Whether you’re a business owner, activist, or simply curious about the future of cannabis, this episode is packed with informative and thought-provoking insights.
Hey. So what's happening, everybody? It turns out that we don't know who's running for president anymore, or which party is better for legalization, and did you know that maybe six years ago they legalized weed? If you're a subscriber and a member of the channel, yeah, you probably knew about THCA a while ago because of the hemp bill. We have a litany of news that we were ready to go over before Joe Biden decided to step down, and so we're still going to go over the news, but there may be a lot of well, what does this mean? Or what does that mean? That goes on for it. However, we have federal cannabis legalization news and a lot more. So thank you so much for joining us, especially if you are a member of the channel and if it's your first time, cool Welcome. We're going to go over everything that happened to cannabis legalization for this week. Let's dive into it.
Speaker 1:We're getting there.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, we need secret languages where it's like I go like that and then this thing hits but boy, that was a Harris Sanders 2024. No, I think it's going to be Harris Kelly or Harris Fetterman, and so that's who I would pick. But did you know that Congress accidentally legalized weeds six years ago with the Farm Bill? This is out of the Atlantic. This is how much they do not care about your industry, when we've been talking about it for years and I've done. Some of the most popular YouTube videos are about it. Did they reference me? Of course they didn't reference me. Nobody gives a fuck about me. I've known that for years. But but you know, congress accidentally legalizing weed six years ago. We've been just yammering about incessantly, but you know, with the shadow band, eh, you're not going to get your voice out. People don't care about weed.
Speaker 1:I'm the kind of person that doesn't digest a lot of things. You know, when someone makes fun of you and it takes you a day to come back like fuck. I have a comeback With this whole law because you've been talking about this since the six years you said Congress accidentally legalized weed right and now, post facto, six years later, you can look back and see these industries that people farmers, hemp farmers, right Under the guise of hemp right, there's been this whole industry with drinks and lotions and smokables. That's the one that gets me so. There's a whole industry where you can order Delta 9, tac, whatever online and get some flour, quarter pound, whatever. And you've been talking about this Like I didn't really see that coming. Like I didn't see people selling bags of weed right. Like when we were at MJ Biz that one dude had a pound and he was walking around and gave us a little sample.
Speaker 2:Yeah yeah, he had a pound in a clear backpack, so he's not smuggling anything he's not supposed to have in there. And then it's. It's like one of those things where it's like, hey, don't worry, it's THCA hemp and you're like, so it's weed.
Speaker 1:Yeah, well, that's the thing, right. So late to the game me, am I, am I digesting a policy, but though not so late where I say, once these rescheduling happens, we still have to work on the, the hemp, uh, cannabis, baby chimp. Right, there's gotta be the rule.
Speaker 2:well, that was. That was that? Yeah, yeah, we, hopefully I got that in there, and so I didn't. I didn't get a chance to review that stuff because I was working on a video about opening a dispensary and boy did I have a hard week. I tell you, I have one of those faces you just want to sue, and so a couple of people were well, no one cares about my personal life, it's all about cannabis legalization news. And so the thing was that Normal is responsible for between 10 and 15% of the 30,000 plus public comments that have happened, which closes tomorrow, and so we'll find that link during this broadcast later and we'll make sure to share it for the people that join us on live chat.
Speaker 2:Shout out to everybody who's joining us on live chat thanks for telling people to tune in and put it on in your dispensary, like that's going to be one of the things that we are going to design in our waiting room, it being like, high at nine is in the live chat. Uh, his channel will be on there and so, like, we're not going to like, we're not going to have cable, we're just going to have YouTube and we're going to have, like our subs. That we'll have, we'll pro cannabis media high at nine. Cannabis legalization news kind of cribs the growers. There's so many great growers channels that are out there and then you know, we'll just have those going on in our waiting room. But we're still like, did you know that Chuck E Cheese is considered a school in my city? What, oh, because of our zoning issues, chuck E Cheese, this is a real business issue.
Speaker 1:It's a real thing.
Speaker 2:Do you know who does not have to deal with that?
Speaker 1:Hound Liquor store. Oh, that's right.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and again, you don't have to get a special use permit.
Speaker 1:I know what you're getting with. What Tom's referring to is we have a license. It's a weird world now, dude. I'm actually talking to people with money, about thinking about how to work into this plant, the industry. You've got the laws on the side, I've got the test and measurement side. I think I can do a viable thing once things happen. But just the whole license, trying to get the property location. And you're right, like you even said, there are people in your state who sell hemp, and and I'm about to say an unpopular thing, because I've been thinking about, uh, this conversation we're about to have that you're probably not gonna be happy, but I'm saying, if you need it, go buy that hemp, go buy that d9, go buy them out now, because and if you're in hemp though, I'd be thinking about pivoting because the d3 scheduling is coming- I'd get out, yeah, yeah, uh, if you're in hemp, like if you have a, it's a dual pronged fuck you tactic.
Speaker 2:And again, this, this fuck you tactic, welcome to the fuck you tactic of the cannabis industry. Uh, and so, like, chuck the cheese is a school and hemp is no longer what you thought it was not. Yet, however, they've taken the farm bill, what they think that they may not be able to pass this year. And then they, they also did the, uh, the appropriations, and so they have to fund the government, and so it's. You're just kind of screwed like you, you, you lose or you lose, and, and the only thing that's really hanging up, the issue has nothing to do with hemp, which they, they thought was supposed to be about industry and CBD, and it turned out that you just wanted to sell weed. So, like my, my, my fiance comes back from Chicago and she was at this, this event over the weekend with her friends, and they were selling, like, hemp gummies ripped off to make them look like their other types of candies, like nerds and skittles and whatnot.
Speaker 2:500 milligram packages meat but no copyright violations, trademark infringement and also, uh, selling weed without a license under the, the loophole that is, I'm selling hemp, and then they don't have a license, they don't have the zoning, they don't have the permits, they aren't paying the taxes. You know, one of the things that we're going to do one of the reasons why they want us in Peoria if they want us in Peoria or anywhere in Illinois is we're going to use our give back is hiring a grant writer to get that R3 money. Did you know what R3 money is?
Speaker 2:People don't know, what R3 money is R3 money? There's 30 to $40 million in this pot of money to reinvest in the hardest impacted areas of the state, and so we'll have somebody whose job is to write grants to get that R3 money and help build up Peoria in that area, because they're going to put the money back into these disproportionately impacted areas so that they can. You know, it's just the subterfuge that has been hemp. I'm glad that it's going to add yeah, they've done more damage than they know.
