Speaker 1:Okay, black podcast matter. Okay, Also check out gas talk. He's got a podcast.
Speaker 2:Black podcast Never heard that part.
Speaker 1:We ain't your ear, so of course we go start off with some some. This is tea, um. So this first one, I'm really excited because I love her. She's getting her flowers. Brandy is getting her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, which is awesome, just because I mean, she's been entertained with children. It's been a long time since she's seen her flowers.
Speaker 2:Is it gonna say Moeisha on the star? I feel like in quotations it's just like Moeisha, you said it should know.
Speaker 1:It's gonna say Brandy Norwood Like y'all, stop playing.
Speaker 2:Brandy quotations. Moeisha Norwood why not? That's how I knew her Moe to the but I knew her as Cinderella.
Speaker 1:It could be Brandy Cinderella Norwood, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:Like I don't know.
Speaker 1:Don't do that, because Moeisha was older than Cinderella, so stop playing with me, was she?
Speaker 2:Yeah, I was keeping her. I just said.
Speaker 1:I understand, but she was doing Moeisha already and that was part of the reason why she landed the Cinderella Bros.
Speaker 2:You know what we pissed you off? You mean Ray J's sister Leave.
Speaker 1:You mean Ray J's sister? No, ray J's sister, that thing will always be Brandy's brother.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 1:Because, remember, he gets starred on Moeisha like four different character roles before he came on the show as the little brother cut. I'm like that girl.
Speaker 2:That thing always trying to be real For being a mess. You know what his wife looks like. I'm gonna just throw that out there because I noticed that recently Ooh.
Speaker 1:now I can't understand.
Speaker 2:They look just alike. She's just like skin.
Speaker 1:They do look alike.
Speaker 2:They do look like they could be siblings. Brandy's her older brother. I mean Don't do that.
Speaker 1:You know something that we don't, bro she's a drunkenist, bro, don't do my girl, I mean.
Speaker 2:I love Brandy as much as the next person, but I feel like they could have waited.
Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 2:I feel like she's not alive.
Speaker 1:I feel like she's got a lot. It's been a lot of indutisies this year. I'm gonna go against somebody else.
Speaker 2:I feel like she could have waited. How do they? I mean, they just get one of the ludicrous. Do you think she doesn't deserve a star?
Speaker 1:I think not that time. The era of people. I think it's one of those things where, like, maybe people from the 80s was getting they stars Not at all finished, kind of getting they stars. And then not even going to people in the 90s. Remember how we talked about how Tupac just got here and you know, just like some people, dr Dre just got one. Yeah, that's just all I can assume. Maybe they're just moving forward as like you know the games, you know what I'm saying, nah because it wasn't in the 90s, was it?
Speaker 2:No, it was very early 2000s though.
Speaker 1:Like 2000, 2001, 2002. Are you speaking of black?
Speaker 2:folks or white folks, Because I just mean I don't know who and who doesn't know.
Speaker 1:I guess in terms of your relevance to Hollywood.
Speaker 2:I don't mean in the 90s, I'm sure Tom Cruise already had a star.
Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 2:You don't got one.
Speaker 1:I'm sure he has one, but he probably didn't get it till before he went crazy on Oprah when he was dating Katie Holmes.
Speaker 2:That was still 10 something years ago. I'm just. I don't know what people do.
Speaker 1:Shout out to Brandy for getting her star on the Walk of Fame. I don't know how it goes, but I just know who black you got on it.
Speaker 2:I'd be excited. I don't really know Rogue. I want it as far as I know.
Speaker 1:Okay, I ain't mad at you.
Speaker 2:Shout out to the original.
Speaker 1:Honestly, when I see the two pots, I'm just gonna take my picture on it real quick. You both said open on it real quick.
Speaker 2:It's just a nice looking sidewalk. I mean I get it. You like giving them day flowers, but I don't see like, oh, it's a Rogue with that A star.
Speaker 1:I ain't going to do that shit. A star, yeah, because I mean I guess technically one full place bomb it would be one or two. Anyway, Only dark, fast it did, but that's where I stay. Shout out to Moesha Right. Shout out to Moesha Moe to the eat, to the. Okay, we'll be on.
Speaker 2:What's the EBT awards man? Oh.
Speaker 1:God, don't do it, don't do them. It's for the culture, bro.
Speaker 2:Okay, culture is pink is nice. Culture is pink is nice. That's what I said, didn't you?
Speaker 1:I always kind of look a bit of EBT awards though.
Speaker 2:It's like bomb but, get out. Yeah, EBT has never been like the they try.
Speaker 1:The class they try to be classy.
Speaker 2:I mean it's better than the source awards. But the source awards knew what it was. Yeah, Like high and try to be shit.
Speaker 1:They would Didn't even have one award, though?
Speaker 2:Probably, but you remember how you just brought it up. I mean, because you can't have a lot of people with that many beats in one room in the 90s, especially after you hit them up, I want to whip your ass because you better go. Yeah, that's definitely how you beat your ass on, but I mean a lot of good shit happened during the BET awards. In like the early years, I felt like the BET awards used to be real, like you couldn't wait to see it. You longed at somebody's house.
Speaker 1:It was an event.
Speaker 2:My mother in law definitely was like are you watching the BET awards? She's still excited. People be excited.
Speaker 1:I feel like if I remember it, like if it comes to me like in the June, and I'd be like I want it to be a T-Words.
Speaker 2:Come on, if it crossed my mind, then it's still relevant to me.
Speaker 1:I think I'll just be a clip and I'll be like, but also one that doesn't have cable. I'm a white BET. Yeah, we did a free trial thing with something and watched it, streamed it live. I'm not about to sign up for it.
Speaker 2:I definitely cancel it. No, you got to set a reminder. Don't do that. Just cancel it as soon as you sign up for it. That's the best way. You still get like three days, that's when you're gonna get that one week, but it's not that deep. They didn't feel the host this year they didn't, but that's the right of strength.
Speaker 1:Right, so um, it was just Patty LaVelle. Oh, patty LaVelle. Oh my God, that was hilarious. That's why I liked it. It was entertaining.
Speaker 2:Even though it was kind of ratchet, it was entertaining.
Speaker 1:I was entertained. The Migos got back together. I was entertained, Right they had Migos.
Speaker 2:It was a nice Migos tree they said, that wasn't it. I was hyped up because Because takeoff is on.
Speaker 1:We won it, but Patty LaVelle, baby first of all, you signed up to do Tina Turner. That wasn't Patty and you did not know the words. Oh, holiday would have known the words, and holiday would have known to have the track on and lip sync and get it together. They would have thought it was Miss Patty LaVelle. She looked like Holiday Hards.
Speaker 2:But the fact.
Speaker 1:she said I don't know the words, but I thought she was the words, I thought she was having a moment on the stage.
Speaker 2:I didn't know what was going on. I was like, is Miss Patty all right? Because she was every other word I was like, what's up with the words? Miss Clifford is having to be like I can't see the words on the teleprompter and you don't know the song off your own head.
Speaker 1:That's all I'm saying. You don't know the words, it's simply the best. I'm pretty sure they gave you the lyrics, I think that's what people thought. They just assumed that she knew the words.
Speaker 2:But they might not listen to music because that's their job. Weed's my job, but that's different. I like weed, but they might not love music, they just make it because it makes money.
Speaker 1:You could have been like.
Speaker 2:I'll do a song.
Speaker 1:That this is a song, that this is my Tina Jam. And I'm going to be a song, because I know that I can turn this one out. Why do you even do the tribute? Being girl, sit your hands out. Patty wants to be seen. Patty just wants to be seen.
Speaker 2:I think she's one of the last time in five's been good.
Speaker 1:I never had one. Is it good?
Speaker 2:It was fine, but I don't fuck with Patty already Because I feel like she got the beedies when the beedies got her and she's still cooked like how she used to for other people, but eat her own separate shit. And the nerve of it is you still try to give us the beedies and I want what you eat. Get me your gluten free, low calorie ass greens that you about to eat. Don't give me the ones that got you the beedies and you sell them in this shit in stores At the Walmart.
