Wolfman Jack Said; Radio Misfits from FM 99 WNOR Norfolk, Virginia
Tommy and the Bull FM 99
“Tommy and the Bull is a popular morning radio show broadcast on FM99 in Virginia, specifically in Hampton Roads. The show, hosted by Tommy Griffiths and Rick Rumble, began in 1995 and has been the most popular morning radio show in Virginia since then.
Show Format
“The show features comedic banter between Tommy and Rumble, as well as their co-workers, and includes various radio bits, pranks, and interviews. They take calls from listeners, read emails and text messages, and introduce segments such as “Stupid News” (daily at 6:45 AM and 8:45 AM), which features real-life news stories that seem absurd or illogical.
Radio Bits and Characters
Tommy and Rumble have created numerous fictional personalities, often portrayed by the hosts themselves, including:
Alex & Enrique (an eccentric gay couple)
Skip Giblet (a self-help guru and motivational speaker)
Roy Forehead (someone with many issues)
Cliff Andrews (Assistant Public Service Director at FM99)
They also play bits created by other artists and conduct formal interviews with celebrities, politicians, authors, and ordinary citizens involved in news stories. Fake celebrity phone interviews are also a staple of the show.
History
The FM99 morning show originated in the 1980s as “Reeger & the Bull” with Ron Reeger and Henry Del Toro (aka “The Bull”). When Reeger left, Jimmy Ray Dunn took over, and the show became “Jimmy & the Bull” until Dunn’s departure in 1990. From 1990 to 1995, the show was called “Tommy & the Bull” with Tommy Griffiths and Del Toro.
Notable Guests
The show has featured various comedians, including Tommy Davidson, Jim Florentine, Ralphie May, Aries Spears, Harland Williams, John Witherspoon, and J. Medicine Hat (now deceased).
Availability
Tommy and the Bull FM99 airs weekdays from 5:30 AM to 10:00 AM (sometimes starting and ending a few minutes late) on FM99 in Virginia. You can also tune in online or listen to past episodes on-demand.“

WQLF SAYS; The WQLFPACK believes that Craig decided to merge with CV Sciences instead of going Public. He will own at least 10 percent of the CVSI ($1,000,000 in value at $.04/.045/.05 cents per share) stock and will increase it by another amount once Extract meets the maximum of $600,000 in shares Broken up in two tranches in a two year period. $300,000 each year. This acquisition/merger is amazing and WE can’t wait for the next PR Acquisition coming soon WE understand YQU Understand.

Extract Labs Hemp Sourcing
“Based on the provided search results, Extract Labs sources its hemp from American-grown hemp, specifically mentioning that they “start by sourcing quality American-grown hemp” and that their hemp products are “made in Boulder, CO” and “shipped worldwide from Lafayette, Colorado USA”. There is no mention of specific farms or suppliers, but it appears that Extract Labs prioritizes domestic hemp sourcing.
Additionally, the company’s commitment to transparency and quality control is emphasized, with claims of “keeping every step of production in-house” and “vertically integrated” operations. This suggests that Extract Labs may have a direct relationship with hemp farmers or processors, allowing for greater control over the quality and origin of their hemp.
It’s worth noting that Extract Labs’ focus on minor cannabinoids, such as CBG, CBT, and CBN, may require sourcing hemp with specific terpene profiles or cannabinoid concentrations. The company’s expertise in extraction and processing may enable them to work with a variety of hemp suppliers to meet their product requirements.
In summary, while the exact hemp suppliers are not disclosed, Extract Labs sources its hemp from American-grown hemp, prioritizing quality and control through its vertically integrated operations.“

