November 23, 2024Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson, what did we really expect!? - Seshisode 157 This week on Thoughts Off The Stem, we're talking about the Jake Paul, Mike Tyson fight. That's right, just like you, I allowed myself to get suckered in to the fantasy of it all. So my son and I decided to make it bro time in the living room and watch the fights.
It was definitely quite the spectacle, that's for sure! There actually was a good boxing match in there too. A few things needed a tweak here and I'm sure you've heard all the talk about Netflix crashing. There was definitely a lot going on, which left us with quite a bit to talk about. So roll up your favourite strain and join the sesh!Hope you enjoy!Don't forget to like, share and subscribe to the channel.

...more November 15, 2024Logical Potheads, Idolizing Idiots and BlueBerry Frost! - Seshisode 156 This week on Thoughts Off The Stem we are talking about logical potheads, societies fascination with idolizing idiots and a review of Dealer's Blueberry Frost pre roll.
If you haven't watched the last podcast you should check it out. This seshisode starts with a mini discussion related to seshisode 155. Basically as a pothead I feel like non potheads judge us with the assumption that we are lazy and stupid.Last weeks episode was about an incident at school where I, Justin Barone, your friendly neighbourhood pothead was the voice of reason. Or rather at least more level headed than some of my parenting peers. Which surprised me because I am the pothead of the group. In this instance, where everyone reacted rather than thinking it through. I prevailed as the more level headed member of the group.I attribute that to the fact that I smoke weed quite honestly. It got me thinking that in most cases if there were an issue at hand. A group of people would not necessarily look to the pothead for guidance or leadership. But in this case, I reacted to the situation and reached out. Everyone just said, "ok lets see what happens after Justin does a little digging." Quite honestly it amazed me that everyones reaction was going to be based on what I was able to do about the situation.Ultimately it got me thinking about how in society we still have a misconception of the capabilities of potheads. All I'm saying is, it's ok to trust a pothead.In that vein I some how got around to discussing Lt. Dan. You know the Florida man who tried to live through Hurricane Milton on a dingy in the ocean.It just amazed me how quickly society idolizes idiots. How quickly we support lunacy and urge it to run it's course. I feel like some how those idiots get categorized as potheads too. Which really just hurts our street cred man.Not all potheads are token idiots. Most of us are hard working, logical, laid back people who enjoy introspective thought, silliness and a relaxing time. All we want to do is smoke a joint think about life's possibilities and eat our favourite snack.Hope you enjoy the sesh!Don't forget to visit Tots420.com

...more November 08, 2024Special Needs, A Parenting Class and a Controversial Lesson Plan - Seshisode 155 This week on Thoughts Off The Stem I'm discussing a situation at my oldest kids highschool.
The teacher decided to use the special needs class to represent toddlers for a day in order to prepare her students for a toddler play date the following month.There is something seriously wrong with this don't you think?Is there no one around this teacher proofing the lesson plans?This to me was a major problem. It turns out it was a problem for a few of the parents. I reached out to find out what the logic was here. Lets just say the response left me less than happy or satisfied that this would further anyones education.I'm not trying to be any kind of social justice warrior here. I'm just saying that using anyone for to represent something they aren't is not the best look. There should have been way more thought put in to this. The practice of using someone with a disability to represent toddler is just wrong. The needs of both people are vastly different and in my opinion are not in any way similar or representative of the other.I also find it hard to believe that parents of the students in the special needs class, had they known this was going on, would have been overly accommodating or happy about having their kids involved in such an experiment.I just don't think it's right to use people like that.Join the Sesh and let me know what you think. Do you think the teacher was in the wrong?visit tots420.com for cannabis blogs and seshisode links...more November 01, 2024Regulated Goods, Selling Weed and Candy Rain - Seshisode 154 This week on Thoughts Off The Stem I felt like I had to address a few comments I was getting on youtube short I put out. The content was supposed to be about a humorous interaction I had with a customer. I think I failed at cutting it correctly.