Speaker 1:Fair point I enjoyed Bustin' Rhymes getting his lifetime achievement. That was a better part of this. Bustin' Bust.
Speaker 2:That's all man Okay, because baby, I'm one of the most famous. You quit your job for oh good.
Speaker 1:God, method man, lord Jesus, if he said, quit your job today, and I would be your child. If the name of the beedies Then it'd be like bye it's up, because I spend the rest of my life finding that tree.
Speaker 2:But let me say that about somebody I'd be like. Like who Like who. Like Kelly River Agreed, I'd be her servant. The fuck Agreed Can't kill me normally, or Tina Sumter Agreed.
Speaker 1:Good eye for God, Okay but, you know she ain't to the white boys, of course.
Speaker 2:That's what she bein'. Sonic Good movie, the kids movie yeah, she was in both of them. You haven't seen them. I don't see them, spider-man, you ain't. I don't see them I don't see them.
Speaker 1:Stay away from children's days. We seen the little mermaid. I don't have kids.
Speaker 2:I have nobody to meet or watch the shit. Unless it's a child or anything, we're still children at heart. I watch old shit like Moulin Monsters Inc. The classic shit but you not keep.
Speaker 1:They got some good shit. It's video, some good movies. It's a live. I'd be into it One.
Speaker 2:Pixar, i'ma just I'm not like Pixar. Like all Pixar films are fire Elemental. I think it just came out. You seen it already. Nah, I wanna go see it. I should've go see it.
Speaker 1:I do wanna go see it.
Speaker 2:I'm gonna see it tomorrow.
Speaker 1:5 o'clock, tuesdays. I can imagine Yo, I'm gonna go do my own thing. Mmm, mmm, let's all come with a child.
Speaker 2:I'm watching all the kids I'll be at the other feed too. I'm afraid being scared.
Speaker 1:Well, shout out to BTWords. I thought it was entertaining, I enjoyed myself. Night the culture is biggest night. I enjoyed it. And again, shout out to Buster Rimes because he really, I really thought it was beautiful that he said that he wanted to show emotion and he showed emotion and then gave a real word about hip hop and the culture and the culture. I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 2:He got on like the. He basically was like. You know, it's the old jeans they supposed to give the jewels to the young men. They not doing that. I'm like thank you. Thank you because that's real, because these guys are out here lost in the songs. Yeah, they're out here, fucked up.
Speaker 1:Okay, you got niggas like digging your rig or what, which way is up? And you got people turning their head like, oh, let me just get a bag we talking. Oh, I'm just about to. Like literally like why aren't you putting little niggas onto like?
Speaker 2:Everybody's not a mentor.
Speaker 1:This is true. That's the truth.
Speaker 2:Because you don't want bodies, niggas, mentors and the young niggas. Somebody has to.
Speaker 1:I mean, but they picked one or two at least. Yeah, they didn't kill them they didn't hook you, man.
Speaker 2:But then they fucked around and get killed because they still in the streets doing dumps here to try and chop around.
Speaker 1:I mean, you gotta find the one. But that's also where mentorship at the local level kicks in, because the OGs and the old heads at the local level could still be kicking knowledge in young games to these young brothers.
Speaker 2:But I say they do, at least in Detroit, where they try.
Speaker 1:I feel like, yes, I do see that in Detroit, like when people try. But then also the young heads got to be open to listening, you got to be open to correction, you got to be open to what is actually Jim's.
Speaker 2:Sometimes you're going to get a little liquor laced sermon, but it's going to be some Jim's in there, it's going to be some Jim's in there.
Speaker 1:You need to be able to sift through it, through the OE, to get to his. That's being said Because it really do. They know some stuff out here. It's dudes out here that know some stuff and they.
Speaker 2:They not even know some stuff. They just been through life. They really need experience because I bet you if 20 year old Alyssa could talk to you now, you'd at least kick her some shit. You don't even know shit in 20 years. If you could talk to you now, you'd see like damn, you grew up. It's still time, but Niggas not at least putting it in their ear. You need this, bro. It's a couple, new Erie, detroit. They definitely be looking out for folks. There's people like dang dang.
Speaker 2:I feel like you'd be looking out for folks, but other than that it's not a lot. They're not putting their shit on the line to help out the next generation, but that's the same old story for generation to generation Niggas get the bag and get off the way.
Speaker 1:Okay, really, niggas should get the bag at Bios and Block and make it short. Niggas ain't got. You don't have to be selling drugs, because you're worried about your mom losing your spouse, because X, y, z you know what I'm saying but because if you buy the black and you make it so that people can live comfortably, then you can live without having to worry about surviving all the time.
Speaker 2:I would like, at least for the new generation, I would like. Lil Baby was a great example of like a nigga who was in the streets actively and then got in the game and then got he still, I'm glad that you. Like you, far removed from the shit that you used to do, but you got Niggas who still want to be so street creative. You got the job for that. Like you, literally lost the bag. You tried to lose the bag multiple times until they was like yeah, you can't Go overseas and take shit Okay.
Speaker 2:That's your next best move, go, make some euro Go to the White House Like yeah, taiwan, taiwan, having a blast.
Speaker 1:Okay, living the best life I used to like. Go out at these like.
Speaker 2:I did too, but he's a shitty father. Oh yeah, really that make me laugh.
Speaker 1:He had been on Royce from the first season. She's fucking crazy. I like it.
Speaker 2:I hate it. Royce, she's so crazy. No, like he has other children and doesn't like neglect hers.
Speaker 1:Cause theirs was kind of like a. I guess she was just kind of like a jumbo off time.
Speaker 2:Yeah, like they wasn't like a serious thing. That's his actual baby. Yes, the nigga look like him to me, been tested and everything.
Speaker 1:I think my ass kind of fucked up and that's bad. Look, that kind of shit made me look at Bryan and Nightingale. So if you're not a bad father, that's just a.
Speaker 2:Was that the nigga that was beating people in all the 90s movies? Yeah, that nigga that looked like Bryan and Nightingale and all the Blair Underwoods Blair.
Speaker 1:Underwoods, Not not.
Speaker 2:You already know that You're just talking about you know what to play with some crazy ass roles. You know what to play with some crazy ass roles Like. You're one of the niggas that I probably wouldn't like in real life. Yeah, I'm trying to be more honest, bro, you're gonna try to choke me up when we go.
Speaker 1:That's kind of how I feel about Michael Ely, because he be playing that crazy to Will and I'm gonna get a real light stand man with light eyes. He's got the crazy.
Speaker 2:He do the crazy. He got it mixed because light skin niggas don't get eyes like that, so therefore that's not true?
Speaker 1:Tarrin's Howard ain't mixed and he got light eyes. They're hazel, they're like green. So I mean, I never see that as a color.
Speaker 2:Why are you just calling out all potentially crazy light skin dudes?
Speaker 1:Because that's the trait of them. They have a huge, probably crazy. They're gonna be attacked.
Speaker 2:You got to be more like the more pressurizing than the rest of us, you got to have the darkest shit, I hope you don't have them.
Speaker 1:It's the sit-stood man, but anyway, moving on, because I was entertained, I enjoyed BET Awards, even if it's just something to give you something to talk about and laugh about.
Speaker 2:I mean there's nothing I ever look up to for the BET Awards. So I mean they didn't have a bar set for them to read.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so it just is what it is, culture's biggest night I'm at Because I know the culture of vultures were tuned in with their notebook and pen.
Speaker 1:Like, oh, this is what they're wearing, this is how they're speaking, this is the turn, this is the pen, this is what's hot in the street. So, yeah, moving on to, I guess, another facet of culture. We got Hellman's Mayo versus Miracle Whip, elon Musk versus Mark Zuckerberg. I guess they're gonna be having an actual MMA battle in a Roman Coliseum, which, if that doesn't scream raging white billionaire, I don't know what does. It's gonna be like that. Personally, I don't know that I care to see this little struggle fighting the dust. I don't know that it's gonna be any good. I feel like it's just gonna be a little flabbing around and everybody's gonna get knocked out or get one of those lay on the ground type. I don't know, they both seem like some cool ass things.
