Chris Guthrie](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/understand-this-before-you-use-ai-to-build-software-ft-chris-guthrie) — Chris Guthrie: Chris Guthrie of 365 Cannabis joins the podcast to explain why 'vibe coding' internal ERP, CRM, and supply-chain tools with AI is a tempting but dangerous shortcut for cannabis operators, arguing that without real computer-science and change-management discipline, businesses build tech debt and fragile 'houses of cards' instead of durable infrastructure. The conversation covers why established platforms like Microsoft's Business Central carry real value, why cannabis seed-to-sale data is only descriptive (not predictive), how M&A due diligence and looming FDA-style regulation will punish companies running on Google Sheets or homegrown tools, and how to calculate the real ROI and cost of building software in-house versus investing in proven ERP systems. - [Hirsh Jain: Rescheduling Is Already Picking Winners](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/hirsh-jain-rescheduling-is-already-picking-winners) — Hirsh Jain: This episode features cannabis strategist Hirsh Jain unpacking the confusing reality behind the April 2025 rescheduling order — explaining why medical cannabis moved to Schedule III while adult-use remains Schedule I, why states like Oklahoma, California, and Washington are interpreting the order in wildly different ways, and what the pending June 29–July 15 DEA hearing on full rescheduling could mean. The conversation also dives deep into the mechanics of DEA registration, the legal pathways toward interstate cannabis commerce, red-state medical market growth (Georgia, Texas, Arkansas), and the implications of the recent Supreme Court gun-rights ruling for cannabis users — making it essential listening for operators trying to navigate a rapidly shifting, still-uncertain federal and state regulatory landscape. - [Germany Is the Engine: What BAT Knows That Cannabis Doesn't ft. James Yamanaka](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/germany-is-the-engine-what-bat-knows-that-cannabis-doesnt-ft-james-yamanaka) — James Yamanaka: In this episode, Organigram CEO James Yamanaka discusses his path from British American Tobacco to leading one of Canada's largest cannabis companies, explaining how BAT's long-term, disciplined investment thesis in cannabis shaped Organigram's strategy and ultimately its acquisition of Germany's Sanity Group. The conversation covers the complexity of Canada's provincial cannabis markets, the discipline needed around SKU rationalization and vape category investment, and why Germany — where Canadian producers already supply 46% of the market — represents a massive, still-early growth opportunity for global cannabis. It's a useful listen for anyone trying to understand how legacy consumer/tobacco corporate playbooks, capital, and international market access can reshape cannabis M&A and operations. - [Why Ohio Cannabis Is Built Different: Inside the Regulator-Operator Alignment That's Actually Working ft. Caroline Henry](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/why-ohio-cannabis-is-built-different-inside-the-regulator-operator-alignment-thats-actually-working-ft-caroline-henry) — Caroline Henry: This episode features Caroline Henry of Buckeye Relief discussing why Ohio's slower, more deliberate approach to cannabis regulation — capped licensing, phased rule-making, and close collaboration between operators and regulators — has helped it avoid the pitfalls seen in states like Michigan, including a race-to-the-bottom pricing environment and untested product flooding dispensary shelves. Henry also unpacks the persistent stigma around cannabis even in legal markets, the dangers created by Ohio's now-closed intoxicating hemp loophole, and the opportunity and regulatory friction surrounding THC beverages. It's a useful listen for operators and regulators alike interested in how pragmatic, incremental rulemaking and treating regulators as partners rather than adversaries can build a more sustainable state cannabis market. - [Cannabis Was Medicine. Now the Proof Is Catching Up, ft. Joel Stanley and Dr. Marcel Bonn-Miller](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/cannabis-was-medicine-now-the-proof-is-catching-up-ft-joel-stanley-and-dr-marcel-bonn-miller) — Joel Stanley and Dr. Marcel Bonn-Miller: This episode features Joel Stanley, founding CEO of Charlotte's Web and now founder of Ozna Biosciences, and Dr. Marcel Bonn-Miller, a longtime cannabinoid researcher, discussing why proving cannabis as legitimate medicine has been so difficult despite decades of patient evidence and cultural acceptance. They walk through how a 2016 FDA botanical drug guidance finally created a path for whole-plant, multi-compound cannabis drugs to be developed with the same rigor as pharmaceuticals from companies like Pfizer, using their lead autism