The Full Grimm Podcast

Welcome back everybody.  I had the absolute pleasure of getting to sit and chat with prolific THR / Vaping / Drugs writer Alex Norcia.   Alex has written for publications across the internet including VICE and for some reason he decided to chat with me.  

We had a great time and a great conversation about vaping, tobacco, bloomberg, working from home and so much more.

Welcome to episode 7

Today we have a chat with a pillar of the vape community, Mike Vapes! We talked all things YouTube, 2020 and the pressure and comes with being a "reviewer".  I think we had a really great show.   Thanks again for being on Mike!

Welcome to episode 4 of The Full Grimm Podcast

Really excited about today's episode. Michelle Minton did an incredible piece on the youth vaping "epidemic" and rather than attempt to read it on a Tuesday Bro Tuesday, it became this podcast.

Tons of really good fascinating information. Hope you all enjoy the hell out of it. Once again huge thank you to Michelle and CEI for allowing me to share this.

Really getting to know GrimmGreen, How I grew up, the environment of race and inclusivity I experienced. We talk about the state of the world, racism, George Floyd and how my beliefs and ideologies have been challenged and changed. 

I also wrap up #WorldVapeDay and how that played out.  Was it a success? yes... the answer is yes, with a "but".  

Enjoy
