Speaker 1: Yeah, what's going on everybody? Welcome to a new episode
Speaker 1: of My Canic Case.
Speaker 2: I'm Cannon Dave, I'm groovy.
Speaker 1: On today's episode, we're live in Man of Stee for
Speaker 1: Resident Rivals.
Speaker 3: We got Ross Huna here.
Speaker 1: Tell us all what's going on here at res Rivals.
Speaker 4: Here We've got oh yeah, sorry, guys, Mike's way far away.
Speaker 4: So yeah, we're at resin Rivals here today, guys, is
Speaker 4: the first year this is an event put created and
Speaker 4: founded by Smoky the Bear in my Eye. He brought
Speaker 4: me along on the journey as one of the main.
Speaker 5: Sponsors to do Yeah. Oh, he's the man.
Speaker 4: He's the man, but yeah, brought me on to kind
Speaker 4: of do some coordinating, get the kind of help things
Speaker 4: stay in order. We do a lot of the national
Speaker 4: hash competitions around the country together and travel together, so
Speaker 4: when you needed help, I was right there to kind
Speaker 4: of do it. So we've been awesome for the past
Speaker 4: year and a half two years, just kind of chugging along.
Speaker 5: Really took it seriously last year.
Speaker 4: So what we got going on here today is we
Speaker 4: got thirty six of the best hash makers in the country.
Speaker 5: So all over.
Speaker 6: Here, if you look straight ahead on the second charready
Speaker 6: or right. Yeah, we got all the competitors right here.
Speaker 4: Some of the best hashmakers in that country, dude, so
Speaker 4: and like you.
Speaker 3: Got phenomenally got them all here in one roof.
Speaker 4: You know, we had a few not make it today,
Speaker 4: and that's unfortunate. One family had COVID, you know, they
Speaker 4: got sick, you know, stay at home, dressed up. There's
Speaker 4: always next year. There's other comps. Some people just didn't
Speaker 4: reach out. We don't know if they're you know, just
Speaker 4: something going on personally. Maybe they were scared, could be anything,
Speaker 4: you know, not going to be biased. You know, everyone's
Speaker 4: got the reason. So if they didn't make it, loss
Speaker 4: on them. This is a great event today.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's two rooms.
Speaker 6: Like look, I mean you look on your right, there's
Speaker 6: a whole another room over there where that's where people
Speaker 6: could smoke.
Speaker 2: And there's more vendors, glass vendors and.
Speaker 3: All sorts of stuff you can dab everywhere.
Speaker 4: So basically what we got going on, we got thirty
Speaker 4: of the best hashmakers in the country from five different regions.
Speaker 4: We got the East Coast, we got the West Coast,
Speaker 4: mid Mountain, Midwest, and then southern. So we picked five
Speaker 4: to six hashmakers from each one of these regions. They
Speaker 4: had to have won two different nationally recognized awards or
Speaker 4: awards in their area that are recognizable enough in order
Speaker 4: to be invited. But at the same time, we have
Speaker 4: six more makers who came out in marched to our
Speaker 4: qualifier and beat out fifty two different makers from around
Speaker 4: the country.
Speaker 5: To then compete with these guys, because not.
Speaker 4: Everybody gets that opportunity to actually, you know, make it
Speaker 4: to these competitions or they're.
Speaker 6: New, right, I mean for us, like you know, we know,
Speaker 6: you know the Fresh Coast, right that's there's a Michigan
Speaker 6: homies but you know, shout out to bag Tator, shouts
Speaker 6: Cloris Flora. Yeah, there's tons of good fire over there.
Speaker 6: But why don't know half these brands. So when you're
Speaker 6: bringing these brands and create a competition like this, you're
Speaker 6: seeing what's around the nation. And obviously that's obviously for
Speaker 6: a national country, but it's so cool to see that
Speaker 6: because you know, we get so stuck and only seeing
Speaker 6: the Michigan brain.
Speaker 2: So you're bringing a whole slice of the of the
Speaker 2: riz and world here.
Speaker 4: You know, we really want people to first first foremost
Speaker 4: see what we have here. But at the second time,
Speaker 4: see what Michigan's got like just as a state, not
Speaker 4: many people come here, so show them how beautiful this
Speaker 4: place is. But at the same time, like traveling around
Speaker 4: our country, there are amazing fucking hashmakers. It's just like,
Speaker 4: just like I've always talked about, it's just like chefs
Speaker 4: man new chefs every day, new chefs learning things, coming
Speaker 4: up with new techniques from different people they've learned, sourcing
Speaker 4: their ingredients from different parts of the country, how they
Speaker 4: do it, how they grow it, where they got it.
