31
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:36,480

00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 1: if I hope I didn't mispronounce you that last name

43
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 1: Great sitting here chatting with you guys. So it's just

44
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 1: amazing how you're just a quad facta of the you know,

45
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 1: business space, let alone cannabis because I say the quad

46
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 1: with the skateboard in there. There's nothing like growing up

47
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 1: smoking someweed and growing on the skateboards. Are you probably

48
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,679
Speaker 1: skateboarded before you even smoked weed, as most kids probably did.

49
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: But I want to go back to early Craig days.

50
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 1: Uh did? First off, did you grow up in the

51
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: Humblet County area? Now? I grew up just a little

52
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: bit north of Atlanta. And then right when I turned eighteen,

53
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: I came out to California because of skateboarding. And then

54
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 1: uh so I came to San Francisco and then quickly

55
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 1: learned about Humboldt and I was like, well skateboarding and

56
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 1: we sign there and so match made in exactly. So

57
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 1: you gotta go to Humble. What's the first company that

58
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: you opened up? As you have a grow, you have

59
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:09,119
Speaker 1: a dispensary, you have a distribution, walk us through that. Yeah,

60
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: the first company was a Statory Movement, which is still around,

61
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 1: but that was our skateboard wheel brand that we started.

62
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,799
Speaker 1: But we also started making hemp clothing when we started

63
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: that company in so I started making hemp clothing at

64
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 1: that time, late late and uh just brought that from

65
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 1: the East coast, actually started in Athens, Georgia, and brought

66
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 1: that up to Humble where we were able to tap

67
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: into the you know, it was mostly indoor home residential

68
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 1: grows back then, but also there was really good opportunity

69
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: with economic development being such a small area, so I

70
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: was able to get a loan. I was like twenty

71
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 1: one years old at the time, so I was able

72
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 1: to get a loan through the economic development and growing

73
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: a little too to four lighter and stepping that up

74
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 1: over those years. But um, it all started kind of

75
00:03:58,120 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 1: with the skateboarding and the hemp clothing. Craig, did you

76
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 1: pay the loan back? I did checking for another loan

77
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 1: with the same agency last week, So you were you

78
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 1: were a young kid when you were getting into all

79
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 1: these business ventures. I can only imagine that there was

80
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 1: a lot of legal procedures and legal matters that you

81
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,840
Speaker 1: needed to tackle. How did you handle that with getting attorneys?

82
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: How many attorneys did you go through? Well, honestly, I

83
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: went and bought a no Low book on forming a

84
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,719
Speaker 1: I mean actually did that that first company. Actually I

85
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 1: actually had the time and I was young and read

86
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 1: and uh form that corporation. Had run through a few attorneys,

87
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 1: but I pretty much did it all on my own

88
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 1: back then. I have a lot more attorneys now these days,

89
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,280
Speaker 1: I bet, I bet you do. Well? You have you now?

90
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:58,160
Speaker 1: Were you ever concerned with the criminal side or the

91
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 1: crimes federally that you were actually were committing committing? It's true.

92
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 1: I mean there's you know, the Feds are out there,

93
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,719
Speaker 1: the Feds just what are they? Just? Uh? The lawsuit

94
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 1: right with California and yeah, the d o J served

95
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 1: the BCC with subpoenas for information on licensed entities including

96
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 1: manifests and all kinds of good stuff. How do you

97
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,839
Speaker 1: feel about that? How did you feel about it in

98
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:26,400
Speaker 1: the beginning, knowing that you were going into that realm. Well,

99
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 1: I knew it was part of the part of the play.

100
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,720
Speaker 1: You know, you gotta take the chances. You gotta be smart,

101
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 1: you gotta have a couple of different burner phones. You're

102
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: really careful about how you operate, allegedly, you know still

103
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,160
Speaker 1: when I drive on looking every which way every time,

104
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 1: setting cruise control, just being really cautious about how you operate. Um.

105
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 1: But you don't really get too far if you don't

106
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 1: push the envelopes. So you had to push those envelopes,

107
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,039
Speaker 1: and uh lucky. I only went to jail a few

108
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 1: times for really short periods. That's what I was. We

109
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 1: would get caught. You get caught slipping every once in

110
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,479
Speaker 1: a while. I back the day before regulations, we would

111
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 1: tell people when they came in and wanted to start

112
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,599
Speaker 1: a cannabis business. You know, they thought it was all easy,

113
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 1: and we actually had a as. I had a mom

114
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 1: from Coda to Kaza come in one time. She wanted

115
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 1: to start delivery service, and she thought it was gonna

116
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,280
Speaker 1: be super simple, And I said, I'll tell you what.