Speaker 2:This is some 50 shades of gray times, 50 types. They have the money, they probably training, they got the best trainer. They out in the desert on some of the end-degree three when he gotta go re-up for the last fight Because he already got it at, because they reputations on one. I'm never having a rematch. If I win, I'm gonna be trying to fight you again One and done. Why would I do it? I fucked up.
Speaker 1:no, I yeah, I just personally. It's just like I said, the whole thing screams white billionaire and it's kind of annoying. So it's just kind of like why should people even pay to see you two slap each other around and what will probably be a fixed fight anyway?
Speaker 2:You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:Like I just I you know what I'm saying. It's just kind of like hey y'all, good luck with that. I'll wait for the memes and the clips and the gifts.
Speaker 2:It's gotta be free on Facebook, that'd be lit.
Speaker 1:You'd rather fight the pay for?
Speaker 2:it. Like only if you got your PR headset.
Speaker 1:you can experience it right from this. You'll need it. That shit is lame, I know.
Speaker 2:I feel like it's definitely what the world is turning into Okay, like, there you go. I'm a broke out winner with no words.
Speaker 1:I'm one of my favorite anime. Okay, that's a good ass movie. Picks are got a way of emoting emotion through their animated film.
Speaker 2:Do you ever see Inside?
Speaker 1:Out. Oh, that's one of my favorites. That's one of my favorites. It came out like two years ago, two years ago.
Speaker 2:I hate you with that. The last probably Pixar movie I went to go see and was thrilled to see was Toy Story 3.
Speaker 1:Or was that the one? No, I was like 18 years when I was being out.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that was the last Pixar movie I probably went to go see and was like because it was Toy Story and the Star Trek.
Speaker 1:So you ever see Toy Story 4?
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:I really did.
Speaker 2:I thought you thought about that three. Like I see the whole thing.
Speaker 1:I'm not even sure. Well.
Speaker 2:I don't know.
Speaker 1:I say you don't even know.
Speaker 2:Toy Story 4, nigga, when I did I know it was a 4, I might give it a stand on the board.
Speaker 1:I'm sure, because it made me go back and watch the first one. It made me go back and watch the first one and it's some very full circle moments. It's not a very full circle moment, it's not a Toy Story, so I enjoyed it. So have you watched Lightyear?
Speaker 2:No, he does a series.
Speaker 1:I wanted to. I'm like, oh, he got his own little series. It was really good and it shows some queer love in there. That was a good one, I enjoyed it. And our girl, kiki Palmer, is in it. She's a little girl. Yeah, it was real good, though I'm ground support. Shout out to Kiki. Shout out to Kiki. I know that was her. I'm in. I'm definitely a some of you can classify as a cinephile. I am in it. I'm in the movies. I know the details.
Speaker 2:I know the bloopers? Did you know that a solo solo is originally supposed to be cast?
Speaker 1:Okay, I'm, in that thing, a cinephile. I just got a new one.
Speaker 2:Okay, it's a human dictionary.
Speaker 1:Okay, that's what you used to call me in high school Dictionary. It was that. Or they used to call me vitamins Because, um, it was really in a night brain I used to always have a vitamin water. He was like you should drink that vitamin water. And then this one boy was like don't she look like she's taking vitamins?
Speaker 2:I'm like, hey, then that was where it came from and then they keep a good use of vitamin water and it's like, oh wait, it's interesting yeah.
Speaker 1:So that was a funny one too, but uh, let's get into our topic for the day. It's nice and chunky.
Speaker 2:I don't know. I'm afraid someone want to shout.
Speaker 1:That's why you're here Our topic of the day is cannabis. A lot of new things that gaja, that date, that sasa.
Speaker 2:The devil's dragon.
Speaker 1:The devil's list, the devil's dragon.
Speaker 2:The devil's dragon. That's probably a meme of fucking. That's gonna be the strain.
Speaker 1:The devil's dragon Straight fire, right If y'all, if y'all. If somebody grow that strain you gotta pay us. You gotta pay Jay like specifically devil's dragon.
Speaker 2:I should have gotten an advertisement. I'm good with that. Okay, like literally Monday. Jamie Foxx.
Speaker 1:Roaches, I don't know what you're saying. I don't know what you're saying.
Speaker 2:Y'all said we were shit, I don't know what y'all. What's up with the weed, what y'all talking about with the cannabis? Okay, so when was everybody's first like introduction? Like when did you first, like the very first time? How were you when you first started smoking? I was a late bloomer, for real. I'll be 30, shit in a month. 30 gay, I'm not 30 yet you need 30, saying it, don't say 30 is lit.
Speaker 1:You see I'm blowing over here, pow, pow, pow pow. I'm like white right on you. But no, I was um.
Speaker 2:I was the day I graduated high school I had a room and I was drinking and smoking. So I didn't really know if I was high or drunk. I was like I was done Early early in the night. But then I really started smoking in college, probably like most other people, like after you move out and shit, get away from people. And then I just fell in love with it. I figured it was lit, like it helped me feel better. I felt like I was nicer. I still got shit done. I'm not just stuck in the mud, even if it's like some heavy gas, so I don't know. I just I like weed. I feel like I started later than most, so like I really started smoking I was like 20. That's when I feel like I started smoking.
Speaker 1:I was 15. First time I tried it, 14 or 15. It was summer after eighth grade, so 14., 14. I was 14.
Speaker 2:That sounds like way 15. No, yeah, so 14.
Speaker 1:I was 14. My bad. So summer after eighth grade, I remember we was at one of my friend's house, like it was her house that they grew up in, but like they had moved to Pontiac but they still had the house and it was just kind of like there. And you know, so they had like a couch on the TV. It was kind of like a trap, but not really. It was a little nicer because it was actually somebody who used to actually live here. We used to just hang out and it was cool.
Speaker 1:And I remember, you know, going over there me and just really excited to go because we had moved by then. So you know, don't get to see them, they ain't not next door anymore. And they're like oh yeah, we got the smoke. Oh, whoa, what is this? And I remember hitting the blunt. It's mine, it was like 12 of us and like maybe two or three blunt. So like whatever you hit it, and I'm like this is so.
Speaker 1:And I remember calling my little girlfriend's like y'all, I try to eat today. I don't think I'm going to ever do that. She can't. It was so terrible, like it just hit the way, the back of my foot. It's just horrible I'm never going to do this. I don't even understand why I remember like really a half hour phone call that we just on there. I'm just talking about how I never do this again. Right Flash forward to, I want to say Thanksgiving, my senior year. I was 17. And I was my sister, her best friend, our cousin, and we went and we got some weed. I was high as fuck. I was laughing so hard for so long Like my stomach literally started turning into tears because my stomach hurt so bad, I'm just like my stomach.
Speaker 1:I want to stop laughing. Y'all just laughing and I'm in pain over here. And I remember we would go see one of the Twilight movies and I was still just laughing through the whole movie, like I was high as fuck. Okay, and that's. That was when I fell in love With the kind of this 14. 17.
Speaker 2:17. Yeah, I was like I was 15 on the very first time I tried it. It was like a little after school house party type thing and they were passing around. I'm like obviously I don't want to seem like it's not the coolest thing.
Speaker 1:So I don't know what the fuck I'm doing.
Speaker 2:I'm like, okay, I hit it. I didn't know how to inhale, so like I would always get it trapped in my mouth but couldn't get it like to inhale. So I'm like when we just hold it in our mouth just like here. I'm like, and every time after that I just didn't know how to inhale. So over years I just was like, maybe it's not my thing.
Speaker 1:I don't know how to do it Every time y'all pass me.
