Speaker 1: the tenth, and tomorrow is gonna be nine eleven. I

36
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: just like to always think and reminiscent. You know, it

37
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 1: makes me think of when I was a kid, when

38
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,640
Speaker 1: John F. Kennedy passed and got shots. You know, my

39
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,920
Speaker 1: mom and I always hearing her friends talk about where

40
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,919
Speaker 1: were you? And JFK was shot? And maybe Craig and Mark,

41
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 1: you guys can relate to that. And also you blew

42
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 1: with your mom, and I know your mom's might be

43
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 1: a little younger than than mine was, but that was

44
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: like a big conversation. I always remember them talking about,

45
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: like when they were playing cards and barbecues. It always

46
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 1: would get brought up, as so does nine eleven as

47
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: we look at nine eleven tomorrow, going dude, where were

48
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 1: you on nine eleven? So I'm just so curious because

49
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 1: probably Craig, you're the oldest, and you're gonna be the

50
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,359
Speaker 1: first one gone? Where were you on nine eleven? The

51
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: first one gone? Did you hear that? Crass? Amanda? Are

52
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 1: you back there? I just I mean, Joe, I was.

53
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 1: I was at home, just chilling at home. It was

54
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 1: at home, getting ready to go to work, if I'm

55
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,680
Speaker 1: not mistaken, And all of a sudden on the news

56
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,839
Speaker 1: you see the ship, the first airplane, and then oh

57
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: my god, the second airplane, and yeah, I was home.

58
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 1: Did you have an emotional roller coaster? Did it hit?

59
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: Because you're making it sound like it's no big deal

60
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,639
Speaker 1: for right, now. I mean, there's no emotion behind your

61
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 1: whole little I was at home. Was it home? You asked? Deal?

62
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: I mean, how did it feel for you? I mean

63
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,519
Speaker 1: when you reflect back on nine eleven, I was at home,

64
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 1: the ruined my day. I don't think the initial of course,

65
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,079
Speaker 1: the initial reaction was just wasn't. Oh my god? I mean,

66
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 1: I'm not. I don't know, I don't know. I actually

Speaker 1: I was watching that. I was getting education, this is

84
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:32,920

85
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: moment for most people obviously not for you. True story,

86
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: no true story here. And uh, I was I was watching.

87
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 1: I was watching the movie though, and at the house

88
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 1: and and then uh, you know, someone came running in

89
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,039
Speaker 1: the house. Was like, dude, put on the news. You know,

90
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 1: something's going down, blah blah blah. And what movie were

91
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 1: you watching? Really in the morning. I don't remember the movie,

92
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 1: but I'll tell you what happened though, is I remember

93
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: flipping it from that movie to the to the uh

94
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:03,039
Speaker 1: to the to the news. And we thought it was

95
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 1: a um, just an airline that was, you know, a

96
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: plane was going down. We didn't think it was an

97
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: actual attack or anything like that. We We literally just thought,

98
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,039
Speaker 1: oh my god, there, you know, this plane just got

99
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 1: low and or was it was gonna crash and it

100
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 1: hit up, it hit up, you know, a tower. We

101
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 1: didn't think that it you know, it was some kind

102
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: of an attack. But then once the second one hit,

103
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: that was when the panic in my life started kind

104
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 1: of hitting me because I was like, holy sh it,

105
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 1: like this is you know, there's no accident, Like it

106
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 1: wasn't an accident. There's two of them hitting. Now they

107
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 1: started talking about, you know, was this terrorists or what

108
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 1: what kind of a an event this was? And hijackings.

109
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 1: You started hearing about the hijackings and everything else, and

110
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 1: I think, you know, for me, it was more like

111
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 1: a panic. You know, I started getting very panicked because

112
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,479
Speaker 1: I felt like, God, what's next, you know, is it

113
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 1: gonna hit l A, Is it gonna you know, are

114
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,159
Speaker 1: we gonna be attacked as well? You know, it went

115
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 1: my mind went into to you know, uh, obviously you

116
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,600
Speaker 1: don't start I didn't start thinking, oh my god, the

117
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 1: people in there. I started thinking about, oh my god,

118
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,279
Speaker 1: we're all going to get attacked. We're all being attacked.

