Cannabis School

Slurricane sounds like it should knock you sideways—but this indica-dominant hybrid gave us a much more functional experience than expected.

In this Cannabis School strain review, Brandon and Jesse try Slurricane flower grown by Dragonfly Wellness. A cross between Do-Si-Dos and Purple Punch, this batch tested at approximately 26.5% THC, with limonene and beta-caryophyllene leading the terpene profile.

Right out of the jar, Slurricane delivers a sharp, sweet aroma with dark berry, citrus, gas, and an almost cheese-like funk. Once vaporized, it becomes smoother and more layered, bringing out sweet, slightly minty flavors with a light gassy finish.

The effects came on gradually. Instead of immediately locking us to the couch, Slurricane felt calm, present, and surprisingly easy to layer throughout the day. After several bowls, however, the head effects became heavier and a little wobbly—so dosage definitely matters.

For us, this felt like a great strain for a quiet evening, a relaxed staycation, looking at art, watching fish at an aquarium, taking a peaceful fall walk, or hanging out somewhere that isn’t packed with people. Brandon also found it potentially useful for daytime pain without making him feel immediately sleepy.

Of course, this is a Cannabis School episode, so the conversation eventually wanders into Utah’s changing landscape, art museums, enormous hidden mansions, Halloween traditions, childhood jobs, truck-driving stories, and the questionable ways parents used to teach kids a lesson.

In this episode:

• Slurricane’s Do-Si-Dos and Purple Punch genetics
• Dragonfly Wellness flower from Utah
• Sweet berry, citrus, mint, gas, and funky aromas
• The batch’s THC, minor cannabinoids, and terpene profile
• Vaporizing flower versus smoking it
• A calm experience without immediate couch lock
• Brandon and Jesse’s personal pain and relaxation experience
• Why Slurricane may work better in quieter environments
• How the effects changed after multiple bowls
• Why you should never drive after consuming cannabis
• Utah art, mansions, mountain towns, and fall weather
• Halloween memories and old-school parenting
• Jesse’s teenage jobs and unexpected high-school graduation

Slurricane gave us a sweet, smooth, relaxing experience that remained functional at lower amounts but became noticeably heavier as we kept going. This may be one to vaporize during the day and save the bigger sessions for the evening.

We’re kicking off this Sesh with the AirVape Legacy CORE, an entry-level dry-herb vaporizer AirVape sent us to try. We break down the airflow, temperature settings, replaceable battery, dosing capsules, cleaning design, session timer, warranty, and how it compares with the more advanced Legacy models.

For the price, the CORE delivers smooth airflow and respectable vapor—but the shorter session time and lack of a detailed display may matter depending on how you like to vape. We give you the good, the frustrating, and our honest verdict after running flower through it.

Then the Sesh takes over.

We ask whether modern video games still create those unforgettable “core memory” moments. From The Witcher 3 and Ghost Recon to remasters, endless releases, online gaming, practical movie effects, and nostalgia, we wonder whether entertainment has actually improved—or whether prettier graphics are covering up weaker stories.

From there, the conversation moves into work, money, homeownership, commercial real estate, gambling, religion, judgment, and the expectations we place on other people. Brandon also shares a difficult story from his time working in mental health involving someone who escaped a high-control religious community. That leads to a deeper discussion about faith, rituals, manipulation, personal responsibility, and why questioning your surroundings can be so important.

It’s funny, serious, uncomfortable, nostalgic, and completely off the rails—which means it’s definitely a Cannabis School Sesh.

In this episode:

• Testing the AirVape Legacy CORE
• Airflow, temperature settings, cleaning, and dosing capsules
• Replaceable batteries and the short session timer
• How the CORE compares with other AirVape models
• Why flower felt better after the previous RSO experience
• Are video games losing their “core memory” moments?
• The Witcher 3, Ghost Recon, remasters, and gaming nostalgia
• Practical movie effects versus digital perfection
• When hobbies become work
• Homeownership, commercial real estate, and financial risk
• Gambling, religion, and changing cultural expectations
• Growing up LDS and questioning what you were taught
• High-control communities, trauma, and personal freedom
• Why we can control our response—even when we can’t control the situation

RSO has one of the biggest reputations in cannabis—but what is Rick Simpson Oil, how do you use it, and what does it actually feel like?

