If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything “right”…but something still feels off, this episode is for you.Not burnt out.Not lazy.Just… disconnected.From purpose. From direction. From anything that actually feels real.We start this one talking about that strange feeling cannabis can bring up,like none of this is new, like life has happened before, just in a different version.But it turns into something deeper.Because somewhere along the way, “progress” stopped meaning fulfillmentand started meaning faster, newer, more.And a lot of people are left sitting there thinking…why doesn’t this feel better?What we get into:Why so many people feel lost right nowHow distraction replaced directionThe difference between making money and having purposeWhy you’re influencing people, whether you realize it or notAnd what it actually means to be a decent human in a noisy worldThere’s also a real conversation around belief systems,not as labels, but as lived behavior.Because it’s easy to say what you believe.It’s harder to live it.Where cannabis fitsNot as an escape.As a moment to slow down and actually look at your life.Not guaranteed. Not the same for everyone.But for some people, it’s where the questions start.The takeawayIf you don’t choose your direction,you’ll end up following someone else’s.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

This one started with a discount eighth and a little suspicion.Bachelor Party by Black Sheep was harvested back in December 2024, so yeah, this was definitely older flower. Usually that’s where expectations start dropping. Dry bud, muted flavor, weaker effects, all the usual red flags. But this one ended up doing something way more interesting. It held up.What kicked this episode off was simple, Jesse grabbed it on sale for $22 an eighth, and we figured we’d see if this older batch was still worth the smoke. Turns out, Bachelor Party had a lot more going on than expected.The flavor came through sweet, a little strange, and honestly kind of unique. There was a terpene in this one we don’t usually see, fenchyl alcohol, which sent us down a rabbit hole about aroma, uncommon terpene profiles, and why some strains hit different in ways you can’t always predict from the label alone.But the real surprise was the effect.This wasn’t one of those strains that punches you in the face right away. It had a slower onset, but once it settled in, it brought this really clear, relaxed, steady headspace. Not heavy in a dumb way. Not racy. Not foggy. Just calm, functional, and easy to ride with. Jesse talked about it knocking him out at night without even realizing it, while I ended up seeing it as something I’d use during the day, for work, hiking, or just hanging out.That’s kind of what made Bachelor Party stand out. It felt flexible. If you’re already tired, it can lean bedtime. If you’re up and moving, it seems to move with you. Clear-headed, mellow, and surprisingly useful.This episode also turned into one of those classic Cannabis School detours, where a strain review becomes a bigger conversation about perception, gratitude, anxiety, relationships, belief, internal dialogue, and how much your mindset shapes your experience. So yeah, this one covers flower, but it also goes way past flower.Bottom line, Bachelor Party was way better than either of us expected, especially for year-old bud. Dry? Yeah, probably. But still flavorful, still effective, and honestly a really solid pickup.If you can find a fresher batch, even better. But based on this one alone, Bachelor Party is worth paying attention to.Strain: Bachelor PartyBrand: Black SheepParent company discussed: Standard WellnessTop terpenes discussed: beta-caryophyllene, limonene, humulene, fenchyl alcoholNotable cannabinoids mentioned: CBC, CBGOverall vibe: clear-headed, calm, flexible, lightly relaxingBest fit from this episode: daytime, work, hiking, hanging out, or winding down if you’re already tiredThis episode is for anyone who’s ever looked at an old jar on sale and thought, “there’s no way this is still good.”Turns out, sometimes the cheap old weed still has a few things to say.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

