Return of the Mack

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, flour, edibles, strains, and everything in between. When you do that, I go like this, go back forth, back forth, and then I spin it and then I tap it. To make all the stuff. To get it all down. But the cool thing is you got your brush. This is nice. So brush it all out. Well, you can brush out even the keys that would be in it.

And I get a nice little pout. I get a little like line of keef, like cocaine keef. That's what I call. Snort it. And I just brush it lightly into the bowl. Yeah. Oh dude, it's amazing. But look at the cut. It does look really nice, like the. It's a little bit more it it but the the smell is better. Different consistency. It's finer. Where's your other? Oh, here. Stash one's right there. Put it in the top. So it's like I. Pull it. No, no, no, no. Oh yeah, This whole thing, you

can lift it out. So this is what's cool. So you can tap it out, it comes out, I mean, but it's so soft. That was another thing that I love, dude. Dragonfly flower. It just grinds so soft. It's like it's it's literally like flower flower, but other ones it's dry. So then here get that to that part. Just get rid of all the keef that's underneath. Yeah, that's all I do now with every grind and it's so awesome because we never think to put Keef into our grind unless it's just there.

Yeah, because usually I don't think about I should open my keef catcher and like put flour on it. I think it's kind of a waste to have a Keef catcher to be honest because unless you're going to be used, unless you're a Keef person. I like It's great if you remember to use it, but I don't often remember to use it.

I saw this one guy on the video dude and he had a grinder and after he pulled off the bottom with his keef catcher and it was literally like it looked like kinetic sand because it was so high. And I'm like like good Lord, that guy's smoking a ton because when I get into a mode like I'll just sit here and just turn it. But what's awesome I love about it is that it's super easy to clean, but it just feels awesome. I and I don't mind the size.

I find that sometimes using the grinder, the topple twist off or something like that. Like I'll tell you right now dude, the best one that I had so far and I'm so stupid about it is been the the the cheaper one of the stash one that you gave me. Oh love that one. And sharp stones. I haven't. I haven't had or used my a sharp stone in ages. I have a sharp stone at home. I gave mine away I've. Got that one and then I got my green cross one but that's only for psilocybin. Ah, interesting.

I'm grinding it up for tea. So we we got to do an episode. Yeah, it's going to be the sesh where we call. It a hell of a sesh, yeah. We're going to call it Frank Herbert. 'S right into the wormhole. Oh my gosh. With the worms. Yeah, Today though, where it is a dragonfly grow, but it's their zero brand. What is 0 brand? So 0 brand is at least when we talk to Nerath was this is basically the same quality grown, it's just not trimmed.

So it was you could buy 0, but it just came with when Nerath was telling us it was like it came with the trim still on it and you had to trim it. But when I'm looking at the nugs, I would actually say these look like, and granted this one says trimmed on it there. So this is obviously trimmed nugs, but I'm looking at it like it just seems to me like any other flower. And if that's the case and it's already pre trimmed, you know as long as the experience is good,

who cares? So let's talk about that. So what are we smoking today? So Mac or Miracle Alien Cookies it is. Let's take a gander and see. So that comes from Alien Cookies and Colombian mixed with Starfighter. So it's supposed to be very funky, fruity kind of smells experience. Yeah, let's see. I was really impressed though. It is a very, very dry feeling flower. Well, you can even see it like you can tell when a flower Dude, I that was almost too much. Hold on.

OK, so smell it in the bag and then smell it there because I feel like the smell. It smells like grass clippings to me. It smells. Dry. Yeah, it smells like grass in there. But then when I smell it ground up, I get the fruity notes, I get more of the tones that actually come. Well, you think about those those terpene oils like with the friction from the grinder.

Breaking them. Yeah, it releases those oils almost like when you like get like certain types of herbs and you'll put them on the stove and you'll you'll kind of roast them to release the oils and the flavors from it. It's exact same thing I think of. Yeah, it's weird. Oh, that's funky. But it has way more smells that come from the ground up flour than it did from the package. You know what it makes me think of that zero means old. And it's very possible.

