136
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 1: as well, this restaurant game. I really want to stay

137
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 1: there too. But I want to touch on because I

138
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:53,239
Speaker 1: realized that before you got the restaurants as well the family,

139
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 1: did you start doing a bunch of real estates. I did,

140
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:57,839
Speaker 1: so I became I got I got an industry game,

141
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,360
Speaker 1: the real real estate game. Kind of early, um, I

142
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 1: saw an opportunity up in certain areas where nobody wanted

143
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 1: to go. I went up to Palm Bale, Lancaster. Rosemond

144
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 1: Um actually gave the first I don't call him entrepreneurs

145
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 1: of the wheat industry, but some of my shopping centers

146
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 1: gave them the opportunity to open up cannabis stores where

147
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: nobody else would. So we still have one up in Rosamond, California.

148
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 1: And Um, they're still there. They've been there for years.

149
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 1: Um and Pomona I did the same thing, said, you

150
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 1: fought me tooth and nail, Sam, we can't put him in.

151
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: And I saw the future. I thought, not that I

152
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 1: can't predict what's gonna happen, but I saw that it

153
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 1: was a great thing they're trying to do and help

154
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 1: so many people out. And I said, why not, let's

155
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 1: give him a shot, and everyone, all the other landlords

156
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: will turned them away saying no, we don't want to

157
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 1: take the risk on the cannabis place. And now like

158
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 1: one's gotten to you right now. Yeah, And it's funny

159
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 1: because cats like you are the guys that are actually

160
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 1: helping this community like that. And it's guys like you

161
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 1: that are tycoons in the real estate that talk about

162
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 1: that game of buying that you know how you how

163
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 1: you done your due diligence and being so profitable and

164
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: being so people laughed at me. I mean, you know,

165
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 1: coming from certain different areas, they said, oh, why do

166
00:07:58,480 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: you want to live in Palmdale? Why are you up

167
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: in Lane cast or why are you in Victorville, and

168
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 1: so what's wrong with it? You know? I had a

169
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 1: saying growing up. You know, my dad would tell me,

170
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: he said, buy as much land as you can now

171
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: because God's not making anymore. I'm not kind of stuck

172
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 1: in my head and resonated with me forever. That's a

173
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 1: good one. So I kind of seen that whatever opportunity

174
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: can get my hands on and try to buy a

175
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: little bit here and there, and we give back, you know. Unfortunately,

176
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 1: I had a situation with some family members that said

177
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 1: I give too much money back the charity, not to

178
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 1: help out too many people, and so we've kind of

179
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 1: split our ways. But I think that's a big deal.

180
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 1: I think when God blesses you in certain ways and

181
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 1: you make success in your life, it's more successful to

182
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 1: kind of, you know, to give back to people who

183
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,079
Speaker 1: well don't have as much. It's funny you say that,

184
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 1: because I, you know, I I often you know, have

185
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:40,199
Speaker 1: conversations with younger, mentoring some of the younger you know,

186
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,439
Speaker 1: kids around here and stuff, and I'm like, listen, you know,

187
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 1: being a boss has nothing to do with the nice

188
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 1: watch and all the fun stuff that you that comes

189
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,559
Speaker 1: with it. It's actually employing people and helping their families.

190
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 1: And when you start to really help and develop people's families,

191
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 1: they start to march for you, you know, and then

192
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 1: you have people marching for you, and then you know,

193
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 1: you become a servant yourself. And and I think it's

194
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 1: super important to understand that because you know, with with growth,

195
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:04,319
Speaker 1: you know comes from heavy responsibility. And if you have

196
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: the right responsibility and you're doing the right things, I

197
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 1: think it comes back to you ten I know it

198
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 1: comes back to you a tenfold, you know. So I

199
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 1: couldn't agree with you more. I mean, life is short,

200
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 1: you know. I've been through, like we all have been,

201
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,959
Speaker 1: numerous tragedies in the last four years. Some stuff I

202
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,199
Speaker 1: can talk about and someone's too hard to talk about.

203
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 1: And it's an eye opener, definitely, Anye open free to

204
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,719
Speaker 1: google and folks, it's not a joke. He's got a

205
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:26,440
Speaker 1: lot of things. Yeah, it's a definitely an eye opener

206
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 1: in life and you realize what's important to you, you know,

207
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,599
Speaker 1: and it's success is about the people you're with, with

208
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 1: the family you're with um and helping everybody out and

209
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:35,559
Speaker 1: just treating everybody equal. I think that's what the whole

210
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 1: worlds about it. We're all missing right now. It's everyone's

211
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 1: inform meet to each other, you know. And I see

212
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 1: it in my kids school sometimes the bullies, and as

213
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,679
Speaker 1: we get older in life, it's there's no more room

214
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,439
Speaker 1: for conversation. We're having a conversation right now. I know

215
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 1: my way, you know your way, and nobody wants to

216
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:49,880
Speaker 1: meet in the middle, you know. And I that that's

217
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,559
Speaker 1: what's kind of sad about what's going on. But on

218
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:54,559
Speaker 1: the good side, we can still smoke some weed and

219
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: have some fun and and make things happen. So, you know,

Speaker 1: giving man in the community that I live in. And

257
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,280

00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 1: Damn it. Why did I bring the food? Explain the

320
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 1: story of the restaurant. It's been owned since the nineteen

321
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 1: seventies family restaurant. Give us the story of Tom's. I'll

322
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 1: give you the quick rundown. My father immigrated here from

323
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,200
Speaker 1: Greece years ago and came over and uh got into

324
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 1: the first location. The reason why it's named Tom's and

325
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:57,320
Speaker 1: we don't have a Tom in the families because he

326
00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 1: was the first guy that gave him his job when

327
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 1: he came to this country, No way he did. And

328
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 1: he promised him to build him an empire. And so

329
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 1: he stuck walking and kept going and going and going.

