Before legalization.
Before tech.
Before anyone dared to say craft cannabis out loud…

There was Bob Cain and BigMike — two outlaw growers rewriting the rules from deep in the shadows.

In this never-before-told conversation, BigMike reunites with his original grow partner from 37+ years ago to reveal the wild, risky, and brilliant roots of what would become a global cannabis empire.

💥 From backwoods busts to brilliant breakthroughs — this episode is packed with real-deal stories every grower should hear.

  • The birth of “ooey gooey” flower and top-shelf standards
