Welcome to Cannabis School. I'm your host, Jesse Angeles. And I'm Brandon Elder. And we're here to talk to you about everything pertaining to cannabis, from vape, flower, edibles, strains and everything in between. Hey, welcome back. It's another Tuesday, another strain review and today we I have a great strain provided from our friends at Fade Co with Story out in Arizona. Yeah, Story cannabis is found around the country, but it is the ones we got it from. Is story down in Arizona?
Yeah, they have. Had some crazy things. Now I will say there are a few things that I'm very frustrated with. I don't know what type of strain it is. Now that's the time, right? Most of the time, or there's no information about it whatsoever. Even on their site, yeah, like it's incredibly small. So the only detailed breakdown that you can really find is the small amount of information that they provide on the packaging. Yeah, and the strain today is Chemical romance.
This is a sativa dominant hybrid. Like creme brulee and Love potion #9, yeah. It's fantastic. You know what? I I I love the smell. I'm really excited. This is the first time that I've been able to experience Brandon. First time for you? I was saying, yeah, I've never tried Chemical Romance train before. That's fantastic. I I have been thinking about like what really defines A sativa and we've been really
diving deeper. I I swear it's almost every week we dive deeper and deeper into the terpenes, which actually causes that the effect that we want. Yeah, well and the effects of like the sativa based ones, you're more focused, you're energized, you're, you know,
hopefully creative. Yeah. And it's and also looking at Sativa strains that have certain amounts of lemonade or linole will actually start to tell you if you're gonna have a racing heart and that's, you know, like alpha pinene, beta carophiline, a lot of those ones will will kind of raise your heart rate, at least they do for me and I've
been more more focused on that. So with today's strain, I'm really curious on how this is going to affect because the terpene profile is lemonade, beta carophiline and beta mirosine. Yeah, that's the interesting thing is you don't see beta mirosine often. You see a lot of like beta carpaline or like beta pinene even or alpha pinene, but the beta mirosene is one I don't see very often. And you know quite a bit about terpenes on on the beta Mirosene or Mirosene as as a general like
what is that to? That's just typically associated with an indica, isn't it? Yeah, usually it's in like indica dominant strains, you'll see that being one of the more predominant terpenes, so, but the beta mirosene is really interesting, so. Yeah, and we're going to be using vaporizers today. I'm using my Crafty Plus by Storz and Bickel. I'm using the Mighty Plus by stores in Beckel. It is my favorite. Obviously, stores in Beckel are our favorite vaporizer brand.
It is pricey, but it's well worth it. It is so worth it. I tried this with my wife last night and she doesn't like a lot of vaporizers. Sometimes too strong, not enough. But this one is great Battery life. Not super awesome on this one, but that is if you're smoking a lot. If you tend to use more than three, maybe even four times a day, I would recommend. Plus even this one like I can use it and kill it in a day. Yeah. If I'm using it as my only thing
I'm doing. I if I'm using costume, so I recently got over an weird viral infection, but the only thing that kept me from losing my shit was smoking every day. And I was smoking a indica leaning dominant hybrid and it really helped out with this ear pain that I was having. It was like a drummer in my ear, yeah, but I found that using this, during that time, I had to charge halfway through the day because you can adjust it. Things I love about yours.
I mean it is pricier, but I can adjust the temperature and the time range. I love the portability of yours, like, I love how small it is. This isn't one I carry in my pocket, it's a beast. But I do like. There's pros and cons to both, you know. But the the stores in Bickel have been fantastic with that. I love like the feel of it. When it first showed up, it was kind of like, oh man this this is massive.
But the more that we've used it, the more I've grown to really love how easy it is to clean, how like clean it is. I feel like this is the lowest temperature of as far as like harshness on my throat. For a vaporizer, at least for a portable one, so. What are you rocking at I Rock at 360? 365 OK is where I'm at. It's it's pretty much the standard range that it comes pre programmed too because it's one of the best. I think mine was 356 is what it came at.
Yeah, but I found that I liked it more at 365 than I have at 3:56. But I want to try this and have this kick in a little bit before I eat this, like 50 milligram cycling frog brownie bite. You know, cycling frog has been super awesome. We'll we'll get more into that. I kind of want to go into right now what I'm tasting.
