10

This is your community for natural well-being.

11
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,760
Today I'm here with a special guest.

12
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,720
His name is Adam Colvins.

13
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:19,920
We have been Facebook friends since I created a Facebook.

14
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:27,160
At first I didn't know that you were someone else, so who are you with?

15
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:28,640
Introduce yourself.

16
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:38,440
Okay, so I used to have a business partner that we created Dulce, a CBD Dulce, right?

17
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:39,440
Okay.

18
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:43,440
The dude that I have now here, this is my son.

19
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:47,640
And that's what we are as far as the Dulce boys.

20
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:51,360
My business partner passed away last year in March.

21
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:52,360
Dan.

22
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:58,520
So we had to just go back to the drawing board and just kind of refigure everything out and

23
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,160
continue if we're still going to push it.

24
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:06,160
His family wanted me to keep doing what we're doing, so that's why I've been pushing this

25
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:07,160
so hard.

26
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:13,360
And like I said, just educating, doing it through motivation, being a public figure and

27
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:19,880
whatnot, and just getting out there and showing people that you don't have to believe everything

28
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,400
the doctor tells you.

29
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:29,640
There's a lot of stuff that goes into as far as medicating and actually having people

30
00:02:29,640 --> 00:02:34,880
that have real results from it that's actually had life experiences with it and stuff.

31
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:41,480
So that's what our motivation is, is just helping people.

32
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:42,480
That's awesome.

33
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:48,960
So you guys have, do you guys do CBD products and humpback strikes and stuff like that?

34
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,080
I mean, we did.

35
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:52,080
In the beginning, we did.

36
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:57,640
We had the whole website thing, and we went and did shows and all this other stuff, but

37
00:02:57,640 --> 00:03:04,960
now we've built it up into where just, like I said, just helping people and educating

38
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:05,960
people now.

39
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,760
I mean, I do help whoever does whatever region they're in.

40
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:13,840
I help them locate a good store or a place that they can't access it.

41
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,680
It doesn't specifically have to be our brand.

42
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:22,320
But just helping everybody out, especially with the CBD thing.

43
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:27,720
And a lot of people think it's a joke, but there's a lot of people that do use it.

44
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:35,160
There's a lot of people that use the oil that I know, and our candies did really good when

45
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:39,120
we did have them.

46
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:43,840
Like I said, we've just kind of, you know, refigured on what we do and, you know, and

47
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,040
kind of how we do it or whatever, you know, since Ron's passing or whatever.

48
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:52,040
But so do you focus more on THC then?

49
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:53,040
It depends, man.

50
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,720
Like I said, everybody's chemical makeup is different.

51
00:03:56,720 --> 00:04:03,000
So I help, you know, as far as, you know, just sitting down with them or just messaging

52
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,880
or something like that, you know, we'll go back and forth and I kind of, you know, try

53
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:11,400
to kind of figure out what you're trying to, you know, because sometimes, you know, THC

54
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,000
isn't the best for everybody.

55
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,840
Yeah, you know what I mean?

56
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:21,160
And that's why there's that bridge of the gap between, you know, saying, hey, you know,

57
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,680
I don't really want to fill anything, you know, just like, you know, Delta 8 has its

58
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:29,400
place, you know, and, you know, THCA and all this, you know, all this other stuff that's

59
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,560
been, you know, coming out and everything, you know, there's markets for every bit of

60
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:33,560
that.

61
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:34,560
For sure.

62
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:41,720
And, you know, some people, they do not like the way THC makes them feel, you know, and

63
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,560
like I said, everybody's chemical makeup is different and they'll, you know, they'll

64
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:49,520
know if it's, you know, not done right or if it's not made right, you know, it's medication.

65
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:50,520
100%.

66
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:56,720
You know, no matter how you look at it, you know, and like I said, just, you know, answering

67
00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:01,960
questions for people, man, I get hundreds of messages a week, you know, of people just

68
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:06,280
asking and just, you know, just curious about things, you know, hey, I got this going on

69
00:05:06,280 --> 00:05:09,800
and, you know, or, you know, you know, anything about this brand or whatever, you know, and

70
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,440
I'll, you know, help them dig into it and, you know, we'll find out together and, you

71
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:17,480
know, usually people are pretty, you know, pretty appreciative of it, you know.

72
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:18,480
For sure.

73
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:19,640
No, I, that's awesome.

74
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:24,120
I'm, I'm, that's, I'm 100% behind that.

75
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:29,640
And it's funny that you say about like the medications thing, because we just ran an ad

76
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:41,200
on Instagram and it was some guy, some guy was commenting that CBD is comparable to like

77
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,080
non-alcoholic beer.

78
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:47,280
I'm like, dude, you're at number one.

79
00:05:47,280 --> 00:05:48,960
We're missing the point.

80
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:53,680
And people do that shit on purpose, like competitors and stuff.

81
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,360
Like they post like the, like they'll go on your page and start posting dumb shit, like

82
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,920
trying to like, oh yeah, CBD is comparable to alcohol.

83
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:06,400
Like don't, don't be drawing those conclusions, man, because that's, that is so far from the

84
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:12,360
truth or so far from like, well, when you look at it from a medical perspective, you

85
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:16,720
know, as far as a doctor will look at it, you know, if CBD wasn't important, it wouldn't

86
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,640
be in the cannabinoid system.

