1
00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:07,080
Welcome to Cannabis School. 
I'm your host, Jesse Angeles. 

2
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:10,040
And I'm Brandon Elder, and we're
here to talk to you about 

3
00:00:10,120 --> 00:00:13,400
everything pertaining to 
cannabis from bait flower 

4
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:16,800
edibles, strains, and everything
in between. 

5
00:00:21,890 --> 00:00:24,690
Hey, it's so good to see you 
guys. 

6
00:00:24,850 --> 00:00:27,490
It's another week of cannabis 
school. 

7
00:00:27,570 --> 00:00:28,730
Welcome back. 
Yeah. 

8
00:00:28,730 --> 00:00:32,049
And we hope that the last Strain
review was awesome. 

9
00:00:32,049 --> 00:00:35,090
And if you're just coming off an
interview, that was pretty 

10
00:00:35,090 --> 00:00:37,210
awesome, right? 
Hopefully I mean. 

11
00:00:37,890 --> 00:00:40,050
Maybe it's your jam. 
Well, the numbers are showing 

12
00:00:40,050 --> 00:00:41,250
that. 
Definitely, yeah. 

13
00:00:41,410 --> 00:00:43,410
I I'm seeing that like so many 
times. 

14
00:00:43,410 --> 00:00:46,330
We're being able to get it, but 
today we wanted to be able to go

15
00:00:46,330 --> 00:00:48,770
over another, more of a open 
one-on-one. 

16
00:00:48,810 --> 00:00:51,050
We do. 
And 1st, I just wanted to take a

17
00:00:51,050 --> 00:00:53,690
minute and really thank you guys

So it's a great place. 
Thank you guys. 

29
00:01:27,320 --> 00:01:29,160
Yeah. 
And and this. 

30
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:31,360
Week. 
Yeah, one-on-one. 

31
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:33,440
It's. 
Quite an interesting discussion,

32
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:34,920
because we've been talking about
it. 

33
00:01:35,790 --> 00:01:40,430
Often, yeah. 
And I mean, I know that we are, 

34
00:01:40,430 --> 00:01:43,750
we meet in the middle on a lot 
of these things and then we meet

35
00:01:43,750 --> 00:01:46,830
completely on the different 
sides, which is I think is 

36
00:01:46,830 --> 00:01:49,270
great. 
You know, having that open 

37
00:01:49,270 --> 00:01:53,270
dialogue means a lot, especially
when it comes to cannabis. 

38
00:01:53,270 --> 00:01:58,550
I think one of the hardest, I 
think the most difficult when 

39
00:01:58,550 --> 00:02:03,470
you read on any kind of open 
question, like how, when did you

40
00:02:03,470 --> 00:02:06,260
get into cannabis? 
Yeah, you'll read people saying 

41
00:02:06,260 --> 00:02:12,820
like, you know, 21/26/18. 
Well, when did you me very first

42
00:02:12,820 --> 00:02:14,860
time got into cannabis? 
I was 20 years old. 

43
00:02:14,980 --> 00:02:19,580
Okay. 
I was 18, but that that is very 

44
00:02:19,580 --> 00:02:23,940
common question of like when do 
you start using cannabis or when

45
00:02:23,940 --> 00:02:29,020
do you feel it's okay to start 
using cannabis or maybe not even

46
00:02:29,020 --> 00:02:31,980
for you but for all of us 
parents. 

47
00:02:32,910 --> 00:02:36,710
When is it okay for your kids to
use cannabis? 

48
00:02:37,470 --> 00:02:41,870
Because we had this discussion. 
It's so many of those parents 

49
00:02:41,870 --> 00:02:44,430
you grow up and it's like, hey, 
you go to that friend's house 

50
00:02:44,430 --> 00:02:47,430
because their parents want you 
to drink there instead of 

51
00:02:47,430 --> 00:02:49,750
somewhere else because they 
would rather happy be that. 

52
00:02:50,390 --> 00:02:53,070
And I've I've never really felt 
like I was that parent. 

53
00:02:53,790 --> 00:02:56,390
That's not really how I feel 
about it. 

54
00:02:56,390 --> 00:03:02,270
My stance with alcohol, but like
we discussed, alcohol is a. 

55
00:03:02,700 --> 00:03:07,100
Regulated substance, yeah. 
Cannabis is a whole nother 

56
00:03:07,100 --> 00:03:10,980
market where we get things laced
with fentanyl or vitamin E and 

57
00:03:10,980 --> 00:03:13,940
people are getting hospitalized 
or or dying. 

58
00:03:14,460 --> 00:03:18,460
Like it's things that are not 
clean black market products that

59
00:03:19,100 --> 00:03:23,660
maybe your kids are getting. 
Yeah, it's like recently my son,

60
00:03:23,660 --> 00:03:26,460
he he had come to me and he 
says, yeah, this friend of mine 

61
00:03:26,460 --> 00:03:29,980
at school, he hasn't shown up 
and the cops have been going 

62
00:03:29,980 --> 00:03:32,910
around talking to all of us. 
And I was like, what that was 

63
00:03:32,910 --> 00:03:35,550
going on. 
He's like, well, he was a dealer

64
00:03:35,550 --> 00:03:36,950
and I'm like, what do you mean a
dealer? 

65
00:03:36,950 --> 00:03:40,710
He's like, well, he he sold 
pills and he sold mushrooms and 

66
00:03:40,710 --> 00:03:43,590
he sold weed. 
And I was like okay. 

67
00:03:43,710 --> 00:03:45,310
And I said, have you ever taken 
any with him? 

68
00:03:45,310 --> 00:03:47,070
He goes, well, he's asked me, 
but I never did. 

69
00:03:47,870 --> 00:03:50,870
And I'm like, you know, you 
really need to be careful with 

70
00:03:50,870 --> 00:03:56,190
that. 
Because out there now, there are

71
00:03:56,190 --> 00:04:01,380
so many of the different black 
market products, carts with 

72
00:04:01,380 --> 00:04:05,140
either too much vitamin E oil in
there or whatever else they're 

73
00:04:05,140 --> 00:04:06,700
putting into it. 
But they're also lacing this 

74
00:04:06,700 --> 00:04:10,180
shit with fentanyl. 
And who knows what? 

75
00:04:10,380 --> 00:04:12,220
Yeah, who knows what? 
Because they're just trying to 

76
00:04:12,220 --> 00:04:15,900
sell shit to you and you don't 
know what's being cut with now. 

77
00:04:15,900 --> 00:04:19,940
I know for a lot of us that use 
flour, it's kind of a nobrainer.

78
00:04:19,940 --> 00:04:22,820
You, you know when shit's been 
messed with, Yeah. 

79
00:04:23,300 --> 00:04:25,660
The experience is way different 
and you're like, yeah, but you 

80
00:04:25,660 --> 00:04:27,660
can also see a difference in 
that one. 

81
00:04:27,660 --> 00:04:29,740
You can almost smell a 
difference in but when it's in a

82
00:04:29,740 --> 00:04:34,580
cart or it's in an edible which 
is fastest growing way to be 

83
00:04:34,580 --> 00:04:38,380
able to consume cannabis where 
you and I both are just like 

84
00:04:38,380 --> 00:04:42,860
whoa, you know if if you've been
doing this for a while okay like

85
00:04:43,430 --> 00:04:45,710
which is really hard for a lot 
of people to wrap their heads 

86
00:04:45,710 --> 00:04:48,390
around they think. 
Oh, if I even die, Market flower

87
00:04:48,390 --> 00:04:51,230
sometimes get sprayed with 
distillate to increase their 

88
00:04:51,230 --> 00:04:53,030
potency. 
Yeah, then they're going, hey, 

89
00:04:53,030 --> 00:04:54,990
I've got this really high 
potency stuff. 

