The episode is recorded live from MJBizCon in Las Vegas, Nevada.The conversation begins with Karson expressing admiration for entrepreneurs and their inspiring stories. She asks Jason to take the listeners back to the beginning of his career and share how he got started. Jason reveals that he had always been entrepreneurial, even in his teenage years, and had bounced ideas off his father, who was also an entrepreneur. He shares a story from his senior year of high school when he started a food delivery service for restaurants that didn't offer delivery. This experience, although challenging, set him up for the dynamic and unpredictable nature of the cannabis industry.Jason then discusses his path to becoming a pharmacist and how he discovered his talent for stock picking. He explains that he started investing in the stock market with $10,000 and quickly realized that he had a knack for it. In his first year as a pharmacist, he made over $400,000 in the stock market, which sparked his interest in pursuing a career in investing.After several successful years as a pharmacist and investor, Jason decided to start his own hedge fund. He shares the challenges and successes he experienced during this time, including a significant market crash in 2008 that led to a decrease in assets under management. However, he persevered and eventually built his fund back up.The conversation then shifts to Jason's entry into the cannabis industry. He explains that he was introduced to the industry through a banker in Canada who informed him about the legalization of medical cannabis. Intrigued by the potential growth of the industry, Jason made several trips to Canada to explore investment opportunities. He eventually invested in four cannabis companies which turned out to be highly successful investments.Inspired by his experiences in the cannabis industry, Jason decided to start his own cannabis company, TerrAscend. He shares how he convinced the company to take a $52 million private placement and co-invested with Canopy Growth. The stock price of TerrAscend skyrocketed, causing Jason to feel the pressure to deliver on the market's high expectations.To ensure the company's success, Jason made the strategic decision to pivot to the U.S. market, becoming one of the first Canadian LPs to do so. He explains that although they couldn't list on a U.S. exchange, he believed in the long-term potential of the U.S. cannabis market.The episode concludes with a teaser for part two, where Jason will discuss TerrAscend's entry into the U.S. market and his strategy moving forward.Overall, this episode provides listeners with an inside look into Jason Wild's entrepreneurial journey, his success in the stock market, and his transition into the cannabis industry.

This week we had a great conversation with our friend Jason Wild! We talked to him quite a bit about how he found a community of people living with IBD through Camp Oasis and how he's evolved from a counselor to a "Leader in Training" lead to a Camp Director. You can tell how much he loves camp and loves the community he's formed through it. We also talk to him about his use of medical cannabis to treat his UC and how he worked with his gastroenterologist to move to this option and to monitor his health. It was really interesting to hear a patient perspective on medical cannabis especially after our conversation about this with Dr. Jami A. Kinnucan a few weeks ago. Links: Our episode with Dr. Jami A.

Reacting to what fans have weighed in on regarding Brian Gutekunst's comments meeting with the media. A round of "Where's Wilde?" with plenty of options to choose from. Whoa Nelly! And a shakeup in NFL TV broadcast booths.
We're changing things up a little bit here at the High Rise and jumping into to Twitter Spaces for this episode. Our guest host Jason Wild will be joining the discussion with Cy and Emily. Jason is the Chairman of The Board over at TerrAscend. He has a long history in the cannabis space as well as a previous life in heath care and pharmaceuticals. He has a fascinating history with getting many business off the ground as well as staying true to the culture around cannabis the entire time.The discussion kicks off with some reflections on last year and some predictions for 2022. After that our hosts start talking about the midwest and east cost markets, Michigan and New Jersey in particular. As those markets are getting started, there are many competitors looking to make solid innovations and higher quality products that would likely edge out any non sophisticated players pretty quick. Buckle up for a high energy (yet still laid back data backed) conversation around new market expansion and the business of cannabis at large.As always please remember to subscribe and rate us wherever you download your podcasts.https://www.linkedin.com/in/jason-wild-b8a7304/https://terrascend.comhttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-08-19/n-j-pot-sales-to-start-within-180-days-years-after-murphy-vowhttps://www.newcannabisventures.com/terrascend-is-deepening-its-relationship-with-leading-cannabis-brand-cookies/

Jason Wild, who started out as a pharmacist, is President of JW Asset Management and Executive Chairman of US multi-state operator TerrAscend (TRSSF). He joins us to discuss starting his successful investing journey by reading Peter Lynch and by being disciplined about holding his winners and selling his losers relatively quickly.