Speaker 1:I don't know about damage, though you know it's more of like putting a toothpaste out of the tube Right, like like now that people like oh, I like him, dude. I just saw a commercial on TV yesterday for have you heard of this brand, hemp Vonna? No. On TV yesterday for have you heard of this brand, hemp, vonna no.
Speaker 1:So this is like a again another, the writing off of the, the regulation of hemp itself. There's this brand, and so I have high blood pressure and I have other you know things. I'm finding out that in a body hurts, and so I found out the other day that ibuprofen is bad for high blood pressure and possibly me. And so I found out the other day that ibuprofen is bad for high blood pressure and possibly me, and that's what I've been taking from my pigs and things. But on this commercial I see it advertised like uh, uh, you know, does not, uh, harm blood pressure, and that's a big sell, you know, as a medicinal type thing for for pain treatment and but. But this is people riding off of that hemp thing where rescheduling has to happen. We have to say, look, this plant is medicine, it does the things we do, but it's also a good Friday night.
Speaker 2:Yes, but the THC is also medicinal in the way itself. Rescheduling if we can get it done, the problem with rescheduling is okay. Are they going like suing biden now over the 25th amendment because he's not going to seek re-election? Are they going to put out the public comment period ends tomorrow and um and so get those public comments? I'm sure that everybody's tuning in has already gotten their public comments in. Please do not waste their time by telling them that they should completely deschedule. That is beyond their authority. It's just kind of like.
Speaker 2:When I see that stuff, I'm like you clearly have never dealt with like a regulated industry where the regulators will do what they're allowed to do, and so they're asking them to do more than they can, which that's great. Now you're just you're being an advocate, you're being an activist, you're trying to live in not reality, but fantasy land that you want to be reality, and so, like we don't know what's going to happen with this election 75% chance it's going to be Donald Trump and then 25 chance to be the, the democrats. So they really have until january 20th to put the final rule that out there and say it's schedule three, hemp is dead and or. But I hope they kind of pick up the hemp because, like, there's a place somewhere on it where, uh, in those cannabinoids they aren't designed to get you high where they are. And I hope that that's like that's delineating factor, because most of the hemp like if it's a 20 billion dollar industry, 19 billion dollars of it is getting you high well, your, your doom and gloom is killing me, dude.
Speaker 1:I don't think it's that high of an odds Just because you see big rallies type weird shit.
Speaker 2:He took a bullet for democracy. Hey look, Trump's already beaten at least one woman.
Speaker 1:Okay, but just to say what the worst timeline. Okay, but just to say fuck, what the worst timeline we are in. But also a baked potato would beat this man right now.
Speaker 2:Right now. The reason why he is the oldest person, Trump is now Biden. He's too old.
Speaker 1:Yeah, well, not just that dude, I mean, it's anybody's, anybody, morals, right, like one's on epstein island and the other one never was. Like there's these things that like, who do you want to represent you? Hell, we even had four years already and that was no bueno, right, like people are like oh, my paycheck was better. How you know? You tell me, you convinced me how. Why? Uh, the world was better off with the other guy. This guy's got infrastructure going on. This guy has he's doing the job. Like right now there's no big moment.
Speaker 2:And that was the thing that really pissed me off is that they didn't coalesce around a team where they could have said, like we are a team and yeah, he's our guy, and if he's not there she's ready to take over. And so at any time that he needs to step down, you know kamala debbie harris would be ready to take over. Because then it really kind of uh contrasts that that donald trump has no team. Nobody wants to work with him. Nobody wants to work with him. The last guy he picked to be vice president hates him because he tried to get him killed. You know you can't say no one wants to work with him.
Speaker 1:What you can say, though, is bad people want to be vice president, hates him because he tried to get him killed. You can't say no one wants to work with him. What you can say, though, is bad people want to work with him. This whole party has no moral type concept. It turned into the WWF. Oh, thank God, we need a break.
Speaker 2:Oh, yes, everybody. Kill the fuck out. We'll talk about some more news once we get back from this beautiful break brought to you by Collateral Bass. Check out this shit, bro. Legacy plan, legacy plan, legacy plan, that's it. This is what Miggy and I are going to be able to give you guys. We cannot.
Speaker 2:And so, like, we're in the talks about what we're going to call the dispensary and I'm like, well, look, name of the city dispensary. It works for SEO, and here's why you're not allowed to advertise your brand. And so, like anybody who wants to start a weed brand, I go stop it. You're not going to get anywhere online, you're going to get flagged, you're going to get shadow banned, you're going to get shut down, they're going to delete your account because you're trying to advertise a weed brand.
Speaker 2:But with LegacyPlanco, we can advertise the brand. That is the marketing. And so this is something that we kind of spitballed. And then Verano may have watched the show and launched Cabbage Club. And so our legacy plan the reason why you would want to join our software as a service or our subscription-based business model marketing service is the funds from legacy plan will go to writing the grants for the R3 program, so we're literally building back Illinois, while you are able to find and get great deals at a participating location and so you link out to the participating location. You can't advertise weed, but I'm pretty sure we can buy Facebook ads for that.
Speaker 1:Oh dude, once the store opens up, I mean it's going to be a whole new avenue of content.
Speaker 2:You got to start selling before, like with these models and stuff, I can't tell you how much it's going to make with reasonable certainty until I know where it is, and then after that you have to bring down. The more you can bring off, offset your, your marketing costs. You're not allowed to do any of your marketing costs and so if you can like just kind of move that, that off the books and push up your inventory costs, you avoid your 280 E stuff. So, like, high nines, like, oh, interesting Cause, like he's, he's got a, he's got a shop in SoCal and and and so we would have these participating locations and this is your give back, and so like we then also use that for your community outreach, and so for us we're going to be able to have a cashflow that's off the books, that doesn't have to play.
Speaker 2:Yeah, fuck that noise. Thca needs to go back in the goddamn woodshed. And so, like THCA needs to be weed just like anybody else. I mean, I am sick and tired of the hemp industry getting a free pass when it comes to being a regulated industry, and it's supposed to be about industry fiber fuel. It's not supposed to be about getting you high. That's not what Congress voted for and look what you guys have done. They know they're coming after you and they don't like you, they don't like me. You know well, look a chuck of cheese is a school.
