Aubrey Amatelli The largest payment processor in the world handles cannabis in Canada. In the U.S., they will not touch it. That’s the gap.

Aubrey Amatelli left JP Morgan believing that if you followed the rules, aligned with card brand requirements, and structured things correctly, you could build a compliant, stable payment product. Then came Mastercard shutdowns, a failed tech partner that cost six figures, and a stretch where 5,000 dispensaries lost payment access in a matter of weeks. What came out of that was a different approach to building in cannabis. Redundancy is not a feature. It is the product.

This week we sit down with Aubrey Amatelli to discuss the following:
• JP Morgan to cannabis payments
• A failed partner and six figures lost
• Why moving from cash to card changes ticket size

Sometimes being feared is the influence you need because access is not the problem.

Politicians say "we'll take care of this." Gretchen Gailey has a different approach: stab them in the back, push them down the stairs, and take credit for the fall. It's time to put fear behind cannabis.

She spent 20 years on Capitol Hill. She's watched cannabis show up once a year for fly-ins, throw money at the wrong politicians, and wonder why nothing changes. This episode breaks down why incrementalism is the only path, why banking matters more than you think, and why the industry needs to stop picking out curtains when it hasn't built a basement.

This week we sit down with Gretchen Gailey:

  • Stab them in the back politics
  • Curtains before basement problem
  • Project Champion playbook

52:16 - Final thoughts: how to stay engaged and educate the industry and policymakers

Summary: 

In this episode, Gretchen Gailey shares over 20 years of experience navigating Washington's complex cannabis legislation. We explore how industry players can effectively engage with policymakers, the importance of foundational regulations, and strategies to accelerate federal progress on cannabis reform.

Why I'll Sell Early (Unless This Happens) ft. Dan McDermitt Investing in cannabis requires a split personality.

Everyone thinks they're early. Dan McDermitt has been trading the sector for 15 years — through the Canadian boom, the Biden promise, and the slow bleed that followed. His take: if you've been through multiple pump-and-dump cycles, you're not early anymore. You're just still here.

This is a masterclass in separating trader psychology from fundamental conviction. Dan explains why he keeps a small position just to stay seated, why he already knows he'll sell early on the next catalyst, and why the moment everybody's talking about cannabis on Wall Street Bets is the moment you size up — not before.

  • Why traders sell early
  • Catalyst stacking thesis
  • MSOS mechanics breakdown

John Shute If you doubled your marketing spend tomorrow, would you double your sales?

Most cannabis marketing does not fail because teams spend too little. It fails because marketing is asked to create success while known problems remain unfixed. That is why marketing is often the first thing cut when results stall.

What has changed is that modern tracking makes attribution clearer and easier than ever. Attribution means understanding which actions actually drive revenue, not just traffic or activity.

This week we sit down with John Shute to discuss:

• Why marketing gets blamed for upstream failures
• How attribution reveals what is actually working
• Where most teams are missing

Brian Adams Exceptional extraction has long been treated as an art.
What separates the best teams is not creativity.
It is the ability to repeat quality, consistently.

And it is not SOP alone.

It is judgment applied consistently under real constraints. Constraints that define what is technically possible, operationally realistic, and economically viable.

Those constraints tart with understanding your system and tracking the right operational parameters at a level of detail most teams never reach.

That depth of understanding is what allows teams to produce a consistent, high-quality end product instead of relying on feel or memory.

This week we sit down with Brian Adams to discuss

  • How to balance SOPs with operator flexibility
  • How to think clearly about your extraction system and its limits
  • Whether rolling back adult use in Massachusetts is real or noise

]]> Thu, 29 Jan 2026 13:25:25 +0000 info@8threv.com (Brian Adams, Bryan Fields) https://the-dime-177afd40.simplecast.com/episodes/how-top-teams-balance-art-and-process-in-extraction-ft-brian-adams-ze3Us3dm Exceptional extraction has long been treated as an art.
What separates the best teams is not creativity.
It is the ability to repeat quality, consistently.

And it is not SOP alone.

It is judgment applied consistently under real constraints. Constraints that define what is technically possible, operationally realistic, and economically viable.

Those constraints tart with understanding your system and tracking the right operational parameters at a level of detail most teams never reach.

That depth of understanding is what allows teams to produce a consistent, high-quality end product instead of relying on feel or memory.

This week we sit down with Brian Adams to discuss

  • How to balance SOPs with operator flexibility
  • How to think clearly about your extraction system and its limits
  • Whether rolling back adult use in Massachusetts is real or noise

Bill Morachnick Before CBD was discussed by a President in the Oval Office, it was a medical necessity.

The Charlotte Figi story is well documented — and powerful.
Not because it was emotional, but because it forced a serious medical conversation.

Stories like Charlotte’s change how physicians, regulators, and institutions think about where cannabinoid therapy belongs — not as a last resort, but as a legitimate option.

Charlotte’s Web was built around that reality. By recognizing that cannabis does have medicinal properties — and that patients should have access to a plant-based option when it can materially improve quality of life — the company focused on trust, standards, and medical credibility first.

This week, we sit down with Bill Morachnick to break down:

  • Why CBD earned acceptance through medical trust, not consumer marketing
  • How physician comfort, reimbursement pathways, and standards changed the conversation
  • CBD in the Oval Office — and what that signals for the future of cannabis

They can alter your future strategy, shift your appetite for risk, and — if you’re patient — quietly set you up for success while others chase growth at any cost.

As with any company, “figuring it out” is part of the job. And sometimes, that figuring it out happens faster than you’d ever hope.

The challenges you face early in your cannabis journey become the lens you see the world through — for better or worse. Those lessons, combined with the financial discipline from previous chapters of life, shape your decision-making, your culture, and your tolerance for this chaotic industry.

And as cannabis braces for consolidation and a $6B debt wall, that slow, methodical approach might prove to be the ultimate advantage.

Putting your name on it only adds to the weight — and the responsibility — to make it work.

As with anything worth doing, there are difficult moments along the journey that demand a leap of faith.

If you want to be different, you have to be willing to swim against the current — to stand out long enough for customers to find their fit.

These decisions are easy to reflect on now, but the journey was anything but simple.

This week we sit down with Chris Ball, Founder of Ball Family Farms, to discuss:

  • The journey from origin to now — and the critical decisions that shaped it
  • How he’s constantly tinkering forward to stay ahead
  • The Rare Breed mentorship program and its impact on the next generation of growers

He discusses the importance of family in building his brand, the challenges of navigating the cannabis industry, and the significance of quality over quantity in product development. Chris also highlights the role of mentorship through his Rare Breed program, which aims to nurture new talent in the cannabis space. He emphasizes the need for innovation while maintaining a connection to the community and culture of cannabis. The conversation concludes with insights into the realities of being a CEO in the cannabis industry and the importance of resilience and adaptability.

What if one of those tools could save millions of lives—and the science is already here?

The world’s largest medical cannabis and cancer study—10,000 papers, ranked in the top 5% globally—shows overwhelming evidence that cannabis has medical benefits.

  • How this study is being used in rescheduling efforts
  • How vested interests fuel anti-cannabis research

]]> Largest Medical Cannabis & Cancer Study Ever: Can These Findings Push Rescheduling? ft Ryan Castle Ryan Castle, Kellan Finney, Bryan Fields 00:48:40 If you were given some of the worst news in the world, wouldn’t you expect your doctors to use every tool available? What if one of those tools could save millions of lives—and the science is already here? The world’s largest medical cannabis and cancer study—10,000 papers, ranked in the top 5% globally—shows overwhelming evidence that cannabis has medical benefits. If fully embraced, its impact on patients and medicine could be transformative. As science continues to unfold, sometimes it takes skeptics to dive deep and uncover what’s truly there, even when powerful interests push back.

Mitchell Osak Cannabis is chaotic by design. Vertical integration forces operators to run six or seven businesses at once — then replicate that model across states with different regulations, all without economies of scale. It’s no wonder the industry feels messy.

The bigger problem? Too many companies are chasing the wrong metrics and ignoring the lessons other industries already learned.

This week we sit down with Mitchell Osak — a veteran strategist across pharma, CPG, financial services, and cannabis — to unpack the hard truths and strategy lessons MSOs can’t afford to miss.

In this episode we cover:
• The wrong metrics driving cannabis off course — and which ones Mitch would track instead
• Why TAM slides are the biggest lie in cannabis strategy
•  Which playbooks cannabis should borrow from pharma, wine, and tech

Summary:

In this episode, Bryan Fields and Kellan Finney engage with Mitch Osak, a seasoned consultant in the cannabis industry. They explore Mitch's journey into cannabis consulting, the importance of strategic planning, and the challenges of standardization in the market. The conversation delves into the differences between large operators and middle market firms, the significance of understanding metrics, and the need for innovation. Mitch emphasizes the importance of learning from other industries, the role of AI, and the necessity for scenario planning in navigating the evolving landscape of cannabis. The episode concludes with insights on the future of the industry and the importance of external consultation.

