Cannabis School

Ever sit down to relax and immediately think about all the shit you should be doing?
Yeah. Us too.
This Sesh starts with coffee, homemade cannabis balm, and some questionable smoke-shop products before we wander into a much bigger conversation: why is it so damn hard to just be here and enjoy our lives?
With Tiger King joining God’s Breath in the Volcano, we catch up on past psychedelic experiences, music that takes you somewhere else, and knowing when an experience isn’t for you. Then we get into the thoughts Solve for Happy has been stirring up—being present, feeling guilty for resting, and appreciating the stuff we walk past every day.
Including bread. We get really grateful for bread. 😂
From putting down the screens to building trust and actually listening when someone talks, this one’s about getting curious about ourselves and the people around us. With plenty of questionable jokes along the way.

God’s Breath sounds peaceful. Then somebody’s holding onto the bookcase waiting for the high to settle in.
This week, we’re checking out God’s Breath from Dragonfly, with our batch clocking in at 28.71% THC. We compare notes on smoking versus dry herb vaping, getting comfortable versus getting sleepy, and why our first impressions didn’t quite match.
Then we turn the vaporizer from 365°F to 395°F—and the conversation changes.
We share how the effects build throughout the session, the body relaxation we each notice, and why the same flower can hit two people very differently. Naturally, we also wander into falling asleep during family movie night, gaming with friends, keeping your cool during tough conversations, and realizing you just spent 40 fucking minutes scrolling through absolutely nothing.
In this episode:
Smoking versus vaping: our very different God’s Breath experiences

The batch details and why THC percentage only tells part of our story

Turning up the temperature and checking in on the effects

Changing tolerances and knowing when you’re good

Cannabis is often associated with nausea relief, but nausea doesn’t always have the same cause—and cannabis doesn’t always produce the same result.
In this Cannabis 101 episode, Brandon and Jesse explore nausea through Jesse’s personal experience with a GLP-1 medication for diabetes. Slower digestion, reduced appetite, difficulty eating, and random waves of nausea led us to ask a bigger question: How do you know whether cannabis will help your nausea or make the situation worse?
We discuss nausea connected to medication side effects, an empty stomach, excessive caffeine, migraines, illness, digestive conditions, chemotherapy, anxiety, and cannabis itself. We also explore why the product, dose, cannabinoid profile, terpene profile, consumption method, and your individual body may all change the experience.
Cannabis may help some people manage certain forms of nausea, but more THC is not automatically better. Taking too much can create dizziness, anxiety, nausea, or vomiting. Frequent heavy cannabis use can also be associated with cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome, commonly called CHS, which causes recurring episodes of severe nausea and vomiting.
We also discuss flower, vape cartridges, concentrates, tinctures, and edibles. When someone already feels sick, a slow-onset edible may be difficult to dose, while inhaled products act faster but carry their own risks. Neither option is universally “best.”
In this episode:
Jesse’s experience with GLP-1 medication and nausea
Appetite changes and delayed digestion
Why nausea can have many different causes
Cannabis, the endocannabinoid system, and nausea signaling

42:19 Final thoughts
Cannabinoid medications such as dronabinol and nabilone are FDA-approved for chemotherapy-related nausea and vomiting that have not responded to standard treatments. That does not mean cannabis flower treats every form of nausea, and evidence for inhaled cannabis remains limited. National Cancer Institute
If nausea is severe, persistent, accompanied by repeated vomiting, or begins after frequent cannabis use, speak with a healthcare professional. Never stop or change a prescribed medication—including a GLP-1 medication—without speaking to your prescriber.

Slurricane sounds like it should knock you sideways—but this indica-dominant hybrid gave us a much more functional experience than expected.
In this Cannabis School strain review, Brandon and Jesse try Slurricane flower grown by Dragonfly Wellness. A cross between Do-Si-Dos and Purple Punch, this batch tested at approximately 26.5% THC, with limonene and beta-caryophyllene leading the terpene profile.
Right out of the jar, Slurricane delivers a sharp, sweet aroma with dark berry, citrus, gas, and an almost cheese-like funk. Once vaporized, it becomes smoother and more layered, bringing out sweet, slightly minty flavors with a light gassy finish.
The effects came on gradually. Instead of immediately locking us to the couch, Slurricane felt calm, present, and surprisingly easy to layer throughout the day. After several bowls, however, the head effects became heavier and a little wobbly—so dosage definitely matters.
For us, this felt like a great strain for a quiet evening, a relaxed staycation, looking at art, watching fish at an aquarium, taking a peaceful fall walk, or hanging out somewhere that isn’t packed with people. Brandon also found it potentially useful for daytime pain without making him feel immediately sleepy.
Of course, this is a Cannabis School episode, so the conversation eventually wanders into Utah’s changing landscape, art museums, enormous hidden mansions, Halloween traditions, childhood jobs, truck-driving stories, and the questionable ways parents used to teach kids a lesson.

Dragonfly Wellness flower from Utah

Slurricane gave us a sweet, smooth, relaxing experience that remained functional at lower amounts but became noticeably heavier as we kept going. This may be one to vaporize during the day and save the bigger sessions for the evening.

We’re kicking off this Sesh with the AirVape Legacy CORE, an entry-level dry-herb vaporizer AirVape sent us to try. We break down the airflow, temperature settings, replaceable battery, dosing capsules, cleaning design, session timer, warranty, and how it compares with the more advanced Legacy models.
For the price, the CORE delivers smooth airflow and respectable vapor—but the shorter session time and lack of a detailed display may matter depending on how you like to vape. We give you the good, the frustrating, and our honest verdict after running flower through it.
Then the Sesh takes over.
We ask whether modern video games still create those unforgettable “core memory” moments. From The Witcher 3 and Ghost Recon to remasters, endless releases, online gaming, practical movie effects, and nostalgia, we wonder whether entertainment has actually improved—or whether prettier graphics are covering up weaker stories.
From there, the conversation moves into work, money, homeownership, commercial real estate, gambling, religion, judgment, and the expectations we place on other people. Brandon also shares a difficult story from his time working in mental health involving someone who escaped a high-control religious community. That leads to a deeper discussion about faith, rituals, manipulation, personal responsibility, and why questioning your surroundings can be so important.
It’s funny, serious, uncomfortable, nostalgic, and completely off the rails—which means it’s definitely a Cannabis School Sesh.

Airflow, temperature settings, cleaning, and dosing capsules
Replaceable batteries and the short session timer