The topic of the clip was how we have to sell products in the cannabis industry. So as I was receiving comment after comment about ripping people off I realized I had to respond and clarify the situation.Since comments don't always drive the point home I figured this seshisode would be the perfect opportunity to clarify in detail the concept. So this sesh is a pretty well detailed description of how the retail cannabis industry operates.The biggest misconception is that retail cannabis is a kin to Walmart style retail. It is not. Weed is a regulated good. So if you are going to compare retail operations you have to compare what it is like to sell regulated goods, like alcohol and cigarettes. You can't compare buying a bag of weed to buying pencils at staples.We are bound to the regulations the government has imposed on the industry and the operating procedures enforced by the parent companies/head offices that run these business's.Hope you enjoy the seshDon't forget to share, like, subscribe and visit Tots420.com...more October 25, 2024Top 10 Stoner Horror Movies to Watch on Halloween - Seshisode 152 This week on Thoughts Off The Stem. I thought it would be fun to give you my top 10 stoner horror movies to watch on halloween.
There are some spoilers in here. So if you haven't seen some of the movies I talk about, maybe skip through to the next one. Just in case.I think you'll find this list perfect for a stoner fueled fright fest. Well honestly some of them are cheesy but, you know, that's kinda part of halloween too right?Spark one up and lets talk murder, gore and silly horror.Hope you enjoy the sesh!Don't forget to subscribe, like, share and check out Tots420.com for the full catalogue of seshisodes....more October 18, 2024The Apocalypse, End Times and Spacey Pre Rolls - Seshisode 152 This week on Thoughts Off The Stem I was wondering to myself what would the apocalypse look like?
Based on all the craziness that is going on in the world today I think people are more aware than ever that we might be headed to end times. I'm just not that sure what our end times looks like. So in this sesh I'm posing the question of what you think an apocalypse would look like.
Is it filled with fire and brimstone, a nuclear war, aliens or is it something we won't see coming?
This is always a fun topic to explore considering there are so many different possibilities and my imagination runs rampant with this kind of thought exercise. I really do want to know your opinion so please leave a comment and let me know what you think. Even if that means letting me know you think I'm off my rocker.
Hope you enjoy the sesh!

...more October 11, 2024Greedy Weed Industry Corporations - Seshisode 151 This week on Thoughts Off The Stem. We are talking about corporate greed in the weed industry. The level of greed in the weed industry is astronomical, but I guess it's just a reflection of the societal greed we see on a personal level, every day on social media.
In Canada the weed industry is a budding industry new to the game and I understand that the people involved want to see massive and extreme growth very quickly. The problem with that, is that, while try to expand at a rapid pace. These corporations tend to make major missteps, which lead to quite a few operational mistakes.I think this comes from a lack of experience by the heads of these companies to understand the legitimate market. I say this because, in the canadian cannabis industry, there are quite a few business owners that started out on the black market. Their success there, doesn't necessarily translate to a legitimate business. They are still trying to operate with an underground mindset. I'm sure there is room for some of those practices to help grow these companies, however, there needs to be a shift in the quality of leadership within the cannabis industry.Hope you enjoy the sesh!Subscribe, Like, Share and visit Tots420.com to listen or watch the whole podcast catalogue.#cannabisindustry #cannabisculture #cannabisbusiness #podcast #comedy #cannabis #weedpodcast #thoughtsoffthestempodcast #cannabispodcast
...more October 05, 2024Business a Pot Shop and Crazy Customers! - Seshisode 150 This week on Thoughts Off The Stem we're smoking some East Coast Dank'z by MTL Cannabis. The lineage is Grape Gas and Gelato 41, making it a 29% THC Indica. I am smoking Orange Juice, Cured Resin by 1964, in the Stundenglass. It's an 83% THC Cured Resin.
