Joy: Hey guys, this is Joy.

Claire: And this is Claire.

Joy: Welcome back to another wonderful episode of our show. It’s truly wonderful. I think we’ve been talking about it for a couple weeks now because we’ve been very excited to have Ret Taylor on the show, one of the creators of Ned, who has been a wonderful sponsor of ours over the years. Welcome to the show, finally. Well, you were on our Episode 300 back in the day.

Ret: Yeah.

Joy: But actually sitting down and having a conversation, this is the first time.

Ret: It is, which is crazy.

Joy: How does it feel?

Ret: It feels like we’re old friends. Thanks to Instagram, I know everything about both of you. 

Joy: For better or for worse.

Ret: Yeah. This is great. I’m so glad to be here.

Joy: No, thank you so much. We truly sing your praises every time we do an ad for Ned. I know you know this because we’ve talked to you about it over the years. We love to work with great people because it just makes us feel good when we’re talking about a product that’s not just a product for us.

We’ve been in a position to be picky to work with who we want to work with for products, so we’re just super happy that we’ve been able to work with you over the years.

Claire: I also love that for something like CBD, which a lot of people it takes them a while to trust it. It’s kind of confusing. It’s becoming more mainstream now, but a lot of people still have so many questions about it that we feel so confident being like, no, it’s fine. Ret and Adriaan got you.

Joy: You’re good. You guys will be fine.

Ret: Well, I mean, I remember – and this going back almost three years. But you guys vetted us hard. You guys asked major questions, made sure you found the right answers, checked those answers. I love when people that we work with do that. Not everybody does, but the ones that last the longest, and the ones that we find the best relationships long-term are the ones who do. And you guys, again,