In this episode of Cannabis School, Brandon and Jesse try a small amount of RSO from Hoodoo Cannabis. This one-gram syringe contains approximately 694 mg of THC, along with smaller amounts of CBN, CBG, and CBC. Needless to say, this is some seriously concentrated cannabis.

We get into the thick, sticky texture, the strong cannabis taste, and why measuring a “grain-of-rice-sized” amount is more difficult than it sounds. The effects begin showing up surprisingly quickly, giving us a calm, focused, and functional experience instead of the traditional euphoric high we expected.

For us, the experience seemed better suited for staying active and getting things done than sitting around waiting to feel high. We also discuss the importance of accurate dosing, why capsules may offer more consistency, and why RSO should be approached carefully—especially by anyone without a strong THC tolerance.

We also examine the history behind Rick Simpson Oil and the personal stories that helped build its reputation. RSO is often discussed in connection with cancer, pain, nausea, seizures, digestive conditions, and other serious health concerns. However, personal stories are not the same as clinical evidence, and cannabis should never replace professional medical care.

In this episode:

• What RSO and Rick Simpson Oil actually mean
• The Hoodoo Cannabis RSO syringe and cannabinoid profile
• Why RSO is so dark, thick, sticky, and difficult to handle
• How a very small amount tasted and felt
• How quickly we began noticing the effects
• Calm focus, body effects, and our pain experience
• Why the experience didn’t feel like a traditional high
• The history and reputation surrounding Rick Simpson
• Why extreme THC doses and self-treatment can be risky
• RSO capsules versus dosing directly from a syringe
• Why licensed products, clear labels, and responsible dosing matter
• Our final verdict on whether RSO is worth exploring

This week’s Sesh starts with old-school video games and ends with a Mexico story that escalates way past “we should probably find our friend.” In between? Strict parents, forbidden cartoons, questionable movie nights, and a very important question: was that childhood favorite actually good, or were you just twelve?

With Midtown Haze in the Volcano, we revisit the chaos of Manhunt, the love for Splinter Cell, and the absolute insanity of Conker’s Bad Fur Day. Then we take the scenic route through VHS memories, The Heavenly Kid, and the horror movies that make you laugh versus the ones that actually get under your skin.

Naturally, that turns into Navy stories, Tijuana adventures, and a dad who could negotiate a deal through sheer eye contact.

It’s a happy, rambling, “how the hell did we get here?” kind of sesh. Pull up a chair. You’re in good company.

Inside this sesh:

• Why some classic games still hit—and others should stay a memory.
• Childhood gaming limits and cartoons we weren’t allowed to watch.
• A Heavenly Kid recap that becomes its own side quest.
• Midtown Haze check-in: happy, chill, and thoroughly off-topic.
• Horror favorites, chainsaw hands, and one deeply questionable movie night.
• Navy memories, Mexico misadventures, and the art of holding your price.

Some strains get you talking. Midtown Haze apparently gets us building a whole Patrick Swayze cinematic universe before we’ve even finished the introduction. Welcome to Cannabis School.

This week, we’re firing up the Volcano and spending some quality time with Midtown Haze. Big, squishy buds, citrus on the first pull, and woody, earthy aromas have our attention—but how does it actually feel?

For us, this session brings a clearheaded, chatty high with a surprisingly relaxed body. We talk through those effects as they settle in, compare the experience with our expectations of a sativa-leaning hybrid, and get into why knowing your own preferences matters more than chasing a label.

Along the way, we’re sticking our noses in the grinder, talking flower storage, and appreciating good cannabis the same way you’d appreciate good food. Then we somehow end up on frozen pizza, ketchup sandwiches, learning languages, and somebody’s dad getting into glassblowing. It’s that kind of episode.

In this episode:

• Our Midtown Haze aroma, flavor, and effects review.
• Why we smell flower before and after grinding.
• Citrus, pine, incense, and earthy notes—and what we actually pick up.
• Our Volcano session and some vaporizer talk.
• Personal terpene preferences and the limits of strain labels.
• Creative curiosity, relaxed conversation, and the usual questionable tangents.

Ever feel like a few puffs turned you into a creative genius… then one more bowl sent you straight into “oh shit” territory? Yeah. We’ve been there.

This week on Cannabis School, Jesse and Brandon explore those moments when cannabis makes you feel more focused, more present, and a little more like the superhero in your own movie. Jesse’s Tropicana Cherries story kicks things off with a twelve-page writing sprint—and a second bowl that took the experience in a very different direction.