Speaker 4: So you know, it's just it's a pleasant opportunity. So
Speaker 4: we got this first table if you guys can see
Speaker 4: in the background here all of these are going to
Speaker 4: be all thirty three hash makers from around the country
Speaker 4: competing for.
Speaker 5: First place today.
Speaker 4: Oh wow, so we got multiple different spots though it's
Speaker 4: not just hash makers picking the best hash because we.
Speaker 2: I mean, look at all those judges though too.
Speaker 6: And I really respect that there's no flower smoking in here,
Speaker 6: so it doesn't matter the Jetty series and you also
Speaker 6: to be talked about this prior, but no, e rigs, no,
Speaker 6: you're taking it too.
Speaker 2: It's all like, is that make it more of an
Speaker 2: even playing field.
Speaker 4: More so, we just we just feel that you don't
Speaker 4: get the best representation from the e rig And you know,
Speaker 4: for how much time that these guys are putting their
Speaker 4: effort into this, why try to speed it up, you know,
Speaker 4: why not give it the best representation. Possibly you're gonna
Speaker 4: spend one hundred and fifty dollars on a bottle of line.
Speaker 4: I want to know how to drink that thing. It's seperately,
Speaker 4: you know. So it's like that's kind of our thing. Like, so, yeah,
Speaker 4: you got nothing against them, love transportation, low of portability,
Speaker 4: but in general, I want to do the respect to
Speaker 4: the hash. And that's kind of our mission here is
Speaker 4: to do the respect to the hash and the respect
Speaker 4: of the makers who made it here. So and that's
Speaker 4: the big reason that we have the hash makers judge
Speaker 4: the other hash makers. So they sit down at one table,
Speaker 4: they're gonna bring one large jar of ten grams, and
Speaker 4: then they're gonna pass this jar along the table, and
Speaker 4: then we anonymously mix these things up so that they
Speaker 4: can't know. We put people aside from their friends, so
Speaker 4: they can't sit next to each other and try you
Speaker 4: know that.
Speaker 5: Number seven, good bro number seventh.
Speaker 4: Bit so we even we even hop on table talking,
Speaker 4: we're checking scores at them to see if anybody's judging
Speaker 4: themselves higher than other ones.
Speaker 5: And then we're you know, not inviting next year if
Speaker 5: they don't have a good reason for that.
Speaker 3: Oh wow. So like we're trying to get things out, Well,
Speaker 3: what do you judge it on?
Speaker 2: What are they how is the judging being done?
Speaker 6: So our categories, So that's not every judge get the jar.
Speaker 6: You're just passing a shared jar, right.
Speaker 4: Have one big jar gets passed around, you pull one
Speaker 4: tab from that. We want to see the most flavorful,
Speaker 4: complex uh representation of that. And also we don't want
Speaker 4: to have to take too much from these makers. We're
Speaker 4: not trying to.
Speaker 5: Bankrupt these guys. We just need enough to get around
Speaker 5: the tape.
Speaker 6: You know what's really cool, But that's really fair because
Speaker 6: you hear like even when we talk to hashmakers, they
Speaker 6: got to donate a whole ounce, and it's like, you know,
Speaker 6: and if you don't win, you don't get anything. It's
Speaker 6: like damn that, Like it's a lot of bagfuiers and
Speaker 6: it's like I get it, you.
Speaker 4: Know, yeah, now that money, you know, like and then
Speaker 4: there's events out there that like it's it becomes the.
Speaker 5: That's the problem.
Speaker 4: Like, you know, they get out there and then they're
Speaker 4: asked to bring you know, thirty grams twenty eight grams, right,
Speaker 4: and then they don't do good and now they could
Speaker 4: have made you know, two grand.
Speaker 5: On that not not traveled, not spent the trip.
Speaker 4: So like, and that's why we didn't charge any vendors
Speaker 4: to too. So we didn't charge a single vendor. I
Speaker 4: believe there was one or two who paid in the
Speaker 4: early beginning and we did some special things for them,
Speaker 4: but no, So like we majority of the vendors here
Speaker 4: today are you know, art, art vendors as you guys
Speaker 4: see around. We got a bunch of glass vendors, clothing vendors, crochet.
Speaker 5: We even have guys who came in from Florida Bonzai trees.
Speaker 4: He's selling Bonzai trees here today.
Speaker 2: Shout out.
Speaker 4: That's his whole life and they're freaking amazing. We got
Speaker 4: we got t and Turp Farmer who's who's competing today.
Speaker 4: His wife does crochet, so she's out here, she's got
Speaker 4: it's it's amazing. Then we have some of our large sponsors,
Speaker 4: like hymen.
Speaker 5: They came out. They're just rolling donuts.
Speaker 4: And we haven't got you know, let me let me
Speaker 4: when I get out of here, guys, I'll walk over there.