Nadia Sabeh What if keeping the room a little too dry is killing your plants?
Humidity—and the HVAC that controls it—drives plant health, but air isn’t uniform across the room. The fix isn’t more AC; it’s dialing VPD so humidity, lights, airflow, and irrigation work together. Get it wrong and you lose yield and fail tests; get it right and buds stay sticky, healthy, and consistent.

This week we sit down with Dr. Greenhouse (aka Nadia Sabeh) to discuss:

  • Dry ≠ safe: why extra-dry rooms can actually spread powdery mildew
  • Measure where it matters: a simple toolkit and method at the canopy
  • Design for airflow: room shapes and layouts that keep climate even

Summary

In this episode, Bryan Fields and Kellan Finney welcome Nadia Sabeh, also known as Dr. Greenhouse, to discuss the intricacies of cannabis cultivation, focusing on HVAC systems, climate control, and the importance of data monitoring. Nadia shares her journey into the cannabis space, her expertise in controlled environment agriculture, and the challenges growers face in maintaining optimal conditions for their crops. The conversation delves into root cause analysis, the significance of understanding plant needs, and the necessity of proper data collection to improve cultivation practices. Nadia emphasizes the importance of customizing environments for different strains and the impact of room geometry on airflow dynamics. She also highlights essential tools for growers and offers final takeaways for improving cultivation practices.

David Fettner Most cannabis facilities fail before the first wall goes up.
Most assume it’s because of money — but they’re wrong.
It’s because no one asked the right questions.

The question you need to ask now is:
Where should we be looking to set ourselves up for long-term success?

Asking the right questions is critical — because decisions made for today can become death warrants tomorrow. Knowing where to look (and what to avoid) can be a game-changer.

This week, we sit down with David Fettner, Managing Partner at Grow America Builders, to expose the hidden pitfalls that derail cannabis facility projects before they even begin.

From chaotic planning to compliance nightmares to overinvesting in the wrong upgrades, we break down the most expensive — and avoidable — mistakes in the game.

In this episode, we cover:
• The most common and costly mistakes operators make when building cannabis facilities
• Where smart investments need to be made now — including AI, technology, and automation
• What separates successful projects from the ones that go sideways

Shahar Yamay Every investment is just an ROI calculator.

Automation feels risky—until you run the numbers.

It doesn’t kill craftsmanship—it scales it.

Growing your pre-roll category usually means balancing sales growth with hand-filling teams to maintain quality.

But what if you could do both?

What if you could leverage best-in-class automation to hit your numbers faster, cleaner, cheaper—without sacrificing quality?

The truth?

You don’t need 30 people rolling joints when 3 people and a machine can do it better.

This week, we sit down with Shahar Yamay, CEO of Hefestus Technologies, to break it down.

  • The ROI of Automation—and how to know if it actually makes sense
  • Balancing scale, quality, and consistency in cannabis manufacturing
  • Why automation doesn’t replace jobs—it removes bottlenecks

 

Summary

In this episode, Bryan Fields and Kellan Finney welcome Shahar Yamay, CEO of Festus Technologies, to discuss the evolution of automation in the cannabis industry. Shahar shares insights on the iterative design process, the importance of customer feedback, and the challenges faced in R&D. The conversation also covers the current state of automation, ROI considerations, and the integration of AI for quality control. Shahar emphasizes the need for open-mindedness in engineering and the importance of being a trusted partner in the industry. The episode concludes with a look at future innovations and how listeners can connect with Festus Technologies.

]]> The ROI of Pre-Roll Automation: Scaling Quality, Reducing Labor, and Hitting 20K+ a Day ft. Shahar Yamay Shamar Yamay, Bryan Fields, Kellan Finney 00:39:00 Every investment is just an ROI calculator. Automation feels risky—until you run the numbers. It doesn’t kill craftsmanship—it scales it. Growing your pre-roll category usually means balancing sales growth with hand-filling teams to maintain quality. But what if you could do both? What if you could leverage best-in-class automation to hit your numbers faster, cleaner, cheaper—without sacrificing quality? The truth? You don’t need 30 people rolling joints when 3 people and a machine can do it better. This week, we sit down with Shahar Yamay, CEO of Hefestus Technologies, to break it down. The ROI of Automation—and how to know if it actually makes sense Balancing scale, quality, and consistency in cannabis manufacturing Why automation doesn’t replace jobs—it removes bottlenecks Summary In this episode, Bryan Fields and Kellan Finney welcome Shahar Yamay, CEO of Festus Technologies, to discuss the evolution of automation in the cannabis industry. Shahar shares insights on the iterative design process, the importance of customer feedback, and the challenges faced in R&D. The conversation also covers the current state of automation, ROI considerations, and the integration of AI for quality control. Shahar emphasizes the need for open-mindedness in engineering and the importance of being a trusted partner in the industry. The episode concludes with a look at future innovations and how listeners can connect with Festus Technologies.

Hirsh Jain What’s the real goal of a legal cannabis market?
If it’s to replace the illicit market, create safe access, and drive tax revenue—then why is California, the world’s 4th largest economy, failing while Michigan is thriving?

Despite California’s size and cultural dominance, cannabis sales are shrinking, cities are refusing to opt in, and the illicit market is flourishing.
Meanwhile, Michigan is seeing record growth, robust retail access, and real tax benefits flowing back to local communities.

So—who’s to blame?
Is it the regulators? The lawmakers? The businesses?
Or is the system itself fundamentally broken?

This week, we bring back Hirsh Jain to break down:

  • Why California’s cannabis model is failing
  • How Michigan’s success exposes the flaws of others
  • Why Ohio is the political key to national cannabis reform
  • The rise of the global cannabis supply chain—and what it means for the U.S.

]]> Organigram’s Competitive Edge: Paolo De Luca on BAT, M&A Strategy, and the Cannabis Long Game Paolo De Luca, Bryan Fields, Kellan Finney 00:54:43 Built to last.That’s not just a slogan — it’s a strategy. In an industry driven by short-term survival, the cannabis space often feels like a rollercoaster.

It’s a deliberate, disciplined approach designed to capitalize on where the industry is going, not just where it is today.

This week, we sit down with Jim Higdon to discuss:

  • What signals to watch for from Trump
  • What a “one-plant” solution could look like

The recent SB3 vote signaled the start of something much bigger.

While hemp and cannabis operate in very different styles, both are ultimately pushing toward the same goal: a sensible framework for a one-plant solution.

The how? I’ll leave that to people way smarter than me.
But the genie is NOT going back in the bottle — and while speed and clarity aren’t often associated with Congress, we might see that sentence written sooner than expected.

This week, we sit down with Jim Higdon to discuss:

  • The massive implications of Texas’ SB3 vote
  • What signals to watch for from Trump
  • What a “one-plant” solution could look like

It’s already here.
Operators are bleeding, investors are disappearing, and the old playbook is falling apart. After Benzinga, one thing’s clear: the winners will be the ones who specialize, control every cost, and have visibility into every part of their business in real time.

What happens when you pull back the curtain on the cannabis industry’s most influential event of the year?

In this episode, we go back to our roots—just the two of us—breaking down what we saw, heard, and felt at the Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference. From weekly leadership strategy gaps to operational blind spots, this is our unfiltered take on where the industry stands and where it’s headed.

We cover:
• Why vertical integration is breaking operators—and what model might replace it
• How real-time data and automation are becoming non-negotiable for extraction
• Why the Texas vote was bigger than it looks—and what it signals for national momentum
• What teams should be doing right now to protect margins and prep for the next cycle

Compliance gets all the attention, while real operational signals—like handling variability and shifting process conditions—lead to execution gaps and reactive decision-making.

Extraction process optimization is tricky, but when the actual root cause is identified and solved, the returns can be astronomical—and compounding.

The challenge? Aligning teams around meaningful data, not just required data.

The unlock? It’s not about overhauling everything—it’s about starting small, watching closely, and making the process stronger one step at a time.

This week we sit down with Murphy Murri to discuss:

  • What most teams miss when they “optimize”
  • Why compliant data ≠ operational clarity
  • Immediate ways to improve cannabis manufacturing

Everyone’s chasing growth, market share, and the next hot product — but few are asking the deeper question:

What will the cannabis industry actually become?

While cannabis is certainly disruptive, its future likely follows a few predictable paths — built on established infrastructure where companies must choose: go big, go niche, or get squeezed out.

This week we sit down with Brett Puffenbarger, founder of Good Highdeas, for an unfiltered look into where cannabis is heading — and why most operators aren’t ready for what’s coming.

  • Why small brands need to niche down fast
  • The “hourglass” market effect no one is talking about
  • What the "milk aisle model" means for the future of weed

Visibility, Inventory & Profitable Growth with Tyler Nielsen "Cash strapped" might be the most heard phrase in the cannabis industry right now.
So… where’s the cash?