117
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 1: Stand ups. Turn around, put your hands behind your back,

118
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: and we put cuffs on you. Because that's what it

119
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 1: is now. It's a crime. First defended later, back before

120
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 1: regulations and she promptly and she promptly ran out of

121
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 1: the office. So yeah, back then, we was yet one

122
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 1: foot in the felony door before regulations hit. Um, now

123
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,279
Speaker 1: you gotta sleep a little easier, cost a little more,

124
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 1: more attorneys on staff, but in the regulatory process at

125
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: least you're most likely not gonna get hit by the Feds.

126
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 1: Although there's still there, there's still no protection. There's still

127
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 1: no protection right now. The only protection is for medical

128
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,480
Speaker 1: and they're trying to extend that to adult use, which

129
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 1: the House of Representatives have passed UH an amendment to

130
00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 1: extend that protection to all state sanctioned cannaba's businesses. But

131
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:07,039
Speaker 1: like you did last year, it's gonna probably slieve until

132
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: the the Senate would have done it already. The Senate

133
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 1: is not going to do it in a million years

134
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 1: until this November. If it flips Democrat, I think we're

135
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 1: gonna see the doors open up and the FEDS take

136
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 1: action because the Democrats have already done that at the

137
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 1: House level. Now the Senate has to get involved, and

138
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 1: if they both agree, it doesn't matter what Biden fucking thinks,

139
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 1: it's gonna happen. What was it like that first time

140
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 1: you were arrested? You mentioned you did some jail, got

141
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 1: caught a couple of times. To tell us about the

142
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 1: first the first incident of how'd your charity dealing with

143
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: the cops? He used, it's a good story. Actually, so

144
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: is October sometimes right around a friend's birthday. And so

145
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 1: I only knew Arcade city of the city and Humble

146
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: to San Francisco is living in San Francisco at the time. Um,

147
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 1: so I had a connection up in Humble. You know,

148
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 1: I was barely twenty and I don't even know if

149
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 1: I was twenty, But anyway, I would get a friend

150
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: that was twenty five to rent me a car for

151
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 1: a day, for a twenty four hour period, and our

152
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 1: jet up to Humble, grabbed two pounds, jet back, do

153
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 1: my thing, break it up, and and you know, get

154
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 1: something to smoke out of it and make a little money.

155
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 1: So one day I was I had a friend from

156
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 1: out of state who had Georgia place. He's like, yeah,

157
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 1: I'll take you up there. So we went. I stuffed

158
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 1: the sleeping bag in the trunk, got the two pounds,

159
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 1: and uh, we go on our way head and south

160
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: of course, you know, we had dreadlocks. I was just

161
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 1: sleep in the back seat. My friends are smoking weed

162
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 1: while driving, and like, oh man, that's not good. Anyway,

163
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 1: we got pulled over and like just south of Yukaia

164
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 1: and Mendocino County, which I had no idea what was what.

165
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 1: I was just on the one on one we get

166
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: pulled over for going six miles over the speed limit.

167
00:08:55,559 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 1: Pulled us over those dreads. The boom as soon as

168
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,319
Speaker 1: they pulled us or it was like I smell it

169
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 1: in the car, and so you know, I took responsibility

170
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 1: for that, and they brought me into Yukaya. It was

171
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 1: I think of Friday. I think I had like three

172
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 1: dollars to my name at that time. So I was

173
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,079
Speaker 1: locked up. They let me out after the three day

174
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 1: or whatever um and gave me a a court date.

175
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,319
Speaker 1: And so I didn't have a medical card at the moment,

176
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 1: so I went right back to the Bay Area. Gotten

177
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,439
Speaker 1: a point with Todd with Dr Todd mick Arria, who

178
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: was kind of one of the legendary first kind of

179
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 1: doctors that was issuing scripts that you know, California Medical

180
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: Board tried to take his license and everything. So it

181
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 1: was all in those early days. So I got my

182
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 1: script through him and wound up retroactively. The court accepted

183
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 1: the the two fifteen, and um, I wounded up getting

184
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 1: the case dropped only up north. That only happens up

185
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 1: so I got lucky there. And then in two thousand

186
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 1: four I got pulled over in Orange County and I

187
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 1: was a little bit of a different scenario. But eventually,

188
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,199
Speaker 1: after five court dates, my two fifteen got me out

189
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,480
Speaker 1: of that one too. If that one I forgot to

190
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,319
Speaker 1: ask for my pounds back, that's when I wasn't gonna

191
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,200
Speaker 1: mess with it. Right after the second one, I was like,

192
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 1: damn yeah. But even then, even even then, you got

193
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 1: to charge it to the game. Get yeah, you charge you,

194
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 1: You charge it to the game. Um, But depending if

195
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 1: you had your paperwork, we'll see how under to fifteen.

