00:00:26.280 --> 00:00:28.920
Yo, what's going on? Everybody? Welcome to a new episode of My

2
00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:32.920
Canniccass. I'm candid Dave, I'm
good. Today's episode we gotta we're gonna

3
00:00:32.920 --> 00:00:38.679
be doing a Cushmasters White Mo Live
hash rosin review. We're gonna be discussing

4
00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:43.759
Michigan at Cannabis Sales had a new
record in July, and there's a pretty

5
00:00:43.759 --> 00:00:47.039
cool projection of what the market's gonna
be like. Yeah, really some neat

6
00:00:47.079 --> 00:00:50.880
stuff, man. And then we
got stuff that's happening out of state h

7
00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:55.039
as in kind of more information on
the farmer's market we talked about on the

8
00:00:55.039 --> 00:00:58.439
weaken bake in the past this past
Saturday. Uh, there's the we'll be

9
00:00:58.439 --> 00:01:02.359
watching a video from it. It
seems like it's more licensees, not like

10
00:01:02.439 --> 00:01:04.200
homegrowers. Yeah, we want to
wall we're gonna watch. We don't like,

11
00:01:04.480 --> 00:01:07.359
we don't do it too much,
but we're gonna talk over this one

12
00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:08.599
a little bit. Yeah, well
probably yeah, and then that's a Michigan

13
00:01:08.599 --> 00:01:11.599
stuff and all over. So yeah, it's been interesting today and we get

14
00:01:11.599 --> 00:01:17.359
a review today because who's back in
the studio? Candidate was back if you

15
00:01:17.400 --> 00:01:21.680
were in the last podcast, candidate
but had some shingles and had to take

16
00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:23.439
it easy and he's still it was
still hard to get him to take it

17
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:26.000
easy because he does not take things
easy. He's usually like, hey,

18
00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:33.400
how can I say I'm taking it
easy and still work exactly? Because that's

19
00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:38.000
me. I love working. I
don't know, but yeah, let's uh,

20
00:01:38.120 --> 00:01:40.439
let's jump into this. I think
we want to jump right into the

21
00:01:40.480 --> 00:01:42.280
review groovy because I'm excited about it
because we haven't done a review in a

22
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:46.000
minute actually, so this would be
be fun. Yeah, it should be

23
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:52.920
cool. But this company is called
it's it is cush Masters, so it's

24
00:01:53.079 --> 00:01:56.879
newan we haven't tried I haven't tried
this brand yet, right, I haven't

25
00:01:56.920 --> 00:02:00.120
tried it at all, so I
mean I am very curious to see how

26
00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:05.920
it all is. Yeah, okay, let me get this pulled up very

27
00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:10.599
quick. We got the white Moo
White Mo Rosin by cush Masters. It

28
00:02:10.719 --> 00:02:15.639
is Rosin and Cushmasters is the brand. So we just wanted to cut it

29
00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:19.199
up because me and Day we're talking
about it before. He's like, cush

30
00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:21.199
Masters, that's all do strain.
I'm like, no, no, it's

31
00:02:21.240 --> 00:02:23.680
the Strain cool box. What if
he shocked if it was a strain cool

32
00:02:23.719 --> 00:02:27.360
box. They got a good design
stuff. Yeah, I don't know.

33
00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:30.000
Opened it up. Let's get into
it or packet. Let's start with h

34
00:02:35.960 --> 00:02:40.680
it's really piny package. That's what
I'm getting is a lot of pine there

35
00:02:40.680 --> 00:02:46.919
you go. Oh you gotta take
a damn yeah, no, no,

36
00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:49.000
yeah, why you got it?
What do you what do you think I'm

37
00:02:49.039 --> 00:02:52.520
package? And then smell what would
you give on smelling package? I'm probably

38
00:02:52.520 --> 00:02:55.120
gonna give it pretty much like a
six and a half seven, you know

39
00:02:55.159 --> 00:02:59.319
what, I'll give it a seven
seven, Yeah, because like it,

40
00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:01.319
Like I like the packaging, Like
I like that they put that little gold

41
00:03:01.319 --> 00:03:07.520
box. But there is a lot
of info, so you know, TC

42
00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:10.039
CBD, camn noois. I do
like that it is on the back this

43
00:03:10.120 --> 00:03:13.439
though, because it's on the box
as well as it's on the container.

44
00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:15.080
So maybe seven and a half,
But like at this point, I really

45
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:17.800
there's not a lot of information.
So that's kind of what I'm held back

46
00:03:17.800 --> 00:03:21.639
by Moon Labs. Not familiar with
them. I'm trying to just like give

47
00:03:21.719 --> 00:03:23.560
a little bit, but maybe seven
two five, you know what I mean?

48
00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:27.360
Right, Like the graphic on the
box too, Yeah, that's kind

49
00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:29.120
of cool. I'll do. I'll
go with you. I like the smell

50
00:03:29.719 --> 00:03:32.159
really piny, which is interesting to
me because like maybe you get a little

51
00:03:32.199 --> 00:03:35.719
bit of spice there from that GMO, but I'm getting a lot of pine.

52
00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:43.000
So I was told that the crosses
were the white and GMO, so

53
00:03:43.800 --> 00:03:47.360
definitely smells good. I'll probably give
about a eight. It's a nice smell.

54
00:03:47.639 --> 00:03:53.280
Yeah, I am right there with
you. It's not like overly pungent,

55
00:03:53.319 --> 00:03:54.919
like as soon as you open it, but when you get in there

56
00:03:54.960 --> 00:03:58.840
you can smell it like. It's
pretty clear. Consistency looks nice as well

57
00:03:58.919 --> 00:04:00.280
too. Okay, is this he's
nice? Yeah, I'm pretty sure you

58
00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:02.680
can make a don't have you want
to try to see if you could mallet

59
00:04:02.759 --> 00:04:08.360
move it around a bit? Yeah, take your damn out, dope,

60
00:04:08.759 --> 00:04:16.319
I'm about to take my damn m
grab a little bit. It's just completely

61
00:04:16.319 --> 00:04:20.680
sappy and it just sticks to his
hands. It counts your damn Yeah,

62
00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:25.959
this is pretty much I'm watching a
little bit stuck, but not really now

63
00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:30.959
I'm picking it up. Yeah,
No, this is nice. Yeah,

64
00:04:30.720 --> 00:04:34.480
yeah, I'd probably give it probably
about like eight point seven five nine.

65
00:04:34.560 --> 00:04:41.240
I mean, it's pretty it's pretty
good stuff here in consistency you groovy.

66
00:04:41.560 --> 00:04:46.079
Yeah, man, I'm with you
on that one for sure. I can't

67
00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:51.879
really complain on it. There is, all right. So yeah, we're

68
00:04:51.879 --> 00:04:56.120
gonna jump now in a flavor and
effects and high. I'm excited to try

69
00:04:56.120 --> 00:04:59.079
this. You said it's GMO in
the white, which I don't know what

70
00:04:59.120 --> 00:05:01.040
the white is though. I feel
like I've seen the white like the strain

71
00:05:01.079 --> 00:05:04.480
around, but I I don't know
if I've ever tried it. I can

72
00:05:04.480 --> 00:05:10.040
look up with the gen next on
the white. Yeah, yeah, take

73
00:05:10.120 --> 00:05:12.920
it. I'm actually curious. I
don't know. That's not my head says

74
00:05:12.959 --> 00:05:16.000
the white aka white weeds strain,
white fire. I feel like should be

75
00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:20.879
in it. Who knows? Man? All right, well, cheers.

76
00:05:20.959 --> 00:05:27.319
Dude taking your dab says this mysterious
strain was originally called Triangle, and supposedly

77
00:05:27.319 --> 00:05:30.279
he's from Florida. They're saying there's
og cush in it, but they're saying

78
00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:33.560
they're not. It doesn't seem like
they're exactly sure. Okay, but OG

79
00:05:33.839 --> 00:05:36.199
kind of give that piney. That
kind of makes sense because it's like a

80
00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:40.319
like a spicier pine, so that
kind of kind of makes sense. Og

81
00:05:40.480 --> 00:05:45.319
is definitely piney little cheers if you're
listening to take a dab with us.

82
00:05:48.800 --> 00:05:51.920
Piney is a GM oh I order
if I'm gonna get some garlic to it,

83
00:05:53.000 --> 00:05:56.519
you know, a little little gas
gas with this and some pine.

84
00:05:56.680 --> 00:06:00.959
That's what I'm That's my prethought,
four dad, some gas and pine,

85
00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:29.519
like mixed gassy pine gary. See
what you think gassy pine. I think

86
00:06:34.079 --> 00:06:40.399
it's unique, taste pretty good.
I don't I don't know what I'm getting

87
00:06:40.399 --> 00:06:45.439
off of it. Off for a
ship little piney sweetness too. It's weird

88
00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:47.879
because what I was I actually got
was I called it like a pine smoothie

89
00:06:48.040 --> 00:06:50.879
because for some reason, you almost
get like the sweeter hit. But when

90
00:06:50.920 --> 00:06:55.199
you smell it, it's got like
that pine funk to it, you know,

91
00:06:55.279 --> 00:06:58.959
But there is like almost like this
like piney banana taste to it.

92
00:06:59.000 --> 00:07:00.839
Is what I des rive. It
is, but I don't know. I

93
00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:03.000
get more pine than anything. It's
still the most prevalently when you taste it,

94
00:07:03.000 --> 00:07:08.560
definitely pine. So again, GMO
did not stand out in this one

95
00:07:08.600 --> 00:07:10.839
at all really to me. Maybe
a little bit in the smell, but

96
00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:14.279
not on the taste. Yeah,
and by smoothie, I don't mean it's

97
00:07:14.279 --> 00:07:16.319
super sweet, like a smoothie.
It just means you get like this almost

98
00:07:16.360 --> 00:07:20.319
like how bananas are sweet, like
creamy sweet. It's almost like a creamy

99
00:07:20.399 --> 00:07:25.000
pine. If I could describe it
the best, That's what I That's how

100
00:07:25.040 --> 00:07:27.120
I've been having it in my head. I was just curious what you thought.

