“You’ve got to love this. Not the instant gratification — the 10-year plan, the growth, the honesty, the work. That’s the part that matters.” - Mr. Wowzer

On this unique simulcast episode of Cannabis Enlightened, Dr. Leroy sits down with JC and Diannte “Mr. Wowzer” Grayson for a deep, unfiltered roundtable that blends podcast production, personal history, cultural wisdom, and honest reflection. What begins as a simple conversation about how their shows were created quickly opens into something far more meaningful.

The trio revisit their earliest moments together, including Diannte’s powerful first appearance on Cannabis Enlightened—a moment that unexpectedly turned emotional and ultimately built the trust that now anchors their friendship. From generational differences to the unwritten rules of professionalism, from growing up in San Diego to the expectations placed on Black men in creative industries, the episode explores the ways we learn, love, protect ourselves, and show up for each other.

Dr. Leroy shares how teaching shaped his approach to hosting, JC breaks down the producer’s perspective on honesty and excellence, and Diannte reflects on the journey from survival mode to purposeful storytelling. What emerges is a rare, intimate look at the craft behind two Olas Media shows—and the brotherhood that makes them possible.

If you’ve ever wanted to hear the heart behind Cannabis Enlightened, this is the episode.
