In this episode Herb briefly covers news items from across the country, and locally in New York, where a major report in The City, by Rosalind Adams, detailed that OCM officials repeatedly raised alarms to Governor Hochul’s team over private equity loan deal. Also, shuttered unlicensed shop owners joined to bring a class action lawsuit against New York City claiming the closures are unconstitutional.

In the first segment, Herb speaks with Vladimir Bautista, CEO and Co-Founder of Happy Munkey, LLC., an internationally known NYC lifestyle company that is synonymous with cannabis culture. Vladimir is a speaker that is highly in demand across the globe and on this episode we’ll understand why.

Finally, in our Licensee Highlight segment, Herb speaks to Sandra Jaquez and Indhira Mojica, two license applicants who are also on the board of the Latino Cannabis Association. Sandra and Indhira are entrepreneurs who will share some commonsense wisdom with the State.