87
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:19,640
Right.

88
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:25,840
You know, there is a certain thing that CBD does when you take it, you know, and I'm telling

89
00:06:25,840 --> 00:06:29,200
you, I could, you know, when people get on there, I'm like, dude, I can make you look

90
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,840
real bad, especially on social media, because I'll have hundreds of people come on here

91
00:06:32,840 --> 00:06:35,520
and tell you it's done wonders for them.

92
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:36,520
It's built back.

93
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:37,520
They're asleep.

94
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:38,520
They're asleep.

95
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,440
They're, they're able to eat again.

96
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:41,440
And guess what?

97
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,000
They don't feel weird after, you know, after taking it, they're not worried about falling

98
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:45,000
a drug test.

99
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,000
I mean, it makes a big difference.

100
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:52,280
And then when you start, you know, showing those people those facts, I'm just like, that's

101
00:06:52,280 --> 00:06:54,800
why people, that's why people use it.

102
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:56,440
You know, and there's a huge market for it.

103
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:57,440
There's a multi, you know what I mean?

104
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:02,000
Multi-million dollar market work because people, people actually look for that kind of, you

105
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,800
know, not, not just treatment, but cure.

106
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:05,800
You know what I mean?

107
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:06,800
Mm hmm.

108
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:07,800
I 100%.

109
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,000
100% agree with that.

110
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:15,600
It's funny when I talking to you because like, I don't normally talk with other people who

111
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:22,120
are like passionate about like the cannabinoids specifically.

112
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,960
Like I know people who are passionate about growing.

113
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,960
I know people who are passionate about like THT edibles.

114
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:34,280
I know people who are passionate about like every part of the cannabis plant like hemp

115
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,800
concrete, they're passionate about that.

116
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:44,720
But like when it comes on a cannabinoids, it really wasn't a hot, like a very explored

117
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:48,240
topic because there's like over 540, right?

118
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:54,920
So it's just funny to talk to you because like it's, it's, I don't know, I just never

119
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:56,520
get to have this conversation with somebody.

120
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:58,720
So it's fucking, it feels, it feels good.

121
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:00,920
How's that guys in my point?

122
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:05,080
I do appreciate that man because, you know, a lot of people are left in the dark with

123
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:06,080
that.

124
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,520
And this is one thing that you're, you know, your common doctor does not want you to know

125
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:10,520
this stuff.

126
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:15,680
Dude, I've been, I have some doctors in the city that do not like me.

127
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:20,800
I've taken patients from them.

128
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:24,600
And that's an honest, that's an honest factor right there.

129
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,440
You know, you start figuring out how to sell pills.

130
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,120
You don't have to go to the doctor no more.

131
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:31,120
For sure.

132
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,120
And a lot of people don't believe that.

133
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,280
I'm just like, dude, I'm telling you, I've lived it.

134
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:39,600
You know, I've seen marijuana do amazing things for people.

135
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,960
I've seen CBD do amazing things for people.

136
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,800
I've seen Delta 8 do amazing things for people.

137
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,520
You know, where they're like, man, you know, I don't, I don't, I don't have that jittery

138
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:48,520
in the soul.

139
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:52,120
And after I smoke or whatever, you know, it's like, you know, actually, I'm like, that's

140
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:53,120
what I'm saying.

141
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,880
It has, it has its place, you know.

142
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,720
CBD calms me down like realistically.

143
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:05,160
Like if I, let's say I think a little bit too extra THC, like maybe I miss, how do you

144
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:06,200
just say, um,

145
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:11,480
Yeah, I didn't, I fuck, I can't think of the word.

146
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,960
It was, it's stronger than what I thought it was going to be.

147
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:18,400
And see what CBD, like, you know, it does help me balance, you know, if that happens,

148
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:19,720
it helps me balance it out.

149
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:27,120
So, you know, there's just so many things about CBD that people would not expect, like

150
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:34,200
the full spectrum, broad spectrum, isolate, the difference between hemp oil and extra

151
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,240
and people won't, you know,

152
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,640
You know, the government job and you can't have THC in your system.

153
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,440
Dude, I'm telling you CBD is for the win.

154
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:43,440
For the win.

155
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:48,200
Yeah, you know, I got, I got buddies that have high security, you know, clearances and

156
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:53,480
they have some, you know, serious jobs and they, you know, they love having access to

157
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,520
something that they're like, you know what, this is, this is great.

158
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,440
I don't have to sit there and worry about it, you know, me, but, you know, then busting

159
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,040
me on a PIST test, you know,

160
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,440
That's a big one.

161
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:06,040
Yeah, it's dude, that's, that's what makes CBD.

162
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:07,040
So, you know what I mean?

163
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,440
So, so universal, you know what I mean?

164
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:13,920
It's just like it has its place and I'm telling you, the flower that's starting to come to

165
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:15,360
it's, it's amazing, man.

166
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,520
Some of the CBD flower that I see.

167
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:21,360
I mean, I am, I'm just, I'm excited.

168
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:22,360
I have some too.

169
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,760
I have some, I know, I know what you're talking about.