330
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 1: And then when we got into the business, there was

331
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 1: fourteen locations, and I got two brothers. When we kind

332
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 1: of got in together and everybody was getting along and

333
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,040
Speaker 1: working and doing our thing. And then we built one

334
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 1: one after the other. We'd buy a piece of real

335
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 1: estate and build a restaurant. Buy a real estate, build

336
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 1: a restaurant. Then we would buy a restaurant, build a

337
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 1: shopping center around it. Buy a restaurant, build a shopping

338
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 1: center around it. So he kind of got into the

339
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 1: real estate game. That's all I got started with it,

340
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 1: to be honest, and I realized there was more to

341
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 1: be had if you owned the dirt that you were

342
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: on the founder. Absolutely, Yeah, very close, very similar story,

343
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 1: different scale, right, which which to me, I feel like

344
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 1: every person in the world should watch that movie. It's

345
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 1: a great movie. It's a great movie. It just and

346
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 1: it's unfortunate you gotta watch it. And yeah, and it's

347
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 1: very unfortunate too, to be honest with you, to to

348
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 1: how it ended up, you know, for them but in

349
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 1: the end it just shows you, like the reality of

350
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 1: what they just didn't know it and and and they

351
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 1: should have known and and and you know, education, so

352
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: it happens. You have to watch the Founder. It's it's

353
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 1: it's it's in a new movie over here. It's about

354
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 1: the story of McDonald's. Oh i've seen that, Yes, that's Alix. Yeah. Yeah, yeah,

355
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 1: it's one of the best movies ever ever, dude, I

356
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 1: mean especially I mean for me, dude. Like I said,

357
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 1: I've watched it five times, you know, just I'm into

358
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. It's really good. And you always

359
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 1: when you watch it, you pick up something different every

360
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 1: time and realize you actually he sometimes if you watch

361
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,120
Speaker 1: it in a certain way, he can be a villain too, Yeah,

362
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,160
Speaker 1: because he could be like, oh, he stole that company

363
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 1: away donald brothers. Yeah, but then you see how his

364
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 1: mind worked, and it would have never gotten to where

365
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,760
Speaker 1: it's at today. Yeah, you can see. It's it's sad

366
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 1: for them because they didn't have the education, but in

367
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 1: the end, they again they needed that in order to

368
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 1: get to where they were at. They were very small minded,

369
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 1: you know, they just had this little idea of this

370
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 1: little machine that they created, but they didn't know how

371
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 1: to use the expansion in their mind. So once your

372
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 1: mind expanse from the truditional FORMU, it will never come back.

373
00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 1: Look look at look at what you guys are doing

00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 1: Give an opportunity to people making it out there, making

379
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 1: people aware of the benefits of of cannabis and the

380

00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:26,920
Speaker 1: we'll definitely talk about that and what that looks like,

387
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:28,879
Speaker 1: because I would love to promote your spot and do

388
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:32,879
Speaker 1: what we can do together. I know it, but I

389
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:37,119
Speaker 1: mean it, and your restaurant is part of this community absolutely,

390
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:39,360
Speaker 1: So it's not like it's not it's more my mic

391
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 1: that sounds funny than everybody else's f y goldie. Um,

392
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 1: as you say, this story now THIRTIESO locations and it's

393
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: just grown. As we talked about the movie The Founder,

394
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 1: how does it feel now when you see that? And

395
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,159
Speaker 1: if you guys have employed how many people and how

396
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 1: many like you? Just look at what you guys have

397
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,680
Speaker 1: done first, so many people. I mean, if you go

398
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,200
Speaker 1: over the years, you know hundreds of thousands of people

399
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 1: have been employed in the company at some time. Um.

400
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 1: You know. The scary thing about being a business owner

401
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 1: is not necessarily making money, it's making sure that your

402
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:13,920
Speaker 1: employees are taken care of. I think I think the

403
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:18,199
Speaker 1: success we've had is because we've a take great care

404
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,879
Speaker 1: of our staff. But our staff isn't employees to us

405
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 1: their family. That can be a cliche. People be like, yeah,

406
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 1: you're full of ship. No I'm not. I can name

407
00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 1: every one of my employees by first name. I can

408
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:28,240
Speaker 1: tell you where their kids are going to school. I

409
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 1: can tell you what's going on them. I take the

410
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:31,439
Speaker 1: time to get to meet them and talk to him

411
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:33,480
Speaker 1: on a personal level. I don't lock my door to

412
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 1: my office for example. What why I say that is

413
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 1: they come knock on the door and talk to you

414
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 1: whenever I want. I go to a restaurant when it's busy.

415
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 1: I put an apron on when I worked the drive

416
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:42,119
Speaker 1: through because I love it. It's all I did as

417
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 1: a kid. I didn't know any better. My dad had

418
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,879
Speaker 1: me grinding, you know, peel and potatoes, making chili in

419
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 1: the back. Had to figure it out because my dad

420
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 1: was old school. He told me he would, he would,

421
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,440
Speaker 1: he what's all he'd He built this company off his

422
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,399
Speaker 1: sweat and blood, not me, right, We took it and

423
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,119
Speaker 1: grew with it, being educated. But he would tell us,

424
00:18:58,160 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 1: he said, how can you teach your employees how to

425
00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:02,280
Speaker 1: do something if you can't do it yourself? So grab

426
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,879
Speaker 1: a broom and sweet And that's how it got started.

