David Ortiz Stops By To Convince Ayla Brown To Try His Cannabis On Air

Big Papi stopped by Country 102.5 to talk about "Papi Cannabis." He tried ton convince Ayla why she should try it!

David Ortiz, aka “Big Papi,” surprised the Boston country music fans with an in-studio and on-air appearance on Country 102.5! The legendary Boston Red Sox slugger didn’t come to discuss baseball, though. He sat down with me to talk about his latest venture, a cannabis company aptly named “Papi Cannabis.”

Big Papi has always been known for his larger-than-life personality and charming charisma. And I tried to get him to convince people like myself and my mother to try his cannabis. After all, we are on the more conservative side of things. Consuming cannabis products is NOT something we do on the weekends if you know what I mean.

David made a very convincing argument on why we should all try his product though! He noted that his father was diagnosed with cancer and the gummies really helped him with the pain. You could see his face light up when he spoke about his father. It was beautiful to see a grown man talk about his dad like that.

Big Papi Loves Cannabis And Country Music!

In a surprising twist, Big Papi revealed his deep love for country music. He shared how his former Red Sox teammates always played country music inside the player’s locker room. And that was one of the reasons he loved country music. He then gave a huge shoutout to the listeners of Country 102.5, which we loved to hear.

I didn’t ask him who his favorite country artist was, but if we had to guess, who do we think it would be? Kenny Chesney? Carrie Underwood? Maybe Garth Brooks! Either way, I love to hear that he enjoys the sweet sounds of country music.

Massachusetts Becomes The First State With Cannabis Cirriculum For Driver's Ed

Boston.com reports that starting in January of 2023 Massachusetts drivers, under the age of 18, will be required to learn about the dangers of marijuana-impaired driving. With this move, Massachusetts becomes the first state with a cannabis cirriculum for driver’s ed students.

Ironically, recreational marijuana became legal in Massachusetts 6 years ago tomorrow.

  • The Blunt Truth

    You can’t make this up. But kudos for a clever marketing in coming up with the cirriculum name. AAA’s program for driver’s ed students is called,  “Shifting Gears: The Blunt Truth About Marijuana and Driving.” According to The Boston Globe, The RMV is working members of the Cannabis Control Commission. The two organizations will formally announce this new program at an event on Friday.  This program has been available for educators for some time.

  • The First Generation

    As the Registry of Motor Vehicles points out, this will be the first generation of driver’s ed students to get their licenses, following the legalization of recreational marijuana in Massachusetts. And according to AAA research, canabis impaired driving crashes are expected to increase

  • The Cirriculum

    Boston.com reports that the lessons in the new driver’s ed cirriculum will cover how TCH, which is the active chemical in marijuana, affects “cognition, vision, reaction time, and perception of time and distance behind the wheel.”

     

  • The Numbers

    The updated curriculum will be taught to roughly 52,000 new drivers each year in 700 Massachusetts driving school locations, according to NBC 10 Boston.
