It says, Blue, do I need to 104 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 3: hire someone to help me with my own personal grow 105 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 3: or can I really just do it on my own? 106 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 2: What does it take?

Was something I mean up until the day 209 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 2: he died, he was literally like rolled me out to 210 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 2: the in the VA hospital, rolled me out out front, 211 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 2: and I want to smoke a joint. 212 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 3: And so at the age of twenty two, the stuff 213 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 3: that you've seen from twelve thirteen, I mean a little 214 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 3: kid on did you say, Dad, I'm going to start 215 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 3: my own grow can you help me out with this? 216 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 2: Or was the knowledge that you brought. 217 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 3: In from learning and seeing everything once you started realizing 218 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 3: probably like fifteen sixteen. I'm just gonna imagine thinking about 219 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 3: you saying you didn't know really at thirteen, but then 220 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 3: you started to probably realize by fifteen sixteen and absorbing 221 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 3: and soaking it in, going, ah, they're using this, they're 222 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 3: using that? 223 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 2: Or do you not even soak it in? No? You 224 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 2: know what? Honestly, I think when you're young, you think 225 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 2: your parents don't know nothing. So hey, you know you 226 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 2: know what I mean? Your kids? Right now, dad, I'm 227 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 2: just taking the car.

Mark was gone, like 500 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 3: he is now probably trying to do his own thing 501 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 3: again like he's normally doing. 502 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's not working again. 503 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 3: But what's going on was I did the interview and 504 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 3: then we hit it off and hey, why don't you 505 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 3: come back next week? So I didn't even have a chance. 506 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 3: But after that show that we did together, I was like, dude, 507 00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 3: what you guys got This whole cannabis thing is dope? 508 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 2: I like it? 509 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:02,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I think there's something there, Like, you 510 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 3: guys got a good show. 511 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 2: I feel the vibe. Oh it's great. So so he 512 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 2: actually after the show, he you know, he pulls me 513 00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 2: in the next room, you know, and he's like, hey, 514 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 2: you know, is it what do you think? 515 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: You know? 516 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 2: And I'm just like, you know, it was weird because 517 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,400 Speaker 2: I I kind of had that same feeling, like, you know. 518 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 3: Even before we went to the show. I felt it 519 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 3: after the meeting. At the meeting, I was like, why 520 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 3: is there's chemistry with this dude? 521 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 2: Well, I really want it. Yeah, there was a lot 522 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,199 Speaker 2: of chemistry and so we made out afterwards. But you know, 523 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,400 Speaker 2: a story though, but that's you know, but our wives 524 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 2: know about it, so it's okay. So so the the 525 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 2: the thing that came into it though was that, you know, 526 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 2: I think we sat down and he was asking me 527 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 2: and I go, you know, let me talk to the brothers. 528 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 2: And at that time, I've always thought we should have 529 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 2: a woman's voice on cannabis talk. You know, I have 530 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 2: boobs and i've been you know, and he does have boobs, 531 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:50,360 Speaker 2: so you know that's why he's Joe Grundy. Yeah. So, 532 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 2: but but I thought about it and I said, you know, 533 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 2: you know, I think it might be a good addition, 534 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 2: and you know, let me talk to the guys about it. 535 00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,879 Speaker 2: And and so we we went back to them, and 536 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 2: right away, you know, Craig is just, no, we don't. 537 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,920 Speaker 2: We don't need nobody else on the show. And that's that. 538 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 2: And then Mark was like, well, I don't know, I mean, 539 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 2: what what is Is he an asset to the show 540 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 2: or I mean, you know, he seems like he's well spoken, 541 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 2: he kind of knows what's going on, But I'm not 542 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 2: sure either. You know. I if Big Brother says no, 543 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,399 Speaker 2: I'm saying no too. And and I go, you know 544 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,239 Speaker 2: what I said, instead of saying no, I said, why 545 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,400 Speaker 2: don't you guys do some research on the guy. Find 546 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:24,640 Speaker 2: out who he is, Understand who he is, what he's 547 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 2: done in this industry. You know, he's he's got a 548 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 2: you know, a degree in in you know, in in radio, 549 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 2: you know, in broadcasting. I said, some, you know, he 550 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:36,400 Speaker 2: knows what he's doing, and so look at the resume. Yeah, 551 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 2: I think a day later, a day later, I think 552 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 2: Craig calls me and goes, my wife knows who he is. 553 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:44,880 Speaker 2: I think it might be a good idea, but let's 554 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:48,120 Speaker 2: just give him an audition, you know. And I was like, okay, well, 555 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:50,199 Speaker 2: you know, let's give him an audition.