196
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 1: If if you had individually, it might be hard to

197
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,920
Speaker 1: get that back, you could. But if you were under

198
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 1: you know, operating a cooperative collectively properly like we did

199
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,319
Speaker 1: with my kid the second time, when we got the

200
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 1: felonies dismissed, we were able to walk out of the

201
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:48,319
Speaker 1: cops station with all his weed, hash money, phones. That's

202
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 1: the best feeling in the world is getting it out

203
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 1: of the evitable. That was awesome. Yeah, Craig, let me

204
00:10:54,040 --> 00:11:02,120
Speaker 1: ask you this. I mean you're operating real Craig gently, Yeah, Craig,

205
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: you know, operating a square foot uh up to thirty

206
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 1: four thousand square feet. I mean, what what kind of

207
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 1: staff do you employ to operate these kind of a facility.

208
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 1: I mean, there, you've got to have a ton of

209
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,439
Speaker 1: people running around for you. And let's talk about that.

210
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 1: Or is it just you just out there? We lease

211
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 1: the hey month of cannabis. Um Well, it's hard because

212
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 1: I have a management company that manages all of my

213
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 1: employees throughout the four or five different entities, three main

214
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 1: cannabis entities. UM So, I have nearly a hundred and

215
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:37,480
Speaker 1: thirties plus or minus employees on average right now. UM so,

216
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 1: we do have forty nine thousand square foot of outdoor cultivation.

217
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: That takes about a full time crew about twelve people

218
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 1: out there. And then July August when we're harvesting and

219
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 1: replanning for the second run like that, um we got

220
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 1: to bring in an additional ten to twelve people. And

221
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 1: then what really takes a lot of people is the

222
00:11:56,480 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 1: manufacturing of products um, you know process saying into packaging,

223
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:05,400
Speaker 1: getting stuff distribution ready. So so how many medium licenses

224
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 1: do you have? You're only allowed to have one medium license.

225
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 1: So I only have one medium license and then an

226
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: array of small lights. That's what I meant, That's what

227
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 1: the ten and under. Yes, yes, so you must have

228
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: what twenty of those? No? I have one medium and

229
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:31,079
Speaker 1: then sick small I believe you know, look telling not

230
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 1: in that particular property. If I get confused between the

231
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 1: county and the state, got got you tell our listeners

232
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:39,680
Speaker 1: how difficult it is and how long it took you

233
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 1: to go through the process to get actually licensed. It's

234
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: extremely difficult. I mean really it starts with your local municipality,

235
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,319
Speaker 1: so it kind of depends on how hard and difficult

236
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 1: they make it. Um humble, you know, I would say

237
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 1: it was kind of the leader in the pack in

238
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:59,199
Speaker 1: terms of opening up life insane. Not that being easy,

239
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:03,199
Speaker 1: but kind of catapulted me. And I was really licensing.

240
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 1: Um scheme was because the property that I had bought

241
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,319
Speaker 1: in two thousand and fourteen had already been visited by

242
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 1: what they called the wet team, which was you know,

243
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 1: an array of different agencies that were going to bus

244
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,560
Speaker 1: cannabis projects. So they actually came out to this property

245
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 1: before I bought it and then gave us a list

246
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: of violations. So that had already started on all the

247
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,319
Speaker 1: use aspects of it. So I was kind of, you know,

248
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,280
Speaker 1: it's hard to determine whether to go legal or not.

249
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:32,840
Speaker 1: But I was like, well, I'm just gonna go all in.

250
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 1: I see that people are making a living in Colorado.

251
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 1: It seems like there's opportunity, so I'm not going for it.

252
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 1: Not not as much in the old days, but you

253
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 1: still make money, not like the old days. Zough No,

254
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 1: but you know it's you're not looking over your shoulder.

255
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,200
Speaker 1: I like, I like being home and knowing that when

256
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 1: I hear a calicopter, I don't need to worry about

257
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 1: lying down and picking me up. We're talking to Craig

258
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 1: the Jetty out of Humble County is the CEO of

259
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:02,079
Speaker 1: Talking Trees Farms, Tori Wellness, High, Great Distribution, Creation, Skateboards.

260
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 1: I want to go back to when you went there

261
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 1: at twenty years old. How did that community because Humboldt

262
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 1: County man there, you know, it's like a good strong community,

263
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 1: let alone a cannabis you know community how did you

264
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 1: get your in there? Because now you're growing your own farm,

265
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 1: you have a distribution center, you opened up a dispensary.

