We welcome Allentown-based mobile DJ CJ Fuentes, owner of Party with Life, to the Podcast. CJ talks about growing up, getting his feet wet in an interesting party entertainment scene, and starting his own business in the Lehigh Valley.
Oh, yeah, and he was also on Jerry Springer. We get to that at the end, but you can watch the episode CJ was in below.
We welcome Victor Guadagnino Jr., Chief Business Development Officer at Keystone Canna Remedies to the podcast to talk medical marijuana, Pennsylvania laws, where he sees it heading, and what it’s all about.
Victor will also be a speaker at The Lehigh Valley’s First Medical Marijuana Conference on Wednesday, November 13th from 5:30-8:30 PM at Penn State Lehigh Valley (2809 Saucon Valley Road, Center Valley, PA. He and others will be discussing these topics in depth. RSVP!
Victor is the Founder and Chief Business Development Officer for Keystone Canna Remedies, Pennsylvania’s First Medical Marijuana Dispensary. Victor obtained his B.S. in Biology at Siena College and Masters in Medical Bioethics at New York University.
Victor’s education in Medical Bioethics makes him uniquely suited to address the policymaking and internal review challenges of the emerging medical marijuana industry to ensure the highest standard of care. Victor has worked closely with a team of content experts to learn MMJ chemical profiles, dosages and delivery systems with respect to various medical conditions.
Victor’s interest in plant-based medicinal therapies was was sparked while volunteering in the Peruvian rainforest in 2006 with Amazon Promise, an organization that brings healthcare to remote areas. Traveling with a botanist and chemist, he learned to identify plants of medicinal value and to educate locals on their use, as access to modern medicine was very limited. This experience ignited Victor’s passion for intertwining nature and clinical based medicine, which he hopes to more fully realize through the dispensing of medical marijuana.
Breanna Cropley is looking to open a cat cafe, called Cup Cats, in south Bethlehem. Her non-profit cafe would allow visitors to enjoy some coffee while also cuddling around with cats.
The really really super young Joel Shimer, on-air talent and producer at The Hawk joins us to talk being 21, how he got his job, growing up loving radio, and his sweet Nazareth apartment.
From The Hawk’s website: Joel first caught the radio addiction in middle school, when he started playing music on the closed circuit TV station before the school day started. While the other kids were watching Spongebob, he was watching “The History of Rock and Roll” over and over again, and learning the guitar solo to “Layla” after it was over.
He was brought onto the Hawk team at the young age of 17, working his first year in the business while still in high school. In the little free time that Joel has, he enjoys singing, playing guitar, DJing various events in the valley, and drinking hot tea… but don’t forget the lemon and extra sugar! You can also catch Joel blasting great classic rock and giving away the best prizes on the weekend.