119
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,559
Speaker 1: And then and then I started thinking about the people

120
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 1: that were that were that have lost their lives in this,

121
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 1: and very emotional. You know. I got to to to

122
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: a point where I think I pretty much almost cried,

123
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,720
Speaker 1: you know, for probably about fifteen minutes because I was

124
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: really when I started seeing like people on the streets

125
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,600
Speaker 1: and there, and they had they had stuff all over

126
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 1: them and stuff, and I'm thinking, gosh, and they were

127
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 1: talking about how many people were in the building, were

128
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,599
Speaker 1: guessing that was about you know, three or five hundred

129
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,480
Speaker 1: people in the building or something like that. Started guessing,

130
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 1: you know, and I started going, Oh my God. And

131
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: I could almost feel the souls crying across the country,

132
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like I really did. I

133
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 1: felt this whole you know, feeling of just Jesus, this

134
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,719
Speaker 1: is this is really happening right now. And um, you

135
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:54,160
Speaker 1: know I cried. I literally I remember crying about excuse me,

136
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 1: I was one of my my blunt, you know, I

137
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: know my blunt, I said, my blunt, and I was

138
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 1: talking about my weed. I was with my weed. No. Um,

139
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 1: were you with Chelsea at the time, you know, two

140
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: thousand one? No? Probably probably not then, you know that. Yeah, yeah,

141
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: if you could go to check back twenty what are

142
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 1: we in twenty years ago? Now? Um? But but I'll

143
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 1: tell you though, you know, one thought that I I

144
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 1: really I want to say is that, you know, there

145
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: were so many families that were affected by it, you know,

146
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: and then and then I thought about two It's just like,

147
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 1: you know, how about those people that that actually that

148
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 1: called in sick that day, that that didn't go you know,

149
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: and that that we're just by luck not there, you know,

150
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 1: or the guy that was just going to deliver food,

151
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 1: or or that had never been there it was his

152
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: first time being there. You know, so many emotions I

153
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 1: think went through my head um and just to reflect

154
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 1: back and to send my condolences out, you know, to

155
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 1: all the emilies and and that were affected by this,

156
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 1: and and all the beautiful lives that were taking It's

157
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 1: just a horrific uh moment in our in our time,

158
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 1: and I'm glad we're talking about it. I mean, like

159
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 1: you said, twenty years anniversary, Mark, where were you at?

160
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 1: Do you remember? I will never forget because I was

161
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 1: in the hospital. When I was in the hospital the

162
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: night before on September ten, I was at my girlfriend's

163
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 1: house that night and I was washing dishes and I

164
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 1: was cleaning a big wine glass and it broke in

165
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 1: my hand and I ended up severing a nerve in

166
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 1: my hand, and so I don't have feeling in these

167
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,960
Speaker 1: two fingers. And when it happened, it was the blood

168
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 1: was everywhere. A nerve, I cut a vein, and it

169
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 1: was just everywhere, and I had to go to hospital

170
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 1: and I was in there overnight, and when I was

171
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 1: woke up in the morning, my girlfriend was there and

172
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 1: the TVs people were in the the lobbies like, oh

173
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 1: my god, oh my I ruined six six six, Oh

174
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 1: my god, oh my god. And then the weirdest thing

175
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 1: for me and my girlfriend a week before that, she

176
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: was there at the top of the twin towers visiting

177
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 1: her her friend one week before that. So we're kidding me. No,

178
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 1: that was the people that that essentially, like I said,

179
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 1: like that they almost dodged that bullet by not being

180
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 1: there or were scheduled to be there because there was

181
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 1: a lot of people and they ended up being on

182
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 1: investigation because they weren't there, right, So, you know, if

183
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 1: you were supposed to schedule to be there because you

184
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:38,960
Speaker 1: were sick that day and you did, or you had

185
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 1: to go to the hospital or something happened, it was like,

186
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,079
Speaker 1: why didn't Why weren't you there that day? You know

187
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 1: those people, you know, that's like splitting hairs and they're

188
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: always going to remember that, like, you know, how's you

189
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: guys remember that mark? What are you gonna say? I

190
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,720
Speaker 1: know there's people who I know of who like missed

191
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:57,319
Speaker 1: that flight for whatever reason. Right, they missed the flight

192
00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 1: that went down? Those what were there's three flights that

193
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,320
Speaker 1: were supposed to be on it, right, you know there's

194
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 1: there's lots of those stories. I saw something posted today

195
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 1: that that Seth McFarlane and Kevin hart were supposed to

196
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 1: have tickets on one of those planes and their plans

197
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,840
Speaker 1: changed for what. Oh, Seth McFarlane was late because he

198
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,680
Speaker 1: was hungover. I read no social media posts. The best

199
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 1: thing that ever happened to him, right drunk that night

200
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 1: and not making that flight. Yeah, Kevin Hart you said

201
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,839
Speaker 1: as well too, or I think I saw that post. Yeah,

202
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,599
Speaker 1: it was Seth McFarland, Kevin Hartley. Yeah, it's one of

203
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,079
Speaker 1: those moments as we celebrate nine eleven and reflect. I

204
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 1: will never forget being on the radio at Power one

205
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 1: oh six broadcasting in Los Angeles, and I know Chris

206
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,319
Speaker 1: Frankino said he was ironically said he listened to that.