WQLF SAYS: Before the Acquisition announcement, the WQLF was hoping there was a way for CV Sciences to get the hades out of WOKE California. It appears that the WQLF’s premonition may come to fruition. The Lease for the San Diego office space will be most likely vacated at the end of May 2025 according to the lease agreement that can be found in the SEC filings on page 12.
https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/1510964/000095017024127040/cvsi-20240930.htm
5. LEASES
In April 2022, the Company entered into a new lease agreement for its main office facility. The lease is for the Company's operations, warehouse, sales, marketing and back office functions. The facility is approximately 6,000 square feet and located in San Diego, California. The lease term is three years with a total lease obligation of approximately $0.4 million. The lease does not include an option to renew. Based on the present value of the lease payments for the remaining lease term, the Company recognized an operating lease asset of $0.3 million and lease liabilities for operating leases of $0.4 million, respectively, on May 1, 2022. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had an operating lease obligation and operating lease asset of $0.1 million related to the facility.
The Company's operating leases are included in "Right of use assets" on the Company's September 30, 2024 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, and represents the Company's right to use the underlying assets for the lease term. The Company's obligation to make lease payments is included in "Operating lease liability - current" and "Operating lease liability" on the Company's September 30, 2024 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company's total lease cost was $29,357 and $86,380, respectively. Total lease costs was mostly comprised of operating lease costs. Short-term lease costs related to short-term operating leases and variable lease costs were $35,657 and $59,429 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Because the rate implicit in the leases is not readily determinable, the Company uses the rate of interest that a lessee would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term in an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. Information related to the Company's operating lease assets and related lease liabilities were as follows:

One of the benefits from the Acquisition and the possibility of moving CV Sciences headquarters to Boulder Colorado is the HIGH TAXES and Ridiculous Regulations in California. Here is the difference of Corporate Taxes between California and Colorado.
Colorado vs California Corporate Tax
Based on the provided information, here’s a summary of the key differences between Colorado’s corporate tax and California’s corporate tax:
Tax Rate:
Colorado: Flat 4.55% assessed on Colorado net income (defined as federal taxable income with modifications)
California: Graduated tax rate, ranging from 8.84% to 13.3% based on net income (as of 2021)
Net Income Definition:
Colorado: Uses federal taxable income with modifications
California: Uses federal taxable income with modifications, but with some additional adjustments (e.g., net operating losses, tax credits)
Carryforward Period:
Colorado: 20-year carryforward period for net operating losses (as of 2021)
California: 3-year carryforward period for net operating losses (as of 2021)
Other Considerations:
Both states have a flat tax rate for corporations, but California’s rate is more complex due to its graduated structure.
Colorado’s 4.55% rate is relatively low compared to other states, while California’s rates vary widely depending on net income.
Colorado has a simpler tax code and fewer tax credits and deductions compared to California.
Rankings:
According to the 2024 State Business Tax Climate Index, Colorado ranks 27th, while California ranks 48th (out of 50 states).
In summary, Colorado’s corporate tax system is characterized by a flat 4.55% rate, a simpler code, and a longer carryforward period for net operating losses. California’s system, on the other hand, has a more complex graduated rate structure, with rates ranging from 8.84% to 13.3%. While both states have their own strengths and weaknesses, Colorado’s tax environment is generally considered more business-friendly and competitive compared to California’s“
It appears that Cv Science’s will be locating our Headquarters to Boulder, Colorado. In the acquisition agreement, the building of Extract Labs Inc. is owned by CEO Craig Henderson’s LLC company. The agreement states that he is to extend the lease for an additional three years. CV Sciences will be extracting at the facilities utilizing their Extraction equipment. We will also be extracting some of our products at Elevated Softgels located in Grand Junction, Colorado located 255 miles from Boulder Colorado. The hemp supplies currently utilized by Extract Labs and CV Sciences is grown in Colorado which in return will produce cost savings to CV Sciences and Extract Labs. With the combination of both concerns, buying in a larger bulk will also produce a higher cost savings. This is how Scalability works.
"We are thrilled that Extract Labs and its employees are joining CV Sciences as another milestone in our transition to a thriving health and wellness company. The acquisition synergies are expected to increase our revenue and customer base, allow us to leverage our key assets, optimize operations and processes, and drive long-term growth and shareholder value. Extract Labs is a stand-alone profitable business and our plan is to increase its existing revenue base and further leverage its existing capacity," said Joseph Dowling, Chief Executive Officer of CV Sciences. "In addition, we are planning to in-source the manufacturing of select +PlusCBD™ branded products providing an opportunity for meaningful cost savings. Extract Labs manufacturing capability will provide us with greater control over our supply chain and accelerate our new product development cycle."

