Root Knowledge: A Budtender’s Guide to Cannabis

from The Talking Hedge · host Josh Kincaid

The Chronic Gals podcast is made of three canna-bosses from SW Washington state who have enjoyed smoking cannabis together for most of their adult lives. Ashleen Aguilar and Rileigh Aguilar are sisters, and Melissa Janson is a longtime friend. They all became smoking buddies in the last few years before WA legalized adult-use cannabis. Chronic Gals Podcast is a show to get stoned and have beautiful conversations about the nature of the universe and how to navigate through it. In addition to the podcast, the Chronic Gals launched "Take Root Dispensary Training." Take Root seeks to fill the training gap in the cannabis industry by providing dispensaries with cannabis education materials they can use to manage budtender training in-house. With their flagship program, Root Knowledge: A Budtender’s Guide to Cannabis, Take Root offers adult-use marijuana store owners a 10-shift onboarding program that can turn any casual cannabis user into a connoisseur. Summary:00:00 - Intro00:55 - inspiration to start a podcast04:08 - how to buy bud07:50 - terpenes vs MSOs11:06 - budtenders according to ChatGPT13:30 - ways to inform budtenders via ChatGPT16:39 - budtender recommendations18:14 - best ways to educate people on cannabis?23:26 - turnover VS education25:37 - launching Root Knowledge27:23 - outtro Guests:Rileigh Aguilar Co-Founder of Take Root Dispensary Training,& Co-Hosts of The Chronic Gals podcasthttps://www.linkedin.com/in/rileigh-aguilar-452937263/Ashleen Aguilar, Co-Founder of Take Root Dispensary Training,& Co-Hosts of The Chronic Gals podcasthttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ashleenaguilar/ Host:Josh Kincaid, Capital Markets Analyst & host of your cannabis business podcast.https://www.linkedin.com/in/joshkincaid/ Episode 1111 The #TalkingHedge...Your Cannabis Business Podcast.​Covering cannabis business news, interviews, investments, events, and more.https://www.theTalkingHedgepodcast.com Music Info:Song: Beat | Keep On | 2020Artist: Milochromatic Beats&Song: Dark Trap Beats Hard Rap Instrumental | Gang | 2018Artist: LuxrayBeats Keywords:Cannabis News, Cannabis Business, Cannabis Pitch Deck, Investment Deck, Cannabis Data, Cannabis Banking, Cannabis Investment, Cannabis Stocks,  Cannabis Analytics, Sales Data This is only entertainment.
