on



On this episode of Let’s Be Blunt with Montel, we sit down with Adam Bierman, the co-founder and former CEO of MedMen—the first U.S. cannabis unicorn valued at over $2 billion during its peak. Adam’s bold vision and steadfast determination propelled the cannabis industry into the mainstream, reshaping how the world views and accesses cannabis.

Now, Adam is sharing the unfiltered story of his highs and lows in his upcoming book,
Weed Empire: How I Battled Gangsters, Investment Banks, and the Department of Justice to Build the Cannabis Industry in America, releasing April 2025. From reimagining cannabis retail as sleek Apple Store-like spaces to navigating legal challenges in the fight to normalize cannabis, Adam’s journey is packed with ambition, resilience, and valuable lessons.

Tune in as Montel dives into Adam’s experiences, including the sacrifices he made, the risks he took to bring cannabis to Wall Street, and how his monumental accomplishments continue to pave the way for the future of the industry. This is a must-listen for anyone chasing big dreams or curious about what it takes to lead in one of the most turbulent industries.

Stay inspired, stay informed, and always stay blunt.