Speaker 2:I don't know what the fuck I'm doing. Like I get contact high because I will be hot boxing or some shit. But then I probably think when I was like maybe 19, 20. No, I was smoking in my first apartment, so I'm gonna say about 20. I just I caught on to it, like I tried it again and then I learned how to inhale, and then that's what they tell me After that. That was all she wrote. And then I just, and then once the pandemic hit, I don't like do it on and off and then, once the pandemic hit, I was in the house. I'm like what do I have? Nothing to do. But I guess I was like I learned how to roll. I learned how to use, learn how to roll, learn how to smoke and then on, you talked about yourself how to roll Did you start off with leaves or did you try to start off with leaves, because that's why anybody rolled.
Speaker 2:That was that I was around.
Speaker 1:So I'm like, okay, it's a cultural thing. Yeah, because I mean I'm telling my age, but I started off with like swishers, white owls and duchies.
Speaker 2:I started off with duchies first, and then duchies came back. We talked about it later. Now I'm talking about 2012 like swishers.
Speaker 1:That tried to confuse you. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it was coming out with all the flavor Like you were wearing your arms. Yeah, like it was real bad.
Speaker 2:You progressively graduated and started getting better Bugs and bows. Yeah, once I found out about bonds I couldn't make it. I had one for a minute. It was so big, so nice, but then I left it.
Speaker 1:You left you. The best ball guy I ever hit was I was out at Western at a party and somebody had a ball and it was like it looked like it was five beer mugs stacked on top of each other. Thank you. That bitch was biggest fuck and when I hit that thing one time for the one time I had to sit to be fucked down. I'm like whoa Could have just had a GoPro on me at that moment, because I was just like check out, like so, dr, have a moment.
Speaker 2:You guys remember at times when I was just high as hell, just like you knew you was high. You was like, okay, I was in Atlanta but my friend part like my friend was his birthday so I went down there to go see him and say hi to him. So it was one, two, three. It was four of us. You know, it was four of us. We in the kitchen, we all rolled up a blunt and so it was like I wasn't gonna smoke before we go something fucking where.
Speaker 2:So I'm smoking, but I'm not realizing that everybody lit their blunt already. So like we're literally passing these around and I'm not realizing that's what's happening. I'm just smoking because we're talking, engaging, doing what they're fucking doing. So at one point I'm like damn, people are sweet as fuck. I just get higher and higher. I'm just like damn Shit, I'm just smoking. I'm smoking and I don't realize. I'm like wait, everybody lit people.
Speaker 1:We been smoking all four months. I'm all fired. All right, I'm gonna have to tap out the power of the tap out.
Speaker 2:We been smoking all four months and I'm just like, oh my God. And I remember standing there. I'm just like I've never been this fucking high in my life. I had to go a lot of fuck down. I'm like did you make it out to the festivities? We went to the fucking mall some high shit. Didn't nobody want to buy shit? This mall was like 30 minutes away, we just walking around. I'm high as hell, like I don't even know.
Speaker 1:I'm like it was an out of body experience.
Speaker 2:I'm just like I don't have my ear. It just was weird. It was a weird ass experience and I don't recommend it. You was there when you wasn't there.
Speaker 1:No, I had tapped out, I was clocked out.
Speaker 2:I don't know what the fuck is going on, because it was out of vibrate and shit. It was a lot going on. I got laid down like Lord. You always have to talk to God. I'm just like, whatever you can do and offer any type of solace in this moment, I mean jeez, because I don't think I'm going to make it OK, you got one For me. I got like three, I got a bunch. I got a bunch. One I could think of was my 21st birthday. I wanted to go see Jeezie and Wiz.
Speaker 2:Oh, that was probably 10 years ago Wiz was so blow that he was just standing there holding the mic like this. But anyway, about me, not young. We had got, like I think I wrote up like 21 blunts or something for the concert, got them all in there. This is back when it wasn't legal. Legal, you couldn't really just take it in. Now they don't care, so I get in there, we on the lawn.
Speaker 1:It's the bed.
Speaker 2:BTE. It was BTE, I think. My sister went to that concert, my little sister. It was like it was lit ass concert. It was somebody who's somewhat big now and it was like YG, jeezie, somebody else and Wiz, and it was lit ass concert. Great 21st. Try to go to the casino. Spucked up, my idea expired that day so they wouldn't let me in, so I'm like fuck, I'm going back to the house.
Speaker 1:Going into man.
Speaker 2:I'm like dog, it's my birthday. You know that I don't say I'm still, I'm suited. I don't know how I drove from BTE to downtown. Hell yeah, I fall asleep at a real light, my teeth, oh my God I don't know how long I was there, like at least it was like late at night. So we're like no, nobody behind you.
Speaker 2:But then I'm on the way driving, fall asleep, driving I was like I'm fucked up, like I'm like I should have just stopped somewhere. Like I was like stupid, like that's probably like one of the one times I probably should have stopped smoking a while ago, but I smoked all 21. And I was like 21 for 21. It happens. So no, your limits for sure. No, your limits for you. Smoke responsibly.
Speaker 1:Oh, I remember my first, my very first one, where I was like I am too hot for this. So high school, it's my senior year, it's my senior year and one of my homeboys that we used to always fall asleep and we used to have a lot of the same class together. We would always fall asleep in the same class and kind of wake up and be like, yeah, you're right, you sleep too. But he was like, listen, he was like I got some weed. He was like you want a bag? He's like I need to use. Like you know, I'm going to like $5 for whatever it was shaped. I was like fuck it whatever. But it was like a quarter right. So I'm like, well, damn, shit, ok, shit, ok, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit.
Speaker 1:Then you go nigga, what's up, ok, like I feel better. Yeah, ok, like, because you show love, like so get it. And I'm excited. I tell my whole girl girl, I got some weed. I got some weed. Doodle, doodle, doodle, ah. So I'm 18 by then, so I could go buy a leaf or whatever and let me get sprinkles. Could you really? I could, yeah.
Speaker 2:I was 18. You could be 18. Now I was 21. That's great.
Speaker 1:So I go and I'm like, yeah, we don't have to go to the woods in the city, because gas stations in Southview would always still kind of be like mm, mm, mm. And I was like, no, fuck you, I need to eat. That's it. So we go, we roll up, we pull up at like a little apartment complex. That's who we used to do. We just pull up at a random apartment complex and just pull in a parking spot in the streets.
Speaker 2:You got the smoking piece and a house and shit.
Speaker 1:It's nice. Oh no, this was back in the days we were stung. You were in the car in the middle of the town.
Speaker 2:Yes, Make a light.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that'd be a slight. Ok. The shrubs the trenches.
Speaker 2:That's the trenches.
Speaker 1:You all know that one.
Speaker 2:I was like, yeah, we started smoking even back then I was stung into my room. I mean I don't try to hide it.
Speaker 1:But then I can't hide it.
Speaker 2:I mean, I don't like it People just cool they ain't coming in like what the fuck. That is a blessing. They never just kick you in the door like what the fuck. It's always like I'm a smoked Because you tried to hide it from me for a while. I was just like oh, they always do. I'm like I ain't hiding it from my kids. Yeah, we used to be in places, but so anyway so she caught our Tweezy there smoking.
Speaker 1:We like ah, we had his hair. We're like ah. And she's like ah, I'm dropping off. I'm like ah, I'm laughing. So OK, here we go, freeway. And my mama called and I was like hey, listen, I got off work early. I was able to get your airplane room pushed up. You can just meet me at Northland, you know if you're still out and about.
Speaker 1:And I was like hey, find you, we like right across the street from Northland, oh. I'm like, oh my god, oh my god, what's she like? I'm like girl, put her on the ground. She's like what's going on? The girl, my mama. She's like she's saying she got a drug here, you got drug here from Northland. She's like, oh my god, what's?

We walking, mind you, just a while. I got to be guys glass wall so you can see right in this line and my salon lady, hers, is right there at the thing. So I woke up, see her at the thing and I just say, hey, see how my bitch, just get in the chair like hey, the way through the glass, just sit out on the bench. And we just sit on the bench, like right outside the salon, like look at how it's hell, like she's really out of flow. I don't think she did. I really don't think she did. So if you listen to this story, I'm so sorry, but I was like hey, I was like trying to read a magazine, like trying to be chill about it. I'm like fucking shaking.
Speaker 2:Like vibrate.