170
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:30,640
They have some like, some really cool strains, like at least the menu I just seen and they

171
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:38,920
have been focusing a lot more on that, like CBD dominant flower that is more, like, how

172
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:43,040
do you put, like, put more thought into it, kind of like the THC strain.

173
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:49,560
So it's messing with the chirping profiles and stuff like that.

174
00:10:49,560 --> 00:10:53,960
Because you know, people do people love, you know, if it's, if it's grown, right, dude,

175
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,000
people love smoking it.

176
00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:00,960
That's always going to be the biggest thing, you know, we all, everybody likes to smoke

177
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:06,160
weed, but there's some people that just they can't smoke a hardcore THC.

178
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:10,960
You know what I mean, it just it busts them down, you know, and it, because it is a heavy

179
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,080
thing for some people, man.

180
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,080
That's awesome.

181
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:19,520
You free add though it is like CBD right now.

182
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:20,840
I'm not even joking.

183
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:25,160
CBD right now here in Michigan costs more than THC products.

184
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:26,160
Oh dude.

185
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:27,160
Yes.

186
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:28,160
Yes.

187
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:32,920
You know, you get like an honest, you know, like a full spectrum CBD oil.

188
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:34,800
That's that shit's not cheap, man.

189
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:40,360
I have a lot of, I know, I have a lot of people that I know that how they medicate is they

190
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:45,880
drop the CBD oil through their, you know, onto their belly button, dude, and they self-medicate

191
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:46,880
that way.

192
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:47,880
What?

193
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:48,880
I never heard that.

194
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:49,880
Yes, dude.

195
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:51,600
That's a big thing.

196
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,800
That's a that's a that's a really quick way to heal.

197
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:58,280
Like if somebody has like Crohn's disease or, you know, somebody has real, you know,

198
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:02,560
real bad like, dude, I know people that have battle pancreas cancer like that.

199
00:12:02,560 --> 00:12:05,160
I never heard the belly button thing.

200
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:06,160
Yes, dude.

201
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:07,160
Or, you know what I mean?

202
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,880
There's there's ways that our bodies, you know, just like an epidural, you know, or

203
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:17,320
not an epidural, but like a suppository, you know, that is a really big thing for these

204
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:22,520
people to have to have, you know, col, you know, colon cancer and all, you know, you

205
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:23,800

00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,880
You know, and it is like, yeah, if you have anybody ever has any questions, you know,

212

214
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:55,340
I mean, anything like that that you can put to your belly button, dude, and it goes directly

215
00:12:55,340 --> 00:12:56,340

I got to know though, how long have you been, how long have you been like, um, advocating

235
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:53,240
or even with your business?

236
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:54,920
Like, when did that start?

237
00:13:54,920 --> 00:14:01,320
Dude, I mean, we go back, uh, you know, we, we, dude, we had a, we, you know, we had a

238
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:06,320
hidden dispensary in the city, you know, since two, you know, since 2008.

239
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:07,320
Okay.

240
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,320
Hey, where are you located by the way?

241
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:10,320
I'm sorry.

242
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:11,760
Uh, we're, we're Texas.

243
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:12,760
Texas.

244
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:13,760
Okay.

245
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:14,760
Okay.

246
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:15,760
Got you.

247
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:20,320
And, uh, I mean, we just, you know, I can't, I can't tell you how many, you know, just,

248
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:24,800
you know, how the game goes, you know, just making, making sure people have access.

249
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,840
You know, I don't want to be too specific, you know, because it's not all the way legal

250
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,800
here, but you know, making sure that, that people are taken care of.

251
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:38,080
Um, you know, we, we, we, we put our, you know, our heads together and we figured, you

252
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:43,760
know, around 2014, you know, all these states were starting to make, you know, starting to

253
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:45,280
legalize and everything.

254
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:48,200
And, you know, we're out in Denver out there in that time.

255
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:52,200
And, you know, that's when, you know, Ron and I decided that, you know, that CBD would

256
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:56,760
probably be, you know, big thing by 2017 or 2018.

257
00:14:56,760 --> 00:15:01,960
And sure enough, man, it, you know, it kicked off like a field goal and it went, it was,

258
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:03,120
it was a perfect shot.

259
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:07,280
You know, we got into COVID and we were so busy during COVID dude.

260
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,600
Uh, we, you know, there was no traffic out here.

261
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:14,400
And, you know, the Metroplex, we have some of the busiest traffic in the United States.

262
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:21,080
And I just, I couldn't believe how many people were, you know, just in their house and wanted

263
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:22,480
something, you know what I mean?

264
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:26,760
I mean, we stayed so damn busy and that's, that's what built this brand, you know what

265
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:27,760
I mean?

266
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:32,600
Like, and just, you know, it was, COVID was a, was a, you know, a lot of people lost

267
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:36,920
their businesses and we were able to just thrive through it, you know?

268
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:42,640
How do, how do we like, um, I know you're not selling anything really too much right

269
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,640
now, but how, how do we support you?

270
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:46,640
How do we do that?

271
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:50,640
How do we, uh, you know, how do we support what you're, what you're doing?

272
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:56,000
Well, I mean, honestly, you know, we do have, we do have a little bit of merchandise or

273
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,840
whatever, you know, but, you know, and that, that, that's more of a private thing.