90
00:04:55,350 --> 00:04:58,750
Now you're just getting anxiety.
Like to this person. 

91
00:04:58,830 --> 00:05:00,550
Yeah, straight to HC is not a 
good idea. 

92
00:05:00,710 --> 00:05:04,150
And it's not really the real 
plant flower because then you're

93
00:05:04,150 --> 00:05:07,670
introducing that and is that 
foreign, is the distillate in 

94
00:05:07,670 --> 00:05:11,830
that form even clean and pure, 
is that also have something in 

95
00:05:11,830 --> 00:05:14,700
there? 
And so it's just this, there's 

96
00:05:14,700 --> 00:05:17,780
no regulation for that. 
And so it's a different thing. 

97
00:05:17,780 --> 00:05:23,940
But like have you come to a 
stance on how where you feel on 

98
00:05:23,940 --> 00:05:27,540
that yet? 
Like when you feel is it okay to

99
00:05:27,540 --> 00:05:31,100
give your kid or provide them 
with a cleaner product because 

100
00:05:31,100 --> 00:05:34,260
you know it's not laced with it.
If they are, yeah. 

101
00:05:34,260 --> 00:05:36,860
I mean that's it's actually we 
we've kind of danced around it 

102
00:05:36,860 --> 00:05:38,660
and that's definitely that's 
what the title that's what we're

103
00:05:38,660 --> 00:05:41,550
talking about today is being 
able to talk to your kids, not 

104
00:05:41,550 --> 00:05:43,430
just about cannabis by teaching 
about it. 

105
00:05:43,430 --> 00:05:47,670
Because I teach my kids about it
in a in a in a very, very direct

106
00:05:47,670 --> 00:05:51,790
way, very simplistic way. 
And I asked them to come talk to

107
00:05:51,790 --> 00:05:53,470
me when they have questions 
about it. 

108
00:05:53,510 --> 00:05:57,510
I asked my little daughter who 
is 11, and I said, do you think 

109
00:05:57,510 --> 00:06:01,030
it's weird I was in the 
backyard, I don't smoke my 

110
00:06:01,030 --> 00:06:05,710
house, but well, I don't smoke 
flour in my house, I should say.

111
00:06:07,230 --> 00:06:13,310
But I asked her, is it, is it, 
is it hard for you to that I 

112
00:06:13,310 --> 00:06:17,230
smoke cannabis? 
And she said no, I think it's 

113
00:06:17,230 --> 00:06:19,990
totally fine. 
She's like, it's just a little 

114
00:06:19,990 --> 00:06:23,590
weird because people say that 
smoking is bad, but my dad 

115
00:06:23,590 --> 00:06:27,670
smokes cannabis. 
But my dad, he's not a bad 

116
00:06:27,670 --> 00:06:31,470
person and he's really loving 
and he helps a lot of people and

117
00:06:31,470 --> 00:06:34,590
he works really hard. 
So I don't see a problem with 

118
00:06:34,590 --> 00:06:37,150
it, which is great to hear that 
from a young mind. 

119
00:06:37,910 --> 00:06:42,440
And then I've got my older son, 
who, the way he comes to ask me,

120
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:47,440
he's like, hey dad, can I have 
some saying it? 

121
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,480
Twix, bro? 
Yeah, right. 

122
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,320
That's the way he comes. 
At me up a piece of that. 

123
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,320
Yeah, exactly. 
Is it candy? 

124
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,680
No. 
And and we talk about it all the

125
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:58,440
time on the show. 
It's about intent. 

126
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:04,080
It's what are you using it for? 
And it will absolutely elevate 

127
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,360
you, which I think about that. 
I'm like, well, could it help 

128
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:11,450
him with certain things, right? 
It works with me with my ADHD 

129
00:07:12,050 --> 00:07:15,730
and in our state, you know, kids
can get medical cards with 

130
00:07:15,810 --> 00:07:18,650
certain circumstances. 
With approval of parents and 

131
00:07:18,890 --> 00:07:23,290
medical professional, Yeah. 
And that might be an instance 

132
00:07:23,290 --> 00:07:28,410
where that would be. 
But how do you, you know, do you

133
00:07:28,410 --> 00:07:31,850
test that? 
Do you, are you a parent with 

134
00:07:31,850 --> 00:07:33,370
kids? 
Have you tested that? 

135
00:07:33,650 --> 00:07:36,650
We would love to get your guys's
thoughts as well if you want to 

136
00:07:36,650 --> 00:07:39,430
send us your thoughts. 
Shoot us an e-mail, Shoot us a 

137
00:07:39,430 --> 00:07:43,590
message on social media. 
I think there's even a voice 

138
00:07:43,590 --> 00:07:47,270
message thing on the show page 
that you can send, yeah. 

139
00:07:47,710 --> 00:07:49,150
And even on Spotify you can, 
yeah. 

140
00:07:49,190 --> 00:07:52,510
So we would love to hear from 
you guys, just your thoughts on 

141
00:07:52,510 --> 00:07:55,310
it, if you guys are parents, if 
you've ever thought about that 

142
00:07:55,670 --> 00:07:57,910
or you know what your 
perspective is on it. 

143
00:07:58,150 --> 00:08:00,150
Yeah, cuz you know what you'd 
asked me? 

144
00:08:01,150 --> 00:08:03,470
Have you had that conversation? 
Have you had that consideration?

145
00:08:04,100 --> 00:08:08,020
Or have you landed on like where
you feel you you lie at this 

146
00:08:08,020 --> 00:08:13,380
moment because that it's a 
tough, really tough place to be?

147
00:08:13,380 --> 00:08:15,260
Well, I mean there's the legal 
side. 

148
00:08:16,300 --> 00:08:19,140
You know, I I wouldn't give my 
kid alcohol. 

149
00:08:20,860 --> 00:08:23,100
This is a mind altering 
substance. 

150
00:08:23,100 --> 00:08:27,500
But at the same time, I know 
what it's not and I know what 

151
00:08:27,500 --> 00:08:30,060
it's capable of. 
But again, that comes back to 

152
00:08:30,060 --> 00:08:34,710
intent. 
And he's a teenager and his 

153
00:08:34,710 --> 00:08:38,750
ideas are all about self. 
What do I get? 

154
00:08:38,750 --> 00:08:42,190
What do I get to do? 
And it's not anything wrong. 

155
00:08:42,190 --> 00:08:44,110
It's just kind of teenagers. 
They're kind of coming into 

156
00:08:44,110 --> 00:08:46,190
understanding who they are as an
individual. 

157
00:08:46,790 --> 00:08:50,630
And so I'm like, you know, part 
of me is like, yeah, I'd love 

158
00:08:50,630 --> 00:08:53,390
for him to be able to feel more 
relaxed, but then I'm like, from

159
00:08:53,390 --> 00:08:56,190
what? 
Because his life is pretty 

160
00:08:56,190 --> 00:09:00,830
chill. 
And I what it ultimately came 

161
00:09:00,830 --> 00:09:04,160
down to was I just sat him down 
because he kept asking me, hey, 

162
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,720
can I, can I have one of those 
gummies? 