So that's one of the reasons why we really like the the stores in Bickel because the flavor profile this is the only vaporizers that is medically approved as far as what we know in the literature we've been able to find. But right now, just going through it, you really get those. It's a very soft notes, it's not overly powerful, no cough, and some of these strains you'll get a lot of cough, especially when it's really high in beta. Carefully. Well, it's known flavors are
just like hops and pine. I'm not getting Piney flavors, really. No, it's got the higher on the lemonade. It's the highest. I'm not getting any citrus notes. No hoppy flavors, is what it's saying. Like beer hops. But I don't. I don't taste hoppy flavors either. I don't. Get that at all. Like it's a very mild. It's almost a piss strain. I feel like piss has more gassy tones though, or ammonia like it's. More ammonia. I I get very mild ammonia in this.
One thing to keep in mind too when you're using a vaporizer is that you don't want to try and use this like a McDonald's milkshake like you're not trying to. Suck it down super hard. Yeah, because you will get, especially within this one, you will get particulates in your mouth, like you'll get pieces of bud in your mouth. Yeah, because it depending on the grinder that you use, the grinder that I'm using the OR knock or I forgot the name, it's. Oh, the guy said.
So someone actually went online and or we thought it was like on a rock. There's AG in there. So it's. Own rock or something like on their side. It's an actual G, yeah. Their branding is fucked, then, because it's. So hard to read it. Yeah, I couldn't read it very well. But the device, the piece itself is fantastic. It's the one that had that like WAVY pack, almost like a shell or something in it.
The really cool thing about it is when you grind it, the stems, if there's stems in there, it separates it and it's just up at the. Top Same with this, I feel like the stems are always left at the top just cause of how it separates it, and like, oh it's nice 'cause I just pick out the stems. That's the stash, right? Yeah, the stash is. Same, very similar. I gifted mine to a family member. That's. So kind of you. I know, but it's. I love the other one.
I got a really great one, but I just want to give proper love to Stash and what is it? Oh, I can't even pronounce it. It's like ONGR, OK, I think yeah, yeah 'cause we thought it was on a rock. Canadian brand. GR OK, I think so. Look down in the show notes. We'll have a a link over there, but. Yeah, that one's Jesse's favorite. The stash is my go to. Yeah, it's super nice.
Love the product. I've been really into flour more flour lately and reasons why is you and and a lot of a lot of our audience will actually they know this. If you use distillates too much you start feeling like kind of like if you drink rock stars every day at least a minimum of three a day. Like if you're drinking that much of it and then you get sick and then you come back and you try to do the same thing you get sick as shit.
Yeah. Yeah that's exactly I so I'm I'm, you know you need a break from that and that's why we really it encouraged you to have a very broad and very open relationship with cannabis products. I was very adverse to waxes or dabs or whatever you call it, right from shatter. It's all, yeah, all these. Concentrates and different forms they're in. It's just different forms and different potencies, but I is by far like one of my favorite Go TOS.
When I have it, I really enjoy it because it is a different experience on cannabis than anything else. So let's talk about that real quick. When you're when you're using like a concentrate versus like a distillate, you go to the distillates, you're looking at the percentage of like 70 on the low end, usually up into the 90s, mid, high, 90% THC in some of these distillates.
But when you get a concentrate like in a bucket that you're putting in like a dab rig or an E rig, you're usually like 65 to 85%. You're not usually as high of a percentage of THC. Often I'm finding that I'm in like 60s or 70% in those ranges. The experience is better, the flavour's better. It's not a distilled product. So it's. And you can tell what the terpenes though, because the terpene profiles are, are significantly different where you get a lot of these
distillates. Now, I'm not shitting on distillates. Distillates have their place. They're great. It, you know, it's fast food. We've talked about it many times. Distillates are like fast food, greasy fast food. We've got this burrito chain in Utah called Beto's. I don't know if it's anywhere else. I love Beto. 'S or me ranch ritos, I think, depending on who owns it. Yeah, they've got like this, their prices have gone up, which thinking about the sizes. Though their burritos are massive.
Yeah, their burritos are massive. But anyways, like you know, you it's a kind of that it's not great for you. You know there's going to be a lot of processed shit in it, there's going to be artificial flavors and that's exactly what they add in this.