207
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 1: That's how he found out listening to the show that day, Right,

208
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 1: that's what shame. Yeah, I was driving to work, uh,

209
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 1: and I'll never forget. Yeah, Big Boy was talking about

210
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:48,719
Speaker 1: in the morning show and it was kind of like,

211
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 1: is it serious? Is this is this serious? And I

212
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 1: think even you guys were talking about like is this serious?

213
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 1: It's like is this real? And then pulling up to

214
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:56,960
Speaker 1: the to work and everyone's just kind of sitting there

215
00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: around the TV. Yeah, And then when that second plane hit,

216
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 1: it was like, oh ship. Well. I remember sitting there

217
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 1: watching the first one hit, you guys, and I was

218
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 1: one of the first ones in the room that I

219
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 1: was at was me, Big Fuzzy and Jason, our producer,

220
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 1: and DJ E Man, And I remember going, you guys,

221
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 1: I have a feeling this whole building is gonna come

222
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,559
Speaker 1: to right. How in the hell are they going to

223
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 1: get all these firemen up there with some hoses to

224
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 1: stop this fucking plane from blowing up this building? I

225
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,439
Speaker 1: remember thinking that that was the first one of my

226
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 1: first random thoughts before the second plane hit it because

227
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 1: it didn't come down fast enough. But my thought was,

228
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 1: how can they prevent this from exploding? Like a plane,

229
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 1: A big plane just ran into a building and didn't

230
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:42,080
Speaker 1: come out. This plane has tons of gasoline on it.

231
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 1: This is one of my logic was at the time thinking,

232
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,440
Speaker 1: and I'm like, this thing's gonna blow up that whole

233
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 1: twin tower, like one of them. That's when I first thought.

234
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 1: And I was like, and this was of course, before

235
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:53,960
Speaker 1: I thought it was terrorists. I thought it was just

236
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 1: some random act of one of these planes, like when

237
00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 1: the Hutton plane. You know, there's been other stories of

238
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 1: situations in New York that we've heard about through life,

239
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 1: of planes falling in this and that. I mean just

240
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 1: in the river and this and that, you know, But

241
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 1: I was like, this is this is odd? Is this

242
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 1: couldn't be terror Then you know, we're watching the news

243
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,319
Speaker 1: and to think that I was one of the news

244
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 1: outlets that was doing it was even weirder because we

245
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 1: were constantly monitoring everything to try to get the most

246
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,200
Speaker 1: information out. And at the time, you know, we're just

247
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 1: on every computer watching CNN, fire everything, everything and reporting

248
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 1: it back in Our audience was millions of listeners that

249
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 1: looked at us to give the information. So our phone

250
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,560
Speaker 1: lines are going crazy. Our boss is in there. Before

251
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 1: you know it, Jimmy Steele is not a clue with

252
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,839
Speaker 1: the program director. He's in there. Everyone's hands on deck,

253
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 1: resource resources looking looking at them. With that other plane hit,

254
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 1: it was just like game over, Oh this is terrorists now,

255
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 1: and you can hear big and you guys just oh

256
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 1: my god. And you can hear the terriorty. We were

257
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 1: on live when it happened. We were on live. Oh

258
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 1: my god, it's going into the next one right now.

259
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: You're right. It's something that's funny, Chris, that you say

260
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 1: that you listen to us, because I get that back

261
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:04,079
Speaker 1: sometimes in life, people going to do it. I heard,

262
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 1: I remember listening to you guys when eleven happened. So

263
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,959
Speaker 1: it's another moment when we reflect back at nine eleven

264
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 1: for me personally, like random people will say exactly what

265
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 1: you said. Oh dude, I was listening to you guys

266
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 1: on Power one oh six. So just a reflection as

267
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 1: tomorrow is that big day when we come back. We've

268
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 1: got some I gotta go Green story and I know

269
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 1: Blue Haus making waves. It's Cannabis Talk one on one.

270
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 1: And thank you to all the firemen out there and

271
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,320
Speaker 1: all the course first everyone the people that go there.

272
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 1: And it's one of those things like personally I do

273
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: every night with my kids. You know, I'm a prayer

274
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,720
Speaker 1: with my kids, and I literally played prey for firemen

275
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: and police officers because of that event. Like I never

276
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 1: used to before. I always liked fireman just because off GP, like,

277
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 1: you know, firemen come to help you. Cops have been

278
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 1: a little suspect on here and there, but I never

279
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,199
Speaker 1: prayed for them, you know, I'm saying, just keeping it

280
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 1: one after that event, prayed for cops and firemen like

281
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:56,839
Speaker 1: all of time. So it's cannabis talk one on one.

