intriguing answers started appearing in the early ninety's when researchers pinpointed receptors in the brain and the body that bind with the canal benoit's receptors can be described as locks on the surface of a cell and when the correct key binds with the correct receptor it opens the door and delivers messages sometimes the message is that the body is feeling pain other times the message may be that there is an invader and the immune system must attack scientists located t ok it's all they live again and i'm looking forward to watching this segment because after we get through i want to hear what these people are going to say because i think it's extremely interesting about greenlight expo i want to learn about that that's their facebook in the background and will people say this is all the life we have the honor today to having done during sent here today a choice wellness she's becoming the gandhi of organic medical cannabis here by the way to know people it's not just medical cannabis is something to smoke get them over that you know because it might be medically needed years ago dr phil callaghan university of florida had it in for him to research and lead part of their culture developed a silica bandaging material that helped excel the healing of human tissue because silica currently heals human tissue faster guess what cannabis fibers made of a lot involved here but i going to look at our panel your real quick it's really good to see all you guys give us all your names matthew and all the everybody and then we have gone to the left can you guys tell us a little bit about number of effects not normally attributed to cannabis and i've been talking about it for a few months now all over the media and now there's some other people that are going to talk about it force to get it from the state that it will do the same as what you get from medical cannabis dispens yeah my name is leonard haggerty and i'm a member of the directors guild of america i've been involved in film and television production for the last twenty five years with filing to becoming law  and maybe a resident state of washington tacoma i thought it a particularly good opportunity to capture this at the epicenter and as you know colorado and washington state are the first two states to legalize the recreational use and it was one hundred years ago that utah massachusetts became the first two states to illegalize it so i think we're at a tipping point and i'm interviewing as many people patients people for and against want to say something else during the filming of this on the day it became legal we were just trying to get more or less people in the streets cell braining doing whatever they were on that day and this is where we became aware matthew and the strain old toby and we thought it was such an extraordinary piece of the botany that we did develop a foundation called the old toby foundation and we think that there's something very extraordinary on the horizon with this particular strain and more to come this is actually a strain that i've never seen anything quite like it we it was a chance meeting for us to run into matthew at the seattle center and of course first we just kind of blew him off until he finally convinced this is try it and i have never had a fax like that that i've ever had to offer cannabis i became clear instead of stone i guess a simple way to put it and i looked around and i noticed that the camera crew and the producer were also feeling the same effects that i was feeling so someone had spiked my drink this was the real deal we're super excited about this as one of the reasons we're in the sand history is to try to heal people try to give them alternative forms of medicine i feel that in america you should be able to choose your own form of health care what we put in our bodies of it's not harming anyone else is our choice and the government or anyone should be allowed to tell us what to do so we're going to be working with this strain and trying to get the best possible mad medicine that we can out of it  let's say if it's going to be an organic cannabis type of thing we're going to happen like licensing to grow one thousand square feet how much space are going to be what is the liquor board i mean it's all tied into this state wide liquor board setting up co ops things like that get bad moving get it on your way so that we can set up this whole thing it throughout our whole state right yeah i mean it's all involved right yeah that's correct i mean one of the issues right now is nobody quite knows which direction it's going to take we've been discussing this with some city officials our attorneys and no one can seem to give us an answer we hope that it will keep going in the direction it's going only time will tell that we're going to try and be prepared for whatever happens that's our goal give us sort of some background from you michael what happened how did you get into all this thing with what happened how just in this well i started paying attention to the cannabis industry quite a few years ago i've always known about its healing properties and when construction kind of took a tank i thought it was time to throw into this and in the process i became extremely compassionate man i saw people that were hurting people that  really got a big benefit out of this mazing plant and it changed me i couldn't i couldn't ignore it and i became hungry to find more i just really really wanted to help people  quick give us some input on organics where how is it that nobody seems to be catching on but we are now but it is a problem and it's sort of like you know drinking a big pour out of the quicksand dad to get this movement into the organic field but the bottom line is if it's not organic it's poison if it's not organic it's not met a and i get very offended by people that are profiteers who are out there selling poison to to sick people people w compromised immune systems when there is absolutely no need at all for it it's simply