Without disciplined forecasting and visibility into true costs, growth is meaningless. Most companies aren’t failing from bad ideas — they’re failing in execution. That’s where cash leaks into missed forecasts, bloated inventory, and lost opportunity.

Cash flow isn’t a quarterly metric — it has to be a daily focus.

The ones with visibility are growing profitably and setting themselves up to survive now and thrive later.

This week we sit down with Tyler Nielsen to discuss:

• Closing the Execution Gap and unlocking hidden cash
• How to identify leaks and improve visibility across the business
• Connecting the front of the house to the back for real-time decision making

They’re sitting on cash, looking for growth — and cannabis is the obvious move.

They’re no longer silently watching from the sidelines. They’re investing, expanding — some through public acquisitions, others through quieter plays. But one thing is clear: it’s no secret anymore. Big Tobacco is here, leveraging its resources to capture market share quickly, while cannabis companies continue to struggle.

And on the other side of the coin? The global unlock continues.
With U.S. operators mostly stuck within national borders, Canadian companies are finally getting the green light to activate dormant facilities and feed growing EU demand. Companies like Curaleaf are thriving in the international arena — and it’s just getting started.

This week, we sit down with global cannabis strategist Deepak Anand to break down:

  • Tobacco’s positioning — and what they’re likely eyeing next
  • Which U.S. companies Deepak expects to head overseas
  • Which international markets are heating up next

Micah Anderson Specialization is coming — and surviving will mean doing one thing better than anyone else.

But that’s only the beginning. Getting there takes a relentless growth mindset: an obsession with stacking small operational wins — data, tech, genetics, process — to create massive separation over time.

Extraction isn’t simple. And in a world of margin compression, “this is how we’ve always done it” won’t cut it.

Micah shares how applying best-in-class manufacturing principles has helped LEEF reach elite levels of efficiency — and how just a 1–2% gain in yield can unlock millions in  value. He also shares how they’re continuing to push the envelope to stay ahead.

This week we sit down with Micah Anderson to discuss:

  • What it takes to earn trust from the world’s biggest brands
  • Why world-class manufacturing technologies is massive edge
  • Expansion plans in NY and what’s next for “the farm”

They said they needed terms — “as soon as it sells, we’ll pay.”
But the days kept going by… and nothing came in.

In cannabis, collections are brutally difficult. With limited banking and tight cash flow, cash is king. So how do you know who’s trustworthy? Who’s a repeat offender? And where do you even go to collect?

Sadly, this scenario is far too common — and it’s crushing the industry.

This week we sit down with Brett Gelfand, founder of CannaBIZ Collects and the Cannabis Credit Association, to explore:

  • How to protect your business before extending net terms
  • What to do when customers ghost you on payment
  • How big of an issue is this, really?

AnnaRae Grabstein While it feels like progress isn’t happening — and that may be true at the federal level — inside the industry, it’s a completely different story.
The financial model you built, the regulatory category you operate in, the market dynamics, the consumer behavior — every one of those variables is in motion. Constantly evolving. And new competitors are entering, disrupting your playbook from every angle.

Reality is, the shakeout isn’t ending anytime soon. This industry is not for the faint of heart.

The one thing that doesn’t lie? Data.
Ground yourself in it. Use it to make decisions — the hard decisions. Because if you don’t, eventually the market will make them for you.

Yes, it’s insanely difficult right now.
But that’s par for the course in a billion-dollar startup industry with a constantly shifting foundation.

This week we sit down with Annarae Grabstein to discuss the following:

  • Why most cannabis financial models were doomed from the start
  • The THC beverage boom and what it reveals about consumer demand
  • Go Wide vs. Go Deep: A strategy framework to actually survive this market

Impossible, right?

Think again.

This is just the beginning of unlocking the true potential of plant medicine, and with further research, education, and access, millions more could benefit.

This week, we sit down with Emily Fisher & Dr. June Chin of Leafwell to discuss:

Ron Gershoni Want to know what a company really values? Look at where they spend their money.

In cannabis, where cash is a rare commodity, Jetty Extracts is choosing to invest in:

  • Thousands of dollars each month in additional third-party testing that isn’t required
  • OCal-certified cannabis, the cleanest on the market

Most companies can’t even consider this level of investment. Jetty does it because they’ve spent over a decade building a brand on quality.

As the industry shifts toward clean products, organic certification, and transparency, Jetty is making a conscious choice to lead, not follow.

This isn’t just compliance—it’s a brand separator. And that’s what makes them different.

This week we sit down with Ron Gershoni Co Founder Jetty Extracts to discuss the following

  • Why solventless extraction is the future.
  • Why OCal certification is a game-changer.
  • How Jetty built a brand on quality and consistency

  • The biggest misconceptions about how cannabis laws are actually made
  • Why local governments resist cannabis businesses (and how to change their minds)
  • How lobbying really works—and who actually needs it in cannabis

Dan Shapiro Everyone can agree—cannabis operates in a legal gray area. 

For starters, anyone in the industry is technically breaking federal law, as cannabis remains federally illegal. 

But for an in-house attorney at an MSO, the job isn’t just about navigating federal risk.

 It’s about understanding where gray meets red, balancing state-by-state regulations, and ensuring compliance across an industry with ever-changing rules—especially for a publicly traded company.

This week, we sit down with Dan Shapiro, EVP of Ascend Wellness, to break down:

  • Understanding the legal gray areas in cannabis
  • Shifting regulations, the Farm Bill, and Schedule 3
  • Balancing legal risk and business strategy in a fragmented industry

]]> Navigating the Gray: The Legal Tightrope of Cannabis Risk & Compliance ft. Dan Shapiro Dan Shapiro, Kellan Finney, Bryan Fields 00:46:08 Everyone can agree—cannabis operates in a legal gray area. For starters, anyone in the industry is technically breaking federal law, as cannabis remains federally illegal. But for an in-house attorney at an MSO, the job isn’t just about navigating federal risk. It’s about understanding where gray meets red, balancing state-by-state regulations, and ensuring compliance across an industry with ever-changing rules—especially for a publicly traded company. This week, we sit down with Dan Shapiro, EVP of Ascend Wellness, to break down: Understanding the legal gray areas in cannabis Shifting regulations, the Farm Bill, and Schedule 3 Balancing legal risk and business strategy in a fragmented industry About Ascend Wellness AWH is a vertically integrated multistate cannabis operator with licenses and assets in Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Maryland. AWH owns and operates dispensaries and seven state-of-the-art cultivation facilities, growing award-winning strains and producing a curated selection of products for retail and wholesale customers. AWH produces and distributes its in-house Simply Herb, Ozone, Common Goods, Effin' and Royale branded products. AWH also produces and distributes products on behalf of its brand partners including Miss Grass, Lowell Smokes, Flower by Edie Parker, 1906, and AiroPro.

  • - Developing consistent standard operating procedures (SOPs) across multiple states
  • - Emphasis on employee empowerment and optimal team placement

Ralph Risch F1 hybrid seeds are the cornerstone of modern agriculture, offering the least expensive and most reliable way to grow uniform plants with predictable traits.

In the cannabis industry, however, growing from clones has long been the standard because true F1 hybrid seeds were unavailable—until now.

Today, F1 hybrid seeds have arrived in cannabis cultivation, delivering the same consumer and agronomic traits that make large-scale production in traditional agriculture so successful. 

These seeds are not only transforming the economics of cannabis cultivation but also turning pain points into competitive advantages for forward-thinking growers.

By applying techniques borrowed from big agriculture, the cannabis industry can now achieve massive payoffs through uniform plants with predictable traits, shifting the narrative from inefficiency to profitability.

This week we sit down with Ralph Risch to discuss:

  • Seeds vs. clones: key benefits, costs, and trade-offs.
  • How F1 hybrid seeds are transforming cannabis cultivation.
  • The economic impact of big-ag innovations in cannabis.

 

Key Topics Discussed

  • Ralph's Entrepreneurial Journey (00:01:11)
  • Background in emerging markets
  • Transition into the cannabis industry
  • Scientific Approach to Cannabis Breeding (00:02:37)
  • First company taking a scientific approach to breeding
  • Genomics-driven breeding methodology
  • F1 Hybrid Seeds Explained (00:11:52)
  • Difference between traditional and F1 hybrid seeds
  • Uniformity and predictability in plant genetics
  • Genetic Markers and Breeding Innovations (00:28:44)
  • Currently using 15 genetic markers
  • Potential for expanding to 40 markers in future
  • Rare Cannabinoid Research (00:37:07)
  • Exploring CBG, CBC, and other minor cannabinoids
  • Potential therapeutic applications
  • Future of Personalized Cannabis (00:45:53)
  • Discussion on personalized medicine and cannabis
  • Challenges in creating strain-specific solutions

The line between success and failure is razor-thin, and most companies don’t have the resources to recover from a failed “marriage.”