In this episode of The Sesh, we start with a painfully honest truth, novelty is addictive as hell.Not in the dramatic after-school-special way. In the real-life way. Learning can feel productive. Research can feel productive. Building the perfect system can feel productive. But sometimes it’s just a prettier way to avoid doing the actual thing in front of you.So that’s where this one starts.We get into analysis paralysis, fear of failure, bare minimum habits, and why doing ten simple reps every day beats building some giant perfect plan you’ll never follow. We talk about what happens when your competitive edge fades, why rejection gets easier only after you’ve eaten enough no’s, and how asking for things opens way more doors than most people realize.From there, this one goes where The Sesh always goes, into the weeds in the best way.We get into parenting, connection, service, letting people help you, networking, sales, social awkwardness, work, masculinity, modern comfort, forgotten skills, religion, change, collapse, and why racing games somehow became therapy.It’s funny, scattered, sharp, and way more honest than polished.What we get into:Why learning can turn into avoidanceAnalysis paralysis and the fear behind overthinkingThe power of simple daily repsWhy asking is a skill most people never buildHow rejection changes youCompetition, drive, and what happens when you lose your edgeService, connection, and why receiving help can be harder than giving itThe value of trades, real-world skills, and uncomfortable growthWhy change feels threatening even though life is literally changeHow racing became meditationA bunch of side quests, because obviouslyThis episode is for you if:You keep “preparing” instead of startingYou’ve been stuck in your head and calling it progressYou miss feeling drivenYou struggle to ask for what you wantYou’re good at helping everyone but yourselfYou like conversations that start in one place and end up somewhere way more interestingOne of the biggest takeaways from this one:A lot of us are not actually stuck because we don’t know enough.We’re stuck because doing the simple thing every day is less exciting than building a new theory about our life.That’s the trap.Listen now, then ask yourself:What’s the thing you already know you need to do, but keep replacing with something more interesting?Send us your thoughts, your feedback, and your suggestions for future episodes of The Sesh.

This episode turned into exactly what Sour OG does best, a real conversation.Not scattered. Not stuck. Just clear, relaxed, and actually present.Sour OG sits right in that middle lane. You feel it in your body, but your head stays online. It’s the kind of strain you smoke when you want to talk something out, get into a flow state, or just be a better version of yourself for a couple hours.We felt relaxed, happy, and weirdly productive. Not couch-locked, not racing, just steady.This is a “go do something” strain. Go outside, go think, go connect.What we talk aboutHow Sour OG feels in the body vs the headWhy this one works for conversations and focusThat floaty, chest-centered calm without losing clarityWhy it leans more social and productive than heavyWhere it fits for work, creativity, and getting outsideLineage:Sour Diesel x OG KushTerpenes:LimoneneMyrceneBeta-caryophylleneCannabinoids:THC-dominantMinor cannabinoids can include CBG and trace CBCFlavor & Aroma:DieselEarthySour citrusPineGassy with a smooth kush finishEffects (what you’ll actually feelRelaxed without slowing downClear-headed and focusedTalkative and socialLight euphoriaThat “floaty but functional” feelingKeep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

This one goes everywhere, and honestly, that is what makes it fun.We start with where we were when 9/11 happened, somehow end up in stories from the state hospital, take a hard left into awkward family moments, Utah sex culture, social media brain rot, work stress, gaming, cooking, and the weird ways cannabis helps slow life down enough to actually think.Basically, it is one of those Sesh episodes where the conversation keeps unfolding and somehow still makes sense by the end.Also, Zkittles was along for the ride, and this strain absolutely earned its spot. It kept us relaxed, clearheaded, talkative, and just introspective enough to get honest without going totally off the rails.In this episode we get into:Where we were when 9/11 happenedWhat it was like working in the forensic ward at the state hospitalWhy some childhood and family memories should probably stay buriedUtah, repression, and why nobody gets taught how to communicate about sexHow social media can quietly turn life into something fake and transactionalWhy cannabis can help cut through ego and get you back to what actually mattersThe difference between doing things for numbers vs doing them because they help peopleFood, cooking, convenience, and why feeling good matters more than just being fullGaming rabbit holes, old favorites, and why some new games just are not built the same anymoreWhy good conversation with the right person and the right strain still hits every timeAbout the strain:This episode was powered by Zkittles, and it was a damn good fit.Buzz’s Zkittles out of Utah came in at 21% THC and felt smooth, social, and super easy to ride. It helped take the edge off, loosen up the body, and made this one of those episodes where the conversation just kept flowing.Not too heavy. Not too sleepy. Just one of those strains that makes it easy to sit back, talk, laugh, and actually enjoy where your mind goes.Final thought:Some episodes are polished. Some are planned. And some are just two people following the conversation wherever it wants to go.This one is the third kind.And honestly, those are usually the best ones.Links below.

