Priest out of Alaska. 131 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:30,280 Speaker 1: That's the headline. A Catholic priest was arrested in the 132 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: state of Alaska for allegedly being armed with a gun 133 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: and in possession of a packet of cannabis while drinking 134 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:42,159 Speaker 1: and driving. University of Alaska Fairbanks campus priest father Sean P. Thompson, 135 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: was pulled over by trooper Christopher Blitz on March when 136 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: traffically spotted that he was speeding and weaving in his 137 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:55,799 Speaker 1: pickup truck on a rural highway near McKinley Village. Biz 138 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 1: said Thompson was disoriented during the traffic stop, and it 139 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 1: minted he was drunk. That doesn't sound like stf you. 140 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 1: It sounds like ratting on yourself. And so the priest, 141 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 1: it sounds like I guess he was into confession. When 142 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: Bits asked the priest to present his vehicle registration, the 143 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 1: fifty two year old handed over a receipt while Thompson 144 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: alerted Bits to the three fifty seven caliber handgun stashed 145 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 1: in the back of the truck. He forgot to say 146 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: he had a nine millimeter handgun in his back pocket. 147 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: The trooper found the handgun in the priest pocket, but 148 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 1: he didn't get shot. He did not get shot. Well, 149 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: you know, the priest is a priest, was out and 150 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: it sounds like it, and he had a bag of 151 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: cannabis in his pocket. Bits wrote the priest that refused 152 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: to take another alcohol test described as more accurate. He 153 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: then arrested the priest for drinking and driving refusing refusing 154 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: to take an alcoholic test, which I think in Alaska 155 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: that it's one of the places, one of the states 156 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: where you have to do it all like California, right, 157 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 1: and charged with possessing drugs, carrying a firearm while intoxicated, 158 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: and not telling the trooper he was carrying a handgun. 159 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: So those are all different charges that he was arrested for, 160 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: and he has pleaded not guilty posted five thousand dollar bail. 161 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 1: Now he still remains a priest for the Catholic Disa 162 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: Firebanks and has been placed on administrative lead. Why did 163 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 1: he tell him, I don't think you know what? You 164 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: know what? I think this is a really good example 165 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 1: of it doesn't matter if you know the script. It 166 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: doesn't matter if you shut the funk up, It doesn't 167 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 1: matter if you're fucked up. He's given him a receipt 168 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: instead of his license. He was fucked up, and he 169 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 1: didn't need to admit to anything. I mean, now, if 170 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: you're gonna carry the guns, just being that fucked up. 171 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,679 Speaker 1: He fucked up by not telling him in that state 172 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: if you know, if you have I don't know if 173 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: he had concealed weapons or just in that state, it 174 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 1: might be okay to carry, but you have to tell 175 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: law enforcement I'm carrying, right Why when you walk up, 176 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: I'm carrying? Is that here in Cali too? You know what? 177 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 1: I don't really get into that with I don't have 178 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 1: a concealed weapons permit, but I think you do have 179 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 1: to disclose it um when, but I'm not sure. I 180 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: don't know those rules. So I really don't like to 181 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: talk about it. But this just shows you that if 182 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 1: you're we always say it doesn't matter. If you're fucked up, 183 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: they should take you in period. Yeah, well, I've been listening. 184 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 1: I'll say.