266
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 1: What was your in I mean, was it the guy

267
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 1: with dredge and just getting along with everybody? How did

268
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 1: you get accepted into the community because now you're a

269
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,240
Speaker 1: huge part of it and you're you know, employing a

270
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 1: lot of people out there. Yeah, I mean I think

271
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 1: with the Hemp the Hemp Clothing Company definitely was a

272
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 1: big factor. You know, been up here and doing producing

273
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 1: products that most are hard to find. So the brand

274
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 1: SA Tory movement was pretty popular. And then um, you know,

275
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 1: you're just being in an area. You get to know people,

276
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 1: get to know the guys at the growth stores. You know,

277
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 1: it's a totally different world from when I first moved

278
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 1: here to now. I mean back in the day, you

279
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 1: didn't want to park in the in the hydro store

280
00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 1: parking lot. You would like send a friend in that

281
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 1: doing the work, you know, someone that because you always

282
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: felt like the cops were what you know, it was

283
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 1: it was exposure that you wanted to be careful of.

284
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: So um, you you know, even up until a few

285
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 1: years ago, mutual friends or you know, my kids, teachers

286
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 1: and stuff. It was all kind of still hush hush,

287
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: No one really knew what was going on. But now

288
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 1: that it's you know, all out in the open, at

289
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 1: least legally local state level, you know, now it's just

290
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 1: kind of an open book and like, here's what was hearing.

291
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 1: What's going on? You want a job? We're still hiring.

292
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 1: Isn't it crazy that that? I mean, well, we're still

293
00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 1: trying to change the stigma of people who smoke and

294
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 1: stoner mentality and all that stuff. I mean, it's still

295
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 1: is amazing to the degree that it is now acceptable

296
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 1: when you say, yeah, I'm in the cannabis space. I mean,

297
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 1: people don't really blink twice like they used to. Oh yeah,

298
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 1: it's cool now oh yeah. I mean I have landlords

299
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 1: that seven years ago like, no way, we won't rent

300
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 1: to a cannabis business, But now you know, they're renting

301
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:55,720
Speaker 1: to me, and they're all about it, and they're actually

302
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: starting their own cannabis businesses. So you've definitely seen a

303
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 1: large a cultural shift from even more conservative people that

304
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 1: are seeing an opportunity. Um, but you know, it's changing.

305
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 1: Golden glitter isn't all They're either they think they think

306
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 1: it's easy money. But I like, I like when people

307
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: getting near to cannabis and like, oh, I'm gonna get

308
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 1: in this and make a bunch of money. I'm like,

309
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 1: good luck. Government's taking it all, you know. I mean

310
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 1: we when we tell people that when they come in

311
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 1: for consultations, it's like, hey, this is not you know,

312
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 1: this isn't what you think it is, and it's not

313
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 1: the green rush anymore. And we can talk about that

314
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 1: a little more when we get back from this break.

315
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 1: Welcome back, Welcome back. So Craig, it's just crazy with

316
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 1: this dude, to which Craig, But both Craigs are crazy,

317
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 1: but this guy Craig was crazier to start all that

318
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 1: stuff out there and humble like that. I mean I

319
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 1: was smart money of you Blue, Like Blue, I mean,

320
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 1: sending people to go buy stuff you couldn't go to

321
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 1: the hydroponic sort. I bet that was some because Blue

322
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 1: grew up with his dad growing wed. I bet it's

323
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 1: very similar for you too. Well, you know those dad,

324
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: you know the big hunter gallon, you know, uh bags

325
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 1: or whatever you'd feel. But you're soiled back in the

326
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 1: day out there in your hoop houses and whatnot. And

327
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 1: you know, we we we one time we got a

328
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 1: call from somebody that said, hey, your your place is

329
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 1: gonna get raided on Monday. And then we're like this,

330
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,880
Speaker 1: this is Friday afternoon. You know, We've got I think

331
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,920
Speaker 1: it was eight hundred of these you know, five hundred

332
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 1: gallon bags or whatever they were. And we were like, well,

333
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,200
Speaker 1: we got to move all these, you know, and and

334
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 1: literally we started on Friday, obviously like we got first

335
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,800
Speaker 1: of all, we left the moment they said that, everybody's yeah,

336
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 1: we all left. And then, you know, Friday afternoon after

337
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:49,399
Speaker 1: I'm sweating and you know, trying to figure out what

338
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,280
Speaker 1: was gonna happen to get these plants, we gotta go

339
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,639
Speaker 1: grab that's all the money. So so we're up in

340
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,919
Speaker 1: the hills and everybody's like, yo, dude. You know the

341
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,360
Speaker 1: cops are down there. They're always you know, pulling everybody

342
00:17:58,359 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 1: down with trucks. So if you had a big truck

343
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,159
Speaker 1: come from the hill, you were like a target, you know.

