Welcome to cannabis school. I'm your host Jessie Angeles and I'm Brandon Elder and we're here to talk to you about everything pertaining to cannabis from bait, flower Edibles, strains and everything in between. We sent out a request to get some funny stories from the audience because we thought it would be a little bit entertaining to do the funny High stories or the first time I got high edible stories. Yeah, anything that was is going to be able to just go.
Okay, look it's not always going to be fun times and to start it out I'm going to share one from mine way. Back in the day, I would say this is Over 20 years ago, it's been a hot minute. Yeah, it's been a bit and I had a friend. She said, hey, you want to hang out tonight and possibly get high and I'm like, yeah, sure she goes, I just got some weed and I'm like, oh cool. Now, I had smoked weed. Maybe a couple of times at this time. This is what I called it.
We so really just a few. Yeah, just a few handful of times. Well yeah, about a handful of times, even my time in the Navy, when I was getting out I smoked a blunt here, they're smoked a joint with a friend here and there, but nothing like consistent. Like, hey, I have I have plenty of cannabis stored in a closet
or in my drawer, right? Nothing like that was just, it was always at this time, it was either you were growing it and you knew somebody so you have plenty of it or it was like a random occurrence or are sporadic thing of like, hey, someone's got a joint because it was still super hush-hush. I mean, jail time for it? Oh yeah. And so anyways this person she gives me call.
We I go to hang out with her now I am very green on cannabis and she loads up a whole bowl and we go back and forth to this pipe, smoking it in her apartment. And I'm feeling very high at this moment. I'm my whoa and I'm cracking jokes. I'm having a good time then. She pulls, she empties out the bowl in this little pipe starts filling it back up. And I'm like, yeah. Round 2, we and she goes. Do you want to smoke another
bowl of me? And I said, yeah, of course, but then I go to my mind and I'm like, dude don't do that. You already are way too high and I'm starting to get a little bit of the spins and I said, you know, I mean my mind I'm like don't don't you dare and then my body and my mouth is like why do I look like a pussy? So yeah load it up. Yeah start smoking that Start smoking that, and it quickly goes from laughter to, to straight-faced to don't move.
And I'm just like a statue, and she pushes me and says, what's wrong? And I get up. And I start running towards her bathroom. I am nauseous as all hell, and I'm running and my hands over my mouth like this. And I start throwing up like I'm overwhelmed and I Start throwing up, and it starts praying through my fingers onto the wall in her bathroom and I get to the toilet and I'm yakking, I don't remember anything after yakking. I remember that the floor was cold and I stayed there next
morning. She kicked me awake. She's like, hey, I need to use the bathroom. I'm like, what happened? Like, I don't know. You ran throwing up all over the hallway, got it, all over my walls, and then you just passed out on the floor. Or you didn't say anything. You just went to sleep. Now, I'm like, I'm so sorry from that day until you had introduced me back into it. I couldn't even smell it. I would get nauseous. Whoa, who's bad? That's wild, but it was and there's a condition.
We should look that up. But there's a condition that actually talks about. That, that can be induced from Cannabis. There's a really easy way to combat that. So again, right, we've always talked about that, lemon juice peppercorn CBD. You can use any one of those and it's going to be able to help you out but yeah, using that high. Yeah. But if I would have thought about it back then if we would have had that information back then How many how many? How many joints could have been
rolled? How many bowls could have been filled? Seriously, I was neglected. Yeah, right just proper education, it will because before that well even after that I smoked no, I I smoked a couple of different times. Like I took a hit from a really shitty gravity bong bathtub with a milk carton that would hurt. It was like, just barely this much cut off the bottom of the milk carton than his bowl. Yeah, putting to the side and then just Just send those are always the harshest hit her like
really nice, smooth head. Well, you don't feel good after either. You're not, you're not necessarily in this Dimension, but you're not in the next one, you're in the middle, you're in purgatory. You're just like, you know, I hadn't hadn't really had any of that from it, but I definitely it. I get the worst coughs from gravity bong head. They always wreck me and I feel like it tastes Nowhere near as good is even normal bomb. No, it's the same as doing like
a beer bong. Like when you do a beer bong it's have you ever done that before now. So what you do is we when I was in the Navy, small story than will definitely hit our stories here. But in the Navy, we built this gravity bong from Home Depot. We got this giant funnel. And then we got this tubing about this thick and we mouth is supposed to fit around. Oh no. It just it goes down. It's like about I would say 15 16 inches of this pipe.
