Speaker 1: my head yeah too. But thank you for joining us today.
Speaker 1: And let's get a little background information. What got you
Speaker 1: into cannabis? What got you into the industry?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, le let's hear about who it is hot
Speaker 2: Pot Jenny.
Speaker 3: That's a really loaded question, but I.
Speaker 2: Guess well, we got longere. It's a long format. We
Speaker 2: got that's true.
Speaker 3: Would you guys, let's maybe start with the sativa. Do
Speaker 3: you guys like a rang a tang?
Speaker 2: Oh? Sure? Shadow heavy Weightheads for the day.
Speaker 3: I have a torch later here. This is in fuse.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna like it.
Speaker 1: Start off with that.
Speaker 3: I appreciate that.
Speaker 2: So, yeah, so you joints huh.
Speaker 3: Then fuse joints are a nice touch. I didn't bring
Speaker 3: the puff co. I think I saw you have the
Speaker 3: proxy there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I actually just got it for my birthday this week.
Speaker 3: Happy birthday in two days days almost.
Speaker 1: Well.
Speaker 3: I guess it all started when for me, I was
Speaker 3: in a car accident in sixth grade and it eventually
Speaker 3: led to being on you know, prescription medications, and fifteen
Speaker 3: years old, discovered cannabis changed my life, healing medicine. The
Speaker 3: power of that led me to want to just do
Speaker 3: something in that in is a profession, and I chase
Speaker 3: that for a while, unsuccessfully, went through a couple of
Speaker 3: different careers, moved out to California, tried to get into cannabis,
Speaker 3: then New Mexico, then Colorado.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, so you traveled in different markets.
Speaker 2: When you were fifteen? Did you like start into canas
Speaker 2: pretty heavily nousing it?
Speaker 3: I will, Yes, I've been a daily user since I
Speaker 3: discovered it when I was fifteen years old, so every
Speaker 3: day used it. Been off the prescription med since. Don't
Speaker 3: use like the thank.
Speaker 2: You, I mean I hear you in a different way.
Speaker 2: I had some issues with prescription pills, so like, uh,
Speaker 2: you know, party stuff. So when you talk about that,
Speaker 2: is really cool to hear the other side that it
Speaker 2: helped you, Like in the medical side, we're avoiding pills,
Speaker 2: you know, I was recreationally using them, so like, so
Speaker 2: it's really cool to hear you, you know, gain from cannabis.
Speaker 3: You know, so young too, and it helps with addiction
Speaker 3: and it helps with there's so many healing properties to it.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, just I knew.
Speaker 3: That was my calling but wasn't really able to get
Speaker 3: much into it until I was able to full time
Speaker 3: through a good friend of mine, get into the heavyweight A.
Speaker 2: It's so nice. How long you been there?
Speaker 3: Since two thousand and April twenty twenty one. Yep. I
Speaker 3: was kind of working in cosmetic dermatology and during the pandemic,
Speaker 3: it was just difficult, wasn't fulfilling. Knew I had to
Speaker 3: get out of it, but I was actually but tending
Speaker 3: part time for three years while I was working for
Speaker 3: the doctor and it was like a double life secret
Speaker 3: and it was just working weekends, learned as much as
Speaker 3: I kind of about the plant during the caregiver days
Speaker 3: and things you know, changed a lot and I got
Speaker 3: to see licensing happen.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, And.
Speaker 1: It's crazy how fast we've changed within since we went
Speaker 1: lea for medical legal in eighteen an hour we're at
Speaker 1: now it's just like mine, you've been paying attention. It's like,
Speaker 1: what the hell?
Speaker 3: And it's still we're still fighting for patient rights and
Speaker 3: caregiver rights, so we can forget that.
Speaker 1: The fight's not over fat I mean smells probable cost
Speaker 1: still here in the state. I believe like that that's ridiculous,
Speaker 1: especially if you're medical even legal. It shouldn't be a
Speaker 1: probable cause.
Speaker 2: Yeah you off bok.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, you're absolutely right. So I'm still a
Speaker 3: registered medical patient, and you know, I just want people
Speaker 3: to know that it's it's going to help with all
Speaker 3: the the rallies and laws that they're trying to keep
Speaker 3: in place that we already fought for once. So Michigan Weedsters,
Speaker 3: I love to see what they're doing. And I know
Speaker 3: that there's going to be around around the.
Speaker 1: Twelfth, so that's at the Capitol yep, yep.
Speaker 3: So definitely want to just want to be involved as
Speaker 3: much as I can, and Heavyweight Heads has been a
Speaker 3: huge platform for me to be able to get out
Speaker 3: there and meet people and get involved in the causes
Speaker 3: that I support, including Pink Sash and Cababes and all
Speaker 3: these events that we get to see each other. I'm
Speaker 3: sure we've both been.
Speaker 2: At it at some point, just like what you were
Speaker 2: talking about, you know, just like five years six years ago,
Speaker 2: we just went legal where you know, it was like
Speaker 2: hard to get any events going. We tried. I was
Speaker 2: like I was hearing it into my head, what's happening?
Speaker 1: Money?
Speaker 2: Oh, but how far like would the events have really
Speaker 2: come like back and then I mean, you know, I
Speaker 2: don't know if I should say their name, but there
Speaker 2: was a place off like seven mile that would have
Speaker 2: like caregiver events like Detroit yeah, and other things like that.
Speaker 2: And but it was cracking me up though, because like
Speaker 2: how shady that still was when it was legal, Like
Speaker 2: even the dispos were illegal, like what you know, so
Speaker 2: like to now to be able to just smoke, we
Speaker 2: did events and go these crazy things and get freebies,
Speaker 2: and I don't know, it's just wild man.