427
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 1: You know that we slowly go through stuff, you know.

428
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:08,680
Speaker 1: I hope you know, God gives him a hundred and

429
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:10,440
Speaker 1: fifty more years to live. He's a great man. You

430
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:11,919
Speaker 1: know my mom too. I mean they were with us,

431
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,639
Speaker 1: still with us a lot older now definitely, did you

432
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 1: know they're they're up there, you know, but they're doing

433
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 1: the best they can. They do a lot of charity

434
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 1: work still at their downy No, no, no, they're down

435
00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:25,680
Speaker 1: south now, they're they're uh change communities a little while

436
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 1: I bil for some personal reasons and got somewhere else

437
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,560
Speaker 1: so they had to. Um. But you know they're doing great. No,

438
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 1: life is good now, you know, you know, with with

439
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:37,120
Speaker 1: with getting those lessons from your father. Again, it's their pricess.

440
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 1: I I look at that as you know, they're your mentors,

441
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 1: you know, like especially being in the family business. You know,

442
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,760
Speaker 1: a lot of people have the opportunity being family business

443
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 1: and squander it. You know, they don't care about it,

444
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 1: or they just you know, generally they say, a lot

445
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:53,120
Speaker 1: of the next generations won't even have uh the company

446
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 1: within you know, several years after their parents die because

447
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:57,919
Speaker 1: they don't want they don't know it, and too they

448
00:19:57,960 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 1: don't care about it. They're just coming in there and

449
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:01,480
Speaker 1: get whatever money out of it and boom. So it

450
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:03,919
Speaker 1: sounds like you're creating a tradition. Do you have children yourself?

451
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:06,400
Speaker 1: I do so I have two boys. Um, what you're

452
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,880
Speaker 1: saying is very true though so my in my industry,

453
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 1: most of the people now have sold off everything. So

454
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 1: the Greeks on a lot of the restaurants here in

455
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 1: the l A area, whether it be like a fantastics

456

00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 1: they're they're all kind of taking what to What you're

459
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 1: saying is they're taking what their families gave them and

460
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:34,959
Speaker 1: they're just selling it off and saying, hey, I'd rather

461
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 1: just move on and cash out where I'm looking a

462
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:38,920
Speaker 1: little different. I enjoy what I do still. You know,

463
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:40,680
Speaker 1: if there comes a point and my kids don't have

464
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:42,479
Speaker 1: to do this, they may say, hey, Dad, I want

465
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 1: to be a librarian. I want to be a school teacher.

466
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:46,920
Speaker 1: And God bless them whatever they do, because the most

467
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 1: important thing for me for my family is that they're

468
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 1: good citizens and they respect people. I don't care about

469
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 1: your color, your race, your creed, your gender. I don't

470
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 1: think anybody cares. We just want you to be good

Speaker 1: with the you know, the fortunes and the follow up.

477
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 1: You know, you have to follow up with whoever you're

478
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,239
Speaker 1: dealing with. You can't just take someone's money and then

479
00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 1: not follow up with them. You've got to stay on them,

480
00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:21,440
Speaker 1: work and caring, communicate through that process. Um, we create

481
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,200
Speaker 1: the bear of life. Believe energy, action results. If you

482
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 1: believe in something, there's energy. With energy, there's action, with action,

483
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 1: there's results. It's the bear of life. We all live

484
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,160
Speaker 1: by it, you know. Um. You know, it's little things

485
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,919
Speaker 1: like that that we've instilled into our team and almost

486
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:38,440
Speaker 1: everybody here can you know, discuss them and and we're

487
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 1: like a family here too. So I I align with

488
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 1: a lot of your your you know, core values. I

489
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,399
Speaker 1: could see that you know, just uh, your intention is

490
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 1: is kind of what we live by here. And not

491
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 1: only that. To give him kudos, I know of a

492
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,360
Speaker 1: story of a young gentleman who was a shining star

493
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 1: at the country club and is now a manager at

494
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 1: your restaurants, are running your rust is not a couple

495
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:03,359
Speaker 1: of that is a true story. I mean to just

496
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,359
Speaker 1: to give you credit of going no, does he do this? No,

497
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 1: he grabbed somebody that was working at the country club

498
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,720
Speaker 1: that was a standout like guy and now that guy's

499
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 1: running a bunch of his restaurants. Yeah, I saw I

500
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 1: know what used his name, but I saw a star

501
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 1: and that kid, and I know he wasn't gonna get

502
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:19,560
Speaker 1: the chance in corporate America. That what he deserved to

503
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 1: get to. And now he he rock and rolls for me.

504
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 1: He's he's pretty good. So you have any opening, I'm

505
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 1: coming over coming over you always got times have been tough, guys,

506
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 1: Times are to This whole COVID thing really screwed up

507
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 1: a lot of my industry. I mean, he got really

508
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:37,399
Speaker 1: hard for people to to stay stay in business. Were

509
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 1: you guys were affected heavy by it too? Absolutely? I

510
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 1: mean I think that if you didn't have a drive

511
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 1: through during COVID, you pretty much shut your doors. I

512
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:46,640
Speaker 1: mean you're in big trouble. Did you see a big

513
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 1: spike with the uber eats? And are you you know,

514
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 1: working with all those guys, is that helping or is

515
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,480
Speaker 1: that uh? It kind of does a little bit of both.

