Descripción

This week, JP sits down with Sal from Zooted Inc., one of the driving forces behind the new generation of cannabis brands putting Staten Island on the map. Alongside a tight-knit group of cultivators, breeders, and entrepreneurs, Sal and the Staten Island crew have been making serious noise throughout New York’s cannabis community. Known for their unique flavors, dedication to pheno hunting, and commitment to quality, they’re helping shape the future of East Coast cannabis culture. We linked up at the legendary Torches Dispensary, a former cigar lounge turned cannabis speakeasy located in the heart of Times Square. Once frequented by some of New York City’s biggest names, the setting couldn’t have been more perfect for a classic New York conversation. šŸ’Ø In this episode, we get into: The rise of Zooted Inc. Staten Island’s growing influence on the NY cannabis scene Pheno hunting and building unique flavors Sal’s journey between New York and Florida The challenges and opportunities in today’s cannabis market Building a brand with authenticity and staying true to your roots 🧠 Sal is one of the real ones. Hard-working, humble, and focused on the long game. If the future of New York cannabis is being built by people like him, Staten Island has a lot to be proud of. āø» Y’all know what time it is… Roll em fat, torch your rigs, pack your bongs, bag up some work, water your plants, do what you gotta do because we’re about to take this journey with Sal from Zooted Inc.! āœŒšŸ¼ā¤ļøšŸ• JP āø» šŸ”„ Big up my sponsors! @grovebags @buckmountaincannabis @cadre.verde @bambinas.sac @millspaysthebillsamsterdam @flowermillusa @dr.dabber Get a DISCOUNT at http://www.grovebags.com PROMO CODE: GOODPIZZZA Grab a Flower Mill with the Good PizzZa discount: https://www.flowermillusa.com/discount/GOODPIZZZA?ref=GOODPIZZZA Promo Code: GOODPIZZZA āø» šŸ’Ø Dr Dabber Discount http://www.drdabber.com PROMO CODE: GOODPIZZZA15 āø» šŸ• GRAB SOME SWAG http://www.goodpizzza.com āø» This page in conversation will be dedicated to the GoodPizzzaPodcast autumn notes, concepts, theories, strategies, etc. so tune in. #GoodPizzZaPodcast #ZootedInc #SalZooted #StatenIsland #NewYorkCannabis #CannabisPodcast #PhenoHunting #CannabisCulture #NYCannabis #EastCoastCannabis #TorchesDispensary #TimesSquare #WeedCulture #CannabisCommunity #NJNYC Support the show [https://www.patreon.com/goodpizzza] Shop Merch: goodpizzza.com [https://goodpizzza.com] Instagram: @ [https://instagram.com/good.p1zzza]_goodpizzza_ Instagram: @goodpizzzapodcast [https://instagram.com/goodpizzzapodcast] Show some love: patreon.com/goodpizzza [https://patreon.com/goodpizzza]

Episode 164: He Was There When Nas Recorded Illmatic… And Ran NYC’s Weed Game | Old Man Dave

This week, JP sits down with Old Man Dave, one of the true OGs of New York City cannabis culture. Now in his 80s, Dave has lived a life most people only hear about in stories. From moving weight during the golden era of NYC cannabis to navigating the ups and downs that came with it, Dave has seen it all. Through multiple chapters of life, relationships, business ventures, and run-ins with the law, Dave remained connected to the culture that helped shape New York. šŸŽµ With deep ties to the music industry, Dave was a regular around the legendary D&D Studios, rubbing shoulders with icons like DJ Premier and witnessing history firsthand. He even found himself in the studio while Nas was recording Illmatic, one of the most influential hip-hop albums of all time. šŸ’Ø In this episode we get into: Growing up in New York City The early cannabis scene before legalization Moving serious weight during the underground era Celebrity clientele and music industry connections D&D Studios and witnessing the creation of Illmatic Lessons learned from a lifetime of wins and losses Why preserving these stories matters 🧠 This episode is bigger than cannabis. It’s about documenting history before it’s gone. The stories, experiences, and lessons from the generation that helped build the culture deserve to be heard. This one’s for the OGs. āø» Y’all know what time it is… Roll ’em fat, torch your rigs, pack your bongs, bag up some work, water your plants — do what you gotta do… because we’re about to take this journey with Old Man Dave! āœŒšŸ¼ā¤ļøšŸ• JP āø» šŸ”„ Big up my sponsors! @grovebags @buckmountaincannabis @cadre.verde @bambinas.sac @millspaysthebillsamsterdam @flowermillusa @dr.dabber šŸ’ø Get a DISCOUNT at: www.grovebags.com PROMO CODE: GOODPIZZZA 🌿 Grab a Flower Mill with the Good PizzZa discount: https://www.flowermillusa.com/discount/GOODPIZZZA?ref=GOODPIZZZA Promo Code: GOODPIZZZA āø» šŸ’Ø Dr Dabber Discount www.drdabber.com PROMO CODE: GOODPIZZZA15 šŸ• GRAB SOME SWAG www.goodpizzza.com #GoodPizzZaPodcast #OldManDave #Nas #Illmatic #DNDStudios #DJPremier #NYCHipHop #CannabisCulture #LegacyCannabis #WeedPodcast #HipHopHistory #NewYorkStories #OGStories #CannabisCommunity #NJNYC Support the show [https://www.patreon.com/goodpizzza] Shop Merch: goodpizzza.com [https://goodpizzza.com] Instagram: @ [https://instagram.com/good.p1zzza]_goodpizzza_ Instagram: @goodpizzzapodcast [https://instagram.com/goodpizzzapodcast] Show some love: patreon.com/goodpizzza [https://patreon.com/goodpizzza]