From there, we get into creativity, quieting the mental chaos, letting go of other people’s judgments, and finding joy without turning every damn hobby into work. There’s a giant bowl of Froot Loops analogy, a Ted Lasso moment, and enough gaming tangents to keep things interesting.

The question underneath it all: does cannabis give us superpowers, or do we sometimes feel like we’re finally getting out of our own way?

In this episode:

• Feeling locked in versus getting way too high
• Creativity, connection, and being present
• Jesse’s take on slowing down a brain full of ideas
• Ego, self-judgment, and learning without getting defensive
• Finding joy in books, games, and everyday moments
• Personal experiences with strains, terpene profiles, and dry herb vaporizers

We missed a week, came back, and apparently had some shit to work through.

This sesh starts with Mormon cartoons and whether carrying gold plates into battle requires superhero strength. Somehow, we end up talking about faith, family, forgiveness, and the stories we keep telling ourselves about who we are. GMO Cookies may have helped with the detours.

We get personal about growing up in very different households, finding community without agreeing on everything, and learning to look back at our mistakes without turning every memory into another reason to beat ourselves up. You fucked up. What have you learned? Who have you become since then?

Then we get into relationships, misunderstandings, and the difference between feeling angry and using that anger to hurt someone. There are some heavy moments in this one, along with plenty of us being us.

And just when things need a little breathing room, Jesse shares how “making new connections” became “naked connections” in a professional text. Autocorrect really said, let’s see where this goes.

In this sesh:

• Growing up with Living Scriptures and very specific Sunday entertainment.
• Family stories, alcohol, and the things we were taught to believe.
• Faith, church culture, and making room for people who think differently.
• Taking responsibility while giving yourself room to grow.
• How labels and assumptions get in the way of connection.
• Listening to your partner instead of preparing your rebuttal.
• Feeling your emotions without taking them out on someone else.
• An unfortunate text, a hard-earned racing win, and the power of a simple thank-you.

You wanted to chill. Your heart apparently signed up for cardio.

This week on Cannabis School, we’re talking about that uncomfortable moment when your heart starts pounding, you notice every damn beat, and suddenly your smartwatch has your undivided attention.

Jesse and Brandon share their own experiences with racing hearts, anxious highs, and familiar products that suddenly felt very different. We talk dose, tolerance, mindset, and the questions we sometimes forget to ask ourselves before a session: Did I sleep? Have I eaten? Am I already stressed? How much caffeine did I just put in my body?

We also revisit Jesse’s Banana Kush experience, discuss why we keep coming back to flower, and explain why being the experienced cannabis friend comes with some responsibility. Your buddy’s first session is not an audition for the Cannabis Olympics.

Expect honest conversation, questionable analogies, a few Jedi references, and a reminder that “just chill the fuck out” isn’t exactly top-tier emotional support.

In this episode:

• Racing hearts and the anxiety loop of noticing every heartbeat.
• Why the same strain doesn’t always feel the same.
• Our experiences with edibles, carts, flower, and changing tolerance.
• Looking beyond the biggest THC number on the shelf.
• Set and setting beyond candles and a little patchouli.
• Supporting a friend who’s having an uncomfortable experience.
• Talking with your pharmacist about medications—your physicist has other things going on.

Nuclear Muffins sounds like it should launch you into another dimension. This batch? More like a weighted blanket for your brain.

This week on Cannabis School, Jesse and Brandon dig into a strain that sneaks up slowly and gets the conversation rolling. We’re talking light, fruity flavor, squishy buds, and a high we found calm, clear, and surprisingly suited to getting creative. The number on this bag wasn’t huge—but we had plenty to say about the experience.

We also get into why we keep coming back to flower, our ongoing love affair with dry herb vaporizers, and how our early ideas about cannabis changed once we actually experienced it. Naturally, there’s a gravity bong story. Because apparently we can’t just review a strain and behave.

In this episode:

• Nuclear Muffins’ slow build and our firsthand impressions.
• Why the THC percentage doesn’t tell us everything we want to know.
• THCA labels, minor cannabinoids, and the entourage effect conversation.
• Flower versus carts—and how our preferences have changed.
• Vaporizer temperatures, session length, and differences between devices.
• Unlearning cannabis stigma, one conversation at a time.
