116
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,040
Speaker 1: with him, but we were after dinner. We seen him

117
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 1: and talk to dinner. They walked in and the someone

118
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,600
Speaker 1: was like, oh, that's jam and then we interviewed him

119
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:35,040
Speaker 1: on the zoom though it was the crazy co COVID time. Yeah.

120
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 1: So that's why I was kind of such a long memory.

121
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 1: Go ahead, then, go ahead, you dad started back then.

122
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 1: I remember that now, but in the Mecca of Great Weed. Right,

123
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 1: it's in Mendocino County, so part of the Emerald Triangle,

124
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 1: and um, the event took place there for many years.

125
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 1: We went up to Humboldt and we're at the Material

126
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,559
Speaker 1: for one year, and then we moved to Sanoma County

00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,799
Speaker 1: Fairgrounds in twenty thirteen and that's where we've been ever since.

133
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,359

134
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 1: will be the nineteenth. Yeah, I mean, so I could

135
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 1: go back and just say, like, first of all, I've

136
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: been to one of the Emerald Cups. I couldn't tell

137
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 1: you when, maybe two or three of them actually, and

138
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 1: it's just like it's it's like a like a carnival

139
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:32,280
Speaker 1: with you know and stuff. No, no, no, not like that,

140
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: but I mean you know how you go to like

141
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 1: fair ground and they're just packed full of people. These

142
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 1: events are packed full of people you know, and and

143
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,279
Speaker 1: it's it's been good to see you know. It's not them,

144
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 1: it's not a carnival, but I mean I got that vibe,

145
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, just good. But there is

146
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 1: some cool things going on. I mean you could probably

147
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 1: talk about it more than I can. But they've got

148
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 1: like people lounging around. I feel like, how about like

149
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 1: a like a woodstock, because a small woodstock is there

150
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: like performers and music as well. When you say woodstock,

151
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, we've had music performers, we've had speakers,

152
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 1: we have a vending area. We always say that the

153
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,279
Speaker 1: cannabis is the star of the show because that's what

154
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 1: people are really coming there for. But there's a lot

155
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: of things to do when you do come to an

156
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 1: Normal Cup Eventum, but it did start. Actually, one of

157
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: my dad's original reasons for starting the Normal Cup was

158
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 1: going to old like state fairs and seeing that sort

159
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: of mentality and like wanting to usher cannabis into that

160
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 1: realm and so, um, yeah, it's it's not far off.

161
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: And how how difficult was it for your dad to

162
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 1: actually make that happen? I mean, you know, because you know,

163
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 1: even here right it's like southern California doesn't quite you know,

164
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 1: bless it as much as Northern California does, you know,

165
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 1: So we don't have the big events out here like you.

166
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 1: I mean they got hippie heel out there, you know

167
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 1: what I mean, thirty thousand people at that event. I

168
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 1: shot out to Alex here, we're gonna have Alex on

169
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 1: Actually we're actually interviewing Alex tomorrow night at seven pm. Ironically. Okay,

170
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: well you have to tell m I said, Hi, yeah,

171
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 1: but it's really I mean, especially nineteen years ago, I

172
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 1: think it was such a different time. I mean even

173
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 1: the first So I didn't go to the first few.

174
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 1: I my first Emerald Cup was in two thousand and seven,

175
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 1: and I had actually grown my first outdoor harvest that

176
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: same year two and so it was a really beautiful

177
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 1: experience to do a full season outdoor and then end

178
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: it with an Emerald Cup because I was like, oh,

179
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 1: I get why people want to put their cannabis up right,

180
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 1: because when you grow a full season, you do think

181
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 1: yours is the best. And so it was a really

182
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: beautiful culmination of the fall harvest there. But did you enter?

183
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 1: I did enter, and how'd you do I placed your

184
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 1: first time? Yes, But see here's the thing is that

185
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 1: we realized they rigged it because you're the daughter. No,

186
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 1: here's the thing. My dad made sure I just kid now.

187
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 1: But we realized that that was the one and only

188
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 1: time that like one of us could enter because it

189
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,959
Speaker 1: was like I grew some strawberry cough. I entered it,

190
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 1: and I thought it was fire, of course, but then

191
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 1: the judges picked I think it was like seventh place.

192
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 1: I actually have like a little Emerald Cup trophy. But

193
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 1: when they called my name, I didn't know that I

194
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 1: was going to be a winner. And it was kind

195
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 1: of the reaction in the room was like, oh, you know.

196
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,200
Speaker 1: So I was like, we were like, okay, wait, even

197
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 1: though I totally want on my own merits, it just

198
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 1: is like things as a competition. We were like, you

199
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 1: know what this we're off We're off limits. We can't

200
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 1: enter it. We got to enter another one. Yeah, yeah,

201
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 1: we have to find another convention that we have to

202
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: go to. It's like us thrown an event and saying,

203
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 1: you know, podcast of the year, Podcast the year, and

204
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 1: then we threw oh my god, guess you're the best.

205
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: If it makes you a little hard but you're a

206
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 1: younger girl at the time going oh my god, I

207
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,199
Speaker 1: just want to enter because you're so proud and happy. Yeah,

208
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: so it was really that's such a double edged sword

209
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,960
Speaker 1: for you. Yeah, it is. It is especially well, and

210
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: I know you guys have things in place right to

211
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:45,199
Speaker 1: make sure that you know, um, that people aren't cheating, right,

212
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 1: So how does that work? I mean, how do you

213
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 1: keep it? You know, a legit fair voting you know process.

