Smooth, sultry, and as its name promises, velvety. Red Velvet from Buzz Brand isn’t just a pretty bud, it’s a full sensory experience. From the moment you spark up, it coats your tongue with that signature creamy texture that feels almost like coconut oil, leaving behind a subtle sweetness and a soft, lingering calm that’s hard to shake.


Look & Smell:

Dense and beautifully cured, the buds show deep emerald hues laced with rich amber hairs and a blanket of crystal trichomes. The aroma is balanced — slightly citrusy from its limonene punch, with gentle earthy undertones and just a whisper of floral sweetness. No overpowering funk, no candy overload, just smooth elegance in flower form.


Cannabinoid Profile:


  • THC: ~24%

  • CBD: ~1.96 mg/g

  • Minor Cannabinoids: Trace amounts of THCV, CBG, and others contribute to the balanced, full-spectrum buzz.

    This isn’t a high-THC heavy hitter — it’s a refined, functional high that feels clean, even at 24%.


Terpene Breakdown:


  • Limonene: Bright citrus energy that lifts mood and eases tension.

  • Beta-Caryophyllene: Adds a grounding spice and mild body relief.

  • Myrcene: Smooths the edges, deepens relaxation.

  • Humulene & α-Pinene: Minor terps that bring clarity and focus.


Experience:

Red Velvet hits like its name, soft, smooth, and comforting. The inhale glides in easy, with zero harshness or throat bite, and the exhale leaves your mind steady while your body unwinds. Expect a clear-headed, easygoing high that lets you think, create, or just vibe without feeling foggy.


Perfect for those slow, thoughtful evenings or creative sessions when you want to stay grounded but lifted. This hybrid leans slightly indica in feel, a gentle calm without the couchlock.


Pair it with:

A low light, your favorite vinyl, or that one friend who actually gets your jokes.


Buzz nailed it again — quality craft flower with purpose and personality. Red Velvet is a reminder that cannabis doesn’t have to knock you out to leave a lasting impression sometimes it’s the smooth ones that stick with you.

(00:08):
Welcome to Cannabis School. I'm your host, Jesse Angeles.
And I'm Brandon Elder. And we're here to talk to you
about everything pertaining to cannabis from vape flour,
edibles, strains, and everythingin between.
Welcome back, guys. Hey, hey, hey.

(00:29):
We got another strain today. Yeah.
And this one comes to us from Buzz.
This is a beehive. Brand cannabis mm hmm Utah
product. It's pretty fantastic.
You know, we had Bijon on here. Big shout out to Bijon, Master
Roller and man just. A best roles I've seen and ever

(00:49):
ages, yeah. Ever I I've never experienced.
I mean and. I've never smoked one like that
until then. You know what it looked like One
of those like machined ones. It did, yeah.
But it smoked way better than those.
Hands down it was the best smoking joint I've ever smoked.
It was like that video I sent you of that company that does
nothing but pre rolls with theirmachinery and stuff.

(01:11):
And I all I thought was, but that shit doesn't smoke as
smooth as the ones that Brandon rolls are these odd rolls.
And it's like, you know, it's like that the cowboy 1 you
rolled for me, man, I got to tell you it was good.
I I I smoked half of it, put it out, put it right by the back
porch, came back like hours later and finished it off and it

(01:32):
was it was quite impressive. It's such a a really good
feeling man to to smoke a joint.And that's the weird thing.
I get less cough on it, but red velvet.
I remember when we originally smoked this with Dijon and while
we talked, we were just like, dude, we got to get this on an
episode because this is pretty cool.

(01:54):
It's a good it. It's just a unique sensation I
would say. Oh, and the flavor, it did
really have that velvety kind offeel on the tongue.
Yeah. Yeah, it's, it's quite
impressive, but you know, looking at it.
So it's pretty low THC. It's like 24% THC.
It's not crazy high. It does have very small minor

(02:17):
CBD and it was like point O 8 orsomething.
Oh, no, no, here we go. CBDA 1 milligram.
Oh yeah. So about CBD or CBG 12
milligrams per milligrams per gram.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. CBG 1.96 milligrams per gram,
then THCV delta 9 THCTHCAACBCA. So there are several minors in

(02:42):
that throughout here and then just the terp list is the entire
length of the entire package. But yeah, I don't know.
I wish that they do it in a weird way on the packaging that
I don't like because it makes ita pain in the ass to find like
the top terp. Sometimes it actually is
limiting. Limiting is the top terp, then
Beta Carefalene, then Mira. See a little.

