Maybe it was. 334 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: I just remember seeing I thought it was one of 335 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 1: the it's a very free, drunk and drunking monkey. I 336 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 1: feel like, I don't know, but anyhow, I want to 337 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: see it too. But he got into that that's been 338 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 1: there in the States.

No, 350 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: I was. I was probably already leaving death from when 351 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 1: Atlantic at twenty six, though, I was in Brazil. That's 352 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:34,880 Speaker 1: when I went there, twenty six, twenty seven years old, 353 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:36,159 Speaker 1: so I was just sober a couple of months when 354 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:37,440 Speaker 1: I went there. So I was like I got sober 355 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 1: in twenty six. So ironically at that age, I went 356 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 1: to Brazil Grand up for nine Hold. Wow, so around 357 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 1: the same time we're there in Brazil. It was so 358 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 1: funny that was in salth Follo quite a bit, were 359 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,320 Speaker 1: you Yeah? So I was there for there like one 360 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:52,719 Speaker 1: week a month for a minute. Yeah, we did this. 361 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: One thing was Frank Shamrock fights. So it was the 362 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 1: early UFC days when there wasn't you know, the weight 363 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 1: classes and all this fought back in the days in 364 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 1: Franks a Bay Area guy, so he had me harry 365 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: his belts in the ring, which were Dopos me him 366 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 1: or Reese Smith and Javier Mendez. It's one of these 367 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 1: like world fit, Like what am I doing here in 368 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 1: Brazil with the USC champions. I'm a Boso fighter, you're 369 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 1: a bum for me sidest I'll say, you're a fat idiot. 370 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: But it's so great. But Brazil, though, is a scary 371 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 1: place in my opinion, because it's not like one of 372 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:21,640 Speaker 1: those spots where there's like I didn't feel a lot 373 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 1: of security, a lot of police, more homeless. More like 374 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:27,639 Speaker 1: like when you pull off that airport in South follow 375 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 1: it's third world country right away, straight shacks and everything 376 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 1: right off the airport, and I was like, wow. Then 377 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:36,920 Speaker 1: you finally get into South Polo, you're like and people like, okay, 378 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 1: it's pretty good. Like it's pretty good here. I just 379 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: passed six families on the street by my hotel. I 380 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 1: feel all bad. Every time I went to dinner. I 381 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,159 Speaker 1: bought my food home and fed one family in particular, 382 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 1: because that two boys that reminded me and me and 383 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 1: my brother. So it's like that when you were out there, 384 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 1: did did you feel saved? Did it feel funny? Yeah? 385 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:53,399 Speaker 1: I think fear is a relative term, if you know 386 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 1: what I mean. I mean, once you live in a 387 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: place for a minute, he spent some time, they are 388 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,640 Speaker 1: I mean, honestly, you can go to parts of America 389 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 1: that are complete war zones, right so that they look 390 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:06,879 Speaker 1: like developing nations. I mean, you can go to the 391 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 1: reservations and what's happened there and what you know the 392 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:13,880 Speaker 1: US government has down there, and that those communities. I mean, 393 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,880 Speaker 1: there's lots of oppression. There's lots of inequality here in America, right, 394 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 1: so you know. And the other thing too is, you know, 395 00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 1: having said all that, one of the things I learned 396 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 1: in Brazil was actually had to be a human being, 397 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 1: you know, And that's something that I didn't learn here 398 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: in America. I'm not saying you can't learn it, but 399 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:29,719 Speaker 1: we're just so independent, and we're so separate, and we're 400 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 1: in such silos. I'll give an example, like when you 401 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 1: go out to a bar, you have drinks, So you 402 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,679 Speaker 1: go to barbecue, you have your beers, right, and so 403 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,679 Speaker 1: everyone will have their own bottle of beer individualized. In Brazil, 404 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 1: it's not that way. You'll have a cup that's like 405 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 1: this big a glass cup, one big beer, and you're 406 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 1: just pouring the glass every time, and then when the 407 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:47,159 Speaker 1: beer runs out, you order a new one and you 408 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: keep pouring everybody's glass. It's a different vibe. It creates 409 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 1: a different connection. Everyone's sharing the same meal, everyone's sharing 410 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:57,119 Speaker 1: the same libation. The beer is always cold. Everyone's in 411 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 1: it together, pouring, serving everybody else, just to from tension. 412 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 1: Different way of communicating. Yeah, I like that, and it's 413 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: similar to cannabis. Man's let's talk about that about bringing 414 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: back to cannabis. We do one thing I want to 415 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 1: ask you, really I want to dive back into you know, 416 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 1: want a brand. But but how is the weed out there? 417 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 1: You know it's a good question. Yeah, I mean in Colorado? 