We sat down with Zkittles from Buzz here in Utah… and ended up doing what this strain does best, getting lost in a real conversation.Not scatterbrained.Not couch-locked.Just dialed in.This one sits in that rare middle ground. You feel relaxed, but your mind is still sharp. You can follow a thought, stay present, and actually enjoy where the conversation goes instead of forgetting what you were saying halfway through.Honestly, it felt like calm and clarity at the same time.What It Feels LikeThis is one of those strains that is tough to label cleanly.You get:A little energyA little body calmA little mood liftA lot of mental clarityIt is not overwhelming in any direction, which is exactly why it works so well.Great for hanging out, catching up, or even talking through real stuff without getting foggy.Flavor + SmellLeans fruity right away. We picked up grapefruit with a sweet citrus edge.Not fake candy sweet, more natural fruit with a little funk behind it.Terpenes (from what we saw at Buzz)Beta-caryophyllene up frontHumuleneLinaloolLimoneneMyrceneThat combo explains a lot of the balanced feel. Calm body, clear head.LineageWhat we saw tied this one to:Grape ApeGrapefruitLike always, strain names can vary depending on who grew it, but that’s the general lane.The ExperienceThis was one of those sessions where time just kind of disappears because you are actually engaged.We went from joking around to real conversations without that weird mental drop-off.It is introspective, but not heavy.Focused, but not intense.Relaxed, but not sleepy.Honestly, this would be a great “talk it out” strain.Quick TakeGood for:ConversationChilling without checking outThinking clearlyLate afternoon or eveningNot ideal if you just want to be knocked out or completely shut your brain off.Final ThoughtZkittles from Buzz is one of those strains that reminds you cannabis does not always have to hit hard to be good.Sometimes it just needs to help you be a little more present.If you are in Utah, this one is worth trying.Let us know what you’re smoking on and what we should try next.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

Three completely different worlds collide in this one.A doctor who walked away from traditional medicine.A nurse who realized she was never taught the full picture.And a Jamaican herbalist who lived cannabis before it was legal and paid the price for it.This episode goes deeper than surface-level cannabis talk.We get into what actually happens when plant medicine meets modern healthcare and why that conversation still makes people uncomfortable.There are prison stories.There are hard truths about the medical system.And there are real questions about what healing actually looks like.The big takeaway is simple:We’ve been looking at this wrong.What We Get Into:Growing up with cannabis before legalizationGetting arrested and still coming back to the plantWhy doctors and nurses are not trained on cannabisThe gap between what we are told and what actually worksPTSD from prohibition and why it still shows upHow cannabis fits into real healthcareWhy one-size-fits-all medicine falls shortThe idea that your body may already be built to use this plantThe Book:Why We Die, How to Live: Beyond Pills & ProceduresThis book breaks down the top causes of death and looks at them through a different lens, one that includes cannabis, lifestyle, and prevention.This is not a one-and-done read. It is something you come back to.Real Talk:This episode is not about hype.It is about asking better questions.Why is cannabis still misunderstoodWho benefits from thatWhat changes when you actually learn instead of just listenGet the Book: https://www.doctorfelecia.comhttps://www.instagram.com/doctorfelecia/Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