(03:05):
So is it a hybrid? Yeah, it's a hybrid, yeah.
That funny? I'm not getting anything.
Yeah, I can flavor. I get a lot of flavor.
Yeah. The the funniest thing about
about strains now, as long as we've been doing it now when you
start naming off terps, I'm like, oh, that's that's a
sativa, oh, that's indica. Oh, that's a hybrid.
Usually when you see like Lenolol or lemonine and then

(03:29):
followed by beta carophiline or miracine, it's typically a
hybrid. Yeah.
But then it's also got humaline,I mean, and then a million of
them that are under 1 milligram per gram.
But all the biters, yeah, like some of them I've never even
heard of. Trans Narrow it all.
Well, they're still. Beta.
Taurus, I understand. Yeah.
Alpha C Drain. Yeah, those are ones that I've

(03:53):
not actually been familiar with.So we'll have to do another
episode maybe where we go into alittle bit more terpenes here.
Yeah, terpenes are such a massive feel, but it's it's like
what we talked about, you know, when we talked with Doctor Dana
just just the other day, you know, it's really more pay
attention not to the strain typeor strain.

(04:14):
It's the terps. That COA, what does it show?
You yeah, like there, there are products that are really minimal
and you know, it's, it's hard. I you were talking about that.
There's a list of shit that's onthere and you're like, yeah, I
wish they did this better. I think they're doing that just
to get everything out there. But it it's really hard to

(04:37):
educate the, I mean most consumers.
I would say there's about 20 terpenes on this. 20 terpenes
listed and how many people when they look at that are going to
understand what the fuck 90% of these are.
Now, what that you could do if you are a frequenter of chat and
not in a search way, but more asa tool, you can take picture

(04:58):
going, hey, I'm using this strain because I need to chill
out with all the terpenes in this.
What would it do for me? And it would explain all of them
for you. And maybe we should do that for
a show. We'll do it for a few of them
and we'll just go through it because that's one thing that
it's really hard to know and that's where I start seeing
because buzz is typically a low THC.

(05:22):
A very good quality. Very good quality, but it's
just. There's that velvety feel on my
tongue now. Yep, this doesn't give you
cotton mouth. I had a weird thing last night.
I've been doing edibles a lot more during the day.
Yeah. And wasn't it has, it's just
slight and it keeps me in the mode.

(05:42):
I'll have like 1/3 of a 50 and then another third and then
another third throughout the day.
So I slowly get a now of THC andand all the other cannabinoids
throughout my day but I'm not overly high sometimes I did one
time where I eat a little too much.

(06:04):
My phone calls were fun. Oh, those are the best.
Those are the best ones. And today, honestly, we're using
the stores and pickle Volcano hybrid.
This is one of the best like dryer desktop vaporizers.
Now it's pretty big. It's not something that that is
like convenient you can carry around.
You can, but if you have a designated area that you're

(06:25):
going to be sitting having a sash, it's great for that.
And this product leaves you witha lot of that already already
vaped flour. And when you've got that, you
can make all sorts of nifty products like bombs, tinctures,
edibles. Bombs are amazing, you know,
Brandon makes his bomb and it, it's a go to for me whenever I'm

(06:45):
feeling pain. Actually with both stuff like
there was a woman at my work shehad was she, she did have
scoliosis really bad. So.
Yeah, curvature of the spine. So she actually had it
corrected. Her parents had it corrected.
At 14, she was in. It must have been really bad
then. Walkers.

(07:06):
OK, Yeah. And a back brace.
That's crazy. And so.
Does it hurt now still? Her whole back is a zipper.
Oh God, because oh, the way the spine has to be to straighten
her out and. Then they put like metal into
it. So I had that stick, bomb stick
from bow and she was talking. She's like, Oh yeah, it gets

(07:27):
really bad around this time of year.
And I'm like, oh, so I grabbed it and I just said, Hey, you
should try this. And she's like, and I'm like,
just keep it. And she goes and I'm like, I
haven't used it yet. And she goes, oh, and I'm like,
rub it on the hurt and then let me know what happens.
It's like the only way you know you're going to know that it
doesn't work because if you don't fucking try it.