418 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 1: Well well yeah, but I think it. Yeah, we could 419 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:33,200 Speaker 1: go Colorado too, But I'm smoked in Colorado but not Brazil. Yeah, 420 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:34,440 Speaker 1: so I would say, first of all, the weed in 421 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,920 Speaker 1: Brazil is not that good. Uh. And one of the 422 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 1: cool things about where I've lived is being able to 423 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: smoke the weed in all those places and really understand 424 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 1: the different gunja. So you know, in in Brazil, a 425 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 1: lot of that. The weed is coming from the north, 426 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 1: from Partaguay, and then it's a lot of it's called competenza. 427 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: So they take it, they mix it with the chemical 428 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 1: and then they put it in these blocks. So you're 429 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 1: not getting like pure weed. You're getting weed with chemicals 430 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: for the most part. So it's not a clear bud. 431 00:20:57,880 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 1: It's not a clear flower. You go down in the 432 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 1: cribby and and it's much different. Right, And I was 433 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 1: in Trinidad. You have locally grown Trinidad. You have obviously 434 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 1: Jamaican which is coming through, and then you have Vincy 435 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,679 Speaker 1: st Vincent they have. But really the creme de la 436 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 1: cremin in the Caribbean is is the Jamaican. The ganja 437 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,879 Speaker 1: so good, just ganja, gonja gold or whatever. It's gonja 438 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 1: gold and it's going all across the islands. If you 439 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 1: can get the Jamaican, that's the best stuff to get, 440 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: hands down. And how about in Colorado. Oh, I got 441 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:28,360 Speaker 1: nothing to add to all that. I mean, I mean, 442 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 1: you know, Colorado, Uh, it's great. Like of course, every 443 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 1: state thinks that they have the best, right so um, 444 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: but you know, Colorado, we've got a pretty mature industry. 445 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,959 Speaker 1: We've got great growers, We've got greenhouse, we got indoor, 446 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: we got you know pretty much, uh, every everything that 447 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: a cannabis consumer could want, we have in called So 448 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,239 Speaker 1: tell me the brand? You know who who are you guys? Right, 449 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: So it's funny to do us. I look at the 450 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:53,199 Speaker 1: Burnt brand and I want to say this, it's so 451 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 1: funny because I feel like this brand is a lot 452 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 1: bigger than what we think and he wants. But I 453 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: know I want them to explain it to our lists 454 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 1: right because although we've done the research, our our listeners 455 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: having it right. So we want to make sure we 456 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 1: we we we get out the message.

So we both report to her. 471 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:47,359 Speaker 1: She's an amazing boss, an amazing leader. Wanna is really 472 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:51,159 Speaker 1: about extending I would say consciousness if you will, and 473 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,879 Speaker 1: utilizing the plant. We utilize the gummy. That's really our 474 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 1: go to, that's what we've really honed our craft on. 475 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:58,680 Speaker 1: And we look at the gummy as a delivery system, 476 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:00,880 Speaker 1: as a delivery platform for can of this based medicine. 477 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: So we don't see it as a cheap, you know, 478 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,200 Speaker 1: piece of candy that's just infused with THC, which is fine. 479 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:06,919 Speaker 1: We just have, you know, I think we believe in 480 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:08,399 Speaker 1: a higher mission and what we want to do. We 481 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 1: believe this little square or this triangle that we utilize, 482 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,360 Speaker 1: depending on the different lines that we have of gummies 483 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,159 Speaker 1: is really designed to improve people's lives and really just 484 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 1: raise consciousness, raise awareness, and just make people's lives better. 485 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 1: And that's the intention of philosophy that we all live 486 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,160 Speaker 1: and breathe every day with everything that we do. It's 487 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: so refreshing to hear more and more companies with that 488 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 1: type of it is it is you you just right now. 489 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: That are key terms. And Christopher writes and Joe Grant's 490 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 1: freaking message that we want to push out to the 491 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,439 Speaker 1: world about cannabis, which is the way you used it. 492 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 1: This is medicine this way like like that's why. That's 493 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: how I mean. Don't get me wrong, you want to 494 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:50,919 Speaker 1: I'm not, but don't. I like to think, and we 495 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:52,639 Speaker 1: like to think. We want to get it to the 496 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 1: point where that one gummy is perfect for you know, 497 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 1: four animals. Correct, I wanted to get to that point 498 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 1: or you want to you wanna gummy? Well, this want 499 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 1: top can equal that if you guys, or if you 500 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:05,680 Speaker 1: want to get obliberated and that's what you know, that's 501 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 1: what you want to do. That's that's cool too. But 502 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 1: I think I think the medical the consciousness of having 503 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: the understanding that we have this ability to be, you know, 504 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,439 Speaker 1: more than just fast food, you know, in this in 505 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 1: this industry specifically, meaning that you know, there's a lot 506 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:19,919 Speaker 1: of us that are coming in that are gonna be 507 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 