Jason Wild is the founder and President of JWAM, an SEC-registered investment adviser with over $1.7 billion under management. Jason found investing during his last year of pharmacy school. Taking Peter Lynch seriously, he invested every other paycheck in pharmaceutical ideas he thought were undervalued. His theses were correct far more often than they weren't and he made himself almost a half million dollars in the market. After proving his competence, he started a fund with a mere $80,000. Today, that fund manages over $1.7Bn. Jason's initial strategy focused on specialty pharmaceuticals. His knowledge base enabled him to assess asset bases and M&A quickly (and correctly). After pitching a company on an M&A opportunity, and getting nothing in return, Jason decided to take matters into his own hands. He decided to purchase Arbor Pharmaceuticals for $2.5mm dollars and built the company via M&A. After 3 years, KKR bought a portion of Arbor; valuing the enterprise at $1.1Bn. Today, Jason is Chairman and Interim CEO of TerrAscend Corporation, a cannabis company with multi state operations in the US. His official Bio is as follows: "Jason Wild is the founder and President of JWAM, an SEC-registered investment adviser with over $1.7 billion under management. After starting his first fund in 1998 with only $80,000 AUM, Jason achieved early success by leveraging his background as a pharmacist to find undervalued specialty pharmaceutical companies and by managing the firm's investments for long-term growth. After building a strong track record as a stock picker, Jason expanded his investment universe and applied his experience and extensive healthcare network to private market opportunities. He has since established himself as a highly respected investor and sought-after partner for both public and private companies." This was an awesome conversation to have.

