It 334 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 2: was on four twenty, which was historical for me and 335 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 2: I believe all of us. And he actually offered to 336 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 2: bring Joe and I and the Cannabis Talk crew to 337 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 2: the Smoke Box as well and said that he'd like 338 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 2: to be on our show. So I thought, you know, 339 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 2: as much as he does in the cannabis industry, be a. 340 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 3: Great yeah, absolutely great guy. 341 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 2: One hundred percent, you know.

He also 344 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 2: owns his own dispensaries, Uh, the doctor Green Thumb dispensaries. 345 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 2: And you know this guy, really, I mean, in my opinion, 346 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 2: has been all over the cannabis industry way before his time. 347 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 2: You know we're talking about you know, when I was 348 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 2: eighteen years old or nineteen years old, Cypress Hill was 349 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 2: already talking about you know, cannabis. So with that being said, 350 00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 2: I know you guys are all fans of Cypress Hill. 351 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 2: What was your favorite song? Joe from Cypress Hill? Or 352 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 2: be Real? 353 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 4: I mean, I love be Real personally too, as I've 354 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 4: got a chance to slap hands with them many times, 355 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 4: and I've been a fan of his music before I 356 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 4: actually met him. But when I think of Cypress Hill, 357 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 4: the first thing that comes into my head is, well, 358 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 4: I could just kill him, man. 359 00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 2: There is something you can't understand. 360 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 4: Well I could just kill him, man. I mean, And 361 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 4: not only that, I remember going to concerts from the 362 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 4: Bay Area to coming out to LA and then actually ironically, 363 00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 4: where I became, you know, seeing him on a more 364 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 4: regular basis was ironically at Laker games. Because when I 365 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 4: was covering sports, I would be court side at the 366 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 4: Laker games and so would be real be real seats 367 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 4: were right next to John Blacks, who's the Lakers PR director, right, 368 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 4: so be Real seats were right two rows back from 369 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 4: the court on the left side where the Lakers. He's 370 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 4: right there. So every time I'd walk by him, he'd 371 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 4: be him, Jim Hill, all the you know sports media cats, 372 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 4: so we talk about Lakers, talk about this and that. 373 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 4: So I point it's he's just a good dude. I 374 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:06,399 Speaker 4: get so excited about everything he's doing. I'm so happy 375 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,120 Speaker 4: that you're using him as somebody that is a big 376 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:12,159 Speaker 4: influencer that's making waves. Not only that, I ironically just 377 00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:15,879 Speaker 4: the other day watched an episode of him and Berner 378 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,719 Speaker 4: on Social Club TV.

That's not Craig, That's not 397 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 6: how I heard it. You're doing okay, Craig. We've got 398 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 6: your back. We've got your back, you know. 399 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 2: So for me, for me, guys, you know, it's funny 400 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,200 Speaker 2: because I've changed this a couple of times. But there's 401 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,159 Speaker 2: a song called rock Stars, So you want to be 402 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 2: a rap star? Yeah, Lodge's Big House Pod caause I 403 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 2: really liked that song, you know, and there was a 404 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 2: lot of collaborations on that song for me with him. 405 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,680 Speaker 2: But you know, honestly, in my opinion, he's a music 406 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 2: icon and a cannabis icon and it deserves and he 407 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,399 Speaker 2: deserves all the credit we could possibly give him. 408 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 4: So you think he's bigger on one of the other, 409 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 4: because when you have said that, I agree, he's a 410 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 4: music icon. But I mean, I'm just wondering what you 411 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 4: guys thinking. This is so random. Do you think he's 412 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 4: a bigger cannabis icon. 413 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 2: No music icon, first for sure.

