0:11B: Brondo.

0:12C: Brondo. And what brings you out here tonight, Brondo? Where are we at?

0:15B: We are at Purple Haze in Inglewood off of Brighton. I’m sorry, Broadway. Goodness, sorry, Broadway.

0:22C: It’s all good, it’s all good. And what brings you out here?

0:24B: We brought our flower up so that people could, uh, come up and try samples at the flower bar. We brought some Candy Cake, some Summertime Shootout, some Z Block Frosted Cheesecake, some Number One Stunner, and some Honey Pack.

0:42C: Okay, okay.

0:44B: And, uh, people have been having samples and enjoying themselves. And, uh, the Honey Pack is the flower that people are racing on in the Fastest Gram competition that Bro is hosting over there.

0:57A: And --

0:58B: Okay. The Candy Cake strain right here is what they’re using in the blunt rolling competition behind you. So, um, and then the tall guy dressed in mostly purple over there was, uh, he was walking around with a 6-foot bong with people smoking this strain earlier.

1:21C: Yeah, I saw that 6-foot bong.

1:22B: Oh yeah, it’s impressive. It is. I’m like, oh wait. So we just, we just want to make sure that people have an opportunity to, you know, come to a party, a get-together like this, and smoke on some good flower and and just have a really good time.

1:37C: Hell yeah. So what do you think about the state of cannabis culture?

2:18B: something gets lost along the way.

2:19C: So you have some concerns about Big Cannabis?

2:21B: Primarily, yes. Yeah. Um, I, I don’t think they have the right things in mind. And what I end up hearing from a lot of the people that come to these events is often the same thing.

They’re not giving it what it needs to really develop its terpenes. So you get this ridiculous amount of medicine