One of the unique and beautiful challenges of the cannabis industry is the emotional connection founders have with their businesses. Much like a parent’s love for a child, founders tend to see only the good, often downplaying potential downsides.

The ability to stay grounded, ask the hard questions, and—most importantly—be culturally and mentally prepared to discuss a “marriage” with another group is daunting.

When conversations about capital or potential acquisitions arise, it’s easy to overvalue a business internally. Founders know the countless hours and effort that went into building it, which can cloud judgment about its true market value.

This week we sit down with Tony Schor to discuss:

  • Where partnerships fail.
  • Creative ways cannabis companies are securing capital.
  • Where people are investing in the cannabis industry.

Episode Highlights

Cannabis Industry Insights (00:01:25)

  • Discussion of cannabis industry legacy
  • Importance of partnerships in industry growth
  • East Coast vs. West Coast cannabis market dynamics

Mergers & Acquisitions Deep Dive (00:02:53)

  • Challenges of cannabis M&A transactions
  • Importance of cultural fit in partnerships
  • Strategies for finding the right manufacturing and brand partnerships

Capital and Technology in Cannabis (00:37:47)

  • Technology as the hottest investment area in cannabis
  • Challenges of raising capital in the industry
  • Cross-industry interest in cannabis opportunities

Cannabis Hall of Fame (00:47:33)

  • Tony's role as chairman
  • Plans for a 13,000 sq. ft. immersive exhibit at Planet 13 in Las Vegas
  • Goal of destigmatizing cannabis through education and recognition

But the moment there’s a hiccup or delay, it becomes an issue.

Building software that consistently runs seamlessly, while integrating additional features to create an “all-in-one” solution that’s easy to use? That’s nearly impossible.

Kudos to Chris Violas and the Blaze team for achieving just that. Leveraging his AWS background, Chris has created a software environment that boasts an impressive 99.1% customer satisfaction score.

The infrastructure may not be the sexiest part of software, but it’s the foundation everything else is built on. Much like adding a second level to a house, it can either be a smooth process or a massive headache, depending on the strength of the foundation.

This week, we sit down with Chris Violas to discuss:

  • What most people don’t know about software in cannabis.
  • Infrastructure and the connection to customer success.
  • Acquisitions, ecosystems, and the evolution of “all-in-one” solutions.

About Blaze:

A complete cannabis software suite designed to streamline and scale dispensary operations. BLAZE powers every aspect of your retail business with an intuitive point-of-sale, advanced inventory management, built-in loyalty, native e-commerce, and integrated cashless payments. Our goal is to provide a cohesive ecosystem that allows dispensaries to offer an exceptional shopping experience for customers.

when we talk mission critical infrastructure, like our system, like it's not okay just to have a lag. We have someone in front of the point of sale, like literally pushing buttons and wanting to check out. And so there's just no space for issues.

it's nice to have a storefront, but the reality is it is like 80% more efficient on so many levels to fulfill an online order than to have someone walk around with someone in store and hold their hand.

But the moment there’s a hiccup or delay, it becomes an issue.

Building software that consistently runs seamlessly, while integrating additional features to create an “all-in-one” solution that’s easy to use? That’s nearly impossible.

Kudos to Chris Violas and the Blaze team for achieving just that. Leveraging his AWS background, Chris has created a software environment that boasts an impressive 99.1% customer satisfaction score.

The infrastructure may not be the sexiest part of software, but it’s the foundation everything else is built on. Much like adding a second level to a house, it can either be a smooth process or a massive headache, depending on the strength of the foundation.

This week, we sit down with Chris Violas to discuss:

  • What most people don’t know about software in cannabis.
  • Infrastructure and the connection to customer success.
  • Acquisitions, ecosystems, and the evolution of “all-in-one” solutions.

About Blaze:

Think about that for a second.

It’s a testament to how far the cannabis industry has come and the progress being made. 

But, as with anything in the cannabis space, there are complexities, caveats, and unique challenges.

For instance, in some markets, consumers can access products directly through D2C channels or dispensaries. While these channels can complement each other and drive brand loyalty, the rise of D2C may also create tension with retailers, who were once the sole point of purchase.

This week, we sit down with Colin Keeler to break it all down and discuss:

  •  Hemp & Cannabis Strategy 
  • Minor cannabinoids they are testing
  • Innovations & Consumer Preferences

  4. Hemp Market Exploration (00:14:31) - Colin discusses Kiva's entry into the hemp market, explaining their cautious approach and how they're navigating the different regulatory landscapes across states.
  5. Pricing and Distribution Challenges (00:26:46) - The conversation explores the complexities of pricing in cannabis and hemp markets, including the challenges of maintaining consistent pricing across different states.
  6. Innovation and Future Outlook (00:33:09) - Colin talks about Kiva's focus on innovation, particularly around dosage, minor cannabinoids, and creating products that meet consumer wellness needs.

 Sensible regulations should be rooted in logic, not outdated prohibition fears or baseless stigmas.

 If cannabis is legalized, it should be treated like any other industry, not one plagued by fear of being a shadowy boogeyman.

This week, we sit down with Wendy Bronfein to dive into:

  • Key Differences Between Maryland and Missouri’s Cannabis Markets
  • Emerging Marketing Trends and Customer-Focused Strategies
  • Innovative Crohn’s Disease Research and Product Development
  • ...and so much more.

  1. Introduction and Background (00:00:00) - Brian and Kellen introduce their guest Wendy Bronfein, co-founder of Cura Wellness. Wendy shares her background in the television industry and how she transitioned into the cannabis space.
  2. Early Days of Maryland Cannabis (00:01:15) - Wendy discusses how her family became involved in the Maryland medical cannabis market, including their trip to Colorado and the process of applying for a license in 2015.
  3. Launching Curio Wellness (00:02:47) - The company won a license, built their facility, and became operational in 2017, shipping to licensed dispensaries in December of that year.
  4. Transition to Adult Use (00:03:07) - Maryland transitioned from medical to adult-use cannabis in July, with Wendy explaining the regulatory changes and market dynamics.
  5. Product Innovation and Research (00:33:59) - Curio Wellness discusses their approach to product development, including specialized products for sleep, mood, and potential medical treatments like a Crohn's disease tablet.
  6. Marketing Challenges and Regulations (00:25:16) - Wendy explains the marketing restrictions in Maryland compared to Missouri, highlighting the challenges of advertising in the cannabis industry.
  7. Personal Insights and Closing (00:42:33) - The interview concludes with personal questions about Wendy's dream smoking session, her views on branding, and her favorite ice cream.

]]> Inside Curio Wellness with Wendy Bronfein: Maryland vs. Missouri Cannabis Markets and Crohn’s Treatment Bryan Fields, Kellan Finney, Wendy Bronfein 00:44:22 Sometimes, you need to go the extra mile to make a point—like buying every medicine at CVS to show regulators that medicine can, and often does, have flavor. Sensible regulations should be rooted in logic, not outdated prohibition fears or baseless stigmas. If cannabis is legalized, it should be treated like any other industry, not one plagued by fear of being a shadowy boogeyman. This week, we sit down with Wendy Bronfein to dive into: Key Differences Between Maryland and Missouri’s Cannabis Markets Emerging Marketing Trends and Customer-Focused Strategies Innovative Crohn’s Disease Research and Product Development ...and so much more. Chapters: Introduction and Background (00:00:00) - Brian and Kellen introduce their guest Wendy Bronfein, co-founder of Cura Wellness. Wendy shares her background in the television industry and how she transitioned into the cannabis space. Early Days of Maryland Cannabis (00:01:15) - Wendy discusses how her family became involved in the Maryland medical cannabis market, including their trip to Colorado and the process of applying for a license in 2015. Launching Curio Wellness (00:02:47) - The company won a license, built their facility, and became operational in 2017, shipping to licensed dispensaries in December of that year. Transition to Adult Use (00:03:07) - Maryland transitioned from medical to adult-use cannabis in July, with Wendy explaining the regulatory changes and market dynamics. Product Innovation and Research (00:33:59) - Curio Wellness discusses their approach to product development, including specialized products for sleep, mood, and potential medical treatments like a Crohn's disease tablet. Marketing Challenges and Regulations (00:25:16) - Wendy explains the marketing restrictions in Maryland compared to Missouri, highlighting the challenges of advertising in the cannabis industry. Personal Insights and Closing (00:42:33) - The interview concludes with personal questions about Wendy's dream smoking session, her views on branding, and her favorite ice cream.

Key Topics Discussed

  • Jack's background and entry into the cannabis industry (00:00:11 - 00:01:37)

Hirsh Jain "Diplomacy is the art of letting someone else have your way." — Daniele Vare

Are we underestimating the role cannabis could play in shaping global influence? 

U.S. brands have historically had global appeal, but could cannabis open the door to new trade opportunities and strategic value on an international scale? 

Who will lead these global negotiations when the U.S. is still struggling with a state-by-state approach?

Can state-level influence accelerate global change, and what would the timeline for such a shift look like?

