Get ready, every Friday, we'll have that for you. Will you
please tell everybody what how drinking's gonna change. I'm gonna tell you, Danny.
But first here's what happened on w FAA channel late last night. Well,
I choked. I was choking on them a couple of years ago.
Remember I told you, I kid you, not captain also saved my life.
Seriously, I mean I I folks. I couldn't make this up with
my head too. My friend and listener Scott, captured this on online.
He was watching it on TV at the time. I looked for it.
I don't record the six o'clock WFA and he's unfortunately I did the ten.
Cynthia is a get A known for great reporting first, mountain climbing news news,
second, and mixing up Marvel catchphrases. Third. If you search Cynthia's
a get A Marvel, you'll find this. What she weirdly apologized for is
she uh put a spider Man quote to Superman. Well, and who's your
favorite Marvel Comics hero? Mine is super Man. Remember the motto with great
power comes great responsibility, Have a great night. Everyone will see you again
at six, you know, and they, I gotta say this, those
Marvel nerds came and killed her for that. It was honest mistake, you
know, honest mistake happened to anyone. She was telling a story about choking
on eating a banana. And she tried to tell the story, you know,
you got a piece of banana log And all Delkas can do is look
over there and just imagine her with like watery mass scarra from choking. Yeah,
Chris Lwartz was holding back a laugh too. They were they started choking
on their own laughter. And then whoever did the they went to the weather
right after that, and that guy giggled his way through the Delcas minute or
two, and Delcas retweeted it later with a sunshine emoji. I choked.
I was choking on a banana a couple of years ago. Remember I told
you, if you not Captain also saved my life? Okay, Captain Awesome
saved her life? What does that mean? What does that mean? That's
like her nickname, her husband or something. I don't know if it was
really Captain Awesome. It's kind of hard to tell. If I said Captain
alsops, Captain also saved my life. You can't hear because they're laughing over
her. Dolcis thinks Captain Awesome starred in Pirates. Gosh, why was she
telling them about this three years? You don't know but leave it to dirty
Pete to take it down the wrong road. Captain Awesome is a book series.
I think it was a real captain who saved her life, but I
don't know. All Right, the teas you've all been waiting for. All
right, retease it. And then it hit me because this has worked me
over all morning. Damn it, how drinking may never be the same again.
This is a game changer. It's changed my weekend. I'm going to
the store right after the show to get this. Okay, had this an?
I think I know what this is and I'll just say this. Do
you think it will be a breeze to get this item? Oh? A
breeze? Hold on, Okay, maybe I'm wrong. Go ahead, Kevin
Drew Brees have a new no no, no, no, no no no
to stop bringing fe breeze into your drink. No, guys, you may
know that non alcoholic beverages are on the rise. Young adults are not drinking
as much as they did when we were young adults. Now there's stats to
back that up. I still think people are drinking a lot. Specs has
added a drink called high Seltzer Hi high Seltzer. It's a new drink that
comes in five fruit flavors, zero calories, zero sugar, zero alcohol.
It's hemp infused, made with three ingredients carbonated water, natural flavors, and
five milligrams of hemp derived Delta eight t h C. Now, the FDA
has worn consumers that Delta eight products have not been evaluated and that the substance
has psychoactive and intoxicating effects. Hey no, Now, the CEO of high
Selter, which is a company out of Kentucky, they're in twenty three states
and they got in Texas at Thanksgiving and they're finishing their role out this week.
