00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 1: have an amazing guest for you guys today. His name

65
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: is Weldon Angelus, Right, Weldon, Welcome to the show. Weldon,

66
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 1: how are you today? What's up man? Thanks for having me,

67
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 1: no doubt man. So Weldon has the Weldon the Weldon Project.

68
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: It's to help people that are currently incarcerated, right, and

69
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 1: can you share that with us a little bit? Yeah? So, Um,

70
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 1: when I got obviously, I did time in prison for

71
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 1: cannabis myself, sir, thirteen years on a fifty five year

72
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 1: sentence for nine with the cannabis. When I got out,

73
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Yeah, when I got out,

74
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 1: you know, because of President Obama's clemency program, and I

75
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 1: had a lot of people pulling for me, like Wry

76
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 1: Booker Senator, to Mike Lee, the Koch brothers, even, um,

77
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 1: we're pushing for me. And I got out and I

78
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 1: hit the ground running. I started working with the White

79
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 1: House and numerous senators and celebrities, and we got the

80
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 1: first criminal justice reform passed since nineteen seventy in the

81
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 1: federal system. However, it didn't affect anyone in prison for

82
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 1: cannabis cases. So when after we passed out, you know,

83
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 1: we were celebrating the White House, I thought of my

84
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 1: friends who were in prison for operating a medical dispensary

85
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,479
Speaker 1: in California who got twenty two years, and so I

86
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: launched the Weldon Project and our first initiative is Mission Green,

87
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 1: and Mission Green is dedicated solely to the freedom of

88
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 1: people in prison for cannabis. Wow, congratulations. Did I've seen

89
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 1: your story? You've been on like several news like you've

90
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,160
Speaker 1: been on national news stuff as well. Right, I've heard

91
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 1: this story before. Yeah, I hear what you're doing and doing.

92
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 1: How do you figure out who you're gonna help as

93
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 1: far as it's only cannabis, or if it's cannabis and

94
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 1: they had method fetamines and a gun, how do you

95
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 1: narrow that down? Well, so, right now we're focused on

96
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 1: purely cannabis cases because we feel like they're the low

97
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 1: hanging fruit, and especially with this president, it's not as

98
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 1: easy getting clemency as it was under Obama, and so

99
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 1: we're trying to narrow it down to like the easiest

100
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 1: group of people, Like we got a guy named Luke

101
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 1: who was just operating a medical dispensary in Modesto two

102
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,720
Speaker 1: thousand and eight. He was indicted following state law. He

103
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,359
Speaker 1: didn't commit any other crimes. He got twenty two years.

104
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: And so we're looking for people that fit this criteria

105
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 1: and we're taking him to the President. I have a

106
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 1: relationship with the White House and we're asking for clemency

107
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,039
Speaker 1: for this category. And we believe this will send a

108
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 1: message to Congress that they need broader reform to affect

109
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,919
Speaker 1: other people who who may not have such compelling cases.

110
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: Now do you find that that you know you're getting?

111
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess you can't move the ball fast enough, right,

112
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,480
Speaker 1: I mean, but it's it's a small process. Or is

113
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: this a process that's have you guys been successful yet,

114
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 1: you know with obviously getting people out like yourself out?

115
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, I mean we we got the guy

116
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: I mentioned his named Luke Scarmazo. We were able to

117
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 1: get his code defin and out Ricardo Montez, they had

118
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 1: the same ACE and we I filed their clemency petitions

119
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: to the President. One was granted, one was denied. And

120
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 1: so it's that random selection, you know that that we're

121
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,839
Speaker 1: trying to to to change because you know, right now,

122
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 1: the people who are deciding these cases are the prosecutors.

123
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,040
Speaker 1: And so this president, you know, despite what people may

124
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: think of him, he created a clemency committee that takes

125
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,600
Speaker 1: the discretion from the Department of Justice, who's the one

126
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: that put us there in the first place, and putting

127
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 1: in a group of thirteen individuals who are some formally incarcerated,

128
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:31,799
Speaker 1: uh and people who are in politics and different areas,

129
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: and they are bypassing the d o J and deciding

130
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 1: these cases directly. And so I believe things will start

131
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: speeding up. Now. I love hearing that about Donald Trump,

132
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 1: to tell you the truth, and I'm not a fan.