163
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:10,440
Hey, let me let me have a hit 
off that pen. 

164
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,840
I'm like, do you even know how 
to smoke? 

165
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:19,680
He's like, yeah, you just. 
I'm like, no, I was like, look 

166
00:09:19,680 --> 00:09:21,000
I'm not I'm not going to teach 
you that. 

167
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:25,800
I said, but let's talk about it.
Say, and I talked about intent 

168
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,080
of course. 
And I'm not going to reiterate 

169
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:28,880
over that we've already gone 
over that many times on the 

170
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:33,760
show. 
But I went into like, here's why

171
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,520
you should avoid work smoking 
with any of your friends. 

172
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,280
One is you don't know where it's
coming from. 

173
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,400
And if you don't know where it's
coming from, I'm going to ask 

174
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,320
you the same thing. 
Would you pick, Would you pick 

175
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,720
up food that was dropped on the 
sidewalk? 

176
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:50,880
You don't know where it came 
from. 

177
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:54,640
You don't know who was eating 
it, let alone what's in it. 

178
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,640
Now would you pick up that slice
of pizza off the sidewalk 

179
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:00,760
mid-july? 
Going well? 

180
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:05,520
It's warm. 
Maybe Mad Max time? 

181
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:07,160
Right. 
Yeah, Right. 

182
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,720
Like, I would eat a rat. 
I would eat anything. 

183
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,400
I I would even if if it came 
down to it, I'd kill my dog to 

184
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,120
eat. 
Just just so my family had 

185
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:15,640
sustenance. 
Totally would. 

186
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,880
It'd be hard, yeah. 
But I would do it, you know, in 

187
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,200
that moment. 
But we're we're in a world right

188
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,800
now of a lot of convenience. 
We live in convenience. 

189
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,120
Yeah, it's awesome in many ways 
and it sucks in others. 

190
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,870
So I told him I was like, look, 
if you're going to pick that up 

191
00:10:30,870 --> 00:10:32,990
off the ground and eat it, you 
know you're not going to know 

192
00:10:32,990 --> 00:10:34,230
where it came from. 
You're not going to know where 

193
00:10:34,230 --> 00:10:37,070
it's trusted and you don't know 
what it's going to do to you, 

194
00:10:37,470 --> 00:10:39,870
right? 
You imagine your shoes. 

195
00:10:40,230 --> 00:10:43,470
A lot of us take off our shoes 
when we come into a home, right?

196
00:10:43,830 --> 00:10:46,430
Depending on how nice it is or 
whatever. 

197
00:10:46,430 --> 00:10:48,830
But if you think about it, if 
you have little kids, you're 

198
00:10:48,830 --> 00:10:51,710
more prone to taking your shoes 
off because they're walking 

199
00:10:51,710 --> 00:10:54,830
around on their hands and feet. 
Whatever shit you pulled in from

200
00:10:54,870 --> 00:10:57,830
on off of your shoe is now going
to go in their mouth. 

201
00:10:57,990 --> 00:11:00,350
Yep, I tend to think of my 
children like that. 

202
00:11:00,470 --> 00:11:02,630
I'm like okay. 
But that's the other part that 

203
00:11:02,670 --> 00:11:04,590
that is in my head that you just
said. 

204
00:11:04,990 --> 00:11:09,710
Would you rather give him a 
product that's known clean and 

205
00:11:09,710 --> 00:11:11,630
clean? 
And then I. 

206
00:11:11,750 --> 00:11:15,670
Struggle on that's black market 
and potentially lays right and I

207
00:11:15,670 --> 00:11:18,270
told him about that. 
That's really tough because like

208
00:11:18,270 --> 00:11:20,910
you said, for me, I wouldn't 
give my kids alcohol either. 

209
00:11:23,100 --> 00:11:29,100
But if I knew they were using 
cannabis and it wasn't, wasn't 

210
00:11:29,100 --> 00:11:32,740
something that I knew what it 
was, would I want to provide 

211
00:11:32,740 --> 00:11:36,060
something different because 
they're already using it? 

212
00:11:37,580 --> 00:11:41,580
Or hopefully in that instance, 
can I educate them if I feel, 

213
00:11:41,580 --> 00:11:46,060
hey, maybe you're not or you 
know intent, hey, why is it 

214
00:11:46,060 --> 00:11:48,900
you're you're trying to use? 
What's going on? 

215
00:11:49,330 --> 00:11:52,170
What's going on that you're 
feeling the need to use this? 

216
00:11:52,330 --> 00:11:54,850
Well, that's what I asked him. 
Look, what do you need it for? 

217
00:11:55,530 --> 00:11:58,210
And like to pay attention? 
I said. 

218
00:11:58,210 --> 00:12:02,090
Well, that's an understandable 
request like, but I don't think 

219
00:12:02,090 --> 00:12:04,250
he understands what. 
Does it help him pay attention? 

220
00:12:04,570 --> 00:12:08,850
Because that's what I would ask 
is how does this, how do you see

221
00:12:08,850 --> 00:12:11,850
this helping you pay attention? 
Well, he goes off of what I use 

222
00:12:11,850 --> 00:12:16,280
it for, which is typically to be
able to focus and to get things 

223
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:17,400
done. 
And so it's. 

224
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:22,760
It's easy because they see that 
perspective of of our use and 

225
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:27,200
our intent and maybe they see 
that and go, hey, I struggle 

226
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:31,960
with focus, I struggle with this
well and I think it's just the 

227
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,760
delivery method. 
So I would be fine with a team 

228
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:40,560
chair or with a microdose edible
like discreets, right? 

229
00:12:40,560 --> 00:12:44,240
Yeah, they're Delta 9. 
Well, it's. 

230
00:12:44,740 --> 00:12:49,260
Mostly like it's got a lot more.
It's got a lot more CBD and 

231
00:12:49,260 --> 00:12:52,780
other cannabinoids. 
It's got like 2.9 or 2.5 

232
00:12:52,780 --> 00:12:55,420
milligrams, Yeah. 
And that's that's where I'm. 

233
00:12:55,780 --> 00:12:58,620
I see it and I'm like, would it 
hurt him? 

234
00:12:59,180 --> 00:13:04,140
Probably not even those mints. 
You could try full. 

235
00:13:04,380 --> 00:13:07,100
I mean that's the same thing, 
just a full spectrum gummy or a 

236
00:13:07,100 --> 00:13:09,740
full spectrum tincture. 
Like that's I guess the same 

237
00:13:09,740 --> 00:13:12,980
thing as those microdose ones 
because it's basically the same 

238
00:13:12,980 --> 00:13:15,510
thing as that. 
Because of the personages, I 

239
00:13:15,510 --> 00:13:19,150
would say teacher or those, the 
hard pressed ones. 

240
00:13:19,270 --> 00:13:24,670
I find that gummies are so 
missed, misdosed. 

241
00:13:25,230 --> 00:13:29,190
Like when we were getting our 
medical cards, the guy behind 

242
00:13:29,190 --> 00:13:30,630
the front desk was over there 
talking to me. 