drug candidate AJA-001 (backed in part by British American Tobacco) as a case study in standardizing, characterizing, and de-risking botanical medicine. It's a useful listen for understanding the science, funding, and regulatory shifts now separating credible cannabinoid drug development from the hype and commoditization of the broader cannabis market. - [Joe Lustberg: What Cannabis Lenders See That Operators Miss](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/joe-lustberg-what-cannabis-lenders-see-that-operators-miss) — Joe Lustberg: In this episode, Bryan Fields talks with Joe Lustberg of Upwise Capital about what cannabis lenders actually look for versus what operators assume matters, drawing on Joe's dual perspective as a cannabis finance broker and as an operator stuck in a two-plus-year zoning and litigation battle to open a dispensary in Southampton, New York. The conversation covers loan-to-cost structures, debt service coverage ratios, why rescheduling and SAFE Banking won't immediately lower rates, how 280E repeal could transform operator profitability, and why location, profitability, and burn capital cushions matter more than hype around federal reform. It's a useful listen for cannabis operators and investors trying to understand real underwriting standards and capital market dynamics across mature and emerging state markets. - [The Hidden Margin Killer for MSOS ft. Braunz Muller](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/the-hidden-margin-killer-for-msos-ft-braunz-muller) — Braunz Muller: In this episode, Bryan Fields talks with Braunz Muller, former National Director of Manufacturing Operations at The Cannabist Company, about why cannabis manufacturers are drowning in data yet still failing to make good decisions. Muller explains how disconnected systems between cultivation, extraction, sales, and finance create margin-killing cycles of overproduction and discounting, why 'yield' is the wrong KPI compared to true THC efficiency, and how dynamic (rather than rigid) SOPs, better data hygiene, and holistic cross-departmental visibility can unlock significant hidden profit in multi-state operations. The conversation offers a practical look at the operational blind spots costing MSOs money and how better data infrastructure — and honest interpretation of that data — can fix them. - [Ed Rosenthal and Greg Baughman: You're Still Growing Cannabis Wrong](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/ed-rosenthal-and-greg-baughman-youre-still-growing-cannabis-wrong) — Guest: This episode features Ed Rosenthal, the legendary cannabis cultivation author, and Greg Baughman of CryoCure, discussing why cannabis post-harvest processes — drying, curing, storage, and distribution — remain stuck in outdated, prohibition-era habits that hurt product freshness, consistency, and farmer economics. They dig into how freeze-drying technology preserves terpenes and cannabinoids far better than traditional drying, why dispensary storage and inconsistent supply chains undermine brand quality, and why cannabis cultivation itself needs to modernize toward efficient row-crop-style farming. The conversation matters for growers, processors, and retailers looking to understand how post-harvest innovation and industry maturation will shape product quality and profitability as the market scales. - [The Legal Market Was Never Built for Payments, Why Cannabis Still Breaks the Rules ft. Aubrey Amatelli](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/the-legal-market-was-never-built-for-payments-why-cannabis-still-breaks-the-rules-ft-aubrey-amatelli) — Aubrey Amatelli: In this episode, PayRio founder Aubrey Amatelli explains why cannabis payment processing remains fundamentally unstable even for companies that follow every card-network rule, drawing on her own experience getting shut down by Mastercard despite building a fully 'compliant' solution. She breaks down how card brands like Visa and Mastercard treat cannabis as a proxy for federal legality, why 180-day fund freezes and sudden shutoffs are an ongoing risk, and how PayRio builds redundancy, KYC-based consumer solutions, and even crypto on-ramps to keep dispensaries funded. The conversation is essential for anyone trying to understand why cannabis payments still don't work like normal retail, and what it will actually take — federal legalization, not just rescheduling — for that to change. - [Gretchen Gailey: Cannabis Industry Has No Idea How DC Works, Why Rescheduling Is Delayed](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/gretchen-gailey-cannabis-industry-has-no-idea-how-dc-works-why-rescheduling-is-delayed) — Gretchen Gailey: Longtime Capitol Hill strategist Gretchen Gailey joins Bryan Fields to explain why the cannabis industry's Washington strategy is fundamentally broken, arguing that occasional fly-ins and small donations can't compete with the sustained, aggressive, politically-savvy presence needed to move federal policy. She breaks down why rescheduling has stalled since Trump's executive order, why the state-by-state model can't produce interstate commerce, why SAFE Banking still matters to small operators, and why the industry needs to fund real lobbying, education, and political pressure campaigns (like her group Project Champion) instead of infighting over narrow carve-outs. It's a candid, insider look at the gap between cannabis industry priorities and how power actually operates in DC.