This week, we sit down with Hirsh Jain to explore these critical questions and more.

  • Cannabis Shifting Global Policies
  • Key Red States to Watch 
  • The Role of Soft Power in Shaping International Cannabis Policy

The United States' potential to influence global cannabis policy and legalization (00:06:41 - 00:14:32)

The importance of state-level legalization progress in the U.S. and its impact on federal action (00:14:44 - 00:18:28)

Predictions on key states to watch for future legalization efforts (00:18:29 - 00:20:01)

The role of hemp products and their impact on the cannabis industry (00:38:22 - 00:45:04)

Are we underestimating the role cannabis could play in shaping global influence?

Who will lead these global negotiations when the U.S. is still struggling with a state-by-state approach?

This week, we sit down with Hirsh Jain to explore these critical questions and more.

Jesse Redmond Humbling… How many times have we thought catalysts were on the way, only to find out at the last minute it was just a pawn or a negotiation tactic?

The question remains for optimists like myself: Is the thesis still intact? Yes, but the timing was off. A hard lesson learned—never count on DC for simple, sound decisions on a reasonable timeline.

Let’s revisit the thesis.

Gone are the days of unicorns, but we’re now in a phase where challenges persist, and change could come quickly. Optimist Bryan is still holding on.

How do you balance emotional attachment with a clear perspective on the investment thesis, recognizing these businesses are moving in the right direction and poised to explode?

This week, we sat down with Jesse Redmond to revisit this thesis and explore exactly that.

  • Cannabis Investing: A Generational Opportunity?
  • Pick & Shovel Strategies vs. MSOs in Cannabis
  • Balancing Political Catalysts and Investment Approach

Topics Discussed:

Jesse's background and path into the cannabis industry (00:02:05)

The current state of the cannabis investment thesis and opportunities ahead (00:06:18)

The potential impact of catalysts like Florida going adult-use and Schedule 3 rescheduling (00:09:37)

The relationship and dynamics between the cannabis and hemp industries (00:18:57)

Strategies for investing in the cannabis space, including ETFs and specialized companies (00:22:03)

The importance of understanding the "why" behind being involved in the cannabis industry (00:59:55)

Jesse's predictions for the next 12 months in the cannabis market (01:04:14)

About Jesse Redmond is the Managing Director at Water Tower Research where I cover cannabis and natural products. Before this, I founded two hedge funds and a leading California cannabis collective. I began my career at Franklin Templeton, was an early employee of Fisher Investments, and spent a decade co-managing multiple hedge funds. In this role, I allocated more than $1 billion to hedge fund strategies and conducted more than 1,000 due diligence visits around the world.

In 2016, I founded a dispensary outside of Santa Barbara, California, that became number one in its region. In 2020, I founded Higher Calling Consulting, where he helped investors find the best cannabis investments. Through these experiences, I bring a unique perspective to the sectors I cover.

In addition to publishing written research, I'm the co-host of The Water Tower Hour and Higher Exchanges podcasts.

The KANHA Story

Our founders embarked on a journey to seek greater balance in their lives that took them from the Amazon rainforest, to the jungles of West Africa, to the ancient cultures of Asia, including transformational lessons from a respected spiritual guide in India. 

This spiritual journey profoundly impacted them and taught them how people from different cultures have learned to live in harmony with the world and how plant based medicine like cannabis can lead to a life of optimal wellness. 

KANHA reflects the way we see cannabis and its role in connecting the world around us, serving as a metaphor that expresses how cannabis offers a better life and a stronger community through your own personal journey to happiness. KANHA strives to lead you on a joyful journey with delicious, reliable edibles. As a leading edible brand in the nation, KANHA delivers delectable gummies in an incredible variety of dosages, effects and flavors — so that consumers can taste the bliss at every step of their journey. 

We’re dedicated to carefully crafting our wide range of products using only all-natural ingredients and premium cannabis oil extracted from pesticide-free flower, resulting in a perfectly consistent, accurate and delicious dose every time.

Erik Knutson Hemp beverages have exploded over the last 24 months, and they are likely the tip of the spear for broader cannabis reform, helping to normalize cannabis through a familiar form factor.

The opportunity to produce hemp-based products in a single facility and distribute them across state lines offers benefits throughout the supply chain, providing consumers with more cost-effective products—much like how global giants like Coca-Cola operate. However, the rules governing this are still very grey.

In contrast, regulated markets require brands like Keef to establish individual operations in each state, leading to massive capital expenditures and challenging returns, especially when confined to a single state's population. Now, Keef sometimes finds itself competing with others—or even itself—as those who can distribute more broadly enjoy better unit economics without the burden of regulatory headaches and infrastructure costs.

Balancing these two models—considering the investments, the state of the market, and the opportunities at hand—is far from simple. Especially when you consider that Keef has been pioneering cannabis beverages for the past 14 years.

This week, we sit down with Erik Knutson to discuss:

  • Building a beverage brand in 2010
  • The differences between the regulated cannabis market and the hemp-derived market
  • Key manufacturing and strategy decisions
  • And much more

Chapters:

  1. Introduction and Background (00:00:00) - The hosts introduce their guest, Eric Knutson, co-founder of Keef Brands, and discuss his early introduction to the cannabis industry in Colorado.
  2. Keef Brands Origin Story (00:01:28) - Eric shares the story of how Keef Brands was founded, starting with their initial focus on cannabis-infused beverages and the challenges they faced in developing the manufacturing process.
  3. Navigating Expansion and Licensing (00:07:46) - Eric discusses Keef Brands' expansion efforts, the challenges of licensing their brand in different states, and the importance of vetting partnerships.
  4. Regulated vs. Hemp-Derived Markets (00:27:26) - Eric explains the differences between the regulated cannabis market and the hemp-derived market, including the regulatory landscape, supply chain considerations, and Keef Brands' approach to each.
  5. Planning and Forecasting in a Rapidly Changing Industry (00:42:32) - Eric shares insights on the challenges of planning and forecasting in the cannabis industry, emphasizing the need for flexibility and caution when it comes to investments and production.
  6. Advice and Closing (00:46:01) - Eric provides advice for first-time cannabis beverage consumers and shares where listeners can find more information about Keef Brands.

About Sundie Seefried:

Safe Harbor Financial is the brainchild of Sundie Seefried. A 35-year veteran of the credit union industry, in 2014, she saw that CRBs needed financial services and that Colorado communities would be safer if the new industry had access to banking solutions.

A 39-year credit union industry veteran, Seefried was the former CEO of Partner Colorado Credit Union (PCCU). Established in 2015 by PCCU, Safe Harbor was formed to provide an unmet need – compliant banking and financial services to the rapidly growing U.S. cannabis industry. Seefried designed a full scope Cannabis Banking Program for PCCU known as the Safe Harbor program, which has withstood the scrutiny of 16 federal and state exams to date. Now in its 8th year, Safe Harbor has grown to nearly 600 accounts spanning 20 states, and processed over $12 billion in cannabis-related transactions.

Seefried regularly provides cannabis banking education and expertise to legislators, regulators, attorneys generals, state officials, and financial institutions. She is on a mission to normalize banking for the cannabis industry, while assisting law enforcement and federal agencies to be more effective at combating illicit activities and protecting the financial system.

To share her knowledge, Seefried authored the book ‘Navigating Safe Harbor – Cannabis Banking in Uncertain Times’ in 2016, as well as contributed a chapter on cannabis banking in the university textbook ‘The Politics of Marijuana: A New Paradigm’ by Timothy McGettigan.

Are you cultivating for smokable flowers or extract?

How do you take a skill once passed down from person to person and translate that into high-end cultivation practices that can be standardized across employees or even scaled across companies?

These skills demand a unique blend of rigorous science and an intuitive "feel" that's hard to quantify.

This Week We Sit Down with Travis Higginbotham to Discuss the Following:

  • Maximizing Yield Through Light Accumulation
  • Why Harvest Timing Matters for Extracts vs. Flower
  • Defining Quality in Cannabis Cultivation
  • Challenges in Cannabis Cultivation

About Travis Higginbotham

DDH collaborates with debt lenders, court receivers, family offices, and other capital groups to turn businesses around, prevent bankruptcy, and support new startups with a solid horticultural foundation.

Travis holds a B.S. in Horticulture from Clemson University and an M.S. in Horticulture from Virginia Tech. His leadership at California's Statehouse Holdings from 2021 to 2024 resulted in a 65% increase in annual flower production YOY on average and a 33% cost reduction, earning nine awards during this time for flower quality.

Brandon Bobart Successful marketing requires a blend of specialized expertise and a broad understanding of strategic frameworks. However, too often, marketing gets pigeonholed into a single person's role, expecting them to handle everything from strategy to execution.

In fast-paced, scaling startups, this is precisely where fractional marketers can make a critical difference. Leveraging a team of skilled, experienced individuals to handle various marketing roles can support your marketing team more effectively, saving time and costs.