Speaker 1:I'm too high for this. Oh shit, trying to turn the page on the same page for like two minutes, like Fuck. That I was like hey, I also think I came down, but that's how we were, like leaving the salon with like baby.
Speaker 2:So back in the day you feel like we was better, like just for like the relation, like he was actually like below.
Speaker 1:Yeah, because at one time, oh man, me and that same homegirl we had this weed man and he was all a mile a huggle and we used to go and he was like we bust on for him. He was like y'all this, that limit, kush, this, that shit, gucci, be smoking on y'all, but careful with it. And we like, yeah, ok, whatever, ok, we like to build this shit down. This shit's so good, we pull up at her boyfriend house. We were all about three months of that shit. We all smoke it back Back Like y'all. I was fried. I went on a 20 minute rant and I ain't even like ended up crying, talking about people stealing lighters and shit. I'm like this is so cool Because I had a Maryland lighter. Now somebody really got down on me.
Speaker 1:They really got down on me Like going in and we like come on, he's fucking hot. So he like oh, we got some pasta salad upstairs.
Speaker 2:Oh, it's pasta salad we like hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey hey, hey, go see, it's a pasta salad.
Speaker 1:So now we like smashing these bowls of pasta salad. We're like, we're like fooling. And then Tim and his later like it's hot as hell, y'all ain't hot, y'all ain't hot. She like, yeah, it's hot, I'm hot too. What the fuck? It's hot we. It's hot as fuck. My name is Squat, sat, it's Squat, and mine too is July. We go outside. It's just as hot outside as it is inside, and we outside I'm like it's hot, it's dry, it's hot as fuck.
Speaker 1:Oh God, oh Lord, and I'm like, and I don't know if it was the weed or the pasta salad, but I end up like like she was like don't do that, I'm like what. And we just like a fucking cartoon like back and forth at least two or three times and like this car robot like, oh OK, handle that, look out the hide mate. And this is like you don't even know.
Speaker 2:It's a long and short of a friend. It's a pasta salad. We're going to put it on the pasta salad.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I do not know how we even got home that night, because I remember she ended up getting like a crazy. Somebody called her with a crazy drama or something that night and I was just like what? I don't even know what's happening, please just get me out. I was like get in the house, like oh shit, I'm like stumbling to my room, like, oh God, please, let me just get to the bed, let me please just make it to the night. I was high as hell.
Speaker 2:It could have been a food plush.
Speaker 1:I didn't bring good at. But I was still fried after I threw up and I was like baby With me and Sikker, how is that?
Speaker 2:It is not. It don't work Like when you stuff in shit Because I smoked through colds and through COVID. I was when I, even when I caught COVID through one of these times, I was like you felt like you was wasting me One batch and I felt I was still getting out In my mind. You know, I live in a sense of delusion.
Speaker 2:I talk about this all the time I felt in my mind I made up, the weed is going to help. It does for me. So I was like, if you eat it, the smoke in that shit ain't going to burn, to put you.
Speaker 2:In my mind I was like this is going to help me. It's herbs. It's special herbs For me. I still feel high, Except with the elderberry. I don't do that. Oh man, I'm straight, I'll be fine, I'm good. I still feel fine Like I go in there and smoke. Now, when you stuff in sneezing and shit, you might as well. It don't feel good because they feel like the symptoms are like magnified, like you feel the sore throat, you feel the shit and you get to walk and shit up.
Speaker 1:No, For me that's what it do, Because it's like when I'm smoking, it's going to make me cough the shit up. And so I'm coughing the shit up and I'm spitting it out and I'm like ugh and I feel better. That's for me, that's for me. Look, I ain't no doctor, shit, don't take this as my fucking medical advice, because I don't fucking know, but that's what I do.
Speaker 2:But this is also like but that's just for like stuffiness and shit, like it's for me. Because the dry problem, that dryness kicking in it's for me it don't work Like that shit just be like all right. You make it worse.
Speaker 2:Now you got to hit it Now you really can't breathe out your fucking nose. You probably could, but fuck with now your shit dry. You like what the fuck Now that one nostril stopped to fuck up and you sniffing everything up through the other one. So yeah, being sick is a big issue. It is. Why ain't white people for that too? I feel like they develop sick. They are the reason for sickness, for sickness. They bring their shit over here, and then we got to deal with the shit.
Speaker 1:They ain't got any lines of shit like that. I ain't no scientist.
Speaker 2:Why ain't we brought any lines over here? We didn't have that shit. They brought that shit from Europe. Interesting, speaking of white people, that was the second time I got high. I was at the very first dispensary I worked at. We had, like this work career, micro-rebuilding, team building but it was basically a party, all the coworkers. So I'm thinking like I'm black. So I'm thinking like you know, you bring your own weed. We're all going to bring our own weed. We're all going to make you know, do the bad things. That's what I'm saying. I didn't come to weed. I had thoughts upon my weed man when I got there. He was on bullshit the whole time. I was pissed off. I've been here 10 minutes, bro.
Speaker 2:But as I'm realizing everybody getting there and I'm just noticing, like it's free rose, it's just weed everywhere. I'm like I don't think they have the green shit. So I'm like, well, boy, fuck you, do what the fuck you got to do with your bitch ass. I'm going to get on y'all in a minute because weed man no weed man.
Speaker 2:I got so fucking hot at that party Because I'm thinking I've never smoked a white crew before. It was your first industry. And so we smoking. They pull out the little no gravity bond and shit. People pull out capsules that they made at their house Edibles, all type dabs and shit. I'm like, oh, you got to know yourself, I didn't know. I'm like dude, all of this. I'm like, ok, I'll just smoke my little weed right here, but OK, I'm going to get. I tried everything. I'm like I took a couple capsules, took some edibles.
Speaker 1:I dabbed.
Speaker 2:I did the little no gravity bond shit and smoked my own little weed that I did kind of drug, smoked that they ass and shit around you just fucked up At a point in a party. I'm just sitting there watching everybody. I'm just like why not? Why is that? Because some capsules kicked it? All that shit come on. I know you can be on top of that.
Speaker 1:I'm just sitting there with the stupid face.
Speaker 2:I ain't no fucking mixer Look you're crazy.
Speaker 1:It's time to see how your hand got high.
Speaker 2:But it was a nice experience though, because they was all cool. It felt like a movie? No, it probably was.
Speaker 1:They felt like a little movie.
Speaker 2:They felt all the breakfast clubs or something that's cute. I like different, they do. They get into it. Ok, that's fun. I feel like.
Speaker 1:I don't know. I was warned when I hit a vape and I hit it like a blunt and I was like I want to die, I want to like. No, it was no, no, no, no. It was that thing how people be dabbing, but it's like a it's kind of something like that, but a real.
Speaker 2:Real, yeah, george, and shit, yeah, money did a real dab.
Speaker 1:Doing a dab? You do it? No, but I was like I felt my lungs constraint the fuck. I felt like that was sort of spud. But I was saying these lungs was like eat and they showed up to them little things and one cracked off. That's how I felt. I was like somebody's gonna eat some more.
Speaker 2:I think that's your hardest. Like my very first time I did it, I was like, yeah, nobody ever tells you how to really hit your first dab. They always go. Oh, you're like five tickets. They like what? Five 10 seconds. I'm fucked up, fucking pass out. Oh OK, try to get us my lungs, you got to ease dabs to black folks like ease up on it, because that shit's not. It's not every day. Go smoke a blind. And it's funny because white folks don't like smoke a blind, they'll smoke your first one with you.
Speaker 2:But like say, if somebody was here, it was a session, they'd had their papers and shit. They'd hit the first couple, got a whole lot of water and it was a no-strike.
Speaker 1:Now some do some do know, some don't do.
Speaker 2:But it's just, I feel like it's a cultural difference, but they be getting high. They be getting high. I feel like a little too high. Yeah, that's how they get, because it's never enough. And that's how they get on the methadone. Oh, ok, right, because I don't never.
Speaker 1:that's the beautiful thing about weed there's so many different strains and ways that you can smoke it and consume it. That's why I've never wanted to venture to anything else.
