When I search my friend’s name all I see is news articles about his death. Instagram is full of love from friends and fam but I want to make sure the world knows what he accomplished professionally too. I know that was super important to him. I built out this page on the LTRMN site and this post is linking to it to tell Google it’s a good one. We miss you like crazy Dana Ryssdal.
I’m very proud of the team and my partners in the next chapter of LTRMN, it’ll be the best one.
In the last couple years I’ve come to appreciate the power of publishing my thoughts on the internet in the form of works, primarily on Twitter and a little on LinkedIn.
It’s still a bit unnerving but getting better.
TikTok, video, and moreso relentless publishing of short form video is a much more daunting task but after watching what can happen on TikTok by simply showing up and working at it: I’ve decided to give it a go.

It me, making short-form videos.
I’ll be talking about products and brands every day, at least once a day, on TikTok. My wife refuses to follow me.

All that ranting and raving on LinkedIn finally added up to something: A newsletter called Free Smoke. Aptly subheaded “cannabis and bullshit”, Free Smoke is a twice monthly rambling on a variety of not-boring topics centered around cannabis. Free Smoke is longform, ish, and you can subscribe here for past issues and to get new ones in your inbox.

I logged into my Instagram for the first time in a couple weeks to find an explosion of comments from a Unilad post that didn’t even tag me. Life comes at u fast.
The thread I wrote about my journey over the last 5 years in cannabis got picked up by Indian journalist Bharat Sharma who did a feature in India Times.