1: fast food because that's all we know. And that's okay, 508 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:24,400 Speaker 1: you know, But then there's those guys that are sitting 509 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 1: back and like, look, we're really building this out so 510 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 1: that people can really understand and get the same same 511 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 1: experience every single time we try this product and understand 512 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 1: that this product is actually learning every single time from 513 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 1: our our clients, our customers, and and from our staff 514 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,439 Speaker 1: and everything that we and we're growing and evolving with 515 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 1: the world, because again, it's not for us when people 516 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 1: come in. A lot of people come in in the 517 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 1: um you know, the fast food range what I call it, 518 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: and they just want to sell the greatness, you know, 519 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: versus like, yo're we're you know, this is a real 520 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 1: life for us. It's like a ritual. Well you know 521 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 1: we're talking about we're talking about that video is going 522 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,119 Speaker 1: to go of our of our VP of innovation. The 523 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,199 Speaker 1: reason that video works so well is because he feels 524 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 1: deeply passionately about what he is doing and how he 525 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 1: does it and what he puts into our products. So 526 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 1: that's that's why it comes through the way it does. Yeah, 527 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:20,160 Speaker 1: I'm it's scripted well and shot and all that good stuff, 528 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 1: but it's really about the passion and it's about the 529 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,120 Speaker 1: fact that you know, to your point, I mean, we don't. 530 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 1: We don't prescribe. We don't say you need to use 531 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,400 Speaker 1: it for medicine. We say enhance your life whatever it is. Yeah, 532 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:33,639 Speaker 1: whatever that means spiritually, spiritually cannabis is that the like 533 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 1: like a lot of people don't understand the consciousness and 534 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 1: and we're self medicating. We've been self medicating with cannabis 535 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 1: for years and years and years, and a lot of 536 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:49,399 Speaker 1: people do it with alcohol, every everything, you know. Yeah, 537 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: And it's all those things and and as and as 538 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,200 Speaker 1: we start to identify them and really divide them into 539 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: what path do you do you choose to to let 540 00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 1: yourself medicate in in that way. And for for us, 541 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 1: you know a lot of times, it's been just sobriety, right, 542 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 1: And so a lot of people are like, well, why 543 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 1: don't you want to take because people give me ship 544 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 1: all day and I'm just like, thank you, thank you. 545 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 1: Did I hear try it right now?

I'm very, very afraid. And it's not 558 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:39,439 Speaker 1: because I haven't tried a ton of them off the 559 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 1: market all my life. It's because I just want to 560 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 1: evolve with the industry, you know. And I just my 561 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 1: standard has changed and not everybody's has, you know, so 562 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: for sure, and I think you hear a lot of 563 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,880 Speaker 1: things that you guys are saying, Joe and Eric and 564 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 1: you mentioned her, which is led by a woman in 565 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,160 Speaker 1: this company, and she has done, in my opinion, amazing 566 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 1: job by hiring all from the engineer that you just 567 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 1: mentioned to you guys, to building a staff that has 568 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 1: really pushed this company. You guys, I'm not mistaken, are 569 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 1: in thirteen states that I see right here. We're actually 570 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: fourteen fourteen fourteen. We're going to be in eighteen fourteen 571 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,280 Speaker 1: states plus Canada Number one Gummy in Canada as well, 572 00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:19,120 Speaker 1: and then we'll be in eighteen total markets by May 573 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 1: of this year. I just think it's crazy because, like 574 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 1: your guys, products are are all over the place, and 575 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: even when you come into California, where we're at right now, 576 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I've heard of you guys, but it's it's 577 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:33,400 Speaker 1: it's it's everywhere. Not just like a dispensary for medical only, 578 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 1: it's adult use, recreation of the whole nine correct and both. 579 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:38,080 Speaker 1: And I think Joe can talk to you a little 580 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,439 Speaker 1: bit about like the segmentation of our product lines, and 581 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 1: it's designed basically to meet lots of neat states for 582 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,160 Speaker 1: lots of different consumers. Yeah, we have so that that's 583 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 1: really thank you for the pitch. That's a big focus 584 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:50,639 Speaker 1: that we have. Is is really kind of it's creating 585 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 1: products are built for specific use cases. So it starts 586 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 1: with our standard Classic Gummy, and then we have our 587 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:58,679 Speaker 1: Quick Gummy, which is fast on set, fast offset. Is 588 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 1: that because it's non analogy, that's that faster than it 589 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,159 Speaker 1: is it is. But we talk a lot about you know, 590 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 1: you hear a lot about nano. You hear fast acting. 