Speaker 1:But you know, one of the most annoying things that happened when, when the Farmville happened and hemp became a thing was to me that the angles of people, because we're always trying to find an angle Right To legally do things, because I saw full spectrum.
Speaker 2:I never went to loophole class. I didn't go to a lot of classes in law school. I went to enough to make sure that I was honored to graduate, so I graduated with honors, but still I also graduated with honors. Anyway, it's one of those where anytime that I ever get a client, prospective client, that wants to do something pursuant to some type of canary or loophole, I remind them that there's the door.
Speaker 1:Well, I mean you're going to come in after the fact, right? Because somebody with that kind of money to do a loophole, you got to do it right.
Speaker 2:If you don't do it right, you're, you're just, it's just like why are you going to make? You're going to have to make the same expense anyway, and so why are you going to jeopardize that expense? Because you're going to expose yourself to regulatory overreach and regulatory sanction and those regulators have original jurisdiction over your ass, not the courts you can't go looking for.
Speaker 1:like, if we made a contract to sell our license, I get that dismissed but here's the thing, though, right Like I know the loophole thing as a lawyer, it makes you like wiggle a little bit, because that's to me everything's about a hack or loophole or trying to figure out the easy way, right.
Speaker 2:No, you're in standards and like regulations.
Speaker 1:Well, that's what I understand.
Speaker 2:Can you imagine how pissed off you?
Speaker 1:would be if someone came in and said I'm trying to to the young trappers. It's not about the whole runts thing. It's cool that these young kids, maybe somebody had a dig and did breed out some good stuff, but then it became this whole. We're the culture, we trap, we got all of our what are they after?
Speaker 2:What are those young trappers after, besides their own gratification and wealth?
Speaker 1:That's what I'm trying to say.
Speaker 2:When you create a business, but that's not this game, right.
Speaker 1:It's not business.
Speaker 2:That's the other thing. Those young trappers need to realize that that's not that is a very narrow, myopic and selfish game.
Speaker 1:It's not regular.
Speaker 2:The hustle is the hustle, but it selfish game, it's not regulated. The hustle is the hustle, but it doesn't mean it's just you.
Speaker 1:The hustle is the whole city. This is kind of what we're working on with the store, because that would fund the next level things. But this is what is the regulated market. This is what legalization is right now, and rescheduling it could enable everybody in every state. Right, this would be a thing that would be like the even plateau. But the people riding off of the THC angle right now it's just because they were able to right. There's no one enforcing that rule. The rule is going to come.
Speaker 2:It's going to come.
Speaker 2:Who do you think is going to bring it more project 2025 or calm on the gang? Uh, because, like we have the democratic party touting reform, uh actions, but declining to endorse decrim in their 2024 platform. Where is trump's 2024 platform on cannabis? Because, according to the Marijuana Moment, on July 17th the Democrats put out their platform, which again is kind of like the NFL telling you when they're going to play games. It's a nonprofit organization telling you what they're about. Sending people to prison for possession has upended too many lives and incarcerated people for conduct that many states no longer prohibit. This is the quote from the DNC platform. Those criminal records impose needless barriers to employment, housing and educational opportunities, disproportionately impacting black and brown people, but they don't ask for its full decriminalization.
Speaker 1:But you know they have the ball rolling. They're the ones doing the goddamn job right now, like they put up the records.
Speaker 2:Joe Biden has done more for legalizing weed than any other president, and that is a historical fact.
Speaker 1:Seriously, though I mean like, yay, the hemp bill is cool, but it just showed people that this plant doesn't jump out and bite you. It just showed people, no, the hemp bill is not cool.
Speaker 2:I mean like it is not cool to create fraud. That's not cool. It's not cool to defraud people to your own benefit and money and then have no ability to say that what you did was wrong that's not cool, it's.
Speaker 1:It's not fraud, though, because they're not. I mean, really, it's on the consumer. This isn't the whole thing about legalization. It's all about the end user, and you hope things are in there being protected for you, like lab testing and preventative ingredients for the plant. When it comes to pesticides, Nobody wants Eagle 22. If you do, I guess you're weird. I don't know, but like, uh, there should be a base standard of safety and everything that we're all trying to look for when it comes to, like, legalization, right, and then that means regulation, which is the rules, right? We? I think sometimes you guys over the rules, yeah we need the rules and so like.
Speaker 2:That's what scheduleule 3 is and that's what we hope that Schedule 3 is going to be. State marijuana regulators are pushing for feds to explain how rescheduling will impact enforcement, banking, research and more. This is, of course, canra. They put out a new letter. Do I have a link to the letter, or am I just going to be again plugging marijuana moment? The only well it's not the only Goodness. I don't want to get emails. It's one of the best, a wonderful resource for cannabis policy publications. They will not put very like clear links to their sources, though, because they want you to read their ads.
Speaker 2:Wow, everything's about. I just want the original source. I just want the original source. There it is. It's at the very bottom, don't? Forget to go to the original source at the very bottom. Uh, this is out of Canara. Canara and I, we need to have more conversations. We should have somebody from there on the show. Yeah, tamara. And.
Speaker 1:I. We need to have more conversations.
Speaker 2:We should have somebody from there on the show, the regulators, people with the original jurisdiction. Guidance is needed for how federal policies, including enforcement priorities, will change under the proposed rescheduling. That would be great, wouldn't that be nice? Can you imagine drafting that article, or a section of a particular article, like subtitled regulations? That's what we need. We need laws, and Congress has not made these effing laws because they don't care about you, the cannabis people.
Speaker 1:They don't have the knowledge base. This is how you make things happen. Is you have organizations?
Speaker 2:that gather around. It's a stigmatized thing. You're a minority. Again, if 80% of the people aren't, you, are you a minority. Welcome to the 20%.
Speaker 1:I think we're like a hidden minority though, because I don't think as much as it used to be predominantly. You'd be ashamed of even in, say, kentucky. I'd be scared to mention that I'd be having weed. But it's kind of like with the recent Republican Party how they crashed Grindr Right. Most people probably do consume cannabis. So I'm saying like yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:But like the thing is, while that stigma is there, you might have a lot of friends, but those friends are going to be quiet because they got jobs, they got kids, they got shit going on, and so that vocalness won't be there until the stigma gets away. And it's not going to. If you get into Schedule 3 and you can force a conversation in Idaho, if you could force a conversation in Idaho, iowa or Indiana, did you know there's four states that begin with I, and three of them are terrible on weed policy. And then there's where I live, illinois, and so those are the four I's and three out of four I's suck. And if you could force a conversation there about weed at a federal level, saying it's schedule three, this is a huge win.
