Cannabis School

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.

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.

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.

This Sesh with Lily Lane is one of those conversations that sneaks up on you. It starts light, funny, a little chaotic in the best way, and then somewhere along the line you realize you’re talking about identity, pressure, creativity, and what it actually feels like to grow into yourself while people are watching.

Lily comes in as Lily, not a brand, not a product pitch, not a polished “artist story.” We talk about growing up creative, what it’s like to outgrow versions of yourself that other people are still attached to, and how uncomfortable it can be to decide you’re allowed to change. There’s laughter, a little self-deprecation, and a lot of honesty about the weird space between who you were and who you’re becoming.

Cannabis shows up the way it often does on The Sesh, not as the headline, but as part of real life. We talk about how it fits into creativity, relaxation, and being present, without pretending it’s some magic answer or personality trait. Just another tool, another lens, another choice people relate to differently.

We also get into music, writing, and what it’s like to make things that actually mean something to you, even when that means letting go of expectations. Lily talks about her relationship with her own voice, both literally and metaphorically, and what it takes to trust it more now than she did before.

This episode isn’t about hype or hustle. It’s about becoming more honest with yourself, learning how to sit with discomfort, and finding your way back to play, curiosity, and joy, even when life feels loud.

If you’ve ever felt caught between who you used to be and who you’re trying to become, this one’s going to land.

Blue Steel is one of those strains that doesn’t try to impress you by knocking you over. It just quietly shows up, does its job, and lets you stay human.

This episode is a solo run with Brandon holding things down while Jesse recovers, and it ends up being a really honest, grounded walkthrough of a strain that feels more like a tool than a party trick.

Blue Steel is an indica-dominant hybrid that usually lands in the lower THC range, roughly 16–18 percent. In a market obsessed with chasing the highest number on the label, this one goes the opposite direction, and that’s kind of the point.

This episode explores Blue Steel in concentrate form, not flower, with a lot of attention paid to flavor, sensation, and how the effects actually unfold over time instead of all at once.

Right out of the gate, the terpene profile makes itself known. Piney up front, with myrcene and beta-caryophyllene leading the charge. The flavor comes through fruity at first, then settles into something deeper and peppery on the exhale. It’s noticeable, but not harsh, especially when dabbed at lower temperatures.

The effects come on gently. Brandon describes it as a light dusting across the head rather than a heavy fog. Even though it’s indica dominant, there’s no haziness, no mental slowdown, and no derailment of your thoughts. The headspace stays clear and focused, while the body eases up, especially across the shoulders and back.

As it settles in, Blue Steel shows its personality. Relaxed, subtle, quietly uplifting. It doesn’t push you toward the couch, and it doesn’t shove you into your own head. It feels functional. Present. Calm.

This is framed as a daytime strain, especially for people who still want to get things done. For Brandon, who deals with chronic pain, it takes the sharp edge off without stealing attention or motivation. No chest pressure. No head pressure. No tightness. Just a smoother baseline.

The episode also turns into a really practical conversation about dabs, dosing, and why concentrates don’t have to mean getting obliterated. There’s a clear explanation of why low-temperature dabbing preserves flavor and experience, how tiny amounts go a long way, and why pens can sometimes deliver inconsistent effects over time due to repeated heating and cooling.

One of the most important takeaways here is that dabbing isn’t about taking massive globs or chasing intensity. It’s about control. Temperature control, dose control, and experience control.

Blue Steel ends up being described as a genuinely beginner-friendly strain. Low THC, roughly around one percent CBG depending on the grower, and commonly used for pain, stress, and anxiety. It doesn’t overwhelm or amplify anxious thoughts. Instead, it softens whatever edge you walked in with.

This is the kind of strain you could use while working, hanging out with friends, or easing into cannabis if you’re newer or more sensitive to higher THC products. It’s calm without being dull, relaxing without being sedating, and clear-headed without being stimulating.

Not flashy. Not aggressive. Just steady, pleasant, and effective.

Sometimes that’s exactly what you need.

This episode feels like sitting in a garage with friends who are equal parts curious, sarcastic, and done pretending there’s one “right” way to use cannabis.

Louise drops in and immediately turns the whole thing into a real conversation, not a lecture. From joking about consumption methods to breaking down what actually works for her body, this episode moves through humor, trial-and-error, and the quiet reality that cannabis hits everyone differently.

We talk about chasing that one strain that glued you to the couch years ago and never showed up again, why people swear something “does nothing” for them until it suddenly does, and how experimenting responsibly is usually the missing piece when someone says cannabis isn’t for them.

Louise also opens up about learning dabs the hard way, why bubble hash surprised her, and how fats, timing, and microdosing can completely change the experience. There’s an honest conversation about edibles, why they don’t always hit, and how tolerance sneaks up on you without asking permission.