Yeah, he's a crossover. I mean, you know, 422 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:29,160 Speaker 2: he's a national recognized artist. A lot of people might 423 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:30,920 Speaker 2: not even know because they globally. 424 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 4: Actually he's actually a global He goes to the world world. 425 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:37,959 Speaker 2: Correct, You're absolutely correct, and you're absolutely correct. So there 426 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 2: it is, guys. Well that's who's making waves. Craig, tell 427 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:41,959 Speaker 2: us what's going on in cannabis news. 428 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 3: Let's get straight to it. Blue. 429 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:48,880 Speaker 6: With nearly two point five million confirmed cases and more 430 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:52,879 Speaker 6: than one hundred and sixty thousand deaths from the coronavirus, 431 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:57,879 Speaker 6: Israel has launched trials using cannabis to fight COVID nineteen. Yes, 432 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 6: three different studies. One study for and Inocan Farm has begun 433 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:05,479 Speaker 6: a collaboration with the Tel Aviv University to develop a 434 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:10,919 Speaker 6: treatment to fight the COVID virus using cambinemanol CBD, using 435 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 6: loaded exosomes exozomes. I have recommend to look that up. 436 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 6: It's small tinys. It's small tiny structures or cells that 437 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,399 Speaker 6: are created with stem cells and they multiply and they 438 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 6: move throughout the body. So it's it's using these exomes 439 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 6: to take the cannabis to wherever it goes in the body. 440 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 3: Interesting in Layman's terms. 441 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 6: A second study they're doing clinical trials and it's another 442 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 6: Israeli based CBD company using their R and D. They're 443 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 6: using steroid treatment. Steroid treatment, it looks like is usually 444 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:49,160 Speaker 6: a first or second line of treatment for hospitalized patients 445 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:53,919 Speaker 6: for whatever the problem may be. CBD enhances the therapeutic 446 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 6: effect of steroid treatment and treats the biomechanism affected by 447 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 6: the virus. So they're going through clinic studies for that. 448 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 6: There's a third study is exacting whether cannabis, because of 449 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 6: the anti inflammatory properties, could slow down the lung infections 450 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:13,879 Speaker 6: experienced by many COVID patients. Tel Aviv's Akalav Medical Center 451 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:17,159 Speaker 6: launched the study to test the effectiveness of cannabis and 452 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 6: treating the COVID nineteen patients with moderate symptoms. 453 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 4: So they're also doing that in Canada, they're sort of doing. 454 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 6: I almost I was gonna weave that. I was gonna 455 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 6: weave that in I saw that as well. They're giving 456 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 6: grants of one hundred thousand dollars to study. 457 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 4: From the States now now California, California. The United States 458 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 4: now is finally learning what Canada is doing, and Israel 459 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:40,440 Speaker 4: saying we need to do that too. 460 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 6: No no, no, no, no, no, no no.

Israel 489 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 5: has been on top of it, and we're we're behind. 490 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,959 Speaker 5: It's ridiculous, so far behind on that. You know, Well, 491 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 5: the research is key. 492 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 4: We've been talking about research, blue and eye, screaming it down. 493 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:15,680 Speaker 3: Your god, talk about it, about what they ever do it. 494 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 6: But what's funny is what we have a lot of 495 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:25,239 Speaker 6: is anecdotal evidence. Do we all know what anecdotal evidence is? 496 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 4: Break it down a little more, please. 497 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 6: Anecdotal evidence is when you have a study of ten 498 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 6: people and those people report that they got better, or 499 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 6: you could test them and they say they got better, 500 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 6: or it's one study. It's one thing where somebody took 501 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,159 Speaker 6: cannabis and got cured from cancer. 