282
00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:08,840
Speaker 1: We'll be right back after this. Welcome back, Welcome back guys. Um.

283
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 1: You know a little heavy heart right now, Yeah, you know, listen,

284
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, it's one of those things that

285
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 1: that really hits you at home when you start thinking

286
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 1: about it and again and you know, think about all

287
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 1: the people in those flights, you know, and just just

288
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 1: just there's so many everybody. Just think about everyboy who

289
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 1: talk what country was shocked and it still is. And

290
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 1: and again there's there's not a person out there that

291
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 1: that can't. I mean, every one of us should be,

292
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 1: you know, thinking tomorrow is the day that we need to,

293
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 1: you know, pay some faces. Well twenty years but now

294
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 1: what's going on in Afghanistan and this and that, and

295
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 1: it just makes me think of more and more terrorists

296
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 1: acts that could possibly potentially be happening on American soil.

297
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,440
Speaker 1: And you know, and I think of the terrorist acts

298
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 1: that happened on American soil that don't get called terrorists

299
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: acts because they're happening by Americans. So those are the

300
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 1: ones that I think of. Two. So it's just, you know,

301
00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: it's just crazy. But God bless those who's making ways

309
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 1: Maps have teamed up Guys NBA player Kevin Durant and

310
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 1: weed Maps announced a new partnership last week that they

311
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 1: will make Basketball Star online cannabis community talk about cannabis more.

312
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 1: They're gonna they stigmatized cannabis guys. Not only is this great,

313
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 1: but for those who don't know, Kevin Durant has his

314
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 1: hands in a bunch of random cannabis companies that's been

315
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 1: low key and hush hush for a minute. And I

316
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 1: believe he's been using cannabis too for a while, but

317
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 1: he's very low key and hush hush about it. I

318
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 1: think when you get a big superstar like this, I mean,

319
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,080
Speaker 1: let's just face these bounced from team to team, one

320
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 1: NBA titles. He's one NBA m v P s. He's

321
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 1: a stud and for him to do something like this,

322
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 1: I think it's a great look for cannabis. Well, he

323
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 1: did go on so so to add to that is

324
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 1: he went on the e S. He went on ESPN

325
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 1: the other day and said, you know, it's time to

326
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 1: normalize the conversation. And you know, that made me think

327
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 1: because going on to you know, uh, ESPN is big

328
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 1: and talking about it, and he says we need to normally,

329
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 1: we need to normalize the conversation and start talking about

330
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 1: athletes and cannabis because there's so much value in it

331
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 1: and there's a lot of people are missing the value.

332
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,280
Speaker 1: And he's noticing that some of these leagues are starting

333
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 1: to pull back their regulations and their testings and things

334
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 1: like that, but still the conversation isn't really being talked about.

335
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 1: So by teaming up with weed Maps and the Pop

336
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,320
Speaker 1: Brothers at Law owned Weed maps. We all know that,

337
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,240
Speaker 1: so right, correct? How long have you guys been the owners?

338
00:16:56,840 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 1: About years? Yeah? Okay, okay, cool? Yeah, so so so

339
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 1: you know, there's a rumor out there that they own

340
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 1: it's been around for years. But but I think that

341
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,879
Speaker 1: the thought is is that you know, you know, having

342
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 1: the Boardroom, he's working with Boardroom Media Network UM which

343
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 1: is it? Which is UH and then which is part

344
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 1: of his company, and they're they're basically building this whole

345
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:23,000
Speaker 1: idea of throwing events, UH, community outreach UM and and

346
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 1: making sure that they have athletes coming out in on

347
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 1: ESPN and companies like Fox and bigger, bigger networks in

348
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 1: order to start talking about cannabis. And I think it's

349
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 1: it's it's a necessity right now in the cannabis, I

350
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 1: mean in the sports industry to start moving that that

351
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:41,959
Speaker 1: ball forward. What do you think, Joe? I think not

352
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:46,199
Speaker 1: only him, but the Truth former NBA star ESPN basketball

353
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:50,480
Speaker 1: analyst Paul Pierce also known as the Truth from Los Angeles,

354
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,199
Speaker 1: Which is funny because I like Paul Pierce, but I

355
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 1: don't because he was a Celtics and I'm such a

356
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:56,800
Speaker 1: Laker fan, but I like the cat Anyways, so it's

357
00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:58,440
Speaker 1: a kind of a catch twenty two, especially when he

358
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 1: went in that fucking wheelchair and he did that stunt

359
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 1: and came back and spanked the Lakers. Anyhow, that's my

360
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:06,600
Speaker 1: remember that if you know what I'm talking about, you

361
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about. My point is behind as

362
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,919
Speaker 1: you're saying everything about Kevin Durant, Paul Pierce was just

363
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 1: in Boston over the weekend and he was in a

