I got this. This is just dry.
One time for a video,
I was trying to get a shot, so I wasn't
smoking for an effect.
I was just smoking for the shot.
I actually took
two big dabs
right back to back because I had
the best smoke, and I
had 100% regret.
I was like, That's great.
The dab drools are the funniest thing in the world.
That's something I have to ask Koala, too.
Because I've seen a bunch of her videos.
And she is the queen of the drool.
Queen of those big dabs and those big clouds.
And you're just like, how?
How are you doing this right now?
Like, it's crazy.
I hit my little bubbler and I'm dying.
So, like, her bowls are massive.
Everything about her.
It's like my lungs are just not, you're not that cool.
Cheers, by the way cheers
sorry guys i'm i'm working at the same time here i just grabbed a beer and i'm trying to
get the kb site finalized so that we can drop the kb site too
kushlings is ready to go kushling site will be added to the bio shortly we'll drop it in discord
so make sure that you're in discord i think a lot of the news and a lot of the alpha that we're
going to be dropping is going to be in discord so make sure that you you join the community
links in the bio oh i have a question for you so being that i'm new to this universe of nfts and crypto when you're saying i've got the
alpha i don't know the vocab very well so a lot of what you guys say is very encrypted to me
so i'm like yeah sure the alpha i feel a little bullish but wait that's a bit bearish
what does that mean? Oh my God.
That's hilarious.
So just a lot of the project details,
like we're going to give people like kind of first,
first glance at what we're,
we're going to be working on things.
We're going to be releasing,
things like that.
So it's kind of just like a competitive advantage,
being able to get in early on some,
some things.
Cause Keith is is you know obviously
very well connected individual um so there's there's a lot of things that we're working on
that if you're part of the discord and you're part of the early adopters of this you'll get
inside scoop which is a huge benefit in this space. Not like insider, but just like, yeah, beneficial information.
So alpha just means like you got the good stuff.
Like you got the good intel.
You got the good intel before kind of like it's public.
Yeah, publicly released.
That makes sense.
Thanks for that.
Yeah, of course.
All right, you guys guys we have officially started the
space koala pups is here everyone throw up some hearts thank you so much for being here koala
welcome hey thank you so much for having me appreciate it hey koala nice to meet you
so nice to meet you been looking forward to this so it's gonna be fun
low-key fangirling thank you so much i appreciate you guys
yeah thank you so much for being here it's so nice to officially meet you um i personally have
been a big fan for a long time actually you were the one who inspired me to come out to oklahoma
and start going in the working in the cannabis industry.
So big thank you for that.
You are an absolute inspiration to all of us here in the space.
So we actually, I want to get it started with asking you not just how is your day, but how about, you know, how did you first start in the cannabis industry?
I'd love to hear your origin
story awesome well first of all thank you so much for the kind words i truly appreciate it
um i cut into the space kind of by accident to be honest with you i just kind of posted a picture
with a bong um like a decade ago and then it just kind of one thing led to another brand started reaching out the photo
got shared on a bunch of cannabis pages. And then here we are 10 years later, you know,
kind of taking it day by day figuring out what you know, tomorrow looks like.
Wow, that is so awesome. I'm really glad that you're here in the space and that you started
your journey because I mean, we're just, we love all your content.
It's amazing.
Thank you so much.
I appreciate that.
Yeah, it's crazy. to build like, you know, individual people can build amazing brands in, in this space,
but like the businesses that stem off of this is crazy. It's such a massive industry. So
I still feel that like, we're still early in this, like we're going to see a lot of,
of big brands emerge on the, on the crypto side of things tied to this.
on the crypto side of things tied to this.
Yeah, for sure.
I honestly am not too informed on the crypto side whatsoever,
so I don't have much input on that.
But as far as the cannabis space goes, I think you're right.
I think this is just such a beginning stage still,
even though it's like, you know, cannabis has been around for so long
and there are already so many companies that are thriving and killing it. i feel like there is we're just scratching the surface of what to come
yeah no and that's so cool that like you're not really tied into the the web 3 and crypto space
um i think we're going to start seeing that a lot on our side of things um we're starting to see a lot of legitimate businesses getting built out of web
three where people are starting to apply like you know old school business methodologies and
building proper brands now and you know i think soon we're going to start seeing a lot of it
kind of leak over and mesh with you know what you guys are doing on the non-crypto side of Twitter and socials.
And then what these brands have been building huge communities on the crypto side of things.
I think that's the biggest benefit that we can bring as we develop these businesses to the IRL side of things is the communities.
We have massive communities in this space that are super supportive. you know, the IRL side of things is the, you know, the communities.
We have massive communities in this space that are super supportive.
And go ahead.
No, I love to hear it.
I think a community support is so important,
no matter like what industry or what you're working on, in all honesty, because that could make such a difference between just like feeling like
you're on the right track. Like you have, you know,
people that are supporting you that are rooting for you,
maybe given some feedback and what they see from the side.
I think the community is like, no matter what community you're a part of,
it's so important for mental growth and business growth in general.
Right. Cause you get like that's been the coolest kind of part of this space
is that you're building alongside people so you are in that constant kind of like soundboarding
to try and come up with like the best ideas and the best narratives and and the best product ideas
so um yeah i love i love building kind of publicly in the web three space because
of that, because you get to kind of like, you're not just releasing an end product or,
or an end kind of, um, like social, I don't even know what the word would be, but you're,
you're building it with the community and that's, yeah, that's been huge for everything
that we've done on our side. And that's, yeah, that's been huge for everything that we've done on our side.