243
00:13:30,630 --> 00:13:33,470
But she's like, oh, these ones 
are, you know, tested, they can 

244
00:13:33,830 --> 00:13:37,270
cut it up in the exact way and 
they get the right dose on all 

245
00:13:37,270 --> 00:13:38,990
that. 
And that's not the way the food 

246
00:13:38,990 --> 00:13:43,170
works, regardless of however, 
that's why the gummy is a whole 

247
00:13:43,170 --> 00:13:44,970
piece. 
If it was meant to be in smaller

248
00:13:44,970 --> 00:13:46,530
doses, they would have already 
done that. 

249
00:13:47,170 --> 00:13:51,330
And so when you you're supposed 
to consume the whole thing, you 

250
00:13:51,330 --> 00:13:54,570
could eat a portion of that 
gummy and then not not be 

251
00:13:55,250 --> 00:13:57,570
anything in it at all. 
It could be a very trace 

252
00:13:57,570 --> 00:13:59,970
amounts, but all of it could 
have sat on the bottom. 

253
00:14:00,130 --> 00:14:03,090
Yeah it's all collected in one 
section of that gummy now we 

254
00:14:03,090 --> 00:14:06,290
have no idea. 
It's so it's that's why you have

255
00:14:06,290 --> 00:14:11,380
a full gummy when people cut 
those up and it's like 5050 if 

256
00:14:11,540 --> 00:14:13,900
if you're going to get the right
dose but then when they're hard 

257
00:14:13,900 --> 00:14:18,740
pressed into those ones they 
it's it it's you know plus or 

258
00:14:18,740 --> 00:14:22,700
minus with each one. 
But at least it's a lot closer 

259
00:14:23,140 --> 00:14:28,860
to that and understanding that 
one not like with full THC right

260
00:14:29,260 --> 00:14:34,060
flour when I give that damn. 
I I would like to say that I 

261
00:14:34,060 --> 00:14:38,750
would like to try doing that but
even one time when I told him 

262
00:14:38,750 --> 00:14:41,950
you know what if you're in my 
presence, I'll do it with you. 

263
00:14:42,950 --> 00:14:45,590
I chickened out. 
I was just like I I do not want 

264
00:14:45,590 --> 00:14:47,790
to contribute to. 
I was like you know what I think

265
00:14:47,790 --> 00:14:51,270
what we need to do is go every 
day with CBD and how that 

266
00:14:51,270 --> 00:14:55,350
affects you and then we'll see 
what happens from there. 

267
00:14:55,350 --> 00:15:01,270
But then at the same time for me
it's there's that legal barrier 

268
00:15:01,630 --> 00:15:03,470
that I think about what am I 
doing? 

269
00:15:03,470 --> 00:15:08,310
What am I showing him? 
But at the same time, you know, 

270
00:15:08,310 --> 00:15:10,950
we're educators here. 
We're we're always talking about

271
00:15:10,950 --> 00:15:13,430
this. 
We're we're contact creators in 

272
00:15:13,430 --> 00:15:15,750
the sense of we're trying to be 
able to put cannabis in a better

273
00:15:15,750 --> 00:15:19,350
light. 
And yet I'm afraid to have my 

274
00:15:19,350 --> 00:15:22,070
son take it. 
And a lot of the reasons come 

275
00:15:22,070 --> 00:15:26,350
from who I am and what I use it 
for as opposed to just somebody 

276
00:15:26,350 --> 00:15:30,030
wanting to get high. 
If you're getting high to attend

277
00:15:30,030 --> 00:15:31,750
to, think that you're running 
away from something or you're 

278
00:15:31,750 --> 00:15:34,550
trying to numb something, dull 
something, and it's not 

279
00:15:34,550 --> 00:15:38,100
necessarily in the fashion of, 
hey, this is going to help me 

280
00:15:38,100 --> 00:15:41,220
accomplish XY&Z. 
Now he could go to school, but 

281
00:15:41,420 --> 00:15:45,700
that's going to last him 1 1/2 
classes and then what? 

282
00:15:46,540 --> 00:15:47,940
Then he's going to want to use 
more. 

283
00:15:48,100 --> 00:15:52,100
Well, it depends on what it is 
and potentially, like you said, 

284
00:15:52,100 --> 00:15:56,180
maybe a tincture and if you do 
that and it's CBD and that helps

285
00:15:56,180 --> 00:16:00,180
him focus, then you know, maybe 
that takes away some of the 

286
00:16:00,180 --> 00:16:04,500
anxiety and stuff because we 
think about it and growing up my

287
00:16:04,500 --> 00:16:08,090
life wasn't hard like in the 
sense. 

288
00:16:08,090 --> 00:16:11,090
In a sense, does that mean for 
other people on the outside, 

289
00:16:11,090 --> 00:16:12,770
look at anybody like Brandon's 
got a pretty good life. 

290
00:16:12,930 --> 00:16:17,090
Yeah, but and they would think 
that and they you look at it and

291
00:16:17,090 --> 00:16:20,010
go, hey, you know they might not
have anxiety or stress or 

292
00:16:20,010 --> 00:16:24,610
depression or whatever because 
they just why would they Their 

293
00:16:24,610 --> 00:16:27,770
life so easy. 
But yet it's, you know we don't 

294
00:16:27,770 --> 00:16:32,130
walk a mile or we don't, we've 
never walked every mile in their

295
00:16:32,130 --> 00:16:33,210
shoes. 
We don't know what. 

296
00:16:33,670 --> 00:16:35,590
Every thought that's gone 
through their head. 

297
00:16:35,950 --> 00:16:39,550
Everything for everything else. 
So I guess same with our kids 

298
00:16:40,030 --> 00:16:43,790
and maybe if we can help them 
just introduce it in something 

299
00:16:43,790 --> 00:16:48,110
low like a CBD thing go let's 
help you use this because you're

300
00:16:48,110 --> 00:16:49,990
right. 
I do use this for medication and

301
00:16:49,990 --> 00:16:54,190
stuff and it helps me with focus
or pain or stress or whatever it

302
00:16:54,190 --> 00:16:59,270
is that you're using that for. 
Yeah, but maybe because right 

303
00:16:59,270 --> 00:17:03,030
now it's hey, I don't know fully
how this. 

304
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:07,359
Interacts with your young mind. 
I would prefer that we start 

305
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:11,240
with like CBD. 
Yeah, because we know a lot more

306
00:17:11,599 --> 00:17:14,359
that that doesn't have the same 
psychoactive effects. 

307
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:18,079
So it's not going to have the 
same altering effects of like 

308
00:17:18,079 --> 00:17:22,040
the hippocampus or anything that
most of the THC is the 

309
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,920
concerning thing. 
And even then all of the 

310
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,480
studies, it's all dose 
dependent, it's all high dose. 

311
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:31,920
So if it's a micro dose, is that
harmful? 

312
00:17:32,360 --> 00:17:35,400
Is that going to be bad? 
Or is it truly going to be 

313
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,640
beneficial because it's 
introducing cannabinoids into 

314
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,920
their endocannabinoid system? 
That's probably not perfect 

315
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:43,520
anyway. 
Yeah, no true. 

316
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,040
I I see that. 
I see that point too. 

317
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:47,880
It's. 
That's a hard one. 

318
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:49,920
Like I know. 
And I've seen the benefits of 

319
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:51,880
that for migraines. 
Mine too. 