Yeah, he says, yeah, but let's not 558 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 2: make it a guarantee we're not sure how it's going 559 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 2: to work out kind of thing, you know. I said, Okay, 560 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:00,719 Speaker 2: let's not make him too big of a promise kind 561 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 2: of thing.

And if I'm going to do that for 676 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 2: there's nothing wrong with it, nothing wrong with at all. 677 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:24,159 Speaker 2: First of all, I want to say this. I respect 678 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 2: it and I think it's it's brilliant. One question I 679 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 2: have is it legal to just sell to? What do 680 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 2: you mean I could sell to whoever I want? No? No, no, 681 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 2: you know I'm not saying that he's not going to 682 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 2: sell to everyone? Is he? Is he considering just selling 683 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 2: just too well, he's saying that's what he's focusing on, right, 684 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 2: he's there's nothing and you know what, I think it's great. 685 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 3: This is what my focus is on. And guess what 686 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 3: that means. That means you need to go to a 687 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 3: black owned dispensary to get method Man's weed. And it's 688 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 3: kind of. 689 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 2: Cool and no wrong with no, no, yes, sure, I 690 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:57,480 Speaker 2: think it's not you know you want to get my weed? Well, 691 00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 2: I'm I'm sure he's going to get distribution in all 692 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 2: owned companies, right, but I mean, here's the deal when 693 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 2: method Man sees the check and going, here's twenty grand 694 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 2: or here's two hundred grand. No, what do you want 695 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 2: to get everybody selling my year? One hundred percent? But 696 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 2: I think it's important though, just just like you know, 697 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 2: you know, women owned businesses and and black owned businesses 698 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 2: and dealing with women wide owned businesses a lot of 699 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 2: work together, and I don't there's nothing wrong with that, 700 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 2: you know, I mean. 701 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 3: There's nothing wrong with working together. But this is what 702 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 3: he's pushing his movement on. He's and he's going back 703 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 3: to his old solo album and you know, this is 704 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 3: how he's starting at bottom line, and it's it's just 705 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 3: cool and it's good timing in my opinion, as far 706 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 3: as you know, uniting brothers and just just it's just good. 707 00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 2: Bottom line is the news. I like it. 708 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 3: I've always liked method man.

I 716 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 2: I you know, I seen my little ball ahead in 717 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 2: there somewhere, you know, back when I was I think 718 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 2: nineteen or twenty or something like that. It was a 719 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:08,040 Speaker 2: long time ago, but I did love that movie. And 720 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 2: I you know, I just love those old school urban 721 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:13,040 Speaker 2: movies that were you know, based on cannabis, like Friday, 722 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 2: and thank god it's Friday. 723 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 3: How come we haven't had a good one recently? It 724 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 3: just seems like we haven't had a really good urban funny. Well, 725 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 3: they're not good to ask, dude, because we're old, you 726 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 3: know what. 727 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 2: I've become the old fat guy on the porch by 728 00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 2: by far, because even sometimes some of this music, I'm 729 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 2: just like, oh God, what did he say? Well, I 730 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 2: tried to watch some of them, and I sit down 731 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 2: and watch some of these new shows and I'm like, uh, 732 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 2: you know, it's not realistic from when our time was, 733 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 2: but it's probably more realistic for the generation that we're 734 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,840 Speaker 2: dealing with. I mean, you think about like, you know, 735 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 2: even even these riots, right, I mean, you know, before 736 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 2: the protesting is one thing, right, but then the writing 737 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,959 Speaker 2: that's happening. I mean we've seen this and with the 738 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 2: Rodney King Rodney King, right, and and so even before 739 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 2: that though, when COVID hit, you know, it was weird 740 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 2: because I literally went cut out boards for each one 741 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 2: of my windows really did creasy, and and you know, 742 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 2: I had a measured out.