It's pretty thick and then it goes down to a ball valve and you could turn it here and then we had made a smaller. We brought a got a smaller one there, so then you would load up this whole thing and you could probably fit in there about, I don't know, not it was longer than that. It was I would say about two and a half feet. That's quite a bit bigger than what I was just describing because I started It about it because we called it burnt.
And it was, yeah, it was pretty long and you could load in there. Probably about anywhere. From is like eight to ten beers all at once. Wow. And when you would hit that it just I'll just go straight in there. That's a lot of beer. And so we would always put in there about five to six beers, but when we would do every once in a while we do, there's a way you can do deck. Dr. Pepper shots are heard dr. Pepper shots. So you get a Shot glass of what is it?
It's wild turkey. Okay, 11010, right. So you get that, you get in a shot glass, then you pour Amaretto into a beer mug and then you pour beer in on top of the Amaretto. So the the beer sitting right on top of it and then like this shot on fire and then you drop it in the mug and it just Foams up. So then you quickly drink it, there's no alcohol smell. No alcohol taste. It tastes like a dr. Pepper that's crazy. And you go drink, another one of
those delicious. And as soon as you down that second one, you're like cuz you've got on the first time. Dude, you got so much liquor in you and your life so that honestly was like the first time, that's what it felt like. Because I remember I've been sick on alcohol many a times. Yeah, but that one was pretty intense. The spins were so hardcore. So that's another one of those young ones like, hey, Young Buck.
If a if a lovely young lady would like to smoke some flour with you and then possibly sheet like to do other extracurricular activities with you. Go. Low and slow my friend. Take your time. Yeah. Oh go too fast, man. I mean, that made me think of my very first time. I'm with cannabis and I puked, but it was because I had never smoked anything ever drank anything. I'd not really had anything in my life. That was anything remotely similar to that.
Yeah. And so after smoking, I threw up a little bit because it made me cough and gag and I have a really like gag reflex. I'm so I throw a portable dark. Yeah and then just the worst date and it's just Jesus Christ. So basically I'm puke and then I'm sitting there with all my buddies and I shall like a hundred pennies in my mouth and I'm right? Yeah you're being weird and now I look back and like I would never do that.
And they never have sense. I don't well understanding the very the very sheltered Force for sheltered life that your parents put on you growing up. I could only imagine because that's its there's no expectancy like for me all I knew from growing up. As I had friends parents that would either smoke cigarettes and drink alcohol, and when they get a little sloppy that was just how they were. I didn't really think about that. At first, cannabis saw that at all, and there's there's a
cannabis edeka to that. The totally needs to be brought up, especially within these stories. You're going to hear about. Because a lot of times it's you need somebody there that you can trust on going. Hey, is this a good idea for me? You really should be open to that. Yeah, 100%. And I feel like I know too many people who pushed you to smoke more like, hey, I'm you came over and my buddy Chad was like, oh smoke, this smoke, this smoke, this and he has actually
perpetuated. The worst cannabis stories out of all my friends from the experiences they've had. Yeah. Like the brownie one. Yeah, we're her my buddy passed out in the street and the snow was a high for. Like 36 hours straight around his family at Christmas fucking horrible, and he already has social anxiety. And doesn't like being around large groups of people so then he's also really high in that.
Yeah, it was great for him. So we're going to share some other stories of You guys at home? Yeah, we've been able to compile bunch of different stories. We pick the best ones that we thought would be awesome to be able to share Brandon's, going to start us out. What's the worst one? We're going to talk about. So we're going to check out a story from Brian.
First time edible says, Hey guys my first time consuming cannabis was with a 10 milligram edible, I got the gummy from a close family member who suggested that. I give it a try for Stress and Anxiety. So when I got home, I took the whole thing. Keep in mind it was my first time using cannabis that's not a very low and slow ten milligrams per hour first time. Doses, Hudson says pretty high. Yeah so after about half an hour I thought this isn't doing anything then I started to feel
good. Then really good then oh man. What's going on? I got antsy sweaty heart racing and then started Pace a bit after a while. I started to feel better and hungry. I then had the best night of sleep, that night. The next day, my family member asked, how did you like it? I then explained what happened? And it was then it was then recommended to go low and slow now that I've got her better feel for Edibles and how they work.
It's my primary way of consuming I'm getting more informed about cannabis through self educating and listened to your podcast. It's super helpful and informative. Keep it up. So it's a lot. Yeah as a first-time dose like ten milligrams is pretty decent. I can imagine that was quite the right one.