214
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 1: So our flower competition, our solvents competition, and our hydrocarbon

215
00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 1: competition are all blind. So when the judges get there,

216
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: kits all they receive as a flower in a number,

217
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 1: and the competitors don't know what their number is, and

218
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 1: the judges don't know who the competitors are, right because

219
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 1: they don't see anything besides just the flower in the jar.

220
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 1: So that really lends itself to an authentic, authentic competition.

221
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 1: And then along with that too, we select a wide

222
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 1: variety of judges to be a part of our judging panel.

223
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 1: So right now we have about twenty flower judges from

224
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 1: all over the state, and then they're the ones that

225
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 1: decide who the winner is. So it's so it's pretty fair.

226
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 1: I bet people are dying to be judges too, like

227
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 1: come on, oh my god. But it's really funny because

228
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: people don't understand the work that it is to judge,

229
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 1: because it's not just like smoking weed, Like I love

230
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,200
Speaker 1: to smoke weed. I don't think I could be an

231
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: emerald cup judge. I will say that, because it's just

232
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,240
Speaker 1: like you've got to smoke it. You have to like

233
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,680
Speaker 1: actually develop like your taste palette to like discuss exactly

234
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 1: why you do or don't like something. You have to

235
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 1: come up the nuances. You have to be able to

236
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 1: form an opinion while you're high and then talk about

237
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: it with people you know, and so like for some

238
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 1: people they love now have to articulate and be able

239
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 1: to work. We're gonna take a break Taylor real quick,

240
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:07,599
Speaker 1: but when we'll come back, I want to ask you

241
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,319
Speaker 1: the question before two thousand and seven, when you were

242
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,840
Speaker 1: even younger and your dad was doing these bootleg events, right,

243
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 1: and everyone's going, hey, that is that Taylor's dad doing

244
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,240
Speaker 1: this cannabis event? Like, what was that like for you

245
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 1: as a young woman growing up as your dad's doing

246
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,559

260
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,440
Speaker 1: But before we went to Brake Taylor, I asked you,

261
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 1: how was it for you growing up knowing that your

262
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 1: dad is that guy? Like, were your friends the moms

263
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 1: when you'd go to hang out at your friends are

264
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,960
Speaker 1: they like, Oh, don't hang out with Taylor. She's the sloker.

265
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 1: Her dad has the weed. Like, what was that like

266
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 1: for you? Because he was notoriously known. Well, it's it's

267
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:37,560
Speaker 1: such a different time now, right, because I was born

268
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 1: in eighty four, and so growing up with the dad

269
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 1: that sold cannabis wasn't like we didn't talk about that exactly.

270
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,679
Speaker 1: You know, sort of like this like hidden thing that

271
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:48,719
Speaker 1: sort of happened, right like, And I kind of had

272
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 1: this like interesting discovery of cannabis because it was just

273
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 1: it's always been around. I've always known that, you know,

274
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 1: the smell, the sensation of like having people smoking around me.

275
00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 1: I've always been a part of that, right, But I

276
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,559
Speaker 1: didn't think it was like cool when I was younger,

277
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 1: necessarily because I was kind of like, I don't know,

278
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 1: it was just like a secretive thing, and there was

279
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 1: kind of like the Dare era, right, So it sort

280
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 1: of brought together this like shame melt. Yeah, Like I

281
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 1: was like my dad was like a drug dealer, you know,

282
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 1: and so hey, I just to make you feel better,

283
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 1: so and loose and so was my dad too. So yeah, yeah, yeah,

284
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:23,559
Speaker 1: it's a big feeling. So but then when you get

285
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 1: to the time we're in now and it's like so celebrated,

286
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 1: it's really it's given me such a great well rounded

287
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,439
Speaker 1: perspective of it because I it wasn't always like this,

288
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 1: you know, when I come from a time where it

289
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,320
Speaker 1: was very different. You know, It's it's funny because we

290
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 1: all feel that way, right, Like anybody that that you

291
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:43,839
Speaker 1: know it has been involved in the trade of cannabis.

292
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,520
Speaker 1: I think that there's always been like a secretive level, yeah,

293
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 1: until it starts coming out, you know, and it's like

294
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 1: my mom or my my aunt and my mom would

295
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 1: always be you know, you've been involved in this industry

296
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 1: since it wasn't cool. Yeah, you know, and and that

297
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 1: and that's cool now and now that's cool, but but

298
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:00,960
Speaker 1: you know, but back then, it was like, no, it's

299
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 1: not cool. Yeah, it was like no, man, you cannot

300
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 1: you know, run around with packs in your hand. Don't

301
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,559
Speaker 1: tell people that you're doing that or you know somebody

302
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 1: who does that, let alone your father, your your family

303
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 1: was shun you you know, because I remember I remember

304
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 1: for Christmas, you know, I think my you know this

305
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,040
Speaker 1: is my dad knew what was going on, but my

306
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:21,880

316
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 1: because at that at that point, I could see the

317
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 1: rest of the family not wanting to ask me questions,

318
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,080

321
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 1: I was rapping. Yeah, I do show show studio. You

322
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,720
Speaker 1: know what is so funny about that is that my

323
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 1: dad owned a rap label in the eighties. Was it

324
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 1: in Lethal Beat Records? Nice? Yeah, So that's what I

325
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 1: kind of like. It was in San Jose, And so

326
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 1: that's sort of like rot in San Jose. We need

327
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 1: to we have to call Tim Blake, we have to

328
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 1: call me. I mean, I went to james A High

329
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 1: School right there on the East side. I mean, for

330
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 1: goodness sakes, it's so random when you say these things

331
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 1: like this, and Santa Cruz going to open and going

332
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 1: on and we just passed right by each other. That's

333
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 1: always fun stuff. So as you did, dad, how did

334
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 1: you get into growing your own I know you said

335
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 1: you did yours in about two thousand and six or

336
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 1: seven you entered your own flower. What was it that

337
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 1: made you go and give that love of like, oh

338
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 1: my god, I want to grow my own. Yeah. Well,

339
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: so I right after high school, I moved to Virginia Beach, Virginia.