- [15 Years of Cannabis Trading . Why I'll Sell Early (Unless This Happens) ft. Dan McDermitt](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/15-years-of-cannabis-trading-why-ill-sell-early-unless-this-happens-ft-dan-mcdermitt) — Dan McDermitt: In this episode, 15-year cannabis stock trading veteran Dan McDermitt of ChartGuys joins host Bryan Fields to break down why the cannabis equity sector remains stuck despite years of rescheduling promises, dissecting the unique and often illiquid trading mechanics behind ETFs like MSOS and MSOX. Dan explains the crucial mindset difference between trading and fundamental investing — emphasizing invalidation points, selling into euphoria, and avoiding emotional attachment — and how AI, social media, and algorithmic headline-trading are reshaping market behavior across sectors. The conversation offers practical risk-management lessons for anyone trying to navigate a historically volatile, catalyst-dependent industry without becoming a bag holder. - [Premium vs Scale in Cannabis: Inside Rubicon’s Strategy ft. Margaret Brodie](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/premium-vs-scale-in-cannabis-inside-rubicons-strategy-ft-margaret-brodie) — Margaret Brodie: In this episode, Margaret Brodie of Rubicon Organics explains why the company bet on premium quality and a house-of-brands strategy instead of chasing scale and price competition in the Canadian cannabis market. She details the operational discipline behind that bet — from flower grading and quality evaluation panels to complaint tracking, contracted supply, and resource-allocation frameworks — and shares how Rubicon is now weighing genetics investment, EU GMP certification, added cultivation capacity, and a cautious international expansion into Europe. The conversation offers a candid look at building brand trust in a young, unregulated-feeling industry and making disciplined capital-allocation decisions under real financial constraints. - [Prop 64 Fine Print, Pesticide Drift, The Economics Behind Concentrates ft. Micah Anderson](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/prop-64-fine-print-pesticide-drift-the-economics-behind-concentrates-ft-micah-anderson) — Micah Anderson: Micah Anderson of Leaf Brands joins Bryan Fields to dissect why California's Prop 64 rollout has left the legal cannabis market shrinking despite voter approval, and what a regulatory rewrite might look like. The conversation dives deep into the economics of concentrate production — including how pesticide drift from neighboring farms (not the cannabis industry itself) drives costly product failures — and why Leaf built its own large-scale farm and expanded into New York to control supply chain quality. Anderson also discusses reviving Leaf's CBD wellness brand with NBA star Jimmy Butler following Trump's hemp/CBD executive order, and shares an honest, mixed-results account of trying to add a Bitcoin treasury strategy to a cannabis company. - [JB (Cheech & Chong CEO): Building a National Cannabis Brand Through Trial, Error & Partnership](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/jb-cheech-chong-ceo-building-a-national-cannabis-brand-through-trial-error-partnership) — Guest: In this episode, JB, CEO of Cheech & Chong, breaks down how the iconic 50-year-old brand built a national cannabis and hemp beverage business through partnership, reverse IP licensing, and trial-and-error expansion across nearly 20 states and several international markets. He discusses the tension and complementary opportunity between MSOs and big tobacco as federal legislation evolves, how hemp beverages act as a low-dose on-ramp to cannabis rather than a competitor, and why brand trust and local partnership — not vertical control — have been the keys to scaling nationally despite a fragmented, state-by-state regulatory landscape. - [Cannabis Beverages Are Bringing New Consumers Into Cannabis ft Kristin & Eric Rogers](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/cannabis-beverages-are-bringing-new-consumers-into-cannabis-ft-kristin-eric-rogers) — Kristin & Eric Rogers: This episode features Kristin and Eric Rogers, co-founders of cannabis beverage brand Levia, discussing how effects-based drinks are pulling new, often non-smoking consumers into cannabis. They dig into how dosing, formulation, and packaging must adapt state by state, why