Back in the day, they used to 271 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:03,559 Speaker 1: have all these things where you know, uh, certain like 272 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 1: things that they had that you couldn't even bring it 273 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 1: up to your children that they were smoking weed. See. 274 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 1: I would be like, sunny Air, I found this weed 275 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 1: in your in your door. What are you using for? Well, 276 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: my knee hurts, damnit, kid, that's the wrong strain. You 277 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:18,319 Speaker 1: need to use the indica, not as ativa. See. That 278 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 1: would be the kind of parent take I would do. Well, 279 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 1: as parents, do we wait until our teens are in 280 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: bed or do you know where we drop them off 281 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: to school to smoke? Do we have to do we 282 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 1: have to hide our smoke from our teenagers? I think 283 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: you tell them just like drinking, you have to take precautions. 284 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: Except for alcoholis our side. Cannabis is much better than 285 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 1: alcohol because no side effects. Well what about like with 286 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 1: you with um? You know you you have a teenager 287 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 1: in your life. Does she know that you smoke? There 288 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 1: were teenagers? Theyre um No. Actually, so I didn't use 289 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 1: cannabis when I had kids in the house. Actually I 290 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 1: did have two step kids, and I was not using 291 00:14:55,160 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 1: cannabis then. But now with Dennis and his child, I see, sorry, 292 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: uh yes, but I feel like still know that's the 293 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: weirdest thing. Okay, so that's the funniest thing, right. So 294 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 1: I was thinking this the other day, and this is 295 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 1: a really good point that you brought up. Jenday's do 296 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 1: I use cannabis in front of like people's kids? And 297 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: I was thinking that's the other day, like we're all out, 298 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: and I decided to stop drinking. So Jenny stopped with 299 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 1: the vape pens and I stopped drinking champagne. Just temporarily, 300 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: not just time. We're not segregating any kind of different cannabis, 301 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 1: just cannabis in general, cannabis and general. Yeah, to be clear, 302 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 1: she's giving up cannabis in general, and I'm giving up 303 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 1: champagne in general. And so I'm sitting here thinking, you 304 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 1: know what, it's really dumb that I, technically I feel 305 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 1: like I shouldn't sit here and hit my vapepin. Everyone 306 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 1: else is here drinking, right, everyone has wine and the margaritas, 307 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 1: and I'm sitting here with my water and I shouldn't 308 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 1: be able to just pull out my vapin and sit 309 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 1: and hit it. But because there were kids around, I 310 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 1: didn't want the parents to be like, oh my god, 311 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 1: she's smoking in front of my kid. Da da da. 312 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: So I think a lot of parents, if you do 313 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 1: use cannabis, talk to your kids so they can maybe 314 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: see the person in the corner and go, hey, no, 315 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: it's okay, my mom smokes cannabis. To Polly of eight 316 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 1: pen out, Well, you know what the legal ages to 317 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 1: smoke cannabis in California? I think one yes, to carry 318 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 1: or to smoke, But do you know what the age 319 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 1: children or even teenage are smoking as early as twelve 320 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 1: to fourteen years. But think about cigarettes. You you have 321 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 1: to be eighteen to poison yourself with the what five 322 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: hundred plus poisons that are in cigarettes? You can nineteen, sorry, nineteen, 323 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 1: you can go buy cigarettes? Oh twenty one? Did they 324 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: raise it? I'm sorry. I don't leave my house. I'm 325 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 1: too busy smoking weed. Huh when did that happen? Well? 326 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 1: I know, thank you Pitt Fit and Chris in the back. 327 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 1: Given it's all the so if like if we have 328 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: to be like a straight shooters here and life dependent 329 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 1: dependent on it. It's a fact that kids are smoking 330 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 1: cannabis at the ages of twelve to fourteen and the 331 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 1: legal ages twenty one. But being a parent, do you 332 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 1: wait to twenty one to talk to your kids about 333 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 1: cannabis or think the same thing like sex? Like sex 334 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 1: is great, but not with kids too early, and weed 335 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: is great, just not too early. Yeah, And I think 336 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,199 Speaker 1: about it is you know. I brought this up to 337 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 1: beautiful Jennifer who works with cannabis talk one on one, 338 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,639 Speaker 1: and it was wonderful how she was talking about the 339 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: bonding experience that you can have with certain things that 340 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:19,880 Speaker 1: you do. And I'll be honest, with you. My son, 341 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 1: he's twenty years old. I smoked weed with him probably 342 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:26,679 Speaker 1: about two years ago, and it was one of the 343 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 1: nicest experiences I've ever had with him, and we really bonded. 