What actually makes a strain feel “balanced” instead of just strong?In this episode, we break down Black Triangle, a strain that hits that rare middle ground. You feel it in your body, but your head stays clear. Relaxed without being stuck. Calm without checking out.This is one of those strains that challenges the idea that higher THC automatically means a better experience. Because this one proves it doesn’t.What We Talk About:• Why Black Triangle feels like a true 50/50 hybrid, not just labeled that way• The difference between feeling “high” vs feeling good• How limonene and other terpenes shape the experience more than THC alone• Why this strain makes you more talkative instead of shutting you down• The surprising gap between THC percentage and actual effect• Vaporizer differences and how they impact what you feel• Why some devices hit harder even at the same temperature• A real-world test of how much is “too much” and what that actually feels likeThe Experience (Simple Version):Black Triangle is one of those strains where:• Your body loosens up• Your mind stays sharp• Conversations get easier• You feel present, not spaced outIt is not a couch-lock strain.It is not a jittery head high either.It sits right in the middle and does it well.What Stands Out:The terpene profile matters here.Limonene leads, which likely explains why this feels elevated without anxiety. Then you have support from other cannabinoids like CBD and THCV, which may be helping smooth things out.[Inference] Based on known terpene behavior, this combination leans toward mood support and clarity, not sedation.Who This Is For:• New consumers who want something balanced• Daily users who want to stay functional• Anyone who wants to feel good without feeling goneWhat We’d Skip or Question:There is a moment in this episode where a topical balm is said to cause a strong psychoactive effect.That is not how topicals are generally understood to work.Topicals typically do not enter the bloodstream in a way that causes a full-body high.[Unverified] That experience is anecdotal and likely influenced by other variables, not just the topical itself.Final Take:This is a reminder that cannabis is not about chasing the highest number.It is about how it feels.Black Triangle delivers a calm, clear, social experience that a lot of people are actually looking for but do not know how to describe.Rating: 8/10One of the better balanced hybrids we have had.If you want a strain that helps you stay in the moment without dragging you down or spinning you out, this is one worth trying.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

Some episodes start with a plan.This one absolutely did not.In this episode of The Sesh, Brandon and Jesse light up a bowl of E85 and end up going everywhere. Money stress, bad jobs, business lessons, friendships, pain relief, and the strange way cannabis turns random conversations into meaningful ones.Along the way they break down the strain they’re smoking, share a simple cannabis pain balm recipe, and get into a surprisingly deep conversation about trust, relationships, and why most successful businesses run on one thing: people.Sometimes the best conversations are the ones you never planned to have.And cannabis has a funny way of opening those doors.WHAT WE TALK ABOUT​ The strain E85 and why it hits like a gassy, happy hybrid​ Wedding Cake lineage and how it shapes the experience​ Why joints still feel different from vapes and dabs​ The communal ritual of passing a joint​ Financial stress and digging out of debt​ Learning business through failure​ Why relationship-based sales beats transactional sales​ The idea of “orbit building” and networking through trust​ How friendships become the most valuable currency in life​ Making a simple cannabis pain balm at home​ Why cannabis keeps bringing people togetherSTRAIN REVIEWStrain: E85Genetics: Wedding Cake × Project 5146Type: HybridFlavor ProfileGassySweetCreamyReported EffectsHappyRelaxedSocialUpliftedWhy it stood out in this episode:E85 starts with a noticeable gassy kick but settles into a smooth, happy high that keeps the conversation flowing.