340
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: I have two older sisters they lived there, so I

341
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 1: was like, I'm going to the East Coast. I'm gonna

342
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 1: live there. And I lived there for a few years

343
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 1: until two thousand and six. My dad came to visit

344
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 1: and he was like telling me about his life right

345
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 1: and talking about the Emerald Cup and what he was doing.

346
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 1: And I was like, you're throwing a weed event off

347
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 1: the highway? Yeah, Like yeah, Like what is this at

348
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: First or something like that, or Laytonville. It's like it's

349
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 1: right area one on one is this beautiful, like really

350
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 1: wildly painted building. It's right on the highway. That's where

351
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 1: the Emerald Cup originated. It's his property. And so when

352
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:24,720
Speaker 1: you drive up the one on one. You can't miss

353
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 1: it right It's right on the highway. And so when

354
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 1: he was telling me about it, I was just like

355
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 1: what I didn't really understand, like exactly the concept. And

356
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 1: so I was like, I'm moving back to California. I

357
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 1: knew I had wanted to come. I was looking at

358
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 1: where I wanted to go, and he offered me to

359
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 1: come up and grow a full season at his property.

360
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 1: And I was like, Okay, well that's a great opportunity

361
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 1: and I would love to bond with my dad and

362
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 1: do that. And it's a lot of hard work. It

363
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 1: was definitely like full It was Gonja boot camp for me.

364
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 1: I got into that for sure, and like really respect

365
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 1: farmers with all of my might because it's it's a

366
00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 1: job that's really based in love. You know. I think

367
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 1: a lot of people, you know, especially the people that

368
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,879
Speaker 1: don't know, like if you don't know and understand you know,

369
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:08,399
Speaker 1: agriculture or even just a plant or or but but

370
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 1: they're so like someone that smokes, it's like, oh, I

371
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,639
Speaker 1: want to grow this thing, you know. And then I

372
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 1: think so many people get so involved in wanting to

373
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 1: actually be in this industry but not really understand, you know,

374
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 1: that you know, this is going to take a lot

375
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 1: of your freaking time. Oh yeah, my boys grew I

376
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,400
Speaker 1: never grew it myself either, but it takes a lot

377
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 1: of your time. And and if you if you're not

378
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 1: paying attention, your plant will go sideways. Um and and

379
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 1: so I think people will respect it once they start

380
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 1: to really play with it. Oh yeah, they'll They'll become

381
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 1: pest control real quick. Now you're best control. You're getting

382
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 1: on spider miteslf Yeah, man's real cruise that spider mites.

383
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,120
Speaker 1: And then even more than agriculture, like the lumens and

384
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,359
Speaker 1: how much light the plant you know, takes in and

385
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:59,679
Speaker 1: the photos since all the crazy stuff that goes behind it.

386
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 1: They think like, oh, it's a weed, it's going to

387
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 1: grow by itself. Yeah. No, no, Well and get to

388
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 1: the cure, right because like you're like, okay, you grew it,

389
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 1: this beautiful plant, Now cut it down and then make

390
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,399
Speaker 1: sure that it doesn't go bad, you know, because like

391
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,960
Speaker 1: you can really mess up your entire work by messing

392
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 1: up to cure, because that's what everybody wants, right, they

393
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 1: want that great nose. Yeah, and it's it's not it's

394
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:22,480
Speaker 1: not difficult. It's not easy. To. It's pretty difficult to

395
00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:24,919
Speaker 1: actually get that good nose right. You know. You have

396
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: to understand that. I think it's chlorophyll or whatever like

397
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 1: that that that comes out of it or something that

398
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:33,160
Speaker 1: creates the nose. But I mean, as so many temperatures

399
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 1: can ruin it different you know, trays that you put

400
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 1: it in can ruin it. You know everything can ruin it.

401
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 1: But er right, there's anything in there, a bug of

402
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 1: fly in there or whatever. I used to help my

403
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: dad do his harvest, and that would be the biggest

404
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,000
Speaker 1: pressure job for sure. It was the cure, right because

405
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 1: you have even the trimmers right as they're trimming it,

406
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:53,879
Speaker 1: then you're putting it back into the turkey bags. But

407
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:55,679
Speaker 1: then you can't just like let it go right, you

408
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: have to open it. You have art the turkey bags exactly.

409
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 1: That was such a craft. You guys, hearing these terms

410
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:03,879
Speaker 1: are like the first time I've heard a lot of

411
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,680
Speaker 1: these terms. I've never heard that right there, Yeah, I've

412
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:10,359
Speaker 1: never heard. It's basically like a baby. For you're talking

413
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 1: about dealing with a baby. You've got a burple baby.