beverages offer faster onset and more predictable offset than edibles, the role of hemp beverages in expanding market reach, and the ongoing challenge of educating regulators, budtenders, and consumers about mixing cannabis with alcohol and dosing responsibly. It's a useful listen for anyone curious about how cannabis beverage brands build consistency, navigate regulation, and position themselves as a bridge between alcohol culture and cannabis. - [Hidden Growth Unmasked: Rescheduling, the Farm Bill & What Comes Next ft Trent Woloveck](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/hidden-growth-unmasked-rescheduling-the-farm-bill-what-comes-next-ft-trent-woloveck) — Trent Woloveck - [Most Cannabis Marketing Fails Because It Is Asked to Solve the Wrong Problems ft. John Shute](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/most-cannabis-marketing-fails-because-it-is-asked-to-solve-the-wrong-problems-ft-john-shute) — John Shute: In this episode, Bryan Fields talks with John Shute of Puff Creative about why so much cannabis marketing spend gets wasted — from over-reliance on untrackable social media to neglected email marketing, weak store-locator data, and disconnected website systems. John breaks down how brands and retailers can use tools like segmentation, co-marketing platforms, and store-locator analytics to make every dollar trackable, why niching down and prioritizing retention beats chasing SKUs and virality, and why marketing budgets are often the first (and wrongest) thing cut when leadership doesn't understand the ROI already in place. - [How Top Teams Balance Art and Process in Extraction ft. Brian Adams](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/how-top-teams-balance-art-and-process-in-extraction-ft-brian-adams) — Brian Adams: In this episode, Brian Adams of Nimbus discusses why rigid, one-size-fits-all extraction SOPs fail in practice, how his team learned to adjust processes based on material variability, and why proactively defining an end goal — yield versus flavor and color — beats reactive downstream fixes. The conversation also covers the hidden importance and inconsistency risks of vape hardware, the economics of when a brand should outsource extraction rather than run it in-house, why well-made BHO can rival or beat solventless concentrates on purity, and the industry's fight against a looming ballot initiative to roll back adult-use cannabis in Massachusetts. - [Robotics vs Automation in Cannabis Manufacturing ft. Nohtal Partansky](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/robotics-vs-automation-in-cannabis-manufacturing-ft-nohtal-partansky) — Nohtal Partansky: In this episode, Bryan Fields talks with Nohtal Partansky, founder of Stardust Robotics, about the real difference between automation and robotics in cannabis manufacturing, and why true feedback-driven robotic systems remain rare in the industry. Drawing on his background at NASA/JPL and running a cannabis co-packing company, Nohtal explains how to prioritize automation investments around bottlenecks rather than easy wins, how his company designs, deploys, and iterates machines like Chico and Stardust, and why he believes fully automated "lights-out" cannabis facilities are still roughly 20 years away due to capital, scale, and regulatory instability. - [Building Jaunty Into One of New York’s Top Cannabis Brands ft. Nicolas Guarino](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/building-jaunty-into-one-of-new-yorks-top-cannabis-brands-ft-nicolas-guarino) — Nicolas Guarino: Nicolas Guarino, co-founder and CEO of New York cannabis brand Jaunty, joins The Dime to trace his path from a failed CBD startup that nearly bankrupted him to building one of New York's top-selling cannabis vape and concentrate brands after the state's 2022 legal market launch. The conversation digs into the brutal early days of New York's slow rollout, the importance of brand consistency and supplier relationships, the hidden cash-flow traps of fast growth, and what it will take for New York's cannabis market to grow from $1.8 billion toward its $4-6 billion potential. It's a candid look at operator-level survival, margin compression, and scaling strategy in one of the country's most-watched limited license cannabis markets. - [How Charlotte’s Web Unlocked Medical CBD ft. Bill Morachnick](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/how-charlottes-web-unlocked-medical-cbd-ft-bill-morachnick) — Bill Morachnick - [The Playbook Behind Consistent Cannabis Products at Scale ft. Ryan Crandall](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/the-playbook-behind-consistent-cannabis-products-at-scale-ft-ryan-crandall) — Ryan Crandall: In this episode of The Dime, host Bryan Fields talks with Ryan Crandall, Chief Commercial Officer of MariMed, about how the multi-state cannabis operator builds consistent, high-quality edibles and flower products