This week we sparked up Black Maple from Dragonfly, and right out of the jar… yeah, the name tracks.Dark, sweet, maple syrup vibes. Not the fake pancake syrup from childhood. We’re talking the thick, rich, Costco real-maple kind that makes you question every breakfast decision you’ve made before now.Black Maple comes in as a true hybrid bred from Dulce de Uva x Sherbanger, and this one hit interesting.For us, the effects came on pretty head-first. Forehead, temples, behind the eyes, that “okay I definitely feel this” pressure, but without tipping into couch-lock territory. It had some lift thanks to the pinene presence, but didn’t fully commit to being an energetic daytime strain either.Basically? It lives in that weird middle ground.Top terpenes:Beta-CaryophylleneLimoneneAlpha-PineneBeta-PineneCannabinoid profile included trace amounts of:Delta-9 THC, THCV-A, CBG, CBC-A, CBD-A, and CBG-ATranslation? More going on than just “big THC number go brrrr.”And honestly… that became part of the conversation.Because somewhere in this episode we started talking about how chasing the highest THC is still one of the dumbest shopping habits in cannabis.Black Maple wasn’t bad. Not even close.It looked great.Smelled fantastic.Flavor was solid.Effects got better as it settled in.But compared to some strain combos we’ve mixed lately? It felt like this one might actually shine more as a pairing strain than a solo act.Which led us down a whole rabbit hole of cannabis blending, terp stacking, entourage effect conversations, and whether more people should be intentionally mixing strains instead of always hunting the newest hype jar.Best reported tendencies from this one?HappyRelaxedFocusedMild pain reliefWould we smoke it again? Yeah.Would we reach for it over some of our favorite custom combos? Probably not.But if you’ve had Black Maple from a different grower or batch, your mileage may absolutely vary because cannabis is wildly batch-dependent.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

This week’s Sesh starts where a lot of great conversations do: realizing you’ve been trying to smoke an empty vaporizer like an absolute idiot.From there? Chaos.We get into why joints have officially become the preferred method, why glass somehow feels harsher as you get older, rolling paper debates, weird product tangents, and then somehow take a hard left into one of the more honest conversations we’ve had in a minute.We talk about whether the education system is actually preparing people for real life… or just training people to follow a script that doesn’t exist anymore.College degrees.MBAs.Job hunting.Why some companies want ridiculous credentials for jobs that absolutely do not need them.Why younger generations are rethinking work entirely.Why older generations stayed put.And what “valuable work” even means now.We also get into:Why mentorship seems way harder to find nowWhether college is still worth itMike Rowe, dirty jobs, and overlooked careersWhy so many people feel disconnected from the work they doSociety rewarding conflict over contributionMen, employment, and some uncomfortable realities around motivation and purposeBasically… one of those episodes where we started talking about rolling joints and somehow ended up questioning modern civilization.Classic.If you’ve ever questioned school, your career path, or why adulthood feels like everyone’s making it up as they go… this one’s for you.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

Blue Pluto came in swinging.Not soft.Not polite.Not the kind of strain that knocks gently and asks if now is a good time.This one had us coughing early, noticing the pine right away, and then realizing it was less of a body-melter and more of a “sit with yourself for a second” kind of strain.Blue Pluto is an indica-dominant hybrid, usually connected to Pluto Kush crossed with an unknown strain. The public info on this one is pretty thin, so we’re not pretending this is some perfectly documented family tree. What we can say is this: it feels like it comes from that Pluto world. Piney, slightly sweet, heady, and a little spacey without fully dragging you into the couch.The likely terpene profile leans toward myrcene, caryophyllene, limonene, and possibly pinene. In normal human words, that means you may notice pine, citrus, spice, earth, and that slightly sharp “back of the lungs” feeling that made this episode start with a cough warning.Effect-wise, Blue Pluto was interesting. It was calming, but not sleepy. Focused, but not racy. Heady, but not foggy. We both noticed it more in the head and neck than as a full-body pain relief strain. This probably would not be my first pick for heavy pain, headaches, or deep relaxation, but for introspection, breathwork, racing, reading, or getting into a focused mental pocket, there’s something there.This episode gets into how cannabis changes depending on your mood, stress level, and what your body is already carrying. Same strain, different day, different human, different result.Blue Pluto might not be the superstar strain of the year, but it gave us a real conversation about anxiety, meditation, focus, job stress, breathing, and learning how to actually check in with yourself instead of just bulldozing through the day.A little coughy.A little piney.A little cosmic therapy session in disguise.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