414
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 1: And then so many people call these plants their babies. Yea,

415
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:16,880
Speaker 1: And now I'm learning so much more as I'm sitting

416
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,280
Speaker 1: here going wow, look at these two growers over here

417
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 1: chopping it up with all the simple lingo that you

418
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,879
Speaker 1: don't realize that goes on with us, and how many

419
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 1: small little things. Because even when you go to a grow,

420
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:31,360
Speaker 1: there's somebody there damn near twenty four seven, right, I mean,

421
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,280
Speaker 1: it's just not a oh let me just let this

422
00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 1: grow on the side of the road. You can do that, right,

423
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 1: But if you're growing premium cannabis, you're literally taking a

424
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,159
Speaker 1: look at that on a daily, damn near hourly basis.

425
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:45,879
Speaker 1: And you were you doing indoor outdoors? Both? Oh? Me,

426
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,920
Speaker 1: I was doing outdoors. But I have I have done.

427
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,520
Speaker 1: I've done the garage indoor. I had an era of

428
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:53,359
Speaker 1: that too in Santa Cruz. You know, I've done a

429
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 1: little bit of everything nice And what do you prefer? Oh,

430
00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,679
Speaker 1: sun grown all day. You know what's funny is that

431
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,679
Speaker 1: pe people that are from you and the good areas,

432
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 1: those two areas, it's Santa Cruz and the trifect that

433
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 1: those are the outside growers. For me though even for me,

434
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,719
Speaker 1: like right, I'm I'm more of a um you know.

435
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 1: If you ask me what I want to smoke, right.

436
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you know we all think all want the best,

437
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,640
Speaker 1: you know, and it's true you're always trying to find

438
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,200
Speaker 1: the best cannabis in the world. Yeah, but I think

439
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,879
Speaker 1: sun grown is it's it's just for me. It's it

440
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 1: doesn't get me quite as high, but it's the high

441
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,399
Speaker 1: life makes sense, you know what I mean, like something

442
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,360
Speaker 1: and and and that could change, don't get me wrong.

443
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 1: Like I feel like there's been sun grown cannabis that

444
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 1: gets me just as high as any other way in

445
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 1: the world. Um, but but I think there's just like

446
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 1: a I enjoy it more. I always felt like that.

447
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,239
Speaker 1: As you say that, I go back, and that's just

448
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:47,280
Speaker 1: really made me think right now, and I would actually

449
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 1: agree with it. I like the taste of it, but

450
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 1: I remember the indoor just being the stuff that just

451
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:56,399
Speaker 1: would get you like and I do love indoor right,

452
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,400
Speaker 1: Like I'm not saying I don't, but I guess it's

453
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 1: just in terms of like the culti Asian method and

454
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 1: what the sun can do in terms of expressing the terpenes.

455
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 1: I mean, that's why you see this big rush for

456
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 1: rosin makers right to go to sun grown flower right,

457
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:11,159
Speaker 1: because like they express I mean the terpine quality is

458
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,480
Speaker 1: just can be superior. Sure, I I think it's a

459
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,120
Speaker 1: it's great. So let let me ask you this, who

460
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,880
Speaker 1: are you? Right? So let's go back right and think

461
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,879
Speaker 1: about like who you are as you know somebody you know,

462
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,120
Speaker 1: Like what's your favorite movie? Okay, what's my favorite movie?

463
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:30,159
Speaker 1: The Princess Bride just came to my mind and I'm like, okay,

464
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,159
Speaker 1: it's but I would say, actually, my favorite movie of

465
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 1: all time is Lost Boys, and that's a that's like

466
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 1: a Santa Cruz like throwback, Like that's a classic. I

467
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,160
Speaker 1: could put that movie on at any point and just

468
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 1: like being shot at Santa Cruise right on the board. Yeah,

469
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 1: you know, it's funny. As we actually probably are going

470

00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,879
Speaker 1: But I've never heard of a flight just disappearing and

505
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,359
Speaker 1: we don't know where the the plane is, the people

548
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 1: that you guys are doing it in the East Bay,

549
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 1: right there in Richmond. Yeah, across the bridge. Not in Berkeley,

550
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:11,200
Speaker 1: not in San Francisco, not in Oakland. Why the good

551
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,680
Speaker 1: old rich Okay, Well, that building is beautiful. I don't

552
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,240
Speaker 1: know if you've ever have you been there? I never have, No, Okay,

553
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,760
Speaker 1: it's like a wall of way. Back when I was

554
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 1: in the Bay, Richmond was not a spot to go to. Okay,

555
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like we didn't go. I

556
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 1: went to Richmond a few times in the morning. Your hids. Yeah,

557
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:31,119
Speaker 1: and I go to Vallejo to see forty Water, and

558
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:32,680
Speaker 1: then then he moved to black Hawk, and I'm like,

559
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:34,800
Speaker 1: all right, come on, player, let's kick it over here.

560
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 1: But right, I mean, we weren't kicking it in the

561
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,360
Speaker 1: rich too much. It's not necessarily the place where maybe

562
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 1: you'd think of first to go. But I do think

563
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 1: that the building itself, it like lends itself to this

564
00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 1: like really beautiful ambiance because you can you can see

565
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,360
Speaker 1: the entire bay. It's a whole wall away, beautiful, beautiful.

566
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 1: But they've had a few cannabis events there before, and

567
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 1: we were looking at where to have the award show.

568
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 1: Last year we brought it down to Hollywood and it

569
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:57,760
Speaker 1: was so amazing. That's where we had Woody Harrelson, except

570
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 1: the Willie Nelson Award. It was like this la experience

571
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 1: that we've really been wanting to have for the Emerald

572
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 1: Cup because we feel like sometimes we're just we keep

573
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:07,160
Speaker 1: a lot of the events up north, and we've really

574
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 1: been wanting to bridge the gap between north and South.

