Happy Munkey, a New York City-based dispensary and cannabis lifestyle brand, has transformed into more than a storefront, embodying the culture and community. With a second location in Brooklyn, Happy Munkey offers various cannabis products and a unique experience. The brand is expanding into podcasting, merchandising, and television, with a focus on providing safe, legal cannabis and advocating for legalization. < Back Munkey Business Dec 31, 2024 Source: Richard Pérez-Feria Cannabis Now Article Link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link Within, I’d say, a few seconds of listening to Vladimir Bautista speak about his red-hot New York City-based dispensary and cannabis lifestyle brand, Happy Munkey, the unfamiliar feeling you’re definitely experiencing is unabashed inspiration. This Vlad dude is dope. Bautista and longtime business partner and high school friend Ramon Reyes have transformed Happy Munkey into more than a storefront dispensary: It’s the pride of a culture, a neighborhood and a city. These guys even brought two Clio Awards to Dyckman Street in the Heights. Now *that’s* cool. With a second location in the heart of downtown Brooklyn—a stone’s throw from the Barclay Center, home of the NBA’s Nets and NHL’s Islanders—Happy Munkey serves up quality flower, pre-rolls, edibles, tinctures, concentrates, vapes and more. But what a list of top-shelf products can’t convey is the level of swag (or is it rizz?) the entire Happy Munkey experience is. Its NYC authenticity comes at you from every square inch of the shop to every word from its proprietors. In 2024, Happy Munkey *feels* like New York because it *is* New York. In fact, the pride of Inwood’s owners and motto are one and the same: “We don’t do it for the clout, we do it for the culture.” PHOTO Jordan Hiraldo So, then, is Happy Munkey a global brand in its infancy? Is the Starbucks model the desired expansion plan for the cool brand? “Not really,” Bautista says. “Maybe it’s a bit more like, say, TAO nightclubs, where they only open a few clubs in very select locations with world-class results.” A TAO-like cannabis HQ sounds pretty rad, right? How about a reality show based on Happy Munkey, then? Bautista smiles mischievously and reveals that they’ve been filming behind-the-scenes for about 18 months or so. “You never know,” he says. PHOTO Jordan Hiraldo Bautista says he and Reyes (and the entire Happy Munkey family) have a passion for the plant and its medicinal properties, and they are, in fact, advocates for cannabis legalization and education. Bautista tells me that Happy Munkey’s genesis comes from a desire to provide safe, legal cannabis to the community that’s given so much to them. As a lifestyle brand, Happy Munkey is making moves well beyond their dispensaries—as great as those are—into podcasting (“The Happy Munkey Podcast”), merchandising, television (“Munkey TV”) and, for a while, even magazines (*Munkey Biz*). Happy Munkey does so much more than see, hear or speak no evil. This elevated cannabis 360 experience brings joy, quality and success back to the very place they call home. That’s *Nueva York*, baby!

Former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich is advocating for the therapeutic use of ibogaine for serious mental and physical health conditions, despite its Schedule I classification in the U.S. He highlights its potential for treating addiction and references a Stanford University study on its effectiveness for PTSD, anxiety, and depression in veterans. Texas has also passed legislation to research ibogaine for substance use disorders. Other figures like a Navy SEAL veteran, HHS Secretary Kennedy, and VA Secretary Doug Collins are also promoting psychedelic therapy research and access for veterans. < Back Former GOP Speaker Promotes Ibogaine as Cutting-Edge Treatment Sep 26, 2025 Source: Kyle Jaeger Marijuana Moment Article Link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich is becoming a vocal advocate for the therapeutic power of ibogaine, a potent psychedelic. On his podcast, Gingrich explored how this "cutting-edge" science could revolutionize treatment for severe addiction and mental health struggles, particularly for veterans facing PTSD. He highlighted the irony that while common drugs like aspirin are grandfathered into our system, ibogaine remains a restricted Schedule I substance despite showing significant promise in studies from places like Stanford. This shift isn't just talk; Texas has already greenlit a state-backed research consortium for ibogaine trials. Within the Trump administration, figures like HHS Secretary Kennedy are also signaling a commitment to expanding psychedelic access for veterans within the next year. For the cannabis community, this mainstreaming of psychedelic research is a massive win. It challenges the "war on drugs" narrative and pushes for a more scientific, health-focused approach to plant medicine. As these high-profile figures advocate for better accessibility and reduced regulatory hurdles, it paves the way for a future where natural therapies are respected and available to those who need them most. < Previous Next > Recent Reviews Bomb Popz Infused Pre-Roll - Fade Co.

New federal regulations give cannabis genetics businesses until November to update their business plans to comply with a hemp ban threatening seed banks. < Back How New Federal Rules Could Wipe Out Your Go-To Strains and Seed Banks Jul 21, 2026 Source: Chris Roberts MJbizDaily Article Link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link Big changes are heading to the homegrown cannabis scene, and anyone who loves cultivating their own stash needs to pay close attention. A looming shift in federal policy is shaking up the genetics market, targeting the interstate shipment of seeds and clones. For years, growers enjoyed a golden era of accessibility, ordering unique strains online thanks to loopholes that classified seeds as low-THC hemp. However, new federal guidelines taking effect this November will judge genetic material by the potency of the parent plant, effectively cutting off the cross-country pipeline for high-THC cultivars. This policy change directly impacts the diversity of options available to regular consumers and cultivators alike. Independent breeders, who have driven the incredible variety and quality of the modern cannabis market, face massive regulatory hurdles. While larger companies might successfully navigate the compliance maze, smaller operations could be pushed out, potentially leading to a more corporate, less exciting marketplace. Fortunately, there is still time to adapt. In-state purchases at local nurseries and licensed dispensaries will remain completely permitted in legal jurisdictions. Breeders are also pivoting to local distribution models to ensure high-quality options stay within state lines. If you have been planning to expand your personal genetic library or secure a few rare strains for your future setups, the next few months represent a crucial window to stock up. Staying informed and supporting local geneticists will be key to keeping our favorite flower varieties alive and accessible. < Previous Next > Recent Reviews Bomb Popz Infused Pre-Roll - Fade Co.