Not all gassy strains come in hot and punch you in the throat.This week on Cannabis School, we break down E85 from Buzz, a gas-forward flower that is way smoother and more balanced than the name might make you think. No, it does not hit like the worst gas station decision you could make for your car. This one is actually pretty damn nice.Using the Storz & Bickel Volcano, we found E85 to be smooth, mild on flavor, and surprisingly easy to enjoy for a gas strain. The aroma leans gassy, but it is not an over-the-top diesel bomb. The flavor stays pretty mellow, and the whole ride feels more polished than harsh.Where this strain really starts to stand out is in the cannabinoid and terpene profile.Top Terpenes:LimoneneBeta-CaryophylleneLinaloolAlpha-PineneBeta-PineneNotable Cannabinoids:CBGA: 10.2 mg/gCBG: 1 mg/gCBD: 0.9 mg/gThat combo matters.Higher CBG and CBGA levels can be especially interesting for people looking at cannabis for daytime pain support, especially in colder months when joints start acting like they are collecting rent. This episode gets into exactly that, how certain strains can help with pain without dropping you on the couch, and why those minor cannabinoids deserve a lot more attention than they usually get.We also get into topicals, homemade balm, tinctures, dabs, vaporizing, and why finding the right cannabis protocol is about way more than just smoking flower and hoping for the best.What We Talk About in This Episode:Buzz E85 and why it is smoother than most gas strainsWhy limonene, caryophyllene, linalool, and pinene make this one interestingHow CBG and CBGA can matter for daytime pain reliefWhy winter makes aches and inflammation hit differentHomemade cannabis balm and the very real impact topicals can haveWhy vaporizing can completely change the experience of a strainThe role of set, setting, and conversation in how a strain landsWhy some strains hit better solo and others shine sociallyConcentrates, tinctures, and dialing in cannabis beyond just flowerUtah cannabis laws and the weirdness around flower, flame, and enforcementHow E85 Felt for Us:This one came across as:EnergeticHappyCreativeFocusedChattySocialSmoothIt has enough lift to keep you engaged, enough calm to stay comfortable, and enough clarity that it feels useful instead of foggy. That makes it a really solid option for a Saturday strain, a social strain, or even a daytime work strain depending on what you are doing.It is not sleepy.It is not heavy.It is not one of those gas strains that makes you regret the inhale.It is just smooth, functional, and easy to like.Best Fit For:Daytime useSocial hangsSaturday errands and projectsCreative sessionsPeople looking for a smoother gas strainConsumers curious about CBG-rich flowerThings to Note:Heavy cottonmouth showed upSlight dry eyesSmooth vapor, very little coughingMild gas flavor, not overpoweringE85 from Buzz is one of those strains that reminds you why looking past THC percentage and into terpenes and cannabinoids actually matters. It is smooth, chatty, mood-lifting, and has enough pain-support potential to make it especially interesting for daytime consumers.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

In this episode of The Sesh, we’re posted up with Sour OG, and we go full rabbit hole, in the best way.We start with Castlevania, metroidvania obsession, Switch OLED upgrades, and why older games still hit harder than half the “new” stuff coming out. Then it turns into a real talk about why people feel more isolated than ever, why connecting feels harder than it should, and why getting comfortable being uncomfortable is basically a cheat code for life.We also get into Days Gone, Zelda, Ghost Recon no-HUD chaos, Ready or Not, British shows, revenge movies that actually slap, and why laughter might be the most underrated mental reset we have.Question for the comments, what’s your favorite random non-US movie or TV show?Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

This week on Cannabis School, we break down Stink by Dragonfly Wellness, a 30% THC Utah medical cannabis flower that hits harder in the lungs than you expect and slower in the head than you think.We cover the cure, dryness level, aroma, and terpene profile, including limonene, beta-caryophyllene, and beta-pinene, and how that combination translates into a peppery, fuel-forward inhale. Big hits will check your ego. Smaller pulls are the move.The onset is slow. Then it builds.Stink lands in a weird middle space. Not sleepy. Not productive. Not locked in. It’s a heady, floaty high with tension in the shoulders and jaw, a subtle spine awareness, and a reflective mental state that makes deep focus hard but self-awareness stronger.This is not your “clean the house” strain.Not your “crush emails” strain.Not your “party with friends” strain.This feels more like:• A solo hike strain• A grounding, barefoot-in-the-yard strain• A disconnect-from-your-phone strain• A slow down to speed up strainWe also talk about how THC percentage does not automatically equal stronger effects, why 18% strains can sometimes outperform 30% flower, and how terpene structure matters more than raw numbers.If you’re searching for:Dragonfly Wellness strain reviewsStink strain reviewUtah medical cannabis flower30% THC cannabis effectsHigh THC heady strainsThis episode gives you the honest breakdown, not hype.As always, start low, know your body, and pay attention to how your endocannabinoid system responds.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