575
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,400
Speaker 1: But are you guys going to continue to do that? Yes,

576
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 1: that's so that's what we were really hoping to do

577
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,159
Speaker 1: again this year. It didn't work out for us, and

578
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,119
Speaker 1: then we had we're looking at other friends us. We

579
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,800
Speaker 1: definitely need do that, yacause you're gonna do that good.

580
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:23,639
Speaker 1: We're a good bridge for that action. Yes, yes, that

581
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 1: would be so awesome because that's why California is a

582
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 1: big state. I keep saying it, but I'm just like,

583
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,200
Speaker 1: even driving down here yesterday, it took me twelve hours

584
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 1: to get here. It was a yeah, but it can

585
00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:35,159
Speaker 1: just be hard in terms of like trying to put

586
00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,880
Speaker 1: on events sometimes, you know, And not only that, because

587
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:42,360
Speaker 1: the Emerald Cup is so Northern California rooted, it can

588
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,320
Speaker 1: separate the state. So when you come to southern California,

589
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, the Emerald Cups come into La. It's

590
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 1: not like the Emerald Like when you go to the

591
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:52,640
Speaker 1: Emerald Cup, we get excited to jump on the plane

592
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 1: to go there. There's a different type of feel. I

593
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:57,159
Speaker 1: really believe that you because I'm from the base, so

594
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,359
Speaker 1: I have the rooted love for it. But I know

595
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,119
Speaker 1: how my folks are from here. Oh you know what

596
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 1: I mean, They're like, you know, they love me because

597
00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:04,879
Speaker 1: of me, and but you know there's a little oh

598
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 1: you're from the Bay huh exactly. Oh is that little

599
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,119
Speaker 1: right from the bay exactly? Then and then it's like, okay,

600
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:17,160
Speaker 1: but you also got blessed in La by being on radio. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

601
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 1: I'm rooting up from the streets, but it helps. But

602
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:23,120
Speaker 1: I'm just saying this street event as well, is so

603
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 1: rooted in the culture that the culture still has that

604
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 1: little yes, not not too bitter, but just a little

605
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:33,720
Speaker 1: bit total. That's that's why we had to move it around,

606
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:35,679
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, pull it out and so yeah, so

607
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:37,640
Speaker 1: you guys thought about bringing it out here, and then

608
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,400
Speaker 1: it just changed, right, plants changed right and then and

609
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:46,200
Speaker 1: then now, um, you guys are focusing on what day again, thirteenth?

610
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 1: Yet have to put on your on your calendars. It's

611
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,719
Speaker 1: at the Craneway Pavilion. We've got to go out there

612
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 1: for this one. Yeah, it's on the same building too.

613
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 1: It used to be like a forward plan and they

614
00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 1: turned it into like a tractor or tractor tank manufacturing

615
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:01,280
Speaker 1: plant during the World War Two. It's where Rosie the

616
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 1: Riveter came out of. It's this beautiful historical space and

617
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 1: it's going to be really tell us, Taylor, what people

618
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 1: could expect when they go there, What exactly are there

619
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 1: all their different contests and can people still enter, can

620
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 1: people get a booth still? Can they sponsor if they're listening,

621
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:17,840
Speaker 1: what's going on with it all. So the way that

622
00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:19,600
Speaker 1: we're doing the award show this year is actually it's

623
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 1: going to be a private event, but we do have

624
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,200
Speaker 1: sponsorships available to be a part of it if you

625
00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 1: aren't a contestant. We really wanted to throw this event

626
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,880
Speaker 1: for the contestants, for the judges, for the competitors of

627
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:33,200
Speaker 1: the competition, and so it's going to be sort of

628
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 1: a closed list. But there are events that we have

629
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 1: in the full time, the Harvest Ball, those things are

630
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:42,400
Speaker 1: obviously open to the public. But it's gonna be really

631
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 1: sick because we have our display cases. So we're going

632
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,480
Speaker 1: to have like all the entries out and be on display,

633
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 1: which that in its own right is really beautiful and

634
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:52,600
Speaker 1: amazing to look at. We're going to do the award show,

635
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 1: there's going to be some music and some things to

636
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 1: do afterwards, and so it's I mean, if you my

637
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 1: dad's like biggest thing is always the after party. He's

Speaker 1: It's gonna stay right there. Oh perfect, And the location

645
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 1: could handle that, yeah, you know, I'll tell you. You know.

646
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 1: It's like I said, I can't remember which one I

647
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 1: went to, but it was just like this long like

648
00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:28,440
Speaker 1: it was like a long uh strip, you know, just

649
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 1: vendors everywhere and stuff. It was just amazing, and it

650
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,800
Speaker 1: was so back like when I was when I was

651
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 1: walking through it, you know, and I don't remember how

652
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,400
Speaker 1: many years ago it was, but it was like I

653
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 1: felt like, damn, people were here gonna know who I

654
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 1: am because I was still hustling, you know what I mean.