I was like, but you know, 774 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,200 Speaker 2: don't worry, Like, don't don't, don't get too worried, but 775 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 2: but but be aware. You know, it's just crazy what 776 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 2: twenty twenty has been. 777 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:35,120 Speaker 3: Like the year twenty twenty goes down in the record 778 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:38,400 Speaker 3: books just like no other year in my forty eight 779 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 3: years of life. I can go back to thinking going, 780 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 3: you know, I used to think listening to prints going 781 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,240 Speaker 3: We're gonna party like it's nineteen ninety nine, And when 782 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 3: it was nineteen ninety nine, I fucking partied hard. I 783 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 3: went hard in nineteen nine. It fell for the song 784 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 3: yeah you know what I mean such well, you know, 785 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 3: I mean, I just had a good time. And bottom 786 00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 3: line is you just look at this twenty twenty. Damn, 787 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 3: it's been a big year. 788 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:03,000 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what. It is going to go on 789 00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 2: the record books. It's gonna be in you know, like 790 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:08,000 Speaker 2: when history, you know, goes back and you know, our 791 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 2: children's children start to go through school and they look 792 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 2: at some of the stuff that's going on, which is 793 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 2: actually pretty horrible that they have to even see this 794 00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 2: and still be a part of our history. Right, it's 795 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 2: shameful because our country is better than that, our people 796 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 2: are better than that. And honest to god, I feel 797 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:27,600 Speaker 2: like we've had such a good relationship with all races 798 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 2: and there's been no color lines for so long, and 799 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,000 Speaker 2: then I actually disagree with that. I think there has been. 800 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:35,400 Speaker 2: I'm not saying that there hasn't been. I'm saying that 801 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 2: there has been, but it wasn't like in the eighties 802 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 2: and nineties. In the eighties and nineties, it was definitely 803 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 2: more segregated. It was just hidden more. 804 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:43,920 Speaker 3: And now people are feeling it more and coming out 805 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 3: with it more. And I just think it's being put 806 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 3: on the forefront rather than the oh that's just her, 807 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 3: that's just them acting just right. 808 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:56,040 Speaker 2: Though, Oh it's just not right. 809 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:59,200 Speaker 3: I think it's ignorance that has been out there killing people. 810 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 3: And just like like myself, dog, I let my hair 811 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 3: grow because I was sick of being treated.

I didn't let 814 00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 3: my hair grow, so I quit getting treated like shit, 815 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. So it's like, I don't 816 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 3: think and for me personally, going no, it's still there. 817 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 3: Why because I got treated like and I'm not even. 818 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 2: Black, No, But I mean, yeah, I know it's still 819 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 2: stronger than ever. 820 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 3: They're making a bigger point now and it's good that 821 00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 3: white folks are out there standing in marching, and that's 822 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 3: gonna make the difference because now we can all talk 823 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 3: about it openly. 824 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 2: And say, hey, man, what's going on? How do you 825 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 2: feel about this? 826 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:29,759 Speaker 1: One? 827 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:31,399 Speaker 2: Something that I want to talk to you about. Blue. 828 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 3: I mentioned this before we broke was Medmen. Medmen's making 829 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 3: some big news again as of just recently. I mean 830 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:40,439 Speaker 3: they had a big quarter that actually got a plus 831 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 3: in their quarter, right, So that's that's a good sign. 832 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 2: And we'll get a little more in detail than that. 833 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:46,640 Speaker 3: But what I really want to mention is the founders guys, 834 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:51,040 Speaker 3: we know, yes, they've stepped down. So I'm wondering breading 835 00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 3: between the lines of Medmen and the whole stock and company, 836 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:57,360 Speaker 3: because let's just face it, they raised a lot of 837 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:00,640 Speaker 3: fucking capital. They're taking private jets, they were spending that 838 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:02,439 Speaker 3: money like it was fucking bubble gum money. 