Welcome home. We are W N, S T, Dallas, Baltimore, Baltimore, positive. We are. Am 1570 find us out on the dial. Make sure you set a spot for us. We’re gonna be getting together next Friday. My birthday is next weekend. Luke had his candles and his cake and his Oreo baseball. This week, we’re gonna The Raven scratch offs giveaway. On Friday, we’re going to be a pizza Johns in Essex. That is my it’s not really my homeland. You never Dundalk, I never admits to Essex, but they got a great pizza there. They also have a crab cake that’s delicious. It’s Luke’s birthday, so I’m going to get him a, probably a chocolate milkshake. He seems like a chocolate kind of guy. Next Friday, two to five come by grab a Mari lotto ticket from us, our friends at Jiffy, new multi care, putting sound on the road. And of course, our oyster tour in progress, brought to you by friends at Liberty, pure solutions, one 800 clean water. And, of course, our friends at curio wellness, I, you know, trying to dust off here a little bit. Wendy brown fine is our chief cannabis officer. She is the Chief Brand Officer for all things curio wellness and foreign daughter. I’ve decided to go with purple and feel victorious this week. I mean, it was a really good effort against the bills. I’m looking forward to this Bengals game, but this is a big weekend, not just for Baltimore and baseball this week and all of that stuff and all the other fun things. My buddy Leonard raskins, got his crab thesis weekend, but the biggest party of the year is Friday night. And I know you have personal involvement in this, because it rocked your world to go to a maritime magic, maritime matches, living classrooms, foundation, Wendy’s here as part of that, and you’ve come by with James Bond. And James came by my crab cake tour two weeks ago at least. But we’re up on it now in a baseball playoff week and a big football week. I hear weather’s gonna hold up 75 and not sunny after dark on Friday night. But tell everybody about maritime magic a little bit, because I’m going to talk about this move product. I’m going to talk about Terrapins. We’re gonna talk about all sorts of things in regard to cannabis space, but for you guys as a sponsor, but this has like, some heart strings for you, because it really is. I say it out loud. I said it since Brian Billick invited me 20 years ago. It’s the best party of the year maritime magic, yeah,

Wendy Bronfein  02:02

for a wonderful organization. So living classrooms Foundation, we are philanthropically involved with them as an organization. I sit on the board, but this year’s, it’s a 36 iteration of maritime magic. That’s

Nestor Aparicio  02:19

my lucky number. 36 is my John Martin, everybody knows not 36 is my number. Yes. So

Wendy Bronfein  02:25

you know they’re they’re located on tame street down on the harbor. And the event takes over that whole sort of cul de sac where they sit. And it brings out food purveyors and beverage purveyors from the area, like all kinds of local features, was every

Nestor Aparicio  02:44

of my sponsors are there. Faithley is just going to be there. Beaumont, there. A lot of our the people you hear about, because it really is a lift Baltimore thing. I mean, absolutely it’s a best of Balt. It is the best of Baltimore event kind of, sort of no offense to Baltimore magazine, because I know you won some awards, and I don’t want upset Max. She won’t buy me crab cakes and have movies with me anymore. But it is, it’s, it’s the best event of the year outside, especially when the weather’s right. It is, you see the dominoes, you’re right on the water. You get dressed up. The band’s great. You should face off. You see people you like. You might even, I don’t know, meet a life partner there. Who knows, right?

Wendy Bronfein  03:21

Yeah. So when I went in 2016 Yeah, I ran into my now husband, and the rest was sort of history after that. So yeah, think of where I was. If you’re going and you’re single, it might be a special evening

Nestor Aparicio  03:38

well, and it is kind of, it’s a it’s a wide mix of people and a wide mix of great food and the people living classrooms. And listen, James has been on many, many times talking about all the work they do in the community, workforce development, believe it or not. And Wendy, I know you have no problem this, and I would say for our friends at Liberty pure as well as you sponsoring our 26th anniversary and the whole oyster thing we’re doing when you get James Bond on and start talking about water and boats and being out on the water, and she sailed, and he goes through all that he knew more about oysters that he might know about workforce. He knew we sat here to 20 minutes on oysters, and Dami came over and then, and he owes me for this, and I know he’s gonna feed me on Friday. And by the way, thank you. Way, thank you that we’re going to be a guest with you. And I’m looking forward to you, my wife and your husband like been hanging out at Lake Street dive car without me, but, um, James came to fadelies last week, and Dami came on the set. And look, you’ve done live radio with me, where I’m out, I’m I’m focused. Things are working and looking around. And I got lottery tickets and all that. She brought me oysters, and as we I was talking about them, he was eating them. So we’re like, doing the show together, and we’re like, yeah, that’s oysters. And tell me about the bay, and Damien’s telling me about oysters, and they oxygenate the bay, and they make the crab cakes good. And I look down, and all the oysters are gone. And James like he ate them on camera tonight, eating them so he’s better. He better feed me on Friday night. Living classrooms, foundations, living classrooms.org, is the way to find our friends at living classrooms. The way to find our friends at curio wellness is basically, it’s getting a car. It’s adult use. Now we always, always, the reason we do these segments try to educate people about the plan, I will have a story about Parkinson’s and my my mother in law’s husband and battling. When I know more about it, I could talk about it, but there’s a sativa product that’s helping him right now with balancing and different things. In regard to Parkinson’s, you know, Wendy, I got my wife, she’s been taking care of all her family less. It’s amazing when we say medicinal and medical, and you got a card, and I know 20 years ago when I heard about this in California, it’s like, yeah, yeah, yeah, sure, yeah, it’s medicine. Sure, it is. It’s medicine. And you know, I’ve come a long way, and I don’t know where you’ve come from 20 years ago and what the stigmas and all of those kinds of things, but people are getting real help. And beginning with your father and the story we did last year with Gina shock that I’d love to redo for the holidays this year, bring some crab cakes by but people come in with real problems to curio wellness and to the cannabis space, and they’re finding medical help, medicinal help, things that make their lives better.