516
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I think there's some of the And again

517
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 1: we work with different ones, so some are better than others. Um,

518
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,679
Speaker 1: I think they all have their benefit though in one

519
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,240
Speaker 1: way or the other. So you gotta it's tricky finding

520
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,119
Speaker 1: the right demographic with the right service, But definitely people

521
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,639
Speaker 1: like to stay home and get some stuff. It's it's easier,

522
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 1: it's more convenient sometimes, but it's definitely cheaper, believe it

523
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,359
Speaker 1: or not, right now to eat out than it is

524
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,399
Speaker 1: to go to the market. And it's it's it's actually

525
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,840
Speaker 1: that's that's that's true. Think about this. I have a

526
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 1: special right now. It's bacon and eggs, hammon eggs or

527
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 1: sausage and eggs. Right, so two eggs, house browns and

528
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 1: toast and free coffee for seven nine. Think about that.

529
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 1: You can't get that at home. You can think the

530
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 1: whole setup. I was like, oh yeah, seven bucks is

531
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 1: great with free coffee with st seven bucks. Yeah, it's

532
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 1: real talk. Yeah, so it's really what's your favor my

533
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 1: bias to my pastrami sound cheese fries. Yes, you know,

534
00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,159
Speaker 1: we have huge breakfast. I mean everything is good. The

535
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 1: real thing that truthfully we can say is it's all fresh.

536
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:03,680
Speaker 1: And people say everything is fresh, No, it's not. We

537
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:07,639
Speaker 1: literally have nothing canned, so everything starts from scratch every day.

538
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:09,920
Speaker 1: So that's kind of a includos to the people that

539
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:11,639
Speaker 1: really do that. You know, you can see that you

540
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 1: can taste it. There's a different loving it. It's just different,

541
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 1: you know, it's different. It's not just they're not just

542
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 1: boiling the meat. No, they're like they're not gonna tacol

543
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:21,119
Speaker 1: about But I don't know if I can say that,

544
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 1: but yeah, you say, whatever. The good thing is is

545
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:26,200
Speaker 1: that you're doing quality food and you have a cool location.

546
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 1: Like everything now is designed the same look, the same way.

547
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:32,119
Speaker 1: Are you guys gonna open more of this? Is it?

548
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,200
Speaker 1: It just feels like it's a cool chain that needs

549
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:38,360
Speaker 1: to be everywhere around the world because the franchise it's

550
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,239
Speaker 1: only California way, it's all you know. So we've been

551
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,359
Speaker 1: asked the franchise and there's some stuff in the works

552
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 1: if we ever get to that point. The problem is,

553
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 1: I'm still very picky about the quality. And when you

554
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 1: get into franchising sometimes you lose the quality, so believe

555
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 1: it or not. So that's why it and out. It's

556
00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 1: not a franchise that's family owned family so there's something

557
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,200
Speaker 1: to that. Still having the same brand, the same quality,

558
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,239
Speaker 1: that's a that's a big deal for us. And if

559
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,680
Speaker 1: we can maintain that down the road with now bringing

560
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 1: new investing owners inside. Sure, but you know, if you

561
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,639
Speaker 1: lose that value again, you start to you know, create

562
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:13,680
Speaker 1: your brand starts to become fast food, you know, versus

563
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 1: A and someone else starts doing weird stuff. As this

564
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,119
Speaker 1: show is Cannabis Talk one oh one, and cannabis has

565
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 1: made such a big impact out there. Has your company

566
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,800
Speaker 1: ever even thought about doing the hemp and fused or

567
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:32,120
Speaker 1: using the CBD and the oils are having an option

568
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:36,119
Speaker 1: that's or could that even be an option for services

569
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 1: like yours, because it's not even possible to even sell

570
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 1: it at that level. So we actually do have two

571
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: drinks right now that are hemp based drinks. Do you

572
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:45,880
Speaker 1: we do? And I want I guess I can say.

573
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,640
Speaker 1: It's called Tonic two O N I K. And we're

574
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,159
Speaker 1: experimenting with right now two locations in Placentia and in

575
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 1: Anaheim Hills. So that gentleman's a good friend of mine

576
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 1: that started that company. It's the two of them and

577
00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:58,679
Speaker 1: so we're kind of playing around with it right now.

578
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:00,159
Speaker 1: So to bring them on the show to from that,

579
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,160
Speaker 1: we should, So Richie would love to be on the show.

580
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,280
Speaker 1: Is a great guys, very very involved in that industry. Um,

581
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:09,280
Speaker 1: weren't they just at the club at the Yes, what

582
00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:11,399
Speaker 1: they were there? That was them? I had one on

583
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 1: the part three. Yeah, that's the Tonic brand. So they

584
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:15,560
Speaker 1: we're kind of playing around with it and kind of

585
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,440
Speaker 1: seeing how it goes and sell them really good. So

586
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 1: it's it's a good was enjoyable. I really liked it.