591 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,639 Speaker 1: We actually weren't the first fast acting products in the market, 592 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: but we definitely were the best where we took our time, 593 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 1: We spent two years researching, we came out of the 594 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 1: product that actually works and the markets responded to it 595 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 1: um And so you know, we have the fast acting 596 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 1: which also has a fast faster offset, which I like. Right, 597 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:23,879 Speaker 1: so it's a defined period. I know when I have 598 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 1: a quick gummy, it's going to be a two or 599 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 1: three hour experience. And then you know the right really yeah, 600 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:32,119 Speaker 1: so you actually know, really that's beautiful because it's a 601 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 1: water encapsulation technology that we use as opposed to an emulsion. 602 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 1: And so what happens is it bypasses your liver your 603 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:41,120 Speaker 1: first past metabolism. Right normally for those you don't know, 604 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 1: when you have an edible edibles on the market are 605 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 1: going to give you an eleven hydroxy experience, which means 606 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: when you ingest that you're having a delta nine your body. 607 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 1: It's it's a fat right in your body water, it 608 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 1: can't absorb it, so it sends it to your liver 609 00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 1: to get metabolized, so you can feel it when it 610 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 1: does that, your body changes it from Delta nine to 611 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 1: a new drug called eleven hydroxy. That's why the edibles 612 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: high is so different than when you smoke, when you decarboxylate, 613 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 1: when you have a pre roll, vaping, et cetera. Because 614 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 1: you're getting delta. Delta is going right in correct. There's 615 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 1: no conversion from delta into a different drug, which is 616 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 1: called the eleven hydroxy. That's why the edibles high is 617 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 1: so different. It's a totally different drug in your body, 618 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 1: and it it binds much stronger with your CB one 619 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: receptor than Delta nine does, which is why the edibles 620 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 1: experienced last five to six to seven eight hours, whereas 621 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 1: when you're smoking on a pre roll, you're basically inhaling 622 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 1: about that THHC. It's binding with your your CB one receptor, 623 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: but not as strong and so over the period of 624 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 1: you know, two or three hours, that starts to dwindle down, 625 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 1: and that's why you might talk again, if you will. 626 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 1: So with this with the one A quick line, we 627 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 1: basically with this technology, we've created now a Delta nine 628 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 1: effect within a gummy. So we have our classic line 629 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 1: which gives you the eleven hydroxy like all the other brands, 630 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 1: and then we also have a delta nine. If you 631 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: want to get a little bit closer to the plant, 632 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 1: have that which gives you the quick onset five to 633 00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 1: fifteen minutes and then gives you the quick offset three 634 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 1: to four hours. That so for us and we call 635 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 1: it the happy hour gummy. And so all of our 636 00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 1: flavors are or the acid tab, right, they're all they're 637 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:13,200 Speaker 1: all cocktail inspired flavors. Peach pellini, strawberry margarina, lemon cello, 638 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 1: apple tini. We have a Colorado or California Sunrise, and 639 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 1: so they're all these cocktail inspired flavors because it's a 640 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 1: happy hour gum. Instead of going to the bar at five, 641 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 1: having two drinks, driving home at a thirty you know, 642 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 1: have you want a quick with the same time laps, 643 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 1: period and experience. You're good by eight thirty, no hangover, 644 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 1: you don't have that grogginess the rest of the rest 645 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 1: of the day. You're all good to go. So that's 646 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 1: just one line that we've created in addition to the classic. 647 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 1: And then as you will tell you, we have some 648 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 1: other ones to know keep going ie and for what 649 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 1: are those things for? All right, So we've got basically 650 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 1: four lines. We've got our Classic, which is like our 651 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 1: eleven hydroxy which is all edibles and that includes you 652 00:30:56,360 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 1: know edibles. When I say that, gummies, brownies, cookies, even tinctures, 653 00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 1: you're getting that eleven hydroxy experience totally different high than 654 00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:06,720 Speaker 1: when you smoke. Right, So we have that classic experience. 655 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 1: We have are Quick, which is that Delta nine.

So it's uh, it is TCP 696 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: is a minor cannabin with its feature in this project. 697 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:31,680 Speaker 1: I was gonna say about it is that it's it's 698 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:33,800 Speaker 1: kind of a first of its kind because it doesn't 699 00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:35,560 Speaker 1: get you high, right, it's all through the dispensary, So 700 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 1: that's been a little bit challenge.

Why do 703 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 1: you say it's not gonna get you high? It's about 704 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 1: one milligramma, teacher, where it's actually less. That's a really 705 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 1: low dose a TC. So that has to be sold 706 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 1: then out of the dispensary because it's higher than the 707 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 1: point zero three but still low dose. So that's why 708 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 1: it's not gonna get you high. Fully get it?