'Cause it's like, oh, you guys like this? Like those are old shit. I mean it, there's a very, oh, interesting, very earthy notes, very earthy tones. Today's vaporizing is brought to you by Stores of Pickle. We've got the Mighty Plus and we've got the Venti. Oh, these are fantastic devices, honestly. That one's the best battery wise, flow wise, price wise. 6 is on battery honestly. It's not amazing, but I really like that you can just keep going and you decide when it's

done. I kind of feel like sometimes I've burned through my bowl on this and it's still going. On that one. So I just got to turn down my my temperature, but I actually like to turn it up towards the end to get the rest of that, like, burn off the rest. I can sometimes. Yeah. Because I don't want to sit there and stir it around every time. I mean, that's what this little device is for. Have you. You can stir it around. Have you ever taken it out and

really stirred the bowl? No, not in a vaporizer, I haven't. It's not like I feel like it. Sure. Yeah, I I've pushed the bowl. Down on a bowl like on a bong to like get get it back into the middle and stuff. Especially if it's like packed really tight, then you can just kind of put that around there. But I'm excited to be able to do it. But what I got to say, man, is I love these ones. Like the Mighty is great. The size sucks the bottom. These are pretty big. What the fuck?

But I love that one and and the reason why is one, it's easier on the hand it's comparable to the almost exact same price. So. That's two What's this, 299? Well, I'm not sure 'cause we. Saw this as 299. We saw it at Dragonfly last time and that one they had listed at 399. So let's let's go to stores and back. Oh my gosh. Right, OK. Oh, that's another thing to keep in mind with that Vaporizers don't pull like you're pulling off a bong. It's harsh. Yeah, slow. All right, so let's take a

gander here. We got portable vaporizers from stores and Bickel and. Oh, right. So the Mighty Plus comes in at 399. Now, the Venti comes in at 4:49. However, that's just there. I bet if you go look for sales and deals you could probably find one for 400. Like the same exact cost as a Mighty Plus. Stores in Bickel hooks up with the code. My goodness, these things. We have an investment, we have a team there, but they're out of, they were out of town for the holidays.

I shot them an e-mail. So we're just waiting on the code. As soon as we do get that, we will have that in the show notes. So stay tuned. Check out stores in Bickel. And it's really, it's another thing to keep in mind and we'll go back into the strain. Another thing to really keep in mind about vaporizers is you got to think about longevity and cleaning ability. So many different ones that we've tried. I like air vapes. I love the size I like, especially now where it's winter

time. It's a little hand warmer. Yeah, the whole thing warms up, but it's not uncomfortably warm. So there's a some Facebook group that I'm in about vaporizers and someone had commented in there and they were like, hey, can you find me a device that's easy to clean because they have the mighty plus. However, this person is blind. Yeah. And I was like, that's really interesting. But the they said stores and Bickel for them is actually a little bit more difficult to

clean just because of that. And I was like, oh shit. Yeah. What what what? I recommend to like someone who is blind and I. The one. Yeah, the one or like the the X Vapes Aria that just has that little top that pops off. Super easy. Very simple to clean, like not a lot of parts to pull apart so it should be pretty simple. But that was something I was like I never thought about. Like if I were blind. Is there a device that might be

better? When you think about the one and that size it is, I mean it is the easiest device. What I didn't like about it was its size and its heating capabilities after about 5 bowls. And then after that, I mean, it's not just, it's not a super expensive vaporizer, but it's a very simplistic vaporizer. Like it's like dab rigs, dude, like your Doctor Dabber switch. That thing's fucking awesome. It's also the size of a lamp. Yeah, so with that one, like there is let's think of.

Oh so apparently even with Doctor Dabber the the mighty like the the Doctor Dapper switch, the one I have has a different. Those terps will get you. Yeah, they're just wrong. It's it's the pole. It's all on the pole. Dude. I I don't do this until I started sitting here. I mean, this is how stupid I am. I'm all thinking like I got to pull this like like a bong or a joint. It's the lightest inhale with the stabilizers. I missed that before. Science.

Yeah, I don't know. It's not a bad strain. It is very, very dry. It smells way better when it's ground up. You get some of the the fruitier sense the other. Yeah, I didn't like the flavor right away. It was very, I hate to say it like this, but medicinal. Oh, OK, yeah. It just felt very, you know what I'm just going to say, guys, is this tastes like dry weed. This tastes like older weed. That's cool that I actually know how to disturb that.

