Loose Jenga Blocks | CCR EP 5

Happy Monday, y'all! Welcome back to episode 5 of The Chill Country Report.

Not Legal Advice | CCR EP 4

Welcome back to episode 4 of The Chill Country Report. Justin reveals his second favorite actor of all-time. Chris did a deep dive on the two lawsuits filed on behalf of the Texas Hemp industry. NOT LEGAL ADVICE, but he believes the new hemp laws created by DSHS are going to get overturned. He also wrote a breakdown on our blog, read it here [https://chillcountryreport.com/breaking-down-the-two-lawsuits-fighting-for-texas-hemp-20260409]. I posted some social media content over the weekend that didn't perform well and it's triggering unresolved childhood trauma. I'm looking forward to working through it during an upcoming Ayahuasca retreat at the end of May. Our 420 promo on chillcountry.com [chillcountry.com] is live. Buy any bag or case and get a second bag or case FREE with code "420" – ends 4/21 at midnight cst. Have a chill day, Madison

420 Is Gratefully Dead | CCR EP 3

Welcome back to episode 3 of The Chill Country Report. Justin was dragged to The Last Dinner Party [https://open.spotify.com/artist/5SHgclK1ZpTdfdAmXW7J6s?si=pKnMWT4tQAapvF4p08UxfQ] and it ended up being one of the best live shows he's ever seen. He also did some research on the origins of the stoner holiday 420 and gave us a recap (read his blog post [https://chillcountryreport.com/why-420-is-gratefully-dead-20260401] about it). Chris got a bracelet and did more yard work while listening to Big Booty Mix [https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6zl6MpnT8rddgfq63qdqUj?si=988dab9f21bb4aa1]. I went to the Goodwill bins [https://www.goodwillgoodskills.org/home/shop/goodwill-outlet-stores] and listened to the new Kanye album [https://open.spotify.com/album/5poA9SAx0Xiz1cf17fWBLS?si=hcwMfE7BRlSqj6ZoB5UtKg] (sadly, it's awful). We are running a 420 sale on chillcountry.com [https://chillcountry.com], but we DO NOT support 420 and think it's super lame. But use code 420 at checkout. Sale ends 4/21/26. Have a chill day, Madison

Too Many Darts | CCR EP 2

Happy Monday y'all! We're back for episode 2 of The Chill Country Report. Justin's AC at his house is broken, but instead of getting mad about it he's practicing gratitude. Chris got shot up with too many anxiety darts last week, so on Friday he decided to close his laptop and do yard work all day instead. I battled my inner critic while editing the first episode of this podcast. He's super judgmental and thinks this show sucks. I honestly think it's pretty fun, so we'll have to agree to disagree. We're recording new episodes every Monday morning. If you enjoy the show, throw us a like and subscribe to our YouTube channel [https://www.youtube.com/@chillcountryreport]. If you prefer listening to your podcasts on Spotify [https://open.spotify.com/show/52HDqM3CAW2tNqntvDZzGJ?si=96467fe921de4411] or Apple Podcasts [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/chill-country-report/id1798358801], you can find us there too.