344
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 1: So I'm like, well, we're gonna get steakbad trucks, you know.

345
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 1: So we literally got those open steakbad trucks and just

346
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 1: put tarps over them. So it looked like it was open,

347
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: like an open truck, and like you're not gonna pull,

348
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 1: You're not gonna stuff, you know, eight hundred trees and

349
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 1: you know, in these huge things and we had to

350
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,679
Speaker 1: we had to get forklifts and and like you know,

351
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 1: it was manpower for days. We moved them all. We

352
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 1: lost half the damn crop. You know. But I understand

353
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,439
Speaker 1: your stories. I'm sure you you had some. I'm sure

354
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:31,840
Speaker 1: you know. One of the things that was intriguing me

355
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 1: is is some of your long term goals of the

356
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 1: worm castings and composts and stuff like that, you know,

357
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 1: creating your own stews. You know, I'm sure you're you're

358
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 1: you're deep into that. What are your thoughts on that, uh,

359
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,399
Speaker 1: in terms of like the feeding and bringing composts and

360
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,120
Speaker 1: stuff like creating your own your own compost and things

361
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 1: like that. Is that that that's one of your next steps? Yeah,

362
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm trying to get to a scale we're

363
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,160
Speaker 1: actually producing like our own worm castings and stuff like that.

364
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 1: But you know, one step at a time. But we

365
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 1: definitely uh produce all organic. Um. We use this global

366
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,879
Speaker 1: soil amendments and then pretty much use dry powder products

367
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:08,680
Speaker 1: that try to stay away from the bottles as much

368
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 1: as possible to in terms of you can just stack

369
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:15,200
Speaker 1: up container fulls of empty bottles freezing liquid nutrients. So

370
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 1: you too, growers talking to each other in another language.

371
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 1: You know this word you talked about worm castings and calm?

372
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 1: What what is? You give me some definitions? Tell me

373
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: what this means in plain English. You know there's worms

374
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:34,719
Speaker 1: in the cannabis tequila. It's food we worn't. Casting is

375
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 1: basically worm poo, which is a great uh, worm conditioner.

376
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 1: And do you relax so you can't eat any of it?

377
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 1: Worm excrement the go um. So yeah, it's great for

378
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,439
Speaker 1: the soil, it's great for the plants. Helps nutrient uptake

379
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 1: and then compost is you know, how do you pick

380
00:19:52,280 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 1: that up? Literally walk around a little little pooper scooper. No, really,

381
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 1: you're all joking aside. I think people want to know.

382
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,239
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk. We're gonna talk in that little bit

383
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,159
Speaker 1: of a detail. I mean, how does that, How does

384
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 1: that happen? How do you distract that? Put a little

385
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 1: thing in there, extract I mean, if you if you

386
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 1: create a bed in an environment, the worms will just

387
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:19,600
Speaker 1: constantly be eating, you know, natural material. Some people feed

388
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,160
Speaker 1: them sawdust, all kinds of different things and then they'll

389
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 1: just when you eat, you poop. And then you sift

390
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 1: those those castings from the like the dirt and material

391
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 1: and then you can extract that or you can just

392
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,679
Speaker 1: add it to your soil as as is um. So

393
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 1: there's many different ways you can work with it. But

394
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:42,440
Speaker 1: as we're talking about and we're talking about growing in

395
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 1: plants and you have the talking trees farms, that's where

396
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,480
Speaker 1: I'm sure you're using all this uh worm poop at

397
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:49,680
Speaker 1: What are some of the stranger strands? I know you're

398
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,399
Speaker 1: selling a Papa and Barkley, Papa selected a bunch of

399
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:54,720
Speaker 1: other companies. What are the big strands that I see

400
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 1: that big company brand and a great looking logo behind

401
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 1: you talking trees listen to and trees grown and humble

402
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 1: good byes. I like the logo behind you. It has

403
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 1: a good look. I mean, like, what are your strands

404
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 1: and what does that grow? Like? We have over a

405
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 1: hundred strains, so you know, we mainly pack a d

406
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 1: industribute to like over three stores, so we're always trying

407
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,920
Speaker 1: to find a new strain, work with breeders and final