It's a lot of artificial shit. So it's it's being able to look at it going OK, well what's going to be the best and you start stair stepping it up. Now the problem is, is that when you start stepping it up, you actually start increasing the price and that's where it gets tricky. From dispos to even your plug. You know, you may get concentrates really cheap. In Utah it's $70.00 a gram and that's the cheap end. At the pharmacies, Yeah, Yeah, at the. Pharmacies and it's like.
Fuck yeah, that's so expensive. So expensive. For one gram of concentrate, so like, oh shoot. And so you look at that and then you look at flour. Flour is significantly cheaper and you get more of the cannabinoids and that's why using vaporizers. Using really good vaporizers like this one and it's worthwhile for you to invest into it, but it's no hate on the more inexpensive ones. Go to our our episode where we review vaporizers and you'll be able to see a a good price
range. And I recommend it highly because they've done studies on this and using a vaporizer is far healthier even than from smoking out of a bong. Well, because you don't have the carcinogens, you're not actually burning. You're baking it that. Plant, yeah. How's that brownie? Oh my gosh dude. So for an edible, most of them have like, a little bit of cannabis flavor. Yeah, I feel like this has none. It's like a distillate flavor.
It's fantastic. It's 50 milligrams of THC and 100 milligrams of CBD in each brownie. No, that's not bad. No, that's a pretty good exchange. So you're not gonna go well. I mean, this would be your moderate to. Yeah, it's only 50 milligrams. That's what this motherfucker just said. For me, Not for everyone at home. It's like you're it's like your video that you did when you went to the float deck. I just had a 250 grand looking at Edible about to go into the
float spot. See you guys later. And then everybody's just like, Oh my God. 250 milligrams, I'm like it wasn't even high and. Everybody's like I always wondered about having a panic attack in space. Right. Getting lost in space. Oh shit, I can't get out. Oh man. No, I can imagine. No, I mean, I understand you've got an extremely high tolerance, but what's nice, you know, talking about going back to the strain Chemical Romance, this is
a very chatty strain. It's not a cottonmouth strain by any means, very nice. And that goes to what, you know, you're very deep in the paint. Cannabis enthusiasts slash scientists slash historians out there would be like, well, of course, dumbass. When you have these certain terpene profiles, it's going to enhance this. What am I not getting based on looking at that? I'm not getting any heart. Palpitations, panicky racing on. Nice. I feel really energetic.
I feel a little bit in my eyes, top of my hip, but it's very gentle. Yeah, I. Feel like almost a light dusting on the inside of most of my body. Not my bottom half, no, but like my waist up almost like. Yeah, that's crazy, right? I feel like in my stomach area, like in my abdomen area. But it's not the intensity that feel of a lot of other strains or like tightness or like pressure or like focused.
It's literally just like I came inside of myself and went and blue smoke just kind of lightly everywhere. And I'm like, oh cool look here, I feel it. Yeah, it's super good. I I like it. Even the Brandon always selects the type of color of light before every single episode. And this blue is perfect. This is a very cerebral high I was. Like we're just going to change it up. Yeah, but I mean, I like that because it's for right now.
It's one of these strains that really give death of color like you, you open it up. Now remember, remember kids, that cannabis is a mild hallucinogen. Do not get that twisted. And so when you start experiencing, when you take too much, you start to green out. Green out usually means that you're in close to a very psychedelic experience, yeah, and that includes the state of paranoia. That is an altered ego state.
It altered mental. State when you can see tracers or fractal patterns on crazy high doses if you're not accustomed to that. So yeah, it can be incredibly terrifying I'm sure for that type of experience, but as we found one of the best terpenes for that. Is lemonade. And so introducing that, like even a shot of lemon juice or something can really reduce those heart racing feelings and that anxiety that you get while your CBD kicks in and helps bring you to a nice even keel.
See, that's where I think about like like our friend Kyle out there in Texas, and I know he still listens to the show and he said his struggles with cannabis. And I and I hope you're OK with me talking about you, bro, but I'm going anyways because I think about that now. Now, if I'm thinking about what do I really need out of this, can I study more about these terpenes?
We'll create another one O 1 of going in depth on just one terpene and we'll go into like what are some of the good things, what are some of the bad things? What are the things that couple really well to it Including? Not only that, because you got to understand that what you put into your body food wise can greatly enhance your experience. Oh, 100%, yeah. Because, I mean, people go, oh, if you eat mangoes, you'll get higher. It's a small amount of mirror scene.