Wendy Bronfein  06:20

Oh, absolutely. I mean, I think, you know, for for many years, the program was medical only, and we would see kind of a lot more people through the lens of, you know, a diagnosis of a specific condition, like in you’re saying, like Parkinson’s and others, or other, just general health ailments now that we are medical and adult use, what’s interesting is we still see talk to a lot of people who are still using it therapeutically, even though they’re accessing it through adult use. So they may have not signed up for medical and the some of the perks that that side of the program offers, but their purpose for shopping is exactly the same. And you know, at our at our stores, foreign daughter, we have Doctor Nina Fergus on staff, and so she does free consults in person and zoom with people, whether you’re medical or adult use, so she can help guide you to the right solutions as you engage in the dispensary purchasing process. Well, when

Nestor Aparicio  07:19

people come in, and I say this all the time, they come in, they come in, they have an issue, they have a problem. They talk about it. You try to find a product, and it can really be overwhelming just understanding. I heard you speaking to my my wife, in regard to cannabinoids and terpenes and making sure you have the right profile and and dare I would say, and I don’t know enough about this, because I haven’t been thankfully, I don’t go to doctors a whole lot, but that a doctor would know this cannabinoid and this terpene and this profile and this, this can be helpful to you for pain, inflammation, any number of things. But there is a point. Are you seeing more of that now that it’s Dare I say we’re talking about it, you know, a drug out loud the 20 years ago, they’d throw me off the radio, I guess, or just throw, you know, just people. It just was not accepted. And I know doctors, when my wife had cancer 1011, years ago, they sort of winked and nudged a little bit at Hopkinson. Don’t smoke it because of her rest, because of her her lungs when she was battling cancer twice. But they did acknowledge that there were elements that would help. Now, wasn’t legal, couldn’t get gummies, couldn’t make it, couldn’t have profile, like all of the things that make it on the up and up and make it where you can get a diagnosis and get relief or help in any way. Is it coming around a little bit like that? I mean, what will a Parkinson’s patient have a doctor now that would say this is legal now it’s on the up and up, and it works and and it the efficacy is there, because that’s at the root of everything you do, is efficacy, and not only on the up and up, but scientifically saying this helps gi tracts, this is real.

Wendy Bronfein  08:57

Yeah, well, there’s talk about changing the scheduling of cannabis. So it’s right now. It’s schedule one, like, which is akin to, like, heroin and LSD and things like that. Another reason to

Nestor Aparicio  09:07

vote the right way next month. That’s all, yeah, yeah, yeah. The but

Wendy Bronfein  09:11

this, but the the discussion right now is to move it to schedule three. We would argue that it should be descheduled. It was not originally on the schedule, and it doesn’t really need to live there, but even if you move it to schedule three, it will open up the ability to more formally research it, and that can do a lot of the debunking of the myths. Because right now, we know a lot of these things because we have these lived experiences of people who are in legal markets and using it and finding relief, but it’s not been formally research in the United States, because it’s very hard to do that given the schedule one status. So when it comes to the physicians, that carries into you know, it’s not been curriculum in medical school and sort of continuing education, but there are many physicians and other healthcare professionals who have taken upon themselves. To educate, and so you can work with someone who is quite informed. And the University of Maryland’s pharmacy school developed a cannabis program, a graduate level program that has both people from the US as well as internationally participating. And that is another great resource to improve the education our times

Nestor Aparicio  10:20

will shorten, our windows shorter this week, because you have some things. And I got ravens Orioles. We got maritime magic and all that, just a few products because it’s fall time. I had three different friends of mine, one who’s a curio user and a pal. Throw me the picture, the screenshot of my website with the pumpkin. The pumpkin vapes, and that caught his attention so of flavors and different you know, and obviously gummies and different things. And we always kid about Valentine’s Day, and you’re sort of your your your love products, and then being strawberry and red and where the colors are and the packaging and all of that. But fall is I haven’t had an apple cider donut, but I keep passing them in the wise and I’m like, I just don’t want six of them. I only want one or two. But it is that time of the year, and I think, you know, you bring new products to market, and I know you got a whole bunch of new flower with weird names too, yeah.

