We have the face of Puffco himself, Roger Volodarsky. It is an absolute pleasure to smoke and sesh with Roger. The night before he pulled up to The Comedy Store with his brother's, he absolutely loved the comics and Sacred ground. When I was handed the original Puffco from my friend Ryan of Focus Concentrates it changed the game for me, so being able to sesh and pick his brain was a real treat for JP and I. We talk about Comedy, The Comedy Store Drive In, Puffcon LA and getting too high in our old age. All Rounds Punch Extracts! thank you for all the love! Thank you to our Partners of the show! PUFFCO!

We started the episode a bit differently today, so hopefully you didn’t cringe too hard at my Jony Ive impersonation, but we wanted to set a particular framework for this episode. Today we’re talking to Roger Volodarsky, founder of Puffco, a company that creates the best cannabis concentrate vaporizers on the market. They pay particularly close attention to design, and basically it looks like if Apple made bongs. This attention to detail might seem ridiculous to the uninitiated, but as we tell Roger’s story you’ll begin to understand that these vaporizers change lives. Roger realizes that because it saved his own life from opiate addiction. There was a lot of iteration, heartbreak, and work that led Roger to evolve into the fully-fledged Steve Jobs of the vaporizers, however, before that metamorphosis could transpire, Roger would have to face a myriad of traumatic events.

Roger Volodarsky is founder and CEO of Puffco, an award-winning company that sees concentrates as the future of cannabis consumption. He joins Rena Sherbill to discuss scaling while failing, what it takes to be a successful and humane leader and the lessons of starting a business from nothing. We also cover chasing innovation, the state of the vaping industry, why Puffco focuses on concentrates and why they moved their business to California. Learn more about your ad choices.

This week, Puffco CEO Roger Volodarsky joins the show. We'll talk about the history of the company, the development of it's flagship Peak electronic rig, and how technology is helping to destigmatize dabbing. And of course, we'll find out what Roger is dabbing on these days, where he thinks the best concentrates are coming from, and what the future holds for Puffco.

Our special double episode with Mara Gordon and Roger Volodarsky on the medical and recreational benefits of dabbing.There’s no more controversial way of taking in cannabis than dabbing. Dabbing is the process by where a tiny, quinoa-size bit of cannabis oil is heated and inhaled. Instead of typical cannabis which averages about 25% THC, a dab can clock in from 70-90% THC. The effect can be mind stingingly powerful or a powerful remedy for relieving breakthrough pain.Aficionados claim dabs are the cleanest and most efficient way of consuming: No combustion of plant matter, no lung irritation. But there are, or were, downsides. One is the rig you once needed to smoke them--it required a blow torch to heat a titanium nail which you then inhaled in a long glass column. It looked like freebasing and the association with crack was unavoidable. Second, dabs are seriously powerful. As mentioned, the THC concentration is amazingly high (pun intended). Finally, the dose is difficult to control. The size difference between a quinoa and sesame seed isn’t that great, but it can make the difference between a powerful high and a knockout punch that can lay even experienced users flat.But those same powerful highs can also be used as powerful medicine, and in the first part of this episode, Mara Gordon, founder of Aunt Zelda’s, the finest oil maker in the US, explains how patients with serious conditions like chronic pain have been using them with great results. She’ll tell us how to look for great oil and recommends a portable dabber that allows for discreet dabbing on the go.Our second guest, Roger Volodarsky, founder of PuffCo, has created The Peak, a next generation instrument that looks good on any shelf. It is handsomely designed, well weighted so that it won’t tip, portable and equipped with hepatic feedback and temperature controls. Not only does it remove the visual stigma from dabbing, but it has inspired hundreds of glass artists to create their own designs to fit atop it. This makes it the first open source dab rig in existence. See some of remarkable designs here but listen to his thoughts and inspirations on the second half of this episode.

Roger Volodarsky joins us and discusses the nuances of the New York vs. California markets. Going back, Roger was an avid fan of the plant but his parents didn’t differentiate between cannabis and any other substance, with the exception of alcohol. For them emigrating from the old Soviet block alcohol was just fine, where as cannabis was certainly not. Roger’s use made them feel as though they failed as parents. Growing up in New York didn’t help as the state had no legal medical cannabis framework in the 90’s so the plant was essentially just as stigmatized as it was in "Refer Madness.” And it hasn’t necessarily gotten too much better as evidenced by our current medical program which is why Roger has moved on to Los Angeles where the cannabis culture is a bit richer.