This week, we sit down with Brandon Bobart to discuss the following:

  • How does a Fractional Marketer work?
  • Benefits & Drawbacks
  • Best Tactics for Cannabis Brands

Using pricing as a tool to drive sales can have unintended consequences. 

For example, if a customer typically purchases one product every 30 days but buys two products when offered at a lower price, they might not return for 60 days.

 Did leveraging the price as a tool for additional sales work as intended?

This week, we dive into the intricacies of cannabis retail, exploring all components of the system to understand what is needed to achieve profitability.

Join us as Krista Raymer discusses how to put the pieces of the puzzle together for a successful retail strategy, covering topics such as:

  • The difference between pricing and promotion
  • Internal alignment on promotional strategies
  • The potential pitfalls of using price to drive sales
  • Strategy for long-term profitability in cannabis retail

Using pricing as a tool to drive sales can have unintended consequences. 

For example, if a customer typically purchases one product every 30 days but buys two products when offered at a lower price, they might not return for 60 days.

 Did leveraging the price as a tool for additional sales work as intended?

This week, we dive into the intricacies of cannabis retail, exploring all components of the system to understand what is needed to achieve profitability.

Join us as Krista Raymer discusses how to put the pieces of the puzzle together for a successful retail strategy, covering topics such as:

  • The difference between pricing and promotion
  • Internal alignment on promotional strategies
  • The potential pitfalls of using price to drive sales
  • Strategy for long-term profitability in cannabis retail

Shane Johnson Synthesis, a process that may sound complex, is actually quite common in our daily lives. From the production of everyday items like Advil, organic milk, citric acid, to the creation of vitamins A and D, and multivitamins, synthesis is a key player.

Why does this realization often provoke a negative reaction? 

Perhaps it's because there's a desire for clean, safe, and consistent natural products, especially when they originate from plants.

Surprisingly, synthesis enhances our ability to deliver such products.

This week, we're joined by Shane Johnson to delve into the following topics: 

  • How minors are manufactured, synthetic vs. biosynthetic 
  •  Upcoming Minors to keep an eye on 
  •  Novel APIs & Analogs

A little over a year since its inception, BRĒZ hockey stick trajectory is undeniable and worthy of emulation.

When executed perfectly, marketing becomes more than just a line item on a P&L; it becomes a tool with unlimited potential. BRĒZ ability to connect with consumers on a personal level and address all hidden potential questions and concerns reflects textbook marketing prowess that would earn the approval of industry legends like Gary Albert or David Ogilvy.

The storytelling marketing strategy isn't an Ad but a friendly, informative guide. Educating consumers about an alternative to alcohol minimizes the intimidation factor and highlights the product's benefits, such as its quick onset and ability to eliminate brain fog. 

The true beauty of Bez's marketing lies in its authentic storytelling, a quality that is easy to identify yet extremely difficult to replicate.

This week, we sit down with founder Aaron Nosbisch to uncover the following:

  • Marketing Principles used
  • Hitting Milestone of a Million a Month
  • Conversation with the FDA
  • and so much more

Great companies were built by risk-takers."

Deeply ingrained in Curaleaf's DNA is the ability to navigate the unknown ahead of opportunities.

Timing these events is nearly impossible, but having the foresight and strategic resources in place when the opportunity strikes can change the game.

For visionaries like Boris Jordan, being early in markets like Germany can be challenging for everyone to see until recent developments materialize.

The US and European cannabis markets operate very differently, and Curaleaf is in a prime position to secure an untapped market share twice the size of the US.

This week, we sit down with Boris Jordan to discuss the following:

  • Unique Market Differences: Europe vs US
  • Educating Institutional Investors: What does that conversation look like inside the room?
  • Breakdown of the German Market, Hint toward Asia
  • And so much more

The cannabis industry, with its unique challenges, demands tailor-made software solutions.

Software that guides critical decisions forms the company's foundational backbone.

 An unwavering dedication to profoundly understanding customer challenges and the agility to create nimble, value-focused software solutions is indispensable and poised to disrupt any incumbent.

This week, we sit down with Rick Bashkoff to discuss:

  • Lit Alerts, CannaVersions & the Origin from Pain to Solution
  • The Critical Role of Accurate Data for Success
  • Building Software Solutions for the Cannabis Sector
  • The Readiness of the Cannabis Industry for AI

Our superpower is our ability to remain lean and focused on our customer without the distractions most software companies incur. We're buiulding a software company in a new age of automation, In our observation, many cannabis operators are not (yet) self service software candidates. They need tools that are plug and play and require very little setup and maintenance (if any).

Cannabis consumption is growing, and Alcohol is shrinking. 

"We believe that over the next 5 years, the cannabis category will add 18 million past-month consumers, while alcohol will lose 2 million past-month consumers, as consumers increasingly embrace cannabis and temper their alcohol consumption" – TD Cowen.

About Boston Beer Company

We are The Boston Beer Company and together we are heavy. From the very beginning, Jim Koch wanted to create a company that he would want to work for, creating a culture that celebrated beer with a passion and depth of knowledge that can’t help but be contagious to others. Nearly 40 years of brewing beer and cultivating talent later, we continue to be a passionate group of individuals who focus on raising the bar in everything that we do. We are always looking for hardworking, motivated and competitive people who strive to push the boundaries and never settle. Not to be lost in the shuffle is the ability to have fun – after all, we are a beer company, and if you can’t have fun in this business, there’s something wrong! Boston Beer is the maker of Samuel Adams, Dogfish Head, Truly, Twisted Tea, Angry Orchard.

These tools aren't new; they are mainstays in industries like agriculture and oil and gas, now applied directly to cultivation and extraction.

These technologies have been game-changers for the early adopters – playing a crucial role in boosting production and maintaining quality. Imagine having the power to prevent entire crops from failing or ensuring complete cannabinoid extraction, all thanks to sensor technology.

The benefits are substantial for businesses that are quick to adopt these changes. By adopting techniques from other industries, cannabis operators are now embracing best-in-class global practices.

Dr. Matthew Moore As rumors of rescheduling grow more prominent, concerns about big pharma's potential control over the industry are escalating. We invited Dr. Matt Moore back for a third time to shed light on the challenges and opportunities in the development and research of cannabinoid and psychedelic drugs.

 For those unfamiliar with Dr. Moore, he is an accomplished scientist with extensive experience in the pharmaceutical, cannabis, and psychedelic industries, adept at managing projects from pre-clinical stages to post-approval."

This week, we sit down with Dr. Matthew Moore to discuss.

  • Does Big Pharma benefit from a rescheduling of Cannabis?
  • Cannabinoid Clinical Trials, challenges, and opportunities 
  • Brian Johnson and Medicine 3.0

Can I make terpenes water soluble?

Can I turn terpenes into powder?

Even more impressive? All this for content centered around the often suppressed topic of cannabis.

This is the profound impact of storytelling.

Earning the trust of industry giants like Jungle Boys, Berner, and Backpack Boyz to narrate the saga of their brand-building journey is no small feat.

Join us as we engage with Luc, from LMC, to explore:

  • The art of storytelling and how brands can harness its potential.
  • Insights gleaned from an up-close look at the journeys of cannabis pioneers.
  • The strategy behind amassing millions of view

Jon Levine "'No taxation without representation down with 280E" might well have been the catalyst prompting lawmakers to consider rescheduling cannabis to Schedule 3, potentially eliminating the controversial tax code.

Join us as we dive deep with Jon Levine, discussing:

  • MariMed's unwavering commitment to brand consistency, regardless of state boundaries.
  • The symbolism and impact of their Boston Tea Party-Style protest against the Federal Tax Code 280E.

Brands ignite ethos. But how? Why do we gravitate towards certain names, bypassing others? It's that gut tug.

 That undeniable pull that captures your gaze when a product on a teeming shelf beckons you, compelling you to reach out. 

It's a visceral connection.

Join us this week as Oliver Higgins delves into the following:

• Lady Gaga, Harry Styles, and how he attracted them. 

• Cannabis Block parties, i.e., Buds on Rose. 

• Product Portfolio and staying true to his customer.

The challenge between the two groups usually circles the same issue...... money.

Without a clear insight into how & why cultivation yields occur, this unknown can be a major sticking point between parties.

Data can alleviate this challenge and connect & benefit both parties.

Whether you're a CFO or a master grower, this conversation has valuable tidbits.

  • How Sensors benefits small companies quicker than bigger
  • Improving yield

Bob Hoban The Farm Bill in 2014 was the most sweeping reform in U.S. Cannabis history, and the langued that was renewed in 2018 is set to be renewed again this year. Are any changes on the horizon to be aware of?

As international markets continue to open, are these opportunities for expansion for U.S. operators, or will international operators be collecting the remnants of the U.S. cannabis operators?

