Summer's not with us. 50 00:02:24.759 --> 00:02:28.240 We're doing a lot of interviews. Last week we release 51 00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:33.280 Jess Jackson's a lot of social equity and stuff. She's 52 00:02:33.319 --> 00:02:36.360 doing some great things out Minnesota summer journals. Now when 53 00:02:36.360 --> 00:02:38.520 someone will be on the next one with cal Axioms, 54 00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:40.719 but this one, like David was jumping into it, we're 55 00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:43.520 just doing news articles because there's actually surprisingly a lot 56 00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:46.240 going on, and lately I feel like we haven't been 57 00:02:46.240 --> 00:02:47.840 doing a lot because there wasn't a lot of new 58 00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:50.360 things popping off. But lately it's just been the past 59 00:02:50.439 --> 00:02:51.800 couple of weeks. So we're like, wow, we need to 60 00:02:51.800 --> 00:02:53.759 catch up and doing news one. So here we are. 61 00:02:53.800 --> 00:02:56.120 There's a lot of stuff going on from Ohio, a 62 00:02:56.159 --> 00:02:58.960 lot of stuff changing here in Michigan. But it's kind 63 00:02:58.960 --> 00:03:00.960 of a full circle thing is the same thing that's 64 00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:03.120 going on down Ohio kind of similar to what's going 65 00:03:03.159 --> 00:03:06.319 on up here. So let's talk about all this uh facts. 66 00:03:06.360 --> 00:03:10.120 It sounds like Ohio might be increasing there, yeah, so 67 00:03:10.639 --> 00:03:12.800 decreasing some other things. So I always kind of get 68 00:03:12.840 --> 00:03:13.919 some messed up things going on. 69 00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:16.280 These are all with lawmakers want nothing can get sent 70 00:03:16.319 --> 00:03:18.800 stoned until they vote and get it through, you know. Obviously, 71 00:03:18.840 --> 00:03:22.159 because in Ohio twenty twenty three they overwhelmed the past 72 00:03:22.199 --> 00:03:24.840 Issue two, which Issue too was for any adult twenty 73 00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:27.680 one years and older, you're able to can ingest, smoke 74 00:03:27.719 --> 00:03:29.800 and vavee cannabis. You can grow up to six plants 75 00:03:29.800 --> 00:03:32.240 without the twelve plants per household. So that was the 76 00:03:32.280 --> 00:03:34.919 bill they passed in twenty twenty three. And it's only 77 00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:37.120 a month and a half into twenty twenty five and 78 00:03:37.240 --> 00:03:39.719 lawmakers already like, and we need to. 79 00:03:39.719 --> 00:03:42.639 Change that, and it's already. The thing is, it's already 80 00:03:42.680 --> 00:03:45.639 a current price is double what Michigan is, so obviously 81 00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:48.400 Michigan has like a really low price compared to anyone 82 00:03:48.479 --> 00:03:55.479 right now. But because it's saturated. Yeah, but that's crazy 83 00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:59.039 to me because like whenever people hike up these increases 84 00:03:59.039 --> 00:04:02.280 in text hike up these increases and everything. It's like 85 00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:05.159 you just pushing people to go to a lisit. You know, 86 00:04:05.280 --> 00:04:07.560 a lot of people aren't gonna start buying illegal gasoline 87 00:04:07.560 --> 00:04:10.240 if you raise gasoline prices. But like the thing about 88 00:04:10.240 --> 00:04:13.479 cannabis is it started as an illegal thing, so you're 89 00:04:13.520 --> 00:04:15.800 just going back to what people knew, You're not. 90 00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:18.000 It'd be hard to get illegal gas unless you knew somebody. 