839 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:05,280 Speaker 2: Whatever, let's go, let's just do it. Well that bill boards, 840 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,920 Speaker 2: they didn't got a borderline dirty. Well, I don't know, dude, 841 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,400 Speaker 2: I didn't I know them to have to step down. No, no, no, 842 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm sure they're. 843 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:14,279 Speaker 3: Gonna make some lucrative cash and still be a part 844 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 3: of but they're not gonna be on the big boarder 845 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 3: making the big decisions anymore because your decisions you've made 846 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:23,239 Speaker 3: let us into being looked at you heavy, not being 847 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:26,279 Speaker 3: able to collect more money from more adventure capitals who 848 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 3: want to put put in money to this because they 849 00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 3: were spending money not as wise as they should. 850 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 2: When I look at Medmen, I look at it in 851 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:37,960 Speaker 2: a different way, you know, and explain that to you, 852 00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 2: because not everybody would see that. And of course, excuse me, 853 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,560 Speaker 2: so I think I know where you're Well, I I 854 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:48,440 Speaker 2: look at Medmen by the way too. First off, like 855 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:51,360 Speaker 2: a monster that's not gonna go away. And I know 856 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 2: Mark and Craig's us. See Craig and I we've been 857 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,560 Speaker 2: going back get them on the show to reach out. 858 00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:58,879 Speaker 3: In Vegas, passed out face down on some fucking beach 859 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 3: couch on a pull side. 860 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 2: No, not Craig. I'm talking about Medmen. The owners Amendmen, 861 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:07,000 Speaker 2: So we should get them. They are probably too now listen, 862 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:10,040 Speaker 2: this is how I look at at Medmen. Okay, they 863 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:15,480 Speaker 2: came into the world market of cannabis. The world market. 864 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:18,880 Speaker 2: There's people that are that are big companies that are national. 865 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:21,640 Speaker 2: There's big companies that are that are just you know, local, 866 00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:23,799 Speaker 2: big companies. They made a world brand name for their 867 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:26,360 Speaker 2: stuffs like Apple. They made a world brand name in 868 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:29,800 Speaker 2: the cannabis industry. And to do that, you gotta spend 869 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:31,839 Speaker 2: a lot of money. You've got to shake and move 870 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 2: with the people that have a lot of money. 871 00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:36,640 Speaker 3: But cannabis industry Blue, they made a name for themselves 872 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 3: world Wieriod. 873 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, so we're wire the cannabis company. Yeah. And 874 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:43,000 Speaker 2: they have more stores than anybody more, you know, more 875 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:47,360 Speaker 2: you drive down freeways, streets, you see on on billboards. 876 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:51,160 Speaker 2: You hear on everything medmen, mendmen, magazines everywhere. So they 877 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:54,120 Speaker 2: take line Jimmy Kimmel, they're using medmen. I call that 878 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,040 Speaker 2: market share. And so in order to get the kind 879 00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:59,840 Speaker 2: of market share that they wanted, they had to expand 880 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,840 Speaker 2: that fast and put that much money into it. Now 881 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:07,040 Speaker 2: the investor goes, well, there's no money coming back, right, 882 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:09,479 Speaker 2: because here's what happened. All these buildings in Culver City 883 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 2: as well. They bought the whole plague. Yeah, I bought 884 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:15,240 Speaker 2: a whole big those are assets, right, So that's okay. 885 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 2: But what I'm saying is is you start to do 886 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:20,839 Speaker 2: that kind of move and and you know, the investor goes, 887 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 2: you're just spending money like an idiot buying houses. And 888 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 2: they're like, dude, I spent a million dollars okay, and 889 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:29,960 Speaker 2: out of the one hundred million, fifty million, one hundred 890 00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 2: and five hundred million that we raised or whatever, and 891 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 2: we spent a million dollars of it on us. Yeah. Okay. 892 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 2: If you look at the big picture and say, you know, yeah, 893 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:40,279 Speaker 2: they were taking jets here, you know what, they were 894 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 2: taking jets places because they probably had you know, massive 895 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:45,839 Speaker 2: people working with them next to them that they had 896 00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:48,879 Speaker 2: to impress and work with on that scale to get 897 00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:51,360 Speaker 2: where they're at. So you know, if you if you 898 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:53,200 Speaker 2: say that and you think of it as a brand 899 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:55,640 Speaker 2: and go, you know what, the market wasn't ready for 900 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,319 Speaker 2: them to be that big and that fast. They took 901 00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 2: it and they they took it and they own it. 902 00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:02,440 Speaker 2: And I don't think that they you know, and I'm 903 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:04,719 Speaker 2: not going nowhere. People think they're gonna go under Hell no, 904 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,560 Speaker 2: they're not going. They're not going anywhere. Someone will right now, 905 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 2: like I said, someone will buy them. Someone will you know, 906 00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 2: eat it up. Whatever. It's not going to be one 907 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,040 Speaker 2: of those things that just goes away. I don't believe 908 00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:14,960 Speaker 2: that third quarter. 