408
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 1: hunt in particular cut. So right now, I believe we

409
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 1: have you know, eight greenhouses. We have a bed perse strains,

410
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:36,800
Speaker 1: have twenty four strains minimum on one farm and then

411
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:40,919
Speaker 1: the adjacent farm different twenty four strains or more. So

412
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:49,920
Speaker 1: we're always to try all of them. Yeah, I want

413
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:51,919
Speaker 1: to make sure they're good. Listen, you gotta make sure

414
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:53,639
Speaker 1: you're gonna putting out a good product out there. I

415
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 1: will tell you, give me all one hundred let me

416
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 1: try them out with a with all those strains. Uh, Greig,

417
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 1: you've got you must have a good intellectual property attorney.

418
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 1: You're you're you're protecting the names of those strains. And

419
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 1: what kind of difficulties have you had question maneuvering the

420
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:15,160
Speaker 1: the intellectual property aspect of all this. Yeah. So I'm

421
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:17,440
Speaker 1: not too deep into like the breeding side of it yet.

422
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:19,639
Speaker 1: So most of the strains that we do have aren't

423
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 1: proprietary to us. Um, So I've really gotten into that

424
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,239
Speaker 1: level of it just yet. But I know there are

425
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:26,879
Speaker 1: people out there. Even a friend of mine, you know,

426
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,159
Speaker 1: I thought I had a stream. Well, I know it

427
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:30,920
Speaker 1: was a name out there. So we're like, oh, we

428
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: got this strain. I get a call from my Buddy's like,

429
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 1: I'm like, why is he calling me? He's like, I

430
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:37,199
Speaker 1: gotta let you know, man, you're I got noticed of

431
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:41,119
Speaker 1: trademark and what trademark? You're still in my ship? Craig?

432
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,639
Speaker 1: What am I? What are you talking about? Oh? The strain?

433
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 1: You know, we we trademarked it. It's ours, and I'm

434
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 1: just kind of laughing. I'm like, okay, well whatever, we'll

435
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 1: just call it something different. But I know you didn't

436
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 1: create that strain. He just came up with a name

437
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 1: and trademark. Up until recent I think that's all strains

438
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 1: were the same bag of weed. Let's put this over here.

439
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 1: Those for there, and let's come up with some bitching names.

440
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:08,880
Speaker 1: Last night thing going on last night my friends were

441
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:12,160
Speaker 1: making up new names for Oh, this is called the Yeah,

442
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 1: I think we should call this, you know. It's like

443
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,440
Speaker 1: this is called the hot ass? Yeah? Come on? Kind

444
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 1: of weed? Is that? What's been the number one? Always?

445
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,000
Speaker 1: I mean it's always good to get trademarks, you know.

446
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 1: So if we do start creating our own strains, we

447
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,680
Speaker 1: definitely will trademark. And whether we enforce the trademark or

448
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,119
Speaker 1: let it out and allow other people to grow it,

449
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 1: you know, It's kind of good marketing strategy to let

450
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,879
Speaker 1: people grow it. Other people want to just hold and

451
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 1: possess things. That's not really my style. Just cool to

452
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:39,960
Speaker 1: call someone and be like, Hey, that thing you're trying

453
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:44,720
Speaker 1: to put off, I have my name on it. Yeah, Craig,

454
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:48,159
Speaker 1: what's the one that's gotten you the most? I would say, wins?

455
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 1: I mean, you won the Emerald Cut first place, pre Roles,

456
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: you want at weed Con, you want at high Times.

457
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,960
Speaker 1: Is that one strain that did it? Or was it

458
00:23:56,040 --> 00:24:01,159
Speaker 1: a couple of different ones? Different strains? Really? Uh? You

459
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:04,200
Speaker 1: know right now, one one strain that we really keep

460
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,440
Speaker 1: in our rotation is that we got a really good

461
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:09,880
Speaker 1: Skittles cut many years ago. And um, it's a hard

462
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 1: strain to come by that you're gonna get. You're gonna

463
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 1: give the kid profile trademark on that favorite is so good. Uh.

464
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,440
Speaker 1: Even this year the Z money for so z money

465
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 1: is a Skittles O G Cross. That's a good one,

466
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,359
Speaker 1: you know. Speaking speaking of different products lines, you must

467
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 1: be getting ready for a huge crop to come down

468
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,920
Speaker 1: right now. How much products are you looking at actually

469
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 1: developing this year? I mean, you know, harvest time is here, baby,

470
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 1: so we're just right around the corner from pay day.

471
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,640
Speaker 1: You know, I want to come visit you. Remember these

472
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 1: times in life. I didn't know what time it is, Broy.