344 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 1: And wasn't wrong to smoke weed with my son that's 345 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 1: eighteen UM. At the time, I knew he was smoking. 346 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: I knew he was. I wasn't going to deny it. 347 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: So I thought, you know, was he smoking the good stuff? 348 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,239 Speaker 1: Did you? Did you have a good taste? He did 349 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 1: have good taste, yes, yes, And I wasn't. The thing is, though, 350 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 1: I wasn't promoting, Hey, son, listen, let's just go out 351 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: and smoke weed all the time. But I wanted to. 352 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,639 Speaker 1: I wanted to get into his level and I wanted 353 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 1: to I wanted to talk to him. And I didn't 354 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 1: want to be the one that just shuts the door 355 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,400 Speaker 1: and doesn't act like it doesn't happen. Well that because 356 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 1: you were a great mom. You really care about your 357 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:03,719 Speaker 1: kid and they were being in their health and a 358 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:05,679 Speaker 1: lot of parents are just afraid, like, oh, I shouldn't 359 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,119 Speaker 1: talk to my kids about drugs. You should talk to 360 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: your kids about everything. The more you care about your kids, 361 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 1: the more you should talk to them. And that's why 362 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,159 Speaker 1: you're a great mom because you talked him about everything. 363 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 1: You yell at him, you throw stuff, You're awesome, you 364 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 1: know as you care well kidding, I've never seen you 365 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: those stuff. Well, the thing is is look at day 366 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 1: and age now where millennials are, and then let's go 367 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:27,359 Speaker 1: back a decade to fifteen years and think about, you know, 368 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 1: growing up with my father. You know, I lived on 369 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,199 Speaker 1: a dirt road. My dad drove a Harley. He was 370 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 1: you know, constantly smoking weed. Probably cocaine was involved. And 371 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 1: your dad sounds like an awesome time. By the way, 372 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 1: Hartley some coke at joint. But to be honest, just 373 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,959 Speaker 1: because it's really important about this episode for me as 374 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 1: as podcast is, Um, I didn't like my father. I 375 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 1: thought he was a bad influence. I thought that he 376 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 1: was a drug dealer. I thought that he um did 377 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 1: all these bad things. And that was ten years ago 378 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 1: and now flash forward to today and I think, Okay, yeah, 379 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,399 Speaker 1: the cocaine part was bad, and um, you know if 380 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,719 Speaker 1: he was selling and it was illegal. But when my 381 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 1: dad did smoke back in the day, he really wasn't 382 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 1: a nuisance to me. I mean, he wanted to talk 383 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: all the time, and he was funny and he ate 384 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: a lot. But the cannabis, if to be honest with you, 385 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 1: never really was a problem. Well because think about it, 386 00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:23,239 Speaker 1: you never really I feel like you don't really hear 387 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:25,200 Speaker 1: too many stories of someone like, oh, yeah, my dad 388 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 1: just hit you know, eighty two bomb rips and then 389 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:28,879 Speaker 1: beat me. It's like, no, they drink twenty beers and 390 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 1: then beat me. So it's just like people need to 391 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,400 Speaker 1: stay away from alcohol and stick to stick to cannabis. 