655
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,959
Speaker 1: So I'm like mobbing through and I'm just like looking

656
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 1: around and I've seen a lot of people. It's like

657
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,320
Speaker 1: a high school reunion as well, like because you go

658
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:52,960
Speaker 1: there and you see a lot of peoples culture. Yeah,

659
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,160
Speaker 1: see people, You're like, bro, what up, dude? Like oh yeah,

660
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 1: and then's and then right away you're like, dude, you

661
00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:58,840
Speaker 1: gotta check out my flower you got, you know, because

662
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:02,720
Speaker 1: it's like this like you know, pride of ownership of

663
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 1: like yo, like you have to check out my flower

664
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 1: and it's okay to talk about it there. And it's

665
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,120
Speaker 1: a lot of people that are in that space. But

666
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 1: I remember like walking like everybody's like, oh, we gotta

667
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,320
Speaker 1: go to this. It's gonna be popping. And this before

668
00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 1: I even knew your dad or anything. One of my

669
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 1: buddies just got me to go out there. And I

670
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 1: got there and I'm walking through it and I literally

671
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,479
Speaker 1: felt like, oh man, I'm exposing myself, you know what

672
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:24,400
Speaker 1: I mean, Like I can't. I mean, that's how it

673
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 1: was early on, right, And I didn't even I didn't

674
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:29,560
Speaker 1: have a booth anything. I mean, I didn't know booth.

675
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 1: I was just so iconic about what your dad did.

676
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 1: And then to think that you're kind of taking over

677
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,560
Speaker 1: the realms of it. Do your other sisters look at

678
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 1: you and be like, what the hell are you doing

679
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 1: following in dad's footsteps like this? Well, I'm also the

680
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 1: youngest too, so I'm like the like I already got

681
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 1: that going for me in the lineup, you know, But yeah,

682
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:47,920
Speaker 1: I think that they they both like love and respect

683
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:49,640
Speaker 1: the fact that I've like kind of followed in his

684
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,640
Speaker 1: footsteps and it wasn't their journey, but they love it

685
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 1: for the both of us. Does everyone in the family

686
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 1: smoke weed? They not know, not necessarily, I think, like

687
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 1: a little bit like their dad. They're like, they're like,

688
00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 1: can'd of curious, They'll like smoke a little bit. My

689
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 1: sister Lindsay definitely consumes. My sister Brook kind of has

690
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,720
Speaker 1: a job where she can't so, but I try to

691
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:13,400
Speaker 1: peer pressure them as much as I possibly can. Yeah,

692
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:16,280
Speaker 1: she'll be like my backwards. I'm like, I'll send you

693
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:20,160
Speaker 1: a topical. So I'm trying to get in there as

694
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,680
Speaker 1: many times as I can, So go ahead, Blue. No,

695
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 1: I just think I think you know it's exciting that

696
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 1: your your role is If I'm not mistaken right, we're

697
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 1: basically saying your role is enhancing right now? Are you

698
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 1: starting to to be more involved than in the last

699
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,960
Speaker 1: few years or is it are you are you going

700
00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:39,239
Speaker 1: to be taking over the company? Is this what it

701
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 1: looks like for you know, have you discussed this with

702
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: your dad? Because those are hard conversations to have, and

703
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 1: are those things that you guys have discussed yet or

704
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:48,360
Speaker 1: not not quite yet, you're just playing your position. Well,

705
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 1: we we have slightly discussed. It's really interesting because he's

706
00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,520
Speaker 1: one of his big loves and passions is writing, and

707
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:56,680
Speaker 1: so he's written a book already, but he's in the

708
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 1: process of he's written two other books. So he's kind

709
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:01,760
Speaker 1: of wanting to sort of take this journey into being

710
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 1: an author Tim Blake the author, and so that's kind

711
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 1: of its own sort of path, and especially at his age,

712
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,480
Speaker 1: I feel like he's really wanting to do things that

713
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 1: he really loves and like really wants to like put

714
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 1: out things that he's really proud of. And so I

715
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,920
Speaker 1: feel like in terms of next steps, we're kind of

716
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,560
Speaker 1: sort of just seeing how things go. But he has

717
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 1: the intention to say that he's, you know, going to

718
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,239
Speaker 1: hand the baton over to me at some point. But

719
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,280
Speaker 1: I fully understand that Emerald Cup is his baby. You know,

720
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:29,560
Speaker 1: he started it, and it started before I was there,

721
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 1: and so it's kind of this like pressure element of

722
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:33,800
Speaker 1: it too, where I'm like, oh, I can't fuck it up.

723
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,440
Speaker 1: I'm like, stay around as long as you stay around,

724
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 1: as long as you want. I'm not pushing you out,

725
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, And let's talk about some of the team. Yeah,

726
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,520
Speaker 1: tell us a boy, your team. Okay, So we have

727
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:48,480
Speaker 1: a big team of women actually, and that's really like

728
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: what is like so great too about our organization. We

729
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 1: have majority of our competition team or all women. Shout

730
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 1: out Victoria Shay. She's our competition director. She's been with

731
00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 1: us since twenty sixteen. She's she's so like like knowledgeable

732
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 1: but like attention detailed orientated and that takes a lot

733
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:09,799
Speaker 1: of that skill set to run a competition. Um. And

734
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,920
Speaker 1: so we have that, and we have like Kelly Reba,

735
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:16,360
Speaker 1: Mikaela like a bunch of women that work underneath Vicky.

