Hello my friends. Today we’re back with Joseph Verdone and he’s talking about how his product has affected special needs children. It is a very important session today. But I want to warn you, and I apologize in advance. My audio was kind of squirrely, so forgive the technical issues, but don’t miss what Joseph has to say. It’s pretty important. And tell all of your friends with special needs kids.

Welcome to season three of the Cannaba Verum podcast, the cannabis truth podcast. I speak the language of cannabis freely and uncensored while educating my audience on safe use this live Plant Therapy. You should know what’s in your cannabis. what’s good and what’s not. It does not come with an FDA stamp of approval yet. using cannabis mindfully as medication is a different concept in Western healthcare philosophy, specifically the past 100 years. There’s a lot to learn and reconsider.

The information you’ll find here come straight from scientists and clinicians doing the work and reporting their findings in real time through various live online outlets.

The scientific truth of cannabis is finally getting out and is wide open for all to see it respected medical sites like pubmed.gov and JAMA, the Journal of American Medical Association and I’m right there in the thick of it with all those titans of medicine… as a fly on the wall. I’m not a doctor, nor did I go to med school. But I did take dozens of private cannabis courses and still engage in continuing education offered by cannabis experts scientists over the past few years and slowly began to see and understand the bigger picture.

Now I talk to people all day long about cannabis and hopefully inspire them to research the facts as we know them today. Cannabis is an amazing alternative in health remedies. It can reportedly alleviate typical disease problems and troubling side effects, even those caused by synthetic prescriptions.

This is Honey Smith Walls, a 21st century cannabis shaman, not a doctor, not a scientist, raised by nuns and wolves in the verdant cattle pastures of the Oklahoma oil fields. I’m here to amplify the truth of this great big story in cannabis in historical, political, and scientific terms, so you can make educated decisions about the medicine you choose to ingest.

Joseph Verdone C2W 3:45

Some of the interesting things as you were bringing up information of all of the records from Mayo Clinic from his name his first name is John… for the reduction in the combination of CBDa – hemp water – to the chemo and that the tumor in his liver had shrunk 60%.

So they gave him four months… he got 15. He felt that he would have gotten more if he’d started doing the chemo again.

One of the interesting things that was said to be by doctors… that sometimes chemo makes the quality of life. They say ‘longer’ but the quality sucks. But he made it another weeks, but three of those weeks are spent in a nightmare inside of emergency.  That’s not quality of life. No.

So if we can give quality of life then I don’t promise anybody anything if I can help you with your quality of life and I can help you get rid of the pain, you know and give you a longer time without having to take an opioid and get constipation and sick to the stomach and everything else that it comes with. And cannabis plant helps. I’m not talking to everyone out there that’s getting high and is helping themselves.

Honey Smith Walls 5:23

I know. I know.  PotHeads are still patients.

Joseph Verdone C2W 5:30

Right? Yeah. Lowering blood pressure.

Honey Smith Walls 5:34

They’re increasing their tolerance, their heart, their introspection, all of that.

Joseph Verdone C2W 5:40

So their blood sugar is equaling out. Right so many things that people don’t understand that well is going down.

Honey Smith Walls 5:48

Negative looping thoughts stop happening, you know? Yeah, all kinds of shit happens when you’re a pothead.

Joseph Verdone C2W 5:56

So today it is the healthiest day in the United States and anybody around the world to be honest with you. This is the first frickin day that they did something healthy for their body.

Honey Smith Walls 6:09

Yeah, bless you for saying it too.

Joseph Verdone C2W 6:10

It’s true. I mean, you know if they would just do it in moderation. Start looking at medical principles of the product. Let’s do some CBDa. Let’s do some THCA and CBGa and all the terpenes.

Honey Smith Walls 6:29

I really can’t wait.

Joseph Verdone C2W 6:32

Grape or orange.  This stuff is like coffee. I have doubleBuzzcoffee.com I can pull into a Starbucks. I can pull into a Dutch Bros, the guy who runs Dutch Bros down here. And I flavored this syrup. I can flavor the coffee, I can flavor the whipped cream or infuse it I can infuse the milk I can adjust the stones I can infuse every single thing right down to the sugar. I made cotton candy, fully infused.