133
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna front and acrackham, but I love hearing

134
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: you share a good story because I want to hear

135
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 1: more good stories about this dude. But why I'm happy

136
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:49,919
Speaker 1: to hear that, Why why did the committee do they

137
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: make any decision or say why they let one guy off?

138
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,919
Speaker 1: The same exact fact that for the committee that was

139
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,479
Speaker 1: the d o J. Chew The people that put you

140
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 1: in prison have the decision and whether or not you

141
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,920
Speaker 1: get clemency because the presidents, they haven't traditionally granted clemency

142
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,839
Speaker 1: unless the prosecutor stamped it right now. Trump took that

143
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: away from them and created an independent committee that will

144
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: look at these petitions, vote on him, and send him

145
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 1: up to the White House Council for approval. How many

146
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 1: of you presented under that format yet? If any, I

147
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 1: mean we present. They've passed already thirty and we're just

148
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 1: waiting on those to come down. Just in February, I

149
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: went to the White House and hand delivered a letter

150
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: to the President asking him to start commuting these individual

151
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 1: cases like Luke's. And right after that, a female who

152
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 1: was serving twenty years for cannabis. She had served fifteen

153
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 1: years and she was released. But then COVID hit us,

154
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 1: and so I believe that kind of slowed it down.

155
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 1: But I do believe that we will see more cases coming.

156
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 1: And we're also working in the courts too. You know,

157
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 1: we passed some legislation that allowed judges to give these

158
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 1: cases a second look, and we're using Luke's as a

159
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: test case for that. We're talking to Weldon from the

160
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 1: Weldon Project and he's making waves is Blue and this

161
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 1: guy is amazing what he's doing. Well, then, are you

162
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: a lawyer by any chance, as you served your one

163
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 1: of the thirteen years in prison, did you get your

164
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 1: degree in prison? No. I got a lot of people

165
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 1: out of jail, though, and so you know, I just stay.

166
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: I had fifty five years, so I didn't know if

167
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 1: I was ever get now. So I buried myself in

168
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 1: law books and you know, and I got a lot

169
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,240
Speaker 1: of people. I couldn't get myself out, but I was

170
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 1: able to create a coalition that eventually resulted in my release.

171
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 1: Where are you a local lawyer? But I'm good. Were

172
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 1: you located at what area? Salt Lake City, Utah? That's

173
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 1: beautiful what you're doing. And I'm just warning. I got

174
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 1: these two lawyers that I do a show with called

175
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: The Cannabis Talk one on one. I'm wondering if you

176
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 1: could teach them how to get people out of prison,

177
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 1: because they're real lawyers and can't do ship for people. Definitely,

178
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 1: I'm not sure who he's talking to about strategies. I

179
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:50,400
Speaker 1: will not bested. I'm not talking about you as well. Then,

180
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: why why do you think the president you know, uh

181
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 1: created that policy? Uh you know what, or allowed that

182
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: policy to pass? What what what do you think is thought

183
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 1: process was behind that each talk about the committee or

184
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 1: the or the first Step Act, the legislation comtee, the committee.

185
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 1: Will you know, he's not a typical politician, and typical

186
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 1: politicians look at things like will this affect my reelection?

187
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 1: Will this affect my legacy. Given that he's not a

188
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: typical politician, he doesn't care. He doesn't factor those into

189
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 1: his decision making. You know, he looks to the people pleaser.

190
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 1: And so a lot of people have taken this to

191
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: his attention and shown how injust this the system is.

192
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 1: Like Alice Marie Johnson, who Kim Kardashian successfully lobbied the

193
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 1: president to let out. The pardon office denied her petition

194
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 1: like four times twice under Obama, once under a Bush

195
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 1: and once under Trump. And so you know, that was

196
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 1: evidence alone that this old grandmother who was in there

197
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: for a non violent drug offense should have been out

198
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,360
Speaker 1: years ago, and she had a life sentence. So he

199
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 1: looked at it like, Okay, this system is messed up.