91 00:04:20.600 --> 00:04:22.480 The same thing with weed back, how'd you get weed 92 00:04:22.519 --> 00:04:24.920 some you knew someone. You gotta have a plug, right, 93 00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:26.040 it's the same idea, man. 94 00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:26.279 Right. 95 00:04:26.560 --> 00:04:28.120 My whole point is that it's like you're just going 96 00:04:28.199 --> 00:04:30.800 to push people to come back over here to Michigan, like, 97 00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:32.800 or you're going to push people to go somewhere else. 98 00:04:32.879 --> 00:04:34.560 Yeah, they're gonna go. They're gonna go somewhere to get 99 00:04:34.560 --> 00:04:35.120 their cannabis. 100 00:04:35.399 --> 00:04:38.240 And then when you're talking about increasing on on on 101 00:04:38.360 --> 00:04:40.360 the taxes and stuff, but then you're also talking about 102 00:04:40.360 --> 00:04:41.959 decreasing plant count. 103 00:04:42.680 --> 00:04:44.680 Well, plant counts what they want, what they want to 104 00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:47.959 So yeah, they want to decrease for this recreational It's 105 00:04:47.959 --> 00:04:49.319 not for like a license, but this is for anyone 106 00:04:49.319 --> 00:04:51.680 that's going out home. They want to decrease your plant 107 00:04:51.720 --> 00:04:54.240 count from twelve to six, so your maxib six, which 108 00:04:54.240 --> 00:04:56.279 I think is a little ridiculous because you voted twelve 109 00:04:56.319 --> 00:05:00.759 in so getting that pass the if the people, the lawmakers, 110 00:05:01.040 --> 00:05:02.600 a lot of lawmakers don't understand a lot of things 111 00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:04.240 within cannabis, and you can see that when they're doing 112 00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:07.160 stuff because they also want to cap milligrams at one hundred, 113 00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:10.079 million edibles at one hundred milligrams, which is funny because 114 00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:11.959 Michigan we did start at one hundred and then we 115 00:05:12.040 --> 00:05:14.040 opened it up to two hundred. So like seeing them 116 00:05:14.079 --> 00:05:15.680 go want to cap it at a hundred, It's like, 117 00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:18.480 why would you be doing this when you could look 118 00:05:18.519 --> 00:05:20.839 at the state above you, your big brother, and say, 119 00:05:20.879 --> 00:05:21.839 oh hey, look at these guys. 120 00:05:21.839 --> 00:05:23.639 Look at what they're doing, like people on Ohio wouldn't 121 00:05:23.639 --> 00:05:25.000 want to call us that. But then no, that's why 122 00:05:25.000 --> 00:05:30.360 I said it. No, Yeah, I said fuck Ohio. I mean, whoa, 123 00:05:30.920 --> 00:05:31.680 you really feel man. 124 00:05:33.040 --> 00:05:36.160 But then they also want to decrease your extracts, so 125 00:05:36.160 --> 00:05:37.879 you're kind of your concentra extracts. So that'd be like 126 00:05:38.120 --> 00:05:40.839 your vapes, that would be your rosin, that'd be your crumble, 127 00:05:40.879 --> 00:05:43.160 that'd be your shatter, you're all your live resident all 128 00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:45.199 that crap from down from ninety percent to a max 129 00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:48.839 of seventy percent, which I think is crazy because some 130 00:05:48.879 --> 00:05:51.680 people do need the higher dose of concentrates and a 131 00:05:51.680 --> 00:05:53.959 lot of great rosin I see test that seventy six percent, 132 00:05:54.000 --> 00:05:55.920 So you're gonna get rid of a lot of good product. 