We’ve made it two ways… one of them we made with THCa which became THC as you’re spinning it and the other one was CBDa which became CBD. But in a raw form. Even in coffee, hot coffee, it won’t change because it’s trapped inside of the coffee. So you’re changing everything unless the coffee was really hot and you’re going to see the steam come up well then you’ll see some of the terpenes disappear. You’ll smell. So we do that we’ve got a whole bunch of Thayer foods… anything you can think of from hot dogs to farm dogs to pizza dough to whatever.

Honey Smith Walls 7:43

Dude you just made my head explode… tell us how we can get in touch with you.

Joseph Verdone C2W 7:49

Go to VerdoneWellness.com

Joseph Verdone C2W 7:58

I’m a paison… an Italian boy.

Honey Smith Walls 8:01

All righty then. That’s excellent. Well, I I really am thrilled and tickled to chat with you, Joseph and I can’t wait for our audience to hear what you have managed to do. You’re such a creative person.

Joseph Verdone C2W 8:24

You have to have an audience guy, you have to have people out there to listen and say, you know, my big thing is this and I’ll be honest, within everything, and LinkedIn and over the past couple weeks I have gotten more people coming to me wanting to you know, give me money. I really, really appreciate it and that’s what we want but what we want to be able to do is obviously produce a product and put it out in a medical product.

Because it’s not just the water… we’re just manufacturing water. I can put water in shampoo, conditioner, I can put it in whatever you can think of and like I told you I even infused the canopies just for the hell of it.

Honey Smith Walls 9:12

Shampoo too.

Joseph Verdone C2W 9:15

We made shampoo for Devon because of the scars on his head. I made them toothpaste six years ago because he brushes his teeth. I figured what better way for him to get his first dose in the morning then through the buccal mucosa and him brushing his teeth. So think about ice cream… coming into summer. CBD a soft serve ice cream, whatever flavor you want. What better way to give somebody their medication inside of a hospital inside of a nursing home. You could give them a little tiny code as a snack. And they have okay, it doesn’t matter what you put it in. It goes in every single thing. It is the most versatile thing. And good luck for anybody out there listening in the world to figure out how to do it because I have sent this stuff to every place. Even the big lab up in Utah say “how do I do it”? They can’t figure it out. Because nobody has the machine has nothing to do with the oil. It has to do how the oil is made and the oil is one process… boom. Put the flower in. I got oil… I got water,

Honey Smith Walls 10:30

Good onya buddy. Proud of ya and thank you for your service to mankind.

Joseph Verdone C2W 10:34

Oh, yeah. Thank you for having me on your show.

Honey Smith Walls 10:37

I’m really tickled that you could come…

Joseph Verdone C2W 10:40

Did I tell you that I had two radio shows. I had two radio shows on automotive and then in Vegas on SEMA which is the largest automotive Sean world I was on stage there for 10 years teaching everybody kind of a widgets to widget and people would think about it no matter how you apply it… You apply the same process to sales use. You have always apply standards to manufacturing so I would teach people how to sell stuff and how I became successful. Magazine wise, I’ve been on probably the covers of more automotive magazines with the vehicles than anybody… So yeah, I was a stunt man. Watch the movie ‘Used Cars’…       I’m driving in that and used to do Western stunts.

Honey Smith Walls:

Oh, my grandfather’s favorites.

Joseph Verdone

Went to chef school learn how to cook by Chez Louis himself. Yeah, no shit. Yeah, I was wanting to go to I wanted to go to chef school. And I got accepted in Poughkeepsie, New York. And Chez Louis himself wrote a letter, a recommendation and I had gotten accepted and at that time, it was only like 125 students out of every state. I didn’t want to move… my dad goes, you know where you’re going, right? I go. No, he goes Poughkeepsie between Albany and New York, cold as shit. I didn’t want to go. So I didn’t go.

And then we opened up restaurants… my brother John started Potato Hut that would be baked potatoes with a topping. Everybody would know me… I had a pretzel company. I was selling pretzels. I had a concession company and I was selling soft pretzels. And I introduced that soft pretzel the super pretzel that’s how they became big pretzels. Oh then and Jelly Bellies. I was the first one in the United States to sell Jelly Bellies after selling the Hell out of Jelly Bellies in Phoenix, Arizona.