Delta 8 Legality in Poland
“Based on the provided search results, here is a summary of the legal status of Delta 8 in Poland:
According to the Regulation of the Minister of Health of 17 August 2018 on the list of psychotropic substances, narcotic drugs and new psychoactive substances, hemp herb other than fibre, containing more than 0.20% of the sum of delta-9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and Tetrahydrocannabinoleic acid (delta-9-THC-carboxylic acid) is not authorised in Poland.
Delta 8 THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is a cannabinoid derived from the hemp plant, and its legal status in Poland is unclear.
Some online sources claim that Delta 8 products, including edibles, are available for purchase in Poland legally, citing the 2018 American Farm Bill as the basis for their legality. However, this claim is not supported by official Polish government sources or regulations.
There is no explicit mention of Delta 8 THC in the Act of 29 July 2005 on Counteracting Drug Addiction or the Regulation of the Minister of Health of 17 August 2018, which govern psychotropic substances in Poland.
In summary, based on the available information, it appears that Delta 8 THC is not explicitly legal or illegal in Poland. Its legal status is uncertain and may depend on the specific product and circumstances.
Recommendation: Due to the unclear legal status of Delta 8 THC in Poland, it is recommended to exercise caution and avoid purchasing or consuming Delta 8 products in Poland until further clarification or regulation is provided by the Polish government.“

Patentability
“It is generally possible to patent a cannabis-based product in Poland. The legislation concerning industrial property does not contain any specific restrictions in this respect. However, patents are generally not granted for inventions the exploitation of which would be contrary to public order or decency. Having said that, the exploitation of an invention is not regarded as contrary to public order only because it is prohibited by law.”