But that wasn’t enough to stop him from continuing on with the podcast, far from it. In fact, it became a part of the show. Jason, along with Bob Bedore and Michael Heycock, brought out the Kleenex and marched ... Read More
The week this was recorded was a tough one for the Wits. One of our own, Lauren Elyse Bradley, passed away suddenly and we were all in shock. But what do a bunch of comedians do in tough times? They find a way to laugh. The show before this podcast was amazing and everyone just let go of the pain ... Read More
Craziness abounds as the Quick Wits roll through a series of improvised scenes, including one about a design that you’ll have to see to believe. Check out the picture we’re talking about on the At Wits End Facebook page. Bob, Jourdan, Blake, Jon and Lorin also throw in a scene about the first proctologist and a scout group no one ... Read More
At Wits End somehow managed to create their own Horror Movie with “Ribbon Randy”. Not really sure how it all came to be, but we think that the world is finally ready for a Rhythmic Gymnast/Serial Killer. At least we hope the world is ready for it. This episode follows our “Totally Awesome 80’s Show” and features Bob, Jason, Blake, ... Read More
Following a “Wheel of Fun Battle Royale” show (all part of the Summer of Fun with Quick Wits), the Wits were in a strange mood and it showed. Starting with the worst Uber ride you can imagine, they went off into a Monster’s Anonymous meeting and finally into a nightmarish charity gig for performers. And Bob will tease you talking ... Read More
Episode 30 is a grab bag of craziness! Amazingly enough the first scene about creating a Horse Centipede was the tamest of the bunch. From there the cast wonders about the real power behind the Muppet Show and a rebranding of the KKK. It’s a fun show that took place after the Quick Wits “Musical Extravaganza Show”. Regulars Bob, Jason, ... Read More
This episode follows the “Freak Show” as part of Quick Wits “Summer of Fun” and it shows in the bizarre nature of this podcast. Bob, Jesse, Jon F., and Talitha work their way through three scenes based on things from the past show and audience suggestions. Somehow the acting career of Crocodile Dundee became an interest to the actor (maybe ... Read More
This episode takes place after a really fun show where the audience forced the Wits to play a new game called “the Magic School Bluff”. In it the actors had to recreate the children’s show, but with a topic you normally wouldn’t see. The result was Miss Frizzle taking them to see the miracle of life. Why are we telling ... Read More
This episode came on the heals of our “Macho Show” for Father’s Day and it’s really hard to explain how crazy this one got. But it is completely full of all the things you love about these shows. We have plenty of poop jokes, talking animals, and a forced Asian Accent out of Jason Wild. What more could you want?! ... Read More
In this episode Quick Wits opens up the show to other improvisors in Utah. Before this show QW presented a new shows called “Pop Up Arcade”. This was a playground for improv styles and was a blast to watch, and be in! Bob and Jason welcome friends from ToySoup (Troy Taylor and Andrew Jensen) and musical improvisors Shawn Zumbrunnen and ... Read More
After last weeks bizarre show the Wits wanted to show our fans that We Love Them! That brought about an even stranger show, but man does it have some funny moments. From the ultimate fighting machine, Sgt. Kill ’em All, to a look at the rudest restaurant manager in the world to a look at sperm donors, this show checks ... Read More
Another episode where Australia comes to our rescue! In this case Jason Wild’s flawless Aussie accent brings us Marsupial Mack, a hunter brought in to bring down a killer opossum. The Wits also work through the best pirated movie of all time and work with the A-Team (again) and YouTube to throw a great fundraiser. Jason is joined by Bob ... Read More
Jason Wild is back with the Wits in this podcast (which is why you see the “e” associated with this one) and he helps us weave our way through scenes about a couples dubious accent walls, a poor choice in tuxedos, and a battle of biker gangs you’ll have to hear to believe. It’s all in another crazy At Wits ... Read More
Episode takes some darkly funny turns as the Wits argue about puppies, and which is more trashy; Tilapia or Amy Schumer (pretty much a tie). Very funny stuff, especially the mis-use of various accents. Just be warned, the “E” is well deserved on this episode. Jason Wild hosts a great group of Jesse Marcus, Michael Haycock, Aleks Ignjatovic, and Scott Spencer. ... Read More
It’s the tenth episode of At Wits End and the craziness goes from an new way to pick a President to a young boys cereal commercial heroes turning on him. In the middle is remedial Junior College and a fear of Aha’s “Take On Me” video. Bob Bedore, Jason Wild, Blake Heywood, Jake Harenberg, and Jon Fairbanks take you through ... Read More
In the 8th episode the Quick Wits take on some both sweat and farts (but in a totally non-immature way, maybe). They also show how one brave Australian can save the entire world. Big ups to Jourdan Dixon for his Melodica opening. This is one of the more bizarre episodes – and that’s saying a lot! Enjoy! You can follow ... Read More
In our 9th episode the Wits break into song. Why? Why not?! Jourdan Dixon opens the show with a classical version of our opening song and sticks around to add music throughout. The result is one sketch that goes full blown musical about an all male staff at Victoria Secret. Bookending this we have a scene about the stone age ... Read More
Recorded in the dressing rooms of the Midvale Performing Arts Center, this episode was part of Jason, Bob, Jesse and Michael’s rehearsal for the big I4H competition. Something about this one made us all laugh a lot during and after the recording. Maybe it was Jesse’s bizarre doctor, or maybe it’s the crazy spelling bee at the end. No matter ... Read More
Another practice leading up to the competition, this episode features Jesse, Michael, Jason and Bob doing a scene about a Parkour Traffic Jam and ending with Michael’s nightmare. The fact that Jason acted out his talking toilet full throttle even though none of you will actually see it only shows how dedicated we are about these podcasts! It also reminds ... Read More
Episode 4 of At Wits End is one of the strangest ones so far! In fact, you’ll hear at the end that the podcasters weren’t even sure if you should hear this – But here it is! Jason Wild, Jesse Markus, Michael Haycock, and Bob Bedore take you on a journey from a film set to an Office Max in ... Read More
In the second installment of “At Wits End” Jason Wild tells a work story to Bob Bedore and Michael Haycock that transforms into something much, much bigger.

In the very first edition of “At Wits End” Bob Bedore, Jason Wild Jesse Markus, and Michael Haycock take some suggestions and comments from the audience (those that stuck around after a Quick Wits show) and then turn them into Improvised Comedy Scenes.

Happy Post-New Year! After a small holiday break (Andrew experimented with surgery and lortabs while Troy just experimented) we have recorded a new podcast. Bam! Smack! Slap!