Somewhere between laughing about old podcast chaos, reminiscing on unhinged guest moments, and swapping real-life tips for heartburn, nausea, and dose control, this episode lands exactly where The Sesh lives, messy, funny, curious, and grounded in real experiences, not cannabis myths.

If you’ve ever thought, “Maybe I’m doing this wrong,” or “Why does everyone else feel this but I don’t,” this one’s for you.

What We Get Into

• Why cannabis experiences are wildly individual

• Dabs vs live rosin vs bubble hash, what actually feels different

• The strain you’ll never forget and why you can’t find it again

• How fats and timing change how THC hits

• Microdosing, tolerance, and why edibles can feel broken

• Learning through bad experiences and helping others avoid them

• Why the least professional podcasts are sometimes the best ones

This one’s not a debate, it’s a gut check. Stephanie Shepard spent about a decade in federal prison on a nonviolent cannabis conspiracy conviction, and now she’s working with the Last Prisoner Project to help bring other people home. Legal weed is cool, but it hits different when you remember people are still doing real time for the same plant.

What This Episode Is Really About

• How “conspiracy” charges can swallow people whole, even without you being caught with product or cash

• What it does to your identity when you go from “regular person” to “felon” overnight

• The invisible part of prison, the time you lose, the skills gap, the trauma, the reentry chaos

• Why legalization without release and record clearing is just capitalism wearing a halo

• Practical ways to help, that don’t require you to become a full-time activist

Stephanie’s Story, The Parts That Stick

• She describes catching a first-time, victimless “conspiracy” charge tied to an ex-boyfriend’s case

• The jury, and most people watching from the outside, often do not understand what the sentence is really going to be, until it’s too late

• She talks about the insanity of facing years for a nonviolent cannabis conspiracy case, even when she says she was not caught with cannabis or money

• Inside, she found purpose where she could, including years teaching ESL in prison

• Getting out was not a movie ending, it was whiplash, tech moved on, life moved on, and your record follows you into everything

Legal weed is not justice, it’s just a new chapter. Until the people still locked up for cannabis are free, and the people branded by convictions can actually rebuild, we’re not done here.

Cannabis School is real conversation plus clear education, no hype, no judgment. We focus on flavor, effects, and how to use cannabis more intentionally, so you can find what actually fits your life.

Pandemic Punch is a “turn the volume down on life” strain that still keeps your brain online. The first hit comes in bright and punchy, fruit and citrus up front, then it slides into a calm, floaty body ease that makes your shoulders drop without instantly stapling you to the couch. The vibe is happy, relaxed, and a little giggly, with a steady “I’m good” headspace.

Smell and taste lean fruity-citrus with a skunky tang underneath, like sweet punch with a funky edge. It’s fun on the inhale, then it settles into that mellow exhale where your body remembers it can unclench.

Brandon and Jesse kick this sesh off on a deceptively simple question that always turns into a whole thing, how do you actually show love, like real love, not Instagram love, not “I posted a quote so I’m healed” love. And it starts in the most Brandon way possible, food. Not “I heated something up,” food, but “I’m trying to give you an experience” food. The kind where mac and cheese is not allowed to be mid, and even the boxed stuff somehow ends up feeling like a flex because you refuse to let a meal be boring if you’re the one cooking.

That rolls right into the part nobody talks about, love languages sound cute until you realize people are basically running different operating systems. Some people hug, some people avoid feelings like it’s a sport, and some people show love by handing you something useful and acting like that counts as emotional intimacy. There’s a whole little riff on how weird the holiday season is too, because no matter what you believe, December has that “aura,” like the world collectively cosplays being nicer for a minute. This year hits different though, court stuff in the background, kids in town, then kids gone, the emotional whiplash of closeness and absence back to back.

Then you two take a hard left into the modern world being kind of… engineered. You talk about how life isn’t “scripted” like a conspiracy, but it is shaped, nudged, fed, and filtered. Algorithms decide what you see, what you fear, what you think “everyone” thinks, and suddenly we’re all yelling at each other like we’re defending our favorite sports team. The perfect dumb metaphor lands, “I’m Coke and you’re Pepsi,” and then immediately gets exposed for what it is, it’s sugar water with bubbles, why are we acting like this is a holy war. That’s the point, a lot of the division isn’t even about reality anymore, it’s about identity, dopamine, and what keeps people glued to their screens.

From there it gets real in that way you guys do, not preachy, just honest. You talk about how hiding parts of yourself is basically self-rejection dressed up as “protecting the relationship.” The fear sounds like, “If you see this part of me, you won’t love me.” And the truth is brutal and freeing, you’re not even letting yourself be loved if you’re always editing who you are. There’s also a solid moment of perspective from stepping away from rigid religion years ago, and realizing you’ve seen more closeness and acceptance since, not less. More room for people to be whole, messy, complicated, and still worth loving.