502 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 3: It's not. 503 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 4: Okay, so what that guy Joe has from his company 504 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 4: with all the cancer patients that he has. 505 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,879 Speaker 6: There's a study, there's an actual another study, there's this 506 00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:00,159 Speaker 6: is another less one out of Australia where the use 507 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 6: of medical cannabis in generalized anxiety disorder tremendously helps the 508 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 6: anxiety disorder. But again it's anecdotal. They take somebody, they 509 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 6: give them who has this problem in conjunction with whatever 510 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:15,719 Speaker 6: else they may be taking, and give them cannabis. 511 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:16,639 Speaker 3: And then does. 512 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 4: Anybody know what the number is to make it more research? 513 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 4: I mean when you say that, is it ten twenty? 514 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 4: I mean I don't know what you're talking about? 515 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 3: What number? What do you mean? 516 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 2: Meaning? 517 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 4: Okay, so if this is ten people they do, what 518 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 4: does it have to do to be real research? Is 519 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 4: it ten thousand? 520 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:29,639 Speaker 5: Now? 521 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 6: It has to go through pharmacy. It has to go 522 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 6: like biology chemists. You know all those brainiacs studies, and 523 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 6: they got to actually study the plant under a microscope. 524 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,720 Speaker 3: They can't they can't do that right now. If Joe, 525 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,479 Speaker 3: why do you why do you like why do you 526 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:47,640 Speaker 3: like research so much? 527 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 5: Over anecdotal evidence? You're always claiming research mark. 528 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:53,360 Speaker 3: Research? 529 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 2: It is research mark. That is research if you take 530 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 2: ten people and you actually get them to feel a 531 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:01,360 Speaker 2: certain way, and then you do it again and duplicate 532 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 2: the problem whatever you want. 533 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 6: I agree with Blue because if you listen, if you 534 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,359 Speaker 6: read this study, which I actually did, they took a person, 535 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:13,159 Speaker 6: they gave her the cannabis in conjunction for like six months, 536 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,639 Speaker 6: and then she couldn't get access to it for four months, 537 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,200 Speaker 6: or they took it away for four months, I forget exactly, 538 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:23,239 Speaker 6: and her conditions, her condition got worse. As soon as 539 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 6: she went back on the cannabis, her condition got better. 540 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 6: That's anecdotal evidence. And we have a ton a ton 541 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 6: of that right now from all across. But at least 542 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 6: now we're getting you know, I don't I'm not a skeptic, 543 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,680 Speaker 6: but the real testing when the doctors get to run 544 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 6: tests on the plant and they do whatever they do 545 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 6: in those laboratories to find out how it's going to 546 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 6: fight the gene and they break it down into genes 547 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 6: and all that other stuff and molecules, and that's what 548 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,879 Speaker 6: real that's that's where the real research is going to 549 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,120 Speaker 6: come in. I mean, we have so many now though 550 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 6: that people come to us. We've had kids get better 551 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 6: from kids get better, people get better from cancer by 552 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,679 Speaker 6: doing candidates. But you know, so so that's there. But 553 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,680 Speaker 6: for the broader spectrum, we need this kind of research. 