Cannabis School

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.”

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
Sweet berry, citrus, mint, gas, and funky aromas

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

RSO has one of the biggest reputations in cannabis—but what is Rick Simpson Oil, how do you use it, and what does it actually feel like?
In this episode of Cannabis School, Brandon and Jesse try a small amount of RSO from Hoodoo Cannabis. This one-gram syringe contains approximately 694 mg of THC, along with smaller amounts of CBN, CBG, and CBC. Needless to say, this is some seriously concentrated cannabis.
We get into the thick, sticky texture, the strong cannabis taste, and why measuring a “grain-of-rice-sized” amount is more difficult than it sounds. The effects begin showing up surprisingly quickly, giving us a calm, focused, and functional experience instead of the traditional euphoric high we expected.
For us, the experience seemed better suited for staying active and getting things done than sitting around waiting to feel high. We also discuss the importance of accurate dosing, why capsules may offer more consistency, and why RSO should be approached carefully—especially by anyone without a strong THC tolerance.
We also examine the history behind Rick Simpson Oil and the personal stories that helped build its reputation. RSO is often discussed in connection with cancer, pain, nausea, seizures, digestive conditions, and other serious health concerns. However, personal stories are not the same as clinical evidence, and cannabis should never replace professional medical care.
In this episode:
What RSO and Rick Simpson Oil actually mean
The Hoodoo Cannabis RSO syringe and cannabinoid profile
Why RSO is so dark, thick, sticky, and difficult to handle
How a very small amount tasted and felt
How quickly we began noticing the effects
Calm focus, body effects, and our pain experience

This episode is for education and entertainment only. RSO is highly potent and can cause significant impairment. It is not proven to cure cancer and should not replace medical treatment. The National Cancer Institute states that cannabis and cannabinoids have not been approved as cancer treatments, although certain cannabinoid medications are approved for specific chemotherapy-related symptoms.

This week’s Sesh starts with old-school video games and ends with a Mexico story that escalates way past “we should probably find our friend.” In between? Strict parents, forbidden cartoons, questionable movie nights, and a very important question: was that childhood favorite actually good, or were you just twelve?
With Midtown Haze in the Volcano, we revisit the chaos of Manhunt, the love for Splinter Cell, and the absolute insanity of Conker’s Bad Fur Day. Then we take the scenic route through VHS memories, The Heavenly Kid, and the horror movies that make you laugh versus the ones that actually get under your skin.
Naturally, that turns into Navy stories, Tijuana adventures, and a dad who could negotiate a deal through sheer eye contact.
It’s a happy, rambling, “how the hell did we get here?” kind of sesh. Pull up a chair. You’re in good company.
Inside this sesh:
Why some classic games still hit—and others should stay a memory.
Childhood gaming limits and cartoons we weren’t allowed to watch.
A Heavenly Kid recap that becomes its own side quest.
Midtown Haze check-in: happy, chill, and thoroughly off-topic.
Horror favorites, chainsaw hands, and one deeply questionable movie night.
Navy memories, Mexico misadventures, and the art of holding your price.