Speaker 3: Times have changed, wild.
Speaker 1: And we got consumption Lune is nowadays too. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: mind blowing from back in the day. Interesting, it was
Speaker 1: like only like a thought like something we all wanted.
Speaker 1: I hope they continue opening up here in the metro.
Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, nice, Yes, we need that to happen.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we do.
Speaker 3: With the concert and music scene, there's you know, huge
Speaker 3: opportunity for all the festivals go on. And I know,
Speaker 3: like a couple of years ago there was for twenty
Speaker 3: Music Fest and I think there was MotorCity Roots Fest.
Speaker 3: There was a lot of consumption music festivals that.
Speaker 2: Actually just played.
Speaker 1: I was at motor City Roots last year.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just played one last weekend, no two weekends
Speaker 2: ago summer and smoke Out in the up They did
Speaker 2: metrics selling and legal stuff and like Mike Jones headline.
Speaker 2: I mean it was great. It was a great time.
Speaker 3: Nice.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was really fun.
Speaker 1: Music, music and cannabis go together. Or yeah, music and
Speaker 1: cannabis can in hand. Yeah. So like I love seeing
Speaker 1: the events where you have artists there because it reminds
Speaker 1: me of going back to the medical days, back when
Speaker 1: it was high times and it was at Clio and
Speaker 1: it was like twenty eight, twenty seventeen, twenty sixteen, you
Speaker 1: had like bone Thugs you had I think they're we
Speaker 1: had Mike Jones one year. Who else do We have
Speaker 1: definitely Mike.
Speaker 2: Jones because that was one of the year. That was
Speaker 2: one of year when we learned that one song. I
Speaker 2: always love it.
Speaker 1: For three point five three, and then I think Little
Speaker 1: Kim was there one year too.
Speaker 3: Remember they had.
Speaker 1: They used to bring artists, so it was like that
Speaker 1: takes me back to those times and like when it
Speaker 1: was that, that was like what brought us into like
Speaker 1: loving the scene even so much more because like everyone's
Speaker 1: there smoking cannabis, mingling, networking and it's surrounded around cannabis
Speaker 1: and the dads.
Speaker 3: And the flower Those have been the best times for
Speaker 3: me to network and it's incredible the stories and the
Speaker 3: people that I've met at some of these shows. Because
Speaker 3: Trick Trick being involved with heavyweight heads, it's really given
Speaker 3: me a ton of access to these artists and we've
Speaker 3: been constantly been able to sponsor a lot of these
Speaker 3: shows like off Label I Guess If you Will you know,
Speaker 3: and trit Trick being you know, a gate keeper to
Speaker 3: the music industry in this area. They go through him.
Speaker 3: And I've had the chance to smoke with Snoop Snoop
Speaker 3: Dogg last summer and Pine Knob forty five Minutes and
Speaker 3: was Khalifa's dressing room with You're.
Speaker 2: Literally talking about Cana. Dave's like right now, it's like verbatim,
Speaker 2: like you're in his head.
Speaker 3: Like it was vild. It's like we're in a room
Speaker 3: this big and it's like a dozen of us packed
Speaker 3: in here, just hot boxing, and it was just like
Speaker 3: a movie. It was so surreal, Like I just pinched myself,
Speaker 3: like this really happened to me. I don't know how,
Speaker 3: and then it just happens again, and then you know,
Speaker 3: it's it's be real or it's the Marley's and we.
Speaker 2: Trick Tick's been making music for a while and then
Speaker 2: like you know, went up. He last time I saw him,
Speaker 2: he did someone with like a live band, and you know,
Speaker 2: for being like a live musician, I'm like, that's tight,
Speaker 2: you know. And I love hip hop. I love electronics,
Speaker 2: so it's like I love the mixing of live and yes,
Speaker 2: digital stuff.
Speaker 3: And he's actually branched out into different.
Speaker 2: It was like a few and funk stuff. It was
Speaker 2: really bad.
Speaker 3: He's actually also produced a scream o band.
Speaker 2: Really and it was on that's really cool. You ever
Speaker 2: need sex?
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's still holding it down and.
Speaker 2: He's still he's been making music for decades.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and like at his birthday party, you know, like
Speaker 3: flavor Flav just blows through and you know it's just
Speaker 3: hilarious all the faces.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know, and how well he's done with heavyweight. Hey,
Speaker 2: I don't know, obviously it's not you know, just trick trick,
Speaker 2: you know. But we actually ran into some of the
Speaker 2: team in Vegas and shout out. We were talking Aaron
Speaker 2: before that episode blessed us with that. We're talking nothing
Speaker 2: but dry bus.
Speaker 1: So you three days were so good with We were
Speaker 1: so happy.
Speaker 2: You know in Vegas, do me wrong. Every a lot
Speaker 2: of ship's dry. It's hard to keep like at the
Speaker 2: right moisture. So we're sitting out there and then we
Speaker 2: got blessed with some of this stuff.
Speaker 1: You know that was at the what after party? Was
Speaker 1: that what's his name from the North Coast got Travis
Speaker 1: got us and that was sick. Shout out Travis man.
Speaker 2: Travis is great, great stuff. I saw some purple patella
Speaker 2: by your North Coast and I'm like, holy crap.
Speaker 3: They make our concentrate our live rosin. That's in what
Speaker 3: you're smoking right now. They actually, yes, there's live rosin
Speaker 3: and it's it's coated in it. That's the ring of
Speaker 3: tang right there. And I also have a sun fuel
Speaker 3: and a draft head doesn't have those.