133 00:05:56.639 --> 00:05:58.839 Then also, the bill would raise the cost. Right now, 134 00:05:58.839 --> 00:06:00.720 there's a ten percent tax at the point of sale. 135 00:06:00.879 --> 00:06:04.480 The GOP wants it at fifteen, which isn't too much 136 00:06:04.480 --> 00:06:06.360 of a hike. I mean we're at sixteen total, right, 137 00:06:06.439 --> 00:06:09.560 But then their governor wants increased at the twenty. He's like, no, no, no, no, 138 00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:13.079 I want increase to the twenty. And it's like my 139 00:06:13.160 --> 00:06:16.120 mind goes okay, okay. So all these people they see 140 00:06:16.120 --> 00:06:17.920 what cannabis is doing right groovy, They see they can 141 00:06:17.920 --> 00:06:19.360 bring in money and all this, and then they're like, hey, 142 00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:20.920 let's text the hell out of it. But it's like, 143 00:06:21.040 --> 00:06:23.040 once you do that, like you stated a couple minutes ago, 144 00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:26.360 you're going to push people away. And here's the thing, Ohio, 145 00:06:26.519 --> 00:06:29.800 such a new market, why would you try to stripe it? 146 00:06:29.839 --> 00:06:31.560 Like right now you say cost your double what a 147 00:06:31.560 --> 00:06:32.120 Michigan is right. 148 00:06:32.199 --> 00:06:37.439 That's what it said in the article to Ohio Capital Journal. 149 00:06:37.519 --> 00:06:39.759 Which is interesting because I expected it to be a 150 00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:41.240 little bit more because I didn't think they had as 151 00:06:41.240 --> 00:06:43.839 many businesses operational, you know, so I wouldn't even expect it. 152 00:06:43.879 --> 00:06:45.800 I could expect it to be three times more. But 153 00:06:45.839 --> 00:06:49.079 once you do this, you're going to raise the prices, 154 00:06:49.120 --> 00:06:51.600 which is going to cost more, and people might be 155 00:06:51.639 --> 00:06:54.759 going to Michigan, they might be going back to the 156 00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:57.399 black market. I overall think and this is gonna be 157 00:06:57.439 --> 00:06:58.600 a trend through. The whole thing is I just think 158 00:06:58.680 --> 00:07:01.519 lawmakers need to be educated on this, because the whole 159 00:07:01.560 --> 00:07:04.480 reason to legalize cannabis was to get to get out 160 00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:06.360 of the black market, Like that was the whole thing. 161 00:07:06.439 --> 00:07:08.240 You're able to make money, the states are able to 162 00:07:08.279 --> 00:07:10.759 make money, the city's able to make money, and it 163 00:07:10.839 --> 00:07:13.839 was to get stop stop getting people throwing people away 164 00:07:13.879 --> 00:07:16.959 for jail for a gram or two or whatever. Because 165 00:07:16.959 --> 00:07:18.639 we have twenty five states that are legal, and we 166 00:07:18.680 --> 00:07:21.240 have over thirty states that are medicinally legal, so obviously 167 00:07:21.279 --> 00:07:25.000 we see some type of value here. But when you're 168 00:07:25.040 --> 00:07:28.040 trying to restrict an industry that's still in its like 169 00:07:28.160 --> 00:07:32.000 baby infancy stage, like you're just putting clamps on it 170 00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:34.160 and you're not letting it grow. Like this is Ohio. 171 00:07:34.199 --> 00:07:35.639 I don't know what you're doing, but this could be 172 00:07:35.680 --> 00:07:37.560 pretty big for your state. And I hate to say 173 00:07:37.600 --> 00:07:39.519 that because we're in Michigan. We get tons of traffic 174 00:07:39.519 --> 00:07:42.480 and sales up Michigan allegedly, right doesn't. 175 00:07:42.199 --> 00:07:43.600 Matter, No one's going to care over here. 176 00:07:44.439 --> 00:07:49.519 But it's like, when you do this, why why Because 177 00:07:49.560 --> 00:07:51.399 you see a little bit of revenue that you can make, 178 00:07:51.439 --> 00:07:53.600 don't you think long term if you don't do this, 179 00:07:53.720 --> 00:07:55.800 that you might be able to increase your revenue long 180 00:07:55.879 --> 00:07:58.519 term instead of getting a big chunk like in the 181 00:07:58.519 --> 00:08:00.800 first two three years when you increase taxes and stuff. 