473
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 1: They're getting ready right now that everybody's getting getting exciting.

474
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 1: A couple undercover grows. We don't know about you're just

475
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,360
Speaker 1: getting I don't want to know. I've heard about mine

476
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 1: all over the TV. Were you talking about? Let me

477
00:24:57,840 --> 00:24:59,600
Speaker 1: ask you a question right now, I just ask go ahead.

478
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 1: Now it's tough. I we probably got about you know.

479
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,200
Speaker 1: Right now, we're we're already harvesting quite a lot because

480
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 1: we do two runs of light deep in most of

481
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:10,800
Speaker 1: the gardens, so we probably got over six pounds ready

482
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:15,080
Speaker 1: to process. And that's that's the the bottleneck is getting

483
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 1: a process, especially right now with COVID and everything. We

484
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,360
Speaker 1: had to lay off quite a bit of people up processing,

485
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,040
Speaker 1: and now we have to do the social distancing. So

486
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 1: we're running into issues with in all the South American

487
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,639
Speaker 1: kind of trimmigrants that you have to rely on to

488
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:32,639
Speaker 1: get stuff done this time of the year aren't around,

489
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,520
Speaker 1: so getting product to market, and I think we're seeing

490
00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:37,920
Speaker 1: it with other branches because I have a store and

491
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 1: the distribution is extremely challenging this year, there's a lot

492
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 1: less people in the workforce. More people are making money

493
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:47,359
Speaker 1: on unemployment than if they were working. So, yeah, the

494
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:49,679
Speaker 1: machine you can only do such a good job. We

495
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:52,200
Speaker 1: don't really go that route. So we'd like hand manicured

496
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,639
Speaker 1: for our A buds and uh, we're just waiting to

497
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:59,200
Speaker 1: get trimmed and get out to market. But personal love

498
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 1: by next week. So you're saying later next week, I

499
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,399
Speaker 1: could be smoking those a hundred jars that have been

500
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 1: promised to me earlier that we obviously negotiated during this conversation, rights,

501
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,840
Speaker 1: I just want to weed. Man, we're all talking about it.

502
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 1: It's like when you're talking about food. It's like you're

503
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 1: talking about food. Can you imagine that many strains in

504
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:20,879
Speaker 1: front of your going, Oh my goodness, I just like

505
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 1: to see them all. My mouth is watering and I

506
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:27,400
Speaker 1: want to put my lips around the ball immediately, don't Joe,

507
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 1: I a muzzled, muzzled Okay, thank you, what are you guys?

508
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:37,440
Speaker 1: I just got totes and totes of sample bags here.

509
00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 1: Thank god they thank god they allow samples. Huh. I'm

510
00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 1: actually before before they actually allowed for the sample and

511
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 1: allowed a way to track the sample and not get

512
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,680
Speaker 1: taxed on it. I mean, it was bullshit. How long

513
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 1: is it going to take us to tour your whole facility?

514
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:54,439
Speaker 1: I mean if we come down and at first of all,

515
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 1: can we come down? Real? Question two is can we

516
00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 1: if we tour the facility? You know, how how long

517
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:02,119
Speaker 1: would it take us to tour all of them? Are

518
00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:07,120
Speaker 1: they all close enough to hit Hell? No, you guys

519
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:12,359
Speaker 1: can't take a whole day. And I've anybody's welcome. I

520
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 1: actually just got an email right before we got on

521
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,440
Speaker 1: this call that I have a surprise visit from the

522
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 1: c d F A tomorrow at one of my awesome

523
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 1: that's that's nice. But then again, I'm sure, I'm sure

524
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 1: you're in compliance for that. But seven different facilities that

525
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 1: are kind of spread out, so it would take a

526
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:33,520
Speaker 1: whole day to see it. We got a weekend to

527
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 1: put aside. Let's go, boys, We're ready. We're talking to

528
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,199
Speaker 1: Craig gently out of Humble County, and I want to

529
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:45,400
Speaker 1: touch on high grade distribution. How many products are you distributing?