Virginia's upcoming gubernatorial election will significantly impact the future of recreational marijuana sales in the state, with the two leading candidates holding opposing views. Current Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears (R) strongly opposes legalization, citing concerns about it being a "gateway drug" and "decimating communities." In contrast, former U.S. Rep. Abigail Spanberger (D-VA) supports establishing a regulated cannabis market, emphasizing public safety, economic growth, and reinvesting tax revenue into communities and public schools. While possession and home cultivation of marijuana have been legal since 2022, retail sales remain forbidden due to Governor Youngkin's vetoes of previous legislative efforts. The new governor will likely determine whether regulated sales become a reality in Virginia. < Back Virginia Gubernatorial Candidates Show Sharp Differences on Cannabis Sep 19, 2025 Source: Kyle Jaeger Marijuana Moment Article Link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link Virginia's upcoming gubernatorial race is a high-stakes showdown for the state's cannabis community. While adults can legally possess and grow their own green, Governor Youngkin has repeatedly blocked the creation of a regulated retail market. Now, with early voting underway, two candidates offer vastly different futures. Democrat Abigail Spanberger is pushing for a transparent, regulated system that reinvests tax dollars into schools and communities. On the other flip side, Republican Winsome Earle-Sears has doubled down on "gateway drug" rhetoric and remains staunchly against commercial sales. This election is a massive deal for Virginia tokers because the winner essentially holds the keys to the dispensary doors. Choosing a pro-reform leader could finally end the era of vetoes and transition the state from a "legal but nowhere to buy" limbo into a safe, thriving market. For the industry, it’s the difference between continuing a billion-dollar illicit trade or building a legitimate, tax-paying economic engine that benefits everyone. < Previous Next > Recent Reviews Bomb Popz Infused Pre-Roll - Fade Co.

Oklahoma's governor proposed having voters revisit and potentially "shut down" the state's medical marijuana program over concerns about illegal activity and foreign influence, but the move drew mixed reactions, including a break from the top GOP senator who favors continued regulation instead of undoing the law, and caution from the Attorney General regarding the cost of reimbursing hundreds of licensees. < Back Top Oklahoma GOP Senator Opposes Governor’s Push to Repeal Medical Cannabis Feb 9, 2026 Source: Kyle Jaeger Marijuana Moment Article Link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link The political scene in Oklahoma is heating up as Governor Kevin Stitt recently called for a public vote to potentially dismantle the state's medical marijuana program. However, he’s facing significant pushback from within his own party. Senate President Pro Tempore Lonnie Paxton has voiced strong opposition, arguing that you can’t simply "unring the bell" on an established industry where people have invested their life savings. While the Governor cites concerns over illegal activity and foreign influence, Paxton and other lawmakers believe the answer lies in better regulation and enforcement rather than total prohibition. Even the state's Attorney General noted that shutting things down would likely require massive taxpayer-funded reimbursements to licensed business owners. This clash is a huge win for the pro-cannabis community because it shows that even conservative leaders recognize the importance of protecting patient access and local businesses. For regular tokers, it’s a reminder that while the "wild west" era of Oklahoma weed might be ending, influential voices are fighting to ensure the medicine remains available and the industry stays stable. Sustaining a regulated market is always better for the community than returning to the shadows. < Previous Next > Recent Reviews Bomb Popz Infused Pre-Roll - Fade Co.

The newsletter provides updates on cannabis-related legislation and political developments across the US, including contrasting views from NJ governor candidates, advancing cannabis and hemp bills in OH and PA, and the approval of a timeline for dispensary licenses in RI. It also covers federal lobbying efforts by alcohol and other companies around hemp drinks, a pause in a judicial nomination amid a marijuana legalization campaign investigation, and research into CBD-like compounds developed from caraway seeds. International, scientific, business, and cultural cannabis news are also included. < Back Alcohol Companies Lobby Congress on Cannabis Beverage Issues Oct 22, 2025 Source: Tom Angell Marijuana Moment Article Link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link The cannabis landscape is shifting fast, and big business is officially knocking on the door. Major alcohol companies and delivery giants like DoorDash are now lobbying Congress, specifically eyeing the booming hemp-infused drink market. While it’s a bit "corporate," this pressure could finally force federal movement on banking and regulation. On the state level, it’s a mixed bag. New Jersey’s gubernatorial race features candidates with polar opposite views, while Ohio lawmakers are unfortunately moving to roll back some voter-approved consumer protections. More positively, Pennsylvania is stepping up its regulatory game with a new oversight board, and Rhode Island is clearing the path for social equity dispensaries. Even science is getting creative, with researchers finding seizure-fighting "CBD-like" compounds in caraway seeds. For the everyday toker, these updates are a reminder that our community’s progress is constantly being debated in state houses. Seeing mainstream industries jump in suggests that normalization is inevitable, but we have to stay vocal to ensure those "corporate" interests don't steamroll the small shops and consumer rights we’ve fought for. < Previous Next > Recent Reviews Bomb Popz Infused Pre-Roll - Fade Co.