What year was she like a she was 821 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:23,200 Speaker 1: she wasn't consulting and then she when they talked at all, 822 00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 1: basically went into cannabis, started doing you know, infused products, 823 00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 1: settled on the gummy and then just built the business. 824 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,080 Speaker 1: All of our expansion has basically been done through our 825 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 1: own cash flow, without any doing the rays anything like that. 826 00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:38,800 Speaker 1: So it's been grassroots, grassroots to be in the fourteen states, 827 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:40,239 Speaker 1: Like that, does that mean you guys have to have 828 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:42,279 Speaker 1: facilities in all fourteen locations? And how are you guys 829 00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:43,920 Speaker 1: able to do that? Yeah, we work with partners, So 830 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:45,880 Speaker 1: we have different partners and in each of those markets 831 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,319 Speaker 1: and in Canada as well. You guys are nine providences, right, 832 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:51,040 Speaker 1: we are. And so you guys just use a different person, 833 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:54,880 Speaker 1: they're a different entity, and they you guys use their license, 834 00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 1: your license. How does that work to be in all 835 00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:58,680 Speaker 1: those different places. Yeah, we'll see that. The challenge with cannabis, 836 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:00,560 Speaker 1: as we all know, is that it's federally legal, right, 837 00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:03,480 Speaker 1: so there's no interstate commerce. And because of that, you 838 00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 1: basically have to have a license to work in any 839 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:06,759 Speaker 1: state that you want to work in. And so we 840 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:10,000 Speaker 1: partner with with companies and organizations that have their licenses there. 841 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 1: And so we were the footprintrint. Yeah, no, I mean 842 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:19,719 Speaker 1: we can. If you just look at a map straight up, 843 00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:21,120 Speaker 1: you can start on the West coast. So just go 844 00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:24,799 Speaker 1: all the way down. You go Oregon. You've got California. Yeah, Oregon, California, 845 00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:28,120 Speaker 1: you got Arizona, you got Nevada, you've got Colorado. UM 846 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,359 Speaker 1: will be in New Mexico very soon. Bump bump over 847 00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:34,279 Speaker 1: to the Midwest and you're looking at Oklahoma. You're looking 848 00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:36,600 Speaker 1: at Missouri, UM, and you can go a little bit 849 00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:41,640 Speaker 1: south in oatt Ohio as well. UM. We got Maryland, Florida, Massachusetts. 850 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:44,920 Speaker 1: We'll be launching in Puerto Rico in a couple of 851 00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:51,120 Speaker 1: weeks Michigan. Yeah, so so so what that Bed said. 852 00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:54,440 Speaker 1: You know, um, you basically set the standard, give them 853 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:57,920 Speaker 1: the recipe and then and margins and and create margins 854 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:00,480 Speaker 1: or is it a licensing. It varies, And there's really 855 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,239 Speaker 1: two ways to approach these market. You could you could 856 00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:04,560 Speaker 1: do your own license and build your own facility, and 857 00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:06,799 Speaker 1: some companies do that. We want the asset light route 858 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:09,160 Speaker 1: because we have really strong s ops and so the 859 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 1: reason we can do this is strong stops means that 860 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:14,120 Speaker 1: they can create a product that is identical to our 861 00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:17,840 Speaker 1: product in Colorado. And we leverage things like a Tirpine 862 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 1: mix that is thirty plus blends of terpenes that allows 863 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:25,520 Speaker 1: us to then replicate Indicasativa or Hybrid in every market 864 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:27,879 Speaker 1: the rim because it's the exact same blend for each 865 00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:30,400 Speaker 1: of the markets. So we have a really strong So 866 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:34,800 Speaker 1: they're using your formula correct every time though, They's important 867 00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:38,719 Speaker 1: that creates the consistency across market. So if I by 868 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:42,000 Speaker 1: one thing from Wanna in California, I'm gonna taste the 869 00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:46,880 Speaker 1: same thing in Colorado than You're gonna have the same effect. 870 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,279 Speaker 1: Because for us, the effect is the most important thing. 871 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:51,800 Speaker 1: Taste is obviously important, but cannabis is all about effect 872 00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 1: is how does it make you feel? And that's the 873 00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:56,400 Speaker 1: question I think you stand. They're asking themselves with everything 874 00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:58,480 Speaker 1: that they do, and you're saying that effect is because 875 00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:01,760 Speaker 1: of the chirpine profile, the thirty interpreting profile that you've designed. 876 00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:05,680 Speaker 1: So great question, and are you guys growing the same 877 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:08,960 Speaker 1: cannabis from no or not? Right? Because the majority of 878 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,680 Speaker 1: our lines, like pretty much of all gummies, are distill 879 00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:14,320 Speaker 1: it based. Right when you're doing the extraction, you're stripping 880 00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:17,400 Speaker 1: everything away. What Wanta does differently than everybody else is 881 00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:20,520 Speaker 1: that we essentially went pheno hunting here in California and 882 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:23,360 Speaker 1: we basically found strains chemo bars that we liked in 883 00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 1: either the different classes in the Kausativa and hybrid. We 884 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:28,000 Speaker 1: then identify them, took them to our partner that's a 885 00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:30,400 Speaker 1: California based company. They have the only three D chromatography 886 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:33,240 Speaker 1: machine in North America. We mapped out the entire turpine 887 00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:35,759 Speaker 1: profiles of those strains that we like, and then we're 888 00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:39,040 Speaker 1: basically reintroducing those same typing profiles, not just three or 889 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:40,960 Speaker 1: four or five turpines like majority of brands might be 890 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 1: doing we're actually doing thirty plus with the major, the minor, 891 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:47,720 Speaker 1: and the trace tirpins in the same concentration and levels 892 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,719 Speaker 1: that they are native in those actual profiles. So that's 893 00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:52,680 Speaker 1: how we're trying to basically replicate as much as we 894 00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:56,800 Speaker 1: can using a distillate product the plant and specific profiles 895 00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:00,880 Speaker 1: of of strains. Eric, you have been so grabbing my 896 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:03,799 Speaker 1: attention every time you talk about wanna. I mean you're 897 00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:07,880 Speaker 1: getting Yeah, I gotta. I just want to phrase you 898 00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:11,680 Speaker 1: and applaud you because I'm looking at you and talk 899 00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:15,400 Speaker 1: and I didn't go and I feel you're both of 900 00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:17,919 Speaker 1: you guys.