182 00:08:00.800 --> 00:08:02.519 You know what I'm saying, because after two three years, 183 00:08:02.560 --> 00:08:04.920 people will start going to the black market. They will 184 00:08:04.959 --> 00:08:07.319 go find a product elsewhere because if your product isn't 185 00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:08.800 get on the shelves, they're going to go somewhere else 186 00:08:08.800 --> 00:08:11.040 to get said product. Because cannabis people have been getting 187 00:08:11.519 --> 00:08:15.959 for years, like illegal or legal. So so this just 188 00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:18.800 hurts me that, like Ohio, a year and two months 189 00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:22.480 into recreational marijuana, you already have lawmakers and going insane, 190 00:08:22.519 --> 00:08:23.920 Like dude, least wait for it. 191 00:08:24.519 --> 00:08:26.639 Like why why else would you be rushing this state 192 00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:29.160 the state bill fifty six, you know, like why else? 193 00:08:29.279 --> 00:08:32.039 Like it's nothing to do with trying to get more money. 194 00:08:32.080 --> 00:08:37.159 And I just think, you know, we're seeing this trend 195 00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:40.320 of just trying to get people to give money get 196 00:08:40.360 --> 00:08:42.799 money from cannabis companies, because like you said, there's that 197 00:08:42.919 --> 00:08:46.440 lack of understanding that like this these you know, these 198 00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:50.320 cannabis companies, you know, they they deal with different things 199 00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:54.519 than other businesses. Safe, yeah, they don't say banking. They 200 00:08:54.559 --> 00:08:58.960 have so many like layers of discriminatory things that cannabis 201 00:08:59.000 --> 00:09:00.840 companies just have to deal with that I don't think 202 00:09:00.919 --> 00:09:06.200 the the regulators know or they don't or they're ignoring. 203 00:09:06.360 --> 00:09:06.600 You know. 204 00:09:06.879 --> 00:09:08.559 I wasn't out that you weren't alive, but. 205 00:09:10.559 --> 00:09:12.840 Like or the regulars like just they I don't like. 206 00:09:12.919 --> 00:09:15.200 The thing is the information so blatantly out there and 207 00:09:15.320 --> 00:09:17.600 articles and information and if you just went and asked 208 00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:21.279 your communities, that it's clear that these lawmakers are just ignoring. 209 00:09:21.320 --> 00:09:23.039 So this is the point where like, especially if in 210 00:09:23.120 --> 00:09:26.600 the Mycana Pros group, someone already did like a whole 211 00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:28.559 text thing that you could just copy and send to 212 00:09:28.600 --> 00:09:32.440 your register your representatives. But anyone who does Eurocal representative, 213 00:09:32.480 --> 00:09:33.879 this is the time to you know, reach out to 214 00:09:33.919 --> 00:09:36.759 them to have pushed persuade the votes for the for 215 00:09:36.840 --> 00:09:41.240 this because it doesn't make sense. You know, it just 216 00:09:41.240 --> 00:09:44.080 doesn't make sense similar what's going on in your Michigan. 