392 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 1: And that brings up a really really good point, Christine, 393 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: because you know, having the kid's day and agent now 394 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,719 Speaker 1: where they have the choice to smoke or the choice 395 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 1: to drink, what would you rather than do? It was 396 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 1: funny because me personally so um again, like I only 397 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: drink Champagne's. I've never gone into bar going wow, I 398 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,919 Speaker 1: just can't get drunk quick enough. So I want something 399 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 1: that I can just kind of, you know, drink throughout 400 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,440 Speaker 1: the day that isn't too much, but it's just kind 401 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 1: of seems like a pointless waste of cal He's like, 402 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 1: I really love the cannabis drinks now because it's you know, 403 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,360 Speaker 1: kind of the same feeling. But you get the get 404 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 1: the health benefits. So I would definitely tell kids, hey, 405 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,000 Speaker 1: rather than you know, alcohol that is guaranteed to make you, 406 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 1: you know, not be able to drive your car and 407 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,680 Speaker 1: be inebriated and make bad choices, try cannabis drinks. I'm 408 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: gonna be honest, folks. If I have a choice for 409 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 1: my son to drink or to smoke, I would choose 410 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:26,440 Speaker 1: smoke every single day. And you know what, this is 411 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 1: the best part about it. The kids that are in 412 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,960 Speaker 1: the younger millennial age, like even, like I think my 413 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 1: son's not even he's younger than millennial. What is it 414 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 1: beyond a millennial? They're they're like, they're like, I'm too old. 415 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,160 Speaker 1: You're asking the wrong I'm too old for this too. 416 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 1: To figure out what they are like, they're like, beyond 417 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:48,919 Speaker 1: the millennials, what that generation is literally submerged in cannabis everywhere, 418 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 1: So they're growing up with it around them. They're seeing 419 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,439 Speaker 1: the dispensaries, they're seeing people smoke it, they're seeing it 420 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:59,400 Speaker 1: as a pastime, they're seeing people bringing people together. They're 421 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,919 Speaker 1: in a different day and age than we were. Yeah, 422 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 1: and I really respect that because I my son came 423 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: over it was his birthday this weekend. That's right, Happy birthday, 424 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 1: Luke and jen X is what we're talking about. My 425 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: son jen X and he said, hey, mom, how you 426 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 1: know you smoke in whatever? And I told him I 427 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 1: was taking this tolerance break and he's like, I just 428 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 1: took one two weeks ago. How cool. My son schooled 429 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 1: me on what a tolerance break was, and he told me, 430 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,400 Speaker 1: he goes, look, mom, you know we smoke a lot 431 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: and everything, but after you, you know, you you can 432 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 1: build up a tolerance and you can take a you know, 433 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,679 Speaker 1: take a week to two week break, and you you 434 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 1: can smoke cannabis again and you can get high, because 435 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 1: some people at a certain point can't get high if 436 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,679 Speaker 1: they smoke too much weed. No, it's funny that you 437 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 1: said that, because I was actually like, maybe I should 438 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: start inhaling weed and my other nostril because maybe I'm 439 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,360 Speaker 1: not getting hied up and I could actually tell a difference. 440 00:21:57,560 --> 00:21:59,439 Speaker 1: So I think the left side of my brain is complete. 441 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 1: The listener is I inhale lead. And this is good 442 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 1: to tell people like elderly people. A lot of elderly 443 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,159 Speaker 1: people want to use eight pans and they can't like 444 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:10,399 Speaker 1: form enough of a grip with their mouth to inhale it. So, 445 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 1: but the nostril you always can but anyway, so I 446 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 1: inhalle it through my nose, and I just started trying 447 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: the other side. So I always use the left side. 448 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:18,679 Speaker 1: And it's like a different high. You know how they 449 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:20,879 Speaker 1: say use the left side of your brain and the 450 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 1: right side of your brain. So smoked snorting lead into 451 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 1: the right side, new high than left. Learn something new 452 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 1: every day. You learned something new every single day. I 453 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 1: am high off these cannabis. Talk about it's actually gen Z, 454 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 1: so not Jennet's gen Z now, it's gen Z Now. 455 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: I'm like, cause that because I remember the gen X stores. 456 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:40,639 Speaker 1: So it's like I don't know if it can be 457 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 1: gen X because that's like way back we're so aging ourselves. Listen, 458 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: there's nothing wrong. Yeah, okay, I get it all right. 