greed and ignorance that that amount to this there are people who believe that if they use pesticides they will get a bigger yield that's what we need is quality medicine and old toby is the most amazing thing to have come along and i don't even know when in terms of its incredible curative properties and in the short term memory very versatile is just phenomenal and i make people sit down when i tell him that because i know they're going to going to believe me we have had in the in the last two and a half weeks that we've been we've had a very limited amount of all till be available to the public but the patients who have been coming in and utilizing have just been blown away by its effects and coming back the next day wanting more and more and more we're going to have a hard time keeping up with that in the short term but i'm sure in the long term  realize that the mistreated people don't know anything you have to teach it right that's correct and so it's an educating them make to get them to educate was to get them to let us write they should have to go anywhere else besides to help other growers you are so knowledgeable and so experience now with being able to actually develop strains for specific things that i i certainly hope you'll be working with a number of growers in the future and kind of being the supervisor mentor to the rest of us who are trying to catch up well right my dream is to work with the video kill the strain from research facility in israel and to try to do a little bit of work with a strain from california called pineapple perhaps that's got five point eight percent each b c which is a bone healer which anybody that breaks their bones needs and it helps with parkinson's and those two specific strains first off a really want to work with if i can get with those to the people that have those because there's no discernible i like the old toby there's no ides it old toby's different not only is there no does there was just wasted he was in the brig intoxicated he he was in bed the whole time and he didn't think he was going to be able to do three months of eating that much cannabis but he did it in a curious cancer but what i'd like to do is incorporate  a little bit of old toby to counteract some of those negative effects clear your mind will get you on your feet back motivated so you're not just you know if that's one of the benefits of it i think that if i can if intoxication we just can't you can't be intoxicated like that every day your life generation after generation it does something to humanity it just does but i think that now that this strain is brought forth into the disabled and has eighty percent short term memory loss which is on par with an all the time or patience so over four and a half years and sixty different readings to find help for himself and to give himself the relief of having almost no short term memory this came about so it's an extraordinary testament to the will and the botany expertise  a lot more humble about this than maybe he should be this is like a breakthrough and i'm just happy to have in the course of your in this documentary you know come upon such an extraordinary man  yeah i have to say that this changes a lot of things that a lot of the people that i talk to that have cancer america brother disabled these disabilities they won't use cannabis because they don't want to be stoned that's the thing that keeps them from reason that they still have to function in their day to day lives this is going to change it and it also approaches the aspect of these green duis we all know that driving medic it does not mean you're toxic agent but smoking and driving is not so we're really excited about it and i'd never have to say i have met a lot of growers a lot of breeders in my time in the industry and i have yet to meet anyone with a tenth of the compassion that this man has i was quite blown away by it not greed not at all he's truly truly wants to help the patients and he wants to heal the world and we're going to help him i want to bring up something real quick here while we have five ten more minutes that we're creating a groundwork an architecture hers is there like interest at the community level to develop industries we have the mayor of gold bar washington very interesting guy and he apparently is going bankrupt the city's going bankrupt and we've introduced the idea could you guys develop projects for cities like that that might be going bankrupt what can we do to help all these different towns rebuild our economy also become that real quick the production of commercial and industrial h if that is read in five o two as being ok to produce that opens up a myriad of different jobs and incomes and financial benefits to anyone doing that it's a crop that you can grow you can grow it in it's not like a tree it is is in a myriad of things and we just happen to have the ability to bring that to the marketplace by growing it ourselves so washington grown hip could be a wonderful of income especially for those towns that are struggling and might not have other things that they can do with their properties or their industries have gone down the tubes yeah this is a this is a completely different industry this is jobs that actually help humanity there nontoxic there is no chemicals going into the environment it's so i can't understand why we haven't jumped on this before it will create so many jobs look at henry ford cars thirty thousand cars made out of hand five or powered by a few old motors and those just disappear but the governments know about a program on time and i don't understand how we can be have so many unemployed when we have this industry just staring us in the face i was fortunate enough to help i have passed two years ago we helped in the home posy of district and i met the us twenty six different companies at that time that made hemp products and unfortunately the only way they could get their products is to import him from china canada i think in colombia