217 00:09:44.120 --> 00:09:46.440 You know. That's why I just realized, Yeah, yeah, I 218 00:09:46.519 --> 00:09:48.720 just realized I crossed over there because of what's going 219 00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:50.639 on Ohio is so similar what's going on in Michigan. 220 00:09:50.840 --> 00:09:53.159 But someone in Michigan and my Canapros group did that. 221 00:09:53.240 --> 00:09:55.879 So if you're in Ohio, also read out your state representative. 222 00:09:56.159 --> 00:09:58.559 Sorry I kind of crossed over stories there because they're 223 00:09:58.600 --> 00:10:01.799 so similar. Yeah, you know what I mean. 224 00:10:01.919 --> 00:10:05.000 So, but get a little bit with the taxes. So 225 00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:05.679 stay tuned. 226 00:10:06.320 --> 00:10:08.840 Yeah, which I'm sure you already heard about it, but 227 00:10:08.960 --> 00:10:10.240 we're gonna dig into it a little bit. 228 00:10:10.279 --> 00:10:11.679 And if you didn't hear about it, we talked about 229 00:10:11.679 --> 00:10:13.679 in our Waking make that's every Saturday live nine am 230 00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:18.240 Eastern besides this Saturday tune in and yeah, it's all 231 00:10:18.279 --> 00:10:21.799 over everywhere. So again, Ohio, I hope you don't do this. 232 00:10:21.879 --> 00:10:24.919 I hope you don't start crippling your industry based off 233 00:10:24.919 --> 00:10:27.639 of lawmakers. So make sure you vote, vote, not vote, 234 00:10:27.759 --> 00:10:30.919 make sure you voice your voice your opinion in a 235 00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:32.879 nice way. Don't go anger at them, because that's just 236 00:10:32.879 --> 00:10:33.600 gonna make him pushing. 237 00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:35.320 It's just weird that people assume there's a lot of 238 00:10:35.320 --> 00:10:38.279 money because you see these articles by company, like by 239 00:10:38.480 --> 00:10:41.399 by some news articles saying that there's profits. But these 240 00:10:41.399 --> 00:10:43.919 are the same article companies that are talking about psychosis 241 00:10:43.919 --> 00:10:46.480 and talking shit about weed too, you know what I mean. 242 00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:49.120 So it's got to consider your media sources out here, 243 00:10:49.159 --> 00:10:49.360 you know. 244 00:10:50.559 --> 00:10:52.039 Yeah, I would agree with that, and I'm all rolling 245 00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:53.720 up some Calhoun cream by a kinchip. 246 00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:56.200 So this was an interesting article. This one's not any 247 00:10:56.320 --> 00:10:59.080 but base any location, but this one day brought to 248 00:10:59.080 --> 00:11:02.600 my attention about a former former Navy seal, the one 249 00:11:02.639 --> 00:11:04.679 who actually killed those I'm bin Laden, is starting his 250 00:11:04.720 --> 00:11:08.440 own cannabis company or marijuana company in this article says 251 00:11:08.519 --> 00:11:11.039 from nd TV World or something. 252 00:11:11.679 --> 00:11:13.919 Yeah, it's supposed to be giving some of the proceeds 253 00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:15.559 back to vets, which that was one reason. I think 254 00:11:15.559 --> 00:11:16.960 the one thing I liked. I was like, that's great 255 00:11:16.960 --> 00:11:18.559 to see because a lot of the vets suffer. 