This week we sit down with Global cannabis policy expert Bob Hoban to discuss the following:

  • Farm bill updates and how to prepare
  • International Updates with a focus on Germany
  • Merging of hemp and cannabis sectors
  • THC %
  • And so much more

About Bob Hoban:

Robert Hoban is a corporate and M&A attorney who sits at the center of the world’s largest commercial cannabis industry network. He is a leader of Clark Hill’s AmLaw-leading Cannabis Industry Group. As the cannabis industry commercialized, Bob has been widely credited for creating the class of lawyers now known as “cannabis attorneys.”

They didn’t realize it at the time, but they weren’t just creating a premium edible product, they were setting the gold standard for the entire legal cannabis industry.

David Goubert Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) is a commonly used term in the cannabis industry, encompassing brands and dispensaries. When it comes to luxury purchases, the entire experience and the emotions it evokes play a crucial role in evaluating customer satisfaction. Luxury brands can command premium prices due to their positioning and the inherent value associated with their products. While the cannabis industry is gradually moving towards establishing such premium price points, it requires a deep understanding of exceeding expectations at every customer touch point.

Implementing and refining these strategic principles is a valuable endeavor. However, it presents significant challenges, including current marketing restrictions, limited capital resources, and the complex nature of establishing a consistent national brand identity in a market that operates on a localized basis.

Applying and developing these strategic principles is a valuable undertaking but comes as a steep uphill challenge.

This week we sit down with David Goubert, CEO of Ayr Wellness, to discuss the following:

  • How AYR  is applying  luxury retail principles
  • Implementing realignment strategy and why certain assets didn’t fit
  • Key touchpoints in the customer journey
  • Where Opportunities are in cannabis via marketing

The recent “definitive victory” by AVD was a critical win for the cannabis industry.

A monopoly would have jeopardized the entire category and potentially put a stranglehold on crucial hardware. This ruling ensures that competition continues and allows brands and consumers to not suffer at what could have been.

The bigger question remains, is this IP battle the first of many?

We sat down with Alex Kwon, Founder and CEO of AVD, to discuss the following:

  • USITC cannabis vaping dispute
  • Wartime CEO strategies
  • Building a Diversified Supply Chain
  • Forward-thinking disruption tactics

About AVD:

In our former lives, we were extractors and processors. And, probably like you, we were looking for vape hardware equal to our oils. Except we couldn’t find consistently reliable cartridges. That were correctly designed. Didn’t burn our oil. And were priced for the market.So we said to ourselves, 

“We know exactly how the perfect cartridge should perform. After all, we’ve been in the industry for 20-plus years. From cultivation to managing licensed extraction labs to processing and formulation.  We’re perfectly positioned to engineer and manufacture our own hardware.”

]]> The Strategic Mindset of AVD's IP Triumph Battle & How an Innovative Manufacturing Powerhouse stays 3 Steps Ahead ft Alex Kwon Bryan Fields, Kellan Finney, Alex Kwon 01:04:10 An enormous victory for the US Cannabis Vaping sector happened, and most completely missed it. The recent “definitive victory” by AVD was a critical win for the cannabis industry. A monopoly would have jeopardized the entire category and potentially put a stranglehold on crucial hardware. This ruling ensures that competition continues and allows brands and consumers to not suffer at what could have been. The bigger question remains, is this IP battle the first of many? We sat down with Alex Kwon, Founder and CEO of AVD, to discuss the following: USITC cannabis vaping dispute Wartime CEO strategies Building a Diversified supply chain Forward-thinking disruption tactics About AVD: In our former lives, we were extractors and processors. And, probably like you, we were looking for vape hardware equal to our oils. Except we couldn’t find consistently reliable cartridges. That were correctly designed. Didn’t burn our oil. And were priced for the market.So we said to ourselves, “We know exactly how the perfect cartridge should perform. After all, we’ve been in the industry for 20-plus years. From cultivation to managing licensed extraction labs to processing and formulation.  We’re perfectly positioned to engineer and manufacture our own hardware.” Guest Links: https://avd710.com/ https://www.instagram.com/avd710/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/avd710/ Follow us: Our Links.

You operate a state-licensed business. You pay your taxes and follow ALL the rules and regulations as defined.

You hear a knock at your home door on your daughter's birthday. U.S. federal Agents are there to charge you with the Kingpin Statute or the same law designed to target El Chapo and other cartel leaders.

Not only have you never been convicted of a crime, but you have also followed all the rules California enacted when they passed the Compassionate Use Act in 1996 

Certainly, a jury of your peers who voted for this law almost a decade earlier would be an arbitrator of truth and fair would recognize you’re not a drug kingpin, let alone a criminal. This is the United States of America. 

This week we sit down with Luke Scarmazzo, One of the first licensed medical dispensaries in the United States, who shares his compelling story.

We discuss: 

  • 2004 California Cannabis Industry
  • Scarmazzo vs. United States of America
  • Emotional rollercoaster
  • His mission now and how others can help
  • And so much more

 

 

About Luke Scarmazzo

In 2006, Luke Scarmazzo was running a state-legal medical cannabis dispensary in Modesto, California, when he was arrested by U.S. federal agents following a DEA raid of the business. Scarmazzo was prosecuted in federal court and received a 22-year jail sentence. He and his family have turned to The Weldon Project for support.

Though Scarmazzo’s dispensary was legal through California’s Proposition 215 – which legalized medical cultivation, sales, and consumption in the state – he and his business partner were charged under the Continuing Criminal Enterprise Statute. The CCE Statute, also known as the Kingpin Statute, is a federal law designed to target large-scale drug traffickers and cartels who are responsible for long-term and elaborate drug conspiracies. It carries a mandatory minimum jail sentence of 20 years.

In 2017, after serving nearly a decade in jail, Scarmazzo petitioned the Obama administration for commutation. His business partner, Ricardo Montes, received clemency, but Luke’s request was denied. In 2020, advocates with the nonprofit The Weldon Project included Luke's name on a list of 25 marijuana offenders sent to the Trump White House as part of a clemency campaign supported by Republicans, Democrats, law enforcement and various celebrities. Although President Trump granted nine of the requested pardons, Luke’s request was not granted.

Brandon Barksdale  

Nestled in the Mid-Atlantic and surrounded by states that have legalized cannabis, Maryland's burgeoning cannabis market has a strategic location that is poised for explosive growth. With the country's highest concentration of government employees, its potential federal impact on the industry is not to be overlooked.

Remedy is a key player in the limited licenses market. This week we sit down with Brandon Barksdale Co CEO of Remedy Maryland to discuss the following:  

  • The future of the Maryland market and its potential growth due to its location and consumer demand
  • The potential influence of the tri-state area on banking reform and full-blown legalization and the government's role in driving change in the industry.
  • Unique partnerships with big cannabis brands like Cookies and Holistic in creating the "store within a store" feel in dispensaries.
  • Adhering to quality standards during the transition from medical to recreational cannabis

About the Cannabis Marketing Association

Cannabis Marketing Association was founded in 2016 by cannabis marketing executive Lisa Buffo in response to the unprecedented challenges cannabis communications professionals were experiencing. Industry marketers were unable to use traditional marketing tactics and technology such as paid advertising, social media, or digital outlets. This reality, coupled with unclear regulations across fragmented markets and a pervasive perception problem, left cannabis marketers with the task of rebranding cannabis as the then-nascent industry was rapidly growing.Cannabis Marketing Association was established to bring the cannabis marketing community together so that best practices could be shared through our collective knowledge.

About High Tide:

Founded in 2009, High Tide Inc. has become the largest revenue-generating cannabis company in Canada¹ with over 400 million dollars in annual revenue run rate. High Tide’s subsidiary, Canna Cabana, is the largest non-franchised cannabis retail chain with over 150 retail locations operating across Canada, including the largest bricks-and-mortar loyalty plan in the country with nearly 1 million Cabana Club members. Our company’s portfolio is also comprised of global e-commerce assets, including the two most popular consumption accessory e-commerce platforms in the world², as well as three of the top international CBD brands serving  the U.S and the U.K. Combined, our online platforms saw over 155 million page views throughout 2022³.

About: RAJ GROVER

Since starting his first company at the age of 22, Raj has established himself as one of Canada’s foremost business strategists and deal-makers. He is the founder of High Tide and its subsidiary companies Valiant Distribution and Canna Cabana and is the co-founder of High Tide’s subsidiary, Famous Brandz.

Through organic growth and strategic acquisitions, Raj has grown High Tide from one small shop of 2 employees in 2009 into Canada’s largest non-franchised cannabis retailer with over 1,450 amazing team members and business interests spanning North America and Europe.

While committed to building a strong, profitable, and sustainable business, Raj also believes passionately that those who enjoy success hold a particular responsibility to give back. That is why he has spearheaded High Tide’s support of World Vision, which has seen the company sponsor a growing number of children from developing countries. This support has grown substantially since its inception, from the initial sponsorships of 3 children in 2006 to over 300 sponsorships in 2022. Under Raj’s leadership, this number will continue to grow.