Brandon and Jesse talk concentrates, edible tolerance, and what happens when you take 250mg of Apple Fritter before watching a movie that definitely is not that funny… until it is. They break down how different consumption methods actually feel in real time, from “behind the eyes” pressure to full-body giggles.But then the conversation shifts.They get into cannabis history, why Napoleon reportedly banned his army from smoking in Egypt, and how weed doesn’t exactly inspire battlefield aggression. From there, it turns into a bigger conversation about the scientific method, celebrity scientists, and why real innovation usually comes from the quiet builders nobody talks about.The back half of the episode moves into something deeper. Handwritten letters. Navy memories. Physical mail. Human connection. The idea of Cannabis School pen pals. Why writing something down might be one of the most honest ways to say what you actually feel.It is classic Sesh energy. Funny, unfiltered, reflective, and unexpectedly thoughtful.In this episode we talk about:• Dabbing vs flower and how concentrates hit differently• Taking 250mg of edibles and what that experience actually feels like• Purple Platinum Jager and Apple Fritter effects• Cannabis in world history and Napoleon’s Egypt campaign• Why weed does not exactly make you want to fight• The scientific method and celebrity culture• Handwritten letters and deeper human connection• The idea of Cannabis School pen palsThis episode is less about being right and more about being real. Just two friends, some concentrates, and a conversation that moves from giggles to meaning without forcing it.If you’ve ever had one of those nights where cannabis opens up something deeper than you expected, this one will feel familiar.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

In this Cannabis School strain episode, we review John Truffolta from Dragonfly Wellness, vaporized through the Volcano Hybrid, and break it down the way we always do: genetics, cannabinoids, terpenes, effects, and overall value.GENETICSGelato x Truffle Cake S1 #5 x Blueberry SugarThat lineage suggests sweet, dessert-style flavor with hybrid balance and a slight sativa lean depending on dose.CANNABINOIDSThis batch tested around 26% THC. For Dragonfly, that’s actually on the lower end of what they usually carry.CBD was very low.Minor cannabinoids present in small amounts.Translation: THC-forward. Dose absolutely matters.TERPENESDominant terpenes on this batch:CaryophylleneLimoneneHumuleneCaryophyllene explains the peppery bite and mild body relief.Limonene contributes to the subtle uplift.Humulene brings earthy sharpness.Even with humulene present, this one absolutely triggered munchies for us.APPEARANCE + FLAVORBag appeal was strong. Dense nugs, heavy trichomes, sweet candy notes with a sharp, peppery finish.The issue was dryness.Harvest date was September, with packaging and testing months later. By the time we picked it up, it was noticeably dry. That impacts flavor, vapor quality, and smoothness.

What happens when you stop trying to control life and actually listen to it?In this Sesh episode, we sit down with Mary Ellen Lorello and let the conversation go where it wants to go. No stiff interview energy. No surface-level bios. Just a real back-and-forth about intuition, healing, identity, and the uncomfortable spaces people usually skip over.This isn’t a “tell us about your business” episode.It’s a who are you really, and how did you become that person conversation.We talk about:• What intuition actually feels like versus what people think it is• The difference between spiritual language and lived experience• How trauma, belief systems, and identity shape the choices we make• Why so many people feel disconnected from themselves• What it means to trust your own inner voiceThere are moments in this episode where things slow down. Where the questions sit a little longer. Where the answers aren’t polished, they’re honest.That’s what The Sesh is built for.Mary Ellen doesn’t come in trying to impress anyone. She shares her path, the pivots, the realizations, and the uncomfortable truths that shaped her. And we challenge ideas where they need to be challenged. Respectfully. Thoughtfully. But honestly.This episode lives in the gray.If you’ve ever felt like you’re supposed to have it all figured out but don’t, this one hits. If you’ve ever wrestled with your own belief systems, this one hits. If you’re curious about intuition but skeptical of fluff, this one definitely hits.The Sesh is where we let conversations breathe.No scripts. No performance. Just humans trying to understand themselves a little better.https://www.naturalwellnessacademy.orghttps://www.instagram.com/thebalancedgourmetKeep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