This week, JP sits down with Glen from Green Dragon, a true pioneer whose journey runs deep through both the music industry and cannabis culture.

Episode 182: They Accidentally Ended Up in Humboldt… and Changed Cannabis Forever- Humboldt Seed Co

Episode 182 of the Good PizzZa Podcast, we sit down with Nat and Benjamin from Humboldt Seed Company — one of the most respected cannabis seed companies in the world. But before Humboldt Seed Co. became a global name in cannabis genetics… both of these guys were just figuring life out. Benjamin actually wound up in California almost by accident after spending nearly 10 years riding trains across America — exploring life, traveling the country, and living outside the norm. Nat’s journey west looked completely different. He was heading toward California with his girlfriend at the time… until she dumped him on the way. Suddenly, he found himself at a crossroads — either go back home to the East Coast or keep pushing west. Thankfully… he kept going. Eventually, these two crossed paths living in a commune in Humboldt County, California — and the rest is history. Founded by Nathaniel Pennington in 2001, Humboldt Seed Company became known for building strong, reliable cannabis genetics while helping push the science and art of breeding forward. Benjamin has also played a major role in helping expand Humboldt Seed Co. internationally — building relationships and helping bring their genetics across the world through partnerships, exports, research, and global cannabis networking. His work has helped push Humboldt Seed Co. far beyond California into places like Europe, South America, Jamaica, and other emerging markets. They’re also doing some really cool stuff outside of Cannabis. They’re creating seeds and collecting genetics from all over the world of actual vegetables and herbs that you can cook with outside of just the cannabis seeds that they’re known for.Ā  In this episode we get into: šŸ”„ The wild journeys that brought them to Humboldt šŸ”„ Riding trains across America for a decade šŸ”„ Living in communes in Northern California šŸ”„ Building Humboldt Seed Co. from the ground up šŸ”„ Massive pheno hunts and selecting keepers šŸ”„ Breeding stable genetics for growers worldwide šŸ”„ International cannabis expansion and global seed markets This episode is about adventure, genetics, risk-taking, and how two people from completely different paths wound up helping shape modern cannabis breeding. Real Humboldt story. Real genetics. No Cuts. Real culture. āø» šŸ“ Follow & Support Y’all know what time it is… Roll em fat, torch your rigs, pack your bongs, bag up some work, water your plants, do what you gotta do because we’re about to take this journey with Humboldt Seed Co.! āœŒšŸ¼ā¤ļøšŸ• JP āø» šŸ”„ Big up my sponsors! @grovebags @buckmountaincannabis @cadre.verde @bambinas.sac @millspaysthebillsamsterdam @flowermillusa @dr.dabber Get a DISCOUNT at www.grovebags.com PROMO CODE: GOODPIZZZA Grab a Flower Mill with the Good PizzZa discount: https://www.flowermillusa.com/discount/GOODPIZZZA?ref=GOODPIZZZA Promo Code: GOODPIZZZA āø» šŸ’Ø Dr Dabber Discount www.drdabber.com PROMO CODE: GOODPIZZZA15 āø» šŸ• GRAB SOME SWAG www.goodpizzza.com āø» #HumboldtSeedCompany #CannabisGenetics #PhenoHunting #HumboldtCounty #BlueberryMuffin #JellyDonutz #CannabisCulture #GoodPizzZaPodcast Support the show [https://www.patreon.com/goodpizzza] Shop Merch: goodpizzza.com [https://goodpizzza.com] Instagram: @ [https://instagram.com/good.p1zzza]_goodpizzza_ Instagram: @goodpizzzapodcast [https://instagram.com/goodpizzzapodcast] Show some love: patreon.com/goodpizzza [https://patreon.com/goodpizzza]