Speaker 2: It's a live rosin if he oh, okay, cool, I
Speaker 2: didn't even ask.
Speaker 3: Ram of live rosin and the same strain of flower
Speaker 3: full ram. Yeah. So it burns nice and slow and.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's burned real good, white, ash clean. We even
Speaker 1: got the oil line coming through. Yeah.
Speaker 3: But Travis's team he rolled those up, patched them up
Speaker 3: for us. He processed the rosin for us with our
Speaker 3: flower ship.
Speaker 1: Shout out Travis North Coast.
Speaker 2: Yeah but whatever you.
Speaker 3: But yeah, Vegas, did you didn't get to see No.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no no.
Speaker 3: I think he was out there. He was booked to
Speaker 3: DJ and.
Speaker 2: I'm sure there's always something going on in Vegas.
Speaker 3: It's funny because you're like probably the stepond or third
Speaker 3: people that I know that said Aaron was there. We daddy,
Speaker 3: that was because he just happens to gift everyone that
Speaker 3: they need and hold them down.
Speaker 1: You cooked it up. We were we needed it, we need.
Speaker 2: I'm saying you bless me. But no, that was. That
Speaker 2: was a great time. And so we've got a lot
Speaker 2: of like run ins with heavy weeightheads, so it's super cool,
Speaker 2: like meet you and hear that, like it sounds like
Speaker 2: you're really happy. It sounds like you're happy, you know,
Speaker 2: you love the team, they're blessing these all these cool opportunities.
Speaker 2: What actually got you into heavyweight heads Because like we
Speaker 2: talked about guys, you camus what but how did you
Speaker 2: run into these? Like how'd you just resume?
Speaker 3: So after bud tending on the side on the weekends,
Speaker 3: double life there for a few years, I was at
Speaker 3: Bloom City Club in ann.
Speaker 1: Arbor and we've been there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I was there actually recently.
Speaker 1: Okay, I love that.
Speaker 3: It is and I learned so much from them, and
Speaker 3: my my friends always knew me as you know, the
Speaker 3: can of queen in our group. You know, I was
Speaker 3: always the bud tind of that provided everything, always had
Speaker 3: the fire. They knew that this job opportunity was up there,
Speaker 3: they just recruited me. So it was, you know, admittedly nepotism.
Speaker 3: It was a high school friend of mine who was
Speaker 3: actually my plug back in the day and he is
Speaker 3: our metrics specialist shout out spere out at and then
Speaker 3: also Nick, our former c oo who trained me and
Speaker 3: got me into all the sales and marketing.
Speaker 2: That's cool. It's fai es like, you know, it's really
Speaker 2: cool that they pulled you in kind of like knowing,
Speaker 2: you know, you know, not just hiring. So I like that.
Speaker 2: I love family vibes.
Speaker 1: Where did you did you work out? So when you
Speaker 1: were out in Cali, Colorado and New Mexico, like the
Speaker 1: whole West Coast, it sounds like did you work out
Speaker 1: there in the industry as well too?
Speaker 3: I tried to, and I was in just general retail.
Speaker 3: I was a general manager shoe stores for Aldo and
Speaker 3: Journeys that then ended up doing trying to get out
Speaker 3: of retail, ended up being home a banker for Wells Fargo.
Speaker 3: Realized that was still retail sales banking services still not
Speaker 3: any better, but and eventually got into cannabis online SEO
Speaker 3: and marketing and it didn't really stick, wasn't super lucrative,
Speaker 3: and ended up going to a aesthetics school, became an
Speaker 3: licens tition and that's where I ended up working into
Speaker 3: dermatology and cosmetic aesthetics. Full circle and then you came
Speaker 3: jumped back in jump out of that to go finally
Speaker 3: full back full time into cannabis, you.
Speaker 1: Feel you feel like it's like a full circle, like complete.
Speaker 1: Now you're you're happy where you're at now within the industry,
Speaker 1: I am.
Speaker 3: True colors, no more double life. I to be myself
Speaker 3: and that's why I'm now Jenny instead of Jen, who
Speaker 3: I always was as an adult.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we didn't know. We were talking about what do
Speaker 2: we call you? That makes sense, and like I don't
Speaker 2: know if you feel comfortable sharing, but like do you
Speaker 2: want to shore? I love, like I really found that
Speaker 2: really cool. Why you go by have pot Jenny?
Speaker 3: Yeah versus sure? I mean as a kid, I was
Speaker 3: always Jenny. My friend's family always called me Jenny. I
Speaker 3: actually married my high school sweetheart. He still calls me Jenny.
Speaker 3: And then when I became an adult, I was like, nope,
Speaker 3: I gotta drop that. I can't be this stoner. I
Speaker 3: have to get into the corporate world and you know,
Speaker 3: make something of myself and became Jen. And then when
Speaker 3: I finally decided to leave corporate American medical field, I
Speaker 3: went back to Jenny and as a publicly open stoner.
Speaker 3: And now I'm back to myself.
Speaker 2: You know, it's funny now that like in this world,
Speaker 2: like day and age, like you can kind of be
Speaker 2: open a little bit more about smoking. But in corporate
Speaker 2: America now, which is crazy because like you said, like
Speaker 2: I mean even five years ago, you would have been
Speaker 2: like I smoked weed. They'd be like, here is your
Speaker 2: two week notice. Yeah, is so much judgment now where
Speaker 2: like like it's like, I mean, I have to give
Speaker 2: too many World War examples. But like I've worked for
Speaker 2: day jobs and like I remember when I got hired,
Speaker 2: they were like corporate stuff and they were like, hey,
Speaker 2: uh you know the we're the band weed guy. I
Speaker 2: was like, uh, yep, and I still got job, you know,
Speaker 2: I do av So it's a little different. I think
Speaker 2: they kind of assume you're gonna move. But I think
Speaker 2: it's funny now that finally corporate America has coming around
Speaker 2: to realize that it doesn't make you lazy, like you know,
Speaker 2: I mean, that's just a huge snath, you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's one of the biggest propaganda's not there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, opinion, I would not be able to accomplish like
Speaker 3: most of what I do if it works for cannabis,
Speaker 3: you know cannabis. Yeah, it does.