But also, that's probably why it's one of the cheaper ones. You know, you, you do get what you pay for. There is definitely a difference in quality from bottom of the barrel to you know. Is that your for grounds? Yep, Yep. OK, cool. Yeah, I just actually emptied that again yesterday because it

was pretty full. And that's what I've loved is the multi purpose use of dryer vaporizer products is I can make edibles, tinctures, lotion, you know, whatever I need to or want to from that and I still get to experience the elevated experience from the flower in the first place. So yeah, it's Dryer January and if you don't have a vaporizer, totally fine. We encourage you to use a dryer vaporizer. A lot of reasons for your

health. I was smoking too much flour every day and somebody said, good Lord, what do you mean there's no too much flour that. Was me. It wasn't. It it was you and and and and Brandon's not religious. So when he said good Lord, I was like, wait, what? Oh, something must be. Something is amiss, but what was interesting is that I was coughing all the time. All the time.

Like my wife was getting pretty concerned and there was a night where we went out, we enjoyed bong together and I was coughing for probably about 20-30 minutes after just constantly. You know they do notice though and it kind of sucks because it's seasonal in Utah. The dryer gets more coughing. Winter because we get the inversion, the really, really horribly shitty air. Oh, it comes this way. So the usual shitty air quality in the winter time makes it way

harder. I cough more often even if I'm not consuming. Like my lungs just struggle more because there's just more shit in the air. And so I can imagine especially winter time that like using any type of inhalable, especially flame, the flower is really harsh. But what else? Got a frog in my throat there. But one of the good things is about the dryer vaporizers is that you will cut the terps will cough. You got to do a real gentle

poll. I'm just impatient, that's all it is. But you do these really slow, like almost gradual, like you're barely pulling. But you got to know that the the vapor is going up and through this anyways. And so you just barely pull. You're going to get a quite a bit in there. And it reduces the heat of the smoke going into your lungs. That's what you're coughing is because of the heat. Yeah, but. Because even at this it's I mean

healing 365° air. Yeah, but if you slowly do it, it it really pull it off oh real fast. And you notice that I'm not coughing right now. Dude, if I smoked a bong I'd still be coughing. Yeah, I feel like if we were rocking George, George Jetson this morning, we would be definitely a little bit. We be now. Here's the downside. You don't get the exact same experience as burning plant. I don't 100%. I don't. Dude. I've got apples and bananas. OK. Got to bring that for the next

show. Oh, I also have apples and apple fritters. Apple fritters, but I have apples and bananas. That's what I smoked all of. That's what it. Was no I I have a nug set aside we are good, but that one I had that in my vaporizer and it wasn't the same. Now guess which one it wasn't the same flavors aren't great with this. I've noticed that with the mighty with the venti they're amazing with this one, not so much.

Why the airflow and you know what the other one is because I'm like all excited because I can't wait till I get home. So I was thinking about it. I'm going to clean my air vapes. I haven't cleaned it. I'm a dirty fucker. I do wash my ass. I want you guys to know that right now I'm very particular about making sure that that smells good and, and no reason other than I I just self-conscious of it. You ever been somewhere where somebody's got that nasty ass? Like go to the DMV?

And you could smell it. Yeah, that sounds gross. Oh, dude, like, let me tell you a funny story. Like I was working at the state hospital and there was this big guy named Tyler and he had this voice that only a metal Lord could be excited about. He was like always like this. And so I was like, but he was sitting you'd you do these watches for an hour. You do a one to one watch with a patient because they were either really violent or very sick.

So you stay there and he's sitting in a plastic chair. OK. The watch switches. I was the, I was the head supervisor, so I didn't have to do that shit. I just send all my minions out and I would, I would schedule them out for the full 8 hours. And I'm like, hey, here's what you're doing. And then I would just supervise and keep the peace. But this woman comes over to me like she just got the watch and she walked away from it. And I'm like, what do you do

something going on? She's like, yeah, can you get me a new chair? And I'm like, what you talking about? And she goes well, Tyler sat in that chair and I'm like, OK, come with me. And we literally came over here. Now that's about 15 minutes have Tyler has left left. The smell of ass was still. I mean, it's plastic bro. One don't heat up things in the microwave. Why? Because the plastic gets porous and it also goes in the microplastics, goes into your food.

