Filmmaker Brandon Guiles joins us for a laid-back sesh where we talk creative struggles, favorite stoner flicks, why $50K cameras aren't worth it (yet), and swap spooky stories—including the time a ghost allegedly haunted our studio. We also touch on improv acting, cannabis paranoia, and the magic of bad horror movies. Whether you're lighting up or just chilling out, this episode is one big vibe.