Speaker 1: It's got many benefits for everybody, and it helps everyone
Speaker 1: in It's each unique way and that's.
Speaker 2: Why I love the plant so much. Yeah, so I
Speaker 2: guess like moving on to like, you know, being in
Speaker 2: the industry, Like as a female in this industry, have
Speaker 2: you like faced any like you know, tripulations or like
Speaker 2: seen any like like any like challenges, challenges or even
Speaker 2: like any like blessings like people like you know, pink
Speaker 2: sess or something, how you bust like anybody that you
Speaker 2: want to shout out because I think sometimes as a
Speaker 2: female's industry, it's very male dominated, So I'm always curious
Speaker 2: to get a female perspective when you're working in the industry.
Speaker 3: I mean, there's definitely flip side to it.
Speaker 2: Right, That's why I was like positive because there's probably
Speaker 2: both sides, you.
Speaker 3: Know, you know, and a very male dominant dominated team.
Speaker 3: When someone needs something, they might automatically just go to
Speaker 3: me because they think I'm the secretary or whatnot. But
Speaker 3: you know, also that might just be an effective choice,
Speaker 3: you know, So I try to So I would say,
Speaker 3: you know, the more hats that you wear, the more
Speaker 3: effective you can be. And I try to use that
Speaker 3: to my benefit. But you know, there are there have
Speaker 3: been sometimes where I may have been held back, whereas
Speaker 3: someone might look at me as just a brand ambassador
Speaker 3: when they see me sitting in the store trying to
Speaker 3: you know, promote the brand give off freebies. But you know,
Speaker 3: if they are trying to get something resolved with their
Speaker 3: order that's through me, they might just totally overlook that,
Speaker 3: even when I've attempted to offer help, so you know it,
Speaker 3: you know it has help.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So you deal with those kind of like people.
Speaker 2: I would hate to say it, but almost like those
Speaker 2: natural sexiests, so you know what I mean, they don't
Speaker 2: even it's like subindus, you know what I mean. So
Speaker 2: like and that kind of makes sense because I feel
Speaker 2: like you deal with that in a lot of industries,
Speaker 2: you know, so that makes sense that it.
Speaker 3: Carries over in any industry for sure.
Speaker 2: It's just interesting to hear that they assume you're like
Speaker 2: a brand ambassador, you.
Speaker 3: Know, yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 2: Because like you know, I just I find that fascinating
Speaker 2: because that is interesting because I know that people do
Speaker 2: hire a lot of people who work boost for them,
Speaker 2: but I feel like it has to because you're a female.
Speaker 2: And that's interesting that they just assume you're a brand ambassador,
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's interesting perceived value in the role, you.
Speaker 2: Know, yeah, And I almost wonder if that's I mean,
Speaker 2: I hope that it's just because you're behind the table
Speaker 2: like at a at like a dispo, you know what
Speaker 2: I mean, But I do feel you it might have
Speaker 2: to do with and just people naturally thinking that.
Speaker 3: But then luckily there's groups like the Pink Session Cannababes
Speaker 3: where they are, Yeah, they really help engage with the
Speaker 3: community and help lift other women up. And that's provided
Speaker 3: me a lot of opportunities to meet people and and
Speaker 3: you know, further causes and you know, just things that
Speaker 3: end up leading things like this through Jess and Patty.
Speaker 1: So shout out. Absolutely, they're great. We we just donated
Speaker 1: to their PS retreat, so I think this will be
Speaker 1: out after the retreat. So we like to help out
Speaker 1: as well too. We actually had Patty on uh Patty
Speaker 1: and Pam on last year if you didn't check out
Speaker 1: that episode, and then we had Jess my Cannabision last
Speaker 1: year actually interviewed.
Speaker 2: Us Sam Pam.
Speaker 3: I haven't seen that one.
Speaker 1: Oh where she uh when she interviewed you.
Speaker 2: That was funny, Yeah, it was, it was.
Speaker 1: It was a fun episode. It was We've never had
Speaker 1: anyone actually come on and want to interview us, so
Speaker 1: like we thought it was a great idea to come
Speaker 1: on and that was one of.
Speaker 2: The first time of Dave was like, Yo, try this banger.
Speaker 1: Yeah, hell hell yeah.
Speaker 3: Is there any questions of hers that really stood out?
Speaker 3: I feel like she would have come up with some
Speaker 3: really really creative ones.
Speaker 1: It's been a while, it's been I think it's about
Speaker 1: a year almost to day. Then yeah, yeah, and that
Speaker 1: shout out that was really good, that burned for like
Speaker 1: almost twenty minutes.
Speaker 2: I saw it. It wasn't that I didn't even know.
Speaker 2: You guys did ros and and fuse stuff, so that's
Speaker 2: really cool.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can get a mad house of ink, all
Speaker 3: the house of dank, most of the house in ink
Speaker 3: stores and puff and Exclusive.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah yeah.
Speaker 3: They're always pretty much always will have happy wet heads
Speaker 3: and stock holding it down and including like the new stuff.