Speaker 2:That the marijuana legalization activists like piousness, public just doesn't get where. They're like hey, we've done more than it's been done in 50 years, but it ain't enough. So fuck it. And you're like bro, take the win. And then like like let's, let's scale this. Like let's get this win, let's mix of rules that we need and say that's not enough. We know that's not enough, but give us a framework to build from, don't just try to go on to the next one without a plan. No, this issue is so unique.
Speaker 1:And where does?
Speaker 2:GA rank. In your eyes, ga is like they suck man, they're like one of those. If we were like, breaking us up into deciles, you're in the lowest Well, probably not the lowest, because that would only be five states. And so, like you would be like in the second lowest decile Well, no, 10%, yeah, 50. So five states. And then Iowa, indiana, south Carolina. Yeah, okay, iowa, indiana, south Carolina. It's not that great.
Speaker 1:It's bad. I would say Georgia bad, yeah, any southern state. Unfortunately, I hate to say, kentucky's doing good.
Speaker 2:Kentucky's can out of all the southern states, and I'm sorry if Kentucky doesn't consider itself in the south out of all the southern states that I'm sorry if Kentucky doesn't consider itself in the south Out of all the southern states that have rolled out a medical cannabis program outside of Florida, which I'm not counting. Kentucky is doing great.
Speaker 1:They got rules happening. That's the thing about this plant this topic is. It's not as much as everybody tells you it's going to be a right-left issue. It's not. Most people do consume. Most Americans don't care about what you do, but it's still a point where if you were fighting breast cancer and you had a YouTube channel, no one would care about your job and everything else. But if you talk about weed, this could affect your actual livelihood. If I was a trucker, I would have to wear a mask, maybe augment my voice. You know that's the kind of the conflict this plant, this topic has this issue where, like you're saying, most people can't talk about it, most people can't speak up or, you know, like you said, talk to ohio all the eyes yeah, well, we can go to ohio.
Speaker 2:We have ohio news which is still waiting ohio, uh, you can go to a fish concert. Or you can just go to the source and and go to the talking heads uh, cross-eyed and painless, still waiting. Is ohio for its first legal sales? Uh, ohio, still waiting. It's only been three weeks, not that bad. But it comes to show they don't care about you, they don't.
Speaker 1:Well, so this wackadoodle, I mean, where does he stand? I know that he did come, so among my activist networks he did appear at a normal meeting. There was a time and place where he actually stood for legalization or some sort of it.
Speaker 2:Well, imagine this world with this particular politician. But you could abstract that politician like we were trying to make a politician object in C++ or something. One of the characteristics of that person would be affirmation seeking to benefit me and so like, how does this benefit me? And it may have benefit him at the time to do it. Cannabis is quite popular. It was legalized by the people and the people of Ohio, where he is a senator, and so like he has to have his pulse on, like what his it's a Senate whole state, and so he has to have his pulse on what his it's a senate whole state. And so the state passed it. Quite popular. State wants to do it more business. But did you remember praying in church?
Speaker 1:I don't know where this guy is going to stand. He called Trump a Hitler like two years ago, and now he's like in bed with him.
Speaker 2:But the topic it's back to the original thing. You can always know that he's going to stand in whatever benefits him JD Vance, the most. Well, both of them. And so that's kind of you just have to do the experiment in your head and go what's going to benefit him the most. He's going to do that. So, like, politicians like this are extraordinarily easy to get rid of if you have $11 billion.
Speaker 1:They're like amoebas right. Him and Trump are probably like suck-facing together because they're both flexible. No, no, they wouldn't suck-face.
Speaker 2:They would suck-face if it benefited both of them. Exactly One of them was not getting benefited by that sucking of the face, they would stop it. They'd say that face sucking was the worst thing that ever happened, or like apologize, say it was wrong, and then try to move on to like whatever is the best thing that would benefit them again.
Speaker 1:Well, according to this article, he opposed the Banking Act and he's silent on legalization, even though he has appeared at normal convention or meetings. What about Kentucky?
Speaker 2:You know who may end up being the Supreme Court, not the Supreme Court you may end up being. You just take two. You know who may end up being the vice president for the Democrats Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear. There is a interesting story with him from this past week out of the Associated Press and he has endorsed federal efforts to reclassify marijuana as a less dangerous drug. If you want to see what Schedule may look like nationwide, kentucky is putting on a clinic talking to you, minnesota, yeah well, and then I want to say, like he's just staying kentucky because they need him, but that's the thing, yeah, and so like if they had some senators or something.
Speaker 2:So like in pennsylvania's governor is a Shapiro, so do you think they're going to vote for like a minority female and a Jew ticket? Come on and so, but then again, like who knows, I think Buttigieg, buttigieg.
Speaker 2:And so like we have to have, because he also brings certain minority potential to the ticket. But he's doing the job. That's the whole thing about Mike. Yeah, but then think about again it doesn't matter, like you don't matter. Thank you for tuning in. Don't forget to like and subscribe. You don't matter, but your likes do, just trying to make a force. Yeah, your likes matter. I'm just trying to make a point in the sense that I am cynical and there's like six states that matter in the presidential election in 2024, one of which is Arizona, another one is Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania's governor is Shapiro I cannot remember the Democrats governor of Arizona so they also have senators that they could donate. So you could donate Senator Mark Kelly from Arizona, or you could donate Senator John Fetterman from Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania is worth a little bit more than Arizona, but Arizona's got X factors going on for it In a sense that Mark Kelly is a warrior, he's an astronaut. His wife is Gabby Giffords, so like we have gun control aspects as well and he's a senator from Arizona.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm not sure about that.
Speaker 2:But stay tuned, we're going to do some name match training soon.
Speaker 1:Oh, yeah, no, but that's going to be a thing that happens. It's out of our hands right Watching two grandpas fight and then you're waiting for the one who's like, like, honestly, dude, all the, all the haranguing of this man that's been going down for the past. Like you know, it's been two weeks since we last chatted. It seems like six months, right, like I totally forgot. Reagan got shot at because he wanted, uh, the person was trying to oppress jane, jay or um, uh, yeah it was completely nuts.
