Happy 420, everyone! Instead of our usual interview format, we\u2019re speaking to three budtenders in the world of cannabis. We ask each of them a handful of questions before jumping into Stump the Budtender\u2013a game that\u2019s exactly what it sounds like. So, who are our contestants? First up is Jessica Waldeck from Rebelle Dispensary. Focused on the intersection of wellness and cannabis, she began her career in this industry as a marketing coordinator at an infused yoga studio. Since then, she\u2019s run two marathons, a sprint triathlon, and a 100-mile bike course, all aided and enhanced with cannabis. Second, you\u2019ll meet Nate Frim of Theory Wellness. He\u2019s a pioneer in medical cannabis, working to understand how the human mind works and how he can help people use cannabis to overcome their challenges. Finally, we\u2019re joined by AK, who knows the legacy and legal markets equally well. Originally from Montclair, AK launched a delivery service in New Jersey called VibesAK, a not-for-profit dedicated to providing food and security for children in the state. In this episode, you\u2019ll learn the day-to-day of three very different people ostensibly doing the same job in our industry and how they got there. You\u2019ll also hear us dive deep into the science behind a number of strains, and you\u2019ll discover some of the latest innovations in cannabis products. And last but certainly not least, get ready to play Stump the Budtender in the second part of our very special 420 \u201cExtravaganja\u201d episode. Enjoy! KEY TAKEAWAYS  What actually happens in dispensaries\u2013both recreational and medical\u2013each and every business day. Why Nate doesn\u2019t say \u201cweed\u201d when he talks about cannabis. The critical difference between mixologists in the alcohol industry and budtenders. How cannabis education works for consumers, given that it\u2019s impossible to taste and spit like wine.