That's the thing to a lot of a lot of people are more apprehensive about trying cannabis because they're like, well, I don't want the smoke and I don't want to vape because there's a negative connotation to both of them which totally understandable, totally true to its not everyone's cup of tea. Absolutely not. But the thing to also keep in mind is that by going the route of the edible, it is four times.
Bigger than if you smoked it. Yeah, it and you can't digest as 11 hydroxy THC and that I said four times stronger than regular THC. Well in also know what exactly like for the, the biggest horror stories are I don't feel shit after an hour and they eat another one, another 5 to 10 G edible you're like No And and then all of a sudden three four hours later it kicks in there like and it lasted forever, if it takes longer to kick. In. Think about it, plan about your day.
If you're about to get off work and you want to be plenty elevated, by the time you get home, eat an edible. If you have the understanding, you need to know your endocannabinoid system. And that's what these M edible too, because Hodel is if it got apples might faster, some might take longer, right? And like own an OD anodized a th see that kicks in within 15 minutes. Yeah, like the quick drops, three to five minutes, it's kicking in full kick in, it's like 35 minutes and you're like,
you're on that ride. Just feels pretty good. So yeah, I know. Go, low and slow. This one's another one. This is kind of funny and if I offend somebody get over it because you know, whatever this is written to us from Jose Jose, Jesus goody-goody eras row. So let me tell you about a time. I got crossfaded. So it was in a small County of Mark Martin Marin County to Cal in California and it was a city called Saint Ali small.
And we were Going to Jack In The Box and me and another cousin was drunk and high at the same time. So when we get to Jack In The Box and I guess I was acting some type of way, and I get knocked out by one of my cousins, and one of my cousin's comes out of the Jack in the Box is like, what the fuck happened? Then everything got settled out, Jack-in-the-Box, figured out of the way.
You couldn't Sucker Punch me. And then, I don't know what the part of the high and I started screaming down the street that the immigration was coming. Immigration is coming. So like you would say La Migra La Migra right, sir like immigration, my dad jokes around about that. He's like just going to any Ross on a Sunday with a bunch of Latinos and just let me grab, let me grab you just seem running for the doors. That leads to say, my dad's dad's a first generation immigrant from Mexico.
And yeah, he's allowed to say that I guess, but screamed out, the immigration is coming. Help me and therefore, I remember my cousin screaming at, My other cousin to go, get them because it's going to get somebody a house. And then suddenly, I remember I was knocking on people's doors, like one in the morning screaming, the open the door, immigration is coming and for some and my cousin I heard in the background yet again, everything was Pitch Black.
The basically runs off and he was saying immigration. I mean this is why you don't cross faith, that sounds like a crazy story well and let's let's kind of go into that one. Crossfaded means it's when you mix alcohol and cannabis and what happens when that happens. So it takes it accelerates both effects. Yeah. At the same time and it like multiplies them, so the feeling of drunkness can be crazy over-the-top.
With the feeling of being high. Like it can be a really gross horrible combination when you do that. And it's recommended because I mean the alcohol in your system is going to stay there for a while. And so is the Cannabis cannabis is going to be fleeting more and that one but I can only imagine with the alcohol molecules and inside your bloodstream plus with th see that has a long
shelf life. That's like drinking edible gum e-juice pretty much and you're going to get super, super messed up and quite often that's when we talk about people throwing up a lot. Yep. Or doing outlandish things. I mean, we just got done talking
to a guy at a head shop. It's saying he had a quit using cannabis and he used to do like you know six grams of dabbed day and all sorts of stuff and then he just started triggering and one of the things you Heard about was that, you know, if you got a history of schizophrenia and your family might want to take it easy on that. Yeah he said he would run up, he'd get high, go run up in the mountains, become sober, and go. What the hell am I doing up here?
And head home? Just sounds in crazy. Interesting. But yeah, not recommended drinking with cannabis. I'd avoid it. Yeah, I have another good one here. Cool comes from Chris. And it says, hey, I'm Chris my first time. Smoking my older brother talked me into it because of my back and medical conditions.
I was so paranoid, we had to go hide in the closet so we didn't stink my house up. I had just moved into it after graduating, by the end of the night, we were chilling in the front room, smoking the bong and I was in my underwear making Hamburger Helper laugh my ass off, thank you for reading my story and thanks cannabis for helping with my up lip epilepsy and severe scoliosis wouldn't trade it for Anything that's awesome to hear. It is awesome.