320
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:55,240
Stress for all of that. 
But I also want to give them, 

321
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,760
like, you know what? 
Cbd's great. 

322
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:01,440
I mean, it's awesome for pain. 
It's awesome for anxiety. 

323
00:18:02,190 --> 00:18:05,990
Now I take it since we've been 
working with Sun's oil? 

324
00:18:06,430 --> 00:18:08,430
Yeah, Sun's Oil stuff is 
fantastic. 

325
00:18:08,430 --> 00:18:11,470
It's amazing. 
I use it every day, multiple 

326
00:18:11,470 --> 00:18:14,510
times during the day. 
I've got a bit of a cold right 

327
00:18:14,510 --> 00:18:16,190
now but you wouldn't be able to 
tell. 

328
00:18:16,190 --> 00:18:18,110
But I'm. 
I'm hopped up on quite a bit of 

329
00:18:18,110 --> 00:18:22,750
it and a little bit of day Quil,
but I feel good. 

330
00:18:22,870 --> 00:18:25,390
I feel really good. 
But it it's good for those 

331
00:18:25,390 --> 00:18:28,510
parts. 
But I'll tell you what THC when 

332
00:18:28,510 --> 00:18:32,550
my stomach is upset, if I've got
intestinal problem, which that's

333
00:18:32,550 --> 00:18:33,910
what we got. 
I mean, if you have a nuts up 

334
00:18:33,910 --> 00:18:36,110
stomach, it means your 
intestines are upset, not your 

335
00:18:36,110 --> 00:18:37,870
actual stomach. 
Your stomach's like right over 

336
00:18:37,870 --> 00:18:40,710
here and then your intestines 
are right over here, right? 

337
00:18:41,550 --> 00:18:46,790
But when you have that cannabis 
just takes that away. 

338
00:18:46,910 --> 00:18:49,430
When I've had stomach bugs. 
When you've had stomach bugs. 

339
00:18:49,630 --> 00:18:52,990
Well, supposedly cannabis is one
of the only things that can help

340
00:18:52,990 --> 00:18:55,790
cure Crohn's, which with modern 
medicine is supposed to be an 

341
00:18:55,790 --> 00:18:57,950
incurable disease, right? 
I mean, it's completely 

342
00:18:57,950 --> 00:19:00,200
manageable. 
It becomes a I mean, there are 

343
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:04,920
so many different things, like 
if I'm overly anxious or I can't

344
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:10,960
sleep, Like I don't take sleep 
meds, I don't take pain meds. 

345
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:15,800
Typically I, you know I will if 
I mean, I've got a lot of real 

346
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:19,200
bad injuries too. 
And I sometimes cannabis just 

347
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,500
doesn't reach it at all. 
Just every once in a while flare

348
00:19:22,500 --> 00:19:24,820
up like my ACL tear, like my 
shoulder. 

349
00:19:25,500 --> 00:19:27,980
You know, I got my lower back. 
Not as bad as yours, but it's 

350
00:19:27,980 --> 00:19:32,220
still there and it's it sucks. 
But with cannabis it's 

351
00:19:32,220 --> 00:19:36,260
manageable. 
Like I feel that the best 

352
00:19:36,260 --> 00:19:39,500
attribute, the best preworkout 
is cannabis. 

353
00:19:39,500 --> 00:19:43,660
Like I don't I don't use uppers 
or a bunch of other stuff. 

354
00:19:43,660 --> 00:19:45,380
I use this. 
So when I've got all these 

355
00:19:45,380 --> 00:19:50,600
positives right here and and 
I've also have this son who's on

356
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:53,400
the autism, autism spectrum, 
right. 

357
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,200
So he would be considered in the
older one, he'd be Asperger's, 

358
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:58,360
right? 
Highfunctioning, knows a lot of 

359
00:19:58,360 --> 00:20:03,200
stuff, but at the same time he 
doesn't pick up on social cues. 

360
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,640
But I know that they've done a 
lot of studies with cannabis and

361
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:10,880
autism and it's been beneficial.
Just true. 

362
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:14,280
So in those instances, it's just
like any other medication, but 

363
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:18,920
with way less side effects. 
And it is. 

364
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,960
I mean, it's just so taboo 
because of what everyone's been 

365
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:25,400
taught for so long. 
But I know there's tons of 

366
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:30,080
parents out there who who like, 
properly dose their children for

367
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:32,960
certain things. 
I've read about it in tons of 

368
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,880
places. 
If you guys are comfortable 

369
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,400
sharing your story with us, we 
don't necessarily have to share 

370
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:40,000
it on air. 
Well, we don't have to say a 

371
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:41,960
name. 
I mean, there's a thing like we 

372
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:43,760
as parents, we have this 
struggle. 

373
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:51,130
Do we give them? 
What helps us And if we were 

374
00:20:51,130 --> 00:20:54,730
past all of the, you know, it's 
like the Old West. 

375
00:20:54,730 --> 00:21:01,570
The Old West was the last kind 
of anarchy, free reign that we 

376
00:21:01,570 --> 00:21:06,050
had as the United States because
then after that it was a it was 

377
00:21:06,050 --> 00:21:08,570
a world of laws. 
That's what. 

378
00:21:08,570 --> 00:21:12,450
Dang. 
It's the C note, But it was a 

379
00:21:12,450 --> 00:21:15,730
world of laws and we've fallen 
into that. 

380
00:21:15,730 --> 00:21:18,260
So now. 
When we look at that, it's not 

381
00:21:18,260 --> 00:21:21,940
necessarily the fear of that 
one, it's what example. 

382
00:21:21,980 --> 00:21:27,460
And I was thinking about it when
you were talking, if we show an 

383
00:21:27,460 --> 00:21:33,140
example of being productive, of 
being responsible, of not being 

384
00:21:33,140 --> 00:21:37,060
belligerent, because I find it 
very hard to be belligerent on 

385
00:21:37,060 --> 00:21:39,860
cannabis. 
But at the same time, it's real 

386
00:21:39,860 --> 00:21:42,940
easy to get into the Stony 
mentality, which is, that's 

387
00:21:42,940 --> 00:21:44,440
what. 
That's what the negative 

388
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,760
connotation is with those on the
outside of cannabis going, Oh 

389
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,320
yeah, I had a brother. 
He smoked pot growing up. 

390
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:51,760
He's an idiot. 
Oh yeah. 

391
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:54,320
That was always like smoking 
cannabis was. 

392
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:58,080
You're an idiot for sure. 
And you know what? 

393
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,840
That didn't even have to come 
from the drug war. 

394
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:02,760
That came from our own culture. 
Yeah. 

395
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:06,320
Well, you think, Did you go to 
that family gathering of all the

396
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:08,640
cousins that we did? 
You were there. 

397
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:12,000
Yeah, for everyone at home. 
I'm rocking the DAB tech trio, 

398
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,200
which is fantastic because it's 
like the perfect device for 

399
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,440
concentrates. 
You can do a 510 thread, you can

400
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:21,720
do this little oven with it, or 
you can do the like the dab 

401
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:25,920
straw and just bring your little
puck and do it on the go in this

402
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,680
fantastic Canna style bong. 
Yeah, that is way cool. 

403
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,360
We were going to use this one. 
We'll do it another episode. 

404
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,960
It's Dad. 
Do you tell it utilian? 

405
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,800
Utilian This is an amazing dab 
rig. 