364
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 1: bunch of dispensaries promoting his new line, Truth Number thirty

365
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 1: four cannabis brand. So you know, not only do you

366
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,199
Speaker 1: have Kevin Durant doing that, you have Paul Pierce that

367
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,359
Speaker 1: was just uh known to be doing it. And we

368
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,160
Speaker 1: talked about Paul Pierce's I mentioned it to Go Green

369
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 1: segmental while back. But he's literally out after dispensary's slapping hands,

370
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 1: kissing babies, saying what's up. I'm out here at this

371
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 1: at this dispensary. And he's got some troubles when he

372
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 1: got let go from ESPN recently. But the point to

373
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:44,720
Speaker 1: your point is normalizing it being out there and talking

374
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:49,359
Speaker 1: about it being a huge sports icon. Granted, Paul Pierce

375
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 1: has retired, Kevin Durant is active. Those are two different,

376
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 1: you know, type of players. Kevin Durant tos are a

377
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,440
Speaker 1: couple of gold medals from the Olympics. So he's a

378
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:02,080
Speaker 1: former Olympian. I mean he's not only just a basketball player,

379
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 1: but he's you know, doing all these things. So it's

380
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 1: about this ship forever. Well, they're also it takes take

381
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:13,399
Speaker 1: these guys to finally make the conversation move forward and

382
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:15,440
Speaker 1: for everything. You ready for this, even when you look

383
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,440
Speaker 1: at one of the most influential you're such an asshole.

384
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 1: One of the one of the thoughts es seriously that

385
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 1: one of the thoughts that he brought to the table was, Uh,

386
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 1: Shakary Richardson, right, Shaky Shakari Shakari Shakari Richardson was denied

387
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:35,159
Speaker 1: of the Winter Olympics. And you know, and this is

388
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,680
Speaker 1: an outrage. I mean, this is something that you know

389
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 1: that that we talked about, that whole thing, but it's

390
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 1: but it's based on old it's all old, outdated uh

391
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,320
Speaker 1: beliefs and and that that are that are coming to

392
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,439
Speaker 1: for for wishing and need to be corrected. And I

393
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:56,000
Speaker 1: think that that's the thing. It's old, outdated. You know, Uh,

394
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,920
Speaker 1: people that are talking about this and it's just the

395
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,159
Speaker 1: flat out lies is what says it about the plant.

396
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,199
Speaker 1: I'm just wondering what weed maps and Kevin Durant and

397
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 1: what he got for that, because that's a big push,

398
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 1: like what who at your PR department did you guys

399
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 1: get and how did you guys get Kevin Durant? Washerman's

400
00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 1: Well that was that was actually we have to give

401
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:19,119
Speaker 1: it two weeks. Yeah, we had a phone we had

402
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:27,719
Speaker 1: was how did they do CEOs? I wanted to come

403
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,440
Speaker 1: over to my company. It was Chris Beale's of weed Math.

404
00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 1: Is that why last week? Mark, you gave me Kevin's

405
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 1: email information to hit him up? Yeah, No, that was KG,

406
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 1: not k D. That's try. Kevin Garnett is KG, and

407
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 1: Kevin Garnett has his cannabis brand as well he's working on.

408
00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:48,239
Speaker 1: I just think it's great that all these guys come

409
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,360
Speaker 1: out and talk about it. I mean, you know, it's

410
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 1: just around another football player this past week and we're

411
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:57,000
Speaker 1: ironically we're talking about cannabis but he does not use it,

412
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,639
Speaker 1: and he's a former football player in the NFL and

413
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 1: you know he actually played with Kyle Turley and we're

414
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:05,919
Speaker 1: referencing how more and more athletes, if this is what

415
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,159
Speaker 1: they need to make themselves feel better than this is

416
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 1: what they should be able to use. Yeah, like it's

417
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 1: not so. Even cats that aren't for it and promoted

418
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:18,199
Speaker 1: act like you know, oh, it's like so. So the

419
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,560
Speaker 1: thing is is that the education isn't there that that

420
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,680
Speaker 1: has taught them that it is better than the viceting,

421
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: the oxy codeon and the shots that they're getting. And

422
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 1: this not because they can use cannabis. If it was

423
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 1: taught properly, then they would say, hey, I'm not getting

424
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 1: taking this um medication to get high. The conversation has been, hey,

425
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,919
Speaker 1: you're a stoner. You're a stoner. And and anytime I

426
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:44,680
Speaker 1: I'm on air or someone that says, hey, what do

427
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 1: you do, I'm in the cannabis industry. Oh that's you know,

428
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,120
Speaker 1: I guess you get some good weed. And it's like, no,

429
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 1: it's not even about that. Like you you have to

430
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:54,760
Speaker 1: take a step back and look at this situation and yeah,

431
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 1: it's like we get the best weed. Not not no,

432
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 1: but but the conversation is has how about the best medicin?