Yeah, but Joe, I, how about this? 902 00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:23,239 Speaker 1: You ready for this? All bullshit aside, Joe, I didn't 903 00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:26,200 Speaker 1: expect and all because ready for the simple reason why 904 00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:27,840 Speaker 1: I expected to be this good Because I didn't have 905 00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:29,880 Speaker 1: enough research on him to see how policy was as 906 00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:32,160 Speaker 1: a person and want to get into shops LinkedIn and 907 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 1: all the research I fast standing online, I couldn't see 908 00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:36,880 Speaker 1: it on you, and so I kind of, Oh, who's 909 00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:38,400 Speaker 1: this guy. It's funny he's coming there. It's been with 910 00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:40,279 Speaker 1: a couple a few years. But they're standing there for 911 00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:43,760 Speaker 1: a reason obviously, right. But my point is I didn't 912 00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:47,160 Speaker 1: expect what you're doing, bottom line, you know, and you 913 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:49,040 Speaker 1: know we we appreciate you guys having a song.

You know, our packaging is 929 00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 1: sustainable packaging, it's recyclable. You'd be resistant. So we're trying 930 00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:36,000 Speaker 1: to want this Lady is a beast. Yeah, what's her name? 931 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:40,600 Speaker 1: Nancy white Man?

I'm going the world just 933 00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:45,360 Speaker 1: because you guys are killing it so hard and everything 934 00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:48,080 Speaker 1: that this company is doing. I love. I like how 935 00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:50,200 Speaker 1: you guys are speaking about it, the videos over there 936 00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:52,560 Speaker 1: that are showing things, which is proof of what they're 937 00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:55,640 Speaker 1: edible does compared to most other edibles. And he even says, 938 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 1: because if I'm not mistaken by going off the thing 939 00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:00,719 Speaker 1: I want, it's water and so double or something that 940 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,880 Speaker 1: he used, it's water selluble mix that he's using in 941 00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:07,840 Speaker 1: your guys freestyling. But no, but he's pointing out how 942 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:11,040 Speaker 1: most edibles don't just use that. Most edibles use other 943 00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:14,600 Speaker 1: things that create the melting effects. The oil based basically 944 00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:17,520 Speaker 1: created and he proves it by showing it in this video. 945 00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:19,720 Speaker 1: So once you can go to the website. The melting 946 00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:21,680 Speaker 1: pieces actually the peckton because we use pectins. We have 947 00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:23,560 Speaker 1: vegan gummies, right, so we don't use gelatin. We use 948 00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 1: packed in which has a much higher temperature gas. Yeah, 949 00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:29,719 Speaker 1: I got confused on what I was hearing of hy 950 00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:31,239 Speaker 1: and everything else. But my point is go see that. 951 00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:35,360 Speaker 1: You guys are phenomenal representing the brand. What's next?

So we're 960 00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:02,720 Speaker 1: doing a live rosin first press premium live rosin gummy 961 00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:06,600 Speaker 1: utilizing the same quake technology. So it's gonna be it's 962 00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:10,080 Speaker 1: the first and only really DEALTA nine live rosin gummy. 963 00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:13,239 Speaker 1: On the most it's a live rosin gummy. Yeah, so 964 00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:17,640 Speaker 1: it's not it's rosin is it inside that?

And the same science guy who you 967 00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 1: know we were talking about, Mike, he's been he's managed 968 00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:34,759 Speaker 1: to match flavor profiles with the strain and turpin specificity 969 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:37,720 Speaker 1: of those strains, so that the flavor. It's just amazing 970 00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:39,120 Speaker 1: because you get you get to flavor of the plant, 971 00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:41,279 Speaker 1: but you also get, dude, the really good flavors to 972 00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:44,760 Speaker 1: go with it, like gummy watermelon slushy flavor and tropical 973 00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:48,840 Speaker 1: citrus flavor.