Speaker 2:It was completely nuts why reagan got shot.
Speaker 1:The world we live in, though, people are speculating like Biden did it. Well, technically, they just argued that presidents have supreme power anyway, so why the fuck does that matter in a conversation when you're talking about the guy getting shot at? It just sucks Like yeah, that shouldn't happen.
Speaker 2:I mean, I might have shared some jokes, but this is the discourse in civil society that you don't want right, yeah, but there was a great onion article after uh trump had uh taken one for democracy in the year and and it was an onion headline like nation fails to account for its 393 million firearms. Like you know, where was the security threat there, bro? You, you know, and again, it's the weird ass timeline.
Speaker 1:This two weeks it seemed like six months, but Michigan Don't forget tomorrow.
Speaker 2:Tomorrow you have to get, you do the story. I'll pull up the thing that happens tomorrow.
Speaker 1:Alright. So the Michigan senator Is trying to pass the DUBI Act that protects federal job applicants with past marijuana use. I hate the acronym thing, you know I do, but you know this is what they go for. This is what they try and do. You know, coming from the Green Market Report last week, the Michigan Democrat introduced legislation to limit federal agencies from using past consumption of marijuana as a factor in hiring or achieving security clearances. I mean, it's a great bill, it's a uh. So the doobie stands for dismantling outdated obstacles and barriers to individuals employment act.
Speaker 2:God damn though it's pretty, that's pretty cool, I mean, but like I just don't like when you spend more time on naming your bill than getting it out of committee.
Speaker 1:But the problem is the words.
Speaker 2:Actually, there's very few problems. We need open primaries and so if we have open primaries, all of the chicanery ends no-transcript. Have this open primary to pick the top three that'll vote against, to then pick the top one, so you don't have separate primaries. That only picks Captain Cuckoo Bananas, right, because those are the only people that when you do like I have to identify for a primary, you get Captain Cuckoo Bananas. And so for more on Captain Cuckoo Bananas, check out the squad, or Sarah Palin, or Marjorie Taylor Greene or any one of those real weirdos that's in Congress.
Speaker 2:Probably happened because it was a closed primary so you have to self identify and they gerrymandered the crap out of the areas so that you have to. Uh, the only thing you have to do is beat the in the the primary and you're guaranteed the seat. Now, if you make it open, in the sense that there's the candidates, so they're going to kind of cleave toward democrat republican, because we do, and so one of the democrats should make it into the last three, and so it stops you from going to like Captain Cuckoo Bananas and goes centric for all Americans. Can you imagine that strange little, that little nuance of mechanics, from having hundreds of thousands of elections.
Speaker 1:You couldn't have known that data inventing democracy in 1776 and shit well, if we could just also get rid of the electoral vote, that'd be, you know, like, like, let real. Will the people happen? Opposed to like the 11 lucky motherfuckers that get to actually just pick. Like, how is it 11? It's a very small number. We're just like or no it's per se.
Speaker 2:It's like seven states that matter.
Speaker 1:It's like seven states like and then they're pretty easy to name because it's it's Persia.
Speaker 2:It's like seven states that matter. And then they're pretty easy to name because it's Georgia, and that one's really not one of the main ones. The main ones are Pennsylvania, michigan, wisconsin. Those three states control our country.
Speaker 1:Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2:Michigan, wisconsin, and then after that it's like Nevada and then Arizona, and then you get into like North Carolina and Georgia. Even Florida's gone more conservative Than you think and so like if you're just going to take those Off the table by a statistically significant. I'm a political scientist, I do have a degree in that. It's that one One of them. I'm a political scientist, I do have a degree in that, it's that one One of them, that one, yeah, I promise you Like a sweater? Right Totally, we should probably name that stream.
Speaker 1:Take a little break.
Speaker 2:Hey, let's look at what I like to say. Let's check out what we're fighting for everybody. There you go, there you go yeah.
Speaker 1:Let's check out what we're fighting for everybody. There you go, there you go, yeah, t-t-h-c-c-c, t-t-h-c-c. I like that little flip. That was good. New edits, new intro that's pretty dope.
Speaker 2:Yep, I took down something that we'll put into a name that strain later for humbled seed company and so if you want and if you have a seed company and want to sponsor name that strain, you should reach out to will at cannabis legalization newscom, will at canvas legalization newscom if you want to sponsor the name that strain spot.
Speaker 1:So this is a hybrid marijuana strain. Uh, noted for Small density. Are they all hybrid technically? I guess on that You're right.
Speaker 2:Super nerd, but other triploids. Let's get Chad to weigh in on that. Triploids are those a hybrid, or is that something totally different?
Speaker 1:Let's see what else we got. Indulge with caution. This hybrid is known for its potency, but what potency? It has a low, medium, high range, thc Meaning how many effects.
Speaker 2:Colorado Seed Go. Actually, I apologize, that is an incorporation. Colorado Seed Incorporation is the strain maker, and they said that this hybrid has a hazy aura that engulfs mind and body. So watch out for it. Indulge with caution, as it will also be known for its potency Boy that just doesn't say much while saying something it doesn't. It's also been known as it's hard to track down, so don't miss an opportunity to try this strain if you're going to get your hands on it. Do we even have parents? No, we do not. This type of stuff makes me wonder who is this seed company and do they owe somebody money?
Speaker 2:They don't even have a legal profile.
Speaker 1:The name is so long so I can't even think of a witty way of hints.
Speaker 2:Well, that's also some of the crap that I have is the I don't know what. I don't know. There's just not a lot of data that I can give you, and so, like usually, if it's like some type of like I can give you parents, like we can, we can then also give like Turkey and profiles.
Speaker 1:This one is just it's like a 70s song there you go.
Speaker 2:It's like a 70s Colorado seeds Inc. Colorado seeds Inc. You try to click on their link on Leafly and you get redirected to Leafly. So I guess they aren't paying Leafly no more.
Speaker 1:And a song by the Starland Vocal Band.
Speaker 2:Starland Vocal Band. Oh my God, this would sell more if you called it Starland Vocal Band.
Speaker 1:Oh, so close.
Speaker 2:That's how yeah.
Speaker 1:We'll just give it to them.
Speaker 2:You can just give it to them. After Glow Octane pretty close.