256 00:11:19.679 --> 00:11:23.360 Yeah, it's very military theme. They have Healer Indica Warriors Sativa, 257 00:11:23.480 --> 00:11:27.159 and Shooter Hybrid. I like that Shooter sounds fun, but 258 00:11:27.279 --> 00:11:29.240 I love that. I don't know, just don't it's like 259 00:11:29.279 --> 00:11:33.679 shoot a shooter, mccavn what. But yeah, so he's a 260 00:11:33.720 --> 00:11:36.759 formal member of Seal Team six and game recognition for 261 00:11:36.840 --> 00:11:38.879 taking credit for the fatal shot and something in the 262 00:11:38.919 --> 00:11:40.840 master behind nine to eleven. If you don't know, if 263 00:11:40.919 --> 00:11:43.600 you're crazy thing, if you don't know about nine to eleven, 264 00:11:43.720 --> 00:11:47.279 but during a COVID operation in Pac Santos eleven you're 265 00:11:47.279 --> 00:11:50.600 too young, you just it's if you don't know maybe 266 00:11:50.720 --> 00:11:52.159 well actually no, that's why I was doing the math. 267 00:11:52.200 --> 00:11:54.080 I was like, could you be old enough now? Because 268 00:11:54.080 --> 00:11:55.519 I feel so old when you go though. 269 00:11:55.360 --> 00:11:56.320 I mean you would be twenty three. 270 00:11:56.519 --> 00:11:56.840 I don't know. 271 00:11:57.519 --> 00:11:59.240 But if you didn't learn about it in high school 272 00:11:59.279 --> 00:12:02.200 or anything that I don't know. But no. 273 00:12:02.480 --> 00:12:04.840 But so it's interesting, you know, like like Dave said, 274 00:12:04.879 --> 00:12:08.600 that's really cool to see someone doing some about the vets. 275 00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:11.320 I just think it's interesting to have that military theme 276 00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:13.879 because sometimes when you talk about cannabis, you talked about 277 00:12:13.879 --> 00:12:18.159 someone in the military. It's so, but almost don't go 278 00:12:18.279 --> 00:12:21.279 hand in hand, you know, although they should with PTSD. 279 00:12:21.440 --> 00:12:23.240 What is it the ra is that is that the 280 00:12:23.759 --> 00:12:26.360 the v A, the v A right? Uh? Veterans, Yeah, 281 00:12:26.399 --> 00:12:27.879 the veterans, they don't even a lot of them don't 282 00:12:27.879 --> 00:12:32.000 even support the cannabis. So and there are a lot 283 00:12:32.080 --> 00:12:34.559 of them. A lot of veterans suffer from PTSD from 284 00:12:34.840 --> 00:12:37.720 being in the war wars, I should say, and. 285 00:12:38.159 --> 00:12:39.840 I mean just anything. I mean you have to do 286 00:12:39.960 --> 00:12:41.960 some things that you don't have to do in normal 287 00:12:42.080 --> 00:12:44.559 civilian life that I don't think civilians can understand, you 288 00:12:44.559 --> 00:12:44.840 know what I mean. 289 00:12:44.879 --> 00:12:46.279 Oh yeah, we can't even fathom to think about what 290 00:12:46.279 --> 00:12:47.639 they do. We just see what they do with movies 291 00:12:47.679 --> 00:12:48.840 and you're like, oh, I think I could do that, 292 00:12:48.879 --> 00:12:50.120 And you're like no, no, no, no, you know the 293 00:12:50.240 --> 00:12:50.720 training and. 294 00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:51.320 Stuff of the movies. 295 00:12:51.480 --> 00:12:55.159 Yeah, So I thought it was cool. Like you said, 296 00:12:55.279 --> 00:12:58.000 everything's themed, uh for military. 297 00:12:58.320 --> 00:13:01.159 I love the approach, you know, unique, very interesting, whatever 298 00:13:01.159 --> 00:13:02.919 you want to call it. But it's very unique to itself. 299 00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:05.080 And I love the idea because you don't see enough 300 00:13:05.120 --> 00:13:08.080 of it. You know, there are vets here. We always 301 00:13:08.080 --> 00:13:11.440 see some who is the guy that speaks Blake on 302 00:13:11.559 --> 00:13:14.080 his name. Forgive me Jamie, if you're in the comments, 303 00:13:14.120 --> 00:13:16.559 are listening. But there is a guy who always talks 304 00:13:16.559 --> 00:13:18.799 about this type of stuff and hash bash. You know, 305 00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:20.840 it's just because it needs it needs to be discussed, 306 00:13:20.919 --> 00:13:21.080 you know. 307 00:13:21.320 --> 00:13:23.519 No, it does, man, it does. And there's that's a 308 00:13:23.639 --> 00:13:25.200 huge group of people, a lot and some of them 309 00:13:25.240 --> 