587
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:27,160
Speaker 1: I yeah, right, I'll you know what I'll bring. I'll

588
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 1: bring kase you like a good chase tomorrow. That's funny, gold, angry,

591
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 1: moving right now? It's booming great, So there's a huge

592
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:45,440
Speaker 1: connection to that. So, like I think the industry for

593
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:47,919
Speaker 1: somebody outside of it, it's kind of taboo sometimes, right,

594
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 1: Like it's still like they're they're scared to say, like,

595
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 1: oh I I smoke weed, or I know people that

596
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,240
Speaker 1: smoke weed, or I sell at HIMP product or a

597
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 1: CBD oil mean sebdal little chain stuff for me, right,

598
00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:59,159
Speaker 1: I mean that was huge how much pain I was in,

599
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:01,199
Speaker 1: you know this time last year when I couldn't get

600
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 1: out of bed. So you know that's let's you want

00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,840

00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 1: a second with the food and doing that. Because you

607
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:20,640
Speaker 1: were saying that so many people, I feel like Tom's

608
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 1: and cannabis is hand in hand. I couldn't agree with

609
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 1: you more, to be honest, And not only that, it's

610
00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 1: so cultural, like it's part of the halftime show with

611
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 1: who hip hop? Who smoke weed? And it's part of

612
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 1: that element, Like it's so funny that we meet like

613
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 1: this and know each other and this is your family,

614
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,680
Speaker 1: and this is just gonna be a wonderful relationship because

615
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 1: the hand in hand camaraderie. If I feel like what

616
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 1: you guys have done to support so many communities with

617
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 1: jobs with great food exactly an historical Los Angeles. I mean,

618
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:56,359
Speaker 1: you know, you know, like and there's companies here and

619
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: I won't say their name, they're very similar. You know,

620
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 1: they have little chains here. Um, but you know Tom's

621
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,680
Speaker 1: has been around forever. I mean, if you know, you know,

622
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 1: you definitely ate there, Like if you grew up where

623
00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 1: I'm you don't miss that, you know, you you know,

624
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 1: you don't come down here. He's been around him, you know, Yeah,

625
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:13,400
Speaker 1: it's all around him. I mean they were everywhere. It's

626
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,719
Speaker 1: like sometimes you'll just go to eat at Tom's, I mean,

627
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,240
Speaker 1: you know, and and being here in Orange County, I

628
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,119
Speaker 1: don't see it as much, you know, I'll tell you that.

629
00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 1: But when he when he said that, I'm like, oh ship,

630
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,040
Speaker 1: I fucking ate that all my life. Like, we used

631
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 1: to drive from the I E. To get the toms.

632
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:30,719
Speaker 1: They don't have those out there, so we brought some there.

633
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:36,840
Speaker 1: Now we're at two and Pomona, so that's county, but

634
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 1: it's still right there on the border. Right now, on

635
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 1: the border, I'm slowly making my way. Yeah, I gotta

636
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,680
Speaker 1: get there. Yeah, No, I think Corona is ready for one.

637
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 1: You know. Corona is a great town for that. Yeah.

638
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 1: I stayed out of certain areas because I got buddies

639
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,440
Speaker 1: that owned stores in those areas and gals and stuff.

640
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 1: One other guy owens I'll say it's called Oursburger is great,

641
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 1: great spots. So I try not to really step on

642
00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 1: people's toes and stay away from each other's a little schools.

643
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 1: There's plenty of room. Always been in my eyes, just

Speaker 1: not feeling well, life can change quick and put you

679
00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 1: in a dark place. Uh to touch based on everything

680
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:57,560
Speaker 1: without giving out names. We how did a tragedy at

681
00:30:57,600 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 1: our house years ago? We lost somebody in the pool,

682
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:03,440
Speaker 1: a child to pool, and so what it started causing

683
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 1: was anxiety and pain and hurt. And then put that

684
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,480
Speaker 1: together with an injury that I had suffered. I had

685
00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:13,760
Speaker 1: no way up right, I didn't know what else to do,

686
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 1: couldn't turn any more. Doctors reached out to my buddy

687
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 1: Joe here and said, hey, I need some help, man.

688
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:19,480
Speaker 1: You gotta fit, you know, we gotta figure out what's

689
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 1: wrong with me. I gotta get out of this funk.

690
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:24,760
Speaker 1: And uh, Joe brought me over some products and uh

691
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 1: not to get put myself back into that dark place

692
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:29,760
Speaker 1: because it's really hard to go there, you know, to

693
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 1: be honest, who it's hard, But sorry for that that. No,

694
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:33,800
Speaker 1: it's it was a tough time for us. I mean,

695
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 1: I like we had, we had that tragedy. Then I

696
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:37,719
Speaker 1: lost my father in law a year later, tragedy out

697
00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 1: of nowhere. So I had to that no one does.

698
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 1: So everybody heard a lot of us heard about the

699
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:46,640
Speaker 1: first one. Yeah, that was news. Yeah, that was a

700
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 1: tough thing to swallow. And again I'm not gonna use

701
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 1: any names and going they know they can look it up.

702
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:53,920
Speaker 1: But it's that that changed a lot of people's lives forever,

703
00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 1: just like people do that, you know, fight diseases and

704
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,600
Speaker 1: have cancer and have certain things that go on in life.

705
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 1: And more power to the people that can beat that

706
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 1: with you know, the the lifestyle changes, the mental changes.

707
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 1: That's what I needed a little bit and reached out

708
00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 1: to Joe and said, Joe, I needed help, but I

709
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 1: got this situation going on and came right over and

710
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 1: you know, gave me some stuff that really helped me

711
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:14,080
Speaker 1: calm down and help me get out of what I

712
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 1: needed to get to to get the right medical attention

713
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 1: to to fix it. So I tell people all the time, man,

714
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 1: you know, it looks good at life. You never know

715
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 1: what someone's been through and what they're going through. I mean,

716
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,960
Speaker 1: we all have nice cars and nice places to live,

717
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 1: and we you know, we're living and absolutely all do Bob,

718
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:31,880
Speaker 1: I'm guilty. We all we all take it for granted.