So it's, yeah.
So I would love to open up the room to ask, come and ask questions, come up to speaker
and ask any kind of questions that you'd like.
I have, I actually do have another question about the cannabis industry.
I actually do have another question about the cannabis industry.
So what would you say to someone who's just starting out, who wants to get involved in the community?
What would be your best advice for them if they want to become a creator as well?
It's a great question.
I would say if you were trying to be in the cannabis space, probably the best advice that I could give is try to be on as many
platforms as you can. I know that sounds really exhausting and, you know, it could seem more
overwhelming than it really is. You could recycle your content on the different platforms. It's just
that some things will hit on one platform, but not on another. Sometimes, you know, for example,
Instagram has been very difficult for the whole cannabis community for as long as I've been a part of this community.
So I think to not let it drain you, to not let it discourage you, you got to make sure that you're able to reach your audience and you're able to put out content on other platforms during times when maybe an account gets taken down.
Or, you know, maybe you're put on hold where you can't post, let's say on YouTube, because you have strikes or something like that. So I would strongly suggest making sure that you
are on Twitter and you are on YouTube and YouTube shorts and TikTok and Instagram and Facebook and
anything else that you can include yourself on. Because I've been deleted close to 50 times on
my Instagram. I actually had to change up my content completely, removing anything cannabis from there. And it does partially feel like starting from scratch in a way,
trying to push other platforms. But knowing that you can be safe on other platforms, like Twitch,
for example, if you're live streaming on Twitch, it's a cannabis-friendly platform. As long as you
are not consuming and driving, you're pretty much good to go.
I really think that that's going to help out a lot because there's days where content's just not performing.
You know, being a creative, a lot of the time you think it's you, you think it's the way
that you're creating stuff.
And sometimes it is, but you'll notice that if you post the same video on different platforms,
it might blow up on one and not on the other, you know?
And that, I think, really helps mentally for creatives
to be like, it's not you, it's the algorithm,
it's the platform, it's whatever page you're posting it on.
And I think that could help kind of push forward
and not let it consume you so much.
That's awesome. Thank you so much.
I did suspect that the algorithm was
might be working against us stoners you know um oh Mrs Hayes I see your hand up go ahead
this is more of a personal question I love watching you smoke I love your glass
which is your favorite bong to smoke out of? My favorite pieces would probably be Illadelf. I'm big on beakers.
I think they're really smooth function and they're simpler to clean. So like my, I think like 14 inch
Illadelf is my favorite. And then the next one from that, I have like a blue and pink beaker
bong that I got for my birthday from a couple of glass blowers. But one of the guys that
made that glass piece used to work for Illidelf so all the function and everything
from there is kind of pulled from Illidelf so I would probably say that's my favorite
dream bong there yes thank you so much no problem at all appreciate the question
hey I also want to take a minute and say hi to maxi i saw maxi pull up here
as a speaker what's up maxi what up b hi viz uh it's nice to meet you kovala uh i i was checking
out your page and checking out your content um i think it's really cool like what you do like your
hustle um i am a connoisseur you know i, I definitely can't hang with Keith or probably you,
but I'm definitely a connoisseur too.
Which is like one thing I love about this space is like,
it's like that has that decentralization feel of like,
everybody kind of does what they want.
Like everybody pretty much smokes
or there's not really like the same kind of censoring
like you get like on other platforms
or uh even like IRL and and through other avenues um in life and so yeah I uh I love what you guys
are doing that's why I love Kush Links I love that the the ecosystem around this is supporting
and bringing out like different people um because ultimately like onboarding people into this space
is like ideal right but like there's
still like a a middle ground of being able to cross collaborate and like educate and inform and
just find people with common interests so yeah I appreciate being here today I know Keith was
going to be joining us in a little bit and it's really nice to meet you koala it's nice to meet you too
so koala on on that um what what platform have you found to be kind of like the most receptive
like that you haven't had as many issues with like would it be x um honestly it goes up and
down for probably like five or so years. Instagram was my bread
and butter, probably the leading analytics generator for me in a way. YouTube started
doing really good for me once I started on YouTube and then my channel went down. So ever since I got
my YouTube channel back, like there's no push on the explore page. So it's really just whoever
chooses to go and watch the
video which is really like kind of killed it but you know when you love what you do it really
doesn't matter five people watch or 5 000 you want to be doing it regardless you know um you
talked about irl a little bit i i'm really enjoying twitch live streaming to be honest with you
i've gotten in this like area where i enjoy people just getting a chance to get to know me without the edited content, without having to be like, what's a good hook?
What should I, you know, because everything is like strategy nowadays with content, it seems like.
Like make sure that the first couple of seconds, you know, gets people's attention.
And it's like, I enjoy just being raw and real and honest.
just being raw and real and honest. And this is what we're doing right now. And I don't want to,
And this is what we're doing right now.
you know, do a certain thing or say a certain thing just because it will be a nice, a good
hook just to get people's attention. So I've recently been really enjoying live streaming
on Twitch. I multi-stream it to YouTube and Twitter as well, because I know a lot of people
don't have a Twitch account. But for anybody that's trying to create cannabis content and
feel safe and comfortable being on live streams, just talking to people, to me, it's been like the best platform.
There's no deletions that I've experienced there.
I haven't seen other creators get taken down.
There's nothing that gets flagged.
The worst that they'll do is if you're over consuming during a stream, they'll make it 18 and over, which is fine.