459 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 1: I have no one to blame. I can't blame the 460 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:55,240 Speaker 1: paint fumes. I don't even know my own generation. You 461 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: don't even know your own generation. Sorry, guys, I just 462 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,919 Speaker 1: letted it from Mars, like last week, talking about like 463 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:05,120 Speaker 1: the difference differences to talk to children, talk to teens, 464 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 1: you know, is there a support groups? Is it even 465 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:12,440 Speaker 1: talked about and do you feel like high schools are 466 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,120 Speaker 1: opening up to where they would allow people to talk 467 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,679 Speaker 1: about cannabish? Yeah, I think I think in high schools 468 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 1: to probably start teaching classes on cannabs because I've seen 469 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,919 Speaker 1: a lot of people taking UH courses in UH college 470 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,439 Speaker 1: on cannabis now. So I I feel like, UH, in 471 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 1: our lifetime, we're definitely going to see UM I think 472 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,159 Speaker 1: as earliest high school UM classes on the benefits of 473 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 1: the cannabis plant. Why have an experience that happened to 474 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,719 Speaker 1: me when my son was in high school, which UM 475 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,360 Speaker 1: wasn't that too long ago, and I literally they were 476 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 1: doing they brought in UM police officers to Notre Dame 477 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 1: High School and UH they were all talking about substance 478 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 1: abuse and everything because there was a lot of cannabis 479 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 1: on campus and UM they were starting going to today 480 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: a lot of cannabis on campus.

Did she 648 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 1: walk away with two million? Wells may have had, you know, 649 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 1: stuff buried, something buried somewhere. But she's not gonna use that. 650 00:32:56,000 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 1: You're not gonna pull and dump. You're not gonna happen. Yeah, 651 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:02,959 Speaker 1: but it's got a little dirt on it. I'm not 652 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:06,239 Speaker 1: playing that the wipe it off man. So Craig, let 653 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,280 Speaker 1: us know what's going on in cannabis news man. Well, 654 00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 1: we have something that's kind of interesting. I mean, it's 655 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:14,600 Speaker 1: showing that the ball is definitely moving forward towards federal legalization. 656 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 1: While it might not be the best. We have a bet, though, 657 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 1: don't we Oh, you're gonna lose that bet. I don't 658 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,920 Speaker 1: believe it. Yeah, we're gonna lose that bet. You said 659 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:26,880 Speaker 1: five years it will be in walmart. We didn't talk 660 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:30,680 Speaker 1: about federal legalization. That wasn't it. We'll have to go 661 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 1: back and find that episode. It wasn't about when it's 662 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,000 Speaker 1: gonna be federally legal. It's gonna be when is it 663 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 1: in the walmart? We have we have one bet. That's 664 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 1: that's we're gonna telling everybody how great this news is 665 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 1: get showing that even on the Republican side, we have 666 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 1: a pair of congressional Republican lawmakers have introduced the bill 667 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 1: to federally legalized marijuana, protect the banks that service state 668 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 1: legal cannabis businesses, and ensure that vets are specifically permitted 669 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 1: to use annabis and compliance with state laws. It's called 670 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 1: the Common Sense Cannabis Reform for Veterans, small Businesses, and 671 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 1: Medical Professionals Act. Is being sponsored by David Joyce, Republican 672 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 1: out of Ohio, and Don Young, a Republican out of 673 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:20,320 Speaker 1: out of Arkansas. So we have two Republicans putting something forward. 674 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:25,280 Speaker 1: Now they're granted from what I'm reading here, it doesn't 675 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 1: have some of the social equity things in there that's needed. 676 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:32,720 Speaker 1: It has some other shortfalls, but at least it's showing 677 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:37,160 Speaker 1: that across the aisle people are moving forward taking it 678 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,880 Speaker 1: off the schedule list. The main crux of the legislation 679 00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,920 Speaker 1: is the federally de schedule cannabis, and it's similar to 680 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:46,640 Speaker 1: pass bipartisan proposals, but this one goes a few steps 681 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:50,320 Speaker 1: further with language on legal protections, mandate for federal studies 682 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 1: into medical cannabis. But it doesn't have social justice provisions 683 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 1: that repair the past harms of the War on drugs. 