909 00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:18,279 Speaker 3: They ended with an increase of forty five point nine 910 00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:21,560 Speaker 3: million dollars for the quarter. So you know, yes, they 911 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:23,759 Speaker 3: took some big lumps, but they're going back in the 912 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:24,360 Speaker 3: right direction. 913 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 2: You're everything you're saying. 914 00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,879 Speaker 3: I agree with debt on They're a company that did 915 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:30,759 Speaker 3: what they needed to do. People who are going to 916 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:33,320 Speaker 3: complain about them, but they spent this they did. They 917 00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:35,080 Speaker 3: fucking own the market. 918 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:37,839 Speaker 2: Well, not only that, they own the world as far 919 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:41,600 Speaker 2: as recognition out of calvery one of them parents, you know, 920 00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,640 Speaker 2: soccer moms, to the soccer moms want to go buy 921 00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:47,799 Speaker 2: weed at medmen Street. Guys to the stock soccer mom, 922 00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:50,320 Speaker 2: to the to the to the operators that are operating 923 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:53,000 Speaker 2: the facilities. They all know who medmen. They all want 924 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 2: to be in the Medmen's store. They all you know, 925 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:56,799 Speaker 2: trying to get part of that brand. Wants to have 926 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 2: their brand sold in the Medmen's store. And not only that, 927 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 2: they also so created the Apple like the Apple kind 928 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:05,880 Speaker 2: of you know stores style feel, which was very beyond them, 929 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:10,040 Speaker 2: and so they put themselves on another class level when 930 00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:12,280 Speaker 2: they did that. It wasn't just a hey we're selling 931 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:15,400 Speaker 2: cannabis type thing here. So going through that, you know, 932 00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 2: I would say the investors aren't going to see a 933 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:21,680 Speaker 2: return for another ten years, okay. And I think they 934 00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:24,000 Speaker 2: maybe sold them on a dream that hey, we'd have 935 00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,919 Speaker 2: our money back in three or four years or five years, 936 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:29,480 Speaker 2: and didn't realize it was a fifteen year investment. It's 937 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:34,000 Speaker 2: a bigger play. But I think overall, you know, and 938 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:37,440 Speaker 2: here's what happens is I think that they owe they 939 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:40,160 Speaker 2: made promises that they can't keep up to now. That 940 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:43,759 Speaker 2: is their fault. But I don't think that they you know, 941 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 2: the investors should be looking at it like and the 942 00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:48,799 Speaker 2: reason there's turmoils because now that the investors are going 943 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:50,799 Speaker 2: in going well, I'm gonna take it, you know, I'm 944 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:52,960 Speaker 2: gonna take it, so they're just taking a new control, 945 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:56,239 Speaker 2: you know, and there's just a new controller, a new operator. 946 00:39:56,440 --> 00:39:58,479 Speaker 2: But if they had said, hey, this is a twenty 947 00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 2: year play, guys, we're gonna spend you know, three hundred 948 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:04,000 Speaker 2: million dollars up front, and then we're gonna make forty 949 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:06,359 Speaker 2: million dollars a year after that for the next ten years, 950 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:08,399 Speaker 2: and we're gonna get our money back time twenty alone. 951 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:10,200 Speaker 2: In the quarter we made forty million in this quarter. 952 00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,000 Speaker 2: If they would have laid it out properly, it would 953 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 2: have been okay. I don't think they did. I think 954 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:17,479 Speaker 2: that's that was the the misunderstand a lot. 955 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,440 Speaker 3: Of people didn't look at this cannabis game and realized 956 00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:20,759 Speaker 3: how much it was really going to cost. 957 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:21,280 Speaker 2: These guys. 958 00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:24,920 Speaker 3: Sure, because you think this, you anticipate that, but bad grows, 959 00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 3: bad crops, bad building, bad this bad bad, higher taxes, 960 00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:30,120 Speaker 3: hire this hire that you're like, oh shit, I didn't 961 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:31,800 Speaker 3: realize my money was gonna go so fat. 962 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:34,800 Speaker 2: Right now anymore.