Wendy Bronfein  11:17

So we have, so there’s a vape line that you’re talking about that’s called fused. They’re all in one units of so disposable vapes, and they come in different flavors. And so, of course, there is a pumpkin spice that is now out the other line, flower by Edie Parker, which also has all in one vape units. They have a series of holiday specialty flavors that are going to be released. And then, you know,

Nestor Aparicio  11:48

even Christmas the first week October, already, yeah, I’m

Wendy Bronfein  11:51

just giving you a preview. I’m not saying, you know, go have a

Nestor Aparicio  11:54

cramp. I’m trying to think of eggnog. Oh, no, that

Wendy Bronfein  11:59

would be good, though. Yeah. Actually, no,

Nestor Aparicio  12:01

no. Really good is

Wendy Bronfein  12:03

just a glass of eggnog from the fridge and the the fireball chew that we make, because fireball and eggnog that that cinnamony flavor with the eggnog, that would be good. Um, then

Nestor Aparicio  12:17

apple spice. I haven’t had anything pumpkin yet. Please, let me get let me get through Halloween at least here. Yeah,

Wendy Bronfein  12:23

but no, the black the black cherry vanilla chew from our classic flavor. That’s that would be great in this like warm fall season. As I have never

Nestor Aparicio  12:34

tried that. I see it all the time, but I’ve never tried that.

Wendy Bronfein  12:38

Yeah, people love the black cherry vanilla. That’s a very popular flavor, you know, I think, from a mood perspective, I think, like even the Tur the lemon lime Terp chew, is just sort of ideal for those crisp fall days. And you know, if you’re going hiking or just enjoying the weekend and the leaves change and all that kind of stuff. And on the flower front, yeah, there’s a bunch of new strains out, and some have some crazy names, some of which I’m not sure if I should even say. They’re not curse words, but they’re just kind of raunchy in a way that, like you don’t want to say it on the

Nestor Aparicio  13:12

radio. I mean, can’t you be

Wendy Bronfein  13:15

Yeah, yes, we could, but sometimes

Nestor Aparicio  13:18

piss is a good name, but I don’t know that I’d buy it as a strain. I mean, it wouldn’t attract me to it, you know, I’m saying,

Wendy Bronfein  13:24

but like, but that’s an example where it’s like, it has notoriety and like that. People do know that as a category. So you wouldn’t mess with it, but you didn’t come out, right? Okay? No, no, no, but there’s a, there’s a blueberry wizard, you know, the one I don’t want to say as a donkey something,

Nestor Aparicio  13:42

okay, that’s fine.

Wendy Bronfein  13:44

But yeah, there’s there’s a there, and they’re just the flower has been really beautiful. The profile the cannabinoids and terpenes is amazing. So yeah, definitely check out the that curio, exclusive flower. If you are a flower user, I

Nestor Aparicio  13:57

know how much you like to laugh. You ever heard the cat Williams thing about names of strains. Now, this one here is called death. It’s called death. You never heard that, like they’re just naming these strains. And he’s like, No, don’t name it that, you know? I mean, give me a better make it something I want warm apple pie, you know, like Wendy Braun, finally, she doesn’t name all the strains trying to talk her into a nasty Nestor strain. But come on some better than that. We come up. Curia wellness is our sponsor for our 26th anniversary, for our oyster tour, in conjunction with our friends at Liberty pure solutions, we’ve been talking a lot of oysters. We’ve been talking a lot of cannabis. We’re talking a lot of baseball and football and offensive defense and certainly maritime magic. If, if you’re free on Friday night, come on down. The weather’s going to be fantastic. It’s affordable. It’s a bucket of cords, price of a nice dinner. It’s for a great cause, living classrooms.org, and the best part is, Wendy, if anybody comes up and says, I heard you, Wendy, talking about this, and I’m down here, I’ll dance with you, and I will get you the first lamb chop or whatever it is, because you can eat your face off. I will see you. I promise. I’m going to shave before Friday. I did this for the Orioles just to try to, like, have a little play off beer and see how far I could, how ugly I could get. We’ll we’ll find out, and I will see you on Friday night. I know you got a role. Appreciate you. Wendy Brown, fine, our chief cannabis officer. She’s Chief Brand Officer for all things curio wellness and foreign daughter will hold her longer next week, and we’ll have plenty to talk about from all the great food we’re gonna eat at maritime magic. I am Nestor. We are wnst. Am 1570 Towson, Baltimore, Luke and I covered sports like nobody. Find it all at Baltimore positive.com you.