101
00:07:27.680 --> 00:07:29.720
Yeah, okay. As soon as
I taste it, I was like,

102
00:07:29.720 --> 00:07:33.120
I got pine. But then there's
like this weird under It's as yeah,

103
00:07:33.319 --> 00:07:36.360
smoothie is a good way to put
it. I was thinking sweets,

104
00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:40.800
like it's maybe a sweet smoothie.
Uh I get a twelve twelve and a

105
00:07:40.879 --> 00:07:43.480
half on it on the flavor.
Yeah, I'm right, I'm with you

106
00:07:43.519 --> 00:07:45.680
on twelve and a half. I
was, if anything, I'm closer to

107
00:07:45.759 --> 00:07:47.879
thirteen only because of the uniqueness.
I don't know if it's something that I

108
00:07:47.920 --> 00:07:51.079
necessarily would buy every single day,
but it is like one of those things

109
00:07:51.120 --> 00:07:54.959
like I got a good deal on
this, so it's like one of those

110
00:07:54.959 --> 00:07:58.160
ones where between the other ones I
didn't like the strains. I was like,

111
00:07:58.160 --> 00:08:01.079
this was this is pretty good because
I like wine like gas Fall and

112
00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:03.160
click pine. Is that like the
cousint you know what I mean? It's

113
00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:07.720
like if you have something that's super
piney. You almost get that that sourrow

114
00:08:07.800 --> 00:08:11.199
g sour funk like you know to
it. So it's like, I don't

115
00:08:11.240 --> 00:08:13.720
mind it. That makes sense that
I like it. So maybe twelve and

116
00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:16.680
a half thirteen almost, I give
you twelve points unique in the middle.

117
00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:20.240
Oh what about effects and high?
Are you feeling my dude chilling? I

118
00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:26.199
think it's a little bit more on
the body buzz side. Yeah, I

119
00:08:26.199 --> 00:08:31.680
would say it's definitely relaxing. I
do feel a little in the head,

120
00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:33.799
so it's not fully like a full
body Yeah, I'm just saying a little

121
00:08:33.840 --> 00:08:37.279
bit more heavier on that. That's
a little bit more sedative relaxing. This

122
00:08:37.279 --> 00:08:43.120
would be good for like a mid
afternoon nighttime smoke for myself. Damn uh.

123
00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:48.879
Probably around twelve honestly. Affects and
high, yeah, I'm a twelve

124
00:08:48.879 --> 00:08:54.320
and a half. It hit me, you know, it is afternoon for

125
00:08:54.399 --> 00:09:01.600
us. Yeah, it's decent.
It's decently. I like the effects and

126
00:09:01.639 --> 00:09:03.480
I gotta give it. I won't
say it's like super strong, but it's

127
00:09:03.480 --> 00:09:05.840
not super weak either, So it's
like right in the middle of twelve.

128
00:09:07.960 --> 00:09:11.159
Yeah, I'm right there with you
on that. Eleven twelve, but like

129
00:09:11.200 --> 00:09:15.039
I think it is better, Like
I'm I'm more satisfied than disappointed. So

130
00:09:15.159 --> 00:09:18.440
it definitely is strong enough for how
tirpy it is. Yeah, yeah,

131
00:09:18.480 --> 00:09:20.480
that makes sense because I don't need
it, like I don't need to jump

132
00:09:20.559 --> 00:09:24.399
right into another dab per se like
like I got pretty good. I'm feeling

133
00:09:24.440 --> 00:09:28.960
pretty good off of that one hit, like you said, definitely really good

134
00:09:28.000 --> 00:09:31.279
body Bucks though, for sure,
you know that's why I said I might

135
00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:35.759
raise the effects in highlomics. I'm
enjoying the body budget. No I value.

136
00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:39.000
You picked it up, so I
don't know anything on the value.

137
00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:43.360
Yeah, so it was it was
on sale originally forty bucks, but it

138
00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:46.279
was just on sale for thirty five
dollars three four hundred, so I got

139
00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:52.200
it for thirty five bucks. That's
not bad even at like off the shelf

140
00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:54.080
prices. Forty bucks ain't bad,
you know what I mean. Now,

141
00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:58.519
consistency, It hits on consistency.
Yeah, roma was pretty good. Flavor

142
00:09:58.559 --> 00:10:01.600
wasn't. It's just unique, like
more unique, that's what I mean.

143
00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:05.279
It wasn't necessarily like but it wasn't
when I'm like, oh, I'm gonna

144
00:10:05.320 --> 00:10:07.480
grab a bunch of this, But
every once in a while I pick man,

145
00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:11.639
but I could just do that straight
now the other strains. Now there

146
00:10:11.679 --> 00:10:13.879
you go. And that's why I
got it, especially for a three for

147
00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:16.399
one hundred deal on some Rosin.
I mean, granted, I was like,

148
00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:18.200
oh, it's only two dollars,
six dollars of savings and just buying

149
00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:22.279
a Graham, but if you like
their ship six bucks, it is six

150
00:10:22.320 --> 00:10:26.080
bucks, right, Like, so
now I know stuff, So yeah,

151
00:10:26.120 --> 00:10:28.879
I enjoy it. I actually think
for the value on the Rosin, it's

152
00:10:28.840 --> 00:10:31.840
when I get stuff that's like the
thirty to forty range, like I feel

153
00:10:31.879 --> 00:10:35.600
like it's almost almost want to say, it's undervaluing, but I like that

154
00:10:35.720 --> 00:10:39.559
range because that makes it affordable for
your customer to buy Rosin regularly. So

155
00:10:39.679 --> 00:10:43.120
like, I love it, man, I can't really complain it. But

156
00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:45.279
if you when you get that twenty
dollars stuff, you're like, why is

157
00:10:45.279 --> 00:10:48.919
it twenty bucks? You know we've
seen some ship that's like twenty six that's

158
00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:52.039
pretty solid. Yeah, right,
so like it's getting there, but like

159
00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:54.159
a lot of that has too,
its like vertically integrated or just discounts.

160
00:10:56.120 --> 00:10:58.080
A lot of times it's forty to
fifty for solid stuff. So the fact

161
00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:01.039
that this is under pretty cool.
Three for a hundred though, was pretty

162
00:11:01.039 --> 00:11:03.320
good deal because if if you're buying
it at forty dollars a piece, that's

163
00:11:03.320 --> 00:11:07.440
one twenty and you save twenty.
Yeah, so I'm saying it depends how

164
00:11:07.440 --> 00:11:09.519
you look at the savings, right, I'd probably give it at eight on

165
00:11:09.679 --> 00:11:13.960
value, pretty reasonable for some decent
I'm actually going to go at least eight

166
00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:18.320
and a half because it's like it's
a little above the average, because sure

167
00:11:18.360 --> 00:11:22.440
they have it for forty, but
because like they do those discounts, and

168
00:11:22.440 --> 00:11:24.720
I've seen it a couple of times, and this wasn't like old, you

169
00:11:24.759 --> 00:11:28.399
know, like, yeah, it
was like newer, newer, And look

170
00:11:28.399 --> 00:11:31.240
at the date. Actually, I
just remember it was like I couldn't recall

171
00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:33.159
the date, but I remember it
wasn't that old, so I can.

172
00:11:33.240 --> 00:11:37.120
I know you're leaning towards recommending.
And the end of June, I mean,

173
00:11:37.120 --> 00:11:39.799
oh, it's real fresh. That's
what I remember seeing all with it.

174
00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:43.519
But see, sometimes I see the
sale and I people are like,

175
00:11:43.600 --> 00:11:46.440
oh, you can't just get sale
because it's cheap, right, Sometimes it

176
00:11:46.480 --> 00:11:48.080
is. Sometimes you get it.
It's like, oh that's thirteen months old,

177
00:11:48.200 --> 00:11:50.840
right, and it sucks. This
is just a deal. So that's

178
00:11:50.840 --> 00:11:52.840
why I was like, if they're
cutting deals like that, they must they

179
00:11:52.879 --> 00:11:56.080
got a good price too. So
for me, it's like, I feel

180
00:11:56.080 --> 00:12:01.159
like pretty soft recommending her sister.
Oh yeah, yeah, especially this flavor,

181
00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:03.519
I think. So it wasn't one
that I'm like you said, it's

182
00:12:03.559 --> 00:12:05.559
I want to it's amazing that I
like, Oh, it's changed my game,

183
00:12:05.600 --> 00:12:09.360
but it's definitely one that's unique enough
where I'm like, pretty tight.

184
00:12:09.639 --> 00:12:13.799
Yeah, I give it thirteen.
I'd definitely go recommend and repurchase, even

185
00:12:13.840 --> 00:12:18.159
if the to me, the flavor
was very unique. That my favorite.

186
00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:22.840
But the consistency, the aroma,
the taste still of the product, and

187
00:12:22.919 --> 00:12:26.399
the and the effect right now is
good. I like it. Good job,

188
00:12:26.840 --> 00:12:31.200
this did pass for sure. Yeah. I like the pins to it,

189
00:12:31.320 --> 00:12:35.080
but it choice different, but you've
got something different for us to try.

190
00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:37.840
Yeah, cush cush Masters, cush
Masters, White mo Live, hash

191
00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:46.519
Rosing good shout out, good job
past our review designing there. It's got

192
00:12:46.519 --> 00:12:50.279
like a wax machine him books.
Oh when the presses, it looks like

193
00:12:50.320 --> 00:12:54.519
it's pressed. It's just like sopped. Nice nice. I like it.

194
00:12:54.080 --> 00:13:00.440
That was cool. Well, let's
you want to start outside at first,

195
00:13:00.440 --> 00:13:03.480
and then work our way. You
know, I don't know, it doesn't

196
00:13:03.519 --> 00:13:05.840
matter, you know, alright,
what do you want to do, Bun,

197
00:13:07.519 --> 00:13:09.559
I don't know. So we're just
going to start with Illinois. We'll

198
00:13:09.559 --> 00:13:13.960
start off and we'll work our way, all right. So Illinois, it

199
00:13:13.000 --> 00:13:18.039
is so so Illinois, man.
A lot of the couple of the articles

200
00:13:18.080 --> 00:13:22.759
sit there just about sales and how
great states are doing right it literally because

201
00:13:22.759 --> 00:13:24.840
we got a couple of mixed up
when he was like talking to me about

202
00:13:24.919 --> 00:13:26.639
him, like, what do you
mean the other one with just broke records,

203
00:13:26.639 --> 00:13:30.279
It's like yeah, but multiple upgrades. That's why it's like, what,

204
00:13:30.519 --> 00:13:33.240
how is this market going down?
Because it seems like it's going up.

205
00:13:33.559 --> 00:13:39.879
Yeah, I know, it's it's
pretty wild. So in Illinois.