Twitter for me was blowing up for a couple of years. I mean,
I would get millions and I had one roll up that got almost 100 million views in like a couple of
days. And then that slowed down too. So I just feel like overall, like you just got to kind of
keep going with it because the platforms like switch places. I had TikTok account that was
like blowing up. We were doing so good. And then the TikTok got taken over, taken down overnight. So now you just kind of got to start from scratch. You know, that's why I'm like, just push as many platforms as you can at the same time. Because you just never really know what's going to happen. And you build little communities on each one because somebody might be hanging out on Twitch, but they don't have any other social media because it's, you know, very toxic. Twitter is not the most nice platform. So I know a lot of people refuse to get on the
platform, you know, so I'm just trying to reach as many people as I can on different platforms,
but I'll be honest, every single platform makes it a bit tough for the cannabis community.
Yeah, I love that. And I, and I think you're so on point with um like the twitch streaming about
the realness of it i feel that like so many things are now heavily curated and and heavily
manipulated as an end product that people genuinely enjoy the the raw content and just
like kind of the real content that people are putting out um you know
without all the bells and whistles and all that they like the genuine conversation right and
hearing genuine people we're gonna see a lot more of that yeah i agree with that for sure i genuinely
feel like a lot of the content is going in the live streaming direction more and more because
there's just like i said so many things online like it's fake a lot of people are like oh is this
a skit like was this set up you know and it's just you know a lot of questions that get asked
when sometimes we just want to open the app I don't want to go back and forth about finding
out all the things I want to know that what I'm seeing is happening and I can just like feel
involved on it and know that when something else happens for that creator, I was there when they were going through this space and it kind of feels bonded in a way.
It just kind of feels like you're like FaceTiming with a friend versus just watching very carefully edited and curated content.
I think that might be the future of content, honestly.
That's the best thing I've ever heard because that's what people, I feel like they need now.
They need that community.
They need that family.
And we're on our phones all the time.
So, oh, yes, Mrs. Hayes, go ahead.
I keep raising my hand.
Sorry, guys. On that note, as a normal person, like normie, as people call it on here, it's nice to see
relatable content.
Like to me, I could sit in front of a computer for a whole day if the content is relatable.
Like I like to be entertained, but I also like to feel like I'm watching and vibing with somebody who
actually gets like normality because, you know, everybody gets so wrapped up in the glitz and
glamour and fame and this and that and go, go, go, go, go that you kind of fall into that routine
of, you know, always being an entertainer, always being this persona. So that live streaming,
it's nice to see that the person who you're actually giving your time to is there listening
genuinely and not only listening, but like interacting back with you. Like the person,
how's the word? Sorry, I'm high as F. So I'm trying to get words out of my mouth.
the word sorry I'm I'm high as f so I'm trying to get words out of my mouth um the personability
if that's a word that you bring and like you're very raw and unfiltered like I totally relate to
your coughing videos god I cough on every talk so I'm like yes I'm not the only one. So thank you for being relatable.
You know, like like this said, like you're a big part of why I felt confident enough to come out here and be like, I'm a stoner.
So live with it.
So thank you.
I love to hear that.
Honestly, one of my favorite messages I used to receive in the beginning of
creating content is when people would get comfortable sharing that they're stoners,
whether it's with their partner, with their family member, with some of their friends.
It was wild to me that their close circle didn't know that they consumed and they would message me
and be like, hey, if you feel comfortable posting it for everybody in the world to see,
I should feel comfortable and confident to tell my partner or my family member.
So I love that.
Like, I just I don't see cannabis as a bad thing at all.
And so for me, I feel like it needs to be showcased and spoken about more that like you can take a bong rip.
You can go do whatever it is that you need to do.
You could cook a meal.
You could clean your car.
You could do whatever it is that you would do.. You could cook a meal, you could clean your car, you could do whatever it is that you would do.
And it's not really like holding you back.
If anything, like cannabis for me helps me process things
in a better way that works better for me.
You know, best way that we can compare it to is alcohol.
Obviously it's another substance that people use.
And it's like crazy to see that cannabis is so like suppressed.
And it's like, even on these platforms, the reason
why our companies can't thrive is because even that, like we're not allowed to talk about it.
The more they find it, the more restrictions that they put on each platform, which is crazy because
people like, let's say Dwayne Johnson can come out with a tequila brand and do a trend on TikTok,
like, hey, take a shot of tequila with no face, you know, being made. That's cool. People
are taking shots of tequila before they go drive or go do whatever, you know. But as soon as we
mention the word gardening, it's like taboo. It's really crazy. So I feel like the more of us,
like I love getting on TikTok and seeing so many people talking about gardening,
even though we have to use words to kind of get around the platform and still be there when,
you know, the content's not so welcome.
It's awesome to see so many people being like verbally speaking up about it, that it is a part of their life and it helps them.
So I just think it just has a good, it's just going to go up from here.
People are going to jump on it more and more and see the benefits of cannabis.
I could not agree more.
I live in Texas and it's Texas and nothing's legal here.
You know, I got trash ass Delta aid
and fricking THCA that's been sprayed on
with like so many additives and like just the trash.
It's like, yeah, it's awful.
But like, especially here, it's like,
obviously because it's not legal,
like it's even more taboo.
And I'm like, we're pretty much an open book.
I really don't care.