Speaker 4: I'll get you guys some donuts. I'll bring them back
Speaker 4: so you don't have to stop the podcast. I'll see
Speaker 4: smoking come over and then maybe.
Speaker 6: You want to say anyway, were now and obviously we're
Speaker 6: gonna be dabbing on some today.
Speaker 2: I want to talk about anything new drops or anything, man.
Speaker 4: And you guys got it. So we got this uh
Speaker 4: Hans Solo Burger from Black Label. We just did a
Speaker 4: pickle collab with Valo Glass, so we so all of
Speaker 4: our jars in this match have a pickled glass pickled
Speaker 4: pillar inside. So that's for the turp slurper. I keep
Speaker 4: pulling this away from my mouth. Apologies guys, so but
Speaker 4: but so, there's gonna be a pickle inside. There is
Speaker 4: twenty Illuminati glow pickles inside. So if you find one
Speaker 4: of those, you can go back to the story you
Speaker 4: get it from, and then they'll grant you with a
Speaker 4: free jar who had stash Again. You cannot get the
Speaker 4: same Han Solo burger again, that is excluded from the deal.
Speaker 5: But we're just trying to do fun things.
Speaker 4: So even vallos in house today's right next to our
Speaker 4: little sponsor booth. We got a game lounge over here.
Speaker 4: No products today, we're kind of just focusing on you know,
Speaker 4: other brands. You know, everyone knows us here. You know,
Speaker 4: I don't need the exposure.
Speaker 5: We just want to.
Speaker 3: Find everyone else up. I love it man community building, right,
Speaker 3: So that's why we.
Speaker 5: Don't compete either.
Speaker 4: So but it's uh but yeah, So other than the hashmakers,
Speaker 4: then we also sold twenty VIP opportunities. So these opportunities,
Speaker 4: twenty people are giving the opportunity to purchase a ticket
Speaker 4: that first gets them a torol Terp slipper.
Speaker 5: So Toro donated twenty turp slippers, all VIP nice.
Speaker 4: Along with that, they get a bunch of donations from
Speaker 4: all the vendors so hash edibles, t shirts, clothing, stickers.
Speaker 5: Seats, cookies, and then we give them a bunch of
Speaker 5: stuff as dab Max's cool.
Speaker 2: So like we want to make this might I might
Speaker 2: be able Like hey guys, I'm a VIP.
Speaker 4: Basically you with with how much the VIP tickets were
Speaker 4: you did you almost double up on your money just
Speaker 4: from that vip bag.
Speaker 2: That's awesome, man, that's awesome.
Speaker 5: To seventy bro. Yeah, I mean that's half your ticket
Speaker 5: right there.
Speaker 4: So like and then then you're getting to try all
Speaker 4: the best hash in the country. You get to be
Speaker 4: a part of this and put your opinion on it.
Speaker 4: You get to be it's a journey.
Speaker 6: So like, well, and trying national wide hash, like I
Speaker 6: was saying, like I would be so cool because I
Speaker 6: haven't tried I don't know eighty percent of these brands.
Speaker 4: Like I've tried every single one of these guys over
Speaker 4: the past year and a half.
Speaker 5: All these guys freaking kill it.
Speaker 4: Everyone from Soccer Dad from Hawaii all the way down
Speaker 4: to Hunter at Hidden Forest, and you have five from
Speaker 4: each region.
Speaker 2: So that's really cool. You broke five to six. We
Speaker 2: had the last event we did, so.

Speaker 2: I mean that was the lasts Rivals event and we
Speaker 2: didn't get to talk about that.
Speaker 6: But I gave someone the high maneuver and the solid
Speaker 6: honey banana, solid honey bana. Red Rock had a lot
Speaker 6: of sound. I tried their sour something sour that was solid.
Speaker 4: So Red Rock has this like black cherry something you know,
Speaker 4: it tastes good. It was clean, but holy funk, I
Speaker 4: haven't got high from a DAP like that.
Speaker 6: A longin I was sweating, dude, and I haven't took
Speaker 6: I haven't had like the hot sweats and respects.
Speaker 5: Like I wanted to confirm it.
Speaker 4: So like I talk to uh Curtis from a black
Speaker 4: label and he was like, I just tried the same
Speaker 4: fucking thing, and I've been sitting in this chair for
Speaker 4: twenty five minutes.
Speaker 5: I'm like, okay, cool, cool, I need to try.
Speaker 4: So, I mean like we're trying to have a good
Speaker 4: time that we're really trying to you.
Speaker 5: Know, the battle of the brands things going on to kind.
Speaker 2: Of get people, offerative friends press.
Speaker 4: We don't have much cannabis vending here. We tried, like Smokey,
Speaker 4: try to keep it very limited. So like the battle
Speaker 4: of brand is kind of giving away. There's there's trading
Speaker 4: of Hash going on. There's you know, gifting of hash
Speaker 4: going on.