684 00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:00,880 Speaker 1: But they're talking about. This is what the the co 685 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:06,399 Speaker 1: chair of the Congressionable Cannabis Caucus says, with more than 686 00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:10,640 Speaker 1: forty states taking action on this issue, it's past time 687 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 1: for Congress to recognize that cannabis that continued cannabis prohibition 688 00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:19,280 Speaker 1: is neither tenable nor the will of the American electorate. 689 00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:24,120 Speaker 1: We've shown that it's the will of the American electorate 690 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 1: is to federally legalize cannabis and leave it to the 691 00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 1: popular vote. Joyce said that this bill answers the American 692 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 1: people's call for change and addresses our state's need for 693 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:39,080 Speaker 1: clarity by creating effective federal regulatory framework that's gonna help 694 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 1: support veterans, small businesses, workers, and allow that critical research 695 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 1: and tackle the opiate crisis. All are respecting the rights 696 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 1: of the states to make their own decisions regarding their 697 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:54,080 Speaker 1: own policies. So if they're they're looking forward to working 698 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 1: on both sides of the aisle to get something like 699 00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:59,360 Speaker 1: this sign in the law so they can enact sensible 700 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 1: and mean need full candidates reform that will improve everybody's 701 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 1: lives and livelihood. So, I mean, I just think that's 702 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:09,279 Speaker 1: you know, it's and and it's tough coming from a 703 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 1: place of even myself of when I started smoking years ago, 704 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 1: you know, it was a felony to have uh, to 705 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 1: have a joint and to think that baby steps. Even 706 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 1: as much as we hated and a lot of us 707 00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:31,920 Speaker 1: did Prop sixty four, it had that silver lining of 708 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:35,440 Speaker 1: getting people out of jail. There was still there were 709 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:38,719 Speaker 1: still so many other problems with it. But if you're 710 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:40,759 Speaker 1: talking to people who have been in the fight for 711 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:43,919 Speaker 1: forty years, it's a first It's like a big, huge 712 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:47,640 Speaker 1: first step, you know. Um, and hopefully they're gonna take 713 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 1: after New York. Really, I mean, I know we've talked 714 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:57,680 Speaker 1: about they leap frogged over everybody in their legalization and 715 00:36:57,760 --> 00:36:59,879 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be there very soon. I'm gonna talk about 716 00:36:59,880 --> 00:37:01,799 Speaker 1: that when I get back on the When I get 717 00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:04,840 Speaker 1: back the question is is Walmart gonna carry it in 718 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 1: Costco within five years? That was the bet that, well, 719 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,479 Speaker 1: that I'm gonna win that You're not gonna win this, dude. 720 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 1: It's already in Canada, Canada. Yeah, but come on, man, listen, No, 721 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 1: there's no way, isn't Cannabis isn't in Walmart. Canada is 722 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:24,440 Speaker 1: in Costco. It's not in Costco, in in in Canada. Okay, Okay, 723 00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:26,880 Speaker 1: But you know what's important. Blue. You know what's important 724 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 1: is that we have two Republicans. You made it since 725 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:34,319 Speaker 1: the two Republicans that are actually and hopefully that needs 726 00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 1: to grow and hopefully they can you know, they can 727 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 1: uh cut that divide and and get something past here 728 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,719 Speaker 1: soon at the federal level because we all need it. Um. 729 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 1: I think you New York, I think it's monumental. And 730 00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:52,440 Speaker 1: I think the the biggest thing they did which is 731 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:58,080 Speaker 1: going to help the unfair treatment of people of color 732 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,520 Speaker 1: and minorities is that they took away the smell and 733 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:04,760 Speaker 1: you can smoke in fucking public. That was the number 734 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:08,839 Speaker 1: one reason either a traffic stop or a citizen stop 735 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:12,319 Speaker 1: which turned into bullshit. So they can't use that. I 736 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,360 Speaker 1: read the I read the memo that went to the 737 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:17,960 Speaker 1: police department, and it literally is spelling it out. You 738 00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 1: can't use this. You can't. And I saw. I really 739 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:23,720 Speaker 1: wish I could have been there for the cannabis parade. 