200
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 1: Let's form our own committee and let's look at these ourselves.

201
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: And I think it's a good thing. Even if we

202
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 1: let out some of his his homeboys or some of

203
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 1: his affiliates, if we get out a lot of other people.

204
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: It's worth it to me. No, No, I'll tell you.

205
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,599
Speaker 1: I agree, you know what if if it works and

206
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 1: gets people out, But I disagree on his motives. His

207
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 1: motives I think are everybody has denied this. Lady Kim

208
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:13,319
Speaker 1: Kardashians come to me, this is gonna look so good

209
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: to look what I did. Now if that result that

210
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 1: result he's getting in this Donald Trump, if that results

211
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 1: and people getting out, then I really don't care what

212
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 1: his motive is. I don't really care. I think it's

213
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 1: great and if that's what it takes for him at

214
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:31,200
Speaker 1: this point in time, at the place he is, for

215
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 1: him to politician Craig, I mean, I don't care. Was

216
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 1: there too Obama would have been the same thing. Bama

217
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 1: didn't let her go either. But my point is everyone

218
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 1: has Kim didn't bring him to the table though, you

219
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 1: know I had. Kim Kardashian walked up coming at you Ardashians. Man,

220
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,600
Speaker 1: they're doing a great job. So so well then you know,

221
00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:58,320
Speaker 1: starting the Weldon project obviously, I I would imagine you know,

222
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 1: in your doing fifty years, you know, thirteen years, you've

223
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:03,719
Speaker 1: got a lot of time to think, right, So so

224
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 1: in that thirteen years period of time. Did you create

225
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: it inside the tank or did you come out of it?

226
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 1: Come creating it? I mean, where where did it? Where

227
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 1: was it birth? And then you know who's involved with

228
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:17,320
Speaker 1: you in it? Now? Are you solo? How's that working out? Yeah? No,

229
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 1: Actually I created when I got out of jail. You know,

230
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 1: I didn't know I would be getting out when I did,

231
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 1: and it was sort of sudden. And so when I

232
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 1: got out, you know, I started producing the documentary. You know,

233
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 1: that was the first thing we did, just to kind

234
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 1: of raise awareness. And then I ended up at the

235
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,200
Speaker 1: White House and meeting with doing panels with Corey Booker

236
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 1: and Mike Lee and the Koch brothers. I felt like

237
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:38,680
Speaker 1: I should use my influence and my connections to effect change.

238
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 1: And so, you know, one of my former partners in

239
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 1: the music industry, Big Hollis Um, worked with me to

240
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 1: create this nonprofit. And we have other people involved in this,

241
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 1: including celebrities and athletes and political figures, and you know,

242
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,680
Speaker 1: we're trying to take this to the next level. And

243
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 1: for instance, recently we just welcomed Stormy Simon the formacy

244
00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:59,079
Speaker 1: eld High Times to to the team and so you know,

245
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 1: we're really excited them were growing and especially right now

246
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,080
Speaker 1: with everything that's coming out, like we really need to

247
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 1: push this and we're trying to get the industry behind

248
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 1: us because we could do a lot with the connections

249
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 1: that we have. You know, we we we like Stormy

250
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 1: Simon's we just great. We just had her on the

251
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 1: show recently, so that's a you know, great move for

252
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,960
Speaker 1: you guys as well. Um, she's also gonna be running

253
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 1: for something in office out there in Idaho. Yeah yeah, yeah,

254
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: so to change because you know, we have a medical

255
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,080
Speaker 1: marijuana law out here and it's crap. Like we had

256
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: a ballot initiative that was amazing and the legislature tore

257
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: it up. And I think that's part of the motivation

258
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,199
Speaker 1: payer wanting to run for office here. So let's talk

259
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 1: about some of the celebrities have got behind you, because

260
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:40,840
Speaker 1: I know Snoop Dogg, there's I mean, there's a ton

Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, KG, you know he got behind us, and um,

459
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 1: You know What's funny though, and I want you guys

460
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 1: is and I know it's just fire and you hate it,

461
00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:40,119
Speaker 1: but to really sit back and think how many folks

462
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,159
Speaker 1: are in there just for cannabis, and I mean in

463
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:46,639
Speaker 1: there for prison were this dude, It just it just

464
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 1: it just makes me freak out. For nine hundred dollars

465
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 1: or the cannabis. For years, he was giving fifty That's

466
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,639
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. He was giving fifty five and he served.