This sesh we're talking about the eclectic group of customers we see on a daily basis. Being that retail cannabis is a relatively new development in society. There is a lot of interpersonal carry-over from the black market.We used to have a schedule a time to go visit a guy in a basement or a garage. Upon arrival we had to commit at least 45 minutes to visiting this individual. In some cases you ended up getting sucked into helping with chore list or entertaining kids while they complete some of the tasks on their list.This meant we had to build relationships with our plugs and has carried over to the retail industry where, there is an abundance of people who come into the shop with, at least a small amount of intent to inform you of all the goings on in their lives.I know that we are called "Budtenders". It sounds similar to "Bartender" and there is a clear expectation that we lend a sympathetic ear to our customers. This means that in some cases we get high jacked and ear beaten with peoples problems from time to time. Though I don't mind sharing my years of wisdom to help someone out. Maybe the time to acquire some life advice is not in a packed pot shop.All I'm saying, is that it's a business. Would you go to Walmart and tell the employees there all about your last colonoscopy? I don't think so.Hope you enjoy the sesh!Subscribe, Like, Share and visit Tots420.com for links to all our episodes.#podcast #comedypodcast #cannabispocast #humor #entertainment #fictionpodcast #cannabisculture #cannabisindustry #comedy #indiepodcast #thoughtsoffthestem #cannabisbusiness #retailbuiness #retailmanagement #management #customerservice
...more September 27, 2024Diddy is an Animal! - Seshisode 149 This week on Thoughts Off The Stem we're talking about what everyone is talking about. P Diddy and his recent indictment. From freak off parties, to racketeering, to murder plots, to human trafficking. This dude is insane. Since this is pretty heavy and we like to keep things light around here we're dabbing up 1964's Orange Juice cured resin. For a little extra pop, we mixed in a bit of Terra Labs Cherry Ak resin. Lets just say it added a nice little energized kicked to the sesh.
I gotta ask though, did we really not see this coming? I mean the dude has been marred in controversy since the beginning of his career. It's alleged that he put out a hit on his own artist, Biggie Smalls. Not to mention his possible involvement in the shooting of Tupac in New York at a recording studio. This guy has always done whatever he can to maintain power over the music industry.His label is called Bad Boy records. He named himself Puff Daddy, then P. Diddy, then shortened it to Diddy. Started throwing Freak Off parties where almost immediately there were low level rumblings of nefarious on goings. Yet celebs and high powered people attended these parties and worked with the man because of the money he was pulling in and the power he held.Maybe I am naive but it's appalling to me that, as rumblings of Diddy's behaviour started to reach the public, those in the know protected this predator. I don't understand how these powerful people just sweep these kinds of things under the rug. What does this say about the psyche of people seeking fame and fortune? Does it suggest that the morals of the famous go to the highest bidder?Hope you enjoy the sesh!Visit Tots420.com

...more September 20, 2024TikTok Culture, Work Ethic and Blue Dream! - Seshisode 148 This week on Thoughts Off The Stem Justin and Tyler are trying out Blue Dream from Space Race, a 30% hybrid pre roll. As always they start the show with a hit from the Stundenglass, this week they had a little Live resin Orange Juice by 1964, an 83% sativa.
This week Justin and Tyler are discussing TikTok culture and work ethic. Each generation is obviously different from the one before it. With the constant need for technological advancement, human interaction suffers. Social awareness declines and interpersonal skills seem to meet an end similar to that of the do-do bird.The mentality of young people has been pressed and adapted to changing technologies that suck the life out of engagement. Leading to a work force that thinks swipe culture actually applies in the real world. As great as technology is, it seems to be diminishing our ability to interact, thus creating a disconnect between reality and the virtual world. All that applies online does not necessarily add to a functioning individual in the real world.Many kids are coming into the work force with impatiently short attention spans. Lacking the ability to work through real world problems in real time and not being able to adapt to issues that need progressive problem solving skills.A lot of these green individuals lack the ability to form their own opinions, discern between fake or bad information and complete tasks on their own. If you are given a problem to solve then figure it out. Don't walk around asking everyones input about the problem you are facing. Learn to solve the problem and find the answer. Basically put in the work, that's how you make yourself valuable in the workforce.Hope you enjoy the sesh!Like, Subscribe, Share and visit Tots420.com#podcast #comedy #cannabis #comedypodcast #cannabispodcast #canadianpodcast #fictionpodcast #indiepodcast #thoughtsoffthestem