Speaker 2:And I know that people. It's definitely not a gateway, and you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:You know they try to make it seem like it's a gateway drug and it's oh, you do this and you're going to do a big thing.
Speaker 2:You're a techs to do it. You know what.
Speaker 1:I'm saying that's not true because I've been substantially higher on some strains of weed than I have on others and it don't ever make me want to be like, oh you know what? Oh crack, Let me see that crack. Let me go get some cocaine, Let me get that, you know what. I'm saying and I'm like no, it don't ever make me want to like because I mean, and I ain't trying to do what you do- but you don't keep your thing in check.
Speaker 1:You can't just be out here. It's one thing to be doing the things, but it's another thing to be a slave to your addiction. There you go, I mean.
Speaker 2:And yeah you said, let's talk about the weed man, but the weed man versus well, the plug versus the sponsors, like now or then. Because I hate you niggas, I'm just going to stand out there. I can't stand them. I've never met more niggas entitled Weed man. Get on my nerves because, one, the nerve of you to have a second job on top of selling weed. This should be your only source of income. Second, get on my own.
Speaker 1:Trini bag get on eight niggas.
Speaker 2:I don't want you to have another job because I need this eighth right now, Not in two hours when you get the fuck off work. If you want the plug, plug. You just got a guy, you got you. You sound like you talking about a guy, but then the ones I feel like they come in five minutes. That weed be trashed Because you all it's a turn over.
Speaker 1:You just always sell it.
Speaker 2:I don't want you to come. Get at least a zip, not a court. He wants to zip up. Where is that eighth? Maybe you? Did start going Nowadays, nowadays, if you're not getting a zip from a plug. He'd go to the dispenser. That's what you do. That's what you do Because this is your job.
Speaker 1:And you don't do it right. I miss the days.
Speaker 2:I know that I'm like oh, it's worth it. You never know till you smoke it. That's the thing I don't like about the new. This, too, is always a gamble. You would like oh, this is fire. I'm a see, it's a gamble.
Speaker 1:Then I smoke it. It's a little bit more trustworthy.
Speaker 2:If you know what you're doing, you just go in there and blow it.
Speaker 1:A lot of people don't know what it's going to be, especially with the look for it. They'll trust you.
Speaker 2:Not knowing shit, ass but, and then they fuck around against your booth and then they be mad at the but and the dispensary. But if you know the plug you also feel good. The plug is always good to have. I have been my weed man and probably since I started working at the Swing and Sweets now three years ago. The baby's fucked. I don't like to put up with your shit. What did I mean? You talk about turning around and it's right there. So what's the point?
Speaker 2:I don't know, I don't do niggas no more, I don't know.
Speaker 1:I've had pleasant experiences with weed man. It's probably just because I'm a woman, I don't know, but like it's I, it niggas used to show love. They say thank you. Niggas used to pull up, appreciate it. They used to really stop at gas station for you. So we switch over and I take it out of the money Give me together Like it used to be a beautiful, wonderful time. Yes, customer service. Like I probably didn't know what weed man Niggas pull up Like coming to the driveway and he's like oh, thank you so much. Thank you, oh, and it's a loud, stank ass shit and maybe I was paying $60 for it. Back then it was like but it was some loud ass shit. It was some shit Like you know, some shit that you only need half of the easy it is to smoke and just be able to put it out and go back to the way Like.
Speaker 1:I feel like cannabis would be better. Yeah, back then. But you're talking about now. Yeah, but now I feel like okay. So now I have found some strange too specifically that I can be like if I find it somewhere, I'm a buy it. The devil's candy, that one is fire and that, mama J, is Jurassic Kush I T God like I. Both of those. I was like, no it's, they didn't have either one of those and I've been looking for them for months for the Jurassic Kush and I haven't found it. And the devil's candy I haven't found it for a couple of weeks now. So we look, I'm looking, but it's it's hard to find. Like that's how I feel.
Speaker 1:Like blue dream just came back around now and that was something that was very hot when I was a kid and it was a good weed. It was like really good and it's still. It's still good, but it just it hit different now I feel like it, don't. It don't hit the same in my opinion. So, but the wee band, he was always cool, Like I had five on the ground, we man, but it was a loud ass shit. And then we just like, okay, well, here you can back this up for me and then you can take a. It's like thank you and like okay.
Speaker 1:I do this Like or I didn't have we man, where it's just like some absolute garbage. And then you be like, oh, but this is. And they be like, well, okay, well, I got this, I've exchanged it. You know, I haven't had it. I've made exchanges before, like it's been, it's been all type of stuff where it's just like, okay, well, can I get this? Is this? That that allowed? Like, how about? Okay, well, you go do it this, give me four grams of 40. How about that? Like it's not gonna work, like you know what I'm saying, like working out a little different stuff, and I feel like I mean, yeah, I mean I know, but it's still, you know, just different stuff that I could appreciate the way you, man, keep on trucking, but don't stop lying about the time that you're gonna be there, literally.
Speaker 1:don't tell me 30 minutes and it's three hours, okay, oh, and one time, oh, this one time this man he triggered, he was terrible because he sold me an ounce right, and I was like bet, I got me a little ounce. I got a little for a minute. No, it was, it was for good practice, it was shake, I mean, it was like $100 to shape, but it was really good. We saw him like okay, whatever. And then by the time I ran out and I was getting off work and I called him like a kind of around the time, like I would normally would have called him. It was like maybe quarter to two, something like that, and and he like, and he answered I'm like okay, well, whatever, go, but be a wake up.
Speaker 1:He takes me like don't be calling me Um, uh to a, and you I ain't heard from you in weeks. Uh, don't be calling me at two AM. We ain't, nobody answered. We don't, do we not? And I'm like what? Like literally, and it's just like you know what's funny? Like I've been smoking your weed for this last three weeks. That's why I didn't need it to call you like you, stupid ass nigga. And I was like bet, you won't ever have to worry about that again. I'm just one of the emotional guys Like that's funny, that's a crazy.
Speaker 2:I mean personally. I prefer dispensing weed Um, you don't have to go through the bullshit. You know it is, and it's just a gamble with the weed too. It's like I rather be. I rather come from you than a drone.
Speaker 1:Hey, don't use the wrong my daddy might have.
Speaker 2:Then I feel like street weed, like once I started smoking I felt, like once I was able to tell the difference of the high. I feel like street weed only gave me like a buzz, like a headache, like I would smoke and I would have to smoke a lot of it to even feel like I remember how I had a fucking headache, and like I'm dry too and I only smoke. Put your arms up, you. Okay, I'm not a child.
Speaker 1:Hey, you gotta open up that chest cavity, don't play with it Like okay, um, how did you come to know? Like all the stuff that you know about weed? I feel like you're one of the most like knowledgeable people about cannabis that I've met Cannabis connoisseur, if you will Smoking, smoking a push.
Speaker 2:Oh, thank you. Oh shit, smoking and smoking. Like I wish we probably smoked every day for like the last, like no break, like I've just been weed around somehow every day.
Speaker 1:Same. I could identify with that.
Speaker 2:You somehow find a way to get it. But eventually it turned into like I wasn't looking for it. It kind of just like came to me, and then you always want to figure out what something really is, what you really like.
Speaker 2:Like I really just like weed, like I like the way it feels it helps my body, like I feel like I'm a better person Sometimes it brings people together and shit like that. So then just with all of that it's like, oh, I met other people that really knew what they was talking about, pick their brain, and then just I'm like weed so I might hook with it and then I might as well, if I like it that much, try to make it like my job somehow. So I kind of got how I feel I could identify with that. I think that's how I got into dispensary.
Speaker 2:But I was just smoking so much and I was like actively trying to get out of serving and getting something different. I'm like, well, what should I do? And I'm like, well, dispensaries are becoming a thing now, maybe I should work at a dispensary. And I just did it and serving and helping people, yeah, and I met some great people throughout the industry. I've done been to the events and met and talked to certain people and been in like certain spaces and I was like this is pretty cool. I feel like I'm a.