(07:48):
And she's like, all right, why not?
Next day she came home and she was like, that was a lifesaver.
She said that was amazing. And this guy Scott is an old
school dude in there. He was talking about it and he
and this is a good idea. This is kind of great from
Doctor Dana because I was talking with him and I'm like,
you know, like there's some really good cannabis problems
that he goes, oh, I don't want to get high.
And I'm like, you know what? It's so funny is like, if, if

(08:11):
that was the case, do you think I'd be smoking?
Anymore, right? Rubbing that all over.
Yeah, if I could just rub it on go oh fuck yeah, I'm high now or
my back pain instantly like gone.
And yes, there is times that it does help a lot, but there's
things that it just doesn't quite get to.
But that's why other forms of cannabis are way better for

(08:32):
certain things. That's why I feel like this is
like a God-given gift because what does it do man?
It makes you slow down. By the time you finish smoking a
joint, bong, the vaporizer, a dab or whatever it is, things
start to slow down and you can think and you go, why am I
stressing about that bullshit? Just going to let that go.

(08:55):
Like I, I, I don't know, man, like our world is full of just
except our listeners. Everybody's chill here.
But you know, it's funny is thatyou see all this, this division.
Yeah, a lot of extreme. But you know, you don't see
divisions is in a in a place like yours place like mine got
yourself stores and Bickel volcano.

(09:17):
Or maybe you've got the mighty or the.
Vt or even the VZ. Yeah, if you've got if, if
you've been able to grab the VZ.And if you don't have one, I
totally forgot guys, we have a code in the show notes so you
can get a discount on stores andPickles.
Yeah. 'Cause that's AI mean.
Honestly, it really does matter what you're using now.

(09:40):
Now you've heard your, you've heard us talk about joints and I
honestly, it's it's a art. And but once you got it down, I
mean, I know there's a lot of our listeners that are just
like, yeah, dude, joints all theway.
I knew AI know a guy and he's like, that's all I do.
You know what I've been considering, actually.

(10:01):
What? Getting the glass tips, the
reusable cleaning. Oh dude that would be dope.
Yeah, 'cause I've started to seesome that are like rolled
gorgeous. They look like the ones Bijan
did, but with a glass tip and they're fat and they're, they're
long and I'm like. Dude, that would be cool because
one, it would cool down the air and it's already cool enough.
Like I've noticed that when smoking a joint with the filter,

(10:24):
it's so smooth and so enjoyable.Oh man, like, and Speaking of
smooth and enjoyable, I really like Velvet.
It's a very smooth and enjoyableexperience.
Yeah, Red. Velvet is a it is more of an
indica leaning hybrid. I will.
Tell you that just that it's chill.
Super chill, very relaxed. It is getting my heart racing a

(10:48):
little bit, but that's OK. Humiline tends to do that to me,
so it's OK. It's not, it's not extreme.
I just feel pressure here, whichmeans that my my.
Mind's pretty slow, I was tryingto feel my heartbeat if it was
feeling fast or not, but it's actually pretty slow.
Right now, it's because Brandon doesn't have heart.

(11:08):
True, I was actually, I mean my,my average resting heart beats
like 59 to 65. Well, not mine.
It's always going, but the feeling is is it settles in real
nice. And when you think of velvet,
velvet, soft, comfortable, smooth, you just got to keep

(11:29):
touching it. Yeah.
Yeah, and it feels like that right where you are.
I mean the tongue is weird. It's that velvety tongue.
Yeah, it's so weird. It's so you feel the softness of
your tongue. You really do like.
Like I'm very, very hyper aware of my tongue within my mouth

(11:50):
that. Weird.
Yeah, normally I'm not. I'm not hyper aware of my
tongue, No. And it's like the feeling.
It's almost. Like tongue itself.
It's almost like your mouth is got like a coating of coconut
oil. Maybe it's like it feels like
it's enveloped in something, butit's just.

(12:10):
Not like you're normal. Like even if you smoke like a
dab, you know how you get that little bit?
Oh yeah. 'Cause I mean, it's just, no, it
doesn't 'cause that goes away pretty quickly.
This. Coffee.
No, not. At all.
It's very smooth. The flavors are unique like.
Super mild. Yeah, very subtle.
Not not cheesy, not overly fruity, not like crazy earthy.