This episode starts with passing joints and gifted flower, then somehow spirals into loneliness, porn brain, social media validation, generational disconnect, masculinity, money, Lyme disease, Fight Club, and why cannabis still feels like one of the last real community experiences left. Basically… a normal episode of The Sesh.You’ll hear Brandon and Jesse unpack the weird reality of modern connection. Why people are more “plugged in” than ever but somehow feel more isolated. Why sharing a joint with someone hits different than smoking alone. And how a lot of us have slowly traded physical community for digital performance without even realizing it.There’s also a deep dive into how social media, porn culture, online validation, and constant comparison may be changing the way people connect, date, work, and even see themselves. Some of the conversation gets philosophical, some gets wildly off the rails, and some of it gets surprisingly personal.Somewhere in the middle:• Ice Cream Cake becomes a “time machine”• Fight Club gets brought into the conversation• The Island Boys catch a stray• Jesse accidentally forgets what he was talking about mid-thought• Brandon questions whether modern society is quietly starving for real human connectionAnd honestly? That’s kind of the whole episode.This one is less about cannabis itself and more about the thing cannabis often creates when it’s shared correctly:conversation, connection, honesty, and people actually slowing down long enough to talk.If you’ve ever felt disconnected, overwhelmed by social media, stuck in your own head, or just tired of fake interactions, this episode will probably hit somewhere familiar.As always, roll something up, sit with us for a bit, and welcome to The Sesh.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

Not loud. Not flashy. Not trying to kick the door in. It just shows up, sits down, and quietly tells your body to calm the hell down.In this episode, we review 5280 from Betty Wellness, a local Utah grow that came through soft, smooth, and way more interesting than the name makes it sound.The flavor starts mild with a little minty note, then settles into more of a spicy back-end as the bowl opens up. Nothing aggressive, nothing harsh, just a subtle smoke that builds into a calm, steady presence.What’s in it:Lineage: Dante’s Inferno x RS11THC: around 20%Top terpenes:• Beta-Caryophyllene• Humulene• Bisabolol• Limonene• LinaloolWhat we felt:Calm bodyClear headLight dry mouth, mostly tongueQuiet focusLess fidgetyRelaxed without feeling dumbThis one leaned indica, but not “cancel your day” indica. More like a hiking strain, yardwork strain, gym strain, or “I need to get through tasks without my body vibrating like a shopping cart wheel” kind of strain.We also get into Utah hiking weather, movie theaters being wildly overpriced, popcorn economics, streaming brain rot, instant gratification, and how comfort has somehow made all of us worse at waiting.If you’re looking for something heavy and dramatic, this probably isn’t it.But if you want a smooth, calm, functional strain that helps your body settle without making your brain useless, 5280 is a solid one.Stay curious.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

You know that moment,you’re in the corner, sliding, locked in…nothing else exists.That’s what we’re chasing in this one.We start with racing, dirt tracks, figuring it out lap by lap…but it turns into something bigger.Because that feeling?It’s not about the game.It’s about being fully there.We get into:• Why flow state feels like time disappears• The moment fear leaves, and why that’s dangerous• How most people are distracted out of their own lives• Why job hunting, connection, and confidence all come from the same place• The real reason people feel disconnected, even when they’re together• And how something as simple as putting your phone down changes everythingThere’s a line in here that stuck:You don’t need a better life.You need to actually be in the one you’re living.This one starts fun…but it lands somewhere real.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