719
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 1: I mean, you know we're gonna drive home today and

720
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 1: see our wife and kids enjoy it. I's telling Ray yesterday, man,

721
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:38,520
Speaker 1: I said, Man, I woke up five thirty this morning,

722
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 1: went to the gym, dude, and and I, you know,

723
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,800
Speaker 1: I worked out, and I said you should too. And

724
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:46,640
Speaker 1: we need to not forget how you know amazing that

725
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 1: our life is. And we spend so much time on

726
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:52,040
Speaker 1: trying to fix all these other things. But what about

727
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 1: your health? What about you. The most important thing in

728
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:59,280
Speaker 1: the world, right we we we neglect our health to

729
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 1: to to come here to work on things and to

730
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,800
Speaker 1: do everything else, and we forget the most important things.

731
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 1: And you gotta and as you went to a resort

732
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:11,600
Speaker 1: for your wife to call me, who's very professional, she's

733
00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 1: a lawyer. She had those major things. It's was cannabis, okay,

734
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 1: in your family, you and your wife? Was it? I

735
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 1: didn't know if you ever used before? That was it?

736
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 1: You know? It like, let's go good? You know? How

737
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:24,960
Speaker 1: was that for you? And no, I mean I I

738
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 1: grew up messing around with stuff and doing stuff in college,

739
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 1: you know, I think it was. I think I said,

740
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 1: it's always kind of been a taboo thing, right, so

741
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 1: thin it wasn't really over some. I mean his dad

742
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 1: taught about to sell. Not for him. For other people,

743
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:38,960
Speaker 1: I hear you, But for some it's not. Though. I

744
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:40,640
Speaker 1: think it's the greatest thing in the world. I think

745
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:42,760
Speaker 1: there's nothing but benefit from it. I think it saves

746
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,320
Speaker 1: people's lives. I think it causes instead of taking all

747
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 1: these crazy anti anxiety medications and whatnot, you can take

748
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 1: certain cannabis products and and it'll it's healthier for you,

749
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,760
Speaker 1: it's safer for you. And uh, I guess it changed

750
00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 1: my life forever. So I'm nothing but a well let's

751
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 1: let's get into that, because we still didn't know, like

752
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 1: what what you you you're just dealing with anxiety, right,

753
00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 1: not just anxiety, but you had anxiety and then comment

754
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,320
Speaker 1: and then yeah, did was there a you know, a

755
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 1: certain cannabis or a certain CBD that actually helped you?

756
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,440
Speaker 1: What was you know? The outour now that you like that?

757
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:16,920
Speaker 1: Just I know you're smoking. I know yesterday you're smoking,

758
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,319
Speaker 1: and yeah, it's it's not just the flower. It's also

759
00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 1: the CBD was big for me, you know, just get

760
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:23,600
Speaker 1: the lotion and the oil. The oil was a big deal.

761
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,960
Speaker 1: So drops drops, you know what it It just made

762
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:28,400
Speaker 1: me feel good and it made me give me like

763
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:30,320
Speaker 1: that sense of zen and that calm just where I

764
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:31,880
Speaker 1: needed to get to to get my mind. I never

765
00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:33,480
Speaker 1: thought I'd be able to drive a car again. I

766
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 1: never thought I'm able to leave my house. You know,

767
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:37,560
Speaker 1: you're getting these weird places because in life, you know,

768
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:39,959
Speaker 1: you get all these tragedies that happened, and it sends

769
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,879
Speaker 1: your mind in this really weird place. But I gotta

770
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:44,960
Speaker 1: stop feeling sorry for myself at one point and said, hey,

771
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 1: I gotta figure this out. So I reached out for

772
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,080
Speaker 1: help and said, hey, what can we do. All the

773
00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:51,440
Speaker 1: medical stuff, all the pills, all the stuff the doctors

774
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:53,840
Speaker 1: want to give you, nothing, dude, that's just a band aid, bandy,

775
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:57,319
Speaker 1: And I get it's some people got to use into

776
00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:59,279
Speaker 1: an addiction quick. But this was a big deal for me,

777
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 1: you know when it came out. That's why whatever Joliverer

778
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:03,200
Speaker 1: needs from me, I'm gonna be right by his side,

779
00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:05,239
Speaker 1: because not a lot of people answer that phone. A

780
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 1: lot of people hang it up. He dropped what he

781
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:08,800
Speaker 1: was doing and came right over. Yeah, well that's you know,

782
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,320
Speaker 1: and not to be thank you for that, but you know,

783
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,279
Speaker 1: that's what we do up here, guys like us. You know,

784
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,759
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm no different than YouTube. Thank you for

785
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:19,200
Speaker 1: praising me, but it's what we do for each other.