which is just ridiculous and it should be growing right here it's cheap it's what basically we wouldn't have an island made of plastic the size of texas floating out there in the ocean without a doubt we can make plastics out to have for a tenth of the cost but there's a huge lobby with that the oil companies course have huge lobbies fighting us which is part of the reason why cannabis remains illegal one hundred years later you know it's illegal because of racism and bishan and greed and nothing has changed in the last hundred years except for the names of a few of the players but we have huge lobbies that are fighting everything we're doing watching very closely trying to find out how they can make a lot of money on the work that we're doing so nothing really has changed in the last hundred years but hopefully we can flip that around and and perhaps a little bit of racial thought will supersede greed that would be nice and you know speaking along those lines back in the eight hundred series the gold rush and because people discover told there's a whole economy around that they're calling what might be coming forward is the green rush in which you green jobs and you read economy will emerge it would be nice to see it more like a cottage industry than just the people with a lot of money to get in positions to monopolize this to where a lot more people can share in the proceeds in the profits of a good industry and not just the wealthy players that already have the end roads to make that happen so i hope that the state is responsible and how they let people participate and let a lot of people participate in this economy really good if there is an opportunity for music where we're going to go with that we well i'm a little partial my brother and i were the president viceroy of blue horizon records and we represent the ventures the wailers our last album two car garage features eighteen songs and five of them were done by the late can't morale who was the lead singer of the wailers brought us louie louie and don wilson sings as well which is kind of a first so the ventures this year will be their fiftieth consecutive year in japan don wilson who will be seen later today as a matter of fact has never missed a performance and if you go to two car garage music dot  com you'll not only see the record two car garage but you'll also see alec baldwin who's going to be the narrator of our documentary film introduce the the what you'll see which is a seven minute tape of some of the the things that will be doing the documentary that ted and i were just in japan filming the ventures tix to see what that excitement was about ted say a word or two we have well there's a whole other aspect of music and cannabis in that what music is best for the planet and i see that as a huge untapped market and i think that should be developed yes i was going to mention really quick you're an artist ted you're an artist i am i'm  the art there if you go to the green light expo on fifty fourth and south come away there's quite a few of ted's originals hung up as we speak and music and hip growing it's something that we're looking into to have  jointly through the foundation come out with something really nice poison this herb the other one was the antidote right one of them screwed up your memory one of them gave you a headache experience your memory gave you a headache it intoxicated you it made you sleep it or unconscious and the other one cleared up your memory made your vision better healed you and there are mixed right now all over the earth and that's what the cannabis is but i actually broke off the jeans over most of the genetic information from the original healing plant and it even counter acts the negative effects of the other cannabis so hopefully we're going to be able to classify it as i don't know if the chemical is i call it negative t h c it produces negative t c and there is so far from the tests that have been done there's three unknown chemicals at the plant produces that the guy at the lab never saw anything like it just was off the charts his machine was a calibrated board so we're going to do more testing and find out what's in it but i feel that maybe we can reclassify it and it will be a cure for can and addiction i don't know i so you think in stomp out you know all negative effects that anybody has ever had from cannabis anyone that's ever tried it and said oh my gosh i was screwed up i'll never do that again that wasn't this plan this was that was that was something else and i think people if they could just try it we're going to try to give it our statement the old toby foundation our mission is to provide as much of this medication as we can to as many special needs patients as we can and we want to save the world yet and so we are going to save the world and we want people to join us and you know all all good people we need to gather together right now and lift each other up and that's how we're going to help this country and this economy this one person at a time gathering together and lifting each other out were the last of the two minutes here we're going to cover a cup bunch of things maybe get you guys back on we'll talk some more and i know you're doing a documentary we got two minutes left  guys what the world know about before we get on to the next segment when you're back on i want the world to know that there is a safe and legal access point for medical cannabis and to call this a green light expo but we're not at the spencer and you can get good quality  to help support your right we're going to create jobs and heal those two things should save our economy our country and eventually our world we'd like to see this product in japan to help fight the effects of the nuclear meltdown we think it would be amazing and they really need it so japan if you want feel that we're going to heal the world with this plan and that's it i mean help us please and if i could say something off fast to anyone in the community that w that's