467
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 1: But that's that's Salt Lake City for you though there

468
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 1: right so you no, no, no, it's not Salt Lake City.

469
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 1: It was he he got a federal beef. It's like

470
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 1: his friends who had a dispensary in Modesto. It's back

471
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 1: in Oh wait, they were still rating dispensaries even though

472
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,280
Speaker 1: they were legal under California law. At the federal level,

473
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 1: it was not a defense. You couldn't use the state

474
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 1: laws as a defense at the federal level. So people

475
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 1: were still getting put in federal prisons due to marijuana

476
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:27,159
Speaker 1: in each state. Yeah, and and marijuana only well, you know,

503
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:46,919
Speaker 1: stressing out and blah blah blah, and maybe he was

00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 1: he was born in Hunduras and I was wrong, you know,

505

Speaker 1: But he's been in his whole life, you know what

507
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,359
Speaker 1: I mean. I mean I've known him since we were

00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 1: seven and he was born, you know what I mean,

509
00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 1: Like he was running right, he's my buddy's little brother,

510
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 1: and I've seen him grow up his whole life. So

511
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,120
Speaker 1: I mean, he's been here his whole life. And long

512
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 1: story short is they were deporting him because he had

516
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,959
Speaker 1: they're denying my bill. This is not over twenty pounds

517
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,240
Speaker 1: a weed. I mean it's like, you know, there's people

00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,679
Speaker 1: entire life, doesn't even know anybody back home. I mean,

521
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 1: he had like he's like, I got a nat out there,

522
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,639
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go meet her, you know

523
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:31,680
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And I'm just like thirty five and

Speaker 1: And and you know I hung out with them, and uh,

526
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 1: you know, he ended up getting bailed out and then

527
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:42,320
Speaker 1: he fought the case for so long. Um, and uh,

528
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:46,600
Speaker 1: they ended up not deporting him, but they made a

529
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:48,119
Speaker 1: huge stick out of it. I mean, he didn't like

530
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:49,639
Speaker 1: a year in jail. I mean it was it was

531
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 1: quite at the time, but he didn't do fifty five

532
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 1: years over nine hundred I don't know how he ended

533
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 1: up with that. Maybe he had a gun on or

534
00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,200
Speaker 1: something to that. Don't know. That's just the federal they're

535
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,400

539
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,200
Speaker 1: care who they were stinging. Oh, because they were staying

540
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 1: in the het at a state level, something happened in

541
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,639

00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,639
Speaker 1: sting or rating the spencer they had the federal government.

552
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,720
Speaker 1: Guy's Cannada's Talk one the one will be right back

553
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 1: after this. Welcome back to Cannabi's Talk one oh one,

554
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 1: where Greg Washingman sits next to me with the most

555
00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:01,160
Speaker 1: that we've ever had, and all I got I got.

556
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 1: You know what, I've got the jet fuel. I said,

557
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,120
Speaker 1: you can leaves, man, and you don't want to leave.

558
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:10,359
Speaker 1: I've got the gas at the doctor saying, you know,

559
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 1: if the gas is no, I don't know. That's by

560
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 1: smoke to best games. You don't know what? Yeah, why

561
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 1: don't you're asking about doctors? We're talking about well, because

562
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 1: he's sitting here going to the doctors earlier, the guys

563
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 1: grabbing his stomach like he's got punched to the guys,

564
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:27,679
Speaker 1: and I'm worried about it on the shape that but

565
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 1: you know what, there's no time for that. We got

566
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,359
Speaker 1: work to do. So there's put it on man. You know,

567
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,280
Speaker 1: he's talking about gas like he's smoking gas. That's well,

568
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 1: I hope you're god. I got something to bring up

569
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 1: to you guys, and I want your take on this now.