554 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,120 Speaker 6: So instead of just Willy Nelly giving somebody, I mean 555 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 6: they you know, cannabis to try to keep COVID nineteen, 556 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,880 Speaker 6: which I don't think it hurt it. But if they 557 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 6: can harness the plant and take massive doses into these 558 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 6: little pills that would kill it. 559 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,359 Speaker 3: That would be so much what we need kill it. 560 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:26,120 Speaker 3: That's what we mean. 561 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 4: And I agree, and Marsha should go from your attacking 562 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:33,719 Speaker 4: me stage a minute ago. I love what this information is. 563 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 4: I'm not against any a little bit of information if 564 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 4: it helps one person, and that one person is displaying 565 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:41,719 Speaker 4: this is what it's done for me. I agree, and 566 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 4: I think that's great evidence to somebody else should try this. 567 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 4: I mean, that's gonna happen. I personally think, though, it's 568 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 4: gonna what I say, And when I say though, the 569 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 4: more research it's for the general population, for the non believers. 570 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 4: I mean, you got a guy like me who doesn't 571 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,679 Speaker 4: even smoke weed, who's a believer of it. You know, 572 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:00,679 Speaker 4: I've been sober to over twenty one years, and I 573 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 4: sit here and I support it like no other, And 574 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,159 Speaker 4: I go, how can I convince people that I know 575 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 4: that I've seen in AA meetings and AM meetings that go, no, 576 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,439 Speaker 4: that's the devil. I'ming you guys, it's not. Well, so 577 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 4: you're a little more open minded to it. And if 578 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,720 Speaker 4: they have that research that says, look what it's done, 579 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 4: that's what I mean. By the way, Mark, I don't 580 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 4: think that what you're saying. I agree with everything you 581 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 4: guys are saying. I just want to prove to everybody else. 582 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 2: Great point, Joe. What I want to say about this 583 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,640 Speaker 2: is that they actually came out with a small pill 584 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:30,440 Speaker 2: called marinal years ago. But the problem with Mary Yeah, 585 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 2: and it was it was supposed to be the cannabis. 586 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 2: But the problem with Marynal is it really didn't have 587 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 2: THC in it. It was actually a synthetic THC, and 588 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:42,640 Speaker 2: so people were taking this maynal instead of smoking because 589 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 2: it was the way to get off of smoking or whatever. 590 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 2: Parents believed in it. And Marinaal ended up becoming like 591 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 2: just a waste of everybody's time and money, and it 592 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 2: tried to hit the market, but it came out the 593 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,639 Speaker 2: wrong way. Again, it was a synthetic. Now we're talking about, 594 00:27:55,840 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 2: you know, the antidotical, antidotic whatever people trying to create 595 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 2: a real solution with a pill. This is amazing. You know, 596 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:07,360 Speaker 2: if we create something like that, that would be eyebrow 597 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 2: raising to the world. 598 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 3: Absolutely.

Why do I say that is 622 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 4: because the cannabis industry could finally get a big boost 623 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 4: and the next stimulus bill. Well, many companies, you know, 624 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 4: are getting benefits from the government to help this COVID 625 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 4: nineteen battle that's an effected the whole economy and everybody else. 626 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 4: Cannabis is one of the industries that's been overlooked, and 627 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 4: we were talking about it on a previous podcast, saying 628 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:41,880 Speaker 4: that's bullshit, we did. 629 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 1: Government. 630 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 4: What are you guys doing? 631 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 3: What I talking about? 632 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 4: These people are paying taxes, are paying more and more 633 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 4: and more, and not only that, how many people do 634 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 4: you guys know? 635 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 3: Seriously? 636 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 4: And I want to go around and ask you that 637 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 4: have been affected by this and the government are helping 638 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 4: I mean right now, not. 639 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 6: Right now, not a lot, because the small businesses aren't 640 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 6: getting the funds that they were supposed to get and 641 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 6: it's going to these big Why I know corporations that 642 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 6: are that are sending back.

