I love learning about entrepreneurs who are confident in their educational agility and self-made talents. None are more impressive than Rob Tankson, the studious and pragmatic co/founder of PrestoDoctor. Rob is concise, crisp and well-spoken. He has established a platform that helps people within the strata of cannabis healing. I respect that deeply because I’m in the medical cannabis program in New Jersey. We need more people like Rob to pave the way against stigmas and the challenges that cannabis passes through. Now, with my best wishes, please eMeet Rob Tankson.
My life as a cannabis alchemist is pretty mundane in comparison to self-made superstars like the music empresario, Rapper Jim Jones. How often do I get the chance to communicate to someone as prolific and outright famous as this gentleman? Never! Mr. Jones has an enlightening story to tell and also has created a line of lovely flowers to pave his way to further success.
PARIS CALL
I was visiting Oregon this past winter when I first discovered Lady Jays, created by Ladies of Paradise founders Jade Daniels, Harlee Case and their team. These joints are anything but small, and they kick serious butt — so much so, I stuffed a few packs into my briefcase so I’d have enough for later. Lady Jays have added deep enlightenment to my writing, and my recommendation is that you try their various versions: THC, CBD, CBG, and their new CBD/CBG blend. I suggest you enjoy a THC jay alongside one of their jays featuring CBD and CBG in conjunction with each other. Why? This is called the Entourage Effect, recently updated to the Ensemble Effect. According to cannabis educator Emma Chasen of Eminent Consulting, the Ensemble Effect is the same theory concept, just a slight change in language. Chasen says, “Entourage conveys that THC is the superstar with all other compounds acting as its entourage, whereas Ensemble more clearly evokes all compounds working together synergistically with no one compound as the superstar.”

Warren Bobrow=WB: Please tell me about yourself. Where are you from? Where do you reside now? How did you discover cannabis? CBD? Did you use the plant for pain and stress management?

Warren Bobrow=WB: Where are you from? Where are you now in the world? Why cannabis instead of business, law, medicine or what have you? What brought you to the plant?
Alex Shreeve=AS: I was born and raised in Seattle, Washington, however, lived in California and Florida for High School and College. I was a medical card holder prior to Recreational Cannabis to address health issues and my personal sense of wellness. My passion has always been cannabis and I’ve been drawn to the complexity of flavors and corresponding effects of flower. I began to notice the subtle flavors on the inhale and exhale of specific cultivars, motivating a lifelong search for the best genetics in the world.

Warren Bobrow=WB: How did you discover cannabis? Why cannabis? Why now?
I met Anthony Dindia a month or so ago at New Jersey’s latest cannabis dispensary. He had just spent the past few grueling days of night and day work getting the Elizabeth, NJ location for the Verano family of dispensaries ready to open and greet their guests.
Anthony is unmistakably a key player in this remarkably fluid organization and deeply reflective time of the pandemic, Covid-19. A take-charge man who loves what he does, and that reflects deeply upon his life and philosophy for healing.
The world is his oyster.

Warren Bobrow=WB: Where are you from? What propelled you on your journey? How does cannabis inspire you?
Justin Dye=JD: I grew up in Winslow, Indiana, a small rural community with a population of 1,200 in the southwest corner of the state. The major industries were coal mining and farming with honest and hardworking people. It was a great place to grow up. I grew up a big sports fan and have always been very competitive. For college, I attended DePauw University in Greencastle, Indiana where I majored in Political Science. As I began my career, I brought with me not only the great education I received from DePauw but also the hard-working, honest and competitiveness that were instilled in me from growing up. These traits are what have propelled my career throughout the last two decades.