Speaker 1:Afternoon Delight. So many names out there.
Speaker 2:Afternoon Delight. Unknown hybrid marijuana strain from Colorado Seed. Co. Ink, my bad Ink.
Speaker 1:So you know, more of the news that we have to cover is related to, I think, like the. Well, the next one is the scheduling we talked about before. Oh no, we can skip that then okay, uh, do we want to do the well? 30 000 comments have been submitted so far, so add more.
Speaker 2:Yes let's do it.
Speaker 2:30 000 comments we got clearly and don't forget to add that. And that's where, like we did a post earlier in the community section, nice, this link is responsible for over 10% of public comments to the DEA. That link, I'm going to copy it and also open it in a new tab for you guys, so that, oh, don't you, don't you know how that goes. And so there it is. Tell Biden that cannabis doesn't belong. Tell the DEA that cannabis doesn't belong in Schedule 1. And then I will drop that into the comments for the good. Approximately 300 people joining us on the live feed for this Sunday, july 21st.
Speaker 1:No, we're getting there, man. I mean again the you know what, it's your last day.
Speaker 2:If you are, you know, one of those people that procrastinates, this is it. It's the last day.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but this is how things happen too. This is how America works. This is how the process Fuck, it's not fun, it's not sexy. Just like we were talking about earlier with Canra. We have these regulator bodies of people who see experiences of the consumer. They try and draw a line, even though a lot of the See to sell, I think, is an idiotic regulatory part. I mean, it's part of business, but it shouldn't be part of the government trying to see like, oh, you know where all your shit's at.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't think we need to do seed to sale, but, like when you get into the Controlled Substances Act and when you get into, like what the international tree obligations, say, yes, you need it Because, like, you have to say that you're compliant with this shit, or congress has to do its job, and so that's kind of the position that america is in right now. If you want to make, unless you're going to say, like the king can do what the king wants, which ain't the truth.
Speaker 2:You know, if you want to say that you're compliant with the law, you know you have to live within the bounds of the law and so, like moving into schedule three with the biden administration, that was the biggest thing that's ever been done for cannabis legalization ever, yeah, well, because now they're creating something in the bounds of that law that allows you to get to that next level. But you know like congress can do its job, but they don't know how to. They're asking that because we have Captain Cuckoo Bananas in charge, and so Captain Cuckoo Bananas is just trying to get on TV and then win the primary, that's it. And then they have it and it was about doing things. We might have a different kind of approach to how things get done and Congress might be like here is a comprehensive regulatory scheme to create cannabis licenses federally and here's how it will work.
Speaker 1:That's the problem, though. You need to unify these. How many people are in Congress? 115?, 120?
Speaker 2:435 in one chamber and 100 in the other.
Speaker 1:Okay, so you have to get in the lower chamber, but then you have the other chamber and again getting all these guys, people, all on the same page, to say look everybody, this is a common policy and this is what lobbying is right. That's what it's about. It's somebody who goes hey, we have X amount of senators and governors in our book. Cannabis has never had that right. Billion trillion dollars spent against the plant and the plant's still winning.
Speaker 2:Still winning.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so rescheduling it is definitely the essential part of creating the regulatory framework. So what you were saying before about the, the THCV and the Delta nine and all that stuff and it got you upset. You're like they shouldn't be doing this. But see, the thing is they don't have a regulatory path, right Like you can do whatever the fuck you want now because no one's, no one cares what is on. I'm reading 0.03 below, but that's dumb. 0.03 below, that's dumb. That's just a dumb way to regulate. And look at this plant. It's a plant. It should be observed after it's harvested. What are you doing with it? Part of my problem with why C to sell is so bad. And you're right, it's got to be in line with the DEA stuff, the DEA also.
Speaker 1:I worked at a facility one time that makes topical cocaine, right like the. They have top security, all the stuff that I had to go through, and then you know we do our business. But I was mystified when they told me they were allowed to lose like 20 product like, like, like, just for tips. No, well, there's like, there's like legit. Like you know, with the chemical process and things being made, you know there's always Excuses for things. Right, there's Some shrinkage, stringage, there's a point for every Product, everything out there, where people like I just fucking don't know more, or he's our best fucking scientist, we gotta let him Take a kilo home once a week, or whatever. I don't know what the issue Is, but these things happen and uh, the seed to sell for a regulatory part is just kind of dumb, like like like, at least for the plant in my opinion.
Speaker 2:But uh, you need some tracking. You need some tracking, then, and so like, with alcohol, right, they really aren't doing seed to sale for, like, all the grains that comprise the alcohol, right. Then, when it leaves the facility to go to the consumer, yeah and so like, when it leaves the facility to go to the consumer, yeah and so. But that regulation isn't gone and that's why, like you know, in our, in our public comment that it wasn't a very well-reviewed video but, like a lot of people didn't watch it that much.
Speaker 2:But, like I said, here's what we should do and we got to like tie this up and so like, don't forget, don't just leave these people out in the lurch, say like this is what it is, here's how it works, yeah but again, it's a path, a path that people don't have right now for the most part.
Speaker 1:Right like every individual little state, every delta nine thc grower investor person is someone putting their ass on the line for something that could possibly be rated crushed. We think the cannabis will never get back to where it was. At least, we hope it never will To the point where some people still fear their job, like we talked about. You can't speak up about this because you're getting drug tested now, because we know that you're pro-weed. What if this is that guy's person's medicine? There's a lot of people who consume this plant and then don't have that option.
Speaker 2:We're not there yet. This is what you're going to see then this is what you're going to see. Nothing you weren't expecting, and it will. Can you believe that half of social equity licenses in Illinois that have been issued are at risk of being revoked for noncompliance? That's right. Two years after social equity licenses were not giving out like Skittles, but they were given out fairly well, there was like about 200 of them 192. And by the time they were done with the litigation, closer to 200 were handed out in the summer of 22. One of the reasons why you will never see a non-lottery again in the state of Illinois because of those lawsuits that just slowed it down. They tried to do a complete lottery, which Kentucky is trying to thread that needle right now, and you know good luck to them. But the lawsuit resulted in all these licenses being handed out and out of those licenses, half of them or so don't have real estate or they may lose their license Right.
Speaker 1:They fail to meet a deadline which they failed to meet several deadlines.
Speaker 2:They failed to remain in compliance with the rules that they the rules gave them the license. Right Rules can take away their license.