206
00:13:39.000 --> 00:13:43.200
Uh, they sold one hundred and
forty million dollars worth of weed in July

207
00:13:43.559 --> 00:13:46.360
and that is the highest monthly total
for them. So is that a few

208
00:13:46.360 --> 00:13:54.679
ounces? IM? Sorry? The
tags at crazy no, but here that

209
00:13:54.879 --> 00:13:58.840
makes sense though, because dude,
like they are very new still and you

210
00:13:58.919 --> 00:14:01.840
got people coming from all real all
nooise, Like I sometimes the only thing

211
00:14:01.840 --> 00:14:03.120
I'm like when you say Illinois,
I'm like, oh, you mean Chicago,

212
00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:07.559
Like there's more to Chicago than Chicago, you know what I mean.

213
00:14:07.679 --> 00:14:11.320
Like, but here's here's an interesting
interesting Stu. Sorry, no, I

214
00:14:11.360 --> 00:14:13.000
was just saying, like, when
we were in the suburbs, bro,

215
00:14:13.120 --> 00:14:16.759
that place was smacking slapping, dude, it was so packed and we were

216
00:14:16.799 --> 00:14:20.440
like forty five minutes away from Chicago. That's all I just want to say.

217
00:14:20.440 --> 00:14:22.159
It is like they were there.
I mean, I imagine had not

218
00:14:22.240 --> 00:14:26.480
as much change. Like, dude, the weed out there was expensive and

219
00:14:26.519 --> 00:14:30.360
trash. At least it's expensive and
like okay, now yeah, and I'm

220
00:14:30.360 --> 00:14:33.080
sure the street values dropped a bit
too, so they had they had one

221
00:14:33.159 --> 00:14:39.320
hundred and four million dollars came from
in state residence and thirty five point six

222
00:14:39.440 --> 00:14:43.679
million came from out of state tourism. Baby hell exactly. Yeah. I

223
00:14:45.039 --> 00:14:48.600
think that was interesting because like Michigan
has a decent probably amount from the borders

224
00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:52.679
and whatnot. And then when you
you travel the up or you travel the

225
00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:56.039
Traverse City and you come into the
state, Now, yeah, Michigan's like

226
00:14:56.080 --> 00:14:58.720
a hot spot for summer destinations,
right, and even the winter too for

227
00:14:58.799 --> 00:15:01.000
like snowboarding and stuff. So like
we probably have a decent number. I'm

228
00:15:01.000 --> 00:15:05.440
actually curious on that. So it's
just it's cool to see this Illinois open

229
00:15:05.519 --> 00:15:11.000
up the same time as around us. So they'll probably they'll probably hit over

230
00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:15.799
a billion dollars in sales again this
year. Yeah. Yeah, and you've

231
00:15:15.799 --> 00:15:20.279
just see in the market. That's
why I truly don't believe. I mean,

232
00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:22.919
it's not that I don't believe these
businesses are making as much money as

233
00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:26.279
they are, because that makes sense
because what happened is there's more businesses,

234
00:15:26.320 --> 00:15:28.799
so the pie is getting split even
more, right, So that's what happens.

235
00:15:28.919 --> 00:15:33.200
So maybe companies aren't making a ship
ton of money, but like the

236
00:15:33.279 --> 00:15:35.480
overall revenue for the state has just
been seems like it's just going up.

237
00:15:37.320 --> 00:15:41.360
H Yeah, but they're still in
that window of that makes sense. So

238
00:15:41.879 --> 00:15:46.240
yeah, it's a and I think
you're gonna continue to see that trying to

239
00:15:46.279 --> 00:15:48.200
happen at states go legal. But
it's it's good to see that the sale

240
00:15:48.240 --> 00:15:52.679
is still going up when they've been
in business or the state's been legal for

241
00:15:52.720 --> 00:15:54.039
a couple of years, right,
Like, yeah, the same thing in

242
00:15:54.039 --> 00:15:56.559
Michigan. Like people say that the
economy will get into it later, but

243
00:15:56.639 --> 00:16:00.240
they say the economy and not the
economy the Michigan. Yeah, the economy

244
00:16:00.279 --> 00:16:04.159
for cannabis is down, but sales
numbers are still going up because like because

245
00:16:04.559 --> 00:16:07.799
more and more consumers are like,
oh damn, let me try this.

246
00:16:07.799 --> 00:16:11.720
More and more people are talking about
it, yea, And when that happens,

247
00:16:11.720 --> 00:16:14.000
you build a community. More and
more people are trying different things.

248
00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:18.840
So yeah, man, So shout
out to Illinois for doing that. I

249
00:16:18.879 --> 00:16:23.679
wanted to jump into a study real
quick. It's by American Medical Association Journal

250
00:16:25.200 --> 00:16:29.360
saying that smoking marijuana increasingly seen as
safe than cigarettes. I think we talked

251
00:16:29.399 --> 00:16:32.200
about this like a couple other times
ago. I feel like if you smoked

252
00:16:32.240 --> 00:16:36.759
cigarettes for years and smoked weed for
years, you know this, you know

253
00:16:36.799 --> 00:16:40.080
what I mean? Like I feel
like the like like, don't get me

254
00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:42.200
wrong, like there are times where
we might make you like a little mentally

255
00:16:42.240 --> 00:16:45.519
just like af fuck it because a
cigarette doesn't give you that mental high,

256
00:16:45.639 --> 00:16:52.480
right, just gives you that physical
puzz but like cigarettes, yeers definitely.

257
00:16:52.480 --> 00:16:53.399
I mean for me, I mean
I smoke. I don't know if I

258
00:16:53.399 --> 00:16:56.320
talked about this much on the podcast
too much before actually, but I've been

259
00:16:56.360 --> 00:17:00.360
I smoked for five six years cigarettes
and that was Newport short box. Like

260
00:17:00.399 --> 00:17:04.519
I same cigarette and I always smoke
menthal no matter what it was. I

261
00:17:04.599 --> 00:17:10.680
was just screwing my lungs with the
glass like because that's what's in new boards

262
00:17:10.680 --> 00:17:15.480
and ship. And I honestly like
after switching to weed, it's just like

263
00:17:15.880 --> 00:17:17.720
my buddy said this to me a
long time ago. He's like, I

264
00:17:17.759 --> 00:17:22.400
still smoke. He's just the herb
got finer. Yeah, okay, okay,

265
00:17:22.519 --> 00:17:26.680
the trash man. But I just
made that up and that that's that's

266
00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:30.160
really funny actually, But no,
for real, for real though about the

267
00:17:30.160 --> 00:17:37.920
text and that oh many trash man
you coming by, But no, I

268
00:17:37.920 --> 00:17:40.880
think I said, I feel like
I could tell you that because I've smoked.

269
00:17:40.920 --> 00:17:44.640
But that makes sense because all the
additives that go in and tobacco for

270
00:17:44.720 --> 00:17:48.440
preservatives and this and that and chemicals
that they spray it with and and this

271
00:17:48.519 --> 00:17:52.400
is why we're all for organ at
cannabis. This is why we love like,

272
00:17:52.839 --> 00:17:55.079
you know, locally growing up cannabis, because that's how you keep it

273
00:17:55.119 --> 00:17:56.680
fresher. Because eventually, if this
ship comes shipped in, that's what we're

274
00:17:56.680 --> 00:18:00.519
gonna end up having ship there with
preservatives and all this shit and then but

275
00:18:00.599 --> 00:18:04.480
it's gonna be three dollars a Graham
and someone's gonna be like, well fuck,

276
00:18:04.519 --> 00:18:08.319
it probably like a dollar a gram. I'm just making up a number

277
00:18:08.319 --> 00:18:11.599
here. I don't know, like, no, no, no, I

278
00:18:11.640 --> 00:18:12.559
was just shooting out. I was
just yeah, good, that's how that's

279
00:18:12.599 --> 00:18:15.599
how they'll compete you. It'll be
like, yeah, fresh from Thailand sixteen

280
00:18:15.599 --> 00:18:18.480
months ago, and you're like,
yeah, it's seen cargo in there.

281
00:18:18.519 --> 00:18:25.559
For some people's budgets are different.
All what I'm saying is like a dollar.

282
00:18:25.640 --> 00:18:27.200
If you see a dollar a graham, could you imagine seeing a thirty

283
00:18:27.200 --> 00:18:32.839
dollars ounce of like it looks like
okay stuff just because it doesn't taste good.

284
00:18:33.000 --> 00:18:36.119
I'm telling you, man, Looks
are different than taste. Oh dude,

285
00:18:36.279 --> 00:18:40.279
That's like one thing. Yeah,
that's huge within Canadadles is looks and

286
00:18:40.319 --> 00:18:42.839
tastes completely different. I've had some
buddy actually didn't look the bus that tastes

287
00:18:42.920 --> 00:18:47.680
really good, and vice versa.
You've had some shit that looks great that's

288
00:18:47.720 --> 00:18:49.359
smoked like boo boo, yep,
yep. And the reason I want to

289
00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:52.680
bring this up is because you are
you hit on it as well too.

290
00:18:52.720 --> 00:18:55.559
It's like we're starting to see this
as a trend. We we're starting to

291
00:18:55.599 --> 00:19:00.480
see but cannabis is safer than cigarettes, alcohol, pharmaceuticals. We talked about

292
00:19:00.559 --> 00:19:06.359
recent episodes that they believe there was
polls recently done in June that Americans considered

293
00:19:06.400 --> 00:19:11.079
marijuana be less dangerous than cigarettes,
alcohol, and opioids and less addictive than

294
00:19:11.119 --> 00:19:15.079
each one of those substances. So
as more and more states continue to go

295
00:19:15.200 --> 00:19:18.200
legal as medical, all this more
research hints in the airways and you're able

296
00:19:18.240 --> 00:19:21.799
to research it and see it,
and how canvas is just booming. We're

297
00:19:21.799 --> 00:19:23.559
getting the truth out there. And
you're not smoking as much too, you

298
00:19:23.559 --> 00:19:26.400
know, That's the big thing I
want to point out. No matter how

299
00:19:26.480 --> 00:19:30.519
much weed you smoke, you smoke
so many more cigarettes, like you crave

300
00:19:30.599 --> 00:19:33.960
them. It's like it's like like
it's more of like a cocaine high.

301
00:19:34.039 --> 00:19:37.400
It's just quicker, it's faster.
It doesn't last as long, so you

302
00:19:37.440 --> 00:19:41.559
want water quicker. You know,
weed Sometimes you can be high for a

303
00:19:41.559 --> 00:19:45.039
while and like you could just feel
high, like even if you're like I'm

304
00:19:45.039 --> 00:19:47.720
probably not high, but like i
feel like I'm good, Like you know

305
00:19:47.720 --> 00:19:51.319
what I mean, an hour or
two later or a cigarette. A cigarette,

306
00:19:51.359 --> 00:19:53.559
I mean you may not smoke one
every half an hour hour, but

307
00:19:53.599 --> 00:19:56.759
you definitely crave it within that half
an hour. Yeah, so you might.