Speaker 3: And so next week we are launching the Lagarrett Blunt collab.
Speaker 2: Which is not they're not blunts. I had to clarify
Speaker 2: because I was like, are these blunts that were talking
Speaker 2: like I don't understand what I'm seeing right now, But.

Speaker 4: a college ball game, almost cost him his college n NFL.
Speaker 1: Why what it got suspended? Uh? It was you can go.

Speaker 2: how you learn, right, you ask questions. I'm not There's

Speaker 2: Oh dude, your Sunshine number four again? I bought it
Speaker 2: before it was like metric you know, but I literally
Speaker 2: what was that whatever it used to be called puff?
Speaker 2: Was it called puff too? I ain't mile though. I
Speaker 2: used to go there all the time. The ten dollar
Speaker 2: g twenty five dollars as me and it's like we
Speaker 2: went there all the time, like that Sunshine number four.
Speaker 2: I smoked much much. That's my ship.

Speaker 1: So I was like, bro all day, literally is odds
Speaker 1: all they had. I was like, you want to match?
Speaker 1: It's like yeah, Sunshine number four. I'm like, okay, this
Speaker 1: is super cool. It's a good strain real quick because
Speaker 1: it looks really nice.
Speaker 2: This is the Yes.
Speaker 1: I really like the loo Garrett punch you because that
Speaker 1: point you said.

Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Sorry stealing all the questions?
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no no, no, it was good good, No,
Speaker 1: it's going good. Do you have a specific while you're
Speaker 1: rolling that up? Do you you prefer joints? I think?
Speaker 1: Or do you like to dab? What's your favorite way
Speaker 1: to consume?
Speaker 3: But I'm also a heavy dabber when is flower It's.
Speaker 1: Going to be a joint. Okay, do you have any
Speaker 1: specific your favorite strains?
Speaker 3: Like I love tropicana, cookies and tangy.
Speaker 2: Every time Derban gets brought up, like he used to
Speaker 2: have this cut of Durban that was silly, like legit
Speaker 2: cut of Durbin until.
Speaker 1: The cops d Yeah, it.
Speaker 3: Was so sad.
Speaker 2: I love jack strings, jackerair, that's what it was, the
Speaker 2: Jacker Cup. That's where yes ran there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, are you guys going to.
Speaker 1: Yep, yep, we already got the already book the hotel
Speaker 1: and the tickets. Time.
Speaker 2: It is exciting because usually we stay down towards doubtwn
Speaker 2: or down the strip. We're staying on the strip this time.
Speaker 1: I got it nice.
Speaker 3: Do you guys gamble?
Speaker 2: Dave's got me into it, No comment whatever, no comment. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Grampa and his dad he used to go gambling. It
Speaker 2: was like those whole things. It's fun.
Speaker 1: That's what we like to do. I like roulette personally.
Speaker 1: Roulettes like my go to. But I like to play
Speaker 1: I don't play the table roulette. I like table roulette,
Speaker 1: but I just like to sit down at the like
Speaker 1: the machine roulette and I just play the spread there
Speaker 1: and I have my own different strategy and then honestly,
Speaker 1: Crafts recently has been kind of cool too.
Speaker 3: So I've never played Crabs.
Speaker 1: I did not until my birthday this year, and then
Speaker 1: like my buddy, we were playing at a Greek town
Speaker 1: and then I started like okay, and then I started
Speaker 1: doing some research on it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, way up, way down?
Speaker 3: Jeez. Is that what you're gonna do to celebrate your birthday?
Speaker 2: I don't know. No, we're doing like X throwing.
Speaker 3: I think have you done that?
Speaker 2: No? No, I never have.
Speaker 3: That's really fun.
Speaker 1: Yes.
Speaker 3: My cousin has a spot in Livonia and he has
Speaker 3: Chinese throwing stars.
Speaker 2: N let's go.
Speaker 3: He's got a variety of stuff that you could choose
Speaker 3: from at each spot, and it's like, there's nothing more
Speaker 3: liberating than taking three Chinese stars throwing stars and like
Speaker 3: just choking him all at once. Badass bingja. It's fun
Speaker 3: definitely my head. Yeah, it's a good time. They have
Speaker 3: some of those places they'll let you rent out, and
Speaker 3: I'm I'm trying to see if we can do like
Speaker 3: a cannabis event, because I'd rather be around stone people
Speaker 3: throwing sharp, dangerous objects than keep people any day.
Speaker 1: So anytime I choose a start crowd crowd, I want
Speaker 1: to jump in. So content creating is there specific content
Speaker 1: like the create you like? Do? Do you do photos? Like?
Speaker 1: Do videos? Like? What?
Speaker 2: And what got you into content creation too?
Speaker 3: Was it cannabis go pros back in like two Yeah,
Speaker 3: So I was always like out west and in Colorado, California,
Speaker 3: whenever I was mountain biking or kayaking or hiking, I
Speaker 3: always have Yeah, it all started with that, and like
Speaker 3: I just never really was into the social media scene.
Speaker 3: And then when I ended up getting hired to do
Speaker 3: social media in the cannabis industry, like I was like,
Speaker 3: might as well just start using the skills I'm using
Speaker 3: for the brands for myself and start marketing myself and
Speaker 3: share some of may be the content from the events
Speaker 3: I was going to. And I have so much content
Speaker 3: backstage with Snoop Dogg and Whiskally Fun Be Real and
Speaker 3: you know at Church Trick's birthday parties and you know
Speaker 3: at his studio at the club, like tons of stories.