a patient that would like to help set standards we host for patients at fifty four zero a degree might expo we do that to come a cannabis standards and ethics and that's held every wednesday night at seven p m anyone is welcome as long as you're patient we need feedback we need our community we need to unite and come up with a plan that's going to help save people and change the world in and you know magazine there's a strain review in there and it's really interesting the chances are slim so yeah continuing to be in magazines awesome after you appreciate everyone matthew appreciate it dawn thank you very much what's the young lady what's your name  elise thank you as you say one quick thing one call from toby and i was talking to one of the heads of high times about being in our documentary so that's how far this gentleman has gotten in that community i'm told we know it's matthew cancer kills more than forty one thousand american women every year researchers in the san francisco lab are working show your marks yet set my gosh it's all the life and it is good to be alive at least in a day where we can enjoy a little bit more of live things like things like medical organic medical cannabis it's a live thing in we're all day life i am will people sing and we are broadcasting from seattle washington tonight we're going to have the honor of having dawn derrington she's one of the most foremost advocates probably very soon and hopefully don's going to be helping advise our king county our new sure our mayor what she's going to help advise them hopefully that will create a means by which the king county police can be kind of a leader for the state pension in the nation as we show in excess of structure that's put into place that's not into place at this time doesn't exist at this time nobody realizes that you have to create a architecture a direction of creating organic medical standards standards for for cannabis richard i mean is this something new i mean there's are we kind of coming at a point where maybe you could actually help us put together the organic standards for king county for washington you're right in standards creating botanical standards things like that pretty organic standards dawn what would you mentioned like with when you're creating a standard for  sure the articles right out of los angeles times are claiming that there's no possible we've been here working that medicine well i'm sure drug dealers would agree with that point entirely because they believe that that they get a higher yield a heavier yield when they use poisonous pesticides so of course they're in a say there can't be anything that's organic i know that to not be true i've been going organically for many years i've grown organic hydra finally organically for many years and when i hear people say oh you can't grow hydroponically organically i look at and i go really i didn't get that memo so i just did it sometimes when people tell you something oh no this can't happen i would like to encourage to a letter what phase of light that is when somebody says to you this can't happen when you really need to sit down and rethink it because the most likely what they're saying is in point of fact exactly the opposite of that you certainly can grow organically if it's medicine it must be organic there just is well well i have to say that organic still means to me what it meant to me fifty years ago i grew up with the only bathroom reading material in my house was prevention magazine and as you'll recall that was when it was an excellent magazine before the a m a bought it ruined it that's what organic is you don't use chemical pesticides anything that drinks of poison so yes i am i am pretty the political definition of organic i am truly that's how we  veggies in the backyard and that's how i grow my cannabis that's how i grow my medicine that gets the only way it can be how dare they even call it medicine when it's full of poison makes me kind of crazy i think they should all be out of business instantly it's they're doing it for ministers service to people that are sick over half of all cannabis recommended patients are having compromised immune system the last thing in the world we need in our body are pesticides or miracle gro and i have to admit some close to fifteen years ago my first crop i grew and miracle grow i've learned a lot and i want to share that with the world because we just can't tolerate having that bad nasty stuff in our bodies that's what i mean you didn't say like something i mean i have my theory about when the endo's perming plants arrived he knows how many one or two million years ago on the planet in the microclimates where the you know the climate was that produced poisons or alkaloids or that split into male and female groups they were all a sexual reproducing plants were hundreds of millions of years and very late in the fossil record these and the sperm plants arrived and shortly after that humans arrived and i believe that you know you are where you eat and we've got one in three axons in our body and in a cannabinoid receptors so obviously you know the earliest humans always have to have consumed cannabis large amounts of cannabis for a million years maybe two of actual human beings existence we've consumed it it's and if you don't consume it from it's taking your edge your evolutional edge away and we're not going to survive it's that important camus is going to say needs humans all the seeds are going to feed the birds all the pollen is going to feed the the best minds on the planet say it's too late we're already extinct i'd say it's not too late that we turn to cannabis and we can live human to be alive ten thousand years ago think about our great great great grandchildren i'm just sit there up like probably what happened but that was their intent and we can learn from that and hindsight is twenty twenty but it's not too late let's turn to cannabis and story specific cannabis there is one is going to feed the planet
