Full Spectrum Cannabis

In this episode, things get delightfully cosmic as the hosts of Full Spectrum Cannabis chat with Lynn Wachtler — a nurse, storyteller, and self-proclaimed “connector of all things.” It’s part wellness deep dive, part heart-to-heart, and part laughter therapy session. From rocks in your pocket to mindfulness in chaos, this one’s got that perfect mix of humor and humanity. Lynn opens up about her jo...

Moon Rocks, Key Lime Dreams & Cannabis Creativity"In this episode, the crew sits down with Kevin Trinh from MLLW (that’s M-L-L-W, no vowels until further notice) to taste-test some seriously innovative THC goodies and swap stories about flavor, passion, and building a brand that actually cares about taste. The vibe is relaxed, funny, and just a little bit snacky—you’ll probably leave craving c...

In this episode, the crew kicks back with engineer-turned-brewer Jake Hanneman, founder of Auroch Canning.

It’s equal parts hilarious and eye-opening—think shop talk meets ston...

In this episode, Lance and Calandra sit down with Brock Dabrowski and Jared Schroeder of Meta Commercial Cannabis—a brokerage that helps cannabis entrepreneurs navigate Minnesota’s tricky real estate market.

In this episode, Sam steps in as guest co-host with Lance Asher and chats with Minneapolis-based cannabis attorney Jared Reams.