00:13:27.440 are even homeless, and they're out there fighting for our 310 00:13:27.919 --> 00:13:30.639 for our freedoms, which kills me every time. So like, 311 00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:32.840 I love seeing him do this. I hope his brand 312 00:13:32.879 --> 00:13:34.559 does well in the state. I hope it's I hope 313 00:13:34.600 --> 00:13:39.120 the flowers good. Right, Yeah, but it's so hard Soho. 314 00:13:39.200 --> 00:13:40.639 I think it's going to be in Soho. A lot 315 00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:43.279 of the Soho stories are something those saying I don't 316 00:13:43.279 --> 00:13:45.840 know who's grown it didn say. But I hope it's 317 00:13:45.879 --> 00:13:48.399 a good product because I love the backing behind it, 318 00:13:48.480 --> 00:13:51.039 giving it back to a lot of the vets. And 319 00:13:51.159 --> 00:13:53.960 like we said, the packaging is all catered military st 320 00:13:54.200 --> 00:13:55.559 I think that's going to hit home with a lot 321 00:13:55.600 --> 00:13:58.879 of people that have gone that have some military background 322 00:13:58.960 --> 00:14:00.159 or family, and a lot of people have. 323 00:14:00.200 --> 00:14:02.559 Someone there family. I'm I've come from military. 324 00:14:02.559 --> 00:14:06.039 You know, I have something too. Uncles or uncles. 325 00:14:06.399 --> 00:14:08.679 But if you're if you're dabbing smoking with us, let 326 00:14:08.720 --> 00:14:10.159 us know what your David is smoking on the comments 327 00:14:10.200 --> 00:14:12.360 always I'm dabbing on some gushers. 328 00:14:12.759 --> 00:14:14.440 At Calhoun Korean by Kinship. 329 00:14:14.480 --> 00:14:17.240 So I forgot I have that cannoby up here. Yeah, 330 00:14:17.320 --> 00:14:18.360 put that down, so doesn't. 331 00:14:20.600 --> 00:14:22.360 We got the cannoby up here. And that's that the 332 00:14:22.440 --> 00:14:25.080 Apex collabing. If you don't, If you're not familiar with Apex, 333 00:14:25.120 --> 00:14:27.960 go check out our episode January first with Eddie, owner 334 00:14:28.159 --> 00:14:32.279 and operator of Apax Cannabis. He's got a great story too, 335 00:14:33.279 --> 00:14:36.519 sad stories. It's sad, but also it's very motivating and 336 00:14:36.600 --> 00:14:40.240 what he does, and he does a lot, so appreciate you, Iddie. 337 00:14:40.279 --> 00:14:41.679 We've still got to come out, so if you're listening, 338 00:14:41.759 --> 00:14:44.159 we'll be coming out here in a couple of months, 339 00:14:44.200 --> 00:14:46.639 probably probably towards spring. But yeah, let's shop into our 340 00:14:46.679 --> 00:14:49.360 next article here, groovy. I'm wanted to jump into Minnesota 341 00:14:49.399 --> 00:14:51.360 real quick. Briefly, I thought the Minnesota stuff and it 342 00:14:51.519 --> 00:14:53.440 just the reason why I brought out Minnesota is because 343 00:14:53.519 --> 00:14:55.440 Jess Jackson, who we just had on last week, is 344 00:14:55.480 --> 00:14:57.679 actually working a lot on Smith's Minnesota stuff. 345 00:14:58.080 --> 00:14:58.480 Just Jackson. 346 00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:02.080 That's going on within trying to opening up licenses and 347 00:15:02.120 --> 00:15:04.519 getting people to register for it. And then also on 348 00:15:04.639 --> 00:15:07.039 top of that, Jess Jackson also has a self help 349 00:15:07.080 --> 00:15:08.879 book she wrote as well too, I want to mention. 350 00:15:09.080 --> 00:15:13.679 So, yeah, she's a social equity director out there in Minnesota. 351 00:15:13.279 --> 00:15:16.919 So yeah, she does a lot. She's crushed. 