across a fragmented, state-by-state regulatory system. The conversation covers MariMed's brand portfolio (Betty's Eddies, Nature's Heritage, InHouse, Bubby's Baked, and Vibations), the behind-the-scenes R&D and testing processes used to standardize dosing and quality, the role of budtender education and in-store experiences in building trust, and emerging opportunities and challenges around cannabinoid drinks, THCV/CBG effects, hemp-derived products, and interstate expansion. - [Schedule III Changes Everything — This Is Just the Beginning](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/schedule-iii-changes-everything-this-is-just-the-beginning) — Guest: This emergency episode of The Dime breaks down the same-day executive order moving cannabis toward Schedule III, featuring cannabinoid manufacturing experts Zach Edge and Matthew Moore of RHO Advisory and Madron Process Development. They unpack what rescheduling actually changes (and doesn't) for GMP compliance, interstate commerce, medical research access, hemp policy, and veteran access to CBD, while explaining why supply chain and extraction operators face the biggest strategic decisions ahead. It's a useful primer for understanding why this policy shift matters, who benefits first, and what regulatory hurdles (like 21 CFR Part 211 and rulemaking) still lie ahead. - [Inside SNDL’s Hidden Scale: Global Reach & Supply Chain Powerhouse ft. Tyler Robson](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/inside-sndls-hidden-scale-global-reach-supply-chain-powerhouse-ft-tyler-robson) — Tyler Robson - [You’re Thinking About Debt Wrong: The Secret to Smart Financing ft. Adam Stettner](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/youre-thinking-about-debt-wrong-the-secret-to-smart-financing-ft-adam-stettner) — Adam Stettner: In this episode of The Dime, Fund Canna CEO Adam Stettner joins hosts Bryan Fields and Kellen Finney to reframe how cannabis operators should think about debt — not as inherently bad, but as a tool that, when the cost of capital is lower than a business's margins, can be used to accelerate growth without tying up scarce cash. Stettner walks through how his firm underwrites cannabis businesses across cultivation, manufacturing, retail, and ancillary categories despite regulatory complexity, banking restrictions, and thin bankability in the space, and shares real examples of clients who scaled hundreds of percent by revolving short-term capital rather than relying solely on their own cash. The conversation matters for cannabis operators and investors trying to understand smart financing structures, working capital strategy, and how specialized lenders evaluate risk in a federally illegal, highly nuanced industry. - [How LEVEL Delivers Effects-Based Cannabis Tablets ft. Chris Emerson](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/how-level-delivers-effects-based-cannabis-tablets-ft-chris-emerson) — Chris Emerson: In this episode of The Dime, Bryan Fields and Kellan Finney talk with Chris Emerson, founder of Level, about building an effects-based cannabinoid tablet company grounded in his PhD chemistry background. Emerson details how Level engineers cannabinoid and terpene ratios to reliably deliver targeted experiences like energy, sleep, or socialization, and why rigorous in-process analytical testing, standardized (non-strain-specific) formulations, and real-world research studies are core to product consistency, multi-state expansion, and consumer trust. The conversation also covers the decline of medical cannabis markets, the company's hemp-market strategy, and emerging cannabinoids like THCV, CBDV, and acidic cannabinoids that could shape the next generation of effects-based products. - [What Tobacco and Alcohol Taught Me About Cannabis. ft. Nick Kenny](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/what-tobacco-and-alcohol-taught-me-about-cannabis-ft-nick-kenny) — Nick Kenny: In this episode of The Dime, hosts Bryan Fields and Kellan Finney sit down with global strategic advisor Nick Kenny, a former tobacco industry marketing executive turned cannabis consultant, to unpack how Big Tobacco and alcohol companies are quietly investing in cannabis R&D and IP while waiting for federal stability before entering the plant-touching US market. Kenny explains why regulatory fragmentation, not lack of revenue, keeps major players on the sidelines, how they're focusing on adjacent, non-plant-touching technologies like vapor devices and oral pouches, and what today's cannabis operators can learn from tobacco's decades-long innovation cycle around standardization, consumer data, and brand differentiation. - [The Amazon of THC, How Edibles.com Will Take Cannabis National, ft. Thomas Winstanley](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/the-amazon-of-thc-how-ediblescom-will-take-cannabis-national-ft-thomas-winstanley) — Thomas Winstanley: In this episode