Today High On Healthy we are joined by David Krantz, Epigenetic Health Coach. David carries his family’s music history into the future (his great grandfather was a composer in Krakow, Poland before WWII and his Aunt is an accomplished opera singer) as he leans heavily on skillful synthetic sound design, reprocessed acoustic sound sources, and crisp production. One of the rare producers who can transcend the typical barriers between electronic dance music and traditional composition, David is at home in a variety of contexts and settings. Spanning the range between heavy bass music and contemplative downtempo, his versatility, depth of expression, and command over detail has earned him accolades from some of the most respected minds in forward thinking electronic music. Futexture is music for music lovers. Its music written in homage to the boundless majesty of nature, the complexity and strangeness of human relationships, and the ineffable nature of individual experience. It is the merger of tradition and the incalculable future, dancing together on the razor thin edge of now. It is what happens when David Krantz, a North Carolina native and multi instrumentalist, titrates his experience into sound.

Today on High On Healthy our host is joined by Cannabis Educator & Industry Consultant, Emma Chasen. Emma has a mission to educate people on the science behind cannabis so that they may take charge of their own healing. After graduating from Brown University in 2014 with a degree in Medicinal Plant Research, Emma went on to coordinate Clinical Oncology trials with the Brown University Oncology Research Group. When her supervisor refused a cannabis trial in favor of another expensive pharmaceutical drug, Emma quit and headed across the country to Portland, OR. She found her way to Farma, the popular Portland dispensary that takes a more scientific approach to cannabis; rejecting the Indica/Sativa binary and instead focusing on chemo types to determine effect. She began her career at Farma as a bud-tender and was quickly promoted to General Manager after only a few months. She oversaw the operations of the shop and continued to uphold the pillars of esteemed customer service and cannabis science education during the rocky regulatory transition from OHA to OLCC governance.

Today on High On Healthy Audrey is joined by Ryan Treacy, the founder and chief executive officer of C4 Laboratories.

After 15 years in executive management for two national restaurant chains, he decided to pursue his passion for cannabis and start C4 Laboratories to empower people with knowledge that helps them make more informed decisions. Since then, C4 has not only become one of the largest, most trusted testing facilities in Arizona, but also been at the forefront of cannabis research, education, and legislation. Under Ryan’s guidance, C4 led two research collaborations with major academic institutions and was one of the first cannabis laboratories in the country to have their findings published in a major peer-reviewed publication. Ryan is also a member of the Association of Commercial Cannabis Labs (ACCL), and is actively involved in Arizona legislation to implement mandatory testing and industry standards for label claims on all cannabis products. They speak about how it’s all too common to see testing labs alter their results or strategically pick and choose the data they share. How C4's patients are their priority, so they believe honesty is the best policy about the testing. Also why they believe data is only useful if you can understand and use it.

Noonan, who grew up in an affluent family on Central Park West in Manhattan, began smuggling marijuana into the U.S. from Mexico after graduating from Arizona State University in the late ’60s.