740 00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 1: Um uh, I missed that by two weeks. But you know, 741 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:29,200 Speaker 1: the cops standing around on the street just like any 742 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 1: other crowd control at a parade and people just smoking 743 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:33,680 Speaker 1: walking down the street. I can't wait to get to 744 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 1: New York and do that well, I'm jealous. I wanted 745 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:37,759 Speaker 1: to have one here in the California for sure. I 746 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 1: think that's gonna be mainly left up to the states. 747 00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: So um, hopefully the federal regulatory process isn't gonna be 748 00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 1: onerous and they're gonna leave it up to the cities 749 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 1: and the states to do that. But the fact that 750 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:53,320 Speaker 1: we have, you know, bipartisan support, you know how quickly 751 00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:56,759 Speaker 1: they can come together to get a majority. And I mean, 752 00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:00,720 Speaker 1: maybe we'll have a guest on soon who can talk about, 753 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:04,160 Speaker 1: you know, this president and whether or not he may 754 00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 1: or may not veto a cannabis reform bill that legalizes 755 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 1: and he schedules it. That's gonna be really, really really 756 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 1: talking about Biden. When you say talking about Biden, fuck 757 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:18,399 Speaker 1: on the House. Who still thinks that it's he still 758 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:21,239 Speaker 1: has read for badness. He's he doesn't try to disclose that. 759 00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:25,240 Speaker 1: But the fact that he during his campaign he literally 760 00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:28,239 Speaker 1: fumbled and called it a gateway drug, which has been 761 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:32,440 Speaker 1: so debunked by so many people, by so many studies 762 00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:35,799 Speaker 1: across the world, that it tackles opioid crisis, it gets 763 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:39,400 Speaker 1: people off of the drugs, reverse gateway drug. That his 764 00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:41,839 Speaker 1: saying that he had to, he had to walk back 765 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:45,040 Speaker 1: that statement a little bit. But he's still he's still 766 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:49,279 Speaker 1: for he's not for complete decriminalization. At least he's kept 767 00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,520 Speaker 1: his stance. Right. He's never change, never know, but he's 768 00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 1: never He's tried to backtrack it a little bit, you know, 769 00:39:55,000 --> 00:40:00,080 Speaker 1: And Kamala really disappointed. She really really is disappointing in 770 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:06,360 Speaker 1: backtrash coming that political animal that causes the last president 771 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:09,359 Speaker 1: to get elected because of political animals all act that way. 772 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 1: So let's get someone who's not right, and that's I 773 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,520 Speaker 1: think would even cause that, you know whatever. I want 774 00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 1: to go back into that period, but that's my thought 775 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 1: on why that even happened, because I got sick of 776 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:20,719 Speaker 1: Democrat Republicans are all the same. At the end of 777 00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:22,879 Speaker 1: the day, They're all a bunch of line to face 778 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 1: what's gonna get me elected people, And I think, you 779 00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:28,200 Speaker 1: know that that's got to change, but that's up to 780 00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:31,520 Speaker 1: the people to vote to get them out. I think 781 00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:34,920 Speaker 1: that there's a huge void of understanding of what this 782 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:38,839 Speaker 1: plant really does until until the the companies that are 783 00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:41,640 Speaker 1: like visers and these big companies really get behind it, 784 00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:44,760 Speaker 1: which they're going to yeah, and then pay off the politicians, 785 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:47,400 Speaker 1: you know, as opposed to it organically becoming legal at 786 00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 1: the federal level. And it shouldn't take the corporate giants 787 00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:52,799 Speaker 1: to get into it and the pharmaceuticals to get into it. 788 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:54,680 Speaker 1: It should already happen. If they get in, they get in, 789 00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 1: and they probably will, but it should make no difference 790 00:40:57,239 --> 00:40:59,600 Speaker 1: at a federal level. They should. And there's it's just 791 00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:02,359 Speaker 1: it's a cop out. It's a cop out for any 792 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 1: politician in this day and age to say doing more research. 793 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:10,319 Speaker 1: It's a cop out. Period done and a story. And 794 00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:11,880 Speaker 1: you know what, Blue, I think I'm gonna have the 795 00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 1: last the last word, the last word on that. So 796 00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:15,880 Speaker 1: once you take us out, No I'm not. I'm not 797 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:19,040 Speaker 1: taking us out.