First Class Funk is a weird one in the best way.This strain had that yin and yang thing going on hard. Body felt heavy, relaxed, and calm, while the head stayed clear, present, and ready to talk. Not sleepy. Not foggy. Just balanced in a way that really stood out.And the flavor makes total sense when you look at what usually shows up in this strain. First Class Funk commonly leans on limonene, caryophyllene, and pinene, so you get that funky, peppery, earthy, slightly bright punch right up front. That GMO and Jet Fuel Gelato background definitely shows up here too. What we liked most was how present it felt. Shoulders dropped, body chilled out, but the mind didn’t shut off. It felt grounded without getting dull. Bigger hits came in a little hot on the throat, but once it settled, it was super nice.This feels like a great strain for a walk, the gym, hanging out, or just taking the edge off without getting flattened.If you want something that relaxes the body without turning your brain off, First Class Funk is worth checking out.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

This one starts off loose and funny… then turns into something way deeper.What begins as a random Sesh turns into one of those conversations about life, connection, pain, service, identity, and what actually matters when all the noise gets stripped away.We bounce from birthdays, pain balm, and getting a little too lifted… into martial arts, poverty, religion, race, community, loneliness, love, and why most people are starving to just feel seen.This episode is a reminder that real connection still matters.That helping people matters.That being yourself matters.And that a lot of us are carrying way more than we let on.We talk about the moments that change you forever, the kind that make you realize how much you’ve taken for granted, and how something small to you can mean everything to someone else.We also get into why people hide, why so many relationships stay surface-level, and what happens when somebody finally feels safe enough to be fully themselves.It’s funny, raw, thoughtful, a little all over the place, and honestly… one of those episodes that says more than it means to.In this one:• birthday chaos and a very high mom moment• martial arts, tai chi, and why movement matters• how poverty changes perspective fast• why service hits different when nothing is expected back• religion, shame, forgiveness, and conditional love• race, identity, and how people get taught division• what it means to actually feel seen• why being yourself works better than trying to performThis one is less about having answers and more about remembering what’s real.Stay curious.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

San Fernando Valley OG is one of those strains that doesn’t rush you… it settles you.Smooth inhale, calm head, relaxed body, then out of nowhere you realize you’ve melted into the chair a little more than planned.In this episode, we break down San Fernando Valley OG from Fire Star and how it actually shows up in real life, not just on paper. The flavor leans sour, earthy, a little cheesy on the back end, and surprisingly solid for older flower.What’s driving that experience:Terpenes you’ll usually see:• Myrcene – that heavy, body-relax feel• Caryophyllene – adds a little spice, helps take the edge off stress• Limonene – keeps your head from going fully foggy• Linalool – soft, calming, slightly floral layerThis combo is why it feels balanced at first… but if you keep going, it leans more into that relaxed, almost sleepy zone.Cannabinoids (typical range):• THC: ~18–24%• CBD: usually very low, often <1%• CBN: [Inference] may be slightly elevated in older flower, which can add to that sleepy, slower feelSo even if the THC doesn’t look crazy, the experience stacks differently because of how everything works together.What we actually felt from it:Calm, steady headRelaxed body without instant knockoutSlow creeper onsetClear at first, heavier if you keep goingThis isn’t a “go conquer the world” strain.It’s more like… finish what you’re doing, then chill.We also get into dry herb vapes vs joints, why hand-rolled still wins for flavor early on, kombucha experiments, and the reality of 4/20 deals, good for your stash, rough on your wallet.If you like something that lets you stay present but takes the edge off your body, San Fernando Valley OG does that really well.Stay curious.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

This one’s for anyone trying to figure out where they fit while building something real.We got honest on this episode. Jobs, identity, money, purpose… all of it.What happens when you start getting traction somewhere else, but it still doesn’t feel like “the thing”?We talk about that weird middle space.Between building your own path and working for someone else.Between chasing freedom and needing stability.There’s a lot in here:• Getting interviews after actually applying yourself• Why responsibility can feel better than chasing a check• Letting go of doing everything yourself and building a team• Why content works better when it feels like a conversation, not a strategy• The truth about social media… it was supposed to be connectionWe also get into sales, rejection, and why most people overcomplicate it.Spoiler, people don’t want to be sold. They want to feel understood.And somewhere in the middle of all that, we realized something simple:The more you try to sound like everyone else, the more people tune out.The more you just show up as you, the more things start working.This one’s less about cannabis, more about life.But honestly… that’s kind of the point.If you’ve ever felt stuck between where you are and where you want to go, this one will hit.Stay curious.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.