786
00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:22,920
Speaker 1: Right when if I called you, that's how dude, like

787
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 1: right now, like right now, like way. So my point

788
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,239
Speaker 1: is when you say that, man, it's it's just a

789
00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:35,720
Speaker 1: testament for someone listening, going look for the people around

790
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,800
Speaker 1: you who may not even realize that they might need cannabis,

791
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:42,520
Speaker 1: and that to me, is the moral of your story, Perry,

792
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:46,520
Speaker 1: that some people don't even realize where Thank god you

793
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:48,880
Speaker 1: and your wife reached out and it helped leads you

794
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:51,720
Speaker 1: to where we're here together. Now. I think people smoke

795
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,160
Speaker 1: are just happier people. Yeah, I'll be honest, I just

796
00:35:54,200 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 1: think they're better. But like you said, oils are crucial

797
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:03,719
Speaker 1: for so many. I mean, let's just let's listen to

798
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:06,799
Speaker 1: this fact. Ready for this. I don't care what age

799
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:12,120
Speaker 1: you go into a seizure. Any age we've seen people

800
00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:15,560
Speaker 1: from young to old put oils under your tongue and

801
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 1: go from seizing to stopping course from an oil under

802
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:22,360
Speaker 1: your tongue from that extreme. So what could it do

803
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:24,840
Speaker 1: for you on a daily basis? Probably a lot of

804
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:28,839
Speaker 1: cannabis say when I say it that way, right, when

805
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:31,200
Speaker 1: I say it this way, like, look what it does

806
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 1: for that extreme thing. Now, if you're not feeling that way,

807
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:37,359
Speaker 1: what could it do for you? Well? I have people

808
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 1: in my family that I grew up totally against cannabis,

809
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: and now in their older age, they actually use the

810
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 1: CBD in the cannabis gummies for their anxiety to sleep

811
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:52,759
Speaker 1: at night, and they've they've understand the healing properties as well.

812
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:56,320
Speaker 1: Now you know, like as you do. Yeah, it's just different.

813
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 1: I guarantee you that cannabis can save a lot more

814
00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:00,800
Speaker 1: lives that people are willing to get some help and

815
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:04,320
Speaker 1: crazies my sound. I'm sure it cures diseases too. I

816
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 1: just don't think we're our society allows it to. Yeah,

817
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 1: that's that one. You can't say, you definitely, But I

818
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:17,040
Speaker 1: think what what the problem is with western you know,

819
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,239
Speaker 1: medicine is that you know, let's just be honest. We

820
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:21,680
Speaker 1: go to the doctor, they go here some xan X,

821
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:23,640
Speaker 1: you know, we go to the doctor. They're like, oh,

822
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 1: you know, here's some vicinging bro takes some vicon and

823
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:30,839
Speaker 1: and wonder heavily, heavily addictive. A leading cause of white

824
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:33,719
Speaker 1: male two is that, you know, it starts to get

825
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:36,200
Speaker 1: into a position where you know, you come dependent on

826
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:39,480
Speaker 1: something and and and had they been able to just

827
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:43,319
Speaker 1: go here, go home and and try this five milligrams

828
00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:46,719
Speaker 1: of cannabis, then up into ten milligrams the next day

829
00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:49,040
Speaker 1: if you don't feel anything but don't or up at

830
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:51,239
Speaker 1: seven milligrams and get to it a point where we

831
00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 1: can actually get the same experience every time. When someone

832
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:57,040
Speaker 1: tries cannabis too, because you know, the body takes it differently.

833
00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,719
Speaker 1: Like I might eat inedible, I can only eat you know,

834
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:04,640
Speaker 1: eight seven to eight milligrams, ten milligrams. I'm zooming. But

835
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:07,440
Speaker 1: my friends are eating a hundred milligrams, you know, and

836
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:10,239
Speaker 1: I'm just like, holy sh it, like you know, so

837
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:14,279
Speaker 1: I'm very very very slow, very slow on it. You know,

838
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 1: I've done you know, uh, thirty milligrams and just been

839
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:19,239
Speaker 1: in my house, you know, and I know I look

840
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:22,359
Speaker 1: back at it my laughing, but you know, I could

841
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:24,400
Speaker 1: see how someone could freak to freak out, you know,

842
00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:27,600
Speaker 1: I mean, like quick, you know, So be smart, you know,

843
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,000
Speaker 1: low dose if you're new to cannabis, if you're listening

844
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,320
Speaker 1: and you're thinking about trying it, I think it's important

845
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:36,080
Speaker 1: to educate people properly. Make sure that you know, you

846
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:39,560
Speaker 1: start very low, three five milligrams and start real low,

847
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:41,359
Speaker 1: because you might find your dose there and be good.

848
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 1: But again, there's an alternative for the you know, the

849
00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:48,080
Speaker 1: big farm of medicines and and it's called cannabis, and

850
00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:51,080
Speaker 1: we know that. So um, you know, with that process,

851
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,600
Speaker 1: is it helping you are still in a regiment? Yeah,

852
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:55,400
Speaker 1: So I definitely take what I take every day, and

853
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:57,319
Speaker 1: it makes me feel good and keeps me. I wanted

854
00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 1: to stay off of medication, so I didn't want to

855
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,640
Speaker 1: be the anxiety of medication guy that can't get it,

856
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 1: gets addicted and can't get off. Certain I wanted to

857
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 1: go a more natural route, and honestly, it's just changed

858
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:09,080
Speaker 1: my life, you know, completely, And if I can, you know,

859
00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:11,080
Speaker 1: have one person try it who can get them off

860
00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 1: something and take this natural stuff. It just makes you

861
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:23,400
Speaker 1: feel better. So so Joe's now your dealer had one product,

862
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:34,080
Speaker 1: yet give the guys like, give it to them. It's

863
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,000
Speaker 1: funny because everybody keeps saying, when are you gonna have

864
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:37,560
Speaker 1: a product, Joe, And I'm like, man, I just keep

865
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:39,920
Speaker 1: finding the best products for people because but there's just

866
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:42,520
Speaker 1: so many different things that people need, and then when

867
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:45,759
Speaker 1: somebody gets sicker, they may need something else, you know,

868
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:48,160
Speaker 1: because there's I mean, I say this and it is

869
00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 1: not a joke, but there's necessary needs for prostate CBD

870
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:55,920
Speaker 1: intake and it's very serious. And I say that as

871
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:58,239
Speaker 1: a like, oh no, I have had a people that

872
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:00,560
Speaker 1: needed to take its. Cousin that did it, put it

873
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:04,400
Speaker 1: in my father, and I want to put it in

874
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:07,200
Speaker 1: my cousin if he need, and I mean it helps.