274
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:03,880
You know, it's kind of, uh, you know, if you know us, you know, you know what that brand

275
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:09,160
means, you know, you know, you know, we, we like it to be a private, you know, uh, kind

276
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:13,120
of a private thing, you know, but, you know, we're, we're definitely, you know, out there

277
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:17,600
making, you know, making differences, you know, and trying to, you know, whoever honestly,

278
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:21,480
you know, seeking knowledge or, you know, trying to kind of, some kind of understanding

279
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:25,280
through it, especially when you're going through a cancer episode, you know, there's

280
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:29,440
so much cancer right now because of what, you know, I don't, you know, I know a lot

281
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:34,440
of people want to agree with me when I say this, but, you know, I've seen it, you know,

282
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:39,280
cancer has exploded since they started giving everybody the COVID shot.

283
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:43,160
And uh, you know, that's an interesting statistic.

284
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:44,520
It's a hundred percent, man.

285
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:50,720
I, I, I can't believe just, you know, ever since around mid 2021, man, I started here

286
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:55,760
and, and, you know, a lot of people were in contact with me about cancer coming back and,

287
00:16:55,760 --> 00:17:02,920
you know, after them getting the shot and, you know, yeah, it is, uh, it was really eye-opening

288
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:08,600
for me and know I'm just like, wow, you know, people that were, you know, thought that they

289
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:11,920
had it all beat and they went and took the, you know, they took the shot or whatever and

290
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:13,640
they're like, dude, why is my cancer back?

291
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:18,280
And, you know, they have this new term called turbo cancer, which has never been a thing

292
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:21,320
until, you know, the last two and a half years.

293
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,880
You know, it's just, there's a lot of really weird stuff going on in our medical industry

294
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,240
and I don't trust any of these people, man.

295
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,360
I mean, that's why we're doing this shit, man.

296
00:17:30,360 --> 00:17:31,360
That's why I'm glad.

297
00:17:31,360 --> 00:17:38,080
I was really excited to get you on here because although I know we really don't like.

298
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:42,640
So this is, this is all about medicine, you know, and we, we, we have a hemp program here

299
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:47,400
and I, you know, I'm full, you know, got all the stuff that I need to make sure that, you

300
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:51,480
know, that, you know, that we're going by what we know, we follow the rules and, you

301
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:52,480
know, regulate.

302
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:53,480
Right, for sure.

303
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:54,480
For sure.

304
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:55,480
You know.

305
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:56,480
I just know how Texas is though.

306
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:59,320
Texas is just so strict.

307
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,400
It is, man, but as long as you have a good seat, you know, as long as you have a good

308
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:07,240
testing, you know, a, you know, a good testing, you're, you're good, man.

309
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,960
You know, and you, you know, your, your stuff's packaged right.

310
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:10,960
You know what I mean?

311
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:11,960
They won't mess with you.

312
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:12,960
Right.

313
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:17,000
You know, like I said, you really got to be, you know, being stupid, you know, some of

314
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:20,280
these people out here, it's like, they're not going to worry about a little joint or

315
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:21,520
a little bit of weed like that.

316
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:25,680
But if you're carrying 25 pounds with you, they're going to, they're going to say something,

317
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:26,680
you know.

318
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:32,280
Man, it's crazy because you said you used, so you used to live in Denver?

319
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,400
No, we didn't live in Denver, dude.

320
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:39,360
I just during, during when, when Colorado was in the process of legalizing it, dude,

321
00:18:39,360 --> 00:18:44,560
I was back and forth to Denver with a very well-known person named Johnny Maggar, which

322
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:45,560
he's a very good homeboy.

323
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,600
And my shout out to you, dude.

324
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,960
You know, we were, we were going back and forth with, you know, him getting into the,

325
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:56,360
the industry and, you know, he's a professional joint roller, you know, he's one of the top

326
00:18:56,360 --> 00:18:58,000
growers in the nation too.

327
00:18:58,000 --> 00:18:59,000
Really?

328
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,160
I have to look into that.

329
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:02,720
I'm glad you bring him up.

330
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:03,960
Oh yeah, man.

331
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:04,960
Check him out, man.

332
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,000
He's, he's a dope ass dude, man.

333
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:12,120
He does this thing and, you know, the Dulce boys definitely support him 100%.

334
00:19:12,120 --> 00:19:14,440
He's a good dude, man.

335
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:15,440
He's there.

336
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:17,160
He's out of Oklahoma City.

337
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,520
And he, like I said, he does this thing, man.

338
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:21,520
Yeah, to check him out.

339
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:25,120
I'm going to have to get, I'm going to have to put one of your shirts or something on

340
00:19:25,120 --> 00:19:26,120
our website, man.

341
00:19:26,120 --> 00:19:30,200
I'm going to have to, I have to, I have to help.

342
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:31,600
I have to help in some way, man.

343
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:35,360
I would love to put like one of your shirts or one of your, like, or just, you know, an

344
00:19:35,360 --> 00:19:39,840
item of yours on there, just, you know, to show support because that's, it's fucking

345
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:40,840
sweet.

346
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:42,240
Dude, I appreciate that, man.

347
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,680
Yeah, you can do something out, man.