Yeah, like and it's not and it have to be really dry. Get a concentrated terpene of straight mirror scene and put that on your flower. You'll feel that you will make that. Oh, I love it. Yeah. No, that night I all right. Yeah, I I didn't even know where I was. I got new weekend plans. Now there you go dude. There you go that he blast off but you know it's it's having a strain such as Chemical Romance which mad thanks thank fade Co thank you story mad live. You guys are awesome.
Yeah, it's super cool if you have a fade Co products near you. Highly recommended if you want information on it. I think now what you should be looking for as opposed to just Sativa or anitika, because now you can be a canister by being able to just look at the terpene profiles and start being able to guess on you know what. It's probably more this because true dyed in the wool never changed. Strains are extinct the. Aren't cultivars from cultivars always going to be different?
Exactly. Cultivars are going to be the same and what? Climate and what temperature and all the elements the. Variations in terpene profiles. You're never going to have exact from one to the next to the next, but it's like there's always a variation. I think that's where you can go. Where I I like the names because it helps me to identify a feeling for me. I take a subconscious state, an unconscious state, where I associate those now with how I will feel.
So knowing if I can find information, it just on the bare minimum of a terpene profile now knowing that I can be able to arm it. So you know, Kyle has a lot of problems with anxiety and things like that, right? He talked about. And he actually said that since he's been off cannabis for what has it been a couple months, now he's. Feeling better? He hasn't had anxiety like it's not been anywhere near as bad. Could you imagine if he was using more of a lemonine focused
diet? Maybe that's a crazy, but at the same time like because we we've talked about it a little bit, him and I and just he's really explained a lot of like you know, it's mindset, it's everything to do with it. And then realizing that he didn't actually need cannabis anymore. It wasn't actually helping him address the issues or like things like that that are. It just it's very different and that's OK at times that, you know, maybe you don't utilize cannabis or.
I find that I use it more, more medicinally and it varies and it's just like anything else because I I was contemplating because I kind of felt like I was using too much during that time. I mean, I was smoking four to six bowls a day. Of this in Little Rebel. But for Noah, it just seems like excessive for me because I'm normally not a wake and Baker. When you don't have that, yeah, it's not something you've done for.
But now I find that I use cannabis in different ways to enhance my body, such as people using peptides or using hormone treatments. I find that I get a way better workout when I'm elevated. I I feel like. I get a better connection to that. I feel like it's improved. Like I just got all my blood work done for being a diabetic. And you know, besides my sugar levels, like I'm doing great. And he asked like, what's something that you're constantly doing?
I'm like, I use cannabis daily and he goes like CBD and I'm like that too. Yeah. And he just goes, oh really? And it turned into this conversation with my doctor about, you know, the efficacy and and the the benefits of it in so many different ways. Yeah, well, that's awesome. I feel like those really need to happen, especially with some of these medical professionals, because while there are some who are educated in that area, there
are many that aren't. And we're actually going to do a sash with an audience member who is going to one of the few universities in the United States that has a cannabis program now. Where's that? Maryland, I believe. University of Maryland, I think they said so, yeah, very interesting. But what I was learning recently was that there's only like those four or five schools around the nation that even mention the
endocannabinoid system at all. Aside from that, most medical professionals are not taught anything about any of that. Yeah. And there's a lot of so-called medical professionals who are very of an older idea of medicine and will not accept this as as a viable solution because the DEA and the FDA don't, you know, condone it. Yeah. And. But the medical studies are there to be able to. How it helps you. That's why I look at this as essential as, as vitamins for people to take him.
Do I need it? Can I live without it? Absolutely. I can live without it. Yeah. But. And you don't always necessarily need every vitamin. It's what is your body deficient in? Because every bot, every human has endocannabinoids that naturally occur in their body, but with stress and anxiety and depression and not perfect appetites or not perfect, like stuff that we put into our body and ingest into it, you know, and our sleep patterns aren't the best.
We end up being not always in homeostasis. It's harder for our body to even return to that, right? So these vitamins are cannabinoids that you can phyto cannabinoids you can introduce from a plant back into your body. Like why not help it get to that? Yeah, I I, I I don't know. I just been. I just treated like the same. I I think of how we talk about it as a as a medicine.