352 00:15:16.960 --> 00:15:18.960 I can't remember if we talked about this. I think 353 00:15:19.000 --> 00:15:22.039 we did discuss that they're accepting license applications, but they are. 354 00:15:22.919 --> 00:15:26.200 I think it came up. It's funny about it's rebringing this, yeah, 355 00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:28.320 because I feel like we got the four War one 356 00:15:28.360 --> 00:15:28.559 on it. 357 00:15:28.879 --> 00:15:30.480 We did, we did, But before we jump into that, 358 00:15:30.519 --> 00:15:32.000 I just want a real quick mention that I thought 359 00:15:32.080 --> 00:15:34.759 this was even cool. Minnesota tribes can open up five 360 00:15:34.879 --> 00:15:37.399 cannabis shops potentially under the. 361 00:15:37.720 --> 00:15:39.440 She did bring that up that they were starting out, 362 00:15:39.480 --> 00:15:40.519 but he didn't say how many. 363 00:15:40.600 --> 00:15:43.559 But this is outside the reservation though, so it doesn't 364 00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:44.679 even have to be on their land. 365 00:15:44.879 --> 00:15:47.480 They can't know how Vegas was with new that wasn't 366 00:15:47.519 --> 00:15:49.320 on land, was it? I thought it was just the 367 00:15:49.440 --> 00:15:52.279 owners were I thought I thought that was on land. Interesting. 368 00:15:52.360 --> 00:15:54.399 I thought I could be wrong. I didn't guess I 369 00:15:54.519 --> 00:15:55.919 just figured because it's right down town. 370 00:15:55.960 --> 00:15:58.600 Because the Assumption Lounge, I mean it is desert and 371 00:15:58.600 --> 00:15:58.879 a lot of. 372 00:15:59.399 --> 00:16:01.360 No I know, I I guess I don't know where 373 00:16:01.360 --> 00:16:03.320 the you know, I thought you'd have to go into 374 00:16:03.360 --> 00:16:05.879 a certain area. That's all right. I don't know how 375 00:16:05.919 --> 00:16:07.440 that works. I've just never been on a reservation. 376 00:16:07.559 --> 00:16:09.399 Some reason. I think it was reservation because that's why 377 00:16:09.440 --> 00:16:11.679 I was able to open on the Consumption Lounge. But 378 00:16:11.799 --> 00:16:12.399 I could be wrong. 379 00:16:12.559 --> 00:16:15.320 No, no, no, I'm just one. I don't hear questioning. 380 00:16:15.360 --> 00:16:17.360 I'm not questioning what you're saying. I'm questioning, like I 381 00:16:17.480 --> 00:16:19.720 wonder if they're taking a similar model to like Vegas, 382 00:16:20.159 --> 00:16:23.399 and they're taking that model, you know, more equity approach 383 00:16:23.519 --> 00:16:25.080 on it, right man, because there's when there's a lot 384 00:16:25.080 --> 00:16:26.759 of hardships. Man. Like I said, people don't want to 385 00:16:27.200 --> 00:16:31.080 really think about equity versus quality. But equity is giving 386 00:16:31.159 --> 00:16:34.799 people even an advantage to give an equal playing field, 387 00:16:34.840 --> 00:16:36.279 and I think some people forget about that. 388 00:16:37.159 --> 00:16:39.240 Yeah, I thought it was unique that if this does 389 00:16:39.360 --> 00:16:42.159 go through and they're able to open off off Land, 390 00:16:42.200 --> 00:16:44.000 I think that's huge because then you're able to hit 391 00:16:44.080 --> 00:16:46.799 crazy different, They're able to hit everybody like everyone else. 392 00:16:46.799 --> 00:16:48.399 Like you said, everyone's get a fair opportunity to hit 393 00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:50.960 every every consumer out there. When it's just on the 394 00:16:51.080 --> 00:16:54.120 land and you're just in that spot, they got to 395 00:16:54.159 --> 00:16:56.200 how are they getting people? And you can't advertise right, 396 00:16:56.320 --> 00:16:59.039 like so like you have to have something driving them there. 397 00:16:59.120 --> 00:17:00.759 So do they have is it like here? I'm not 398 00:17:00.840 --> 00:17:06.200 familiar with UH reservations or Native American land out in Minnesota, 399 00:17:06.480 --> 00:17:08.559 but like here in Michigan we have was it Soreing 400 00:17:08.640 --> 00:17:10.880 Eagles Land? You have a casino there and people would 401 00:17:10.880 --> 00:17:12.519