433
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:04,439
Speaker 1: How about the best the best? How long? But how

434
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 1: about that m how long before you think you'll hear, oh,

435
00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 1: that medicine smells good. How long before it's a normal thing,

436
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,440
Speaker 1: not a forced thing, because somebody will say that it

437
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,640
Speaker 1: almost sounds forced. And I don't think it'll ever be

438
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:23,120
Speaker 1: called that. I mean cannabis. No, No, the thing that's

439
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 1: stupid is this cannabis in and of itself is medicine.

440
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,720
Speaker 1: You don't have to call it medical cannabis or non medically.

441
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 1: There's no such thing as non medical cannabis. It's a

442
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:43,119
Speaker 1: government made up thing. So you can have a city

443
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 1: that had to justify why we're gonna allow storefronts now

444
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:50,199
Speaker 1: for medical reasons? And uh, and that's why there's some

445
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,119
Speaker 1: cities still today only have medical they don't even have

446
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:55,720
Speaker 1: adult used. And why could I hear someone from the

447
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 1: other side going and calling it medicine is a government

448
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,479
Speaker 1: made up name. Because it's not medicine, it doesn't mean

449
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,520
Speaker 1: it is medicine. I agree with you, Craig. I'm just

450
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,680
Speaker 1: saying I hear that the other side. There's no other side.

451
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,159
Speaker 1: You don't need to call it anything. I've called it

452
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,760
Speaker 1: what I'm used to hearing in life, cannabis, I know.

453
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 1: And I'm just saying, how long before people will act like,

454
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 1: it's what it is, and I agree with you. It

455
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,880
Speaker 1: is medicine, but it's not what's normalized. And it's gonna

456
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 1: happen in uh one year, eight months, seven days. You

457
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,360

00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:59,400
Speaker 1: goes bad right out of Nevada, the headline reads, FBI

465
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 1: invested gating Nevada cannabis business licensing process. We're gonna see

466
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:08,680
Speaker 1: a big shake up in Nevada. Federal agents have been

467
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 1: scrutinizing the Nevada cannabis licensing process to determine if any

468
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 1: corruption was involved in the awarding of business permit the

469
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:21,920
Speaker 1: RICO Act. This is what we're talking about here. It

470
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 1: is watch out, guys. According to the Las Vegas Review Journal,

471
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 1: FBI agents have been speaking with Nevada cannabis industry executives

472
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 1: for at least a year. The investigation is focused on

473
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:41,679
Speaker 1: potential pay to play situations that might have arisen since

474
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:46,119
Speaker 1: the state legalized a don't use cannabis in two thousand sixteen.

475
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:52,680
Speaker 1: Now One former state lawmaker, Chad Christiansen, who co owns

476
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:56,800
Speaker 1: Expensery in Las Vegas, told The Review Journal he spoke

477
00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 1: with FBI agents for roughly forty five minutes la December

478
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 1: about his suspicions of corruption during the licensing process. The

479
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:12,440
Speaker 1: newspaper cited to other anonymous industry sources who reported similar

480
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:17,840
Speaker 1: conversations with FBI agents who asked whether bribes or campaign

481
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:23,919
Speaker 1: contributions were used to influence the distribution of cannabis licenses.

482
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 1: In addition, the Nevada Attorney General's office was notified in

483
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:33,399
Speaker 1: February of a joint investigation being run by the States

484
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 1: Department of Public Safety and federal authorities. The federal probe

485
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 1: could be fueled by an ongoing legal battle over sixty

486
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:48,359
Speaker 1: four cannabis business licenses that were awarded in ten to

487
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:53,080
Speaker 1: seventeen businesses is from a pool of a hundred and

488
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 1: twenty seven applicants. In two thousand nineteen, Nevada governor appointed

489
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:03,520
Speaker 1: a task force to root out corruption or criminal influences

490
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:07,359
Speaker 1: in the state's cannabis industry. Guys, this is going to

491
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 1: be coming to a head probably in the next year,

492
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:13,840
Speaker 1: as these investigations continue. And what do you think I

493
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,880
Speaker 1: think corruption will be uncovered? What do you think? I mean?

494
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:21,120
Speaker 1: I think it's you know, in any line of work, right,

495
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 1: And I'm not just saying cannabis. I'm talking you want

496
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 1: to get a liquor license. I'm talking you want to

497
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 1: open up a smoke shop, and if you know the wheels,

498
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:34,360
Speaker 1: you know exactly Craig, And it's the same ship that happens.