Speaker 1:It's fun, it's a good time.
Speaker 2:I'm working with cannabis, like why not? It's something that if you're smoking, you're still a shitty person. I don't really feel like you should smoke or you're not smoking.
Speaker 2:Or you're probably not Like. It's probably probably like a good person. Everybody fucked up and they ain't on the way. But then if you work and you really care about the actual plant and shit, or you've been a better person and that's what makes it like a dope little industry, I'll be on that. But it's still some shitty people out here Like that's just in it for the money.
Speaker 1:Which is gross Like I don't like that aspect of it.
Speaker 2:It's not about the money, cause it's always gonna be around till the next killer.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:You don't see that in this life.
Speaker 1:Okay, you don't see that in this life. I'm sorry, I ain't trying to see none of that. In the days Cause I need a bunker, I'm going to the bunker, frightening Cause even that, cause I told you about it my cousin. She was like I don't know why people are insisting on surviving the end of the world. She was like, cause you not know, you're not gonna know what you're coming up into. Like you're opening up to. Like once you come out the bunker and you open to ground, like you don't know what the fuck is going on out there. You don't know if, as soon as you open the thing, some poisonous gas is gonna come in and kill your ass. Like you don't know what could happen on the other side of what the hell might happen.
Speaker 2:You don't have enough food to just be chilling.
Speaker 1:I feel like Cause.
Speaker 2:I'm gonna Cause, if you watch it real hard, I want a bunker. This side of this room will be kind of ideal. In a Wi-Fi. I'm even more in a store, maybe like a lifetime.
Speaker 1:That generator. That's like look up to a Tremio and a little light to the watch. I feel it.
Speaker 2:That's how you stay in shape and watch TV, so I'm ready for whatever. Open that door. Hussa, that's some super in the near chip.
Speaker 1:Okay, cause I mean to be quite honest, I mean I don't even want to get into that. Cause, take it to the next video whole episode we're having at the end of the world. Like, realistically, I want to do something quick.
Speaker 2:I'm coming over here. You got some guns. I'm gonna have to have at least a few.
Speaker 1:I do have a plan for like a bomb.
Speaker 2:Breakdown. That's extreme. What if this one person that comes to the taxi, oh bomb You're gonna run.
Speaker 1:Throw it, yah Duh.
Speaker 2:So whatever's behind him, if there's something behind him they know, oh it is, it blew up. We might as well go on somewhere else with this shit. Well, yes.
Speaker 1:I got a plan for like societal breakdown, like something like that.
Speaker 2:Like we up, we're not going to play the only thing that could possibly still we might see in a long time the way shit going.
Speaker 1:I'm gonna let slavery's gonna definitely make a comeback. Which means slavery's already happening. The United, the prison system Well, I don't even want to say slavery, that's extreme.
Speaker 2:I don't think nobody's willing to do that anymore.
Speaker 1:It's still happening, the segregation I feel like it's definitely making its way back. I feel like the segregation is always already happening because of the redlining and the segregation.
Speaker 2:It's gonna be like in our face, like the non-negotiable. It's gonna be a money thing. It's not gonna be really what you look like. The affirmative action is not the gear off topic, but that whole getting rid of affirmative action what else is it they got rid of? Or they trying to get rid of the board of education or something.
Speaker 1:That shit is like. The crazy part is affirmative action was started for, benefitted the most and continued to until it's dissolution. It benefited white women. It was for white women. It was created for white women. They were the ones Same thing like welfare Created for white women.
Speaker 1:They're the ones who made ones who continued to benefit from it. They don't want you to know that, because that's not the image we want to paint as who the welfare queen is. Who milk in the system, who living on the land? You know what I'm saying? It's not. That could be a whole other episode, I'm not gonna get it. Lulet Back to the weed. What's your favorite way to consume cannabis? Oh, good, old fashioned leaf. It's nothing like a good old fashioned. It's just beautiful, the whole getting it ready.

Speaker 1:It's like you put it Once you smoke it. I wrote this. It's private.
Speaker 2:I put it to work for this. It's just me and my mother when I first started smoking by myself. That was like the time flowing Like cause.
Speaker 1:I was really like it was a I think it was like a Friday night and I was off work but I had money. I nobody could hang out. I was just like I don't know what I'm about to do and I was like I want to smoke. And I was like, well, I got a wee man. I'm over 18. I could the fuck Like literally hit the wee bag.

Speaker 1:Wait, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2:Like you, nervous, I was never a good. Well, now I feel like I'm a pride for Roaston. I don't know if I should shout anything. Okay, Again, I was so brave in the Roaston like you could just like sit there like like, are you?
Speaker 1:I would be brave. Yeah, like I know, okay cause.
Speaker 2:I was.
Speaker 1:I would be the type of person that would like study or like know, or try to like remember your mama jokes or like the things, whatever the thing is, and then cause Roaston was a thing, and like when I was a kid, like it was really a thing, like we used to call it a beast in our context and you would just be like you, so do, do, do, do that, like, and it would literally be like. I don't know why. It would literally be hilarious, though, but it was like an episode of your mama, basically essentially yeah, and it's like your mama's so dumb, she she's great to a parkard Like, oh, okay, good job.
Speaker 2:You know all type of stuff. I had a good three of four, and then if, like, they would make you want to fight me after, like the fourth, fourth, last thing right here, that's all the head. Wow, like I was not good at it, though. Like I was so nice and so shy Like I just was, like I didn't have to, I don't know what to say. I was like yo, how so small.
Speaker 1:You walk in front of the door and trip over to make things Right. Ha ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ha ha. And I boo. Who's that other one? Yo, mama, your hair is so short and she had to curl and be raised Like it would be like childish Roaston. It was always something childish and hilarious, like fuck yeah, but it was. I remember this one boy. He used to always it would always be like an elongated one.
Speaker 1:He was like you smell like the scum that went through the sewer and went down the trash and went through the. You be listening like. Is this done yet? Like, because it's not.
Speaker 2:I'm like my comeback to be very personal, like I've definitely returned to like Azalea Banks and Wild Nose.
Speaker 2:Like I'm just a big person, I'm not very personal and like that's how it would go and they'd be like you're just playing, I'm like I don't know what else to say, but like you can't read, like you talk and shit, like you can't, literally, you just read in class and it took a fucking hour. You can't read, so shut the fuck up. And now you want to fight, because I just said you're like you may shit up and I told the truth. Like like that's not fair.
Speaker 1:Well, that's why I'm terrible, cause I would live like that when you said it in that moment and I would not be able to stop myself from laughing.
Speaker 2:The question is is it true?
Speaker 1:I mean, then you really can't read.
Speaker 2:Like man, I remember that you got mad at me. I'm like why would you say that? Like she was literally talking shit and y'all didn't say nothing. But the thing is, I said she can't read. I'm the bad guy we heard her. Oh God Don't blame them, mumbling over these words and shit Like you know what.
Speaker 1:I'm saying, yeah, no, I feel you. I was a little little type of kid Like you hit my sensitive corner. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go below the belt, bitch. I'm taking that belt off of whoopie your ass. What Like we not? Oh, I'm not. I'm changed, I'm a better person. Y'all want some of this.
Speaker 2:I'm like what are you? What is this? Yeah, it's a leaf bar Strawberry and crunch. It smells good, smells good, thank you. So, though I take a little, that's a little Perfect, got it Okay, oh.
Speaker 1:I just, I just like a good edible too. You get the right edible at the right time. Baby you gonna be.
Speaker 2:I'm feeling. Edible is a cool what you never know. That's why you never know it's gonna hit you. And even it hit you, it like how it hit you. You never know it's gonna hit you Cause some, some of it does. Some of it does Some of it like very minimal effect.
Speaker 1:Have you ever taken one and thought it was a dub, but then ate something and then it kicked in Mm-hmm.