That's why this is in the news. And Spex is the only one
that I know of that's picked them up. Their CEO, Lou Police,
says that Spex is at least twelve months ahead of the game. He says
that one twelve ounce can is the equivalent to the buzz of two glasses of
wine, and it metabolizes faster within seven or eight minutes. So it's like
drinking two glasses of wine, but with no alcohol, no sugar, no
weight gain, no dehydration, no no hangover, no headache. Is that
right? And this is a market prediction Okay, not for me. Like
expert people that non alcoholic delta THHC HEMP infused beverages like this are going to
score about one billion dollars worth of revenue this year. They're predicting like six
billion and like three years this will be the next thing. This is the
next thing. I've they've been. There's been this massive explosion of marketing from
a particular company on Instagram lately, and the company is called Breeze. It's
b r easy with the long line over the E and I read I watched
probably an ninety second to two minute clip of their pitch man. I think
he was probably the CEO of the company, and it's kind of like Kevin
described it that basically and this this one contains THC, what's the C and
another non psychoactive ingredient, but it's all like natural natural flavors, no sugar,
like five calories, and he describes it basically takes adds the social element
of euphoria to a group setting at a bar if you don't want to do
alcohol. And he said that when you eat an edible, it typically takes
up to an hour to metabolize and you start feeling the effects, and then
those effects can last four hours. You've written the wave of those many times
I know I have, and it can be a wild ride, depending on
you know, oo oh and maybe I need to eat another one. Oh
wait too much, call the ambulance. You know, we've all been there.
What this does is, after like one, you feel that similar kind
of Okay, I feel a little looser in this social setting. You have
another one, and it takes it up a little bit of a notch.
I said. There are times that you can sit and have four or five
or six of these things because you don't have to wait an hour for them
to metabolize. You get the feeling within ten minutes and it only lasts for
about forty five minutes to an hour, and then you might want to have
another one. But you can go the whole night just kind of feeling a
little buzz. And it's not like an into the couch buzz, you know,
indo couch. I guess it's not that kind of feeling where you still
want to be social. It's probably like more of a sativa effect. But
apparently this thing, you're going to have one hundred different brands of this.
This is going to be the next alcoholic selser thing. And I just saw
this over over the past week. Now, the thing is they ain't cheap.
And if you wanted to buy one of their products, and they do
ship to Texas or I believe there's one state that they wouldn't ship to,
and I think it's Idaho. But you can get these in Texas or ship
to texts. You can get this expect that's right now. The only one
the problem is a six pack of this stuff if you ordered it from them,
this one, one particular Breeze company is forty dollars. I added that
that's I don't know if that's true. I'm just telling you that this particular
brand, okay, Breeze. I ho don't see if Specs has Breeze Okay,
because high Seltzer. They're ucking four packs and you can get a four
pack for eleven bucks. So now can you look up I mean, I
hate to do this to you on Breeze. Will you look up? What
the is it? Delta eight THC. I don't think the Delta nine because
this is a weird thing that we don't know anything about. Really, but
this is what the Dallas Morning News article said. Ben, You're gonna ask,
how is this legal in Texas? Right? If it gets you high
or gets you super buzzed. Well, here's what happened. In twenty eighteen.
There was a federal farm bill and it allowed infused products for Delta nine
THHC. But high Seltzer is Delta eight and it comes from hemp. So
it's different for whatever reason than what the laws are. And an expert would
have to tell us what the difference in Delta eight and Delta nine is,
and it might be boring to hear the answer. The point is this is
legal and a great solution if it works. Now. I checked out some
of the reviews as far as tasting, so a website that had it only
had ninety three people review it so far. Seventy three percent were five star
reviews. The rest were kind of mad. Many people were basically saying,
look, it's not too sweet the which is maybe good for some people,
maybe not good for others. The common thing was it is lacking a little
bit of flavor. But they have on the SPEC's website little recipes you can
make, like how about a high seltzer dirty soda? You put a little
bit of that in there. High Seltzer Cherry the brand right there. Maybe
you put a little diet coke in there, Doctor Pepper put a little cherry
in there for the garnish for you know it, You've got yourself a nice
little cocktail. So this is interesting one, Texter. I've been drinking three
of these Seltzers a day since Metzler's in Denton started carrying them last year.