Like now other people
see it like especially with the comparison to alcohol like that's like a big thing for me too
is like you know like if we're really looking at the two like you pick pick whatever you want to
pick like that helps you get by in this life for sure like that's that's totally your business and
you're right so like um i definitely experienced some of that some of the you know judgment and stuff but i i live authentically as myself so at the end of the day it doesn't
really matter but i understand how you know for some it's like finding uh that that what we were
talking about the commonality you know the personality like it's a creator's market right
now you see commercials now with like influencers who have been on tick tock for the last five years and
again because it's like more relatable to buy from somebody you know and you trust um that's
why twitch streamers like people who are streaming all day like they're just like hanging out in
their room like on twitch all day and like they got all these followers and they're you know they're
making money and getting um you know all these deals it's because again that personal people
are looking for something that's real
in a world full of like propaganda
and a bunch of bullshit.
So it's interesting to see the shift happening.
And it's also exciting to know that like success,
wealth and like your future and your career
can be at like the tip of your fingers,
just through your phone, you know,
just through your laptop,
just through using the internet.
And, you know, I'm really excited to see more creators. Like one of the things I've done
is work with sponsors and partners for creators and entertainers. And I am seeing a huge shift,
um, from the entertainment field, really going into, uh, funding creators and sponsoring creators.
So I can't wait to see like this new mass onboarding into Web3
because when people start to understand like the people that are normies, I guess you could say,
when they start to understand what Web3 really is about, then they'll realize that this is actually
the field and the avenue to take to even like enhance like owning your own IP, owning your,
your like your community, your following, um, and going to
centralize, like making money. So, uh, I think all of that ties into, to what a lot of us are here
for. Um, at the end of the day, like your content may be like entertaining and, um, like therapy
for some, whatever, but we're kind of like all in the same, uh, ecosystem in a way and like just
supporting one another so
i just wanted to add that to what you're saying because i felt like everything everybody was
saying up here yeah maxi that's a super good segue actually to i have a question for Koala about what would have been, so clearly you, you know about Web3.
So what would have been kind of like the, the deterring thing or kind of the obstacle of you wanting to kind of grow your brand into, into the Web3 side of things?
And like, what, what does that even mean to you?
Like, what would be your, your hurdle to, to be able to cross over? And,
and I actually hate using that because like web two and web three,
like it's web, right. It's just like,
we have kind of different toolage, but like what I'd be curious,
like what has kind of been your,
your stopping point to wanting to grow into that, that segment?
Um, it's just not to be honest with you, it's not something that I'm very informed on and it just has never tickled my fancy to go in and jump, jump into the rabbit hole of like.
Trying to learn more about it.
And that's probably on me.
Um, but yeah, I mean, to be quite honest with you i am 24 7 filming content editing content
live streaming so there's been like very little time to step out of what i'm already doing to
kind of plan for a different route i guess um so this just has not been something that i've
dove into whatsoever to be honest completely understandable it's very it's very time consuming
i totally get it and it's a hell of a learning curve but we're working on that side of it
yeah i think i just need to pick your brain maybe a little more or something or somebody
yeah it's just not yeah yeah definitely feel free because like a lot of the things that we're
working on is to try and like blur this whole kind of divide between web two and web three.
And like, you know, it's just web with different toolage.
So if people want to participate, let's say with community and these things and these experiences as just like an in real life person, like let's say Mrs.
person, like let's say Mrs.
Like they'll be able to do that.
Like they'll be able to do that.
But if you're, you know, kind of on the crypto side of things, on the Web3 side of things,
you'll get intrinsic benefits to being that.
So it needs to become more of a space where we can all live together and then be able
to, you know, benefit however we want to benefit from it.
Like if you have no interest in crypto and Web3, then, you know, benefit however we want to benefit from it, right? Like if you have no interest in crypto and Web3,
then, you know, you still live and enjoy the experiences
that you have with what we're building.
But then if you are Web3 savvy,
well, then there's different, you know,
rewards and possibilities.
But yeah, I would definitely love to chat with you
behind the scenes about that.
Sure, yeah, we can definitely do that.
Yay, no more gatekeeping.
That's the best. I love it.
That's the worst thing we could have ever done
in our humble beginnings is gatekeep like this.
So we need to definitely tear down those walls.
And that's what we're working on i feel like it's what's created that stigma that hides behind crypto and nfts like scammy vibes
like stay away it's like we don't know enough like how do you expect us to want to be a part
of your project so this is great this is amazing thank you oh wait can i request the toke from the group
can we all just light them up yes absolutely let's take it's uh yeah it's 233 this is the
perfect midpoint for a bong rip so you guys if you have your bongs your blunts your dabs whatever
you have get them ready and let's go ahead and unmute and cheers. Cheers.
Careful, I might die.
Yay, I didn't die.
I'm not coughing your ears off, guys.
You're welcome.
You know that one, that one deep inhale you take and it like hits
your lungs and then you cough so hard you're lightheaded after and you're like yeah that one
hit like i'm gonna be good now you almost black out because you're so just choking like it deviated
to both lungs at the same time totally know what you're talking about i feel like if it's not then
then i that type of puff then I need to have another one.
Because those little, like, ooh, I exhaled a little bit.
It just doesn't hit like it.
I feel like I just wasted product, but I don't even feel the hype.
That's so real.
I want to know Koala's idea.
What do they call it?
Your dream blunt rotations.
Anybody and everybody that kind of honestly, I don't really have celebrities or I guess people that I like look up to I feel like
we're all just people at the end of the day and as the days keep turning you see that like everybody
that we look up to has done some fucking weird shit so you know so for me I feel like my dream
rotation is like my community like my discord chat that's in there if there was a possibility
for all of us to actually smoke together or like my Twitch live stream chat, you know, like every person that's in there all the time
for us to be able to get together and smoke. I think like that would hit me more than being like,
I'd like to smoke with Snoop Dogg or something like that, you know?