308
00:19:57.440 --> 00:20:00.720
You know how many smokers, like
they're definitely at least take what half

309
00:20:00.720 --> 00:20:04.039
a pack of day, So that's
ten of those. Like, you're not

310
00:20:04.039 --> 00:20:07.759
smoking ten joints a day. I
mean maybe maybe you are, maybe,

311
00:20:07.480 --> 00:20:11.599
but most people aren't out there just
blazing ten joints a day. And again

312
00:20:11.640 --> 00:20:15.480
most like someone's gonna be hitting us, like I fucking dude, don't be

313
00:20:15.519 --> 00:20:18.119
talking to me. Yeah right,
Like definitely, like I, you know,

314
00:20:18.160 --> 00:20:19.000
I dad more than your normal pst. I mean, if it's a

315
00:20:19.000 --> 00:20:22.920
Saturday and I eat moving from the
couch and I'm just watching movies. Yeah,

316
00:20:22.079 --> 00:20:30.599
maybe, Like challenge accepted ten grams
and about a Graham to one point

317
00:20:30.599 --> 00:20:33.000
five each because Dave doesn't do one
Graham joints anymore. Let's let's be honest,

318
00:20:33.039 --> 00:20:37.000
Like you don't do one gram joint
way and I just grab a couple

319
00:20:37.000 --> 00:20:37.839
of noise crabs. But I was
like, Dave was that way. He's

320
00:20:37.880 --> 00:20:41.480
like I don't know, he's like
probably like a gram or so it's like

321
00:20:41.720 --> 00:20:48.240
one point nine about a half a
joint. I have a joint that's right.

322
00:20:48.279 --> 00:20:52.720
Groove is catching on too, funny, too funny. Let's yeah,

323
00:20:52.920 --> 00:20:56.559
let's jump into you want to pull
that v on? Jump into that video.

324
00:20:56.839 --> 00:20:59.319
Oh yeah, So this this lit
is just a little background this video.

325
00:20:59.400 --> 00:21:02.799
This one's up out the farmer's market, so in the background. Yeah.

326
00:21:02.880 --> 00:21:04.680
Yeah. We talked about We talked
about it on a couple of podcasts

327
00:21:06.200 --> 00:21:11.440
recently and and then we also discussed
this on The Waking Bak. So if

328
00:21:11.440 --> 00:21:14.920
you're not on the Waking Back that's
every Saturday nine am, tune into our

329
00:21:14.960 --> 00:21:18.519
YouTube, my caniccast or Facebook but
YouTube is a bought better or Instagram too,

330
00:21:18.559 --> 00:21:22.680
anywhere. Just search my caniccasts were
live. Yeah I know, I'm

331
00:21:22.720 --> 00:21:26.400
sorry, but don't don't miss out. We were talking about this when I

332
00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:30.279
watched this video previously. I didn't
I thought it was mainly like homegrowers and

333
00:21:30.319 --> 00:21:33.119
everyone's can do it. It seems
like this is for like people that have

334
00:21:33.160 --> 00:21:37.079
a license of some sort in the
state that they just have tons of overages

335
00:21:37.160 --> 00:21:38.519
and then they're sounding and then it's
tax on top of it. It looks

336
00:21:38.559 --> 00:21:42.599
like so that's just getting into the
article or the video. But I'll let

337
00:21:42.640 --> 00:21:47.240
you pull that video up. Yeah, yeah, let's see what they got

338
00:21:47.279 --> 00:21:49.279
to say. That was me,
that was Mike. I was gonna say,

339
00:21:49.279 --> 00:21:52.119
I don't think that was easy because
I was like, I didn't hit

340
00:21:52.160 --> 00:21:56.119
play yet, but that was allowing
cannabis product retail sales. This week especial

341
00:21:56.319 --> 00:22:00.960
pop up events to try to help
address a surplus many now want to growers

342
00:22:00.039 --> 00:22:04.160
or dealing with CBS. Who's Tony
Iella went to New Paul's and Ulster County

343
00:22:04.200 --> 00:22:07.200
to check out the adults only farmers. What do you got to say,

344
00:22:07.240 --> 00:22:11.880
Tony? It had all the trappings
of a traditional farmers marketing with tents and

345
00:22:11.960 --> 00:22:15.559
tables, curious consumers. I hate. I'm happy to have somewhere where I

346
00:22:15.559 --> 00:22:19.200
can meet the people who grow my
products. And one second, how many

347
00:22:19.240 --> 00:22:22.759
times do you hear like one of
those corny like if they're doing something about

348
00:22:22.839 --> 00:22:26.160
umbrellas, they're like, it's gonna
just be above you, Like they just

349
00:22:26.240 --> 00:22:29.640
use any corny thing they can say, how did he How is the first

350
00:22:29.640 --> 00:22:33.559
one trap on this news? That's
hilarious to be all right? Anyways,

351
00:22:33.119 --> 00:22:37.079
I had to pause this for a
second because that just killed me. When

352
00:22:37.079 --> 00:22:41.240
he's like trap, like, what
is it? Trappings? What trappings?

353
00:22:41.240 --> 00:22:42.759
This had all the Yeah, but
no I know, but news people will

354
00:22:42.759 --> 00:22:45.920
always like put words in there for
puns. They'll always throw a bunch of

355
00:22:45.920 --> 00:22:48.680
puns. I gathered you. Some
clever writer was like, hey, trap

356
00:22:51.799 --> 00:22:57.279
and knowledgeable farmers, have you got
killer Queen Mimosa? But security checking IDAs

357
00:22:57.519 --> 00:23:03.000
set this adults only mark get up
farm. Thursday's event was New York's first

358
00:23:03.039 --> 00:23:07.920
ever pop up sale of pot products. Despite the rain, customers lined up

359
00:23:08.160 --> 00:23:14.279
as four Hudson Valley farms prepared to
make history. They're excited excited as well.

360
00:23:15.559 --> 00:23:19.400
This turn out their product moving.
J. Peterson is with Legacy Dispensary

361
00:23:19.400 --> 00:23:25.480
of Albany, founded by people who
suffered under previous prohibitions of cannabis. The

362
00:23:25.519 --> 00:23:30.440
state requires a licensed dispensary at pop
ups to handle all sales stuff to smoke,

363
00:23:32.079 --> 00:23:36.480
to eat, to drink. This
really represented a boy have times changed

364
00:23:36.599 --> 00:23:41.480
kind of moment. The Cannabis Growers
showcase took place right outside the old village

365
00:23:41.480 --> 00:23:45.720
of New Paul's Court, where many
people over the years were sentenced for simple

366
00:23:45.799 --> 00:23:49.480
pot possession. The pop ups are
intended to help New York farmers who grew

367
00:23:49.680 --> 00:23:56.680
massive amounts of marijuana and now are
sitting on a surplus. With their best

368
00:23:56.720 --> 00:24:02.880
intentions has been very flow and issuing
licensed dispensaries. So you have two hundred

369
00:24:03.039 --> 00:24:07.920
ninety growers, you have twenty one
dispensaries. When farmers planted last year,

370
00:24:07.200 --> 00:24:12.519
the state indicated there would be up
to seventy dispensaries open by Now that's twofold,

371
00:24:12.559 --> 00:24:15.920
right. I think the state also
realized how much money they were missing

372
00:24:15.960 --> 00:24:18.400
out on, and on this slow
route roll out in sales. With a

373
00:24:18.480 --> 00:24:22.880
thirteen percent tax rate, the state
is counting on legal pot to bring in

374
00:24:22.920 --> 00:24:27.599
more than up a billion dollars before
twenty twenty eight. This money, indeed,

375
00:24:27.880 --> 00:24:34.039
so where the money goes, you
must follow. These marijuana markets expected

376
00:24:34.079 --> 00:24:38.319
to pop up all across New York
in the months ahead. In New Paul's

377
00:24:38.440 --> 00:24:44.880
Ulster County, Tony, I yellow
CBS two News. But yeah, that

378
00:24:44.960 --> 00:24:48.200
was pretty sweet, man, Not
gonna lie. I enjoy that, because

379
00:24:48.240 --> 00:24:51.839
I mean Michigan. I could totally
see Michigan adopting something like that. You

380
00:24:51.880 --> 00:24:56.000
know what I'm saying. I can
see it too. But I just hope

381
00:24:56.039 --> 00:25:00.119
they open it up to where home
grow like your own per cultivation you could

382
00:25:00.119 --> 00:25:03.000
do it. Man, there's like
a small license. It's almost been like

383
00:25:03.039 --> 00:25:04.480
a micro license, but not even
a micro license, right, Like what

384
00:25:04.480 --> 00:25:08.119
if you just grow your own cornshit? Like do they have licenses? Eastern

385
00:25:08.119 --> 00:25:12.160
Market, That's what That's what I
pitched. There's market and if you're not

386
00:25:12.240 --> 00:25:15.880
familiar with what I'm saying, like
you go to this in Detroit. There's

387
00:25:15.880 --> 00:25:19.279
this Eastern Market where you can go
and pick fresh produce from local Michigan growers

388
00:25:21.119 --> 00:25:26.000
or farmers I should say, not
growers, farmers and they have anything from

389
00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:32.119
strawberries to lettuce to probably there's some
meat. Yeah, they mentioned get everything

390
00:25:32.200 --> 00:25:34.160
like yeah they have their own there's
own meat places there too, where they

391
00:25:34.599 --> 00:25:37.920
their own cattle and stuff. Yeah, So that's what I was trying.

392
00:25:37.039 --> 00:25:40.480
I was trying to say with licensing, I don't know. I feel like

393
00:25:40.559 --> 00:25:42.599
maybe if you're a legal farm,
maybe you have to go through some type

394
00:25:42.640 --> 00:25:47.200
of like I don't want to say
like security thing, but kind of like

395
00:25:47.200 --> 00:25:48.759
how like you know, OSHA will
go check up on restaurants. I feel

396
00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:52.799
like there's got to be some regulation
for farming where they just go buy and

397
00:25:52.839 --> 00:25:56.319
just make sure. Right, But
again, like at what level? Probably

398
00:25:56.319 --> 00:26:00.240
when you're selling to like markets like
grocery store and stuff you may not for

399
00:26:00.359 --> 00:26:03.839
like Eastern market. I don't know
how that works. I feel like you

400
00:26:03.920 --> 00:26:06.480
could just be in your mom and
pop could just be growing some tomatoes.