Sometimes sometimes you know, 975 00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:55,439 Speaker 1: I mean depending on the times. Well, there's been times 976 00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:56,879 Speaker 1: where I'm like, oh my god, that was a little 977 00:46:57,200 --> 00:46:59,880 Speaker 1: you know, if it's hashy, like there's a bad aftertaste, 978 00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:05,320 Speaker 1: it's not good. Right, This is like, yeah, yeah, I 979 00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:08,160 Speaker 1: can't wait to try that. That That to me is 980 00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:11,960 Speaker 1: actually I've never heard anybody do a live rosin gummy. Yeah, 981 00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:14,560 Speaker 1: they're around. There's well there's there's there's some live ros 982 00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:17,000 Speaker 1: and gummies. There's a lot of just rosin gummies, right, 983 00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:18,840 Speaker 1: which is a little bit different than live rosin. And 984 00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:21,839 Speaker 1: then there's not really any first press live rosin. They're 985 00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:23,759 Speaker 1: using the first press that are coming out, you know, 986 00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:26,880 Speaker 1: the partner that we have that sourcing it, they're basically 987 00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:28,880 Speaker 1: selling their live rosin, you know, for sixty bucks a 988 00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:31,800 Speaker 1: graham essentially, and that's the same rosin we're using libras 989 00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:34,520 Speaker 1: that we're using as our input, so quality, we're using 990 00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:38,000 Speaker 1: the quick technology again water encapsulated. So then again this 991 00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:40,239 Speaker 1: is gonna be the only delta nine. This is the 992 00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:42,480 Speaker 1: closest to the plant you can get. And what are 993 00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:44,279 Speaker 1: some of those difference though, Eric, or are you even 994 00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:47,520 Speaker 1: Joe elaborate like when you say different between live rosin 995 00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:50,840 Speaker 1: and regular rosin, what are the effects are the differences 996 00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:54,120 Speaker 1: that one may experience or the difference that you said, No, 997 00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:57,560 Speaker 1: that's different, to use your words, live rosin is different 998 00:47:57,560 --> 00:48:00,839 Speaker 1: than the rosin. What are those differences? That's a great question. 999 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:03,920 Speaker 1: So for us, live rosin is basically as soon as 1000 00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:07,239 Speaker 1: the plant is ready to harvest, basing your freezing it 1001 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:10,000 Speaker 1: right there. Um, what other companies will use is they 1002 00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:12,279 Speaker 1: want to actually use the same buds from the same 1003 00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:15,280 Speaker 1: from the same plant. They'll use some trim from other plants, 1004 00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:18,040 Speaker 1: mixing it together and then create the rosin. Right, you 1005 00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:19,960 Speaker 1: put it in an ice water bucket, you make the 1006 00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:22,600 Speaker 1: hash separating the tric coombs, and then you're basically putting 1007 00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:26,839 Speaker 1: it between two metal presses. He presses, that's pressing out. Well, 1008 00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:30,000 Speaker 1: this is the lives it can be rosin too. The 1009 00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:32,360 Speaker 1: difference between the live rosin, and the rosin is basically 1010 00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:34,680 Speaker 1: the flower and which flower you're using, and if you're 1011 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:37,640 Speaker 1: using from different harvests or using from one specific strain, 1012 00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:39,960 Speaker 1: if you're using buds and the nice fresh buds, or 1013 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:43,400 Speaker 1: using trim, etcetera. So we're using basically the first press 1014 00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:45,960 Speaker 1: from just the straight buds and tricomes that are coming in, 1015 00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:48,320 Speaker 1: pressing out right away and using that as the input. 1016 00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:50,360 Speaker 1: It's also the wet, the wet frozen piece of that 1017 00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:53,120 Speaker 1: right so you when you freeze it immediately after harvest, 1018 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:56,920 Speaker 1: that makes a difference exactly. So you're using everything from 1019 00:48:56,960 --> 00:48:59,400 Speaker 1: that pole plant right there. You froze that right now, 1020 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:02,600 Speaker 1: that's the rosin because that's everything. We didn't grab something 1021 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:05,760 Speaker 1: else from something mouse. We're just using one one thing exactly. 1022 00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:07,760 Speaker 1: And you're taking that putting it right into the bucket, 1023 00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:09,839 Speaker 1: the ice bucket once it's frozen, and then you're moving 1024 00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:12,319 Speaker 1: in around and you're separating the trick combs, pulling those out, 1025 00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:15,000 Speaker 1: and then that ends up becoming the input for the rosin. 1026 00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:18,360 Speaker 1: How many stories he isn't you know? So? We I 1027 00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:22,319 Speaker 1: mean you mean across all our markets? Yeah, over three 1028 00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:25,839 Speaker 1: thousand stores, are you guys?