Speaker 3: So and I haven't even posted most of it. It's
Speaker 3: just drowning and content content. It's editing and time and
Speaker 3: you still want to live in the moment and be there.
Speaker 2: And it's a balance, man, It really is hard to
Speaker 2: like to big right, make sure I get the right
Speaker 2: amount of cuts for a recad, but also like not
Speaker 2: the whole time just cutting and editing or taking video
Speaker 2: the whole time. You know, it's really a balance, you know,
Speaker 2: especially with networking and being.
Speaker 3: Involved, right, and this whole definition of influencer. You know,
Speaker 3: you're your your own marketing manager, your photographer, your own editor.
Speaker 3: It's an endless list of all these things you are
Speaker 3: for yourself and all these partnerships and brands that you're
Speaker 3: involved with. It's just a juggling out vership, right, And
Speaker 3: most of us are just like, no, we just want
Speaker 3: to create. I don't want to do any of the
Speaker 3: rest of this, Like I just like your music, or
Speaker 3: I just want to be behind the camera.
Speaker 2: On and just create. It's fun because it's fun to create,
Speaker 2: though it makes it really hard when you have to
Speaker 2: then make it into like something digestible or make it
Speaker 2: something like for someone else, you know, because someone is
Speaker 2: when we're creating, it's for us. You know, a lot
Speaker 2: of times people think music's like they're out there just
Speaker 2: writing music for other people. Like, no, that's therapy for
Speaker 2: a lot of these musicians. You know, listen to every
Speaker 2: Taylor Swip song or Adele you know what I mean,
Speaker 2: there's some heart in there. People think it's like so
Speaker 2: I think when you're creating, it's for us, and then
Speaker 2: sometimes when social media brings this aspect that now it's
Speaker 2: for someone else, and it becomes difficult.
Speaker 3: This imposter syndrome thing starts to kick in.
Speaker 2: This poster syndrome is something I've suffered with for so
Speaker 2: it's real, You've talked about it, so just.
Speaker 3: Learning, go post, just put put it up there.
Speaker 2: It's crazy because you care so much that then you
Speaker 2: become insecure, which makes you second guests, which then makes
Speaker 2: you like, you know, like it back. We've heard so
Speaker 2: many stories of any like even growers, anyone creating anything.
Speaker 2: Like when you're it's just like you're like, I don't know.
Speaker 2: Like one of my good friends makes music and he
Speaker 2: kind of like really blew up with one of his videos.
Speaker 2: Some of his videos get going viral and he does
Speaker 2: them all the time, and he was like, you know,
Speaker 2: I didn't even you know this is I'm not gonna
Speaker 2: drop his name, but he's like, I didn't even feel
Speaker 2: like putt him out at first, you know, I was
Speaker 2: just like doing them do for fun, you know, and
Speaker 2: then someone else is like, yo, you got to put
Speaker 2: this out and then look at it now. So it's
Speaker 2: like it's funny how sometimes like as creators like sometimes
Speaker 2: listening to the outside sources, that's really how we are.
Speaker 2: You know. When I'm like, yay, your bud's fucking killer,
Speaker 2: He's like, yeah, it's all right, I guess, and then
Speaker 2: he's like, bro, you kill it on the sacks. I'm like, dude,
Speaker 2: I'm okay. Like it's just kind of like yeah, I
Speaker 2: mean again, okay, because I compare myself to the best
Speaker 2: sax players, right, You're like out here comparing yourself to
Speaker 2: Jay Breezy, right, And like I'm sure when you're making content,
Speaker 2: you're kind of comparing yourself to the people you look
Speaker 2: up to.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 2: So that's why the imposter syndrome is so funny, because
Speaker 2: those people were in our exact same spots, doing the
Speaker 2: exact same thing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's smiled. We all struggle with it though, and
Speaker 3: we're also more worried about what everyone else is thinking
Speaker 3: that you know, we're not. We're not judging others. So
Speaker 3: the same people are going through the same thing. We
Speaker 3: just need to get over ourselves out there.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So it's amazing what you guys have done with all
Speaker 3: this all out there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I'm sure you deal with it. There's
Speaker 2: a lot of things when you're dealing with cannabis industry
Speaker 2: stuff where it's like, you know, you get shadow band
Speaker 2: this week, or your content gets removed or yeah, and
Speaker 2: it's like where all these other businesses don't even have
Speaker 2: to worry about it, and they still struggle with social
Speaker 2: Like imagine struggling and socials giving you payton the whole time, and.
Speaker 1: You can run ads too easily. Other businesses, it's so different,
Speaker 1: Like there's so many loopholes. Like I'm starting to see
Speaker 1: Facebook or Meta whatever, yeah, letting cannabis or parents do it.
Speaker 1: But it's through like multi like it's not through their
Speaker 1: main accounts, like a sub one that looks like there's
Speaker 1: and it's showing a little of not a little bit,
Speaker 1: but just telling like a story and interesting.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're letting things kind of slide.
Speaker 2: Well, what I've seen is like I don't want to
Speaker 2: throw their name, but I've almost seen them kind of
Speaker 2: do like talking about like snacks are just kind of
Speaker 2: something funny, and then it's like clearly all their branding.
Speaker 1: And it's like and you can see the name on
Speaker 1: the you know, add on face meta. You see the
Speaker 1: name here and then here like on the adre Like okay, yeah, well.
Speaker 3: We need to normalize it somehow. And I mean once
Speaker 3: it changes federally on a more effective level, then maybe
Speaker 3: these community guidelines will.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we hope should the same thing with the federal stuff.
