Episode 248 is the 46th episode of Season 4.
Today we're joined by Shaggy and AK of Death Row Cannabis, Snoop Dogg’s brand launched under Death Row Records. Shaggy is Snoop's longtime sound engineer and handles quality control for the brand, a job he had been doing unofficially in the studio for years before Snoop asked him to make it official. AK runs cultivation. He has been growing for more than twenty years, starting in Seattle, and joined Death Row in late 2022 alongside CEO Tiffany Chin.
In this one, AK tells us about his first grow. He was seventeen, his parents were out of the country for almost three months and he turned their laundry room into a garden with security lights and his mom's garment racks. He got within a few weeks of harvest before they called to say they were coming home early. Shaggy and AK explain why they pick flower on terpenes before THC.
They walk us through how they vet a partner before the Death Row name goes on a bag, which starts with gloves on and a walk down every row of the grow. We wrap up with the Nevada launch and their presence in Las Vegas, and new loyalty app available on iOS and Android.