499
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 1: This one now is cannabis though, so it's a little

500
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:40,639
Speaker 1: more know what you know what it is. It's a

501
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:45,000
Speaker 1: whole new industry opened up to the real world because

502
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:49,160
Speaker 1: back in the day, I mean, there wasn't there wasn't corruption, man,

503
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,280
Speaker 1: I mean there'd be some you know, crime on crime maybe,

504
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,119
Speaker 1: but for the most part in the community with Small

505
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:58,400
Speaker 1: Blue Nose is that no one fucked with anybody. Everything.

506
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 1: Everybody work together with them. Yeah, I around with them

507
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 1: back in the day. Now it opens it up to

508
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:08,080
Speaker 1: all kinds of ship, including that well, I'll tell you

509
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:11,560
Speaker 1: One thing that that you know is interesting is you

510
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:13,639
Speaker 1: know when you when you started talking about this mark,

511
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 1: my mind went to, you know, if they are found guilty, right,

512
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 1: did they go back to the other hundred and seventeen

513
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 1: people and say, hey, you know, we made a mistake

514
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:31,640
Speaker 1: and allow just the free open like you know, like Oklahoma.

515
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 1: Did they just open it up and along everybody? Do?

516
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:38,160
Speaker 1: What about the case that you guys remember the case

517
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,679
Speaker 1: that you guys altered. That guy goes to jail and

518
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,679
Speaker 1: that's it, it's a done deal, criminal prosecution. Do the

519
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: guy that gave him money go to jail too? Now,

520
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,280
Speaker 1: they usually turned the state's evidence and rat on a

521
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 1: guy who they gave it to and who give it

522
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:53,160
Speaker 1: gave it to him, and just the guy that got

523
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 1: the money goes down. No, the politician, hopefully just a politician.

524
00:27:58,080 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 1: But I'm saying that you don't think that the city

525
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 1: would open up and allow you know, just because I mean,

526
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,159
Speaker 1: if they had, you know, Vegas just allowed it to

527
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,160
Speaker 1: open up everywhere, you know, it would be a great

528
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 1: place to go. They're all the same, all the cities

529
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:16,720
Speaker 1: are the same. Well that we were in adalantayah Adalanto

530
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 1: had had the corruption and another city, Baldwin Park. Me,

531
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,080
Speaker 1: it's gonna be kind of anywhere right that they have.

532
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:31,199
Speaker 1: These are just America's dumbest criminals. But it happens all

533
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 1: the time. So when you ask what do you think,

534
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:34,120
Speaker 1: I think it happens all the time, and they get

535
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 1: and they're getting caught and hopefully caught enough. Exactly. That's

536
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 1: why I say hopefully justice will be served. I think

537
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 1: they should have to. You know, when the city and

538
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 1: the state get involved in something like that with you,

539
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 1: the city and the state, not just the politician that

540
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,479
Speaker 1: took the money. The potential that if it's a payoff

541
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 1: to an actual licensed clinic or I mean licensed permitted business,

542
00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 1: they could yank that permit. Here's the fun part about

543
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:01,480
Speaker 1: the sol scenario. You're at it for this. Say you're

544
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 1: in Congress or you're in the know of the city

545
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:06,479
Speaker 1: or the state and you know that garden grove just

546
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 1: pick your city is gonna open up, and then you

547
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:09,680
Speaker 1: go out and buy some property, or you tell you're

548
00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:11,880
Speaker 1: as a business partner, let's go get some land over there.

549
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 1: That's that's okayider training exactly, it's bullshit. It's the same

550
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 1: kind of concept of what you're describing Mark of how

551
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 1: this legal type of fucking man. I think there's consequences

552
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,600
Speaker 1: to that as well, you would hope. But guess what

553
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 1: it goes under because my other company open it up

554
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 1: or you know, we had such a such company. Way

555
00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 1: if they catch on, I mean, these people are doing

556
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 1: criminal act. The keyword you said, Craig is if if

557
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 1: they catch it's like any other criminal and they're taking

558
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 1: their chances and they may or may not get caught.

559
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 1: And my point to it is it happens all the time.

560
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:46,600
Speaker 1: So this type of thing that you say when cannabis

561
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 1: goes bad, Mark, I think and you said, what do

562
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 1: I think? I think it happens all the time, and

563
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 1: I think it happens in bigger, grander ways that we

564
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 1: get the wool pulled over our eyes because because these

565
00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 1: congress that whatever, they're making money. On top of money,

566
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 1: look at these people who have a job that we

567
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:05,160
Speaker 1: you know, picked them for their fucking homes all over

568
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 1: the country, big mansion style homes, you know, and God

569
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 1: blessed them for doing well. I wonder how well they

570
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 1: did with all the inside information they have. I'm just

571
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:17,040
Speaker 1: saying it happens, it goes down to you know, the ambulance, Joe.

