Huge JRE video that’s playing in the middle of Time Square. Like f*****ng 50 feet high or something. I’m looking at that thing and I’m like that thing is insane.”

F****ng around and having comedians over and do hits out of this volcano vaporizer and get so obliterated. We literally didn’t even know what we were talking about while we were talking. Just fun with no pretense and no thought whatsoever. Then one day this is going to be the best media platform in the world.[chuckles]”