875
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:10,200
Speaker 1: On my dad's deathbed, you know, there was a much

876
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:12,279
Speaker 1: better quality of life as soon as he kicked all

877
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:15,000
Speaker 1: the opioids and he made his own decision. You know.

878
00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:16,920
Speaker 1: We were in and out of the v A hospital.

879
00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:18,920
Speaker 1: My dad's a veteran, God blessed his soul. Taught me

880
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 1: how to grow teach, taught me a lot about the

881
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:25,120
Speaker 1: cannabis industry, only to deal with cannabis, YadA YadA. And

882
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:28,640
Speaker 1: on his deathbed he got out of the hospitals. I

883
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:30,040
Speaker 1: could get me the funk out of here, and I'm

884
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:31,879
Speaker 1: like what He's like, I'm out, and I'm like, Dad,

885
00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:33,239
Speaker 1: you can't leave the hospital, you know what I mean,

886
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:36,000
Speaker 1: Like you could barely move, you know, and lo and

887
00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:37,880
Speaker 1: behold dude. You know, he was at home and he

888
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,000
Speaker 1: just cold turkey and all the drugs he was on

889
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:44,440
Speaker 1: um and only went to cannabis. And like within he

890
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,960
Speaker 1: took him off seven to fourteen days of kicking, you know,

891
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:50,040
Speaker 1: like almost two weeks where he was just a mess.

892
00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:53,879
Speaker 1: And then on the like eighteen day, I come home

893
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:56,239
Speaker 1: and I took feed him because I was leaf. I

894
00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:57,719
Speaker 1: would come in the morning wake him up and get

895
00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,640
Speaker 1: him showered, you know, put him in his with walker

896
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:04,319
Speaker 1: or his or or late leaving getting comfortable in bed. Um.

897
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:07,440
Speaker 1: But we started just giving him cannabis, just giving him cannabis,

898
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:09,800
Speaker 1: and and that was Gummy's th h you know, smoking

899
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:13,279
Speaker 1: whatever he could take it. And he had cancer. And uh,

900
00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:16,520
Speaker 1: one day I come home and he's cooking, you know,

901
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:18,440
Speaker 1: and I'm like, dude, you haven't been up in months,

902
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,439
Speaker 1: and you know he wasn't. It wasn't a miracle, dude.

903
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,040
Speaker 1: It was a miracle for me that day, by the way,

904
00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:25,480
Speaker 1: to see him cooking, because I'm like, yeah, and he was.

905
00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,480
Speaker 1: I was hungry, you know, and I'm thinking, damn, you know,

906
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:30,680
Speaker 1: like my dad hasn't eight and like this, I mean,

907
00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 1: he hasn't been cooked for himself. And you know last year,

908
00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:36,320
Speaker 1: let alone, you know, the last couple months. And so

909
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:39,359
Speaker 1: his quality of life on the way out was much better.

910
00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:42,360
Speaker 1: He communicated better, he wasn't in bed, you know, just

911
00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:45,040
Speaker 1: on drugs and drugged out of his mind. And and

912
00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:47,239
Speaker 1: there's a point where he gets comfort care. And you

913
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:49,000
Speaker 1: have two different kinds of comfort care now that I

914
00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:51,759
Speaker 1: look at you could be super high on on on

915
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:54,680
Speaker 1: THHC and enjoy that, or he could be super doped

916
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:57,160
Speaker 1: up on you know, oxy cotton and whatever else they

917
00:41:57,239 --> 00:41:59,360
Speaker 1: give you. And and for whatever you want is for me.

918
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:02,400
Speaker 1: Whatever you want, I don't care if you want, you

919
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:06,399
Speaker 1: know whatever, it's your way. And he was just getting yeah,

920
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:08,160
Speaker 1: on your way out, it's your way out. But I

921
00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:11,600
Speaker 1: I feel that on his way out he chose cannabis.

922
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:14,759
Speaker 1: Made some serious statements to me about where I'm gonna

923
00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:17,040
Speaker 1: go in this in this industry, and why it works

924
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:19,600
Speaker 1: so hard, you know, and and and I think that

925
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:23,879
Speaker 1: it's it's a better quality of life. I think you're

926
00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:25,640
Speaker 1: gonna realize that you're gonna eat more, you can get

927
00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:27,920
Speaker 1: more nutrition, you're gonna have a better sense of what

928
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:29,800
Speaker 1: you're doing. I don't think you're gonna be so addicted

929
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,279
Speaker 1: to and relying on like you know, I see some

930
00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:34,719
Speaker 1: of these elders that are I need my bills and

931
00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:37,120
Speaker 1: they're freaking out. You know, you're not gonna feel that

932
00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:39,440
Speaker 1: way about cannabis. You might like, hey, I need some cannabis,

933
00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 1: but you're not going to be so addicted that thank

936
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:53,160
Speaker 1: what it could and mushrooms too, if it could help,

937
00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:55,759
Speaker 1: if they want to use it, whatever, anything, whatever they need.