of The Dime, Bryan Fields and Kellan Finney sit down with Thomas Winstanley, who left his role building Theory Wellness's cannabis retail and product empire to launch Edibles.com, a DTC/wholesale hemp marketplace backed by Edible Arrangements' parent company. The conversation covers how Edibles.com curates and vets brands like Wana, Wyld, and Kanha, leverages Edible Brands' national fulfillment infrastructure, navigates the volatile federal and state hemp regulatory landscape, and is building out retail (including a possible franchise model) and product expansion strategies. It offers a candid look at what it takes for a legacy consumer brand to enter the THC space and scale it responsibly amid looming price compression and policy uncertainty. - [Introducing Singular: How Active's Modular Vape Platform Changes Everything ft. Alex Kwon](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/introducing-singular-how-actives-modular-vape-platform-changes-everything-ft-alex-kwon) — Alex Kwon: In this episode of The Dime, Alex Kwon of Active joins hosts Bryan Fields and Kellen Finney to unveil Singular, described as the industry's first universal, modular vape platform designed to bridge the reliability of 510 cartridges with the sleek usability and brand-specific form factors of all-in-one vapes. Kwon walks through the multi-year R&D journey behind the platform — including interchangeable engines, a 510 adapter, sustainability concerns around single-use disposables, and lessons drawn from the e-cigarette and tobacco industries — explaining why Active believes modularity, not another closed pod system, is the future of cannabis vape hardware. The conversation offers a behind-the-scenes look at product development, supply chain resilience, and how manufacturers balance customer feedback with long-term technology bets. - [The Lyft Playbook for Cannabis: Building Trust Through Tech ft. Ashwin Raj](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/the-lyft-playbook-for-cannabis-building-trust-through-tech-ft-ashwin-raj) — Playbook for Cannabis: Building Trust Through Tech ft. Ashwin Raj: In this episode of The Dime, LeafLink CEO Ashwin Raj discusses his transition from Lyft, Visa, Amazon, and EzCater into the cannabis industry, and how he approached his first 100 days by listening closely to customers and quickly reversing an unpopular pricing change. The conversation covers LeafLink's marketplace and banking strategy (including the Dharma Financial acquisition), how to balance competing customer demands while building product roadmaps, the role of hemp and regulatory fragmentation in shaping industry consolidation, and where AI fits into LeafLink's future plans. It's a useful listen for anyone interested in how enterprise tech leadership and trust-building translate into building infrastructure for the cannabis B2B marketplace. - [Built for Consolidation, Guided by Icahn-Like Discipline, and Poised for Cannabis’ Next Iteration, ft Jared Maloof](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/built-for-consolidation-guided-by-icahn-like-discipline-and-poised-for-cannabis-next-iteration-ft-jared-maloof) — Jared Maloof: This episode of The Dime features Jared Maloof, CEO of Standard Wellness, tracing his path from a finance and legal career at Carl Icahn's companies into building a vertically integrated multi-state cannabis operator across Ohio, Utah, Missouri, and Maryland. The conversation digs into the operational chaos of running vertically integrated businesses across states with wildly different regulations, product forms, and cultivation environments, the existential threat posed by unregulated hemp-derived THC products, and why Maloof believes a looming multi-billion-dollar industry debt wall will trigger consolidation and asset acquisition opportunities for disciplined operators. It's a useful listen for anyone trying to understand the practical realities of scaling a cannabis MSO, the hemp/THCA competitive threat, and what institutional capital is really waiting for before entering the space. - [Chris Ball: Betting It All — What It Really Takes to Build a Brand With Your Name on It: Pain, Patience, and Relentless Faith](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/chris-ball-betting-it-all-what-it-really-takes-to-build-a-brand-with-your-name-on-it-pain-patience-and-relentless-faith) — Chris Ball - [$28.4 Billion Dollar Hemp Industry Can’t Be Put Back in the Bottle ft Jim Higdon](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/284-billion-dollar-hemp-industry-cant-be-put-back-in-the-bottle-ft-jim-higdon) — Jim Higdon - [Largest Medical Cannabis & Cancer Study Ever: Can These Findings Push Rescheduling? ft Ryan Castle](https://www.dimepodcast.com/episodes/largest-medical-cannabis-cancer-study-ever-can-these-findings-push-rescheduling-ft-ryan-castle) — Ryan Castle - [Strategy Truths & Lies, Mature Industries Already Know ft.