But this guy did it in reverse. His ass was so hot that the smell seeped into the plastic. And it said we'll stay here for a while. I literally went and got a mask and we had alcohol foam before hand sanitizer. They had these things look like shaving cream and you go and it was just straight alcohol, but it was perfect. I mean, it worked fast and it dried quick and there was no like icky weird feeling and you didn't taste anything after.

They should bring that back. But I I hosed that thing down and they got a like hand towel and I threw the hand towel away like I'm no washing that, even though they have like these massive industrial washers there. Nope. I wiped it down. We left it at the end of the hall. I got her a new chair, went down there. It's still fucking stunk. What the crap?

So that's why, like, I am so self-conscious about that stuff, Emily. Sent me this TikTok the other day and I was watching through the TikTok she sent last night and it was like this woman. She's like, if you're a man, I want you to do something. I want you to take your hand and I want you to stick it down the back of your pants and I want you to cup and then I want you to pull it out. And if it smells like gross, you don't deserve respect. And I was just like, oh damn dude.

That reminds me that I know everybody's been like, if you're anywhere on social at all or on no, it's usually on social. You ever heard of Mando cream? No. Apparently this is like deodorant mainly for men. It's for your asshole, for your taint, and for your balls. And she's always like it. She's like older and so she's like sitting on the porch and she's like, what you got to do is get down there and get your hands down there near your Schnitzel sack and and then sniff your bed.

She's doing this shit on the fucking video and all. I think it is She is so confident because if she's got something rotting down there, that's going to be a horrible idea. She knows she's OK, but. She she's a doctor and she created this soap. And yeah, but it has different types of acids that don't fuck with your body pH. So apparently you take a little dab, you tickle your asshole and you you wipe down your boys and don't forget your frog foot and you're good to go.

Like, you're good to go. Like you could go over there. And all I'm thinking is is like, you're frog. Yeah, dude, that's what some people said when I was a kid. And I'm like, I have no idea what that is. Like, Taint, where did that come from? Like taint, Like somebody was over there going. And Sir, what is that vacancy between your asshole and your balls? And he goes. I'm going to call it a tight no, dude. I mean, it's just like, yeah, but. All right, so back, back to flowers.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. How are you feeling on this shit? Dude, it's, I don't know, it's not. I feel it bad. I feel it. I feel. It in my face. Oh dude, it's a heady high, Yeah. But like it is a pretty balanced hybrid. Like my body feels a little bit of relaxation but not like overly relaxed. I don't feel hyper focused but I don't feel like. I feel slightly anxious. Really. But not in the sense of in my chest or like what my body, my arms feel like they can't sit still.

That explains that crazy rant that was going on about your Schnitzel sack. That's. Hilarious. Like duty just went off because it it, it's not, I mean, definitely not a focus strain for a hybrid sativa leaning. That's kind of weird. Yeah, well, I mean. I mean, it's all the terpenes. What's the terps? Oh, the terps on this one are, let's see, lemonine, karyopheline, alpha pining, linol, and beta pining. The pining, dude, we got 2 pinings and pining is a great scrambler for me.

If you put pining in there and if it's like one of the top three, I'm feeling it. It's not bad. It's 24% THC. No, that's really decent that I mean that's decent enough for you heavy consumers. I will tell you that a little goes a long way. I can only imagine what it would be like in in flat a flame to flower. I would think it would be even stronger for a little bit, but it would go faster. The one thing I really do like about vaporizers is that my high

lasts a little longer. It's slower. I wonder if it's almost like an edible effect. Yeah, that's what I was going to say more of that edible feeling. But again, it's because probably it's baked because when you they've got. Fried. Yeah, you get to that, like, temperature that doesn't burn off the terpenes, but if you're flamed to flour, you're killing all those terpenes and. Oh yeah. And, you know, so I would wager it's a very different experience Flamed. Flour.

