Today’s podcast overview/transcript:
Good afternoon and welcome to another episode of Investorideas.com "Potcast" featuring cannabis news, stocks to watch as well as insights from thought leaders and experts.
Today’s podcast is sponsored by Phyto Extractions Inc. (CSE:XTRX), an agricultural-scale cannabis extraction, distillation and product manufacturer located in Langley, BC at its co-located Health Canada Licensed Standard Processing (extraction, no cultivation), Sales (extracts, topicals, and edibles) through Adastra Labs Inc. and Analytical Testing Laboratory through Chemia Analytics Inc. Adastra Labs also has a pending Health Canada R&D license amendment.
In today’s podcast Investorideas interviews Danny Keith, President, Co-Founder and CEO of Eighth Icon which manages the Cheech and Chong cannabis brands, where we discussed opening Cheech and Chong Dispensoria's during COVID-19, implementing proprietary delivery technology with Cheech and Chong's Takeout, all while using the cannabis icon's Cheech and Chong's legacy of over 50 years together.
Danny Keith is a lifelong cannabis user, Chong family friend/business partner and founder of Cannabis Club TV which he recently sold in 2019. He brings decades of entrepreneurship to the company and can readily identify market trends and apply them with incredible accuracy. His career spans Action Sports, NBA, Mobile App Development, Startups, Non-Profit, Internet Ecommerce, Retail Hardtop and Social Media based businesses.
Discussing the launch of Cheech and Chong’s Takeout and their upcoming Dispensaria’s, Keith commented, “We came together about a year ago and decided to put together this company, with the intent of standing up the Cheech and Chong brands in a way that they deserved and not just a money play, but really to establish a legacy for them within the cannabis space. Whether they realize it or not, they were the pioneers of the weed “Icon” status. We saw the opportunity to bring everything into one house that is effectively able to market, distribute and sell product seed to sale, while also offering a delivery component which is what Cheech and Chong’s takeout is, and eventually the Cheech and Chong’s Dispensaria which we are the one one yard line for one of our locations, which is very exciting.”
Discussing launching during COVID-19 specifically, Keith commented, “There was no need for us to go stand up a dispensary during COVID because we didn’t have a customer base.Those dispensaries that had customer bases were able to pivot to curbside pickup, delivery, etc. For us we realized that we were going to focus on our delivery technology and on our actual flower touching products.”
Keith continued, “Respective to the delivery component, we’re not trying to become a delivery company. What we’re trying to do is to help drive delivery business to our delivery partners and to our retail partners doing delivery and in store pick up. At the end of the day we just want to be able to send traffic to our partners in our own ecosphere. The benefit of working with the Cheech and Chong brand is we have a marketing tool worth millions of dollars, We have an unfair advantage there. With our delivery component, what we're really looking to do is, utilizing technology that we’re developing, be able to understand the metrics of whats going on within our delivery business. How long are our deliveries taking? How much inventory is being held? What category is selling best? The emergence of data is what will change the cannabis space as we continue to move forward, so we are future proofing ourselves and leaning into that.”
Keith went on discuss his personal history with cannabis and Cheech and Chong, what’s next for Eight Icon, as well as his thoughts on the industry as a whole moving forward.

#Crypto and #Cannabis Combine:
Global Cannabis Applications Corp. (CSE: $APP.C) (FSE: 2FA) (OTCQB: $FUAPF) CEO
Breaks Down Company's Uniswap Token and Efixii Deal with Herb Industries Ltd. @CitizenGreenWld
Point Roberts, WA, Delta BC-May 11, 2021
- Investorideas.com, a leader in crypto
and blockchain investing news brings you today’s special edition of the Crypto Corner podcast featuring an exclusive interview
with Brad Moore, CEO of Global Cannabis Applications Corp. (GCAC) (CSE:APP) (FSE:2FA) (OTCQB:FUAPF). Mr. Moore discusses his company’s
use of blockchain and decentralized finance (DeFi) in the medical cannabis
space.
Global Cannabis Applications Corp, (“GCAC”) is a
global leader in designing, developing, SaaS licensing and acquiring innovative
blockchain data technologies for the medical cannabis industry.

From the interview:
“This
is a form of end-user marketing to that market segment that uses both medical
cannabis and decentralized finance,” Moore said.
A
recent press
release
announced launch of the GCAC token on Uniswap on the Ethereum (ETH) blockchain. The token was built and is operated by Abbey
Technology, a Uniswap-based DeFi service provider. Moore pointed out that
GCAC’s relationship to the token is through a marketing contract with Abbey.
“They
created the token, and we engaged in a marketing contract with them to use our
name in association with the token,” he said.
Moore
explained in the press release:
“First and
foremost, We - Are - Blockchain. So, I’m delighted to expand our marketing
reach to fellow blockchain proponents. Cannabis consumers come in many forms
and I am really excited to be marketing directly to the Uniswap DeFi community
and raising awareness of cannabis efficacy and quality amongst this rather
liquid demographic.”
A
key feature of the token is GCAC’s commitment to purchase GCAC tokens on
Uniswap with one percent of its quarterly revenues.
“What’s
interesting, as part of our marketing contract, is that we committed to invest
one percent of our top-line revenue,” Moore said. “That’s why when you look at
next year’s deal with Herb Industries, it has the potential to add $160,000
into the liquidity pool.”
“The
whole idea is that we’re investing our hard-earned dollars into the liquidity
pool in a buyback, so actually, people can see us putting money into the
program and as the company grows, it legitimizes what that token actually
means.”
The
deal with the Malta-based Herb Industries Ltd. was announced in a press
release
on April 13, 2021 and involves a definitive three-year software licensing
agreement wherein GCAC will license its Citizen Green Efixii platform as part
of the former’s “‘technology farm’ for use in its cannabis compliance and
consumer transparency.” Efixii is an app that tracks the full cycle of cannabis
cultivations, represented by a QR code.
“With
cannabis, because it’s such a complex plant, you actually have to measure it on
a per gram basis of consumption,” Moore said. “So think about that. All the
data points from it growing; all the way through cultivation, all the way
through testing, all the way through manufacturing – if it’s going into an
edible or into an oil-based product – and all the way to consumption. And
then we measure your experience with the Efixii app … and put that on the
blockchain. Now we’re getting to the point where we’ve got consumption, on a
per gram basis, overlaid with thousands of other people.”
Moore
explained the utility of the data that the company accrues can be leveraged by
regulators.
“Once
you get big data like that, you can do some interesting things,” he said. “Most
importantly, a regulator – when there’s a lack of data – can look at
that and write meaningful regulations. We’re actually doing this project on
behalf of consumers, for the whole point of regulators being able to get behind
this and see what a working blockchain can actually do.”