Speaker 2: That's why the you know, as much as we love deschedule,
Speaker 2: you know, completely like completely off, but like even the
Speaker 2: reschedule hoping hoping that would loosen up some of these
Speaker 2: loss Like is it silly that.
Speaker 1: The only thing I'm worries if they do like prescription
Speaker 1: and they just make it similar to prescription, because then
Speaker 1: that's just gonna oh yeah, no, that's going to be
Speaker 1: very bad. I was thinking about that too. That's not
Speaker 1: the good so well, I mean honestly, it's just like
Speaker 1: it's out of our it's out of our control. That's
Speaker 1: what sucks. And then like for us trying to create
Speaker 1: the content, you have to make sure that you're able
Speaker 1: to you have to make you have to really make
Speaker 1: a community to be able to continue to build because
Speaker 1: without without thank you all for you.
Speaker 2: Shout out to our partners Old Score or Gags High nine,
Speaker 2: our official drinks Kinship, and shout out cannas Workers Resource
Speaker 2: Shout all the fame love.
Speaker 3: Cannabis Resource Workers Resource. Stacey is my girl. I love
Speaker 3: what she's doing out there, and it was just mind
Speaker 3: blowing to me, like she caught my attention right away
Speaker 3: when I entered the social cannabis digital world, and because
Speaker 3: in the past I had actually been a victim of
Speaker 3: employee rights violations, so really and I was like, dang,
Speaker 3: this girl is got platforms, she's helping people, she already
Speaker 3: knows what's up, and I just connected with her so
Speaker 3: quickly and easily. I love that girl.
Speaker 2: Last time we were in Vegas, we kicked it like
Speaker 2: pretty much on and off the whole time.
Speaker 3: Yes, Yes, love that. I Gotta go out to Vegas
Speaker 3: you guys next time then, for sure. But it's just
Speaker 3: sad because even though I've been through it in the
Speaker 3: past in different industries, super lucky now now that especially
Speaker 3: that I know my rights been, it's behind me and
Speaker 3: I'm very blessed in the position I'm in now, but
Speaker 3: the problem is I see it in so many other
Speaker 3: parts of the industry. I'm in, you know, a half
Speaker 3: dozen group chats and text group group texts with other
Speaker 3: people in the industry, and there's constantly things going on
Speaker 3: with like harassment and discrimination and wage theft and misclassification
Speaker 3: of position and wrongful termination and denial of unemployment. Like
Speaker 3: it keeps going. So just major plug for her website,
Speaker 3: Cannabis Workers Resource dot Com for whatever state you're in,
Speaker 3: if you're having issues, go little menu, drop down policies
Speaker 3: by state, and it's really great resource.
Speaker 2: But I like if you give a partners, she's like,
Speaker 2: oh them. Especially when you get in Michigan too, Like
Speaker 2: we're talking about going these events, you kind of start
Speaker 2: to recognize people and just be like, oh okay, and
Speaker 2: you see them over and over. Because as much as
Speaker 2: it feels big when you're online, it's really not because
Speaker 2: the people who actually make because the people who really
Speaker 2: go above beyond and know every product and know when
Speaker 2: the hash drops are, know when the weed drops are, Like,
Speaker 2: that's a very smaller slice than all the people who
Speaker 2: just smoke, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the people that are active in either the culture,
Speaker 3: the community, the industry. You know, there's three little segments
Speaker 3: at all.
Speaker 2: And that's why I like the you know, campus workers
Speaker 2: research because it's like people don't even know she's thinking ahead,
Speaker 2: you're thinking about laborage, you're thinking about all the people
Speaker 2: in the grow all the things that people forget our
Speaker 2: industry because a lot of people are like grower, blood tender.
Speaker 2: It's like, well, there's a little bit more than that,
Speaker 2: especially when you're doing big grows. It's not like one grower,
Speaker 2: so the people don't know what they don't know.
Speaker 3: A lot of working parts.
Speaker 1: Yeah, growing on scales tough.
Speaker 3: And many people are wearing like multiple hats just to
Speaker 3: do doing multiple you know, half of the business operations makes.
Speaker 2: A lot of operators.
Speaker 1: It sounds like you wear multiple hats when you're when
Speaker 1: you were working.
Speaker 3: With I stay busy, so luckily being out in the field.
Speaker 3: I enjoy being out in the stores and seeing people
Speaker 3: and retail sales is always fun and gets me out
Speaker 3: of the office. But otherwise it's you know, checking in
Speaker 3: on accounts, wholesale accounts, and a lot of merch management,
Speaker 3: managing the apparel line and scheduling all the vendor days
Speaker 3: and getting all the promos together for all the visits,
Speaker 3: and you know, scheduling things like our launches and collabs
Speaker 3: with the Marley family we did a couple of years.
Speaker 2: I think that's why I say, was that at Tangent
Speaker 2: Gallery the four.
Speaker 1: Event yep, because I did not make it.
Speaker 3: That one was the fast it was good. Flavor. Flavor
Speaker 3: showed up so stage there. Yes, they had the leaf.
Speaker 1: Blower at that one. You definitely probably got.
Speaker 2: It was moked out, it was crazy. And I go

Speaker 1: the rest of the year and going into twenty twenty five?
Speaker 1: Any plans with now be doing more content, creating any
Speaker 1: cool things coming out with Heavyweighthead you could give out insight.
Speaker 3: Into Really this big collab with Endarrett Blunt next week
Speaker 3: on the thirtieth, is what like this past few months
Speaker 3: has been leading up to beyond that. I have no
Speaker 3: idea what's next. It could be a collab with the
Speaker 3: next NFL player. You know, we have a variety of people.