Does that mean your dream rotation is happening right now?
Yeah, this is a part of my dream rotation for sure. I would just say more
so in person for sure. So we could see the dab sweats and the drool, you know, it just adds
another layer. But yeah, I just like, I don't know. I just, I really enjoy just smoking with
people in the community, especially like if it's somebody's first time taking a dab, like I love
being a part of that there you know like
and to be honest with you I've been so blessed I've gotten a chance to to smoke with some really
like top-notch people and like half the time it's nothing that great like you don't really bond
they're very private about their stuff you're just kind of there and they're just kind of there
smoking and you know it's not like the same when you like meet up with a group that you really fuck with.
Some friends that you follow online that you've never met in person.
Some creators that maybe make cannabis content.
Once you get together, you just like feel it.
It's like a nice hangout.
You know, that's that's what I like itch for more so.
It's that commonality and relatability.
That was the word.
Thank you for saying the word.
There you go, missus.
There you go.
That's what happens when you're just smoking
back to back here. So it's all good, though.
I see Stoner's got his
hand up. What up?
How you doing?
What up, everyone?
What's up, Kuala Puff?
Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you nice to meet you too
i have a question for you yes what is your uh favorite strain of weed
i so i'm not very picky i'm i will smoke anything and everything in the cannabis space for the
majority of time one strain that does stand out to me the most is Jack Herrera.
Not even for the fact of how it looks, because I don't think Jack Herrera is like the prettiest looking bud.
But the smell that it has to me differs from all the other strains.
And when there's a little Jack Herrera crossover, like I feel like I can smell it.
And it's like very, like very, very different from the other cannabis smells, in my opinion.
So if I had to pick one, I would probably say Jack Herrera.
That's crazy to say that because I literally just found from months ago, I still had like this little, little container, like the packaging of Jack Herrera.
And I was like, man, i wonder if this shit's still good
and uh i took it out and i was like oh i saved it because i'm i'm weird like that like it was
like a really good strain i couldn't smoke the last like bud on it i couldn't do it we're gonna
see if it's good and it's probably been almost a year and it was yeah it's still freaking hit
in almost a year and it was yeah it's still freaking hit. I feel like as long as you keep
it in like a darker spot and not like a super hot humid area like it should be okay to stay
in a closed jar for a little while. Oh I have a question. So Koala, I have been following your growing journey on all the platforms, but I wanted to ask, what is your favorite part about growing? And then what would you say is has been the biggest challenge that you face while growing?
Oh, great questions. Well, I've only had three harvests. I'm on my third, like little,
fourth little plants right now. So not like super informed and educated on it. But I would say as
far as like my favorite parts would be the seed popping process. And the, when I went to go wash
my harvest to go make rosin out of it, that was probably the most fun I had and like seeing the process and
everything that goes into it was really really nice my goal is to wash my next batch whatever
whenever that is is to wash 100 of the harvest because last time I kept some of the bigger nugs
and I trimmed them and I used those for smoking and then I turned the rest into rosin but
the trimming process I mean you are there for hours.
You're sticky.
You're covered in stuff.
You can't go anywhere until it's done.
And then it still has to dry.
And then it still has to, like, cure.
So I would say probably making it into rosin was my favorite.
My least favorite or the most challenging is probably from when my seeds pop and they're in the red solo cups until they like
mature. I find that stage to be like a little bit tougher for me. Like I'm good at the beginning
and I'm good towards the end, but that middle part just kind of messes with me sometimes. So
that's what I'm trying to improve on, on this batch that I'm growing. Awesome. Thank you.
No problem at all. If anybody has any tips or tricks or like links for youtube
videos or anything for growing that you suggest that i check out please feel free to dm me
those links and i would love to look into it
oh heck yeah and if you guys have those links here throw them up at the top
so we can all see we can all see them.
Yes, please.
I've been procrastinating on my grow because I'm scared of failure.
It needs to be perfect.
It just does.
No, don't try to be perfect.
Just do it.
Yeah, that's what I was going to say because it's not going to be perfect. It takes a minute and it's not so easy, but like, it's fun. Like, I don't know if you've ever like grown any fruits or vegetables or like
flowers in your front yard, but like, you know, whenever something new pops out,
you like run out and you're like, there's a little tiny cucumber coming in. And then you
just kind of go in every day. You're like, oh my God, it's bigger now. Like, that's like what this
is. Once the little buds start coming in, it's like,
like you almost want to sit there and watch grass grow in a way because it just looks so cool that it just like produced this and then, you know, the trichomes like get, you know, orange and then
you get to kind of see when it matures. It's like a really cool process once it gets to that part
to come every day and see it like the growth. But it's okay if it doesn't get to that part,
you know, at least you like give it a try, pop some seeds, see what happens, throw them outside, see how the sun treats them,
you know, try some inside in a tent, but it's a lot harder than it seems once you're already
hands-on, I would say. Thank you. Yeah, no, it's definitely adhd that's holding the bag i'm fixating so i just need to
jump no i feel that my adhd holds me back from a lot of things too so i understand that
yeah i got it bad too hey uh i just saw crypto cam through his hand up there i was looking to say hi to you how you doing what's
up gm gm bro man sorry what up what's up i was uh gonna comment while ago but i had to do something
so anyways when y'all talk about taking a rip you know like my favorite is like when you hit a bone rib or you take that dab rib and you just start sweating
profusely right and it's like whoa it's hot in here and then you just like wipe your head like
holy smoke so you like look at your arm right and you're like oh shit i'm sweating a lot right
and then like you look at your buddy you're like bro am i sweating like you and you're like, bro, am I sweating? Like, you know you're sweating, right?