348
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:46,680
Send me a link.

349
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:47,680
It's done.

350
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:48,680
I'll make it a page and everything.

351
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:53,440
Well, you know, I mean, I mean, I'm even down to, you know, sometime, maybe even, you

352
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:57,080
know, coming out there and saying what's up, you know, coming out there for a weekend

353
00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:01,240
and, you know, coming out, you know, doing something live together like that or something,

354
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,760
you know, we're going to start doing some things like that.

355
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:09,320
Like I said, I want to be hitting some events and, you know, just being out in public educating

356
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,560
people, you know, when you, you know, when you see our brand, you see that Dulce emblem

357
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:14,960
and, you know, you know what it is, you know.

358
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:15,960
Exactly.

359
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:17,480
This is repetition, repetition.

360
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,600
And that would be fucking awesome.

361
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:25,720
If you're ever, if you're ever in the area, even if you're by like the Ohio border-ish

362
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:27,440
area, just let me know.

363
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,480
I will fucking meet you, man.

364
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:30,960
Dude, I'll, yeah.

365
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:31,960
100%

366
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:32,960
Yeah.

367
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,320
Like in, you know, flights aren't, flights are cheap dude.

368
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:41,000
And we could definitely do something like that, especially collaborating and just getting

369
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:42,600
it, getting this stuff out there, man.

370
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:43,600
You know what I mean?

371
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:46,240
And just educating people, man, showing them that there's, you know, there's another way

372
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:51,040
instead of just being backed in at the corner by your doctor, you know, the 50 shades of

373
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:52,040
CBD.

374
00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:53,040
Yeah.

375
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,440
Cause there's some places out here, man.

376
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,640
Like I said, I mean, yeah, they, they, they don't play, man.

377
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,520
Some of these state troopers out here too, man, you got to be, you got to be by the book

378
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:04,440
because they do check that stuff, man.

379
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,400
And they make sure, but we've never had any hiccups, man.

380
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:11,480
And, you know, we've never had any, you know, any problems, you know, the Fort Worth police

381
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:12,960
support us 100%.

382
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:18,760
You know, we do a march here every year downtown, it's an application march and I have a buddy

383
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:24,760
named Sean McAllister shout out to him and he's the one that, that, that puts on the,

384
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:29,000
the march down there and we have, you know, hundreds of people that go down there, man.

385
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:33,720
And we do, we do like a huge march of, you know, just supporting marijuana and, and,

386
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:39,800
and, you know, the access to any kind of medical cannabis or, you know, you know, any of that

387
00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:44,000
kind of stuff, you know, that, and we, we get a lot of love from the city for that.

388
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:45,680
And this has been Fort Worth.

389
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:49,800
Yeah, this is in Fort Worth when we do it, man.

390
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:54,240
I don't, I don't know when we're going to do the dates for this year, but I will definitely

391
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,800
post them when I, when I, when I find that information.

392
00:21:57,800 --> 00:21:58,800
Please do, please do.

393
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:02,400
Because that, that's, that's the kind of information I'm looking for too.

394
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:09,760
Like, exactly, exactly what I'm kind of, you know, advocating to prevent your, your hitting

395
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:11,400
right on the head dude.

396
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:12,400
Yup.

397
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,240
That's, that's what we do, man, is like, you know, people want, people want to know what's

398
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:16,560
going on around in your area.

399
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:21,320
I'm pretty sure that we, you know, know somebody in that area that has a dispensary or has

400
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:25,560
something going on, you know, I have friends that have, you know, places in Denver that

401
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:30,000
you, you know, you can, you can stay in the hotel and you can smoke and I got, you know,

402
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,600
buddies that, you know, have all kinds of cool dispensaries all over the United States,

403
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:34,600
man.

404
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,560
And, you know, like I said, just supporting each other, you know, and even, even if it

405
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:42,920
is just, you know, liking a post or, you know, you know, just, you know, interacting with

406
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,440
each other every now and then, you know, like I said, we do, we get a lot of love from people,

407
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:47,440
man.

408
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,120
And it's really appreciative for sure.

409
00:22:50,120 --> 00:22:53,120
People miss under, how do I say it?

410
00:22:53,120 --> 00:23:01,160
They underestimate the power of social media because it sounds to tell people, man, you

411
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,040
can just like and share my stuff.

412
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,840
People are like, man, shut the fuck up like that.

413
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:09,080
You know, you're too extra, you're too this, you're too that.

414
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:13,280
I'm like, you don't understand the power of social media.

415
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:20,600
Like these, these little, these little things that you take you half a second to do, like,

416
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:26,440
and it's really, you know, it is support more than people think.

417
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:30,280
It's so funny to say that and it sounds dumb, but dude, it's fucking true.

418
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:31,280
I'm sorry.

419
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:32,280
It's fucking true.

420
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:33,280
It's so weird to say that.

421
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:38,760
Oh, it's 100% dude, the networking on the right, you know, when, you know, everybody,

422
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,160
like I said, I go back to when, you know, we had all the lockdowns and all that stuff

423
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,240
and, you know, and people were on their social media.

424
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:48,880
And I, you know, I went from having like, you know, maybe a thousand friends on the

425
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:54,560
Facebook, you know, to a lot of people, you know, they wanted to know what was going on.