570
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 1: A group of sixteen experts. Basically they putting together like

571
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 1: a Kaiser ferman esca right, so like a pharmacutic with

572
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 1: not a pharmas hospital style. But he's putting together a

573
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 1: federal agency and they're recommending that primary doctors screen their

574
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,760
Speaker 1: patients for unhealthy drug use. Makes sense, right? I want

575
00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:00,920
Speaker 1: to see if somebody has heroin in theirs them, maybe

576
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 1: a little meth amphetamines. But why are they considering putting

577
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:11,760
Speaker 1: cannabis as an unhealthy drug in there when tobacco and

578
00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 1: are not being accepted. It's a group of sixty the

579
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 1: US Department of Health and Human Services, the US exactly,

580
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,200
Speaker 1: so I can get into all the big details why

581
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:26,680
Speaker 1: that's no, not the individuals, but who's putting it on. Yes,

582
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:30,200
Speaker 1: that's it, right, Department of Health and Human something that

583
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:32,359
Speaker 1: I want to I think it might be contradicted because

584
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 1: I do believe that they do. They ask you every

585
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 1: time you go see that do you drink and do

586
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 1: you smoke? Well? No, you know what's fucked up? Is?

587
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:44,760
Speaker 1: I mean, you know what PROFITSCO six in California explain

588
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 1: a little more please. Prop sixty five is the initiative,

589
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 1: is the proposition that the law that says you have

590
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:52,440
Speaker 1: to list everything that could kill you on a you know,

591
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 1: the what is it? The vapors at the gas station

592
00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 1: canna be harmful? You're in McDonald's and it says something

593
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:04,480
Speaker 1: about whatever vapors the soda from. So they added cannabis.

594
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 1: Cannabis is on the list as it could kill you.

595
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 1: What did they say, what's the reason smoking could be

596
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:13,760
Speaker 1: harmful to your real you know what? That's anything could

597
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 1: be harmful to your health, not not one, not one

598
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:20,720
Speaker 1: other drug or chemical that's listed in PROP six can

599
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 1: actually help you. Cannabis can help you. How it has

600
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:29,920
Speaker 1: to be on that too. I'm not saying that they're

601
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 1: just they're just categorizing it in the bad chemical you know,

602
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 1: in the bad chemical batch. Yeah, they're just adding, adding,

603
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,360
Speaker 1: you know, shipped to the shame. So so I think

604
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 1: what it comes to though, Craig, though, is that when

605
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 1: you can bust cannabis and the smoke, you know, the

606
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 1: actual action of smoking, which is probably the most harmful

607
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 1: way to to ingest cannabis is by a straight smoking it. Um.

608
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,959
Speaker 1: Is why they're doing it, and it's just safety, you know.

609
00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 1: I would say, you know, I don't think it's the

610
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 1: end of the world, um, but I certainly do think

611
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 1: they should have more of a information on there about

612
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:09,320
Speaker 1: Although when you say what you just said, Craig, and

613
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 1: more information Blue, I'm actually switching and converting a little

614
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,760
Speaker 1: bit because I'm thinking going if anybody smokes that inflames

615
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 1: their lungs period. There's no question about what they're smoking.

616
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:26,640
Speaker 1: It inflames the lungs period. Now, what I'm smoking may

617
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 1: help some other things, but I'm still inflaming my lungs

618
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,880
Speaker 1: while I'm smoking something that's helping something else and might

619
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,840
Speaker 1: even help my lungs later as well. The point to

620
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 1: the moral is if it inflames the lungs and could

621
00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 1: cause harm, which is more research that we need to

622
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 1: prove this. I think they're going off of maybe that

623
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 1: theory alone, because show me the death of the man

624
00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 1: woman that died from smoking weed. But it's probably there,

625
00:30:56,640 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 1: sugar warning, big old thing, because this creates diabetes, creates

626
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 1: losing your limbs, creates d on there. That's a great

627
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 1: that's a great point. Donald's isn't on there? You fed obese, bastard,

628
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:16,880
Speaker 1: Keep taco. They're not on there. I mean, you're you're right.