And like for me, like, I'm follically challenged, right? I don't have a lot of hair,
right? When I take that,
just that right bone rip,
I feel like I got a whole head
of hair again, you know what I'm saying?
I love that.
I fucking love that.
You feel every, you feel every follicle
it's straight up man i'm like i gotta i'll be swinging my head around like i got hair again
i'm like hey i remember this feeling it's just sweat flopping around
sorry i was thinking about that i was like oh, I got to get back home and rip a dab.
I definitely think a dab should happen ASAP for anybody and everybody that's listening to this right now.
A dab will do you.
And then it'll do you again.
And like, you know, there's so much, so many benefits that, you know, so many benefits of the plant and everything like that, that I'm just glad that like, you know, more of the community or more of the, you know, people are starting to see that, you know, you know, we are starting to get policy changes and everything like that um you know so that is occurring maybe not to where we want it but every step is a step you know what i'm saying and it's
getting us there and we're starting to see like more businesses or small businesses uh you know
people like us start to put bring products to the market that are utilizing the the plant you know
you're seeing it in construction, hemp crepe.
You're seeing it, you know, you see like those fireplaces.
They even have like little burn logs that are made out of hemp.
And then, you know, all the oils and tinctures and, you know, everything else like that.
I've been working with my business partner on a hemp protein powder, you know,
and we'll be bringing that out soon, you know, just full of,
full of all the goodness that you could think of, like you're just eating seeds, you know what I
mean? But like, like, it's just got so much nutrition to it. And like, it's almost like
the old school snake oil, right? You almost could take it and use it for any application you want it
to, you know, and, and between that and bamboo like you
could like just like do it whatever you want it in the world you know what i mean so i don't know
you guys know i'm a huge huge proponent of the plant and getting into people's hands so i just
i was thinking about having hair again so i had to i had to come up and talk about it. Man, we got to get you some hair.
It keeps coming back up.
We got to send us your address.
We're going to send some wigs over or something.
I think it'll feel really good.
I had no idea you smoked, Cam.
Thank you for sharing.
I work with Red.
What do you mean you
didn't know i smoked i'm being i'm being franticist yeah and cam and cam what you said about the
the hand cream like the ham hand cream for for construction workers like yo i work construction
for like i was a bricklayer for almost 20 years in construction and like that's the only shit that worked
it's actually the only shit that worked bro facts that's what i'm saying like when when when people
figure out how to formulate the plant to whatever use application lotions tinctures oils, you know, for cooking purposes, for your body, for eczema, that's what's called, eczema.
It just has so many just different use cases.
And I just been noticing like the last couple of years, more small businesses will bring it to market.
You know what I mean? Because, you know, because of the legislation, then you can actually grow in more states and,
you know, possess, quote unquote, you know what I mean, the plant, you know, itself.
And so, I don't know, it's exciting to see, you know, just, and sometimes I get surprised. I'm
like, shit, I didn't know you could use it for that. You know what I mean? And it's just like,
dang, you know? So it's awesome. When I get my powder out, you guys DM me.
I'll send you guys all packs out so you guys can try it
because I'm going to need some feedback.
I think it's amazing, but it'd be nice to see what other people do.
Hell yeah.
Also, too, it's something that we've been exploring
because obviously we do quite a bit of merchandising with Okina,
and we're looking at some sustainable clothing, right?
And I know that that's a huge thing is hemp in fabric.
It's massive.
Yeah, I got it.
I just deepened a relationship that I've had with a guy in Nepal for hemp fabric.
And we're working on making some boots and shoes out of hemp.
And they also can produce the full hemp shirts and clothing with material.
They just do the fabric, really, but we're discussing making it into
merchants for sustainable clothing just like that. I love that. We appreciate it it warms my heart to heal here or heal what the Heel? What the heck? It won't. Let me stay over. Hold on. Rewind.
Somebody's smoking.
Who said that? Listen, hear me out. Hear me out. Let me say that again.
It's a beautiful thing to hear a beautiful networking connection between adults.
It's just beautiful. This is great. Thank you for the space. It's just appreciated.
Thank you for being here. And thank you, Koala, too.
It's really so cool to have you here and sesh and talk.
And like, this is an amazing time that we all get to spend together.
This is like, ah, am I too high? Is this actually happening?
No, no problem at all. Thank you guys for including me on this today.
I truly appreciate it. This is a fun little hangout between us. I enjoy it.
Oh, I do have another question. So, um, I, uh, speaking of session, when you had that, I know you've had a lot of, a lot of videos, but when you had that one huge edible video where you
had like, was it a thousand milligrams at once? I have, I am like dying to ask,
how did you recover from doing so much at once for a video?
Man, to be honest with you, I was kind of hoping it was going to hit more because I used to do a
lot of edible challenges for my YouTube channel. And I've gone up to like, I think the most that
I did was like 3000 milligrams for one video.
And I really haven't been doing edibles as much just because sometimes when it does hit, like I, it takes my motivation away. It's really hard for me to like be super body high from the edibles and still continue smoking and filming my content and like feeling alive for it.
So I slowed down on the edibles for quite some time.
And then, you know, I do
the Twitch streaming and we set goals for like a set amount of subs that we reach. And
we had just set a goal that 4000 active subscribers in 30 days, I would do 1000 milligrams. And
my boyfriend was like, I'll do it too. And low key, I was jealous because he got got
like he was like for like two days, he was a little bit, like, slow motion.