401
00:26:06.519 --> 00:26:08.359
It could be like you know,
like in your backyard you have a couple

402
00:26:08.319 --> 00:26:11.799
of acres and you just grow.
Yeah, like that That's where my head

403
00:26:12.160 --> 00:26:15.319
like to squash should just be like
our business, right Like, that's what

404
00:26:15.359 --> 00:26:19.920
I envisioned as open market when when
we talk to farmers markets. So I

405
00:26:19.960 --> 00:26:22.200
was a little bit off on that. So I do want to clarify it

406
00:26:22.279 --> 00:26:26.920
is mainly companies that have a license
already in New York that hasn't sold,

407
00:26:26.920 --> 00:26:30.279
And that's what they were saying.
They're just sitting on extra weight because it's

408
00:26:30.319 --> 00:26:36.880
been a slow rollout. New York
government has going slow with not everyone can

409
00:26:36.960 --> 00:26:40.720
just get there. You know.
This isn't like in Michigan or in the

410
00:26:40.720 --> 00:26:42.920
suburbs of Detroit, like a lot
of times people have cars. You live

411
00:26:42.960 --> 00:26:45.880
in the cityman, some people go
their whole lives without cars. You don't

412
00:26:45.880 --> 00:26:48.759
need them with that good at transit
when everything's right there on your block.

413
00:26:49.359 --> 00:26:52.519
You know what I'm saying, So
my idea is, like you take that

414
00:26:52.599 --> 00:26:56.960
to the customers. They could take
this farmer's market to every single neighborhood in

415
00:26:56.000 --> 00:27:00.279
New York. You know, it's
Yonkers, or it's or bron so,

416
00:27:00.319 --> 00:27:03.519
you know, and then they go
to you know wherever, right Manhattan.

417
00:27:03.920 --> 00:27:07.200
You know, I'm sure those areas
of the city will be like, Okay,

418
00:27:07.240 --> 00:27:10.039
we don't got to own a disbo, but we can make a little

419
00:27:10.039 --> 00:27:11.920
bit of that tax money real quick. Right, yeah, I'll think a

420
00:27:11.920 --> 00:27:17.960
little bit of tax money. So
I like it. I like the idea,

421
00:27:18.039 --> 00:27:19.920
and like sure, I mean,
I love the idea of just a

422
00:27:19.960 --> 00:27:22.799
farmer's market with a bunch of caregivers
and ship but like, let's be real,

423
00:27:22.839 --> 00:27:26.079
those are already gray area. There's
are they're already going on. You

424
00:27:26.160 --> 00:27:29.599
just gotta figure out where they're at. You know, I'm sure they're going

425
00:27:29.680 --> 00:27:33.920
on in New York, you know
what I mean. For a legal farmer's

426
00:27:33.000 --> 00:27:37.400
market like this, I think it's
fascinating. But I also think like it's

427
00:27:37.440 --> 00:27:41.839
actually really convenient for the customers because
not everyone can just get everywhere, you

428
00:27:41.880 --> 00:27:44.960
know. True, I think there's
that big bonu. Well, because then

429
00:27:44.960 --> 00:27:48.319
it's New York too, It's expensive
to get places. It's expensive to do

430
00:27:48.319 --> 00:27:51.000
a lot of things. So they
bring that shit to you and say it's

431
00:27:51.039 --> 00:27:53.640
like they had a rotating calendar,
kind of like with those like food trucks.

432
00:27:55.119 --> 00:27:57.759
Right, I mean, that's that's
awesome. For the cities, man,

433
00:27:57.880 --> 00:28:02.440
that's huge, like in it's not
big as as big because you know,

434
00:28:02.640 --> 00:28:07.400
usually most households have a car,
but there's many households in big cities

435
00:28:07.400 --> 00:28:10.000
that don't have cars. When I
was in Chicago, I didn't have a

436
00:28:10.000 --> 00:28:11.759
car for all three years. I
didn't need one. I mean, it

437
00:28:11.759 --> 00:28:14.799
would have been nice, I guess, but it would have been way more

438
00:28:14.839 --> 00:28:19.720
expensive. But no, I didn't
say that. Uber Money called that candidate

439
00:28:21.319 --> 00:28:27.920
this candycap. We got high.
It was a candy cap allegedly. Yes,

440
00:28:29.079 --> 00:28:32.440
yes, yes, so so that
that was cool that we be able

441
00:28:32.440 --> 00:28:34.920
to find that and get more clarification
on what the farmers mean. That's sweet

442
00:28:34.960 --> 00:28:37.359
here too, though. Imagine if
they did that in Romeo. There's no

443
00:28:37.440 --> 00:28:41.400
dispos up there, No, there
is no. I just picked somethe really

444
00:28:41.400 --> 00:28:48.160
far on that backfired, uh past
anywhere in the middle of nowhere. Right,

445
00:28:48.160 --> 00:28:49.640
you can take these and you can
start doing these little pop ups.

446
00:28:49.759 --> 00:28:53.000
Oh, you know them, you
get you introduced the customers to your products.

447
00:28:53.039 --> 00:28:55.920
I mean in general, if you
just did something to Troy and you

448
00:28:55.920 --> 00:28:57.759
just said every brand was able to
particip need to go boom, right.

449
00:28:57.799 --> 00:29:00.720
I just look at it as likeds
like you want, like in a mass

450
00:29:00.759 --> 00:29:04.000
area brands in Detroit, right,
just for our example, because we're from

451
00:29:04.000 --> 00:29:07.279
Michigan, they could go do a
pop up near Wayne State and get all

452
00:29:07.279 --> 00:29:10.640
that Wayne State money. Because you
can't have a dispone in that area.

453
00:29:10.720 --> 00:29:11.960
But if you do a pop up
in that area and a parking lot,

454
00:29:12.160 --> 00:29:15.440
maybe you get all those Wayne State
people to be like, oh shit,

455
00:29:15.839 --> 00:29:18.680
I like this right. So that
was my idea is like now in New

456
00:29:18.759 --> 00:29:22.839
York, they take this farmer's market
to somewhere where their clientele will be.

457
00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:23.759
I don't know New York as well. Right, they just go to that

458
00:29:23.839 --> 00:29:27.279
area and now you get some more
customers. You gain those customers, now

459
00:29:27.279 --> 00:29:32.240
they're gonna got your product, you
know. So it's I see it on

460
00:29:32.319 --> 00:29:34.599
both ends. Why it's beneficial and
why I don't really see the negative.

461
00:29:36.799 --> 00:29:40.240
You know, maybe just security robberies
that type of shit. Just get some

462
00:29:40.279 --> 00:29:44.440
more scaredy get some arm security,
and there probably is it's cannabis. There

463
00:29:44.480 --> 00:29:47.920
always is with that. It is
that stigma on it. Well you just

464
00:29:48.160 --> 00:29:52.440
I mean with anything valuable, you
need arm scaredy. Hopefully you'll never have

465
00:29:52.480 --> 00:29:56.400
to use them. But the whole
point is like, is there there you

466
00:29:56.400 --> 00:30:00.160
want to pull up in the commercials? Get pull up a commercial. We

467
00:30:00.960 --> 00:30:04.960
jump into we have one more article
you I could do that. Nice,

468
00:30:06.039 --> 00:30:07.559
nice, I appreciate you. We
got one more article. It's gonna be

469
00:30:07.559 --> 00:30:14.680
talking about federal appeals and a gun
and guns. This is crazy because this

470
00:30:14.720 --> 00:30:17.119
has been such a crazy topic.
It's on and off. Anyways, this

471
00:30:17.160 --> 00:30:19.880
is a little pop up we did
at meat connect Puff. We do like

472
00:30:19.960 --> 00:30:23.440
media coverage and stuff for events.
We do like live event coverage to the

473
00:30:23.480 --> 00:30:26.160
live stream from there, and then
we did side interviews. This is one

474
00:30:26.200 --> 00:30:30.640
of our side interviews from a really
cool company called gas Station Cultivation. I

475
00:30:30.680 --> 00:30:34.279
actually really like there's Zulser, the
rosin the live resin the carts. I've

476
00:30:34.279 --> 00:30:37.599
just been really into the Zulzer.
It's been gas so check it out.

477
00:30:37.799 --> 00:30:41.599
Go what up, everybody, it's
Candidave. I'm moving. We're over here

478
00:30:41.640 --> 00:30:45.440
at meat connect Puff with gas Station
Cultivation products. We just got her new

479
00:30:45.440 --> 00:30:49.960
processing license a few months ago.
Ever since then, we've just been blasting

480
00:30:51.000 --> 00:30:55.039
away and we've been creating a lot
of high quality live resin in the house

481
00:30:55.119 --> 00:30:59.759
material. Here's been running some cured
material. No CRC on all of it.

482
00:31:00.039 --> 00:31:06.440
We did not even so we like, I love that. So pre

483
00:31:06.720 --> 00:31:08.240
Roles Daves. Is there anything you
don't do? Yeah, I mean we

484
00:31:08.279 --> 00:31:12.279
do everything, definitely. So we
do all the package and we do all

485
00:31:12.359 --> 00:31:15.640
the growing, we do all the
extractions. Smells like some dank, smells

486
00:31:15.640 --> 00:31:19.880
like fire. Can't As always we
were to advocate, educate, Yo,

487
00:31:22.680 --> 00:31:26.000
no peace here we are. We're
not something. We're not gone right,

488
00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:30.920
there's no peace. But yeah,
let's jump into this. Uh this m

489
00:31:30.920 --> 00:31:34.079
I camp pros And for that event, Harry Barish appreciate you. Yes,

490
00:31:34.160 --> 00:31:37.960
that was fun. Check it out
for Facebook. Part of that group be

491
00:31:37.039 --> 00:31:40.880
involved. Yeah, we look forward
to doing hopefully the next event coming up

492
00:31:40.920 --> 00:31:45.200
sounds like h September twenty seven,
so we'll be live streaming. Also,

493
00:31:45.599 --> 00:31:49.359
shout out to our partners who make
this special all the time. Shout out

494
00:31:49.400 --> 00:31:52.119
too, m My law faw right
here at the Garlic Cocktail. This is

495
00:31:52.119 --> 00:31:59.680
the High Times Cup winner Garlic Cocktail
Fire. We got old school organics right

496
00:31:59.720 --> 00:32:02.680
behind I met lean your head.
There you go. Okay, yeah,

497
00:32:02.759 --> 00:32:12.359
coming out with the retro good timing. I don't you didn't both at the

498
00:32:12.400 --> 00:32:15.559
same time, and I don't see
any play. Oh that was gas.