And the really cool thing is there's no added fat. Yeah. Do you see all that fucking sugar? Yeah. We're going. To be tweaking for days. Dude this so I'm actually pleasantly surprised. I I like it. It's very dry mouth but in a weird way. My lips and around my gums, over my teeth, my. Lips are super dry. Yeah, my lips are dry right here underneath the gums are dry. That's. So weird. Yeah, I didn't think about that, but. The thing is, is I'm not munchy at all.

There are strains where I'm like, oh. Hyper munchy. Yeah, the grape Gelato. Delicata grapes. Delicata grapes. Fucking hell that's such a weird name. I know who the fuck named that. Probably whoever named like half the. Other shit, Delicata grapes, so they're like, no one's going to remember that, but I'm over here going Alaskan Thunderfuck. I'll smoke it.

You know, it's funny, I was talking to someone actually about that strain and they were just kind of blown away that we had had Alaskan Thunderfuck. I'm like. What do you mean? We've had tons of strains, like so many strains. So it's it's really interesting because I'm like, well, I mean, you could go back and watch our show and get just a scratching of the surface of all the strains that I've touched or you know, like there's tons that I'm sure are not anywhere even in the show.

Oh no, I mean, there's probably some that aren't even being, you know, harvested at all right now because it's just so many different ones. One I would like to taste in flour would be what was that called Limoncello. Oh. My gosh, right. If we could find limoncello, who? Who has limoncello and flour? This is really I actually am really liking the flavours later on in this bowl. Really. Yeah. Did you load a new one? I did. This is the second bowl. You know what, I should probably

load another one. I'm feeling quite good though. That's another thing too, to kind of keep in mind. What I really like about these Use less flour. It's true, I do use a lot less product. Dude when I was just doing straight bong like I had an eighth and it disappeared in like 2 days and I'm like what the fuck is wrong with me? But it's not that much when you think about it realistically. And you're like, OK, a good sized bowl is probably a gram. So how many bowls can you get

out of an eighth? 3 1/2 bowls. If you're lucky, you might actually between those three get that other half gram. So you might have three solid bowls from that 8th. And if you're using like what a bowl a day, you're literally, you know, that'd be 3 days if just one bowl in the entire day and it would be gone. Like I look at an eighth and it's like, that's a nice snack. Like I can I can go through an eighth in a day easy if I tried.

Well, I, I slow it down now and I look at, you know, what am I doing? I'm, I'm changing up my diet, you know, I'm using a little bit of edibles here and there. I'm using, you know, dryer vaporizers or. I do notice those edibles make my other products go so much

farther. Oh dude. Because I like then I'm only going, hey, I can take, I can smoke 1 little bowl out of the venti or I can take a couple puffs off of a pen and all of a sudden I am feeling like really nice off of some edibles and a couple puffs. Dude, like that's one of the things like I do before we play now, because I always feel like towards the middle or the end of our play, I'm done. Like I'm, I'm already a back.

Yeah. And I mean, I know I still got the can of cannabis, still doing its work, but I just feel like I'm not there. But what I do now because of those, those amazing eddies we got, I'll take like a a shaving off of there. I'll take a little bite and then I'll go smoke a bowl and I'll feel the effects. And then it's like almost like this is like Gran Turismo thing. Like Brandon's got this killer set up. Brandon got a cool wheel for Christmas. My sister-in-law had the same, Will says.

My kids don't play it. Do you want to borrow it? I'm like hell yeah, borrow it mean it just stays in my house. So it's pretty much mine now. Because they never raced. It and they it's too complicated for them. My kids tried it once. My my daughter, my 12 year old daughter is the one who's the best at it. That's hilarious. And my my 71 year old dad, like I have actually got him excited about video games and he started asking me like pricing and all this shit.

So that's cool. So I mean, if my dad could have one game, because he all he does is watch like just random shit, like he'll start coming to me going about any political figure or something about aliens. And I'm like, fuck, stay away from YouTube. Like he's like, did you know this? Like I said, did they get text messages? Like did you know this? And I'm like, yeah, I was like, if you really want your mind blown, here's this saying. Down the YouTube rabbit.

