278 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 1: seventies and eighties, you know, there was a lot of 279 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 1: cannabis smoke. I mean, you know, seventies it was a 280 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: big time for smoking. But again it turned into this 281 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: like negative thing, taboo, the whole propaganda everything else. One 282 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 1: of the thing that the president of Five Point Holding 283 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: said that he said a lot of things obviously, but 284 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: one thing that stands out that I really like from 285 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: Danny Keith, he's the president of Five Point Holding. He says, 286 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: we're going to open Cheech and Chong dispensaries all over 287 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: the world. And you know that just that line right 288 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 1: there sums up everything great about what he had to 289 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 1: say about them. And there's a lot of great things 290 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: he has to say about them and why this company 291 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 1: joined forces. But to give that stamp of you know, 292 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: we're starting in five states right now, the five states 293 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 1: I've mentioned, But to say we're gonna open all over 294 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 1: the world, that's the type of love that they're gonna 295 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 1: get and deserve. I mean, these guys are literally the 296 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 1: pioneers of this, you know what I mean, Like, let's 297 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 1: just face it, who before Cheech and Chong made a 298 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: movie about cannabis too remotely this level and a cool level, 299 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: because this was cool and funny, you know what I mean. 300 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 1: I can't think of one movie that was there really is. 301 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 1: I mean, they had like smoking and drugs and coke 302 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 1: and certain random movies. Friday was a great movie. Friday 303 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:38,560 Speaker 1: wasn't before that's after I said before after I said, 304 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 1: think the Pioneers. That's what I'm saying. Who else has 305 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 1: ever done it? There was I'm trying to think of 306 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 1: movies that would go further back like that. I mean, 307 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 1: I don't think there really was one. I mean, when 308 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 1: when you think about cannabis movies, you think re for Madness, Well, 309 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 1: I think of Fast Times at Ridgemont High, which is 310 00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: around that same time. It was still after it was 311 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 1: still after teaching. I mean, definitely people had cannabis in 312 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 1: their movies, you know, but I don't know that they 313 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 1: were based around out of a cannabis, know that. What 314 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 1: about the Chick in the back with the big old 315 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 1: booming smoking the play and it was just funny, fun 316 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 1: movies like that you just watched, you know, these are 317 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: the iconic.