499
00:32:15.640 --> 00:32:20.319
I hope I can. I hope. I cut this clip mark the time

500
00:32:21.079 --> 00:32:25.839
and then amial fire fire Yeah like
yep, that's off some gas as well.

501
00:32:27.279 --> 00:32:30.160
I can't remember anything that was it. There is, so our partners

502
00:32:30.160 --> 00:32:31.440
they got some good fire. If
you ever have any questions about them,

503
00:32:31.440 --> 00:32:34.680
where where to find them, just
reach out to them, tell them my

504
00:32:34.759 --> 00:32:37.240
candcasts sent you. They go.
They bring the gas to the industry,

505
00:32:37.359 --> 00:32:43.039
came from the caregiver. Markets have
morals, have standards, feel for the

506
00:32:43.079 --> 00:32:46.319
customer, and they're all about quality
over quantity. So are they have to

507
00:32:46.319 --> 00:32:52.279
sit similar roots is as damn it
got you. We love them, we

508
00:32:52.440 --> 00:32:54.519
appreciate them, and then let's jump
into let's do this. So the next

509
00:32:54.519 --> 00:32:58.359
one, what you would you want
to jump into? Federal peels of court

510
00:32:58.440 --> 00:33:04.039
rules that done band for mayor one
of consumers is unconstitutional? Oh yeah,

511
00:33:04.039 --> 00:33:07.400
it always has been anyways, No, right, but that's good. This

512
00:33:07.480 --> 00:33:09.599
is good because the more and more
of this stuff happens, you're didn't be

513
00:33:09.640 --> 00:33:13.119
able to happen. Yeah, I
don't think this actually overturns it. But

514
00:33:13.119 --> 00:33:15.440
this is now the second or second
or third federal judge to do this,

515
00:33:15.480 --> 00:33:19.759
so like I hope to try.
The last one they reversed the conviction of

516
00:33:19.799 --> 00:33:22.680
the man who was sentenced in nearly
four years. No, I understand,

517
00:33:22.680 --> 00:33:24.880
but the last time this one got
reversed the last time this happened, so

518
00:33:24.920 --> 00:33:28.640
I'm not holding my breath. But
at the same time, as I don't

519
00:33:28.680 --> 00:33:32.160
think it's ever been on constitutional and
I don't think there's enough really for people

520
00:33:32.240 --> 00:33:37.759
to charge on that because like if
you were really to go through every single

521
00:33:37.799 --> 00:33:40.680
person, it's just not possible.
Like this is the Second Amendment's been around

522
00:33:40.720 --> 00:33:45.519
for so long that a lot of
people own and and like smoking. But

523
00:33:45.680 --> 00:33:49.599
I'm sure they smoke weeds sometimes Like
it's it's it's not it's a silly law.

524
00:33:50.359 --> 00:33:52.640
You know, it doesn't make sense. So I mean, because you

525
00:33:52.640 --> 00:33:54.599
gotta remember that it's not even to
me, it's does even makes sense that

526
00:33:54.720 --> 00:34:00.359
canvas is even on the scheduled drug
less list to begin with. So agreed,

527
00:34:00.480 --> 00:34:02.880
dude, agreed, So we'll see
Helpfay help way goes through. Yeah,

528
00:34:02.920 --> 00:34:07.640
I'm hoping uh more and more like
this happens, because this is just

529
00:34:07.720 --> 00:34:12.199
good news for cannabis towards just like
why isn't it decriminalized, Like it just

530
00:34:12.199 --> 00:34:14.880
doesn't make sense, you know,
why is it still scheduled one drug?

531
00:34:15.239 --> 00:34:17.960
Like that doesn't make sense. It's
just one of the other things that I

532
00:34:17.960 --> 00:34:21.280
always say that it just steps on
your other rights. It's just one of

533
00:34:21.320 --> 00:34:23.440
the rights that does it doesn't it
shouldn't, you know, And there's a

534
00:34:23.440 --> 00:34:27.400
lot of gray area with a lot
of states. And that's just way because

535
00:34:27.440 --> 00:34:30.480
at the end DA it doesn't make
sense. No, you know, it

536
00:34:30.519 --> 00:34:32.400
does not. It does not.
And that's like the whole industry as a

537
00:34:32.400 --> 00:34:36.960
whole though, like you can't write
stuff off, you can't bank. But

538
00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:39.719
it's true, like you like,
there's just so much stuff as a whole

539
00:34:39.880 --> 00:34:44.400
industry like fails on. But you're
right, I mean, well, we'll

540
00:34:44.400 --> 00:34:46.719
see what happens. Like this is
a This is another case that in it's

541
00:34:46.760 --> 00:34:51.199
appeals court for I don't know what
state or no, it is just the

542
00:34:51.199 --> 00:34:54.119
appeals court for the US. So
I mean that is big. That is

543
00:34:54.159 --> 00:34:59.719
big. They are quoted in saying
throughout American history, and laws have regulated

544
00:34:59.760 --> 00:35:02.920
the combination of guns and intoxicating substances, but at no point in the eighteenth

545
00:35:02.960 --> 00:35:07.199
or nineteenth century did the government disarmed
individuals who use drugs or alcohol at one

546
00:35:07.280 --> 00:35:12.280
time for possessing guns at another.
That's what the Compiler Court said, Yeah,

547
00:35:12.280 --> 00:35:15.360
because like if you smoke, you
don't just lose your You don't get

548
00:35:15.360 --> 00:35:16.880
to lose your free speech all of
a sudden, right exactly. I mean,

549
00:35:17.239 --> 00:35:20.400
and that's huge because like that's honestly
the guy the truth, Like,

550
00:35:20.800 --> 00:35:22.239
you're not supposed to have your gun
and drink on You're not. You shouldn't

551
00:35:22.239 --> 00:35:24.239
be smoking. We didn't have a
gun. It doesn't make sense, Yeah,

552
00:35:24.280 --> 00:35:30.119
because I'm pretty sure most people hunt
and drink. Are you hunting with

553
00:35:30.159 --> 00:35:38.239
feathers, sand sparkles, throw throw
sand pillows? You might build next them.

554
00:35:38.360 --> 00:35:43.159
I don't think you could. Animals
are pretip Anyways. My whole point

555
00:35:43.239 --> 00:35:45.960
is doesn't make sense. Never made
sense. It's like being able to ruse

556
00:35:45.280 --> 00:35:49.800
like, oh you smoke, you
you smoke cannabis, so now we can,

557
00:35:49.840 --> 00:35:52.199
like any the other amendments, you
just get lost. It never made

558
00:35:52.199 --> 00:35:54.760
sense. That's the same thing with
smell being a probable cause, and you

559
00:35:54.760 --> 00:35:59.880
lose your right to seizure like search
and Caesar. It's why I get annoyed,

560
00:36:00.159 --> 00:36:01.719
because you shouldn't lose your rights because
of one other, because of spot

561
00:36:02.199 --> 00:36:06.159
what you do in your own privacy
your home is one thing. If you

562
00:36:06.199 --> 00:36:08.360
get caught trafficking weed, I get
it that. And then all of a

563
00:36:08.360 --> 00:36:12.519
sudden, now they have four guns
and like eighteen pounds and a brick of

564
00:36:12.599 --> 00:36:15.320
cocaine. Okay, I get it
right, they're doing some bad things.

565
00:36:15.840 --> 00:36:22.280
But you shouldn't just disarmed grandma because
she's got glaucoma. I love that.

566
00:36:22.280 --> 00:36:28.519
That's good. True, do not
disarmed Grandma? I like that, that's

567
00:36:28.559 --> 00:36:34.400
good. Yeah, none wants disarmed
ground. But yeah, so what was

568
00:36:34.400 --> 00:36:37.639
that? Are we back in Michigan? Now? Yeah, they were jumping.

569
00:36:37.960 --> 00:36:40.679
Now we're jumping into Michigan. I
do have a funny article actually before

570
00:36:40.679 --> 00:36:45.400
we jump into Michigan. It's not
really funny. It's actually sad. If

571
00:36:45.440 --> 00:36:47.360
he's just like just the headline's funny, I haven't really read it. So

572
00:36:47.480 --> 00:36:52.239
the headline the headline and reads funny. So it goes miss Minnesota governor invites

573
00:36:52.320 --> 00:36:57.440
Iowa adults to come by marijuana and
watch baseball in the state. Fine legalization.

574
00:37:00.039 --> 00:37:02.280
What he wants to basically just comes
celebrate by hang on and watch playing

575
00:37:02.360 --> 00:37:07.960
baseball, because I was it's illegal. So he's saying, come come to

576
00:37:07.119 --> 00:37:12.800
Minnesota, smoke some buyweed, which
is revenue for the state of Minnesota,

577
00:37:12.840 --> 00:37:15.360
and watch a football game or a
baseball game. Wow. Oh he's running

578
00:37:15.360 --> 00:37:19.360
an add in Iowa. Oh yeah. He was just quoted as saying that.

579
00:37:19.519 --> 00:37:22.320
Oh. I literally thought they had
like a billboard in Iowa saying come

580
00:37:22.360 --> 00:37:25.400
to Minnesota, your state can't weed. Like wow, they should do that.

581
00:37:25.440 --> 00:37:28.800
First off, someone approved it.
Second off, Like that's why I

582
00:37:28.840 --> 00:37:32.360
got so CONFU that's awesome. I
like that day's gonna do it to Ohio

583
00:37:32.519 --> 00:37:38.760
just because he's like why they actually
might be legal. The opportunity this Indiana.

584
00:37:38.800 --> 00:37:43.480
We'll do it to Indiana the last
one. Once we get them,

585
00:37:43.559 --> 00:37:47.079
it's like it'll be completely legal around
us. I just find it. I

586
00:37:47.159 --> 00:37:52.920
find it funny that you got a
governor going, hey, come on out

587
00:37:52.960 --> 00:37:54.719
to our state and buy weed.
Like there he was like against it,

588
00:37:54.880 --> 00:37:59.360
like what six eight months ago,
it's illegal, and then like it's just

589
00:37:59.400 --> 00:38:01.119
the views of people. And then
like the politicians once it's legal in their

590
00:38:01.159 --> 00:38:05.199
state. And then they're like,
oh, remember Minnesota when we talked about

591
00:38:05.199 --> 00:38:10.280
two weeks ago, they were that
I had a line outside the tribal hearts

592
00:38:10.320 --> 00:38:15.559
called right a kick back. I
don't care what it is. I just

593
00:38:15.559 --> 00:38:17.639
find to hilarious that he's like called
on the Iowa pretty much. I bet

594
00:38:17.639 --> 00:38:21.840
you everyone was happier and money was
being made, and all of a sudden,

595
00:38:21.880 --> 00:38:22.760
he like he didn't have to do
this, and he was probably like,

596
00:38:23.000 --> 00:38:25.960
let let him smoke, because that's
what I'm trying to tell you.

