Episode 179 of the Good PizzZa Podcast, we sit down with real cannabis OGs — Terrance aka Payaso Grow and his brother Phillip.

These two come from a different era.

Growing up in Los Angeles in the 70s and 80s, they lived through one of the wildest times in the city’s history — gang violence at an all-time high, the crack era hitting the streets, and survival being part of everyday life.

Their come-up was no joke.

But through all of that, cannabis found its way into their lives — and it became something more than just a hustle.

Over time, they built deep roots in the OG LA cannabis scene, especially when it comes to classic OG strains and genetics. This is real lineage, real history, and real respect earned over decades.

Now they’re still active and evolving:

🔥 Working on breeding projects
🔥 Dropping seeds and preserving genetics
🔥 Building their name globally
🔥 Tapped into markets in Australia, Spain, and beyond

These fellas been doing this!

In this episode we get into:

🔥 crazy times in LA during the 70s and 80s…
🔥 How cannabis became part of their path
🔥 The early OG scene and building their name
🔥 Breeding, seeds, and preserving real genetics
🔥 Expanding their presence worldwide

This one’s about legacy, survival, and putting in real time in the game.

If you respect OG cannabis history and the people who built the culture, this episode is a must.

Episode 178 of the Good PizzZa Podcast, we tap in with Ceasar from N.Y.Ceeds — a Brooklyn native who took his passion for cannabis and turned it into a real lane in breeding and seed selection.

Ceasar grew up in New York’s cannabis scene, but like a lot of people looking to level up, he made the move out to Colorado to really sharpen his skills.

That’s where everything changed.

Out there, he learned the real value of:
🔥 Breeding cannabis properly
🔥 Selecting quality genetics
🔥 Understanding seeds on a deeper level
🔥 The business behind cannabis and seed culture

After gaining that experience, he brought everything back home to New York and started building his own lane — working on breeding projects and quickly becoming a trusted source for high-quality seeds and genetics.

We first connected at Ego Clash a few years back, and ever since, it’s been nothing but love — he always comes through with seeds and keeps it solid.

In this episode we talk:

🔥 New York cannabis culture
🔥 Moving to Colorado to level up
🔥 The art of breeding and selecting genetics
🔥 Building a name in the seed game
🔥 Why good genetics matter more than hype

This is a dope look into how a New Yorker carved out his place in the breeding world and brought that knowledge back to the city.

In Episode 177 of the Good PizzZa Podcast, we sit down with Hightower & Mrs. Greenthumb — a real cannabis power couple building everything from the ground up.

From meeting in college in Georgia to making the move out to Grass Valley, California, their journey has been anything but easy. Early on, they found themselves living next to a cult (yeah… real story), that was a good one! They stayed locked in, popped off a few different spots until they landed at their current location where they’re absolutely crushing! They stayed focused on their vision.

No shortcuts. No gimmicks. Just hard work, dedication, and love for the plant.

They built their name through:

🔥 Organic cultivation
🔥 Putting in the work day after day
🔥 Winning hash awards overseas
🔥 Growing their brand the right way

And what really stands out is their partnership.

Mrs. Greenthumb represents the strength and work ethic of women in cannabis — hands-on, in the garden, getting it done. And Hightower is right there beside her. Real teamwork. Real foundation.

This episode is about building something real, staying disciplined, and trusting the process.

Episode 175 of the Good PizzZa Podcast, we tap in with B Gunz — rapper, content creator, and host of the Green Rush Nation podcast.

B grew up between Flushing, Queens and Long Island, New York, where his love for music started early. He’s been grinding in the rap game for years, but everything changed when he made the move out to California.

Once he got out west, he saw the opportunity, felt the energy, and decided to take a real leap — starting his life over and going all-in on his music and content journey.

Before locking in with Green Rush Nation, B was running a mobile podcast setup service, pulling up anywhere and helping people create their own podcasts on the spot. Real hustle.

Then one moment changed everything.

He linked with the Green Rush Nation crew through a stash & dash, set up a podcast for them… and the rest was history. From there, he became the host and has been building with the team ever since.

We also talk about:
🔥 His early days in New York
🔥 Moving to California and betting on himself
🔥 Building Green Rush Nation
🔥 Doing freestyle battles for streamers like Kai Cenat and Neon
🔥 Staying consistent and keeping the right energy

B Gunz is one of those dudes who just keeps working. No shortcuts, no excuses — just showing up and making things happen.

This one’s about taking risks, staying hungry, and building your lane wherever you land.

This one hits different.

