“No free man is to be arrested, or imprisoned, or disseised, or outlawed, or exiled, or in any other way ruined, except by the lawful judgment of his peers or by the law of the land.”

In the midst of these unprecedented times, it’s important to remember the mistakes that have been made in the past. The events that led up to the June 1215 signing of “The Great Charter” are a great reminder that no one person is above the law.

Daniel and Mark are on the road to Runnymede on this debut episode of Stoned Studies! We meet some Henry’s, a Dick, and their shitty brother John, and learn how their ruthless dynasty led to what many scholars refer to as “The Birth of Liberty”.

Anthony Benge makes First Bake history as the show’s first-ever non-smoking guest — and instantly becomes one of the funniest. From haunted hotels and ghost sex hypotheticals to getting roasted by 12-year-olds on Call of Duty, growing up on a Nebraska farm, and why cinnamon rolls belong in chili (apparently), this is a wildly fun and weirdly wholesome ride through the haunted house of life. Also: aliens, Jason Momoa, and the worst gas station breakfast pizza you’ll love anyway

Reyhan Inteus joins the guys for an episode that can only be described as “Raunchy”.

We discuss relationships, the different levels of 🍆, the feasibility of a live audience sitcom in 2025, ghosts sex, and the crew put together a MILF Mount Rushmore (and Reyhan shares why Lisa Ann isn’t on it)

Mark and Daniel welcome August Fears and Phoenix Nitro into the circle for an unfiltered ride through wrestling memories, film hot takes, chaotic fashion, and very questionable math. August, draped in full cheetah print, shares stories about making glasses out of melted belts, answers The Great Ghost Query, and promotes safe sex like only he can. Phoenix Nitro joins the madness as the crew debates saucy lemon pepper wings, the downfall of CGI, and who in Star Wars pulls the most intergalactic tail.

Oh—and fuck Trey Songz, and Chris Brown too.

In this episode, we’re joined by Mark Kazinec and Joey Posney, the minds behind Best in Grass — a consumer-led cannabis competition platform changing the way we celebrate the best in weed. After years of producing High Times Cannabis Cups, the duo set out to build something more transparent, community-driven, and data-backed. We talk about how Best in Grass works, their past lives in talent and event management, and how everyday cannabis users are now the ones deciding who really has the best flower, edibles, and concentrates in the game.

On this episode of First Bake, we sit down with Steven also known as the Tennessee Terp Farmer to talk all things solventless. He walks us through his entire hash-making process—from harvesting for fresh frozen to pressing rosin—and breaks down the difference between BHO and live rosin in a way that actually makes sense.

We also talk about branding, growing up Southern, dealing with THC-A laws in Tennessee, and why concentrates hit different depending on how you smoke them. There’s some ghost talk, wrestling stories, and a lot of appreciation for music that calms the mind. Chill conversation, lots of good info, and a real look into the work behind small-batch hash.

On this episode of First Bake, we sit down with Clint Palmer—Director of Compliance at the Hemp Law Group and a true veteran of the cannabis scene in the South. With over 20 years of hands-on experience, from underground growing to university-level genetic research, Clint brings an unmatched perspective to the current legal chaos surrounding hemp in Tennessee and beyond.

We get into it all—how new legislation is threatening small farmers and local retailers, why the ABC takeover is a major red flag, and what the industry needs to do next to survive. Clint also shares wild stories from his guerrilla growing days, the evolution of cannabis tech, and the surprising science behind coming down from a bad edible trip. Oh—and we talk music, parenting, munchies, and that one time he ran weed plants past a cop while kayaking.

If you care about cannabis in the South, this is an essential listen.