572
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,920
Speaker 1: I'm just saying it happens, so Mark, So what do

573
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 1: I think about it? I think it happens. And it's

574
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:25,600
Speaker 1: almost one of thost guys who you know, it's Craig.

575
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:27,840
Speaker 1: I wish I was. I wish I was. And then

576
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 1: I'd sit there and tell everybody you know what it is,

577
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,840
Speaker 1: where it is. If you don't like it, get another

578
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 1: job where you could be on the end. If you

579
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 1: don't like it, pay the guy more money either. You know,

580
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,560
Speaker 1: sometimes you don't even know, like like some of these

581
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 1: guys wake up with a lottery take it too though,

582
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 1: you know. They they've had a piece of property and

583
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 1: and they're looking at retiring now, and then all of

584
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 1: a sudden, this damn piece of property is worth millions

585
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 1: more than it's worth in the town because cannabis is

586
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 1: coming there. And it's funny that you know the price

587
00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 1: of Canada just good luck. Yeah, that well, that's good luck.

588
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 1: All right. Yeah, we were talking about eminal ships. I

589
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:02,640
Speaker 1: don't know how you se into that. Well, before we go,

590
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:04,280
Speaker 1: I want to give you guys a go green quick

591
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 1: one right now, and it's about cannabis, drinks and they

592
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:09,120
Speaker 1: just done some new research out there and the study

593
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 1: highlights the potential growth of the cannabis beverage industry. So

594
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 1: by they already made two and fifty million right by

595
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 1: the end of by one, they're saying it's gonna be

596
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 1: at six billion dollars. Over the next decade, the market

597
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:30,800
Speaker 1: value is predicted to expand to twenty four times that,

598
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:36,240
Speaker 1: climbing by thirty eight percent from one to approach the

599
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 1: six billion dollar mark. Cb D base drinks are anticipated

600
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 1: to make up to three of the times that and sales.

601
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 1: It's just crazy to think that where they anticipate this

602
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:48,480
Speaker 1: to goo, which they did this with cannabis and it

603
00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 1: did this. Look what happened in Illinois, Look what happened

604
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 1: in Oklahoma, California. They're making these marks. It's not like

605
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:56,960
Speaker 1: they're far off from it, you know, so to think, oh,

606
00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 1: should I be in this? And you know a lot

607
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:03,320
Speaker 1: of non alcoholic cannabis and fuse beverages are expected to

608
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:08,480
Speaker 1: comprise fift of consumption and a few major players have

609
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:12,000
Speaker 1: made moves in this sector. And perhaps the most significant

610
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 1: developments is s Fedka vodka. I don't know if you

611
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 1: drink that one Craig. Is that one of your vodka brands? Okay,

612
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 1: well it's the Constellation Brands is the one that owns that,

613
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,920
Speaker 1: which is a huge, huge company. They pumped billions of

614
00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 1: dollars into the cannabis company Cannopy Growth since two thousand

615
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:35,760
Speaker 1: seventeen and now own around thirty eight percent of that business.

616
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:38,400
Speaker 1: So Constellation Brands, just to give you an idea of

617
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 1: what they own, they own um Corona, you know what

618
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 1: I mean. And they own Modelo, not Madelo. I think

619
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 1: they also they own a few other big brands, but

620
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 1: as long as vodka as well. My point is they're

621
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 1: putting in billions of dollars, not millions, billions of dollars

622
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 1: already for these cannabis drinks. So when you wonder, oh

623
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:01,400
Speaker 1: I wonder who's gonna do it or what they're doing

624
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 1: there in the process of doing it, they're spending billions

625
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 1: of dollars on it. So when you hear they're gonna

626
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 1: be making six billion, I think that's a good look.

627
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:14,720
Speaker 1: And I don't think it's too late to get in

628
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 1: the game, because you know, It's interesting is that I

629
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:21,959
Speaker 1: saw an email today and I didn't really look at

630
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 1: it much it was, you know, it was uh promoting

631
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:29,719
Speaker 1: another cannabis type convention, but it was a convention that

632
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 1: looked like pretty I'm pretty sure it was regarding specifically

633
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:43,520
Speaker 1: cannabis confused drinks the whole convention really, so it might

634
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 1: be all the ancillary products you need to make that

635
00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 1: stuff and then all the different brands that do it.

636
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 1: I don't know, but uh, it goes in line with

637
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:52,760
Speaker 1: what you're saying. But the crazy thing is as big

638
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 1: as that's gonna get, it's still a small percent as

639
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 1: overall sales. So imagine if it's a small If that's

640
00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:01,440
Speaker 1: a small percent of overall sales, do the matter exactly.

641
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:03,440
Speaker 1: I'm Joe Grande and that's your go green segment. And