Episode 174 of the Good PizzZa Podcast, we sit down with Rico 2 Smoove, a Sacramento artist whose life story is built on struggle, survival, and ultimately finding purpose.

Rico grew up fast — no father around, his older brother incarcerated, and his mother battling addiction. Moving from house to house throughout Sacramento, he found himself pulled into the streets and gang life early, leading to time in jail and youth detention.

But everything changed after he was shot twice on two separate occasions. The second time, he was with his wife and three sons. By the grace of God, everyone made it out alive — and that moment forced him to look at life differently.

From that point on, Rico made a decision:
It was time to change.

Since then, he’s been building a new path.

📚 Writing and publishing a children’s book while incarcerated
🤝 Giving back to the community and mentoring youth
🎤 Growing his music career with real purpose behind it

On the cannabis side:

🌿 Partnered with Casa Flor
🌿 Building Octane Exotics with his cousin
💧 Launching their standout cannabis drink Aqua Fresca

This episode is about turning pain into purpose, stepping up as a father, and making sure the next generation doesn’t repeat the same mistakes.

If you need motivation, perspective, or just a real story — this is one to tap into.

Episode 173 of the Good PizzZa Podcast dives straight into one of the most talked-about strains in the cannabis world right now — Toad Venom, also known as Frog Poison.

Our guest Chad Lee of the Waterboyz pulls up to break down the wild story behind the strain that has become one of the most hyped and highest-priced pounds in the game today.

Bred by Ronin Seeds and originally hunted by Green Dragon, Frog Poison quickly became one of the most sought-after cuts in the exotic cannabis market. But with hype comes chaos.

In this episode we get into the full saga:

🔥 The origin story of Frog Poison
🔥 Why it became one of the most expensive strains on the market
🔥 The flood of fake cuts that hit the scene
🔥 How many growers were unknowingly sold Detroit Runtz labeled as Frog/Toad
🔥 Chad Lee’s journey tracking down the real cut
🔥 Linking with the homies Cutright and Northbay
🔥 How Frog Poison eventually became known as Toad Venom

This episode is straight cannabis lore — one of those behind-the-scenes stories that shows how hype strains spread through the culture and how hard it can be to track down the real genetics.

If you’re into strain history, exotic genetics, and the wild drama behind the cannabis game, this episode is a must watch.

Trap Jesus is back for round two.

It’s been about two years since his first appearance on the Good PizzZa Podcast, and a lot has happened in the world of genetics. Let me be the first to tell you, Gas is alive and well!

Trap Jesus has built a reputation as one of the true keepers of classic West Coast strains — an OG in the game keeping the OG alive and well. We’re talking Original Kush, Bubba Kush, BTY OG, Headband, Green Crack, and the kind of old-school gas that doesn’t get lost in hype cycles.

In this episode we dive into:

🔥 Preserving legacy Kush genetics
🔥 The story of how he originally got Bubba Kush nearly 20 years ago
🔥 The full-circle moment of returning that Bubba Kush back to Kenji and Josh D after all those years
🔥 Relationships with real OGs in the Kush world
🔥 The controversial Tortoise Tears strain — bred accidentally and later claimed by Trichome Tortoise

Trap Jesus has always been about protecting the real gas, not chasing trends. This conversation is about genetics, loyalty, history, and why the Gas still matter today.

If you care about real Kush lineage, legacy genetics, and the stories behind them, this one’s a must-watch.

Episode 171 we sit down with Ray Bama, one of the key names behind the legendary R___tz  movement — along with Yung LB — and a founding force behind The Fire Society.

Let’s clear it up properly.

R___tz wasn’t just another strain drop. It became the candy of all candy strains. It shifted flavor profiles. It shifted branding. It shifted what people expected from selling exotic flower.

Supposedly, the genetics are Gelato 33 × Zkittlez… but truth be told? Nobody really knows for sure. And that mystery only added to the legend.

What we do know is this:

R__tz was first discovered in the Bay Area. From there, it spread like wildfire. A whole new generation waned it. NYC went crazy with it! Bags changed. Cereal boxes started. Branding changed. Packaging went wild! The candy era officially arrived.

In this episode we talk:

🔥 The early R___tz days in the Bay
🔥 Linking with Yung LB and building the movement
🔥 How R___tz became the most talked-about candy strain in the world
🔥 The Fire Society and pushing real exotic culture
🔥 Music, marketing, and how flavor became king
🔥 Ray Rays early days tour managing for Berner

R___tz  created a wave that still hasn’t stopped! Ray Bama was right there when it happened.

This one’s about legacy, the candy era, new and classic flavors, and how one strain can literally change the entire cannabis game.

🔥when Bully and Juan linked