Speaker 2:Like actual food. I feel like you gotta eat before you take the edible, something that hits your stomach and digest Mm-hmm, what are you thinking I'm at. The very first time I took the edible, it was brown. No cookies. I'm talking about cookies. My dumb ass, I mean my mind. I'm like I've smoked before. At this point, so I'm like you think, so I'm thinking it's going to affect me as I'm eating it, because I'm like, as I know, weed has an instant effect, then you used it by yourself.
Speaker 2:You were thinking it was going to affect me. I was by myself. Yeah so I ate the cookie and I'm just sitting there for like 10 minutes, 15 minutes. I'm just like I don't feel shit, like it's a bad, bad show. I don't know I ate another one. That's like, oh, yuck. I ate another one still, Just like I ain't feel shit, Fuck this shit. Like maybe it was not my thing, Chow, I was just laying there and next thing you know like my body just vibrated and it was just like an instant vibration.
Speaker 2:I couldn't get off the bed. I was sitting on the bed for like at least, if not the whole night at least a few hours Just like I was on the bed just stuck, just like my body's vibrating. I'm vibrating, can I even move? I don't know.
Speaker 1:Oh no, I understand that's a good. Everybody got the edible story. Ok, if that's the one. My friend gave me a big ass gummy berry about that big, and she was like just eat the head. Like don't you know, don't eat the whole thing.
Speaker 2:I'm like all right, Get the head off my head and I'm like bye-bye.
Speaker 1:I'm gonna eat some bullshit 20 minutes go by, I'm gonna eat some bullshit. Star Wars number one like I'm about to fuck the guy. Yeah, I'm about to fuck the guy Soon as I finished rolling the blame, it was almost like somebody was like we're in the dump and it was like I was like, didn't I just what I was like just come? I was like, oh shit, I'm like, oh, the teddy bear, like mm.
Speaker 2:They definitely be sneaking up on me. I'm still about to fuck this block. Yeah, yeah, oh, the head of the whole situation. So my cousin? I got a Mexican cousin. She'd be like buckled with butters and edibles. You know what I'm saying she just had a big ass bowl. She cooks also, so it was over, there had tacos and nachos. And she's like, yeah, put some butter on it and make it edible. I'm like, oh, she's like it's only like 50 milligrams, a whole dropper.
Speaker 2:So me, I'm like, bet, I'm gonna do like three To think it's like 150, right, yeah, 20 minutes go by, she's like yes, sorry, that's the bigger dropper, it's 250. I'm like each. I'm like each. She's like, yeah, I'm like dog, I'm about to be done. So you just took like 700 at this point. Then I went back to the second season and put another one on Like, another two on Like you know, just spread it on the dough.
Speaker 1:Oh, ok, so.
Speaker 2:I'm frizzled. It gets to fucking move. I'm on the couch. She said I was just sitting on the couch, Felt like for like four or five hours. They said it was only like an hour. They felt like the whole time I was like, oh, you're back. And I was like what do you mean?
Speaker 1:I'm back, then I go somewhere.
Speaker 2:I was like nothing happened. I was like I just sat down and there's like no, I didn't even sleep. I was like your body reset, I was fucked up. So since then I just don't think Edibles. Really, I could take a lot of Edibles to fuck me up, because I was well over 1,000. Have you ever?
Speaker 1:done a pink panties pizza.
Speaker 2:I had to a little spot. They think no, what's that?
Speaker 1:No, it's not a OK.
Speaker 2:I'm going to be talking to Pizza Cat.
Speaker 1:No, he's Detroit. A pink panties pizza. Basically he makes edible pizzas and he do breastics and wings and stuff like that, oh, there's some edible and you just got to call yeah, it's edible, right, edible Chef?
Speaker 1:And you call the number. I think you got this. You got to go to Instagram and get the number. You call the number and put your order or whatever, and I haven't tried it yet. Ok, I'm scared of that, but they say it like the smallest one. The thing you can get is 500 milligrams, like the whole pizza. So if you get a personal pizza and it's 500 milligrams, that would be like 125 a slice, depending on how you cut it up, you know.
Speaker 2:And I used to eat 200 more. I'd like to have 200 like 9 in the morning. I feel like I just reached the point where I could do 200. For like a couple weeks straight and this is like a little kick. Yeah, I'm afraid when they get to edibles and real food I stay away from it. You're going to get a little dang cute.
Speaker 1:Because you're going to eat it. You know how we love pizza. We do love pizza. I'm going to lie.
Speaker 2:I feel like butter and oil. Like you make real food, you never really know how much.
Speaker 1:Maybe even throw one shit in there.
Speaker 2:You can't really gauge. We like to drive one day, but it's fine. I've tried like food with twist that shit gas, like some lamb chops, mac and cheese, chicken wings, but then like you can't just put that shit in the fridge if somebody else might fuck around and grab a little warm and up, yeah, and be on the moon.
Speaker 1:And they like strong cheese, don't get that pizza to the kids, lord Jesus, yeah, no, that's not going to work.
Speaker 2:Have you, or have you ever experienced somebody like on a wee paranoia trip?
Speaker 1:And it's kind of like a drag, because they bring your high down and you just like, are you OK? Like, I mean, you're like, are you?
Speaker 2:OK, I'm so strange with the thing that I smoke because I stay away from sativas, Because you know there's only certain sativas I can smoke. A sativa, it's just got to like. I just really look like the effect. You know Caled though and yeah, because that's usually what happens when somebody has a trip and got a cousin, but she came in she was about to go to law school and shit, and then she's like Detroit, we look different.
Speaker 2:And I'm like all right, babe, we just drive and she's like my heart's supposed to be beating like this. I'm like what. I'm like, is it going fast? She's like no, it's just like Do, do, do. I'm like you just high. She's like you, sure. She's like I'm window down. I'm like the window's already down, bro, like you, fucked up. Like it's funny.
Speaker 1:It's not about me.
Speaker 2:If you can understand that they're tripping in the moment, it's usually funny. You see it, you know, and then you just help them through it. But like you know, they like trip and trip and like bro, sit your ass down. Look, she's like yeah, because some of them, some of them are like all right, you blow my eye.
Speaker 1:Those be the ones that I usually run into and they just be like you've never had weed before. Like, are you a medication? You're a patient. I'm so pretty.
Speaker 2:We try to be cool and usually I can talk my way through it. Like once I know I'm about to trip, I'd be like, ok, you're fine, you're good, it's just we chill out. And I'm like, no, but bitch, really, I think something's wrong.
Speaker 2:I really be talking to myself like no, but bitch, I think no, something's going on. I can't breathe. I'm like, no, but just we, your mouth's just dry. I'm going to get my own start. I drink some water. I be having a fool, like back and forth. I'm like, ok, but bitch, something's wrong, like I don't know, like my left ear is doing a little something. No, you're fine, it's the weed. It literally be like 10, 15 minutes of that. But in my self I'm like, ok, is this normally when you smoke?
Speaker 2:No, it's really just to keep it based Like anything. That's like an upper, like I get too excited, too happy to hear I'm fucked up. I don't really miss a thing, it's not even the feeling, it's just the taste Like most of them are citrusy.
Speaker 1:I think, I like that I like the citrusy.
Speaker 2:And I like Like fighting the orange and somebody's dump pepper.
Speaker 1:I do like the orange tasting ones, so I've had something like that Tastes just like orange, I prefer lemony sweet or, like you know, just stuff like that, I don't know Cherry stuff like that, something more like that, yeah, but not that Y'all know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2:That's super citrus Lemony terpene, or whatever I do, like that one.
Speaker 1:I ain't going to lie, I really like that one. But also, I don't know, maybe it's because my ADHD, but I like a sativa Because it's like I'd be up and I'd be like doing the things and like go to work, I can wait tables, like I can do the things, like help people I can. Oh yeah, I'm just up and like it, don't feel like nothing. The time go by fast. Ok, I'll be chilling.
Speaker 2:That's why I like it, because it's like my mind be racing so much. Like the hindicant life would be like ugh, chill out, I'm not sure, I'm just fine it ain't that big.
Speaker 1:I'm just saying OK. Well, I think this has been a fun and dang-capped episode of. Well, I'm going to show the people on my NECA phone on. June 30.