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On November 15, 2024, CV Sciences, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a definitive Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and among the Company, Extract Labs, Inc., a Colorado corporation (“Extract Labs”), Craig Henderson (“Henderson”), and Higher Love Wellness Company, LLC (“HLWC” and together with Henderson, the “Sellers”), pursuant to which the Company will purchase all of the outstanding shares of Extract Labs from the Sellers (the “Acquisition”). Extract Labs is a leading manufacturer and distributor of premium cannabinoid products including gummies, topicals, and tinctures. The Acquisition is anticipated to close during the first quarter of 2025. Closing of the transaction is subject to customary conditions.
In consideration for the Acquisition, at closing, the Company (i) will make a cash payment of $400,000 to the Sellers, less a $20,000 holdback (the “Holdback Amount”), less certain assumed indebtedness and less certain transaction expenses, subject to certain other adjustments provided for in the Purchase Agreement (the “Closing Payment”), and (ii) will issue to the Sellers a number of shares of the Company's common stock with an aggregate value equal to $1,000,000 less certain assumed indebtedness, based on the trailing 60 day volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of such common stock as of the trading day prior to the closing date (the “Closing Shares”) . The Closing Payment will be subject to adjustment, upward or downward, to the extent Extract Labs’ net working capital as of the closing is greater than or less than $880,000. Additionally, the Company shall be entitled to recover from the Sellers an amount equal to the unpaid balance of all accounts receivable that were included in the Extract Labs final working capital statement, to the extent they remain uncollected 90 days after the determination of the final working capital statement.
In addition to the consideration payable at closing, and as further consideration for the Acquisition, the Sellers shall be entitled to receive up to two additional earnout payments payable in shares of restricted common stock of the Company (the “Earnout Amount”). The Earnout Amounts shall be based on Extract Labs’ Net Revenue (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) generated during the 12-month period following the closing date (for the first calculation period) or 24-month period following the closing date (for the second calculation period) and will be calculated as follows:
•
If Extract Labs’ Net Revenue is at least $4,600,000 in the relevant calculation period, then the Earnout Amount for such period will be $300,000.
•
If Extract Labs’ Net Revenue is at least $4,300,000 but less than $4,600,000 in the relevant calculation period, then the Earnout Amount for such period will be $200,000.
•
If Extract Labs’ Net Revenue is at least $4,000,000 but less than $4,300,000 in the relevant calculation period, then the Earnout Amount for such period will be $100,000.
•
If Extract Labs’ Net Revenue is at least $3,500,000 but less than $4,000,000 in the relevant calculation period, then the Earnout Amount for such period will be $50,000.
•
If Extract Labs’ Net Revenue is less than $3,500,000 in the relevant calculation period, then the Earnout Amount for such period will be $0.
The shares issuable for each earnout payment, if any, shall be issued within 10 business days after the final determination of Extract Labs’ Net Revenue for each 12-month period following the closing date, as determined in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. The number of restricted shares of common stock of the Company issuable for each earnout payment, shall be determined based upon the thirty-day VWAP of the Company's common stock as of the 12-month anniversary of the closing date (for the first calculation period) or 24-month anniversary of the closing date (for the second calculation period).
The Sellers agreed that they will not, on any single trading day sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any shares of Company common stock, including the shares issuable at closing, in an aggregate amount exceeding the greater of (i) 15% of the of the Company’s common stock sold in the aggregate based on the greater of the current or proceeding trading day, and (ii) $3,000 in gross value.
Subject to certain limitations, the Sellers and the Company have agreed to indemnify each other for losses arising from certain breaches of the Purchase Agreement and certain other liabilities.
The Purchase Agreement contains customary termination rights for each of Extract Labs and the Company, including the right to terminate if the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement have not been completed by January
1
15, 2025. In the Purchase Agreement, Extract Labs and the Company have made customary representations and warranties and have agreed to customary covenants relating to the Acquisition. From the date of the Purchase Agreement until the closing, Extract Labs is required to conduct its business in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices and to comply with certain covenants regarding the operation of its business.
Additionally, for a period of up to three years following the closing date, Henderson shall be prohibited from engaging in certain competitive and/or solicitation activities within the United States, as more particularly set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
Extract Labs leases an approximately 28,450 square foot building (the “Building”) from 1399 Horizon LLC (“Horizon”), which is wholly-owned by Henderson. Extract Labs is the guarantor of approximately $4 million of indebtedness of Horizon that is secured by a deed of trust on the Building (the “Loan”). At the closing of the Acquisition, Extract Labs will enter into a new 3-year lease (with the option to extend for up to three years) with Horizon. Following the closing of the Acquisition, Henderson and Horizon will jointly and severally indemnify Extract Labs against liability under its guarantee of the Loan, and Henderson will pledge his membership interest in Horizon to Extract Labs as security for such indemnification obligations and Extract Labs’ guarantee of the Loan.
The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of such Purchase Agreement, a copy of which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s next periodic report.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
The information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Current Report”) regarding the issuance of the Closing Shares and the Earnout Amount is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.