406
00:22:39,360 --> 00:22:41,400
Cool part. 
This is the coolest part. 

407
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:48,360
This little tool here that you 
put your your dab on, you put 

408
00:22:48,360 --> 00:22:52,280
your wax on it, and then when 
you put it in here, kind of just

409
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:53,920
seals itself a little rubber 
thing. 

410
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:55,360
That's magnets. 
Set it in there. 

411
00:22:55,360 --> 00:22:57,120
You don't even rub it on the 
side. 

412
00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,000
Which is totally different 
because most bangers you're 

413
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,840
going to have to rub it in trips
right down into the center of 

414
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:03,800
it. 
From the Heat and it's super 

415
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:05,560
cool. 
It's super unique. 

416
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:09,080
Yeah, as you can see there, I 
love the feel of it too. 

417
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,800
Oh yeah, it's got that texture. 
It's almost feels like a, I 

418
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:17,360
don't know, so cool but. 
We'll have it on another 

419
00:23:17,360 --> 00:23:18,840
episode. 
Yeah, we'll get back to that. 

420
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,800
But like I was saying about 
family gathering, like you said,

421
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,840
it's the mindset of what's been 
taught or just culture. 

422
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:28,680
And so my cousin was like, 
making all of these jokes about 

423
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:32,200
how, you know, using cannabis 
makes you dumb and. 

424
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:36,470
Who is that Right? 
Oh, he's making like joke after 

425
00:23:36,470 --> 00:23:41,070
joke because it's just what is. 
So tough. 

426
00:23:41,070 --> 00:23:43,430
That's what was perpetuating for
a very long time. 

427
00:23:43,430 --> 00:23:46,070
And and but it wasn't just 
perpetuated, it was actually 

428
00:23:46,070 --> 00:23:48,750
shown like, this is your brain 
on drugs. 

429
00:23:48,830 --> 00:23:51,230
This is your brain on marijuana.
I'm talking about the people I 

430
00:23:51,230 --> 00:23:53,110
knew in high school. 
Those guys were idiots. 

431
00:23:53,390 --> 00:23:55,990
I didn't know anyone in high 
school who smoked weed. 

432
00:23:56,190 --> 00:23:58,630
Well, yeah, I mean, considered. 
So I when I went, I went to 

433
00:23:58,630 --> 00:24:02,600
public schools. 
And Brandon's fancy he went to. 

434
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:07,120
I got kicked out of my high 
school for not going to class 

435
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:10,560
and my parents didn't want me to
go to the troubled kids school, 

436
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,320
so I got sent to a private 
school. 

437
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,560
Yeah, and I mean an LDS based 
private school, So our religious

438
00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:18,420
one it was. 
Yeah, I don't think I would 

439
00:24:18,420 --> 00:24:18,980
have. 
I would. 

440
00:24:18,980 --> 00:24:20,740
I don't think I would have 
stayed with the religion after 

441
00:24:20,740 --> 00:24:24,100
that, which is interesting 
because now I do not follow any 

442
00:24:24,180 --> 00:24:27,380
no absolutely slightest. 
Yeah, but that's the thing. 

443
00:24:27,380 --> 00:24:29,260
It's it's kind of funny. 
I mean, you think like, oh, 

444
00:24:29,260 --> 00:24:31,580
that's gonna really help you 
that this, like, probably 

445
00:24:31,580 --> 00:24:34,620
absolutely pushed you away. 
And I was the only one out of my

446
00:24:34,620 --> 00:24:37,620
family to go there and I was the
very first one to leave. 

447
00:24:37,900 --> 00:24:39,260
Yep. 
Yep. 

448
00:24:39,900 --> 00:24:45,380
No, I mean that's that's funny. 
No, but going back today said 

449
00:24:45,380 --> 00:24:48,940
that. 
It it also what makes it really 

450
00:24:48,940 --> 00:24:55,740
funny now is that that comment 
made by you know our cousin he 

451
00:24:56,460 --> 00:24:59,660
it's not his fault, but at the 
same time it is his fault 

452
00:25:00,140 --> 00:25:02,540
because it's so prevalent in the
world today. 

453
00:25:03,060 --> 00:25:05,740
And again, that's some of the 
reasons why when we had talked 

454
00:25:05,740 --> 00:25:08,740
about this, you know, starting 
this up and and being involved 

455
00:25:08,740 --> 00:25:13,580
in cannabis before we started 
this, it's we wanted to get rid 

456
00:25:13,580 --> 00:25:16,260
of that culture. 
Because that hurts us more than 

457
00:25:16,260 --> 00:25:19,300
anything else, and I think that 
still sticks in my head. 

458
00:25:19,300 --> 00:25:21,820
It's not that I'm contributing 
to that. 

459
00:25:21,820 --> 00:25:25,540
One is that I don't want to 
contribute to that type of 

460
00:25:26,060 --> 00:25:32,060
mindset, yes, and to that type 
of perception that is coming off

461
00:25:32,060 --> 00:25:35,620
and going, hey, I'm a Stoner. 
Yeah, but there's nothing wrong 

462
00:25:35,620 --> 00:25:36,980
with being a Stoner. 
There's not. 

463
00:25:37,100 --> 00:25:39,780
But it's just intent. 
It's the connotation that is 

464
00:25:39,980 --> 00:25:43,700
like, around it of like, stoners
are bad people, right? 

465
00:25:43,700 --> 00:25:47,100
They're not, dude. 
It's like every time we've got, 

466
00:25:47,540 --> 00:25:50,700
you know, when the times we've 
gotten people together here and 

467
00:25:50,700 --> 00:25:53,220
we're all smoking, it's awesome.
Oh, it's amazing. 

468
00:25:53,340 --> 00:25:56,140
Great conversations, A lot of 
laughter. 

469
00:25:56,500 --> 00:25:58,860
A lot of love. 
Love always. 

470
00:25:58,860 --> 00:26:02,900
It's so cool, right? 
And then you switch that. 

471
00:26:03,290 --> 00:26:07,050
And have a bunch of booze. 
There's wild, stupid shit going 

472
00:26:07,050 --> 00:26:10,090
on. 
Random people hooking up 

473
00:26:10,090 --> 00:26:12,650
Someone's boobs are out. 
Yeah, who knows and. 

474
00:26:12,810 --> 00:26:15,250
Worse than that, when people are
doing dumb shit and getting 

475
00:26:15,250 --> 00:26:17,570
themselves hurt, you don't see 
that with cannabis. 

476
00:26:18,010 --> 00:26:20,890
And that's what I love about it.
But then what is always 

477
00:26:20,890 --> 00:26:23,010
associated with it? 
Well, it's a gateway drug. 

478
00:26:23,170 --> 00:26:27,490
I think that's horseshit. 
And people constantly being able

479
00:26:27,490 --> 00:26:30,930
to say it's a gateway drug. 
The first thing I asked them is.

480
00:26:31,290 --> 00:26:34,410
Oh, so you've used cannabis? 
Yep, right. 