629
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:19,640
Speaker 1: I I would actually question that, and I don't know.

630
00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,120
Speaker 1: I think we should sue him for today. I think

631
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 1: we should do a class action lawsuit for not being

632
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:27,520
Speaker 1: on there. It's just spearheaded. It's a good point. Can

633
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 1: we do to counterback, Like, dude, why why can't you can?

634
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 1: You can do whatever you want. What is it? The

635
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 1: US do whateverything? Yeah yeah, just ask them all for

636
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 1: a hunter grant and just go after it. The US,

637
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,040
Speaker 1: you know what, the way we do things, some layers

638
00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 1: we go yeah, yeah, yeah, let's do it, and then

639
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 1: you lose. We would say, you're probably gonna lose, but

640
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 1: if you want to do it, I'll take the money.

641
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:53,360
Speaker 1: That's how you do. That's how we do it. For

642
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 1: your your Puerto Rican brother here, No, because you're probably

643
00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,240
Speaker 1: gonna lose. Why why? Why? I mean it's sugar. I

644
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 1: don't know. If we talk about this, there's other things

645
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:03,240
Speaker 1: that you guys can be putting tags on white cannabis.

646
00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 1: Where's the proof? Where's the proof? That's what I mean?

647
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 1: The proof? Do we do? We's the meat? Do we

648
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 1: sue the state? You look like that old lady from Wendy's.

649
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:14,280
Speaker 1: I don't know who you do. I really don't know.

650
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 1: I don't know you wouldn't you see the US Department

651
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 1: of Health and Human Services called the US Providence Services

652
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:24,760
Speaker 1: Task in California us TF. It's like, who then are

653
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:29,240
Speaker 1: these exactly? That's what it sounds like. You know, well, listen.

654
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, but I bet you if you

655
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 1: put candy in cannabis, they're gonna make you put all

656
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 1: those tags on it. But if you make candy with

657
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 1: you know, sugar, the candy now will kill you because

658
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 1: it has cannabis and the sugar in it. But they

659
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 1: never said it when it had the sugar in there

660
00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 1: kill you because sugar is one of the most addicting

661
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 1: drugs in the world. Oh my god, look around you,

662
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 1: look around you. Look at all the people that soda

663
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 1: that you might be drinking right now, well they you know,

664
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 1: it can change because I don't do that area of

665
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:00,200
Speaker 1: the loss. I really didn't know, but it just opped

666
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 1: in my head that when they probasicly five came out,

667
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:08,720
Speaker 1: caffeine was on the list that had to be disclosed Starbucks.

668
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 1: I mean, there was a huge backlash and they ended

669
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 1: up taking that off the list. Wow, Craig, So we

670
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,080
Speaker 1: do have a lawsuit. We do? We do. I think

671
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 1: we should take it to the Supreme Court. Let me

672
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 1: tell you. I'll tell you what though, Supreme Court, I'm

673
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:25,400
Speaker 1: not so sure. No, we're gonna do it right here today.

674
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 1: We're gonna take a vote, Okay, where the Court where

675
00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 1: the court comment comment. No, so the judge and the

676
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:33,640
Speaker 1: jury are the people out there, and they're gonna call

677
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 1: and leave a comment. Okay, give him that number. Joke.

678
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 1: It's really easy to call and leave a comment. The

679
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:45,719
Speaker 1: phone number is eight hundred. That's eight leave a comment.