597
00:38:27.039 --> 00:38:30.079
Like, there are so many like
issues with stress and money and taxes,

598
00:38:30.119 --> 00:38:35.119
and like I have like a few
things that I could change the tax around,

599
00:38:35.199 --> 00:38:37.800
but like just legalizing cannabis. And
I don't want to pay tax on

600
00:38:37.800 --> 00:38:39.199
cannabis, Like I don't want to
pay outrage and let me explain me.

601
00:38:39.239 --> 00:38:44.400
At first, I don't want to
pay outrageous taxes on cannabis like this twenty

602
00:38:44.440 --> 00:38:47.000
percent, you know, but when
you're talking like five to ten percent,

603
00:38:47.119 --> 00:38:51.760
like I get that, fine,
I'll pay that just to not be bothered,

604
00:38:52.039 --> 00:38:53.599
just to be able to do it, just to push through the charge

605
00:38:54.199 --> 00:38:58.079
that it'll be legal. And some
people don't want that some people just want

606
00:38:58.079 --> 00:39:00.679
to be able to buy in the
street and save the money because they're thinking

607
00:39:00.679 --> 00:39:04.119
about their pocketbooks first. And I
get that because at the end of the

608
00:39:04.159 --> 00:39:07.199
day of this world's tough, like
get putting your pocket books first. But

609
00:39:07.239 --> 00:39:12.199
when it comes to weed, man, like I just wanted people to get

610
00:39:12.239 --> 00:39:15.199
out of the jails and all this
other stuff because to me, there's just

611
00:39:15.239 --> 00:39:19.079
like so much wrongdoing. And if
it's just five ten percent, then it's

612
00:39:19.079 --> 00:39:21.280
not that's not a big deal to
me. It's when you get to these

613
00:39:21.280 --> 00:39:22.800
fifteen twenty percent, its like,
even though it's wearing sixteen, I think

614
00:39:22.800 --> 00:39:30.360
it's a little lie. It's yeah, and I and that's that's what But

615
00:39:30.400 --> 00:39:32.800
that's the balance, right, But
that's what I think taxis should be paying

616
00:39:32.800 --> 00:39:37.360
for. Is that right? The
things that make us have to help us

617
00:39:37.400 --> 00:39:40.880
have the rights to do so,
right, like pay the this the system

618
00:39:40.960 --> 00:39:44.639
to whatever, the testing, all
that stuff, like pay for something that

619
00:39:44.679 --> 00:39:46.280
needs to be done. Don't just
be putting money in people's pockets. You

620
00:39:46.280 --> 00:39:49.920
know. That's why it made the
joke, because the kickbacks because a lot

621
00:39:49.960 --> 00:39:52.599
of people who are making the things
happen are these companies who are just paying

622
00:39:52.599 --> 00:39:54.679
politicians, and it's like, I'm
never mad when it's a good thing for

623
00:39:54.719 --> 00:39:58.199
weed, but I'm a mad when
it's a bad thing for weed. Right,

624
00:39:58.400 --> 00:40:01.039
but either way shady. So I
just feel like that guy just saw

625
00:40:01.079 --> 00:40:05.679
the tax money or got some money
from it. It was like or smoked

626
00:40:05.719 --> 00:40:07.480
the joint. Maybe it was like, oh shit, this is is gas.

627
00:40:09.880 --> 00:40:14.800
He said that. Oh shit,
fam, this is lit. Let

628
00:40:14.800 --> 00:40:16.480
me let me get that, let
me get the runs. The run.

629
00:40:16.639 --> 00:40:21.920
Damn it, David. It almost
went to an episode without mentioning runs.

630
00:40:21.960 --> 00:40:28.440
Almost it's always runs. But let's
let's bring let's bring it home'or wrapping

631
00:40:28.440 --> 00:40:30.599
it up, let's bring it back
to our home state of me Ischi again,

632
00:40:31.119 --> 00:40:37.159
we're gonna be yes the glove the
glove. So like we talked about

633
00:40:37.239 --> 00:40:39.840
previously in the beginning of the episode, Yeah, pretty much right on point.

634
00:40:40.440 --> 00:40:45.039
Uh, Michigan set a record for
sales, just like pretty much Iowa

635
00:40:45.280 --> 00:40:51.639
or Illinois a not Iowa were in
July, we sold over two hundred and

636
00:40:51.679 --> 00:41:00.880
seventy dollars two hundred and seventy million
dollars worth of cannabis products. I don't

637
00:41:00.880 --> 00:41:04.760
know say so, I just try
a dude. It's just well, no,

638
00:41:04.920 --> 00:41:07.440
because I still because I've heard like, oh, the Michigan market's just

639
00:41:07.440 --> 00:41:08.840
not where it was. The Michigan
market's just not where it was. No,

640
00:41:08.920 --> 00:41:12.239
I think your company just wasn't as
good as you thought it was,

641
00:41:12.320 --> 00:41:14.519
right, I'm just kidding, that's
fucked up. But it's like I feel

642
00:41:14.519 --> 00:41:16.360
like right now is like at the
end of the day of what's happening right

643
00:41:16.400 --> 00:41:19.800
now is you're finally starting to see
that divide. It's becoming more of a

644
00:41:19.800 --> 00:41:22.239
business than making money because you're seeing
more piece of the pie being given out.

645
00:41:22.400 --> 00:41:24.840
That's it, Like I just said
that earlier. But their car their

646
00:41:24.880 --> 00:41:28.599
carving their place in the industry,
right, Like, if you have good

647
00:41:28.639 --> 00:41:31.679
morals, you have quality product,
and you know what you're doing, you've

648
00:41:31.679 --> 00:41:36.519
been doing it for a while.
Because most people who are successful right now

649
00:41:36.519 --> 00:41:38.679
are probably a good chance, in
my opinion, came from the legacy and

650
00:41:38.880 --> 00:41:43.400
understood that they had some prior experience
within cannabis, right, right, and

651
00:41:43.760 --> 00:41:46.559
how they have quality product. Maybe
it's it's growing. The business is different

652
00:41:46.599 --> 00:41:50.519
now compared to what it was previously, right because now you're doing it on

653
00:41:50.679 --> 00:41:53.320
scale, it's a lot bigger.
There's probably a little bit more loops and

654
00:41:53.320 --> 00:41:59.000
holes with the CIRA and everything,
but they're gonna be able to start continuing

655
00:41:59.039 --> 00:42:00.159
to bring that quality pro like the
more and more people are going to go

656
00:42:00.199 --> 00:42:04.400
by it in the hundred percent.
I think you're right, That's what I

657
00:42:04.400 --> 00:42:07.079
was trying to say. You're seeing
that divide between the pieces of pie getting

658
00:42:07.079 --> 00:42:09.480
bigger and the other pieces going away
or disappearing. And then sure there are

659
00:42:09.519 --> 00:42:13.119
companies being added to that pie,
right, And so that's why I said,

660
00:42:13.119 --> 00:42:15.400
I think you're seeing some of the
lower end companies have issues and struggle,

661
00:42:15.880 --> 00:42:19.719
but it's also like the companies that
are on the top end, you're

662
00:42:19.760 --> 00:42:22.000
seeing them like starting to like take
off, and you're starting to because people

663
00:42:22.000 --> 00:42:25.280
are starting to get It's like that
brand recognition is finally being built. Yeah,

664
00:42:25.280 --> 00:42:28.519
I thinking about this. You see
old school, you see my laugh?

665
00:42:28.559 --> 00:42:30.719
Are you see Emerald? Like you
have a brand, right, you

666
00:42:30.199 --> 00:42:32.960
know what I mean? Some of
these new casts don't have one yet and

667
00:42:34.000 --> 00:42:37.119
they're trying to find their place in
the industry. But here's the thing though,

668
00:42:37.159 --> 00:42:39.000
too, I think some of that's
continue to push these numbers, and

669
00:42:39.000 --> 00:42:45.760
I'm curious there's a theory or thought
is collapse, right, Like concentrates don't.

670
00:42:45.039 --> 00:42:50.119
Concentrates aren't like one of the biggest
sale I don't try if you look

671
00:42:50.159 --> 00:42:53.760
at it based on the article and
this is from New Cannabis Adventures dot com,

672
00:42:54.599 --> 00:42:58.199
flowers like the number one with one
hundred and twenty six million sales and

673
00:42:58.239 --> 00:43:04.239
then it goes the vapes fifty one
million, and then concentrates and inhaleable concentrates

674
00:43:04.360 --> 00:43:07.440
or fifteen million and twenty four million. But I think a lot of collaborations

675
00:43:07.480 --> 00:43:10.360
within brands, like think about the
d n K fifth age Clad like that

676
00:43:10.360 --> 00:43:15.559
that's been really good, or pressure
pack in North Coast or element with like

677
00:43:15.639 --> 00:43:19.480
Progo or Element with when they do
those live resin stuff with the flour and

678
00:43:19.519 --> 00:43:22.800
they match the oil like a lot
of those tons of claps. I means,

679
00:43:24.199 --> 00:43:27.800
I think that's how you build relationships, you build trust in the industry,

680
00:43:27.960 --> 00:43:31.760
that that you start putting brands more
at like not levels per se,

681
00:43:31.800 --> 00:43:35.800
but you they work with brands that
work are at their level, right,

682
00:43:35.840 --> 00:43:38.719
Like so you start so the customer, you start connecting brands, yeah,

683
00:43:38.760 --> 00:43:42.760
and then that are in your right
and then you see then you're gonna be

684
00:43:42.840 --> 00:43:45.559
more inclined to try that product on
another category, right, like you like

685
00:43:45.599 --> 00:43:50.079
on my lav hoarse Flour, you
might go try it their extract then by

686
00:43:50.119 --> 00:43:52.079
Cannaby because it's it's like, oh, okay, that's good, right,

687
00:43:52.119 --> 00:43:54.920
because that's what I'm saying, like
all the all the clabs. And that's

688
00:43:54.920 --> 00:43:58.159
the thing about fifth Age. I
think that's when we were talking to Josh

689
00:43:58.199 --> 00:44:00.159
on that episode. Check it out
if you haven't. But the Josh episode

690
00:44:00.159 --> 00:44:04.480
was great because that's like a big
thing of his just clapping, like it

691
00:44:04.519 --> 00:44:07.320
doesn't even seem like you know,
yeah, it's just just all he wants

692
00:44:07.320 --> 00:44:08.599
to do. You know, he
likes to make the best. He to

693
00:44:08.639 --> 00:44:10.679
me, he's making makes some of
the best hash ros in the state.

