Today on Up+Adam, we sit down in the Timbre LoBro Studios with Shawn Sherman, owner of Golden Apple Cannabis Company, for a conversation that cuts through the clichés and digs into the real cannabis industry, past, present, and future. Shawn’s been in the game since before legalization, navigating one of California’s most overtaxed and overregulated markets while staying true to his mission: educate the consumer. We talk about why “sativa” and “indica” don’t actually mean what you think, how terpenes are the true drivers of your experience, and why bridging the gap between science, policy, and public perception matters more than ever.