(12:33):
Very mild. Some hints of sweetness, but not
a lot. There's just that velvety
smooth. Yeah, 24% THC is not, not
anything to stick your nose up at.
And it used to be that was high.And I'm, I'm glad that I'm
seeing more and more individualsthat are like, hey, as long as
it doesn't have high THC, I'm down like a friend of mine that

(12:57):
I, I know he was able to get some of this wing wig cut that
we had had, right. And he was like, well, can you
tell me about it? And I'm like, low and slow.
Slow, Yeah. And he goes, really?
And I'm like, yeah, Because thisone's a different type of Sour
Diesel that I've ever had. It was stronger than any any
Sour Diesel I've ever had. Yeah.

(13:17):
It was like kind of made me dopey sometimes.
So, and this is kind of what made me think of is that Wing
wing cut is grown in the mountains of the East Coast over
in New York and obviously there's a New York City Sauer
diesel. But I wonder if just the
genetics are so different with like the terpene profile or

(13:38):
cannabinoid profile on that one,that it is just way different,
like the experience itself. Just like, holy shit, you know,
low and slow. Yeah, low and slow, definitely.
But it's this one though, man, it's kind of reminded me of that
time where we were were smoking with Bijan, just going from
joint to joint. And the one thing I do enjoy

(14:02):
about the buzz cuts, it's that it's very, all of them have been
very social strains. Yeah.
They're. No weird displacing.
There was that one. What was that?
Oh. Slurty 3 It was just.
Man, it was a weird. And it they were said it was the
highest terps, but yet it still tasted like hay.

(14:22):
And we had a comment they're like, oh, Yep, it was because it
wasn't cured. I'm like, yeah.
It wasn't cured properly, yeah. The hay flavors.
And you know, that's kind of thestandard with it.
I mean, unless you've got a really good craft grow or it's
overflow from some amazing grow out there on the West Coast.
I don't often notice many hay flavors though unless it's lower

(14:46):
quality brand. So what was?
Wow, like trying. To see yeah, like Trike, it was
kind of surprising to see that. Trike has, I mean there's some
decent strains they have, you know, dry and all that, but I
really like the attention to detail that that beehive goes
through to make sure that you are getting high quality soft.

(15:09):
I mean, if it's dry, you'd say, hey, could I get another one?
And they will not say a thing toyou.
They'll be like, Yep, no problem, yeah.
This is a clear headed strain for being a hybrid and like that
general and relaxing. Yeah, yeah, it kind of goes to
man where, you know, and, and I'm not saying anything, I love
dragonfly strains. I mean, when you smoke

(15:30):
dragonfly, you know you're smoking dragonfly.
But what I really like about this one is that Bijan has his
hand in every single grow that goes out there, and you can tell
he doesn't want to be obliterated for somebody who
uses that all the time. And he's thinking about the
patient. Because I love this.

(15:50):
Because I'm like, dude, we couldsmoke this all day and I
wouldn't. I don't think I would be like, I
would just be so relaxed. Like this strain just makes me
feel like velvet. Yeah, it feels amazing.
And I hey, you know, hats off again, you know, to to beehive.
Great, fantastic. I love the flavors.

(16:13):
I love the feel. Yeah, the way that my body
almost feels like my tongue at the same.
Time like velvety smooth and. Yeah, everything.
Like could you imagine getting amassage on this?
Yeah, I'd love. That, Oh my God.
But not just like flour on like a two, No, I'm like a 500
milligram edible. Well, and then I I can only

(16:35):
imagine what this might do. I mean, and and you know, we had
Bo on Bo Euler, amazing person. Listen that episode.
Crazy. It was such a good episode.
The the worst like I not the worst part.
Bo has such an incredible story.We barely scraped even.
Yeah, to bring him back on. Nothing.

(16:56):
And I was just like, oh man, I feel like we didn't have enough
time to give you justice. But I feel like he needs needs
just more time than a couple hours.
Oh, we'll need a Part 2, maybe even a Part 3, like, 'cause
it's, it's really cool to hear that.
And it was like Doctor Dana too,like, you know, I had to go.
And, but it was like, I, I wanted to keep talking to her,

(17:17):
her, her vibrance, her youthfulness, her energy.
And I, dude, it made me like, I was like, dude, we got to go and
like just be there. I actually really thought about
because my parents did assisted living and I helped them do it
for a couple years and that as it got started and and I truly

(17:38):
did care about like. The people in there, why not?
Yeah, absolutely. And I, as she was saying that
I'm like, man, I know there is that that struggle of working
with a home or finding a home that would be willing to have
their caretakers prescribe cannabis or, you know, not
prescribe but give cannabis as amedicine because.
Or allow them to have it as a medicine.