"We are thrilled that Extract Labs and its employees are joining CV Sciences as another milestone in our transition to a thriving health and wellness company. The acquisition synergies are expected to increase our revenue and customer base, allow us to leverage our key assets, optimize operations and processes, and drive long-term growth and shareholder value. Extract Labs is a stand-alone profitable business and our plan is to increase its existing revenue base and further leverage its existing capacity," said Joseph Dowling, Chief Executive Officer of CV Sciences. "In addition, we are planning to in-source the manufacturing of select +PlusCBD™ branded products providing an opportunity for meaningful cost savings. Extract Labs manufacturing capability will provide us with greater control over our supply chain and accelerate our new product development cycle."
The total consideration for the acquisition of Extract Labs payable at closing, consists of (i) a cash payment of $400,000 (the "Closing Payment"), less the amount of certain holdbacks and adjustments, and (ii) the issuance of shares of CV Sciences' common stock valued at $1,000,000 based on the sixty day volume weighted average price ("VWAP") of CV Sciences' common stock.
In addition to the consideration payable at closing, and as further consideration for the acquisition, the Extract Labs sellers will be eligible to receive up to $600,000 of additional shares of CV Sciences' common stock if Extract Labs satisfies certain revenue targets during the two 12-month periods following the closing date. Such shares will be issued based on the thirty day VWAP of CV Sciences' common stock as of the end of each such 12-month period and will be calculated as follows:
If Extract Labs' Net Revenue is at least $4,600,000 in the relevant calculation period, then the Extract Labs Earnout Amount for such period will be $300,000. If Extract Labs' Net Revenue is at least $4,300,000 but less than $4,600,000 in the relevant calculation period, then the Extract Labs Earnout Amount for such period will be $200,000. If Extract Labs' Net Revenue is at least $4,000,000 but less than $4,300,000 in the relevant calculation period, then the Extract Labs Earnout Amount for such period will be $100,000. If Extract Labs' Net Revenue is at least $3,500,000 but less than $4,000,000 in the relevant calculation period, then the Extract Labs Earnout Amount for such period will be $50,000. If Extract Labs' Net Revenue is less than $3,500,000 in the relevant calculation period, then the Extract Labs Earnout Amount for such period will be $0.
The acquisition is expected to close during the first quarter of 2025. Closing of the transaction is subject to customary conditions precedent. On November 21, 2024, CV Sciences, Inc. filed a Current Report on Form 8-K which includes a description of the material terms of the transaction.

Top 5 CBD Companies (Updated 2022)
Connor Skelly
Written by Connor Skelly
“ Though the US CBD market has made significant progress since the Farm Bill passed, growth continues to be hindered by the lack of federal guidance regulating CBD as a dietary supplement and food additive. Even in the face of a challenging, competitive environment, the industry continues to expand with strong consumer spending and increasing retail distribution. The top 20 companies continue to have a large market share, though consolidation has slowed in 2022 with increasing economic concerns and continued brand launches. As of quarter 1 of 2022, the top 20 CBD companies make up over 18.4% of the total US CBD market.
Types of Top CBD Companies
The industry is now being strongly influenced by the following primary groups of competitors:
CBD-branded product companies that have been able to develop awareness and establish brand loyalty, especially by refining and improving their marketing strategies. Examples include Charlotte’s Web, Medterra, and CV Sciences.
Vertically integrated CBD companies that manufacture, brand, and sell their own CBD products through proprietary retail outlets and franchises uniquely dedicated to their own portfolios. These companies have built-in, dedicated sales representatives and advantages when it comes to marketing and messaging due to owning brick-and-mortar locations. Examples include Your CBD Store (SunMed) and CBD American Shaman.
Canadian Licensed Producers (LPs)with sizable cannabis infrastructure, connections, legitimacy, and investor dollars attained via public exchanges in Canada have entered the US market via acquisitions and line extensions. Examples include Canopy Growth Corporation (Martha Stewart CBD, whisl, Quatreau), The Valens Company (Green Roads), Village Farms (Balanced Health Botanicals), and Cronos Group (Happy Dance, Lord Jones).
Supplement brands with natural food store and mass retail chain connections, nutraceutical marketing experience, capital to invest, and established customer bases that are particularly prone to purchasing CBD-infused wellness products. Examples include Garden of Life and Irwin Naturals.

Disruptors that are more recent entrants to the CBD market but have been making headway in gaining market share through either optimized digital marketing and e-commerce or by focusing on growing retail distribution with innovative products. Examples include Sky Wellness, Try The CBD, and Panacea Life Sciences.
Pharmaceutical companies: GW Pharmaceuticals (acquired by Jazz Pharmaceuticals in 2021) brought Epidiolex into the US market at the end of 2018. Its revenues have grown dramatically since that time. Epidiolex is expected to continue seeing sizable growth and additional pharmaceutical companies are expected to start entering the space in the long term.
Consumer packaged goods (CPG) behemoths such as Molson Coors and Unilever have been circling the industry since prior to the legalization of industrial hemp cultivation and have made limited forays into the market prior to an official regulatory framework.”