Honey Smith Walls 12:49

Oh my goodness.

Joseph Verdone C2W 12:50

I mean Yeah. So you know, I’ve always been an entrepreneur.  I’ve worked for myself. I’ve had the ability to have billionaires and trillionaires that are the most normal people I’ve ever met. They taught me if they’re wearing it, they don’t have it. It’s the ones that don’t wear it that you gotta be afraid. Oh, wow. That means you think about it because every billionaire doesn’t wear a ton of jewelry. They don’t wear nothing. They don’t need to.  Look at Elon Musk… he don’t wear Jack.

Joseph Verdone C2W 13:31

They’re giving people… right… and so I’ve been blessed with having people that believed in God… that prayed to God… that understand that hey, I in all honesty… I was in this for the money. But the day Devon gave me a kiss on my cheek and thanked me for saving his life I changed… I got on my knees to God and said what’s next?

And that’s what happened, everything. And I mean up to yesterday… this morning… the phone calls that I’m getting our people that want to give but I told them this morning on I don’t want to ever cross and have somebody that has a child that has something wrong with them to even think about giving money. Right? I don’t need paid for product. I mean, investment. That’s not what I’m about. But it’s there and the individuals are out there. There are some of them suckers out there and they’re men, enough of the headhunters and a money venture capitalist. And you fricking guys don’t care a damn about somebody being alive. I’m just saying… the doctor come to me and said, famous doctor says Joseph… He says… Let me explain. He says… what you’re doing is commendable. It’s unreal. He goes… well keep in mind… the people above, don’t want anyone to get well.

Promo:

Honey Smith Walls 13:37

Hey my friends, I want to give you a tip about a neurologist I know and trust. Dr. Anthony Mazo is a highly rated specialist here in Melbourne, Florida, one of the first physicians to research and study cannabis since 2016 when it was legalized in Florida. Dr Mazo is not quick to prescribe traditional synthetic chemicals when he knows that this gentle live plant therapy will likely give needed relief.

I know this to be true because I had to see him for my own old lady neuropathy issues. He did not prescribe the usual stuff. He told me to go get a particular kind of cannabis instead and use it in a very specific way to find relief. And that is what every doctor in America should have in their little black bag.

His clinic details will be in my show notes for you. Why? Because he’s a trusted cannabis expert in the field of neurology right here in Melbourne. Dr. Anthony Mazo at the Brevard Neuro Center on Nasa Boulevard. See his details in my show notes.

Honey Smith Walls 15:21

Right, well, here’s all that corporate corruption…

Joseph Verdone C2W 16:39

He’s talking to you and I mean hearing it from him… who he was. I go what? And that’s his whole life. Right? He’s just trying to help people. Yeah. And to know that he’s fighting the system. Right? This is it’s fighting the system. So if there’s people out there that really care about somebody, you know, because you never know if it’s gonna be you… so I got to tell ya… there’s this guy who told me one day… the last thing he did the last phone call he made before he went in to heart surgery… He called me and says Joey… don’t ever you call me Joey. He’s really, really, really special. Call me Joseph. He says Joey…. You’re my last phone call. He goes… you keep going where you’re going. He goes… because you’re on a path… and he goes… and then one day, everybody will figure it out.

And that was his last phone call because he didn’t make it through surgery.

And so you know, to stick on a path I’ll be honest with you, I got $2 million dollars,  every dime that I probably had saved for my kids… and if they go this path, and my son understands because Devon’s alive, he’d be dead, right?  And that’s an unbelievable feeling in the world. Even if they pass, they come visit me. They tell me how they feel. They’ve helped me get Devin to where he is. There’s seven individuals that have died. Seven individuals that went through pain to help Devin know how because he couldn’t tell me how he felt. Right. He can’t tell you and they went through pain and John my friend John Oliver, he completely quit taking everything and helped me figure out how to get them in and this is honest to God truth… to get Devon through the surgery he went through.

Okay. He passed away. But we did not know he had pancreatic liver cancer and stage four brain cancer. And so we did not know. You know how Devin would be…. you’re having an issue with a child. And you’re wondering if the dosage that you’re giving the child is… and what we found is that what John taught us is that less was more. Yeah, those small dosages that people go… it’s not 100… It’s not 20… It’s not even 10… In a CBDa.