(18:00):
Yeah. But again, then like she said,
it's the self-care facilities are slightly different because
they can kind of manage meds maybe on their own versus having
a self like. Well, and that's why, you know,
families need to be more involved.
You know, it made me think about, you know, and I always do
this, but you ever think about those commandments of Adasha,

(18:21):
honor thy father and thy mother,and what do they typically
think? It's just you got to obey them.
But if you think about honoring,what does that mean?
Remembering care, right? Like.
What you do? Expecting.
When you do that, man, you were honoring that.
And that's where I think a lot of people kind of go.
Well, my life is too busy. You know, like your dad, He

(18:42):
cares for his mom. Yeah.
You know, I care for my wife andmother.
Yeah. I mean, early.
I mean, she's, she's very, she'sbeen there.
For four or five. Years.
Five years, like she's not goinganywhere.
No, but you're only 46. So it's gonna be a while.
Yeah. And even then I'm thinking
about, you know, we're honoring her for that reason.

(19:05):
And that's why I think like, it's so cool when you start to
peel it back, you think about it.
It's not like all this obedient shit they're taught.
It's just like, hey. And it kind of goes along with
the the second one, right? Loving it.
It really is that. And what I thought, like when
she was talking, I thought aboutthat.
I was like, man, she really is doing this amazing.

(19:27):
Just caring for them in a way. What the?
True meaning of a missionary would be like she's on a mission
and spreading this word of helping these people to go, hey,
you can live a youthful life again without pain, anxiety, and
you could actually act like a child instead of a grumpy old
fucker. Yeah, I don't want to be a
grumpy old fucker. No, I don't either.

(19:49):
I don't think either one of us have.
I don't think we're in danger ofthat, no.
By that time, we're going to be so fucking cavalier with this.
We'll have that shit grow into the back.
We're. On a bowl too.
This stuff is good. I talked to my mom yesterday.
She came by and I was talking toher for quite a while and I
actually talked to her about theepisode with Doctor Dana and I,
I challenged my mom and I was like, mom, I really would love

(20:11):
you to find a way that we can incorporate this in your life on
the daily. Good for you.
I said I don't want you to be high because I know that's not
what you're looking for, but I want to find out what that looks
like for you, Whether it's CBGCBNCBD like some type of
being or micro dosing of THCI. Want to find a way that we can
navigate her sleep, that we can navigate her anxiety, that we

(20:34):
can, you know, navigate her painand stuff and just make her
quality of life better? Yeah, no, I mean, my, my mom and
her husband, they, they consume on the regular.
They're she's retired now and he's disabled.
Yeah, they're out in the mass, Yeah.
Yeah, go look up my mom, Joan, Joan Terrell, and give her some

(20:58):
love because she's a can of mom and.
Or can of grandma. Can of grandma, dude.
And she's awesome, dude. I'm gonna tell you, dude, my
mom, she, she sounds the same. While you're talking, are you
puffing? I'm sorry, Mama.
That's OK, I just keep getting excited because this is so tasty
and I really actually enjoy it's.

(21:19):
Barely coming out. It's just at the beginning of
the ball. Yeah, but my mom, Joan Terrell,
go there. Because, you know, what's cool
is that my mom, when I talk to her, she's youthful and she's so
with it. Yeah.
And I'm not trying to say that people in their 60s can't be
with it, but I talked to other people in their 60s who don't
use cannabis, and I got to tell you, they're not really with it.

(21:40):
They're they're slower. They're less open to new things.
My mom's always down, dude. My mom knows technology.
I don't have to bug her. She didn't go.
Yeah, but she's also works in tech too.
Yeah she worked in tech but it mean at the same time like.
But there's a lot in that generation.
Who? But she's always learning shit.

(22:00):
Because my I laugh about it because both of my parents
struggle with technology. Yeah, We had a computer in our
home since I was three. They were using those computers
since I was 3. And before that, they used to
computers in school some in thatlike it wasn't new, IT was new,
but they grew up through those stages of it going.

(22:20):
They built worked like all of these things.
So they should know how to. And then now it's surprising
when they have no idea what to do with something simpler like
OK, have you tried turning it off and back on again?
You know what's actually funny is that when this is really
funny. So my work has incorporated this
amazing tool. It's super cool, dude.

