In this episode of Havin’ A Wonderful Time, Paranoid sits down with the legendary Dad_Terps—a beloved growmie known for his humor, big heart, and unforgettable take on skin fold terps. They talk about everything from Paranoid's wild weekend at a Tennessee field party to the smoke-filled memories of HashBash 2025. Dad_Terps shares wisdom from his garden, tips for new growers, and his favorite cultivars and tools—all with the love and laughter he’s known for.

This week it's just the two of us—NerdGrows and The Grateful Gardener—kicking back and diving deep into what we've got going on.

We talk all things outdoor garden, including what we're planting, prepping, and hoping to harvest. Grateful shares details on his new cannabis breeding project and the goals behind it, and we both open up about something every creator faces: burnout. The highs, the lows, and how we’re working through it while still chasing the grow life and making content.

In this episode of Havin’ a Wonderful Time, Paranoid sits down with the legendary growmie Kpopsphyr—a southern gentleman with a green thumb and terps that hit like a freight train. From beastly buds to favorite cultivars, this one’s a celebration of the plant and the people who love it.

This week on Havin’ A Wonderful Time, Paranoid is joined by a beloved growmie and community bright spot—Cheese! As Avery Aames once said, “Life is great, but Cheese makes it better,” and that couldn’t be more true for this episode.

We take a trip down memory lane with stories from Hash Bash 2025—hotbox meetups, scavenger hunts, Bongs and Thongs, meeting legends like OutKast, 417Grows, and even spotting Tommy Chong at the Diag. From the fire cider to the final smoke circle at IHOP, this was a Hash Bash to remember.

Cheese also gives us a peek into his garden setup—salts or organics, his favorite equipment, local grow shops, and of course, his journey into cannabis cultivation. We talk autoflowers vs. photoperiods, favorite strains, rookie mistakes, and what keeps him growing even through hard times. Plus, Cheese drops real wisdom for new growers looking to start their first garden.

On this episode of Havin' A Wonderful Time, Paranoid interviews the great OutKast Genetics. This isn’t just a sesh—it’s a deep dive into the mind of a breeder. OutKast breaks down his garden setup, breeding philosophy, and the difference between real-deal breeders and pollen chuckers. He shares insights on pest resistance, cultivation gear, and how to spot a strain with true medicine. Let's not forget the venture into the mythical HAWT Seat.

In Episode 23 of The Grateful Nerd Show, we try our best not to talk about our outdoor vegetable gardens... but let’s be real, we can’t help ourselves. We also officially announce our 420 Giveaway, where one lucky growmie will win a stash of goodies to celebrate the high holiday in style!

Meanwhile, Nerd is feeling jealous of the homies at Hash Bash while we’re stuck at home playing with soil, and Grateful shares his exciting plans for growing photoperiod cannabis plants this season. If you love cannabis cultivation, outdoor gardening, and chaotic stoner humor—you’re in the right place.