694
00:44:13.760 --> 00:44:19.639
It's just fire ass rosin. Uh
yeah. But that's just it just shows

695
00:44:19.679 --> 00:44:22.599
that the state of Michigan continues to
love cannabis. Doesn't look like it's slowing

696
00:44:22.639 --> 00:44:25.480
down. I think when we started
off the year, I think me and

697
00:44:25.519 --> 00:44:29.480
you both agreed. I think the
numbers were going to continue to go up.

698
00:44:29.519 --> 00:44:34.800
I mean as more and more areas
open up Detroit went legal, the

699
00:44:34.840 --> 00:44:37.960
more zones we get, the more
money that will come. It's just like

700
00:44:37.960 --> 00:44:40.599
a probability thing. All the events, all the festivals that cannabis is at.

701
00:44:40.639 --> 00:44:45.880
Now all those sales count towards the
dollars summer and Smokeout is now over.

702
00:44:45.280 --> 00:44:49.719
But that was over the weekend in
Republic up ye yep, elevated and

703
00:44:49.719 --> 00:44:52.440
stuff and shout out to know.
He was actually our guest last week's check

704
00:44:52.480 --> 00:44:53.639
it out. Check that out.
They actually like groove, he said.

705
00:44:53.639 --> 00:44:58.440
They have a cannabis music festival up
in the up and uh, hopefully they

706
00:44:58.519 --> 00:45:00.400
do it next year for the thirty
year because I would like to make our

707
00:45:00.400 --> 00:45:05.639
way out there. And now it
all. Yeah, it was just literally

708
00:45:05.679 --> 00:45:09.880
Samley's birthday, you know, and
had things going on and then yeah,

709
00:45:10.119 --> 00:45:14.679
so it just last minute. Yeah
it didn't work out, but sounding amazing

710
00:45:14.760 --> 00:45:16.920
and I it's like right on my
alley. I'm missing Father of Funk's US

711
00:45:17.000 --> 00:45:22.119
debut, So it is a bummer, that's for sure. Yeah, can

712
00:45:22.239 --> 00:45:30.239
come. Nothing's wrong with music and
cannabis. They just a dad wide play.

713
00:45:30.679 --> 00:45:32.480
Well, well let's get into our
last article here. Groovy. It's

714
00:45:32.480 --> 00:45:36.840
just on Michigan. And I like
this article because it's just the title of

715
00:45:36.880 --> 00:45:39.840
it. It's from Cannabis Business Time
Pace. Uh yeah, Michigan's now on

716
00:45:39.920 --> 00:45:45.079
pace to become a three billion dollars
cannabis market in twenty twenty three. Remember

717
00:45:45.119 --> 00:45:47.719
when we hit a billion, like
and people are like, oh, no,

718
00:45:47.719 --> 00:45:50.800
the industry is not going to go
higher than a billion, and we

719
00:45:50.840 --> 00:45:53.480
hit two billions to hit three billions. I think the reason why we heard

720
00:45:53.480 --> 00:45:58.000
that so much is because we talked
to industry professionals and they're seeing the struggles

721
00:45:58.440 --> 00:46:01.199
because the big picture doesn't come from
each you come from consumer aspect. Though

722
00:46:01.320 --> 00:46:06.079
it's a little mix because we were
industry related, but at the same time,

723
00:46:06.119 --> 00:46:08.400
we started as consumers and I know
everyone did in the market too,

724
00:46:08.719 --> 00:46:10.840
but I think eventually, you know, you work in the market and we

725
00:46:12.039 --> 00:46:15.039
you know, I'm sure bud tenders
are still connected to that level, but

726
00:46:15.119 --> 00:46:16.280
like once you get higher up,
you know, like you're looking at it

727
00:46:16.400 --> 00:46:19.679
is like this is a product you're
making money off of, right, So

728
00:46:19.719 --> 00:46:22.320
it's a business first. And there's
a lot of overhead too with running a

729
00:46:22.320 --> 00:46:28.079
cannabis and it's always different. It
varies so much. You have one bad

730
00:46:28.119 --> 00:46:30.920
crop. Your fuck, how many
different size grows have we seen in how

731
00:46:30.920 --> 00:46:34.280
many different well? And my big
thing is sometimes they're the same size grow,

732
00:46:34.360 --> 00:46:36.880
but they're done differently, you know, and that's where it's like what

733
00:46:37.199 --> 00:46:40.800
and from how they're built to what
space summer stacks. I have big rooms

734
00:46:40.800 --> 00:46:46.719
and our warehouses lights most or many
rooms, how they water, how they

735
00:46:46.760 --> 00:46:52.079
trend, like every one is completely
different. You think they'd be less variety,

736
00:46:52.159 --> 00:46:55.079
but you know what, you really
would, because like there's a certain

737
00:46:55.079 --> 00:46:58.880
process but everyone's got their own unique
twist on it which made them get to

738
00:46:58.880 --> 00:47:00.880
where they're at. Like it's not
we're going to do it, so we

739
00:47:00.920 --> 00:47:02.440
do. I mean I got my
own stuff, so like it's just how

740
00:47:02.440 --> 00:47:06.119
it works over the years. It
doesn't want to it works for most people.

741
00:47:06.719 --> 00:47:12.079
But that's true. It took me
a minute to prona make so anyways

742
00:47:12.119 --> 00:47:15.840
and sneak attack. But no,
this is just great to see Michigan becoming

743
00:47:15.840 --> 00:47:20.280
a three billion dollar market. I'm
curious where we top out at. I

744
00:47:20.320 --> 00:47:22.679
don't see it happening next year.
I cause, honestly, with Detroit now

745
00:47:22.840 --> 00:47:28.840
recreational and we're gonna be opening up
more retail shops and plus you're opening up

746
00:47:28.960 --> 00:47:31.719
more consumption lounges throughout the state.
Like all that's like some money towards the

747
00:47:31.719 --> 00:47:36.840
state. I just I just I
see the numbers continuing to grow. Michigan.

748
00:47:36.840 --> 00:47:38.199
CANDUs is gonna be the number one
crop in Michigan. Like, if

749
00:47:38.199 --> 00:47:47.239
it's not already, it's already outpaces
alcohol. It's it's a booming market for

750
00:47:47.280 --> 00:47:50.480
sales. You just gotta if you're
in, if you have a good brand,

751
00:47:50.480 --> 00:47:52.760
you're able to stick around. There's
a lot of brands, a lot

752
00:47:52.800 --> 00:47:57.559
of growers, a lot of process
Yeah, because you got to find your

753
00:47:57.559 --> 00:48:00.760
way to first, it's all about
branding Aaron. First, it's all just

754
00:48:00.800 --> 00:48:02.480
being there, just having the weed
on the market, because you're making money

755
00:48:02.519 --> 00:48:06.840
just based off people being there and
wanting weed legally, right. And then

756
00:48:06.880 --> 00:48:09.280
you start making money because brand recognition
from marketing or whatever. People go,

757
00:48:09.320 --> 00:48:12.360
oh, these are the brands I
see, So these are the brands I

758
00:48:12.360 --> 00:48:15.559
should try. A lot of them
get duped because it's just marketing. And

759
00:48:15.599 --> 00:48:17.679
eventually what it becomes is like what
is the brand? And if it's not

760
00:48:17.719 --> 00:48:22.519
the brand recognition, by that point
it's a mix of quality stuff with market

761
00:48:22.599 --> 00:48:25.880
quality. So because it eventually it's
just the quality. Yeah, the cycle

762
00:48:25.920 --> 00:48:29.559
you go through as for any products
you know, or if you don't care

763
00:48:29.559 --> 00:48:30.599
for quality, you just gonna end
up getting what you want no, but

764
00:48:30.599 --> 00:48:34.199
I mean any product, right,
like even if it's like a new I

765
00:48:34.199 --> 00:48:37.400
don't know what was new for a
little bit, like hammocks a bad example,

766
00:48:37.679 --> 00:48:42.760
the tent hammock thing, right,
Like they've been seeing the hammocks,

767
00:48:42.920 --> 00:48:45.760
right, but they're like flap bad
tents, so they're really but right now

768
00:48:45.840 --> 00:48:47.239
they're really expensive. Right, but
now you're seeing now you're seeing the cheaper

769
00:48:47.239 --> 00:48:51.280
ones come out, so you're seeing
that super competitive. But because the quality

770
00:48:51.280 --> 00:48:53.039
doesn't matter, So it's like now
I just feel like it kind of balances

771
00:48:53.079 --> 00:48:55.800
out right, Like there's always like
the cycle to it, like it's just

772
00:48:55.840 --> 00:48:59.119
the first one to do it.
You make a lot of the money because

773
00:48:59.159 --> 00:49:01.079
you made it. Usually it's quality
because you were the first one. Then

774
00:49:01.119 --> 00:49:05.000
there's all the copycats, right,
and then there's quality drops, and then

775
00:49:05.000 --> 00:49:07.119
it balances back out because people start
separating, Oh I want the cheap shit

776
00:49:07.239 --> 00:49:10.519
or the expensive shit, and all
those middle ones just kind of just speer.

777
00:49:12.400 --> 00:49:15.239
I think that's kind of just the
cycle of consumerism sometimes makes sense.

778
00:49:16.639 --> 00:49:22.039
I mean it's good. I mean
like a like a macro perspective on it

779
00:49:22.079 --> 00:49:28.000
all because it tends beat check it
out, unique product, unique product,

780
00:49:28.159 --> 00:49:31.880
sick. You know, unique product
gets copied, people don't like the product

781
00:49:31.880 --> 00:49:35.719
as much because sometimes there's cheap versions. Right then it kind of balanced the

782
00:49:35.719 --> 00:49:42.440
middle because you gotta get the right
ones, like yeah cycle anyways, Yeah,

783
00:49:42.440 --> 00:49:45.159
so that was good man, Yeah, I know that was. This

784
00:49:45.199 --> 00:49:47.480
has been a fun episode. It's
a lot of pretty good news within the

785
