This week's show starts with an update on Jesse's experience at Benzinga's California Cannabis Spotlight conference in Anaheim. He explains who attended, what was discussed, and why you can't paint California with one brush. Jesse points out that California operators like LEEF Brands (CSE: LEEF, OTCQX: LEEEF) have transformational catalysts on the horizon and may stand out in 2025.
Ascend Wellness (CSE: AAWH, OTCQX: AAWH) CEO Sam Brill joins us and shares his background and how he hopes to evolve and optimize the business. We cover the company's cost-saving initiatives, recent quarterly results, Ohio's launch, and the importance of value brands. The conversation with Sam concludes by getting his perspective on the recent political appointments and why he's excited about the next step in the Boise Schiller Flexner case.