And I think about like, I don't take Tylenol or ibuprofen often, but I do take it when I need it because I know it will help me in that moment. And you know, people go, oh, it'll destroy this and that and the other thing in your body, great, totally known. But those are people who are abusing the shit out of it. Like they're pop and ibuprofen all day long. They don't even know when they took their last. They're just taking more because. They don't want to take 800
milligrams 2-3 times a day. That fucks up your body, but it. It like today. If that's regular, yeah. This is also a pretty decent pain relieving my knee. My right knee don't have an ACL. It's constantly hurting when I put stress on it. But using this strain right now, I don't feel that pain in my knee at all. It's very light throughout my body right now even though I I've just you know, that was awesome too.
Like I've only loaded up what's like 2 pinches to fill this bowl and I've been using the same bowl. I still have Greens. Oh wow. Yeah, that's awesome. Like I was. Even if it's like a mustardy yellow that's a very light hint of mustardy yellow. I can still smoke this same bowl for a while. That's why I love about vaporizers and if you are so inclined to make your own edibles, you just keep that. Always save it and. This is all just vaporized flour.
Yeah, and that'll turn. I mean, you get enough of that. You could make some killer, like you could make it a teencher. You can like edibles. This is easily half an ounce of flour that's vaporized. Dude, that's freaking awesome. So in the and so that's why I invest into a good vaporizer. And for those who are kind of getting this, I really like cannabis. But I don't like the panicky. I, you know, it just it feels like I'm I just don't.
I just can't really enjoy it. They're all alternatives and you know our friends at at Cycling Frog, they are absolutely amazing. The taste is really good. We've actually been talking about like doing a bunch of mixers and stuff like that for this. So we've got some plans to do some cool like fun marketing with them. We. Were talking about this. We went to the gym before we went recording today and we were talking about how the grapefruit actually has like a super mild flavor.
This has been the most flavored 1 so far, like grapefruit. I love grapefruit, I just wish it had like a slight bit more grapefruit flavor to it. You mean like a little bit of sweetness? No, I love the tart. I love the tart of grapefruit. I will drink like straight grapefruit juice. Yeah, it's good. I mean, I I like a. Little bit more of that. I agree. Kick to it. Yeah, just a little bit more of the bite.
But like we also said, I've I've been getting into like some of the water Excel sort of shit, the sparkling waters and that. Welcome to being old. Yeah. And I'm like, this just makes me think a lot of that. So if that's the case, I don't it's not as big of a deal. Maybe if it is flavored water. Well, in in thinking about, you know, chemical romance and going, Jess, you know, you just smoked, you know, quite a bit and now you're going to have a 5
milligram THC, 10 milligram CBD. This is a very mild this is a very nice chill. Relax. This should be treated the same as you would with any type of like white claw, honestly, because this is going to give you about the same potency of alcohol. Or, if you're still new, only drink half of it. Yeah, well, that's the good thing. It's not, it's not so sweet that you want to guzzle it because, you know, the the really sweet stuff and it just hit you,
right. Like Coca-Cola. Like I haven't had a Coke in three years and good for you. Yeah, but I think about it all the time. I fucking seriously do. Like. I think about, like if I didn't get, like, a certain strain, Like, I love Jack Herrera. I love Pineapple Express. Yeah, especially if it's in a distillate that's tasty. Like, I just love that. But. I don't think I've craved a soda in like 5 years at least. Oh, I I still will have like a ginger ale now and then.
And it's OK because it's the Coke. It's something in coke that makes me think about it, like I will sniff it. That's funny. If my kid has it and I should be like, no, you can't fucking drink that. What's wrong with you? But you know, they're them. It's their choice. I'm. I mean, they got their agency up to a certain point, but. I think these are great, These are good. So Alicia, Alicia has really liked these because she's like, oh, you know, after work or
something. And I'm stressed and I don't want to have a drink and I don't really want to smoke because it's, you know, I don't want to get too high. It was perfect. Well, they, they had sent us all that stuff. They, you know, the hat they sent. Yeah, I actually gave that to one of my wife's friends. She loves it. Their product absolutely loves it. Oh, yeah, she's got it in her fridge stocked. She actually won one of the contests.
Oh yeah, I. Didn't even know until, well, later she goes, oh, I'm like, I didn't know because I didn't choose it, because it was. We would put it through a filter and it yeah, pick names. But yeah, I she absolutely loved it. And I I said my wife, I was like, hey, take this hat, give it to her because she's like a huge fan and she always goes on cruises. They, her and her husband go on cruises like 3 or 4 * a year. That's cool. Like it's a perfect party cruise hat. Super cool.
