Potcast 159: Ganjapreneurship, Podcasting, and Pop Culture
Johanna Nuding
As fellow ganjapreneurs and podcasters, when Danny Keith and I get together, we talk shop. Today’s chat meanders from building a podcast worth the effort to riffing on the importance of cannabis culture and its value to the business of cannabis. We also have an unexpected drop in that I just couldn’t take out. And if you stick around to the end, DK always delivers unsolicited advice to feed your entrepreneurial spirit whether you’re in the cannabis game or not.
You long-time listeners first met Danny Keith over 100 episodes ago as the founder and CEO of Cannabis Club TV, which he sold in 2019. When considering his next move, DK didn’t go too far from home. On this potcast he shares the spark that ignited another reunion of pop culture legends, Cheech and Chong, and their desire to infuse legacy cannabis culture into the dispensary shopping experience.