On a personal level, Raj has also been a long-time supporter of Operation Smile, an organization that works to deliver free, safe cleft surgery to children in need saving them from a lifetime of pain and isolation.

]]> Raj Grover: The Visionary Behind the Costco of Cannabis and Its Thriving Ecosystem Bryan Fields, Kellan Finney, Raj Grover 00:48:49 The Costco of Cannabis, what does that mean, and how does the ecosystem feed opportunities during the most challenging time? This week on The Dime, we host Raj Grover, CEO at High Tide, to discuss the following: How does the ecosystem business model work Exclusive Paid Membership "Cabana Elite" Diversified Revenue Streams And so much more About High Tide: Founded in 2009, High Tide Inc. has become the largest revenue-generating cannabis company in Canada¹ with over 400 million dollars in annual revenue run rate. High Tide’s subsidiary, Canna Cabana, is the largest non-franchised cannabis retail chain with over 150 retail locations operating across Canada, including the largest bricks-and-mortar loyalty plan in the country with nearly 1 million Cabana Club members. Our company’s portfolio is also comprised of global e-commerce assets, including the two most popular consumption accessory e-commerce platforms in the world², as well as three of the top international CBD brands serving  the U.S and the U.K. Combined, our online platforms saw over 155 million page views throughout 2022³. About: RAJ GROVER Since starting his first company at the age of 22, Raj has established himself as one of Canada’s foremost business strategists and deal-makers. He is the founder of High Tide and its subsidiary companies Valiant Distribution and Canna Cabana and is the co-founder of High Tide’s subsidiary, Famous Brandz. Through organic growth and strategic acquisitions, Raj has grown High Tide from one small shop of 2 employees in 2009 into Canada’s largest non-franchised cannabis retailer with over 1,450 amazing team members and business interests spanning North America and Europe. While committed to building a strong, profitable, and sustainable business, Raj also believes passionately that those who enjoy success hold a particular responsibility to give back. That is why he has spearheaded High Tide’s support of World Vision, which has seen the company sponsor a growing number of children from developing countries. This support has grown substantially since its inception, from the initial sponsorships of 3 children in 2006 to over 300 sponsorships in 2022. Under Raj’s leadership, this number will continue to grow. On a personal level, Raj has also been a long-time supporter of Operation Smile, an organization that works to deliver free, safe cleft surgery to children in need saving them from a lifetime of pain and isolation.

If only a substitute social tonic could provide that happy feeling without the hangovers.

This week on The Dime, we host Luke Anderson, Co-Founder at Cann, to discuss:  

  • Crossfading: Mixing of Alcohol & Cannabis.
  • Why Altering Framework Unlocks Beverage Category
  • Misconceptions on Beverage Market Size

About Cann:

Cann is a sessionable drink, meaning you can control and build your buzz because it's microdosed with just the right amount of THC. With a typical onset of just 10-15 minutes, start with one and go from there. For those new(ish) to cannabis, we typically recommended 1-2 Canns.

About Luke Anderson:

Luke Anderson is the co-founder of Cann, the world's first micro-dose THC beverage. With his colleague Jake Bullock, Anderson launched Cann in 2019, disrupting the industry with a sessionable cannabis-infused beverage line.

  • The Integration of the largest M&A in Cannabis
  • Florida Adult Use, Social Equity, and Home grow update.

Chris Chiari This week we are joined by Chris Chiari, Co-Founder of 420 Hotels to discuss

  • Cannabis Consumption Hotel
  • Alcohol vs Cannabis Regulations
  • Public Enemy #1
  • Haunted Experience & Cannabis hospitality

The 420 Hotels will be amongst the nation’s first hotel chains where guests will be able to consume cannabis onsite in legally licensed lounges. The idea is to convert intimate boutique hotels into high-end, members-only cannabis consumption clubs merged with luxury overnight accommodations.  Chris Chiari is a driven entrepreneur and award-winning film producer with a wealth of experience in corporate strategy and regional politics. Skilled in marketing and messaging, he has engaged exclusively with the cannabis industry since 2011 and is a tireless advocate for cannabis policy reform and fostering industry growth. 

Chris owns and operates Denver’s historic Patterson Inn, the keystone of The 420 Hotels portfolio. As CEO, he uses his expertise in hospitality, operations and community outreach to address the stigmas and ignorance that still exist around cannabis use while creating a unique and upscale environment for cannabis consumption. 

With a deep appreciation for the power of collaboration, Chris has built a wide-ranging network throughout his career spanning corporate boardrooms and the entertainment industry. Public Enemy Number One, a film by Chris Chiari, is a feature documentary about the War on Drugs, and counts entertainer Ice-T as one of its executive producers. The film won awards for Best Producer and Best Storyteller at its world premiere at DOC LA 2019 and Best Documentary at the 2020 Seattle Film Festival. It is currently available for rent on Amazon Prime and streaming on Pluto TV and Tubi. Chris is a former Deputy Director of Colorado NORML, serving for over eight years.. When not working on The 420 Hotels portfolio, Chris likes to stay involved with grassroots advocacy and advancing social reform; he was one of the five members of the petitioners committee of Denver’s successful 2019 psilocybin ballot initiative. In his free time Chris can be found on the rail at a Twiddle show.

Leslie Bocskor This week we are joined by Leslie Bocskor   to discuss : 

  • Paper, Plastic & Fiber will be disrupted
  • Making sense of Cannabis policy
  • Why the Cannabis industry has not self-regulated

About Leslie Bocskor

Bocskor’s insights, expertise, and global stature make him the man who policy makers, investors, and entrepreneurs seek out for future planning and immediate fixing. He is the undisputed choice as the voice on cannabis issues and business, from state-of-the-art technology and best practices to policy, industry financing and expansion. Committed to a culture of compassion at Electrum Partners and throughout the industry, he takes pride in ushering in changes that rewrite history, whether it’s the empathic opening of patient access, or the invention of a national innovation funding reset button.

His far-reaching banking and entrepreneurial experience and inimitable style are bolstered with his knowledge of any cannabis vertical — from domestic and international policy to finding your niche investing opportunity, from supercritical extraction to ERP solutions, from seed-to-sale to the entourage effect of strategic business integration. Bocskor has become one of the most influential people in the cannabis space, guiding policy and reform.

Levia uses a proprietary technology which provides for rapid onset of the effects of THC, typically 15-20 minutes with lasting effects up to 3 hours, allowing for a more consistent consumption experience compared to many edible products.

Ayr Wellness Inc. (CSE: AYR.A, OTCQX: AYRWF) (“Ayr” or the “Company”), a leading vertically integrated U.S. multi-state cannabis operator (“MSO”), today announced that it has closed the acquisition of Cultivauna, LLC, the owner of Levia branded cannabis infused seltzers and water-soluble tinctures.

“Bringing Levia into the Ayr family represents a key addition to our portfolio of high-quality, branded offerings,” said Jonathan Sandelman, Founder, Chairman and CEO of Ayr. “We look forward to expanding the presence of Levia’s seltzers and water-soluble tinctures across our multi-state footprint, while bringing new, innovative form factors to life, like beverage enhancers. With a fast-acting formula and great taste, we believe Levia will be a crucial component in expanding our reach to new and existing consumers who seek a predictable and familiar cannabis experience.”

Eric Levittis the  Founder of Pure+Wisdom Foods.The reason I started this company was to create everyday health and wellness supplements that you could actually feel and quickly knew were making a positive difference in your daily routine.  (And also to provide an alternative remedy to some of the harmful opioids and drugs on the market today.)

Creating a functionally different product starts with combining hemp-derived cannabinoids and adaptogen mushrooms.  The next key ingredient comes in the form of technology, specifically applying Time Release capabilities to the CBD.  The reason we do this is because CBD has a unusually short half-life in the body; from the time you take traditional CBD in the form of tinctures or soft gels, it’s typically reached it complete absorption in the blood plasma within 75 minutes and it’s done.  Using time-release technology, we’re able to increase the amount of time you’re still absorbing the CBD for up to six hours.

Bruce Eckfeldt host of the Thinking Outside the Bud podcast Bryan and Kellan sit down with Bruce Eckfeldt, Strategic Business Coach and Host of "Thinking Outside the Bud" podcast, to give some insights into what it's actually like running a business in the cannabis industry. The three talk about:

  • What are the issues that the cannabis industries are facing that are typically overlooked in other industries?
  • Is there a lot of money in the cannabis industry?
  • What aspects of "normal business practices" do non-cannabis companies take for granted? 
  • What is the "state line" issue?
  • How do cannabis companies protect intellectual property?
  • How will cannabis companies adjust when federal regulations change?
  • How will the cannabis market shift as legalization attracts "bigger fish?" 
  • How will the cannabis industry break down (or segment) after legalization?
  • How will interstate commerce be regulated after legalization, and how can that potentially impact the industry?
  • What's the biggest lesson you have learned from operating in the cannabis space?