426
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:58,080
You know, a lot of people were like, man, you know, hey, you know, we want to, we want

427
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:02,040
to continue to listen, you know, and tap into what, you know, what you guys have going on

428
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:03,040
and stuff.

429
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:07,520
And it was just like, you know, now, now we have, especially for what we do, you know,

430
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:12,240
I never figured out how, you know, this many followers just for, you know, especially,

431
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:16,360
you know, just cannabis information, but, you know, people do their, like I said, they

432
00:24:16,360 --> 00:24:20,040
want to know and I, you know, when we, that's what we're here for is to make sure that we're

433
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:24,080
able to answer questions and, you know, just help people, you know.

434
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:25,080
Oh yeah.

435
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:26,080
Oh yeah.

436
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:28,720
So like, I think, I think that's worth their calling it now.

437
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:34,040
I was like, like, what are they calling people who've been involved at the cannabis industry?

438
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:39,880
I think they're calling it like legacy people or legacy cannabis people or just people who

439
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,240
have been in it for a while, right?

440
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:49,760
But it's been a long, like I said, man, it's been a long off, you know, this stuff doesn't

441
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:53,600
happen overnight, you know, there's, there's people that are like, man, I, you know, it's

442
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:54,760
easy what you do.

443
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:59,560
And I'm like, dude, you don't understand the blood, sweat and tears and the miles and,

444
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:03,120
you know, how many different things that we have to do to get to this point, you know,

445
00:25:03,120 --> 00:25:04,120
what I mean?

446
00:25:04,120 --> 00:25:06,960
Like we have worked our paths of all.

447
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:09,560
This is not fucking easy.

448
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:13,560
I thought this, it was going to be a lot easier than this.

449
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:15,600
I'm not joking.

450
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:20,600
I thought that, but man, there's just like, there's a lot of positive that comes along

451
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:25,240
with it, but then there's just like a lot of negative like this people, it's mostly

452
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:30,120
just people trying to bring you down, I guess, for the most part, but it's just there's,

453
00:25:30,120 --> 00:25:33,800
there's a lot more to this than people realize.

454
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:39,280
No, especially like, you know, and I know a lot of people are going to agree with me

455
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:45,640
when I say this, but you know, my family does not support what I do at all.

456
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:51,480
They think that it's, you know, but I proved them wrong, especially with, you know, the

457
00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:56,680
state's passing it and then just these, these stories of these people and, you know, we

458
00:25:56,680 --> 00:26:01,240
got, you got, you know, the Colorado University doing studies saying that it doesn't impair

459
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:07,280
your driving ability and, you know, just, just, you know, information that we're just,

460
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,440
you know, makes people that they even love you, man, they put their foot in their mouth

461
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,440
and it's like, dude, I'm not doing this to be cool.

462
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:14,440
Right.

463
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,840
You have somebody that's very close to you that comes down with cancer and that's the

464
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:19,440
last option that they have.

465
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:24,280
You're going to do any and every damn thing that you can do to help that person, even

466
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:28,240
if they aren't going to make it, you make them as comfortable as you possibly can.

467
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:29,240
Fuck yeah.

468
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:30,240
Yeah.

469
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:35,120
And that, that's, that's, you know, like I said, just being that person in your family

470
00:26:35,120 --> 00:26:41,480
knew I knew my calling at a very young age, you know, and I, I, I stayed true to what

471
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:45,640
I believed in, man, and I, I strut, you know, I took it and I ran with it and I've never

472
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:46,640
stopped.

473
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:47,640
I've never looked back.

474
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:52,080
I'm glad you, I'm honestly, I'm glad you have a man.

475
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:57,800
You're, regardless, I think you're, I would assume your family is proud of you, even if

476
00:26:57,800 --> 00:26:59,560
they don't support what you're doing.

477
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:04,880
Like you are, you're following what you want to do, you, what you believe in and you put

478
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:09,280
up an excellent point too about the cancer because that part goes right over people's

479
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:15,880
heads, you know, it's, it's hard, man, especially when you, you know, you've had somebody that

480
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:22,520
you know, they were there and you know, it's just that, you know, sometimes, you know,

481
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:25,400
people are like, we'll see that, you know, you know, cannabis didn't work and it's just

482
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,240
like, it's not going to work every time, but I've seen it.

483
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:33,120
I've seen it, you know, do 180s on people's, you know, situations too, man.

484
00:27:33,120 --> 00:27:37,560
I've seen, you know, breast cancer, I've seen skin cancer dude where, you know, I'm

485
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:41,840
like, wow, it's an amazing thing, man.

486
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:42,840
It's incredible.

487
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:47,440
It's like, oh, you know, Charlotte's web CBD, you know, like I've seen those stuff,

488
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:52,520
you know, seen a lot of really cool things happen.

489
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:56,800
You know, that's the kind of stuff that you have to bring people's, you know, you know,

490
00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:00,400
bring the people, you know, and then they start to understand or just like, man, you

491
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,080
know, I'm like, that's what I'm saying, dude, this isn't some made up story.

492
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:07,400
You know, this is, these are people's lives that have been changed because of it.

493
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:08,400
All right.