And he, like, looked like he really enjoyed it, especially the first day.
Like, he slept so good.
I really didn't feel it that much.
Like, I felt like a lingering body high for, like, a day or two.
But I really didn't feel, like, a mental high from it.
So that was a little bit disappointing.
But I'm not going to sit here and keep being disappointed. We're going to from it. So that was a little bit disappointing, but I'm not going to sit here and
keep being disappointed. We're going to fix it. So the next goal is when we hit 1500 live subs,
I do 1500 milligrams and we're just going to keep it going to find where my sweet spot is going to
be at, but also no pressure with it. Whenever it happens, it happens. And if it doesn't happen for
a while, that's also okay okay but i really do wish it
hit me more to be honest with you because i feel like if i'm consuming that much like i want to
feel it all i'm thinking is gangster gangster that's what they're yelling damn koala thanks
grams of millivanilis of Adderall or what?
No, no, no.
It was RSO,
Rick Simpson oil, put into some capsules just so that there's not a lot of
sugar intake.
Just getting regular edibles.
So it worked really good.
Can I interrupt this program
to bring some breaking news?
I figured out how we can confuse the fuck
out of the boomers if we want to say shit on
Facebook and Twitter and
Instagram and whatever. You just go in your
grok and paste in some
random emojis if you want. Be like,
here, make me a key out of this.
Secret code.
Civil war.
No. Everybody watching the news
that is not
that is not
I don't understand words right now
I gotta back track
open up chat GPT
open chat GPT open G one. Open chat GPT.
Open GROC.
Say, hey, I'd like to make you a crypto key out of emojis.
Instructions not clear.
Finger stuck in toaster.
Take your finger out of your fucking toaster.
Stick it up your bunghole.
It'll do about as much as good.
You confused me, man.
Oh, my God.
You guys are hilarious.
All right.
Let's take a bong rip.
There we go.
All right.
I'm not by my bong.
So another question.
Koala, I can tell that you have a very
high tolerance for
but have you ever tried
the Reef Bar?
the Reef Bar
I'm going to google it just to see if a picture
reminds me but
it doesn't sound familiar one second
I have it if you ever want I'll send you a picture if you want to see it too.
But it is 4,200 milligrams.
And I was just thinking that that would be really fun.
Well, that would be really fun.
But is it really 4,200 milligrams?
It is from hell.
I promise you it is the worst thing I've ever tried in my entire life.
I took a chunk.
I took a dose, just like the recommended dose of like one bar.
I was like, oh, this is so cute.
It's like candy.
It's no problem.
I took it and I was on Mars before Elon.
Like it was not even fun. I was so high that I was like, I have to go to bed. It was not Mars before Elon. Like it was not even fun.
I was so high that I was like, I have to go to bed.
It was not a good time.
And I look at it now with stern in my fridge that I'm like, I will never, I will only never
do this again.
Does it taste like cannabis or do you like, is it like a strong flavor to it or not so
Oh, I'll be real frank about it.
It is horrible aftertaste.
It is so strong.
I don't want to put myself through that.
That doesn't sound pleasing.
I just eat.
So you said 4,200.
I'll just fill up more RSO filled capsules and I'll just swallow those.
At least that doesn't even like hit the taste buds.
And no sugar.
Oh, absolutely.
But that brand is if you ever wanna film a video
that you're like, I need a reaction
and I need the most severe reaction possible.
That is the brand to go to.
And I still have it and I've refused to eat it.
That's so funny.
Yeah, I got it pulled up over here
so that I get familiar with the packaging.
We'll see.
Maybe it pops up for me.
It looks so innocent, right? It looks fun. It's not. It's not. Yeah, that makes sense for sure. For sure.
Thank you for letting me know. If it comes up, I'll give it a try. If anyone tries to like,
just like give you some and be like, oh, hey, just take a chunk. Be like, no, thank you.
Take your trump today. What did you just say?
If anyone tries to give a chunk of that bar, it's so dangerous.
You are on another planet today, sir.
Yo, check it out, though.
You said something about Elon Musk going to Mars, right?
When I was on that bar, I went to Mars before him.
It was a great, great planet. No, I believe Oh, yeah. When I was on that bar, I went to Mars before him. It was a great, great
planet. No, I believe it, dude.
I'd like to... I've been there on
acid once. That was cool.
Edibles never really got me there.
Like, weed
gets me really high, but not edibles.
Still there, or did I get muted or blocked or kicked no we still hear you
oh right on right on oh i was just gonna say is anyone
looked up the timeline for when elon wants to get to mars by
i just want to make sure i don't miss the boat
yeah i i've been following but I haven't heard anything about timelines.
Well, Safari says he thought we could get there by 2026 and 2024.
But not us.
Just an empty ship.
Yeah, for sure they've been there.
There's no way that they haven't.
Just not public.
Let's throw that in the conspiracy channel in the Cushlings Discord.
Have you ever heard of a Mars rover?
Just because Elon didn't go there doesn't mean we haven't.
I'm sure Elon's been there, though.
I don't know, dude.
Maybe they got instant transmission already.
Instant. What's that even from it's not harry potter
oh is that mortal kombat i don't know or dragon ball z oh maybe dragon ball z
taken taken who's taken?
No, I said say again. Hold up.
I'm going to go after my neighbor first doggy.
Oh my gosh.
You are cracking me up, Noah.