Go check them out. They're awesome. Seeing the show notes on there. And they've got all sorts of products, all sorts of drinks, these brownies. Did we get a code from them yet? Well, they had one that they were giving us for all of dry January and all of our audience got 20% off through dry January. But now it's February. So we'll have to reach out and see if they've got something new for February. Yeah, but. Yeah, totally. That's where they get.
I mean, adding it to what we've had already kind of funny because of the CBD in it, it's kind of mellowed it out a little bit more. So that's kind of nice. This cuts it down just a little bit, just the CBD, because Chemical Romance doesn't have any CBD. How are you feeling? I feel great. I feel very clear headed. Super clear, but like no pressure. Like I don't feel like pressure from the strain anywhere. I I. Feel a little bit. But I'm wearing a hat, so yeah,
I think it might. I'm a little bit more sensitive on my forehead just because of that. I really like this. This is a fantastic strain. Daytime you could get. You could get work done on this, but I would use this as a play. This is Fuck It Fridays. Like it's not it's. I done it Phil with this but it's. Yeah, but I, I, I would, I would like to go do something. It doesn't feel like a bucket strain for me, but like I feel like I could go enjoy myself.
That's what I'm saying, yeah, just enjoy yourself. Like I could play video games after this like for hours. I mean, Insurgency has now got the update for PS5, so it's got the haptic feedback and stuff. If you guys play, it's. Throwing me off. It's so good, dude. It's such a fun game. Yeah, it's I I really, really like this. If you are near a if you can get to fake Co products, pick it up. This is fantastic. We actually had this in a pre roll, yeah, but I don't.
Like smoking joints in here, honestly. I totally get and it's it's more of an outdoor activity anyways, I feel because it gets really cloudy. Yeah, super smoky because it's constantly burning too. Right. I mean, even though we got, you know, our favorite bong. Are are the jet. Yeah, the jet systems. That's always gonna be in every show that's permanent. That's the coolest fucking bog ever. Smoothest headed oh. That's so awesome. Go check them out.
But this is really, really good. I enjoy this. This is a very good strain. Makes me a little antsy. Makes me wanna go do things like I either. I gotta be. My mind's gotta be. Antsy. Not at all. OK. Feeling like you wanna be doing something, Yeah. Like you know, Hey, you wanna go? 'Cause it's like a great, energized kind of, oh, that would be dope. Yeah, let's get baked and let's get a let's get a whole bunch of people out. Let's let's get it together.
We'll we'll plan it. There's one of the biggest indoor. Cart art places here. Yeah, here in Utah, they're super fast. We need to do that. We need to get a party together. Don't worry, we'll let you pay. And no. But seriously, that'd be so cool. Get a bunch of people together here in Utah, fans of the show. We get together, have a social meet and greet, and we go race those those go karts. That'd be dope, that. 'D be so much fun. Be dope.
I haven't done those in ages. If we if we have a a benefactor here in Utah, they'd be willing to be able to help fund that. That'd be super cool. Reach out to us. But yeah, highly recommend the stream Fantastic High in Lemonine. That's your terpene profile, so look at that. You're going to be able to see that. Betamiroscene and Littleamiroscene. Right.
Well, and you think about it, the products that you're looking at even if you're looking at distillates, it acts it it if it doesn't say on the cart the the packaging or if you're at most I'm, I'm starting to see more bud tenders being a lot more educated on the terpenes, but they're few and far between. So, and I I get it, why would you want to invest a lot if it's just a job to you, if it's a passion for you and you're like,
I'm in the industry? Well, because you genuinely care and have interest in the client, right. So then it's like, hey, most of those discounts, yeah, right. Because that's a big thing. I feel like that would be nice. Dude, And that'd be great. You know, I think it'd be cool to work in a dyspo like once a week. I would be kind of cool, actually, yeah. Like like one of their high, high medical days. Maybe we'd go talk to Dragonfly and see if.
We could get that right. Or something and that would be. Awesome. That'd be so cool. Like, we can't record in there. That was that first time going to a medical dispensary here after we got our cards, and that was that was crazy because it felt really cool. Though it was by far one of my best experiences in a dispensary ever. Really. Yeah, because most of the dispensaries I got, you know, I come and it is just just the luck of the draw.