494
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:13,360
So we're going to, I, I, man, I was so much, I greatly appreciate you do that.

495
00:28:13,360 --> 00:28:16,400
Honestly, I look up to you because I follow your stuff.

496
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:18,240
I know you've been doing this for a while.

497
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:22,560
I, I, I, I look, you know, I take some of your advice to be honest with you.

498
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:26,160
You know, I see some of your stuff and the way you guys do things.

499
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:28,880
So I appreciate that.

500
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:30,720
You know, so there's that.

501
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:36,040
And then we're going to get you back on the show here soon because I think we're going

502
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:43,000
to have to end up doing like more, more episodes pretty much like instead of one a week, we're

503
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:46,880
going to have to do like three every two weeks or something.

504
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:49,080
You're going to have to add like an extra one in there.

505
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:52,320
So it's, I'm excited to get you on the show.

506
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:57,240
If you're, if you're wanting to do it and you can, and you see what, you know, see where

507
00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:04,680
it's going and like what could happen on many different avenues, I would, I would be really

508
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:06,440
happy to have you involved.

509
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:08,920
Yeah, dude, I'm definitely, I'm definitely down, man.

510
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:10,480
I would like to collaborate like that, man.

511
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:15,920
Like I said, it, it helped us out both tremendously and you know, like, you know, like, even when

512
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:19,640
we do have this March, you know, that's coming up, maybe we could figure out maybe how to

513
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:22,440
get you down here, you know, dude, I'm down.

514
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:25,480
I'm a hundred percent down, a hundred percent down.

515
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,040
That would be sweet as fuck.

516
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:28,040
Yeah.

517
00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:30,120
Dude, we got to make sure that you're really comfortable.

518
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:34,120
And like I said, it would be a good, a good experience for you.

519
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:38,120
You know, to me and to see how many, especially out here in Texas, dude, how many people

520
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:40,160
are passionate about it.

521
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,800
I need, I do, I want to go, I want to go to Texas.

522
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,960
I've wanted, I've been wanted to go to Texas.

523
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,360
We're going to meet up in person.

524
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:49,360
I already know it.

525
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:53,760
It might not be, it might not be, you know, today, tomorrow, a month from now, but I know

526
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,960
we're going to, I know we're going to be meeting up in person one day.

527
00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:58,200
I'm confident of it.

528
00:29:58,200 --> 00:29:59,480
Me too, man.

529
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:03,640
Like I said, I like, I like what you do and I like, you know, I, I respect what you do

530
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:08,240
and same thing, dude, I pay attention to, you know, how you present yourself and, you

531
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:11,600
know, just how you're passionate about your brand and stuff, dude, you know, I'm right

532
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:12,600
there with you.

533
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,960
You know, you would, you know, even if a lot of people are like, Oh, yeah, because I,

534
00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:18,080
you know, there's always going to be haters, man.

535
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:22,240
There's always going to be somebody that's that mad that because you're doing it and

536
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:23,240
they're not.

537
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:25,120
And they can't fucking stand.

538
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:26,120
Excuse my language.

539
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:28,080
No, you're good, dude.

540
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:29,080
Unfeltered.

541
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:30,080
Go unfeltered, man.

542
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:35,960
So, you know, you get a lot, you know, it's, it's especially, you know, friends from the

543
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:36,960
past and stuff.

544
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:40,320
And, you know, you're a lot, they're just like, Oh, yeah, so what, you think you're big

545
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:43,360
time now or, you know, something, you know, and I'm just like, Nuda has nothing to do

546
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:44,360
with that, man.

547
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:49,960
I mean, people don't, people aren't just loving my stuff because I was nice to them or, you

548
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:54,520
know, I mean, because I was like, no, dude, it's like people, I have helped them in some

549
00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:55,920
kind of way, you know what I mean?

550
00:30:55,920 --> 00:31:00,520
Or, you know, that's why, you know, we have those people that interact with us like that.

551
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,840
And, you know, it's not, it's not a popularity contest at all.

552
00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:08,360
Yeah, it's, it's by interacting with people and helping, you know, trying to help and

553
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:11,480
not, you know, you can't just sit there and expect that to come to you.

554
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,360
You don't just get into the cannabis industry.

555
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:15,960
I learned that the hard way.

556
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:19,720
Like it's the cannabis industry has to accept you.

557
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:25,880
Like in general, like even in the statewide and federal side level, because there are,

558
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,800
there are many brands out there and you could be easily replaced.

559
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:37,440
So you have to like, you have to tell, you have to show people why you are superior in

560
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:43,520
every way possible, you know, and you know, man, you have to be unique in what you do.

561
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:48,160
You have to be unique in how you move and how you present yourself and what you present,

562
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:55,360
why you present it, you know, like, you know, we, we, we walk it, we live it, you know,

563
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:59,880
I, you know, I got, you know, I got a lot of people that are just, you know, they've

564
00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:05,800
seen us just, just in the, you know, in the process of making this happen and, you know,

565
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:10,520
being there and just, you know, applauding us the whole way, you know, like I said, we

566
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:12,840
got some really good supporters in the city, man.