Speaker 3: Right, people are.
Speaker 5: Trading different hash for other Hash, people trading clothes for.
Speaker 4: Hash Hetty Patti, and like, you know, we we want
Speaker 4: we want the experience some more so come from the
Speaker 4: people you're meeting and the things you're trying instead of
Speaker 4: the things you're buying.
Speaker 5: You know, right, like not every event needs to be
Speaker 5: a purchasing sale. It needs to be uh, it needs
Speaker 5: to be something that brings people together.
Speaker 6: That feels about community here, you know, and I appreciate
Speaker 6: like this, and that's what I really, you know, want
Speaker 6: to talk about. Because some competitions they're in and out
Speaker 6: or they're limited and they're just you know, they're kind
Speaker 6: of wants some money grabs, but they're just like trophy
Speaker 6: grap I got.
Speaker 4: It, And like I'm gonna call I'm gonna say this
Speaker 4: to everybody in the state right now, us any other state, Like.
Speaker 5: We're sick of it, dude, We're sick of it.
Speaker 6: Sick.
Speaker 5: We're sick of it, man.
Speaker 4: Like we don't want to give one hundred and fifty
Speaker 4: grands to an event and not get any money in return.
Speaker 4: We're like, what I'm sick of is us entering and
Speaker 4: we're the ones who make the event happen, but you
Speaker 4: make money off us, so second sponsors all our whole event.
Speaker 4: We aren't making a single dollar off this. We're in
Speaker 4: a hole honestly because we got only the money from
Speaker 4: our sponsors.
Speaker 5: But this time we didn't charge any single vendor in
Speaker 5: this house.
Speaker 4: Today we raised money from the qualifier at the same
Speaker 4: time to put this on. And then anything that's going
Speaker 4: back in is literally to hopefully make this thing even
Speaker 4: bigger next year.
Speaker 5: But I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 2: His venue has all the possibilities to all.
Speaker 3: The possibilities so huge.
Speaker 4: We're hoping that we can we can do something not
Speaker 4: only this, but help the city of Manisty out. I
Speaker 4: want to make this thing larger, like smoke on the water.
Speaker 4: I want to bring the festival get thousands of people here.
Speaker 5: I want to get like you.
Speaker 4: Know, and I want to get every crowd. So I
Speaker 4: want to get ten new on one stage. I want
Speaker 4: to get fucking young blood on one stage.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that we want to get groovy and fucking yeah.
Speaker 4: We got to figure out how to get how to
Speaker 4: get like multiple crowds of people multiple days.
Speaker 5: If you don't have to do this all one day,
Speaker 5: you know, pringtend dude. You know, now you bring one
Speaker 5: crowd one day. We do the downtown. We get the
Speaker 5: ideas there. We want to push it, we want to
Speaker 5: make it more fun, we want more people.
Speaker 6: We look at you're creating the community. You're bringing the
Speaker 6: community here in this town.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
Speaker 3: You bring it together and and you know it's and.
Speaker 6: What I love about this is you see people from
Speaker 6: both sides, the caregiver, the metric market showing love, just
Speaker 6: talking and appreciating hash not who's the bet blah blah blah.
Speaker 6: You know, it's not like a pissing contest. There's not
Speaker 6: like this. This is better caregivers better. It's just what
Speaker 6: do you got to show it?
Speaker 4: If you're not here today, you're not a part of
Speaker 4: the community. And that's That's what I'm gonna say. And
Speaker 4: you know, there's reasons, there's reasons, and I'm sure there's
Speaker 4: good reasons that some people could not make it here today.
Speaker 4: But you know what I'm telling you right now, if
Speaker 4: you're a part of this community in Michigan, this is
Speaker 4: probably one of the I would say, howdiest events of
Speaker 4: the year a couple of years for hash in general.
Speaker 5: And next year is going to be even larger.
Speaker 4: So I'm gonna tell everyone right now, don't miss the opportunity.
Speaker 4: Next year is gonna be even bigger. We're making this larger.
Speaker 4: We're trying to make this a ethically ethical, journey, full
Speaker 4: experienced event. We don't want this to be a money grab.
Speaker 4: We don't want to make money off this thing we have.
Speaker 4: We want to be with our friends, get people together
Speaker 4: and find success to the people who's to get success
Speaker 4: through this.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I love that.

Speaker 3: I would it's not you peep, but to me, it's
Speaker 3: northern Michigan.

Speaker 1: people from all over to a specific area to check
Speaker 1: out and visit a town, see what it's all about.
Speaker 1: And there's no better place than Michigan in the summer.
Speaker 1: So honestly, we're right right of the water too. It'd