(22:44):
What's that? It's, it's an, it's a walled
garden for AI. So at the core of it is, is
open, but what it uses is all ofthis data from over 500,000
clients of our company and it puts it all into there.
So when you're talking it, it used to be like you put it in

(23:05):
there and it'd help you kind of produce a quote.
Now what it does like, and it's funny because nobody else,
everybody else is like, well, how do you use it?
And I'm like, you fucking talk to it and they go, no, no, no,
but what do I say to it? And I'm like, oh, watch.
And before we even had like we had nationwide training
yesterday morning for an hour and a half on it and I didn't

(23:28):
even everybody else who had their laptops open.
I'm like, I'm not even fucking with this.
It's just. Chat.
But The thing is, is that it realized that again, it is very
small percentage of people who actually know how to utilize it.
And, and the only reason why I'msaying that it's not like we
figured it out, It's because we've let go of the complexity
of it. It is literally like, it's like

(23:48):
wanting to write a fantasy you'dlike, well, you could do this.
You go, I want to write a fantasy novel and I want you to
help me come up with some ideas of how I could create that.
And and I want you to incorporate the Ninja Turtles
and Beavis and butt head. And I mean, I could do that 100%
and it will start to create this.
And then we can start like what Michelangelo would say he's like

(24:11):
the the statue of David was always there.
I just had to clear away the revenge, and that's what it is
like. And when I'm listening to them,
they're like, oh, this is so cool.
But then we had to go through these presentations every week.
Like it's very involved. They want to make sure you're
successful and no micromanaging,just push.

(24:31):
That's always nice. Like my boss came up to us and
goes, hey, your calls are at this and I'm like, yeah, I'm
going to get it done before the end of the week.
Hey, you got by Friday, dude, don't leave until it's done.
And I was like, dude, that's awesome.
Not like, hey, coming up on numbers, really like it if you
got them. Yeah, when you have the whole
week, kind of love that shit. Jesus Christ, that's what she

(24:53):
said. Oh, but for you.
But dude, it's so cool because Iwas sitting there and This is
why I was super cool is when, and I really think that cannabis
has something to do with it. I think that those who use
cannabis in the creative space and then they use it and they
use strains like this. Yeah.

(25:14):
How much shit have you created, dude?
Just chipper jabbering. You know, I I actually don't
think about it sometimes becauseI just think about like, oh, I'm
just doing stuff. Not look at I'm working, I'm
doing, I'm creating. I don't think about often times
about cannabis school about like, oh hey, no, I feel this

(25:36):
like cannabis school like our Instagram.
We just hit over 100,000 followers just on Instagram
finally, but I don't think aboutthat half the time.
It's just like it's. Just something you do.
And then I and I thought about that and I was like, well, what
does that even mean? 100,000 followers?
Like what do you do? What does that change?
And I'm like absolutely fuck all.
But it's the thing I think aboutman is and, and just so you guys

(25:58):
know, Brandon is the brains behind that.
It's it's 100,000 people now that are following because
there's something that brings them in there, right?
I love our social space because it's a lot of, of a lot of jokes
and a lot of funny things. And you know what, like people
go, Oh, that's Stony. And I had to explain it to

(26:19):
somebody at work because she goes, Oh, that's Stoner stuff.
And I'm like, actually, it's being a child and and I, I and
she's like, well, and I tied it to her biblically, which I do
now all the time. And I'm like, here's the reason
why I said what did what did Jesus say?
He said bring the children to me.
You want to be a child if you want to be close to me.

(26:40):
Yeah. What the fuck?
Dude, I mean, you know what I realized it is?
It's not giving any fuck what any other person.
No kid does. I'm not actually caring.
I don't care what that Lady thinks.
Are all that stonier or this? Is this?
Or somebody hangs up on you that's.
Great. That wasn't for you, so I don't
really care. That was for that person who
actually cares. Yes, it wasn't for you.
Yes, I don't give a shit. Like dude, I got hung up on, I

(27:04):
got yelled and I didn't care. It does.
It was. Just like personal.
Well, I thought like how I do inin traffic now I'm like, well, I
hope that guy has a better day, Right, Right.
Yeah, I actually want to call him back on.
And dude, there was a guy on theother and the property casualty
side, I went and stopped to him.We start chatting and he's like,
I actually got a really good, I almost got a really good client

(27:25):
that way. And I'm like, what do you mean?
Because I was telling him I called the lady back and I said
because she hung up on me and I go, hey, we got disconnected
there before we get everything scheduled.
So which works better for you, mornings or afternoons?
Click. I'm like, all right, we're good.
But. And I heard it in a book and I
was like, fuck it, she's alreadymad.
Oh yeah, but this guy said the. Worst thing you're going to do
is hang up again, yell at you. Like dude, this I, I don't know

(27:49):
if this guy consumes or not, butit sure as shit feels like it
because he called the guy back because the guy, he said
something about his website or something like that.
And the guy goes, you know what,fuck you and hung up on him.
He calls him back and he goes, hey, man, no, no, he text him,
hey man, real sorry about that. Are you OK?