What is Pure Michigan actually built to do?Pure Michigan is not a “wake up and conquer the world” strain. It’s usually a heavy hybrid that leans indica in feel, built more for depth than sparkle.This cultivar is commonly bred from Oreoz x Mendo Breath, which already tells you something. Both parents are known for dense structure, rich flavor, and body-forward effects.From Beehive Farmacy, batch specifics always matter, so check your label. But here’s what Pure Michigan typically looks like chemically.• THC often in the high teens to mid 20 percent range• Very low CBD• Minor cannabinoids like CBG sometimes present in small amountsTranslation: this is THC dominant. If your tolerance is low, it can get heavy fast. This is not a microdose-first strain unless you intentionally keep it that way.Common dominant terpenes in Pure Michigan:• Caryophyllene• Myrcene• LimoneneCaryophyllene is the spicy, peppery terpene that also interacts with CB2 receptors, often associated with body relief.Myrcene leans sedating in higher concentrations.Limonene can add a slight mood lift or brightness.When myrcene and caryophyllene sit high together, you usually get that “deep exhale” body experience. Muscles loosen. Thoughts slow. The edges soften.Not guaranteed. But that’s the tendency.At moderate doses:• Strong body relaxation• Slower mental pace• Warm, heavy calm• Possible couch gravityAt higher doses:• Sleep pressure• Brain fog• Hard pivot into “I’m done for the night”This is typically not a strain people use for high productivity. It leans evening. Recovery. Decompression.Who is this for:• People looking to wind down• Evening use• Body tension• High stress daysWho should be cautious:• Anyone sensitive to sedation• Anyone needing mental sharpness• New consumers jumping straight into large dosesThe real takeaway here is this: Pure Michigan is more about weight than sparkle. If you’re chasing heavy body calm, it usually delivers. If you’re chasing clarity and energy, this probably isn’t your lane.And like we always say, strain names are branding. The batch chemistry is the truth. Always read the COA. Always start lower than you think.Utah cannabis makes more sense when you stop chasing names and start reading numbers.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

This Sesh starts with tone.Not podcast tone. Not branding tone. Real-life tone.The kind that turns “I’m fine” into a full-blown argument.We get into how much of our conflict isn’t about what was said… it’s about how we heard it. And how much of that is just our own insecurity filling in the blanks.Then it spirals, in the best way.We talk about success. Not the Instagram version. The real version.Is it money? Status? A title?Or is it being at peace driving a beat-up car and actually liking your life?We bring up people like Logan Paul and Keanu Reeves and why one gets constant heat while the other feels untouchable. Is it fame? Or is it how they carry themselves?There’s a story about generosity that hit hard. The kind that makes you want to level up as a human. Not for clout. Not for applause. Just because someone showed up for you when you needed it.We also call ourselves out for hiding behind phones, projecting our own fears onto other people’s tone, and chasing goals we never actually defined.This one feels like a therapy session disguised as a casual hang.No big cannabis science breakdown this week. Just two dudes trying to figure out how to communicate better, live lighter, and stop overcomplicating everything.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

Cap Junky

Cap Junky

2026-02-1023:58

In this Utah strain review, we sit down with Cap Junky from Dragonfly and do what we always do, slow it down, smell it, smoke it, question it, and talk honestly about how it actually feels.Cap Junky is a hybrid made from Alien Cookies and Kush Mints, and on paper it looks intense. High THC, loud genetics, and numbers that usually scare people off. What surprised us is how smooth and controlled the experience actually was.We talk about the dryness a lot of Utah flower picks up in winter, how packaging dates matter more than strain hype, and why climate plays a bigger role than most people realize. We also compare Dragonfly flower to Beehive’s bud straight out of the bag and break down why “sticky” isn’t the same thing as “good.”The high itself is mostly heady and light, not overpowering, no chest tightness, no racing heart, no panic. A big part of that comes down to terpenes like limonene and a noticeable amount of CBG, which helps mellow the ride and smooth out the edges of a higher THC strain.We also get into why THC percentage alone is a bad buying strategy, how terpene profiles tell you more about how a strain will feel, and why some high THC flower can feel calmer than lower percentage options.This episode is part strain review, part Utah cannabis reality check, and part reminder that intent matters more than numbers.Strain notesHybridHigh THC, smooth experienceHead-focused, light body feelNoticeable limonene and CBGCalm, controlled, and surprisingly chillIf you’re in Utah and you’ve tried Cap Junky, or if you’ve had wildly different experiences with the same strain depending on brand or batch, let us know.

