    27: This Episode Hits Different w/ Hype

    Jake Gantz remembers when cultivating cannabis was not so cut and dried, no pun intended. Jake, like our host Mike Lewis, broke into the cannabis space before it had become the $13 billion industry it is today. In this episode, we revisit the days of backyard open blasting and small, caregiver grow ops… and weigh in on the massive changes we’ve experienced since.    Today, Jake is the Lab Director at Hype, and he is pushing to refine the cannabis cultivation process even further. Today, Jake shares some of the best stories - and lessons learned - from a less refined era of cannabis. Highlights include: Is medical marijuana in trouble? Mike and Jake talk about the explosion of rec sales, and what this means for medical cardholders. Cannabis manufacturers aren’t playing with fire (as much) anymore. Jake and Mike revisit the Caregiver Era, and talk about how the industry has improved as it has grown in size and scope. Why are the effects of dabs so different than smoking? Jake breaks down the science behind their unique high.

    26: No Rest for the Planted w/ Afternoon Delite

    Afternoon Delite is the winningest edible brand in Michigan. After 11 High Times Cannabis Cup awards, it’s safe to say that CEO Brian Shariak understands how to create consumables that cut through the noise. Today, he joins Mike to talk about how small businesses are distinguishing themselves in a post-crash cannabis market.   Spoiler: it’s exactly as hard as it sounds, and twice as time-consuming. Brian and his wife have built the Afternoon Delite brand from nothing, and Brian joins us today to talk about how they did it. Highlights include: Brian was lab testing before it was cool (or mandatory). He tells us about his journey, from his first grow to his 11th award, and how he and his wife are succeeding in the industry. Dispensaries are a lot like streaming services: there is an absolutely paralyzing amount of choice. Mike and Brian share insights on how to connect with consumers in an overwhelming market, and talk about what consumers can expect next. On a higher note, Brian shares some of the hilarious “brainstorming” sessions that led to his biggest hits.

    23: Bubble Hash & Breakfast Pre-Rolls w/ Glorious Cannabis

    Welcome back! As the landscape in the cannabis industry continues to shift, many are wondering how far the escalation of high-percentage THC strains will go. Will we continue to see more and more intense, high-potency consumables, or will this trend give way to a more varied approach? Glorious Cannabis is looking to change the conversation around cannabis, according to Territory Sales Manager Scott Donovan and Trade Marketing Manager Katie Naudi. Instead of aiming for high THC-percentage yields, Glorious focuses on finding the right terpenes and flavors to create new categories of weed, like aphrodesiacs and creativity boosters. Is this the way the broader cannabis industry will go, or will we continue to see higher and higher intensity cannabis products? This week, they join Victoria to talk about their shared philosophy behind the cannabis they create, and what we can expect to see next.