You know, yeah, live, Yeah, 1255 01:01:00,520 --> 01:01:02,760 Speaker 1: mine's not gonna sound so original. But you ask for truth, 1256 01:01:02,800 --> 01:01:04,160 Speaker 1: so I'm gonna give you truth. It would be the 1257 01:01:04,240 --> 01:01:08,880 Speaker 1: prophet Bob Marley. Without see, he was gonna say, Bob Marley, 1258 01:01:08,960 --> 01:01:14,040 Speaker 1: he got out easy, you know. Okay. The good thing 1259 01:01:14,120 --> 01:01:16,920 Speaker 1: is we never heard your guy. That's why I like 1260 01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:18,640 Speaker 1: it because we never heard it. And Bob is a 1261 01:01:19,200 --> 01:01:21,800 Speaker 1: a reason I can choose. Blue can choose anybody listening. 1262 01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:23,760 Speaker 1: You can choose. What is your choice? Eric or why 1263 01:01:23,840 --> 01:01:26,480 Speaker 1: Bob Man? I mean, he's a prophet if you listen 1264 01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:28,400 Speaker 1: to his lyrics. And you know, if if you spend 1265 01:01:28,400 --> 01:01:30,360 Speaker 1: any time in Jamaica, you're gonna know what a special 1266 01:01:30,400 --> 01:01:32,880 Speaker 1: place it is. Small little Island. Man comes from st 1267 01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:36,400 Speaker 1: Anne's white father, black mother. And you go anywhere in 1268 01:01:36,400 --> 01:01:38,960 Speaker 1: the world, people are listening to Bob's music. You go anyway, 1269 01:01:38,960 --> 01:01:41,320 Speaker 1: they know the lyrics, even places wherever speak English, obviously 1270 01:01:41,600 --> 01:01:44,320 Speaker 1: they know the music. They feel it. There's something, I mean, 1271 01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:46,960 Speaker 1: like he speaks the natural mystic, there's something in beneath 1272 01:01:47,040 --> 01:01:49,200 Speaker 1: the invisible as we like. Let me ask you where 1273 01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:51,480 Speaker 1: you got induced to Bob Marley music, because that's always 1274 01:01:51,480 --> 01:01:53,480 Speaker 1: a spiritual time in everyone's life. If you really think 1275 01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:55,840 Speaker 1: about what I just asked him, and ask yourself that question. 1276 01:01:56,240 --> 01:01:58,600 Speaker 1: Every time you got introduced to Bob Marley music, it 1277 01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:00,640 Speaker 1: was a spiritual moment. So where do you get introduced 1278 01:02:00,720 --> 01:02:04,120 Speaker 1: Bob so introduced? The first time I heard it, obviously 1279 01:02:04,160 --> 01:02:06,240 Speaker 1: would be growing up. The first time that I consciously 1280 01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:08,240 Speaker 1: became aware of like the connection had would be when 1281 01:02:08,240 --> 01:02:09,960 Speaker 1: I was living in Brazil. And then obviously, once you 1282 01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:13,560 Speaker 1: start living in the Caribbean, funny, then you understand, like 1283 01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:16,200 Speaker 1: really understand exactly what he's singing about. And the reason 1284 01:02:16,240 --> 01:02:18,040 Speaker 1: why I say that is when I got introduced to 1285 01:02:18,080 --> 01:02:19,760 Speaker 1: Bobba's when I was overseas as well. I was in 1286 01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:22,240 Speaker 1: Wales and I was with these cats from Trinidad, and 1287 01:02:22,320 --> 01:02:25,200 Speaker 1: we sang the Redemption Song together and he taught me 1288 01:02:25,240 --> 01:02:28,080 Speaker 1: the Redemption song. I knew about Marley, heard about Marley, 1289 01:02:28,160 --> 01:02:30,840 Speaker 1: listened to Bob Marley, never learned the Redemption Song. But 1290 01:02:31,360 --> 01:02:35,880 Speaker 1: they're at this retreat in Wales, London, sitting on rocks 1291 01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:40,320 Speaker 1: looking at the ocean with his guitar stringing, going, oh pirates, 1292 01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:46,560 Speaker 1: Yes they Robbi so I from the merchant Ship. Yes, 1293 01:02:46,760 --> 01:02:54,160 Speaker 1: you know what I'm talking about. Minutes after. So my 1294 01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:57,400 Speaker 1: point is Boba's a spiritual cat. I agree one thousand 1295 01:02:57,480 --> 01:03:00,120 Speaker 1: percent because when everyone says it, I don't say this 1296 01:03:00,200 --> 01:03:05,040 Speaker 1: story often I go there sause none but ourselves can 1297 01:03:05,160 --> 01:03:10,560 Speaker 1: free our minds. There's no energy because none of them 1298 01:03:10,680 --> 01:03:13,120 Speaker 1: can't stop the time. Think about what he's saying. Then 1299 01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:15,320 Speaker 1: that's current right the second. That's why he's the prophet. 1300 01:03:15,840 --> 01:03:20,600 Speaker 1: He was channeling that song that we're just reminiscing too. 1301 01:03:20,800 --> 01:03:25,040 Speaker 1: He's channeling. He's channeling consciousness.