567
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:16,800
And, you know, how, you know, how much love we receive when we do go out to local events,

568
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:21,080
you know, we went to the Louis, Louis the singer and the Paul Walsh show right before

569
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:25,520
New Year's and we got a lot of love out there, man.

570
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:26,520
It's awesome.

571
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:27,520
It's amazing, man.

572
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:31,280
It's really cool when people recognize your brand, you know what I mean, especially when

573
00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:35,320
you're, you know, you're, you're private and same thing with cannabis because a lot of

574
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:39,280
people, you know, they see that even if it is CBD, they're just like, they automatically

575
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:45,640
think drugs, you know, so it's like, you know, there's a mix of people, you know, depending

576
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:48,960
on where you go, a lot, you know, most people are accepting, but then you have some people

577
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:54,400
that get real offended of it, you know, I know, man, it's weed, you know, they're just

578
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:59,960
not, you just can't get past that, that part that, that stigma of it, it's weed, you know,

579
00:32:59,960 --> 00:33:00,960
that's it.

580
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,520
And, you know, they're not changing their, those people's minds.

581
00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:05,320
I've seen the conclusion.

582
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:08,320
Yeah, it's, it's hard.

583
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:13,320
You can, you might be able to get through to some of them, you might, but like, man,

584
00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:17,880
there's some are so, man, they're so difficult, but then there are other people who want

585
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:19,680
to learn too.

586
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:25,120
And those are the people who insult it because secretly they want to know more about it, but

587
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,880
they're just like, it's weed, I don't want anything to do with it.

588
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:33,720
Dude, I got people that private message me and, you know, not behind their spouses, you

589
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:38,200
know, back or anything, but I got, you know, I got some women that, that will message me

590
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:43,520
and they're like, man, you know, I need access to a joint, you know what I mean?

591
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:44,960
Like, you know, can you help me out?

592
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:47,720
You know, or, you know, just little stuff like that, you know?

593
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:51,840
I'm not anywhere in the area, but I, you know, I help them access what they need, you know,

594
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:56,880
you're just like crazy that you have to medicate behind somebody's back like that or, you

595
00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:58,640
know, be in those kinds of situations.

596
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:03,240
But dude, I'm telling you when somebody has a man, I'm telling Crohn's is not a joke.

597
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:07,840
Makes you, people make you try to make you feel bad, but yeah, Crohn's continue about

598
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:09,240
Crohn's because this fucked up.

599
00:34:09,240 --> 00:34:10,240
Crohn's is bad.

600
00:34:10,240 --> 00:34:14,240
And just, you know, just when somebody stuck in that situation, you know, in the, in the

601
00:34:14,240 --> 00:34:18,320
medication, not helping them, the doctor's giving them, you know, and they're, you know,

602
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:21,360
and this goes for a bunch of people, man, you know, they're just like, dude, every,

603
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:25,200
you know, when I smoke or, you know, I eat an edible or something, it calms my stomach

604
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:29,800
or my stomach's not all achy and, you know, I don't feel all, you know, hurting and stuff

605
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:30,800
like that.

606
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:36,040
And I'm like, it, it is dude, like it's, it's, it's sad that people have to, you know,

607
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,760
I rarely get sick, rarely.

608
00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:40,560
Me too, man.

609
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:41,560
Rarely.

610
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:47,120
And, and like cannabis, I, like, I did, you know, I do the hop side of it and I do the,

611
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,680
you know, the marijuana side to it.

612
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:55,320
So, you know, like I'm, you know, I'm feeling pretty balanced all the time.

613
00:34:55,320 --> 00:35:00,360
Well, you know, like on the other side, dude, you know, I'm an engineer.

614
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:01,360
Oh, really?

615
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:06,480
Yeah, dude, I'm a mechanical engineer and I, you know, I still work a full time job and

616
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,960
do the whole, you know, I got 15 years in that company.

617
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:16,240
And I, you know, I'm, I have to, I have, I work around high pressure ammonia.

618
00:35:16,240 --> 00:35:19,960
So I have to be certified pretty much like a firefighter, dude.

619
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:23,120
I have to be able to support an apparatus, right?

620
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:27,960
So I have to take a pulmonary test every year.

621
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:33,480
And these nurses are like, man, they're like, dude, you, they're like, man, that's long,

622
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:37,800
dude, you know, like, you know, and that's why I tell everybody, dude, it's, it's living

623
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:38,800
proof.

624
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:42,720
I'm not saying anymore, man, you know, like, I, I, that's fucked up.

625
00:35:42,720 --> 00:35:46,360
Yeah, dude, you know, and it's, you know, I love dabs.

626
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:50,360
I, you know, there's nothing wrong with enjoying, you know, weed, you know, there's a safe way

627
00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:51,360
to enjoy it.

628
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:56,240
There's a time to enjoy it, you know, and a lot of people just got to, you know, they

629
00:35:56,240 --> 00:36:01,240
got to wise up about it, you know, you just, just in the last week, you know, in the past

630
00:36:01,240 --> 00:36:06,400
weeks, the UFC, you know, they just started accepting, you know, they're not going to

631
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,480
be worried about THC anymore.

632
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:13,440
You know, just like the major league baseball did, just like the NBA has done.

633
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:23,440
I'm really excited to see how cannabis legalization and how they handle that in the future.

634
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:30,000