But I mean he's talking even people 659 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 4: like don't you guys know people personally that have been 660 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 4: affected by this, Like the government needs to help out 661 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 4: these cannabis companies that need to help out the people. 662 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 4: I mean, I'm talking about normal folks out there that 663 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 4: have been paying taxes, and you know a lot of 664 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 4: these people that are working in the cannabis industry, they 665 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 4: fall in line, especially these companies that fall in line. Now, however, 666 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 4: this change is all coming about because of the Democrats 667 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 4: trying to get help from the cannabis companies. If they 668 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 4: can succeed, it'd be great. Now, I want to tell 669 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 4: you guys some numbers that have been going on out 670 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:18,880 Speaker 4: there since Colorado started selling adult use in twenty fourteen. 671 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 4: Sales in the industry for both adult and medical have 672 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 4: totaled more than eight billion dollars since they legalized it 673 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 4: out there. Eight with the b folks. Eight billion. Yeah, 674 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 4: Colorado was off to its hottest start to in twenty 675 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 4: twenty before the coronavirus pandemic hit this February. Right this February, 676 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 4: approximately one hundred and thirty nine point seven million dollars 677 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 4: was sold the weed products and everything else over ninety 678 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 4: nine percent of January's total. So this year alone, it's 679 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 4: just skyrocketed. January is big. February one hundred and thirty nine, 680 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:56,720 Speaker 4: almost fifteen percent higher than February of twenty nineteen, which 681 00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 4: twenty nineteen they made over one hundred and nineteen million, 682 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 4: almost thirty six er percent higher than the February average 683 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 4: sales of twenty fourteen to twenty nineteen. The point is 684 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 4: that I'm trying to get to you guys, they're paying 685 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 4: a shitload of money in taxes if they're making that 686 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 4: much money. So my logic what I'm trying to mass. 687 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 5: How can they ignore these numbers the federal government and 688 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 5: keep it. 689 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 3: That's what I'm illegal. 690 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 4: Exactly what I'm pointing out, Mark, And that's why I 691 00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 4: point out these numbers to sit there and say, oh, 692 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 4: I wonder what they're going. I mean, this past year, 693 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:32,920 Speaker 4: twenty nineteen, they sent a record as the state generated 694 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 4: one point seven billion in sales, which is a thirteen 695 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 4: percent increase from the prior year. Not only how can 696 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 4: they not see this from a pandemic standpoint for helping 697 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,640 Speaker 4: the cannabis industry? When are you other state's going to 698 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 4: open your fucking eyes and realize how much money you 699 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 4: can make. Look what Colorado's making, Look what California's making, 700 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 4: and the black market's making even more. For God's sakes, Joe. 701 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 2: I agree with you, But I think the problem is 702 00:32:58,040 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 2: is that a lot of these states don't want to 703 00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 2: open their eyes is because they feel that there's an 704 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 2: ethical problem with it, which which you know, they're from 705 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 2: the old school. They come with these towns. It's an 706 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,480 Speaker 2: ethical thing. It's not about money. Second thing I want 707 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:12,040 Speaker 2: to say is this is that right now, if you 708 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:14,080 Speaker 2: if you think about all these companies that have made 709 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:17,360 Speaker 2: this money, not all of them are paying taxes. As 710 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 2: Craig said before, like a lot of these guys owe 711 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 2: taxes to the ying Yang. They just haven't really paid 712 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 2: their taxes yet. So in other words, they haven't really 713 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:27,720 Speaker 2: seen the tax money. They see the revenues, but not 714 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 2: the tax money yet. 715 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 4: So as that starts to come, we'll have quarters, it'll 716 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 4: start to show a much bigger profit, and I think 717 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 4: they'll start to wake up. As you say that, Blue, 718 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 4: it makes me think of any and every other company 719 00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 4: out there that we've seen that people have had tax 720 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 4: problems with just because a few cannabis companies haven't paid 721 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 4: their damn taxes. People don't use that as propaganda and 722 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 4: act like, oh, they're not doing it. How many other 723 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 4: companies do we know out there that are in the 724 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 4: same boat, you know what I mean, and that are 725 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 4: riding off everything and doing everything else people, but no, 726 00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 4: people are paying every industry they're paying too much. 727 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 5: Well, anybody, anytime, anybody can you know, find a reason 728 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 5: to attack cannabis and the cannabis business.

Plane view? 973 00:45:56,080 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 5: That's right, plane view, which means no warrant is needed 974 00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:03,279 Speaker 5: and they can go ahead and search the vehicle. But 975 00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:08,280 Speaker 5: first the officer ran Cruz's license, which came back suspended, 976 00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:12,920 Speaker 5: and he also learned that Cruz had warrants involving driving 977 00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:17,280 Speaker 5: under the influence and drug possession. So the officer conducted 978 00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:19,880 Speaker 5: a search of the car. He found that one of 979 00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:23,720 Speaker 5: the men had eaten the joint and when checked, parts 980 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:26,239 Speaker 5: of it were found in his mouth.