They the people, either look incredibly high or very fucking bored. They're usually, I think, the first one. Yeah, I mean, and I'm. Fine with that. It just depends. I don't think there should be like a thing where there's like, hey, you know, it's got to be high in lemony and if you're going to work the counter, if you get indica, they go. Most of them aren't supposed to smoke before anyway, like even in other states I've gone. Because I talk to him every time. Like, are you guys high?
Like, no, we're not supposed to. Like I'm like, I guess it's a business if you know that some people might not focus well or they might use a screen that doesn't you want to or hyper. Get caught in the conversation, not actually sell anything. But like you said, there's that company in California who has like cannabis you can use or mushrooms you can use at the workplace because they know of the productivity they can get out of their employees. Which is crazy. Yeah. So it's great.
Let's go over there, take a cap. Right. Microdose, I mean, I do it, you do it, I do it. But at the same time where it's not for someone else's company. Well, and every day, that's pretty intense. I wouldn't microdose, but for someone who uses cannabis to function and do work, yeah that would be incredible. They use cannabis, yeah, in their workplace. I think that's amazing because you know, especially if you're part of a creative agency going into the.
Flow and the creative state and yeah. Like if you can get a group of people together that are creatives and get them a little blazed, you're going to see some pretty cool shit come out of there. Well even if not like if you can find strains that help you focus. I ran tech stuff and did IT stuff and was able to hyper focus while using cannabis.
Like there are uses just depending on the terpenes and the like, what it is that it's doing to your body, how it's interacting with you, that could be really good for most jobs. Now there are a few that like even doing construction.
There's certain levels of I need cannabis in my body for pain, but I don't want to be passed here because I noticed that there is even a momentary delay is terrible when doing things like I don't want to be using a saw and have a momentary delay or like my motion feels like it's that you know any time delay. So there is always that you know specific level of functionality or like perfect zone. Yeah, I agree. I and. But how hard is that for many people to find?
I think it is pretty hard for them to find out. I mean, I'm thinking about right now like how I feel and I have altered the state I'm in where this, the drink has changed the focus. So that's kind of nice too. It's, I'm, I'm a little bit more on the whoosh side, like how water splashing in the bathtub type feel. Yeah, I feel that now and I didn't feel that before and so I'm just like, oh, but it makes sense. I mean, this is a it's a DD9 product, right?
Probably, I would guess. It's a delta 9 product. That all of these are. Them derived. But you know, I'm not a D8 fan by any means. Yeah, big hard pass. We have a dab rig that was sent out by a company called Cake and they sent us this 2G cartridge and that cartridge had a label that it said it was THCA and I was like oh cool, so I took a couple hits and I'm like, this
feels weird. So I go look up their COA and it says Delta 8. Like there's 0% Delta 9 THCM, like it's just Delta 8. This is horrible. I don't want this. Oh, he he handed it to me. It tasted like a nicotine vape. On the IT really fucked the experience out. Like it instantly altered I. Just needed the feel. And I was like, no, I got to take normal cannabis now. Like this feels dirty, yeah? Seriously, I had to go smoke a bowl like almost immediately
after to get rid of that. Feel I don't like D8. It's so synthetic. Let us know, do you guys have D8 products that you like? What do you like about the experience of Delta 8? Because for Jesse, for me, it's it's not been an experience that we've found that we enjoy. No, it's it's a very odd experience and it's a very uncomfortable experience for me. It feels manufactured. Well, and but I would say this though, if if you have only experienced D8, then you don't know any, you don't know any
different. Yeah, and you don't know what you're saying now. Yeah, and there's a different feel. But if you're in a state that is selling Delta 8, what I would actually look for right now is the THCA. And then check their COA, if you can, to actually make sure that the cannabinoids that are are THCA, because that's the same as cannabis in any other state. It's just the COA attached to it.
Because everything you buy in California, Utah, Oregon, Washington, Colorado, like any of these states, it's all THCA until you light it and then it drops off the acidic form and that's what gets you high. Yeah, that's. THC Yeah, so it is the same stuff potentially as long as their COA can prove that. So I would look into that, check it out. And for all of our Patreon supporters, hey, we love you guys. Yeah, we've been able. We've seen that grow.