Hole. Oh yeah, that'll take you. Everywhere. Oh my gosh. Yeah. But oh, you know what? We need to mention something real quick. There is this horrible fire going on in LA right now. Our hearts are with you guys. That's insanely. Good. No. I had a friend post something about it and they're like oh I'm OK. And then I saw a picture. It legit looked from like here to Del Taco, like that's how close the fire. And I was like, what the hell?

Yeah, you see the videos of people in their houses waiting it out, thinking that the fires are going to do it. And it's like licking the windows. And they're like, Nah, dude, you need to get out like right now. And dude, it's so horrible seeing that. So I know that there's a lot of our listeners are, are in that area huge amount. You know, we, we hope everything is going well. We hope your families have been

able to find refuge. And oh man, like people had to leave their cars in the freeway because the fire was coming. They're like, fuck, because it was a wreck up there. Jeez. It's just like fuck. But dude, I had a friend she posted on her Facebook when she was flying into LA for something and it dude it literally looks like one of those post apocalyptic movies because you see the fires but it's usually out like on the mountain sides

and stuff. And in Utah it makes sense because people are fucking retards and they build their houses on a Cliff or on the fucking side of the mountain where it can Slough off if ever an earthquake comes. That's my mind. That's my mind. But. We have some interesting builders here. But the but you got to think like there it's in the population that's. What it looked like in the city, in the city.

And I was like L as burning. Yeah, like, well, and a lot of that has to do with a lot of a lot of their laws too, is finding out about through firefighters that I know a lot of firefighters will not go out of state to a California fire because they don't take precautions. They don't do controlled burns. What? Yeah, a lot of them, they won't allow it because the environmentalists are like, that's not how you're supposed to do it. And if you do that, you're.

That's how Mother Nature did it automatically was it wasn't controlled burns, it was just, it would burn down because, well, that's how Mother Nature does it because it cleanses itself. So if we're not cleaning it, it will. So I just finished the second bowl. It's pretty subtle, like I haven't felt. It wears off pretty quick the the like that heaviness at first and then it just lets off.

Yeah, it's very quick, but that's I, I mean, I haven't introduced today or. Yeah, but I mean even on other strains like you, you heard me earlier, right? I was going way quick and off on tangents because my mind was just going, but I felt really good. Oh yeah, I still feel good, but I don't feel it as much like it really. Just let. Off, yeah. You know, this is like the beef sticks you get at the front counter. It's not horrible, but it's not the best.

Yeah, it's not the best. It's not going to it. It's not real fuel. It'll, it'll satisfy your appetite for the moment, but you know, it's not the it's not a full meal. But again, going to it 24. It's not bad, percent. 24% but I'll tell you right now, I've had better experiences on 15/16. Yeah, 1516, anything under 20. I've had some pretty solid ones. One thing I will say about Mac though, the high amount of limiting that it has in there, which it has a pretty significant amount compared to

any of the terps. No tightness in my chest whatsoever. So maybe for new users, new consumers, Mac Miracle Alien cookies is a fantastic way to go and flour probably in concentrates you. Can get this anywhere I would be really interested. We had a really bad experience with the Mac. Mac one, but that was in distillate. Yeah, it was in the toilet water. So you know this this actually isn't too bad from a flower

perspective. So it's not something that I'd write home about Go Oh my gosh, you should definitely try it. But like if you're starting out, this is really good across the board. Pretty easy strain, pretty nice to get into. Not overly. I actually do notice a tiny bit of tightness in the sides of my neck. Not, not a lot. It's still hovering around my eyes, but it's not like it comes on pretty quickly. I'm surprised with the vaporizer of how quick it came on. Yeah.

It really hit me right in the eyes and right in the upper head, right, right. Yeah, I felt it in the face. Pretty. Right way. But it's it's nice in the sense that if you are looking for a cheaper alternative around you, this is an old school strain. This has been around for quite a long time. Yeah. It's AI mean it's a combination, but it's been, it's been a, a hybrid combination for quite a long time. And it's probably not going to

be your top shelf flower. So you might not pay a crazy amount, you might not spend an arm and a leg in order to try out that experience. Yeah, usually your craft growers or your really high end THC amounts are going to be top shelf.