Speaker 2: That were I like, they all do collabse Yeah, a
Speaker 2: lot of because he's tied with music and just like
Speaker 2: a bunch of people, so something he just.
Speaker 3: Knows people lie in order is the collab with the
Speaker 3: Marley's and that actually originally was their brand for more
Speaker 3: of like a movement to bring awareness of the healing
Speaker 3: powers of cannabis into the professional sports world. And you know,
Speaker 3: we've launched it with them and it's hopefully going to
Speaker 3: launch New Jersey. So I just I just keep going
Speaker 3: with the flow. We have some collabs with Cookies, Cookies
Speaker 3: where the genetics provider for in state of Michigan recently.
Speaker 2: And recently that has got to be new because I
Speaker 2: know that's changed a bunch of times. I can't keep up.
Speaker 1: Oh really, so now you guys are growing.
Speaker 3: The cookies, not all of it, but we have a
Speaker 3: collab so a bunch of our strains and in some
Speaker 3: of our new releases are available in cookies bags that
Speaker 3: have our logo on them as well.
Speaker 1: Oh cool out.
Speaker 2: What are the strains on that?
Speaker 3: We have Batshit and San Trope which are crosses of
Speaker 3: gelato and some of our other You know, we have
Speaker 3: all these genetic experiments that the masterminds, the owner operators
Speaker 3: in charge of and those are exclusive at Cookies and
Speaker 3: it's also at Cookies in Nevada, in California, New Mexico
Speaker 3: and New Jersey.
Speaker 2: So I went to school get your name everywhere else and.
Speaker 3: It's all just a collab with them. So I got
Speaker 3: to go to New York and New Jersey off with
Speaker 3: truck and Willy J. Pays a few weeks back, and
Speaker 3: then last week the Boss took Rohan Marley and his
Speaker 3: son YG Marley and visited out there doing guest appearances,
Speaker 3: doing events out there, And so I usually get one
Speaker 3: to two week notice for these types of things. So
Speaker 3: I have no plans on the calendar, but it might
Speaker 3: be called to go somewhere and guess who knows.
Speaker 2: Always see it j Biscon. It's definitely. It's definitely fun
Speaker 2: and worth checking out because there's so many events that
Speaker 2: go on around it where the bits the biz kind itself.
Speaker 2: I feel like it's just like a fragment of it
Speaker 2: because a lot of the networking is done at the events,
Speaker 2: you know, or the smoking section literally just in the
Speaker 2: smoking section, which is funny. When we first went, they
Speaker 2: didn't care about the smoking section. Anyone would go there
Speaker 2: and people were just in the smoking section. They wouldn't
Speaker 2: buy badges. Now just to get in the smoking section,
Speaker 2: you have to have a badge. Yeah, they won't even
Speaker 2: let you smoke like on the side, like in the
Speaker 2: smoking section, and let's pay for a badgecause they know
Speaker 2: because they know that's what they're the networking like. It's
Speaker 2: a great time, and it's a lot of fun and
Speaker 2: even like sometimes you'll see like people out there like
Speaker 2: trying to sell bags, or there's just the trap events.
Speaker 2: Trap events are inviting you like, oh like these cheap buds. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it was like a bunch of Cali weed for like
Speaker 2: sixty dollars. Ounces were like tras. So it's just like
Speaker 2: the whole culture kind of like rushing to one spot
Speaker 2: to just meet me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's funny to see the industry develop and mature
Speaker 3: at different rates different states as they've legalized it. Because
Speaker 3: I lived in California in two thousand and six and eight,
Speaker 3: two and nine, and then Michigan twenty ten, but then
Speaker 3: back to Kelly twenty eleven, and then New Mexico twenty twelve,
Speaker 3: and then Colorado inwousy thirteen and fourties.
Speaker 1: You've been around, you were They just went legal in
Speaker 1: thirteen twelve, So I.
Speaker 3: Got to see it go legal in Colorado and then
Speaker 3: in California and then in Michigan. Came back to Michigan
Speaker 3: and Huston's.
Speaker 2: Nice for just like the good Luck Churm's, you move
Speaker 2: around the states once once you're through all fifty and
Speaker 2: come back real quick.
Speaker 3: I'm ready to go to I'm ready to move abroad
Speaker 3: like Spain or Germany.
Speaker 2: Do you travel?
Speaker 3: I have not, but I just got my passport rende,
Speaker 3: so I'm ready.
Speaker 1: Nice, nice, actually to Italy here in twenty nine days.
Speaker 3: Yes, where to?
Speaker 1: I am hitting Rome, Florence, Tuscany, Milan, Wow, and then
Speaker 1: something Island. I'm blinking on the name of it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have family out there.
Speaker 1: I have cousins in Gibrono. I have a Sorry.
Speaker 2: You're not watching the video. I love Vanage.
Speaker 3: No, no, I appreciate that.
Speaker 1: Yeah I do. Yeah, yeah, we do, we have. I'm
Speaker 1: hopefully we're gonna everything will work out.
Speaker 2: It's like so where it is, Like you know, I
Speaker 2: was never like a big travel guy, but it's definitely
Speaker 2: worth it.
Speaker 1: Yeah. He just went to Ireland this year for.
Speaker 2: Family stuff like that's I think it's it's very fun, like,
Speaker 2: especially what he's doing, you're kind of chasing down roots
Speaker 2: and it's just it's such a different culture shock when
Speaker 2: you go somewhere else and you come here, especially like
Speaker 2: again cannabis laws, Like I didn't ring we obviously, but
Speaker 2: I went there and my mom smelled it. I couldn't
Speaker 2: even smell it. That's what's funny. She smelled a spliff.