Honey Smith Walls 19:20

It is quite a different product and it’s so much more potent than its counterpart.

Joseph Verdone C2W 19:28

Right. So when somebody looks at a regular CoA (Certificate of Analysis)… someone that you may know, it says 2.0 on the label or you read it they got 20.0 on your milligram… if you want to go look at mine… it’s 689mg.

Honey Smith Walls 19:50

Oh, goodness, can we see those certificates of analysis on our website?

Joseph Verdone C2W 19:56

I put them up on LinkedIn. Yeah.

Honey Smith Walls 20:01

That’s gonna be a new website?

Joseph Verdone C2W 20:02

I put the new logo up there which is C to W and our new labels up and available as soon as that gets done, which I don’t understand. I write programs for automotive… I don’t know how to do a website like that. And I don’t know why it takes him so long to lay in the CoA but it has to have a link to it and…

Honey Smith Walls 20:31

Web design is its own other frustrating animal. I’m right there with you buddy and had my own chat about… you know, web changes this morning for a couple of hours and I really like the website. Well, I had additions to put on my website. So you know, go see it when you have time. I’m gonna send you a link anyway. I will just I can’t tell you how tickled I am that my audience gets to hear this story. And you and I are going to become friends and start communicating about some projects together. I think you are very sweet and caring man and we need more in the world.

Joseph Verdone C2W 21:13

Thank you. I would love your help. I would take any help. You know, again, out of everything that I’ve done, and I’m not a… I’ve made made my money, but in all honesty other than my son, holding him after born and saving Devon and in helping individuals that are just devastated and have nowhere to go for pain or something.

Honey Smith Walls 21:45

That is a calling.

Joseph Verdone C2W 21:47

I mean, there’s not a better thing in the world for somebody to thank you for the time that they have left on life. We have to think about that. Like wow, that was what drives me. I think that drives me like nothing ever had.

Honey Smith Walls 22:00

It drives me to all the stories that we hear…

Joseph Verdone C2W 22:09

For Ukraine.

Honey Smith Walls 22:10

Thank you for saying that…  I’ve asked my band to learn the national Ukrainian anthem and it’s just glorious to play.

Joseph Verdone C2W 22:20

I had a woman reach out from LinkedIn from there. On the water I guess she grows hemp there and you know, I just hope that something worse doesn’t happen.

Honey Smith Walls 22:35

Love to hear more about that story of her growing hemp there somewhere on the water.

Joseph Verdone C2W 22:40

I have a woman for you by the name of April. April is the first hemp license out here in Arizona. She started because her son is an adult. I think he’s 17 or 18 with epilepsy. Oh my goodness. I got some stories and she’s been on the phone with Andrea. The other thing I would like to give you is Andrea, and then I would like to be able to introduce you to Devon’s doctor, oh, and the phone with some of the other doctors that we know. And you know, because the information they’re going to share with you. They’re retired. So there’s no implications between you know, I don’t think anything between Matthew and Phoenix Children’s Hospital. So he’s already said it…”You’d have to put a gun to my head…” So…

Honey Smith Walls 23:34

Amazing that you even have to qualify that point and audience… what that means is that there might be legal, litigious issues, even for a doctor speaking out about cannabis one way, you know in the affirmative way, and so ridiculous that that even has to be highlighted.

Joseph Verdone C2W 23:59

But right and commend the doctors out there that are seeing that cannabis can help and other ways that traditional medicines or Western medicines can’t.

Honey Smith Walls 24:09

Exactly. Legislators get out of the panties and black bags of doctors please.

Joseph Verdone C2W 24:15

Everybody go out and buy hemp seed oil. You got acne on your kid’s face, give them a bar of good soap, hot water and a washcloth… cover his face with hemp oil and in three days. They’ll have no acne, none. Anywhere. You got wrinkles on your face. Rub hempseed oil on it. You got wrinkles anywhere you want. And the other thing about it is is if you got a wart, put hemp seed oil on the wart and watch what happens. Interesting stuff my mom 92… got rid of her wart… right.

Honey Smith Walls 24:50

You gotta love change. Blessings upon you and Pax Vobiscum my friend, take care.

Joseph Verdone C2W 24:53

Ciao.

Honey Smith Walls 25:26