I mean, it's, it's that fear that stigma, right around the beginning, like when people start using, they feel like you're doing something wrong. Are they get anxious like? Oh, I don't want to get caught or busted or my partner doesn't know my parents don't know. My family doesn't know whatever it is that some of us are just we have that anxiety around it so it's cool. He came out of the closet and smoked in the front room. I've done seriously funny. I mean, it came out of the cloud.
We, you know, honestly when she Being able to consume it and you know, you're using it for a certain purpose. You have intent going in with it.
You can talk openly with people. Even if they seem like, they'll be more apprehensive, like I told you within within my faith, I'll talk to people who are around my age or older and they're really open to it. But really funny somebody in, in my, in my congregation and come by the house to pick up their kid, playing with my daughter and while they were there, There he was saying like he's like oh so what do you do?
You're like you know like a business consultant, I said, well, kind of and I said, but I also I'm a podcaster. I do have a podcast about cannabis and he's like, oh and I'm like, you might know it as marijuana and he's like, oh I'm like yeah we educate people and the medicinal uses of it and you know how they can use it for recreational being responsible adult and having a good time and he said he's like oh that's that's really good. He just sits there.
Like, you know, I did that because, you know, once you realize the property is in the power of this, this cannabis plant. Why wouldn't you tell everybody about it? I know. Well, that's what I realize is. It's just opening those conversations because there is so much fear and stigma, but it's because people are so afraid to have the conversations that. But when you open it and start having them, people just find that it's more acceptable and they're just more open to having them.
And so, So, just opening that door now. I mean, I treated really common. My kids know that it's in the house. I don't allow my kids to use it. Yeah. I'm not a hypocrite on that side. I realized the medicinal properties, but I also realized that they don't have the mental capacity to be able to know how to be able to do this themselves. And they go from zero to stupid and like, however, long it takes for them to cough out the rest
of that smoke. And, you know, there's a lot of people that say I've been smoking since I was 12, I mean smoke. Since I was 15 and that's great. But the Cannabis Den is not the Cannabis now know, and at the same time I still I'm the same way. I would love to see more research information provided because kids is a taboo subject and so there's compiled data from a lot of different things that are not an actual research saying, hey, it's harmful for children.
There's not any real research studies compiled around children in developing going Hey, it's beneficial in DHC. And this way unless they have like epileptic seizures cancer, like some of these other things that it's like, right? Yeah, that hundred percent outweighs the child dying, right? Like, but it's everyone's got that balance and that decision of hey, is this the best fit for me for my family for whoever never? I mean my kid. No.
I mean I smoke my pain around them, you know, they know if I'm mixing a drink with drops from Quick drops. They know what I'm doing. Oh yeah, they've asked me there go. Hey, you know, can I see it and like Asher? And I tell them about it, and why it smells that way? And see these little dot. These white, it looks like a spider web on it and I said that that's trichomes. I'm like, I explained it to
them. Oh yeah, and they go, well, you know, can I have some like, no. And I explained it to me why it's really easy. But that is long, as I mean, it's the same way like, you know, I'm a nice guy. Yeah, and I've got knives all the time. I got so many different types of knives. Herbs that I carry with me every day. But I'll take my knife out and just put it on the table and leave it there and people go, why do you leave in the now?
Well, my kids know that's a common thing and they do not to touch it unless they've been told at the camp kitchen knives at their house. Yeah I mean it's the same thing. It's in a drawer you don't go pulling it out and go doing stuff. It's it's a tool to teach their kids. These are dangerous, they're sharp, you don't play with him. Yeah, I mean it's like this blade that I've got here. Like that was a daddy. That's a gift from my daughter. And it's a, it's a crkt knife
but it's just a utility knife. I can leave that out anywhere. And even if it was open dude, even my seven-year-old son. Would see it? And close it for me. Oh, this needs to be closed so it's the same way when you're when you're treating anything from tools to Medicine I try to look at it in this way where if you're, if you have medications in House, do you want to hide them from your kids? Or do you want to teach them about it?
And make sure they understand it and that's how we treat cannabis is that this is medicine and this is also used to be able to help with multiple different ailments from head to body. So here's this what it is fear, having them fear, it educate them on it. Yeah, I mean if they smell it there like oh what is that? Like dad's just having some of his medicine, you know, a lot of people around there, even kids in the high school. My kid goes in my oldest.
You know they're like oh yeah you got these stupid Stoners and over here like yeah they are dumb Stoners because they don't know how to use that plan to help them like you. It will enhance. You literally had to have that conversation with my son saying only reason why I can't smoke it now is because you have no drive. You have no discipline, I've tried everything with you. You're your own person. I can't force you.