This one felt like catching up with an old friend you’ve never actually met in person.Kyle Trevor has been part of the Cannabis School orbit for a long time. Messaging us, asking questions, listening to episodes on repeat, and genuinely getting what this show is about. So having him on The Sesh felt less like an interview and more like finally pulling up a chair together.We talk about music, creativity, and what it looks like to grow alongside your art instead of trying to force it into something it’s not. Kyle opens up about his relationship with cannabis, how it shifted over time, and how intention and dosing completely change the experience. Not chasing being “stoned,” just wanting to feel present, connected, and okay in his own head.There’s a real conversation here about trauma, forced introspection, and how cannabis can sometimes bring things to the surface before you’re ready. We don’t dress it up. We talk about backing off when you need to, respecting the plant, and listening to your body instead of muscling through an experience because you think you’re supposed to.We also get into the weirdness of wearing your identity out in public, merch, art, judgment, Utah culture, and those moments where strangers either glare at you or light up because they feel seen. That tension between expression and perception shows up everywhere, especially when you’re making something honest.By the end, this episode lands in a really grounded place. Cannabis as a tool, not a crutch. Creativity as a long game. Growth as something that rarely looks clean while you’re inside of it.If you’ve ever felt like cannabis helped you reconnect, then challenged you, then asked you to slow down and reassess, this one will hit home.Go check out Kyle’s music, follow his journey, and sit with this conversation for a bit. It’s a good one.Listen to Kyle TrevorFollow Kyle TrevorKeep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

Halle Berry

Halle Berry

2026-02-0329:31

Halle Berry from Betty Wellness is one of those strains that doesn’t kick the door in right away. It takes its time, then quietly settles in and makes you realize you’re smiling, relaxed, and way more comfortable than you expected.First thing you notice is the look. These nugs are straight purple. Not hints of purple. Not accents. Just deep, rich purple all the way through. One of the most visually striking Utah flowers we’ve seen, easily in the same conversation as Tropicana Cherries, but darker and more uniform.The flower leaned a little dry, likely storage or packaging related, but even with that, the smoke was surprisingly smooth. No harsh bite, no instant throat grab. Across a few different pieces, it stayed easy and clean.Terpene wise, this one is led by limonene, followed by linalool, beta-caryophyllene, myrcene, and humulene. Translation, this is not a panic strain. The experience came on slow and even, with light facial tingles, a relaxed jaw, and a very clear headspace.Genetically, Halle Berry is bred from Ice Cream Cake × Blockberry. You’ll sometimes hear Blockberry casually called Blackberry, but the official Utah listing for Betty’s cut specifies Blockberry. The genetics show up more in the overall vibe than in-your-face flavor.Flavor stays subtle. Slightly peppery, a little earthy, nothing loud or perfumey. This is not a strain that tries to impress your nose, it wins on how it feels.THC sits around 18 percent, which matters here. This strain doesn’t rely on brute force. It’s balanced, approachable, and forgiving. No racing heart. No anxiety spike. No couch lock either.As the session went on, it turned into a sneaky euphoric creeper. Floaty head, relaxed body, calm arms, and a general “everything’s fine” feeling. There was even mild pain relief without the heaviness that usually comes with that territory.This is a strain we’d confidently hand to someone newer, someone sensitive, or someone who just wants to feel good without getting wrecked. It’s also a solid anytime option if you want to stay functional but noticeably happier.Big win for Betty Wellness here. This ended up being our favorite Betty strain so far, not because it was loud, but because it was thoughtful.If you’re looking for a happy, relaxed, clear-headed hybrid that doesn’t demand attention but earns it anyway, Halle Berry is worth your time.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

One of my favorite things about portable vaporizers is how discreet they are. I can carry mine around without worrying about smell or bulky accessories. The design feels sleek, and the heating system preserves flavor nicely. Battery life varies depending on the model, but mine lasts long enough for a full day. It’s also healthier for my throat, which makes me appreciate it even more. Check products here - https://hazesmokeshop.ca/product-category/vaporizers/portable-vaporizers/