680
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 1: And if you've watched any of the shows recently, you'll

681
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 1: see how great Craig Washerman looks. Once he got his

682
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:54,800
Speaker 1: hair dial and cut that damn go t down a

683
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 1: little bit, a little bit, like like three ft at

684
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 1: least three ft. Yeah, leave. He looked like z zz

685
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:06,320
Speaker 1: Top and he looks like zz Tops Gardner had for

686
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 1: a while. I had that right here, So I gotta

687
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:10,279
Speaker 1: throw something else by you guys. And you know, as

688
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 1: we talk about money and suing a company a marijuana

689
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:17,400
Speaker 1: mso Justy buys they're called justin. Excuse me, excuse me

690
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,319
Speaker 1: just she not justin my eyes are going bad ms

691
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:24,120
Speaker 1: oh JUSSI j U s h I. Boys. They buy

692
00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 1: a facility in Pennsylvania for thirty seven million dollars a cannabis.

693
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,920
Speaker 1: So it's just goes to show me how that works. Well,

694
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:33,960
Speaker 1: you know what, this is what I'm gonna get you

695
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,520
Speaker 1: to the point Craig, and I hear you. Let's see

696
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:37,799
Speaker 1: how it works out. But the point I want to

697
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:40,200
Speaker 1: make the people out there is what Blue has been

698
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:43,799
Speaker 1: preaching from Jump Street. Start your fucking business, folks, if

699
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 1: you're thinking about doing it. This guy that started his

700
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:51,360
Speaker 1: business in Pennsylvania, guess what got for thirty seven million dollars.

701
00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, Wait a minute. I hate to be

702
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:55,840
Speaker 1: the old grumpy you know, come with it. You always

703
00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 1: want in the details, But the devil's in the details.

704
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:01,760
Speaker 1: How much is cash and how much a stock? Well

705
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:06,360
Speaker 1: it doesn't the funds and the purchase that's just secured.

706
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,480
Speaker 1: So that company secured fifteen point to five million in

707
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:14,240
Speaker 1: debt financial that was led by insiders and existing shareholders.

708
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 1: The accusation involves a purchase of Pennsylvania Medical Medical Solutions

709
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 1: and licensed medical mirror Wanna Grower processor at a Scranton

710
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:24,759
Speaker 1: owned But you don't. I don't know. I'm trying. I

711
00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:26,920
Speaker 1: wish I would have known that answer, but I don't know.

712
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:32,399
Speaker 1: Bottom line, it's a nine thousand square foot location cultivation,

713
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,080
Speaker 1: you know. And my point to the story is, and

714
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 1: why I like to go green with something like this

715
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:41,319
Speaker 1: is I've heard Blue preach this teach this. We work

716
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,839
Speaker 1: with people, We encourage people, and as you, Craig, work

717
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:46,799
Speaker 1: with people to start businesses. But say it that cost

718
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 1: a lot of money. And those who do guess what.

719
00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 1: I don't think the business that this person sold cost

720
00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 1: to them thirty seven million dollars to create. I could

721
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:57,919
Speaker 1: be wrong, No, I could be wrong, but I don't

722
00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:00,600
Speaker 1: think I am. So my point and four old, and

723
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 1: maybe my point and mold of the story is maybe

724
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:06,719
Speaker 1: a hunter ground, you know, way you never know, nine

725
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,799
Speaker 1: square foot build it has covered more than it's in Pennsylvania.

726
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 1: But no, he all got them. The guy did actually

727
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:18,800
Speaker 1: started man not have started jo He might have followed

728
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:23,399
Speaker 1: money like Trump got involved today with them, not saying

729
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:26,600
Speaker 1: how much thought he's on an architect, he's found a

730
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:29,399
Speaker 1: grower and he's put the pieces to the plumy what's

731
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,799
Speaker 1: wrongs and other people? But then and by the way,

732
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 1: I see it right here at Craig, let me answer

733
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:36,480
Speaker 1: your question. Paying sixteen point three million dollars in cash,

734
00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:39,880
Speaker 1: paying three point eight million seller notes and eight percent

735
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:43,920
Speaker 1: interest with tree and four years, assume a seventeen million

736
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:48,000
Speaker 1: dollar facility associated with the long term opposition. So that's

737
00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:49,719
Speaker 1: what we're looking at and and you know what, I'm

738
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 1: very good, Joe. Thank you for clearing that up, no doubt.