Yeah. Why would I give you something that's going to enhance what you are? Now, you're going to be lazy as Li xia Bing. It's just going to perpetuate that. Exactly, you're not going to be able to use that but Ways. I digress. Let's go into another one. This is from Ali. What's up guys? My name is Ali and I'm not a big fan and I'm not a big fan of the podcast. I thought I almost read that. It's okay. Ali, we love you, too. And that was the end of that review to do.
I read that wrong. Okay, what's up guys? My name is Ali and I'm a big fan of the podcast. Here's my funny story, after getting too high, my friend and I were on a walk in the woods and ice and smoke some bud. I got pretty baked and we came back to her dad's car to warm up because it was cold out. When I sat down, I felt this soft squishy thing underneath my butt. While he was a while, he was telling me all the cool features
of his dad's car. I was getting more and more paranoid that somehow it crapped my pants without noticing. Holy shit, a lie. He didn't mention how the car got a seat warmers and I asked if asked, if I wanted to try, I begged him not to turn it on. I was terrified that he would smell the shit if I started cooking with the seat warmers on geez. Let's simmer. He thought it was he thought it was weird but Shrugged it off. Lady got out of the car to take a piss and I had time to inspect
the damage. I was surprised to find out that I didn't shit myself but instead was sitting on my ball. Oh sitting on my ballsack. Oh my gosh, it's not a lie. It's a lie. I don't know. It's a li that's a lie. I don't know, I don't know. Well I was sick, Jesus either way. Holy Shit, that's a fucking funny story.
I got repeat that last night. I was surprised to find out that I didn't shit myself, but instead I was sitting on my ballsack, I told him all this when we got back and we laughed about it, moral of the story, we'd paranoia can play some jokes on you. He sat on his balls at that sounds painful but it sounds horrible. Oh my God. That is a funny story. Did you shit yourself and then Then ha man. Nuts, literally nuts. So I'm going to share a joke with you guys. Oh my God, I love this joke.
Hear about that guy, dipped his balls and glitter. No, pretty nuts. As a dad joke, I should have my dad joke shirt on for that. Yeah. No those. So those are just some of the few stories. We were sure. Do you have another one? Yeah, they sent one email but it was too long. Oh cool. All right, so this one sent in by Jesse on this, Jesse, another one. So it says this is the first time you story. I smoked some cannabis when I was in high school but it had no effect on me.
Since I was the only sober person in the group, I took care of the others. I eventually stop consuming and just acted as the dedicated. Caretaker hanging out with extremely high teenagers, while being sober, gave me a bad opinion of cannabis so I didn't touch it again till about my mid-twenties. I traveled quite a bit in the summer of twenty twenty two along the way, I noticed, plenty of cannabis dispensaries, I'm Canadian and I judge me to try
it again. Once I was back home, maybe it will work this time in late August. I purchased some pre-roll cantaloupe his joints at 23%, hoping it would be potent enough was because I was used to Tobacco. I let a half gram joint and smoke through it in 10 minutes beside at my desk to write about the experience. I started I guess. I feel something pleasant, but I'm a bit disappointed. I started listening to 10,000 Days by Tool and lay on my bed. Mmm. Then I felt liftoff.
Could Jam half an hour, had passed. I looked at my phone and realized it had only been five minutes. Oh, shit. Been there. And there, I stood up and return to my desk and proceeded to write longer uneven sense of time, feeling of unreality losing train. And I just gazed into the void. Forgetting what I was about to write, then I continued with some experiments along the way, losing train of thought. Sense of taste isn't named
coffee, tastes great music. Modulates feeling of heat on my body, whatever that means the colors were brighter plants and cloth or more detailed. When I walked. I saw it four frames per second. The effects were growing stronger. So I return to my bed, I close my eyes and was greeted by an amazing light show. The next hour was among the most enjoyable of my life. Hmm, each following Saturday, I would smoke again, tell much
less in journal for an hour. And then sober me, would review what I wrote the next day, cannabis taught me to be more tactful when I speak to be a better listener to see things from other people's perspectives. Try and be more open to ideas. It's been a boon to my career and relationships in September. I started reading extensively about cannabis tried lots of strains and devoured. A few podcasts including cannabis School twice.
Well thank them, that's crazy. I am now on a four time per week smoker, I mostly use ultra sour to get stuff done on weekday evenings and blue dream to relax on Fridays. Hmm, overall cannabis is Happier healthier and more productive, more sociable, that's a good, that's a great finish. That is that's that's something that we all want to achieve making.