736
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,360
Speaker 1: And then we have Gina Galla who's our sponsorship coordinator,

737
00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:23,080
Speaker 1: another woman, and a lot of her team is women. So, um,

738
00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,680
Speaker 1: we have Catherine Annie is a woman. She's co producing

739
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:30,040
Speaker 1: the award show. Um. So Jack Reikas is actually not

740
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:33,080
Speaker 1: sorry can I yeah? Yes, okay, I was gonna say

741
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 1: Jack Reordan not Jack Raikes. I had a mental slip

742
00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:39,400
Speaker 1: there for us who wants out? Is it possible to

743
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:46,040
Speaker 1: switch it there is? Okay, Okay, Jack Reordan um is

744
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:49,080
Speaker 1: with us also who does our marketing. Um. So we

745
00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 1: have a really great team of people majority women, and

746
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:55,520
Speaker 1: so we're all like women power And is this something

747
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:57,279
Speaker 1: that you guys work on all year long? Is it

748
00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 1: kind of seasonal for everybody? How's that look for the team?

749
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,280
Speaker 1: It is all your round And it's interesting because Okay,

750
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:05,800
Speaker 1: so the competition is such a big job. Is like

751
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,560
Speaker 1: because we taken entries from all over the state. We

752
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:13,480
Speaker 1: taken entries from McKinleyville to San Diego. We have judges

753
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 1: from all over the state. So the competition component of

754
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:18,640
Speaker 1: the event itself is actually like a lot of work.

755
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:20,440
Speaker 1: But then we also planned for the Harvest Ball, so

756
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:22,400
Speaker 1: right now we're currently doing two events, and so it

757
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:25,319
Speaker 1: does keep us busy all year. I would imagine other states,

758
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 1: like you know, call it Oklahoma, New York, whatever, sitting

759
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:31,919
Speaker 1: there going we want this iconic event in our state.

760
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,560
Speaker 1: Are you guys getting hit up like that yet? Yeah,

761
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:36,920
Speaker 1: but it's so hard. We were discussing it before going

762
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 1: to a different state, right because we want to and

763
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:41,920
Speaker 1: that's been We went one time, we went to Product

764
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:44,000
Speaker 1: Earth in the UK and that was really awesome. We

765
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:45,520
Speaker 1: didn't do a competition there, but we went there and

766
00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:47,399
Speaker 1: we had a little booth presence and it was really

767
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 1: like our first little dabble to kind of get out there,

768
00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:53,560
Speaker 1: but it's really hard to do all a full another

769
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:55,480
Speaker 1: event somewhere, but that is our path. That's what we

770
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,279
Speaker 1: want to do. We want to bring Emerald Cup to

771
00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:00,360
Speaker 1: another state I think another state, and another tree and

772
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 1: everything else because this has been such an iconic spot,

773
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 1: especially for the Bay Area, where cannabis is so well

774
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:09,120
Speaker 1: known and just so well respected, and this brand that

775
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:11,359
Speaker 1: your dad is created is so well respected, and what

776
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:13,920
Speaker 1: you guys are doing keeps it at that high end,

777
00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:16,280
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. It's not like some rinky

778
00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:19,080
Speaker 1: dink spot where like, oh the what the Emerald what?

779
00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:20,960
Speaker 1: You know, it's like the Emerald Cup. It's like, if

780
00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 1: you want an Emerald Cup, then your top notch brand. Yeah. Yeah,

781
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:28,960
Speaker 1: I could see it blown up everywhere. You know. Here's

782
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 1: the you know anecdotal evidence, right, is when when you

783
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 1: could do it in Northern California, you could do it

784
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:39,480
Speaker 1: anywhere because you know, Northern California is a major market, right.

785
00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:41,839
Speaker 1: People have to realize number four marketing the country as

786
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:43,920
Speaker 1: far as population as well, but number one when it

787
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 1: comes to cannabis. So you know what I mean, I'm

788
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,120
Speaker 1: just like number four overall, when you think of population

789
00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 1: number one, when you think of cannabis even being pushed

790
00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:53,640
Speaker 1: around the cup, California of course is it. Then you

791
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 1: break down California and narrow it down. I don think

792
00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,359
Speaker 1: they d D D D you go to the northern California. Yeah,

793
00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 1: and I think that that helps as far as you know,

794
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:04,760
Speaker 1: making it popular and having an event like that. But

795
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:07,080
Speaker 1: but I think one thing's for sure is that you know,

796
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 1: I know, you could break it in southern California, and

797
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,880
Speaker 1: I believe a lot of the guys from northern California

798
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:15,040
Speaker 1: will definitely come here because they want the footprint here. Yeah,

799
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 1: you know, so it'll allow them to market with all

800
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 1: the folks here. Um, you just got a partner with

801
00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 1: the right people. I mean, there's no enough. They did

802
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:25,879
Speaker 1: it last year and what he came out, which is good,

803
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 1: what he's good and decent, But you got into people

804
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:31,880
Speaker 1: last year. They did it here. It was cool. It

805
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:34,160
Speaker 1: was our first time doing it as a theater show. Um,

806
00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:36,080
Speaker 1: so it was a learning lesson for us in terms

807
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 1: of like just stage staging and you know, just how

808
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:40,839
Speaker 1: to sort of improve upon that in the future. But yeah,

809
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:43,560
Speaker 1: what he was there, it was so surreal actually to

810
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:45,399
Speaker 1: kind of look in the audience and then see him

811
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:48,040
Speaker 1: and then um, I hadn't met him before a lot

812
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,399
Speaker 1: of other people, including my dad, had many conversations with him,

813
00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:52,080
Speaker 1: but I hadn't met him until he was on stage

814
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:54,680
Speaker 1: and he said my name, and I was like, yea,

815
00:37:55,120 --> 00:38:00,399
Speaker 1: he knows, yea, but like, what what's your any part

816
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:01,600
Speaker 1: that you go to? Like I just went to white

817
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:03,200
Speaker 1: Man can't jump that. I can't even believe I pulled

818
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:05,239
Speaker 1: that out of my ash like that, like you know,

819
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:07,520
Speaker 1: like if who is it saved my name? Then I'm like, geez,

820
00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:11,080
Speaker 1: there's so many movies. Yes, let's just look up Woody movies.