481
00:26:34,410 --> 00:26:39,730
And they go, well, not me. 
And I'm like, oh, OK, so you're 

482
00:26:39,730 --> 00:26:42,330
an expert? 
Because I'm like, actually, I 

483
00:26:42,330 --> 00:26:46,650
feel like white coats is a 
gateway drug to more 

484
00:26:46,650 --> 00:26:49,890
prescription drugs and more 
prescription drugs and more 

485
00:26:49,890 --> 00:26:51,930
prescription drugs. 
Well then you go from 

486
00:26:51,930 --> 00:26:53,730
prescription drugs. 
That's why you go to hard drugs,

487
00:26:53,730 --> 00:26:55,970
because prescription drugs are 
so fucking expensive. 

488
00:26:56,370 --> 00:26:59,130
So then it's okay. 
So you tell me which is worse, 

489
00:26:59,130 --> 00:27:02,210
the cannabis that I use and 
function and. 

490
00:27:02,650 --> 00:27:05,170
Or the synthetic heroin that you
allow to be PF2. 

491
00:27:05,250 --> 00:27:10,410
But how many people who take 
actual pills are like, I'm in a 

492
00:27:10,410 --> 00:27:11,490
fog. 
I'm not there. 

493
00:27:11,490 --> 00:27:17,090
I'm like legit just gone. 
Yeah, and that's I think that's 

494
00:27:17,090 --> 00:27:21,250
the part too, that really weighs
on me as a parent and and I'm 

495
00:27:21,250 --> 00:27:23,210
sure it weighs on you too, 
because it's always that. 

496
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:27,880
I would love to be able to just 
give my kids cannabis without 

497
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:31,520
worrying about what the 
perception is for them, not 

498
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:36,000
necessarily for me because, for 
example, this is a funny story 

499
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,120
and these all has to do with 
perception. 

500
00:27:39,120 --> 00:27:43,880
When my son, my oldest son, Max,
he's 16 now when he was three or

501
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:48,440
four, he was in preschool and I 
was playing a video game on 

502
00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,880
PlayStation 3 called Uncharted. 
You played that one, right? 

503
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:55,890
Yeah, and. 
Do you remember the publication 

504
00:27:55,890 --> 00:27:57,130
company? 
What their name is? 

505
00:27:57,650 --> 00:28:00,130
Naughty Dog. 
Right. 

506
00:28:00,570 --> 00:28:03,810
So Naughty Dog, my son doesn't 
know what I'm playing, but he 

507
00:28:03,810 --> 00:28:07,490
asked me what did that say on 
the on the screen because it has

508
00:28:07,490 --> 00:28:09,970
a paw print and I said that's 
Naughty Dog. 

509
00:28:10,250 --> 00:28:13,330
He says is this hard? 
I said it's very hard for kids. 

510
00:28:13,330 --> 00:28:16,050
It's very hard. 
And he goes 00 Ki take him to 

511
00:28:16,050 --> 00:28:19,770
preschool one day and he asks me
right in front of the teacher, 

512
00:28:20,170 --> 00:28:21,930
Hey dad, is your Naughty Dog 
hard? 

513
00:28:28,070 --> 00:28:31,070
It's still an outgoing joke with
me and my wife, but. 

514
00:28:31,910 --> 00:28:34,310
In front of that woman, what's 
the perception? 

515
00:28:34,430 --> 00:28:38,070
Yeah, some whole. 
You dirty mother, right? 

516
00:28:38,070 --> 00:28:40,630
What are you talking about? 
In front of your kid? 

517
00:28:40,670 --> 00:28:42,070
Yeah. 
What are you doing in front of 

518
00:28:42,150 --> 00:28:44,510
your kid? 
Like, what sort of piece of shit

519
00:28:44,510 --> 00:28:45,510
are you? 
Right. 

520
00:28:45,630 --> 00:28:47,350
And you're like now. 
All of a sudden, they're calling

521
00:28:47,350 --> 00:28:50,750
Chris Hansen to bust me. 
And we've got to. 

522
00:28:51,580 --> 00:28:53,580
Recordings of you saying that 
you're done. 

523
00:28:53,580 --> 00:28:56,180
Naughty Dog was hard like 
bullshit like that. 

524
00:28:56,540 --> 00:28:59,220
And so that is in my head when 
talking to my son. 

525
00:28:59,220 --> 00:29:05,100
If the perception of me giving 
him cannabis is it, it's not 

526
00:29:05,100 --> 00:29:07,180
that I'm giving him something 
illegal. 

527
00:29:07,180 --> 00:29:10,660
What I'm giving him is an 
opportunity for him to be able 

528
00:29:10,660 --> 00:29:14,300
to question me on what's okay 
and what's not okay. 

529
00:29:14,660 --> 00:29:17,420
Well, you've let me do this 
before, Dad, so why wouldn't you

530
00:29:17,420 --> 00:29:20,310
let me do this? 
And so I think that's where it 

531
00:29:20,310 --> 00:29:25,430
stops me is his level of 
maturity is what keeps me from 

532
00:29:25,470 --> 00:29:27,150
wanting him to be able to 
experience that. 

533
00:29:27,510 --> 00:29:29,790
I know plenty of people who said
I've been smoking pot since I 

534
00:29:29,790 --> 00:29:33,790
was 8 years old. 
One Where the fuck were your 

535
00:29:33,790 --> 00:29:37,550
parents, Right? 
I wouldn't let my 8 year old do 

536
00:29:37,830 --> 00:29:39,470
my little phoenix. 
One year older. 

537
00:29:40,270 --> 00:29:41,150
Nope. 
Yeah. 

538
00:29:41,150 --> 00:29:43,710
I can't even imagine. 
Even out here, she's 11. 

539
00:29:43,790 --> 00:29:44,750
Like, no. 
Nope. 

540
00:29:44,950 --> 00:29:46,590
Hard pass. 
Haley's 14. 

541
00:29:46,590 --> 00:29:49,560
He's like no. 
Yeah, I see that where it goes, 

542
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,080
it's the level of maturity that 
I think is there. 

543
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:56,000
And and the hard discussion is 
like, OK, so let's let's put 

544
00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:01,120
into hypothetical. 
I catch him using cannabis. 

545
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:05,360
Yeah, you catch Haley using 
cannabis. 

546
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:10,920
So Haley, what would you do? 
It'd be difficult, but at the 

547
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,440
same time I would ask her where 
she got it. 

548
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:17,120
Yeah, not to bust the person, 
but more for quality control of 

549
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,230
like, do you know what this is 
like? 

550
00:30:20,990 --> 00:30:22,350
And this? 
It's the same thing. 

551
00:30:22,430 --> 00:30:26,910
So Addy's got ADHD, she 
struggles focusing. 

552
00:30:27,190 --> 00:30:32,310
We go on rides sometimes and 
then I worry when she's not 

553
00:30:32,310 --> 00:30:35,510
paying attention because I see 
that she is like wobbly or 

554
00:30:35,510 --> 00:30:38,030
something. 
And my first thought is she's 

555
00:30:38,030 --> 00:30:41,670
going to eat shit and she's 
going to get really hurt, and I 

556
00:30:41,670 --> 00:30:45,330
don't want her to get hurt. 
And so in that thing, I think 

557
00:30:45,330 --> 00:30:48,250
it's the exact same thing of 
looking at it and going, I don't

558
00:30:48,250 --> 00:30:51,810
want you getting hurt. 
Yeah, What is in that like? 

559
00:30:52,370 --> 00:30:55,410
Because that's the parental 
thing in me of like, I want to 

560
00:30:55,410 --> 00:30:58,050
protect my kid. 
I want to keep them safe. 