Highly recommend. Also great for mixing with gin, which is another see little
Twister roos. Yeah, he's going full Jordan Millis here. We're gonna get
into some four loco situations here where this stuff just gets abused and they're just
downing twelve of them at once, just to see how far you can take
it. So the Breeze brand, which you asked me to look up the
ingredients on that it is listed, is just regular THC two point five milligrams
of THC, five milligrams of CDB or CBD, and sixteen hundred milligrams of
lions Maine. Now Lion's main. Lion's Main is derived from a certain type
of mushroom, and I believe it helps helps alleviate certain types of anxiety and
depression. So you get that concoction altogether could be a fun night. And
it's vegan, non GMO, gluten free, thirty calories kind of carbs we're
looking at like, if there's only thirty calories, there's like none, none,
probably one. Maybe are you really going to do this today? I'm
doing it today, and you're gonna because you need to be stone cold sober
and then knock down one or two of these and tell us exactly what's going
on. Yeah, I'm very curious. That's my plan. I was going
if I would have discovered this story before nine pm last night, I was
gonna run to Specs and we knock them out on the air. Specters already
closed. Oh yeah, that'd be fun, and they don't open till ten
am. So I got a Delta eight Delta nine collar. You want to
see what they they got? What do you got for us? Collar?
Yeah, I'm gonna say you're doing between Delta eight and Delta nine. Delta
eight is actually derivative from CBD, which is a natural occurring chemic cool in
cannabis and MP versus delta nine THHG, which is the THHD that also naturally
occurs in cannabis. CBD actually counteractuates the effect of THHD, but because it's
a byproduct, they take the CBD converted into Delta eight and that's why it's
legal. Have you had these drinks before? Not the drinks, but I
do use Delta eight, Delta ten pens and vapes and things like that,
and it's the same laws. Can I ask you a caller and listener a
question. So I used to smoke a lot of weed, like all day,
every day for a long time, and then yeah, and if we
find with that, frankly, I miss it a little bit. But I
have not take ingested weed in any form in years and years because I had
an anxiety angled to it. And I don't know now, I immediately associate
a hit or two of weed. I think the last time I smoked was
Madison Square Garden radio Head, and I almost had a full on panic attack
in the middle of a packed floor, and I'm like, why I'm done
with this? But anyway, I don't know where it started or why it
happened. Maybe with my body telling me, dude, you can't smoke weed
all day every day. You must stop this. Fine, But as a
Delta eight user, what is the Is there any equivalent at all? Is
it completely different? Like? What are the uh, what are the similarities
I suppose between weed and Delta eighty Delta eight it's kind of the same,
kind of different at the same time. Uh. How I equate it is
whenever you smoke regular weed, you get that kind of clouded head headedness,
if that makes sense. Yeah, you're getting that kind of foggy feeling.
With the buzz, Delta eight you get, Oh the buzz, you don't
get that clouded feeling. It's bades a rider feeling. You still get into
desired effect, but it's not as heavy. Do you feel stoned? You
feel high, not stone See. I really wonder because I don't know if
whatever he's describing would trigger that. The clouded effect of marijuana is always what
sent me to places of anxiety and dread, and that's why I can't people
are My wife is the same way. We used to smoke every time we
went to concerts and things like that, and it got to the point where
being in crowds being high, she would always panic. She's found that with
Delta eight, Delta ten, with these CBD derivative thhds, she doesn't have
that feeling. She doesn't have that anxiety. Thank you for calling. What's
your name? Man? You didn't have to say he wanted to, he
wanted to. Okay, thanks Dylan, Thank you, Dylan. Have a
good one, man. Yeah, have a great weekend. You sure,
thanks for the explanation. Stay high, little champion. Do you think his
friends call him chilling alone? Yeah? Always? What are you doing?
Two text messages? Want to read? One is it's legal, but you'll
still fail if you get drug tested at work, so they should put a
disclaimer on there. That might be true. Also, is that Pat mahomes
and have little Patrick mahomes to him just a little bit. The flavors here,
Mike real cherry, lemon, lime, watermelon, wild berry, and
pineapple. Okay, eleven fifty seven for a four pack sounds pretty great.
All right, you're gonna do this. Maybe change, We're gonna have non
alcoholic Seltzer. Places like Rollertown should get a non alcoholic Delta eight drink going
right now? Is going to blow up. I'm sure Skin loves you telling
him what he should do. Yeah, that's true. And I'm not even
an investor. Damn, all right, don't play with I'm not even an
investor. We're coming up next. Why are planes crying? Why are doors
flying off of planes? Why are there so many unruly passengers? Is it
just us? Is it just us? Is it just the news? Has
the media made this a bigger narrative than it really is? We will ask
Dallas Morning News aviation reporter Alexandra Scores next. On ninety seven Won the Free