821
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: Ro nothing just comes to your head like that was

822
00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:16,960
Speaker 1: one of my favorite when he played that hero with

823
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:22,880
Speaker 1: and I've seen him in Detective showtime right, I was

824
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:27,040
Speaker 1: an HPR was shime one of those whatever which one

825
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:33,040
Speaker 1: natural killer the Detective? Oh dude, how about the other

826
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,000

828
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:44,359
Speaker 1: He was in Hunger Games. What everyone needs talk about?

829
00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:48,920
Speaker 1: One for Seers for Killers Killers was like the longest

830
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:51,400
Speaker 1: TV show as a child watching for everybody knows your

831
00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 1: name and he's sitting there as the bar back. That's

832
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 1: all when he knew my name. I'm telling you, I

833
00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:58,400
Speaker 1: don't know if I'll recover from this, just because it

834
00:38:58,440 --> 00:38:59,839
Speaker 1: was so cool. It was just it was a pinch

835
00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 1: me moment. It was really Kingpin was a good one.

836

Speaker 1: The Highwayman that was great. Zombie I left, Dude. We

837
00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,040

Speaker 1: day like that. He was in the Hunger Games apparently. Yeah,

853
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:57,080
Speaker 1: and where did you get it from? I was fifteen

Speaker 1: and I got it from my neighbor who was also fifteen,

855
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 1: but like I that's who I used to buy it from.

864
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,680
Speaker 1: way to use or smoke cannabis? Joints? Nice? I always

865
00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,759
Speaker 1: go back to joints. I'm like, I love m beverages.

866
00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:33,239
Speaker 1: Also like because I don't drink alcohol, so I'm a

867
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:36,080
Speaker 1: like a lover of a cannabis beverage. But my favorite

868
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:39,640
Speaker 1: Number one would be joints. Uh. And being the cannabis

869
00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:43,080
Speaker 1: connoisseur that you are that gets probably everything and anything

870
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 1: handed to her, so many brands just want to hear here,

871
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:51,040
Speaker 1: try mine, take mine? What is your like go to brand?

872
00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:53,480
Speaker 1: I'm so curious, like what would Taylor be like, Oh,

873
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:56,400
Speaker 1: if I'm gonna buy something, I'm gonna get this. Oh well, okay,

874
00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:58,440
Speaker 1: so I'll go off of just the most recent one

875
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:03,839
Speaker 1: that I had. A Sensia is a brand that's in Mendocino. Um,

876
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,279
Speaker 1: they have this honeydew as a strain. It's a winner

877
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 1: of Emerald Cup. And I hadn't actually smoked it when

878
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:10,680
Speaker 1: it won Emerald Cup, right, Um, but I had a

879
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:14,400
Speaker 1: friend of my Vicki Victorian. No, it's just I don't know.

880
00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:17,240
Speaker 1: Maybe the strain is from their farm. I'm not exactly

881
00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:19,720
Speaker 1: sure the lineage of the strain. But um, I smoked

882
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,319
Speaker 1: it and I got so high and it's just like

883
00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:23,279
Speaker 1: that like fun feeling, you know when something hits and

884
00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:24,880
Speaker 1: you get really high and then you're like, oh, this

885
00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:28,800
Speaker 1: is great, you know. Um, So that is a recent favorite.

886
00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:31,960
Speaker 1: But I also love Emerald Spirit Botanicals. Um they have

887
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:37,839
Speaker 1: this Pink Boost Goddess that's a very rare THHCV dominant strain. Nice.

888
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:40,000
Speaker 1: It's so random, like that question number three was the

889
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:44,320
Speaker 1: craziest place you ever used or smoked cannabis. I think

890
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:48,120
Speaker 1: flying to Barcelona doing edibles. I've done that flight a

891
00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:50,640
Speaker 1: few times, and every time I eat an edible on

892
00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:53,399
Speaker 1: that flight, I'm always like, this is a real dice roll. Yeah,

893
00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:56,040
Speaker 1: you know, because if I get too high, where am

894
00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:58,680
Speaker 1: I going? Yeah, you know, not going anywhere. You're not

895
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:00,880
Speaker 1: gonna like stay in the bathroom for very long. So

896
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:03,400
Speaker 1: but I haven't had any bad experiences, but I always

897
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:05,040
Speaker 1: think of that as like, what are you going to

898
00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:08,480
Speaker 1: Barcelona for? Okay, I was figuring, but I just didn't

899
00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:10,359
Speaker 1: know for sure. That's always fo We didn't haven't been yet.

900
00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:13,440
Speaker 1: I got to go to that just pass. It just happened.

901
00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:16,160
Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't go, but my husband was there,

902
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,479
Speaker 1: but I didn't get Is he else in the industry? Yeah,

903
00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 1: nice Yla Massi if he does massive creations. He's a

904
00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:26,800
Speaker 1: seed breeder. He's like long time like mendocino um breeder, cultivator.

905
00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:29,279
Speaker 1: He has a winner of Emerald Cup. So he was

906
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:31,919
Speaker 1: already in the game. And you met another event, Yeah,

907
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:35,440
Speaker 1: I met Emerald Cup actual way. Yes, love connections can

908
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:40,319