Speaker 1:Well, we're going through this. Like at first, when I saw this I thought in uh, uh, wow, shit, it's us.
Speaker 1:Right, like, like illinois, right, I was like at first second I convinced myself it wasn't my ass at stake and and this is this, is you know? Uh, because we, we got our license and if we fail to meet any of these timelines, we're going to create a relationship with the entities that be like, hey, can we get an extension? We have conversations going on like, like legit, I have conversations now I'm talking to people like it just the, the, the business model, creating pitch decks and all that shit was just always been like dumb to me because, like, I just like, it's like the person that does like I know you do a little extra of your homework or you're to go above and beyond, but for me it was like someone who came from traditional market and sold. The intent was like, okay, I'll just be the guy, but you need, there's no ever going to be the guy at some point.
Speaker 1:There's no guy for liquor. There's no the guy for fucking potatoes and beer. Yeah, know, so, so, so this is what regulation is about. Like you know, it's unfortunate that you know it. There is that history, that the culture. It seems like it's gonna go away, but it's not because it never really was there, because people will buddy fuck each other.
Speaker 2:That's just business in general you know, gross, yeah, and that's one of the reasons why it's so difficult to get these licenses and why what we do is really kind of cool because of how they and social equity is a new experiment and setting them up for failure can be a thing.
Speaker 2:But you know, the laws get amended every year and we hope that more these, these, these license lotteries, I think, are going to continue. But then, like, how the licenses are valued or awarded or apportioned, to prevent fraud and abuse and to maximize the opportunity for launching, opportunity for launching and so it's this dual kind of like goal and policy where it's like you want to suppress the amount of litigation but you also want to maximize the amount of operations as you hand out these licenses, and so, like we have a very interesting product that we can talk about shortly. You know, I mean I'm not going to do it now, but once I get confirmation from the lawyers, I'll be like okay, and then we'll start from the lawyers, I'll be like okay, and then we'll start talking to canara and be like, oh, you know, how do you value this? How do you structure this to? Because there's so many? I mean like why do we like half of them fail. How much fraud and abuse is in the system?
Speaker 1:oh, a lot. But this is also like, when you're coming from a business standpoint, you're already looking at a structured scholastic framework, right. When I'm coming from the business side of things, there was no retaliatory way at somebody except for violating their life, right, like. That's just kind of like traditional market versus regulated market, like I can. Now I have about 100 pounds at X amount of dollars. This is the expectation, this is the markup, this is where people are going to sell and buy.
Speaker 1:And here's the profit, plain and simple. Whereas if I bought a quarter pound back in the day, I better sell it if it was fronted, and if it wasn't fronted I bought it. And now the matter of profit is oh, you're a pretty girl, so I'll be less. You know what I mean. Like, oh, this guy's an idiot, so I'll just mark more. It's based on bias of character pretty much, and that's what regulation is trying to avoid where everybody is treated equal, where everything's. But it is medicine too. And to get those price points, man, we got a long road before I've seen what good medicine could be affordable when it was good. Now we just need good regulation.
Speaker 2:I think we get good regulation and then it would just be more like alcohol. To be honest, I could see it just being more widely available. That's one of the things we may want to dip our license after it becomes operational because, like Illinois has got a history of this, you know where they'll make a thing and then they'll make another thing that's basically your thing and they'll just eat your lunch. And so they made, like these riverboat gamblings, like in 1990. And so, like you couldn't gamble it was illegal, it was illegal, it was illegal to gamble. And then they suddenly had these licenses to allow you to gamble, provided you were on a boat, because then it doesn't count, right, international waters, it's, it's, it's, you know, illinois river, international waters, whatever.
Speaker 2:And so that was the law. And so you had to go to like this boat on the river, but docked and never moved to gamble Right. And so that was the law. And so you had to go to like this boat on the river, but docked and never moved to gamble right. And then you know people caught up to that, they're like ah, you know, we're not, as the sky didn't fall. You know, I'm not as puritanical as I was 30 years ago after gambling and riverboats and whatnot.
Speaker 2:Now every bar is a casino, and so, like never, every bar has slot machines, so like, there's over 40,000 slot machines in Illinois now. And so that's what they did. You know, 1990, they legalized riverboats. 2009, they legalized slot machines and bars, and so when they legalized the vending machines for weed in in bars, get the fuck out. Well, I think, actually, like the year before that, get the fuck out.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I think we're like sell it and then get into the weeded bars, like you know, like those vending machines, but that'll probably happen and completely mess up the industry again. I mean the change is the only nor, like that's the only like. The only constant is change in the industry. And that I mean the change is the only norm, like that's the only like. The only constant is change in the industry.
Speaker 1:And that's I think we'll be fine with the store. Once the store gets built, once there's a place to say this is the foundation of, of the brick and mortar is, you know it's really going to help with our marketing. You know we have an edge, I think, above a lot of people. So I'm recently have you heard of the purple cow? No, it's a really good marketing book by some marketing genius and he talks about how, like you know, he was in a farm and all the cows look the same. First they're cute and you're out in the thing, and then it becomes like passe. You need the purple cow, that thing that stands above everybody else, and I think you know we can produce that. We.
Speaker 2:We are there, man, us and the 300 people hanging out with us so, okay, all right, let's, let's, uh, do some international news and then we'll wrap it up for the week and move on to the next one. There it is the Bahamas to legalize medical and religious cannabis use, because if you need it because it's medicinal, cool, and if it's also what you believe in, because you're a devout, also cool. Prime Minister Philip Davis announced that he supports a series of bills aimed at legalizing cannabis for medical and religious purposes and also decrimming possession of small amounts.
Speaker 1:That's a no-brainer man. There's industry. Now people are back to back to the grinder crashing in in the, the rebel coven convention, right More canvas consumers are out there. The tourism is out there. Canvas consumers cover everybody. They, you know, you can look at so much a neighbor, your kids, it's a lot oh yeah, it's a huge industry.
Speaker 2:the alcohol industry is hundreds of billions, the cannabis industry can be hundreds of billions. But you got to do it. You can't have two sets of rules unless you have two different statutes, and that's the problem. We have like two sets of rules right now and I hope that that truncates. But then we should have standardization at the federal level so that we're all playing the same game and we're not doing this. I mean, I don't mind the 50-state hustle, but I would prefer not to have to memorize the new states like statutory rubric on an annualized basis. I mean, like this year, it's like Kentucky and Minnesota, keep those two together, and then don't forget Delaware a little bit too. And so you're like and that's after learning Missouri, keep those two together and then don't forget Delaware a little bit too. That's Afro-Learn in Missouri.