561
00:30:58,650 --> 00:31:02,410
Well, I I think about the times 
where I've taken too much and I 

562
00:31:02,410 --> 00:31:06,370
didn't know my level. 
I didn't know where I couldn't 

563
00:31:06,370 --> 00:31:08,930
go, but no kid is ever taught 
that either. 

564
00:31:09,010 --> 00:31:11,290
No. 
And that's OK. 

565
00:31:11,290 --> 00:31:13,010
So this is a really funny story 
too. 

566
00:31:13,380 --> 00:31:15,460
You remember that guy I told you
about who caught his kid with 

567
00:31:15,460 --> 00:31:19,140
carts? 
So the guy's an ex cop from 

568
00:31:19,140 --> 00:31:21,700
Seattle, right? 
We grew up together, but he was 

569
00:31:21,700 --> 00:31:24,380
out there. 
Being Seattle cop is no joke for

570
00:31:24,380 --> 00:31:26,140
all those Seattle people out 
there. 

571
00:31:26,140 --> 00:31:28,140
Like, you know, you may hate the
cops, but that's no joke. 

572
00:31:28,140 --> 00:31:30,900
It's a very stressful thing. 
It it ruined this man. 

573
00:31:32,060 --> 00:31:35,540
He has severe PTSD to this day 
and just because of the 

574
00:31:35,540 --> 00:31:38,420
interactions have I I'm. 
I don't know if you know Seattle

575
00:31:38,420 --> 00:31:39,780
cops. 
Just like, you know I don't know

576
00:31:39,780 --> 00:31:41,900
what that is. 
But my life's been pretty easy. 

577
00:31:42,410 --> 00:31:44,690
But he's had a lot of traumatic 
things happen that he's been 

578
00:31:44,690 --> 00:31:47,170
able to see, and it got to a 
point where it broke him. 

579
00:31:47,890 --> 00:31:51,370
And so he didn't. 
I mean, he we grew up together. 

580
00:31:51,370 --> 00:31:55,330
We drank together. 
But cannabis wasn't a big thing 

581
00:31:55,690 --> 00:31:59,090
in my town growing up. 
There was a few people that did 

582
00:31:59,090 --> 00:32:00,930
it, but those guys were 
perpetual idiots. 

583
00:32:01,370 --> 00:32:03,450
Yeah, they're just hardcore 
stuff, man. 

584
00:32:03,450 --> 00:32:05,570
This does the plant, man. 
It's for you. 

585
00:32:05,570 --> 00:32:08,850
It's from God and like, fuck, 
shut up, right? 

586
00:32:09,010 --> 00:32:11,130
It was so annoying. 
But this guy he. 

587
00:32:11,460 --> 00:32:14,260
He he said, you know, he's 
telling me and he he acts like, 

588
00:32:14,260 --> 00:32:18,420
he's like an old cowboy. 
He's like, yeah, I cut my son 

589
00:32:18,420 --> 00:32:22,300
with the some of that marijuana 
going out there and all I'm 

590
00:32:22,300 --> 00:32:24,460
thinking is like, why are you 
talking like an old person? 

591
00:32:24,620 --> 00:32:26,540
Yeah, we're the same age. 
What the fuck? 

592
00:32:26,780 --> 00:32:29,700
So I was like, all right, cool. 
And he goes, yeah, he's like, I 

593
00:32:29,700 --> 00:32:33,620
caught him with, you know, some 
of those, those those vape 

594
00:32:33,620 --> 00:32:36,180
cartridges. 
And I'm like, Oh yeah, how many?

595
00:32:36,660 --> 00:32:38,340
The three of them, how big were 
they? 

596
00:32:38,740 --> 00:32:44,420
He gives me a measurement of a 
gram cart and I'm like okay, so 

597
00:32:44,420 --> 00:32:47,740
he's like 3 grams of. 
So he's like, I I found them and

598
00:32:47,740 --> 00:32:49,140
I put them on the table in front
of us. 

599
00:32:49,140 --> 00:32:54,860
And I said, son, what are these?
He, my son was scared. 

600
00:32:55,340 --> 00:32:59,300
And he said, you know, Dad, 
they're these. 

601
00:32:59,740 --> 00:33:03,460
And he goes, okay, I'm going to 
teach you a lesson and I'm going

602
00:33:03,460 --> 00:33:05,300
to think of please don't, please
don't be. 

603
00:33:05,300 --> 00:33:07,420
That person who caught their kid
with a pack of smoke says You're

604
00:33:07,420 --> 00:33:10,080
going to smoke these all. 
So it'll break him of it, right?

605
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:11,800
All I'm thinking is like, oh, 
cool, you're going to put your 

606
00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:14,840
kid in an induced panic attack 
by doing that. 

607
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:17,160
So he's like, you know what I 
did? 

608
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:20,960
And I'm like, here comes I 
smoked all three of those right 

609
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:22,320
in front of him at the one 
session. 

610
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:24,560
And I'm thinking, Oh my gosh, 
what? 

611
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:26,320
You're nuts, bro. 
Yeah. 

612
00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:28,120
Like, I would never do that. 
No. 

613
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:30,200
And he smoked on like, what we 
doing. 

614
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,560
He's like, I was drooling. 
I was throwing up. 

615
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,480
I was hallucinating. 
And I'm like, you serious? 

616
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:36,840
He goes, yeah. 
And I talked to his wife and 

617
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,620
she's like, yeah, he did that. 
Like, that's nuts. 

618
00:33:40,260 --> 00:33:42,100
But that's the thing. 
You don't want to let your kid 

619
00:33:42,100 --> 00:33:43,580
go through that. 
Like your kids not going to 

620
00:33:43,580 --> 00:33:46,020
know. 
Like, you know, and I don't want

621
00:33:46,020 --> 00:33:47,860
my kid going around like, you 
know, this guy's over there 

622
00:33:47,980 --> 00:33:51,380
hitting a pen outside of class 
and he's like, hey dude, don't 

623
00:33:51,380 --> 00:33:53,700
let it go to blinker because 
it's going to mess up your oil 

624
00:33:53,860 --> 00:33:56,500
or going, hey, how many times 
have you hit that? 

625
00:33:56,500 --> 00:33:58,380
Well, that's about this much of 
A dose. 

626
00:33:58,820 --> 00:34:01,060
You probably don't want to go 
too much further, no? 

627
00:34:02,100 --> 00:34:04,300
It's like trying to tell 
Phoenix, like, only have one 

628
00:34:04,300 --> 00:34:05,460
cookie. 
Yeah, right. 

629
00:34:05,500 --> 00:34:06,980
He's like, it's not going to. 
All right. 

630
00:34:07,140 --> 00:34:08,820
Well, as soon as you turn the 
back, I'm gonna eat five. 

631
00:34:09,300 --> 00:34:10,820
I don't know. 
Let us know your guys's 

632
00:34:10,900 --> 00:34:13,540
thoughts. 
Yeah, it's it's a hard topic, 

633
00:34:13,540 --> 00:34:16,860
but definitely let us know. 
Very curious. 

634
00:34:17,100 --> 00:34:19,540
Yeah, it's it's crazy. 
I know. 

635
00:34:19,659 --> 00:34:22,260
All right, all right. 
Catch y'all next week. 

636
00:34:22,420 --> 00:34:22,820
Take care.