Okay, so you guys, we have four more minutes left in our space.
Let's sesh, and if anyone in the listeners want to come up and be a speaker and ask Kuala some questions please feel free to do so
thank you let's go ahead and take another rip
gotta repack
let us know what you guys are smoking on.
I have some strawberry cheesecake.
I'm smoking a marb, but if you want me to look at my empty bag of drugs, I can.
It's weed drugs.
This is Miami. What do you guys...
What do you guys stance, feelings, whatever, when people call weed drugs?
Does that bother y'all no
i think it's just a good drug teamu nixon calls it drugs he's funny oh well he's a dumbass dude
he bought drugs outside of the fucking he basically broke the law of course but he's
the president he can do whatever he. He held up a bag of crack
on national TV and was like,
it was like some
fucking little 14-year-old kid that they
had to lure over by the
White House to, like,
right across the street from the White House is
where they did this fucking organized
drug deal.
It's on Google.
That's not a conspiracy either. So, so koala i have a question for you
um we're we're we're here for for a sesh space but also is there any way that we're going to be
able to to have the cushlings nft as your first NFT? Am I able to onboard you into this?
No, I don't think I'll be doing NFTs.
I'm sorry.
I'm one of those people that truly,
like I said,
I just have not dived into it
as far as research goes.
I'm sorry if this is like
an ignorant statement.
every experience that I have heard of
and that I've experienced,
it is just not,
like my friends trying to go through
NFTs and crypto crypto I just haven't
seen it be
I'll butt in again
did you just say you're looking for an NFT
partnership or some shit like that?
no no no we're doing cannabis space
questions right now you guys
let's ask cannabis questions please
that's where we're
at right now well I'll just reframe what you were saying
what are y'all smoking i got some alaskan blueberry but i ran out
that is a really good one i've never had that homegirl tried that before
yeah i've never had had alaskan blueberry i've had an alaskan yeah there's also alaskan
thunderfuck that one's pretty famous oh yeah i've heard i've heard of that i haven't had that either
but uh i've never heard of alaskan blueberry i have to have to search that one out
i'm sure there's kentucky fried any flavor of weed you want also koala what are you smoking on um i had a blunt right before
we jumped on here because i didn't know if we were going to be smoking or not so i had
a little secret cookies that was rolled up in some slab woods oh my gosh that sounds slap
yeah it's a blunt rap it's a blunt slap
like i've heard of backwoods not slapwoods oh i have another question um okay so how did you get
so good at growing those huge monstrous blunts those are my absolute favorite and every time
i see your video on the tl and i see one of those like those blunt videos I'm like it's not gonna fit she's she's not gonna do it it's not gonna and
then you do it every time and it's perfect how do you do it I appreciate that um I just try to
shove as much weed as I can in the blunt wrap just because when I first started smoking blunts
like it was because I was trying other people's blunts.
And I've noticed that like I would get super lightheaded if the blunt was thinner because the weed to the nicotine ratio just off for me.
Like it's too much nicotine.
I just can't handle that.
So that's honestly the reason why I shove so much flour into my blunt wraps.
Like I'm so blessed that this is my job.
I get access to so much amazing flour.
I want to consume it. I want to, you know, take it all in and enjoy it.
And so the best hit for me, like what makes me feel good is when there's just like way more weed than the nicotine flavor so it doesn't
overpower it.
Now let's take a hit to Charlie Kirk's death.
They're paying you to shill weed on Twitter?
Yes. That's fucking awesome, man. Take a hit to Charlie Kirk's death. They're paying you to shill weed on Twitter? Yes, so I...
That's fucking awesome, man.
Dream job.
It's awesome, for sure.
Have you...
You haven't, like...
You think you'll be able to meet, like, Be Real or some cool shit like that?
I have already worked with Be Real a few times.
You have? Dude, I believe it.
That's sick as fuck. Is he cool?
Yeah, he's a super, super nice guy.
For sure. I totally believe it, dude.
I mean, I don't know. Some people that make
good music are actually pieces of shit behind
closed doors, like Charlie Puth,
apparently.
But, no, dude, Be Real is real.
Or at least Eminem vouched for him.
I don't know.
I like Eminem.
I like his old music better.
Can I ask who's talking?
Because my Twitter's not showing me.
The gentleman.
I'm anonymous.
It's Noah.
Maybe not.
I was anonymous, I thought.
It lets you listen anonymous, but then it lets you hit the mic button.
And that'd be kind of silly if it was letting me talk and y'all don't even get to know who's talking.
It's like ghost mode.
Yeah, bro.
Is my name really not popping up?
Well, it's just showing the host, co co-host and then me as a speaker and everyone
else's listeners it's just my my exes you know have xbx i'm uh noah at noah 420 burn on twitter
and telegram you guys can at me follow the project if you want i'm honestly i'm trying
to prevent world war three dude and hopefully get to go to Mars, too. That'd be fun.
All right.
I'm not even making this shit up, dude.
No, we definitely need to go to Mars.
And I want to tell you guys right now that I think space weed would be amazing.
It would just be... What about alien weed?
Have you seen Paul?
So I know a project that actually sent seeds to space, and they going to like circle and then come back, recover them, plant them and like study the whole space process.
You know what I'm saying?
And but the capsule got lost on recovery.
So they're going to shoot it up again like here sometime next year or whatever.
But yeah, so space week coming soon.
Stay tuned. Hell yeah, dude. I'm writing that down. Hold up. to shoot it up again like here sometime next year or whatever but yeah so space weed coming soon stay tuned