530
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 1: But let alone, how did you figure? Let me start

531
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 1: also creating my own distribution company that can help distribute

532
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,679
Speaker 1: all my products it's a brilliant fucking plan. You just

533
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 1: like capitalize on everything. But but what are you pushing out? Yeah? Well, actually,

534
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,719
Speaker 1: uh high great distribution was actually formed in two thousand

535
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 1: four when I was doing the skateboard business and clothing

536
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:09,119
Speaker 1: apparel for selling a few of my other friends that

537
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 1: have skateboard companies. We started distributing for them around the

538
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:16,080
Speaker 1: world because that product can distribute globally. Um. But once

539
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 1: I started getting into the Cannadas space more and then

540
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:22,680
Speaker 1: transition the distribution comming into being a Canada's distribution company. UM,

541
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,200
Speaker 1: so that was a matter progression our sorry two thousan

542
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:27,320
Speaker 1: eight team. Um. Once we were getting all into the

543
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,680
Speaker 1: canvas permitting and it just seemed like a natural progression

544
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 1: in distributing and controlling where your own products go if

545
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,440
Speaker 1: you only pushed out your own products through there, Yeah,

546
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 1: produce and also, uh you know, have an agreement with

547
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,719
Speaker 1: space Jam gummies, and so we just do talking trees

548
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 1: and the space Jam gummy brand and it keeps us

549
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 1: quite busy. It is guys. We'll be right back after

550
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:59,120
Speaker 1: this break, you know. Um. Actually I think I I've

551
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 1: seen I met you. It's some of the trade shows

552
00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 1: at some point and um or some of your guys

553
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,360
Speaker 1: that were out there working and they had they had

554
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 1: the high grade. Uh the hats were those yours or

555
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 1: was that another company you know and taking on your infringement. Um,

556
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 1: I'm not sure we are. They Like I'm serious about that,

557
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,400
Speaker 1: because they were really high grade hats too. They had

558
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of quality going on them

559
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 1: and they were like really stitched well. Um and and

560
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 1: I remember they were giving them to me like, oh,

561
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 1: we're high grade out of the bay and I thought

562
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 1: it was a guy in his dad or something like that.

563
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:36,440
Speaker 1: But maybe they're just biting on your They had a

564
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 1: little pin on them as well. I'm just kind of

565
00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 1: start googling right after this time. I mean, low key,

566
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 1: that was me himself. I got them all deck right now,

567
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 1: you know, I'm just playing. No, I did get those

568
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:52,120
Speaker 1: on and I saw that the hats, they were good

569
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:55,360
Speaker 1: quality products. And and you know, going into the skateboard thing,

570
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 1: you know, what were you selling just decks? Are you

571
00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,120
Speaker 1: selling all kinds of you know, wheels, accessories or was

572
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 1: that just an apparel line? What was it? I get

573
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 1: a little bit of about the creation skateboards. Was the

574
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:09,280
Speaker 1: decks and then satory movement was the Tory wheels, which

575
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 1: is like the earth thing the wheels, and then some

576
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 1: clothing was like kind of satory movement. UM notable thing there.

577
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 1: I was the first person to ever figure out how

578
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 1: to recycle a skateboard wheel, so we made wheels called

579
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:24,520
Speaker 1: the Real Life Recycled Wheel Program, which is pretty cool.

580
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:29,440
Speaker 1: Nice long waist from long waist from the clay that

581
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 1: I had. Yeah, those were stone. I actually probably was

582
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,120
Speaker 1: on the tail end. I was on the tail end

583
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 1: of the of the metal wheels. Go back for I've

584
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,680
Speaker 1: actually never even skateboard ever. I stood on a skateboard

585
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,040
Speaker 1: one time for a very fake gas photo shoot and

586
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, it's rolling, get me off,

587
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:52,920
Speaker 1: and then that was it. As a kid, I used

588
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,240
Speaker 1: to love the skateboard, and my first one my dad

589
00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 1: made because that's how broke we were meal. I'm just

590
00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 1: gonna get this two by four and cut it for you,

591
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:03,280
Speaker 1: and we can branks and wheels, and we used it

592
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:09,880
Speaker 1: and broke it. I did break it, but you know,

593
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:12,320
Speaker 1: but it was fun. I wish I had a good

594
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 1: quality board from you. Craig said, I had nothing but

595
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,320
Speaker 1: sucked up ankles from the scooters that I could that

596
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:21,000
Speaker 1: we were in Ukraine's all scooters, so I'd rather learn

597
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 1: how to skateboard. Maybe my ankles would have been Were

598
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 1: you a big skateboarder as well, Craig. Did you get

599
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 1: in the pipes and did you try to make her

600
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:30,480
Speaker 1: run for it for the X Games? Mhm h Yeah.

601
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 1: I was really big in skateboarding, but not on that

602
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 1: level like X Teams level now. I was more just

603
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:38,080
Speaker 1: having fun in the streets. Just go to hate Nashberry

Speaker 1: the cops in there? He had to he had to.

606
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 1: He had to. He had to figure a way to

607
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:54,120
Speaker 1: move that money around, right, So you know, I I