(28:09):
And guy goes, you know, it's just been one of those days.
I totally get that, man. And my intent wasn't to offend
you. I'm so sorry about that.
And the guy, he got them all theway up to the end.
They almost closed them. And it was just like, you know,
it kind of made me think about, like when we're always thinking
about ourselves, we tend to fallshort.

(28:30):
When we take it personally too. Yeah.
And, and, and if we don't get something by a certain period of
time, then we go fuck I, I, I mean, it was like the end of
this week. One of one of my friends at
work, Rocco, cool dude, dude. He set like 7 appointments this
week. It sounds like a good week.
Dude, the system only allows youto log 6.

(28:53):
Oh wow. And then it goes, you just maxed
out. He goes, actually, that's seven.
And they're like, no, you can only do 6A week.
What? And well, this is it was a good,
important thing. And it and, and my boss, Jeff,
he's, he's really, he's very like philosophical in a way when
it comes to sales. Very, very nuanced, very
nuanced. And he said, yeah, that's great,

(29:17):
he got all those, but what are you going to do in three months?
What? Does he mean?
You got all of these set up great, and you figured out a
system on how to find the right ones, but there's also other
ones out there that you're not reaching.
And what they're trying to do this is, I wish that other
companies had kind of got this, but, and they got this over a

(29:40):
long period of time. It wasn't overnight.
But what they do is they go, this is the amount of calls that
you need to hit every week in order for you to be successful.
It's the amount of appointments you need to set.
And so the only thing they're doing is instead of you having
to like forage and find and all that, they give you every tool
imaginable. They give you a load of training
to feel very confident to talk about what you're talking about,

(30:03):
and they just want you you to dogood.
It never feels like, hey, this is your fucking job.
Can you elaborate on that? Because you were saying what's
he going to do in three months? Like yeah, he's set 7, but can't
he still continue doing what he's doing and well.
Here's the thing. They give us 300 leads.

(30:25):
And he'll burn through his leads, is what they're.
Fast, all of his good ones and the other ones that he's not
paying attention to still has anopportunity.
This really good author, Jeb Blunt.
Blount. It's Blount, but I'm going to
say Blunt. Definitely blunt.
Blunt, but he is a really good mindset and structured sales

(30:47):
guy. He doesn't have the answers.
He just says, look, if you perform these actions, you're
going to do really well and here's ways to get your mindset
around it and he talks about that.
He's like, the more I prospect, the luckier I get, and I think
about that in our lives too. The more I open up to things,
the happier I am, the less I tryto be abrasive to things or to

(31:10):
be resistant. I just feel like my health goes
to shit my, my life. And dude, honestly, all through
I, I, I was having a discussion with somebody who doesn't know
is CII with me on cannabis. And when we were talking about
it, I was just like, look, I'm until the day I die, till the
day, which is probably going to be a long fucking time, this,

(31:33):
this is truly giving me my life back.
And Doctor Dana, kind of I got that like that whole realization
that you got to do the work withit.
Oh yeah, that hit me there. Well, that's been my realization
slowly over the years of like, hey, I still hurt.
OK, well what am I doing to strengthen myself?
Yes, I hurt, yes, I'm using cannabis.

(31:54):
Try and help with these these pains, but that doesn't solve my
problem. That doesn't strengthen my
structural like support system to help that.
So what am I doing? What?
What other things am I doing aside from just using this tool?
Yeah, and and I mean, and and amI treating it like that?

(32:17):
Yeah. Because like last night I had AI
mean it was it was a good week. I worked hard, things were
accomplished, but I kept my faculties.
I didn't, I didn't flip out whenbig things happened in my life,
but shit worked out, bro. I we got the money.