Speaker 1:Like all the young trappers and shit. When people say, oh, I want to sell weed for a living, what does that mean? Are you going to be the grower? Are you going to be a professional contractor? Get a license, Get a license. That is the business side, that is the fundamental can walk away and provide uh your rent or other things that you know will will subsidize your lifestyle.
Speaker 2:There we go uh, because right now I was gonna say, like you know, if we sell weed and you're acting as the sole proprietor right, not even an LLC, just sole proprietor when I do crimes, I do crimes on me. I don't do crimes under an auspices that I'm going to be able to have some limited liability and so you're a sole proprietor. Yeah, I, I still wouldn't. I still wouldn't do it, but then because you're not going to get that license to just make that flip, and so those those untaxed, unregulated sales like that.
Speaker 2:Um, that's not the industry that's dealing drugs.
Speaker 1:Well, it's it's not going to be an industry, right like, because that's been the industry that's dealing drugs. Well, it's. It's not going to be the industry, right Like cause that's been the industry that has. It is kind of store. There's still telegram. I just listened to a story about like the the dark net, right Like, there's still people buying stuff because they live in, say, kentucky or in the, you know, indiana or that's why I love the Schedule 3.
Speaker 2:Let's force this conversation and be like no, this is medical, these are the rules, but then I think, well, no, hang on. Vote open primary. Let's make everybody an open primary first, because blues and reds are still going to be everywhere, but let's get the crazy out of Congress. Can we all agree on getting the crazy out of congress? We got shit to do. We don't want crazy over there trying to get a cnn job, you know well, and this is what I'm assuming- it's like banging somebody from cnn out of play washington dc just saying, like, the Congress thing will never happen.
Speaker 1:I don't think we'll ever be able to have them on the state, not for this one thing. But the ball is rolling when you get the top to create infrastructure with the regulation right, because once this becomes rescheduled then there becomes a pathway for the banking, for the taxes and all the other things that people in business you know write-offs and things of that nature right we're uh, and again, I think it'll behoove us on a marketing level, like, like, like we do have something with the, the media stuff that we have going on and we kind of understand a little seo and stuff for this conversation, for this particular issue, this plant, but this you know, don't ask me about cars, you know, but I can talk to you all day about weed I'm just, I'm just asking for like cash flows, treated like any other business, that's it.
Speaker 2:I'm just. I'm looking for a nice dispo in the bls10 region. Get that going. We can't, we can't it. So we'll market the thing behind it because that's legit and then we scrub that for anything resembling you can use the cannabis term once on your page.
Speaker 1:Well, I think a lot of our content is going to be business, one-on-one, right, because I do hope to come out there and start creating relationships with the growers, right Cause we're going to be a store, so I would like to not sell out, right? This is why we haven't sold Delta nine and TACV. We're not trying to provide shitty things to people and you know we're trying to be an asset to a community. But also this is what your market guy has. Guys, you know, has Illinois, like we're going to work with what you got, but you know you can only shape a plato and a turd, so what, like what's available? But I really do hope you know, because we're still in a weird area. You know, one of the people I would like to meet out there is the 1937 group, right?
Speaker 2:I think it's interesting that there's oh, yeah, out there, yeah, but see there's also a 1937 group here, washington state, or growers. We're at this quandary. Man, we're the same. He created an interesting structure and so like we could create a structure like that, and then you just kind of copy and print joint ventures.
Speaker 1:Right, but I think it's two different entities. I think these guys, a lot of people, come up with the same names. You know, cannabis is still that industry where trademark there's not protections a lot Some people do Cash flows.
Speaker 2:Nobody gives a fuck unless you got cash.
Speaker 1:Wow, unless you start calling yourself Skittles.
Speaker 2:That's why they call themselves Skittles. It's one of those things I would love we need to get you know that's why they call themselves Skittles, and so that's one of those things that are like work I would love. Like we need to get AB testing contracts, for if you have a craft or a license in Illinois, get at me over at CannabisInitialcom, because we need to AB test your strain names and so we have shelf space. You need to have AB testing. We will have one name for your strain and another name for your strain and give you back that data. So like that's the kind of shit that we want to be selling. It's, it's. It's a dispensary research kitchen.
Speaker 1:Well, we're also here to educate, right, like like one of the things before we go research. There's a story in coming out of Missouri when they're allowing vitamin E acetate In their products and so the regulators are failing these people, and this is the kind of things where we hope We've had Dan Vitz on the show and he comments on how this is not right. Vitamin E acetate is a thing that, if you remember VapeGate Was the reason for that. So why would producers want to use this shit? So that's one question, but just saying you know, we still got a long way to go.
Speaker 2:Long way to go, and that means that we want to thank you for tuning in and I have more stuff. I had a heck of a week. We'll be off next week. I think that the reason why Joe Biden likes to stand down is because Bill Mars off for the rest and so, like we're also saying we're off, he doesn't care about us. So he wanted to make sure that he resigned before we went live so that we could provide like basically no commentary on it.
Speaker 1:All the shit that happened in two weeks since our last show. I cannot wait to see what the fuck happens in the next two weeks.
Speaker 2:Yes, I, I got, I got two videos coming that I'll have, so there will be. It won't even be classic, and so that's the other thing that we have to do, like we have to start doing some classic episodes where you and I will, once we get the dispensary open and we're going to take a week off, we'll have like we're running the CLN from 1972. And Miggy and I will look like we're from 1972 because we'll have a budget to do that by then and we'll be interviewing like Dick Nixon. So why did you put Schedule F on the Controlled Substances Act? Well, we knew that we couldn't say explicitly that we wanted to keep these particular colored people down. Right, that would be hilarious.
Speaker 2:I mean that's what you should. Well, that's what we like to call a loss, and so you only have to pay taxes on your profits. That's what we like to call a loss. You only have to pay taxes on your profits. Hopefully your dispensary gets to do that on not a gross profit level very soon in Schedule 3 future. If you are a member of the show or of this channel and joined it, you will be featured on the credits which are coming up right now. Good night everybody. Thanks for hanging.
