    Innovations in Pre-Roll Technology #158

    At MJUnpacked last month. I met Mae, the tradeshow manager for DaySavers who introduced me to some innovative technologies when it came to the production of cannabis smoke products. One product was so innovative, I bought one. In this conversation, Mae walks us through all the products. Companies like Daysavers symbolize innovation, ingenuity, and the power of creating something better, even in a competitive or crowded field like cannabis.

    Emerging Trends in New York Dispensary #156

    Some say that New York is the wild west of cannabis with non-regulated rogue dispensaries popping up like weeds. But what about the legal shops? Having been awarded the 100th Conditional Adult-Use Retail Dispensary (CAURD) license last April by New York State’s Office of Cannabis Management (OCM), TRENDS, a family-owned dispensary, has quickly become a cornerstone of the Queens community. In today's episode, we meet Rodney Carter Jr., owner of ‘Hurricane Fitness’, and Brandon Carter, a business strategist and web developer. We babbled about opening the Trends Dispensary flagship location in Long Island Queens, new products, staffing, and raising capital.