(32:37):
It didn't have to come out of mycheck.
Your car's back too. Yeah, I mean, but it were, I
mean, and and I wasn't like, youknow, I wasn't trying to do the
stereotypical what I I see of people, you know, wishing or
praying to give it to me. Just like all I kept thinking,
I'm like, you know what, as longas I stay the course, I keep
doing what I'm doing. Look for opportunities to help

(33:00):
other people. Stop thinking about yourself and
other that will get taken care of.
And it really has been, I think about that like the less we have
hostility in our home in any way, shape or form, things just
start working out better. You've seen that.
Or even in our lives if we don'thold on to that.
It was like this doctor, I was watching some video the other

(33:23):
day and they were talking about how our brains like the
neuroplasticity plasticity within them.
If we think about negative things and look for the negative
things, it will actually start training our brain to
automatically start looking moreonly for these negative things
and finding more negative. Things so it.

(33:43):
Keeps us in this insult. So if that's what you're doing,
if you're just training your brain to find positive things
and good things in your life, even the smallest, stupidest
thing, hey, I ate breakfast today.
Hey, I took a shit today. Hey, I woke up and I don't hurt
as much today. Hey, whatever it is, Oh, my
power's on. You know any of these?

(34:04):
Things can be. Great fucking things in our
lives, but because they're always there, we take it for
granted so much. And it's like, if we can wake up
in that and remember that, well,maybe we can train our brain to
see all of these great things. And then instead of living in
the negative world, we're livingin a positive world, a love
failed world, because that's what we're exuding, because

(34:26):
that's what we're thinking about.
Well said, man, Well said. Because I like that because it's
it's really easy to get caught up into what you don't have.
And when you look at everything like, you know, Brandon and I,
we, we, we, we do this. We've been doing this for years
in an old add on garage. It's so cool too cause the

(34:50):
downstairs it's like the apartment outside downstairs
apartment and it's so cool. Like it literally is like the
set of friends. Yeah, so be unique.
It's so crazy, like you got all these like cool paintings and
all of them have a story behind it and there's a day when that
happened and I. Got really high in painted this.

(35:11):
I got really high in painted this.
Well, but, but also like from your kids have done things and
other friends have done things. Emily's done things in here, you
know, like that guy over there at The Cave with the sword.
Like I, I see him and I'm like, you know, sometimes I think
about I, I really do. I think about him and and I

(35:31):
appreciate this art. You know what?
I don't appreciate fancy art. I don't like fancy art.
I don't like, I like old, like Michelangelo Rafael, love the, I
mean the school of Athens. I, I think that frescoes are the
most insanely unique and they'renot timeless.

(35:51):
They're they're on borrowed timeand you you can only enjoy it.
They're like you can't. They've done replicas, but it
was never the same as when it was done on wet plaster.
Like that's insane. And that that's my favorite
piece of art. I have a little, I want a big
one and I want to put it when I get, when I get promoted in

(36:12):
there and I get my office, Yeah,it's going to be in there.
I always see it as and I I see it as a sash of people.
Yeah, the smartest minds gettingtogether to try and figure shit
out. But I used to think it that way
and now I don't think of the smartest minds.
I think of the calmest minds andlet's figure that shit out.

(36:32):
And if we had like 50 of these and a bunch of diplomats get
some shit solved. For reals and if you guys are
struggling solving things, we got a test buddy over here.
Greatest study buddy so far. Synthetics 5.
I don't know what it is about it, but somehow it will help you

(36:53):
pass that test. You know what's great about this
is that it's winter time and you're thinking I don't want to
have something that's cold to help me pass tests.
No. Well guess what?
This little thing warms up and goes in the back and when you
reach the optimal temperature of100°.
I thought it was like 98.6 roughly the rough temperature.

(37:15):
But it's like anywhere between 90 and 100 you can pass this
test guaranteed. Temperature based testing.
Yeah, temperature based. Dude, that's a thing.
So check it out. Synthetics 5.
What is this cost? Well, I already know what it
would cost. Well it doesn't cost actually

(37:36):
that much. It's really worth an insane
amount sometimes like 50,000 a year. 80A. 106 any of those.
He just went through six. He went so fast.
But hey, look, this is really cool.
You you warm it up, you stick itin there into your pocket and on

(37:59):
you go. And if you have to take, you
know, the specialized test whereyou go into one room, cool, you
can do that. But they also have one that is
below the belt in case somebody's watching you take a
test. Below the belt.
So go to Synthetics 5, we got a code.
Check out all the codes below. Yeah, check them out.
Totally worth it, guys. We push it out there just

(38:21):
because. There's no reason why you can't
pass a test just because you enjoy this.
Amazing. Plant exactly.
So hey, we love you guys. Very much and this week.
See you later.
