Welcome to episode 246 of the Hot Box podcast! Lab Rat Mat, Blake, and Dope Depot Lab Rat Operations Manager Kari are in the studio talking about what’s going on with The Dope Depot, where we’ve been, and where we’re going.

We got out of the lab and into the exchange. The Cannabis Exchange that is.
Word on the street is we might also be at the Leaf Bowl. It’s May 2nd 2026, so mark your calendars.
We put a lot of love into our extracts. You can see the fruits of our labors over at Dope Depot Reviews! If you live in Oregon, there’s a shop near you that carries our products.
SC Labs is coming to the lab for a chat about terpenes and testing. If all goes well we should have a podcast interview with SC Labs Executive VP Alec Dixon.
