Last night I went back and listened to all the CEOLIVE.TV interviews with Michael Welch, Michelle Krebsbach, Jens Mielke, and John Blackington. Those, of course, were the interviews made prior to the start of the podcasts, and prior, during, and after the Amazon rollout.

Welch made made a passing reference to a "labeling problem" for two (2) of the products in the April 10 interview. In the May 23 interview he explained how they have products tested after they are packed to make sure the labels are accurate as to what is in the product (I am paraphrasing for brevity).

In the May 7 interview, Michelle Krebsbach says that all the products have "full plant CBD" in them. Interesting, as the Amazon products say "Full Plant Hemp Extract" and the Hempd.com products say "CBD Infused" or "Full Plant CBD". So in the interview she sort of combined the two descriptions. She did not make any reference to the product labeling as such, and certainly no explanation of wording to "get around" the Amazon policies.

So some of the assertions on both sides of the "debate" from yesterday seem to be true, and some seem to be false. And most important to me, based on what the execs actually said in the interviews. If someone finds an interview to the contrary, please post or PM me. I won't bite, I swear.

So as far as I am concerned, it is a draw.

I would encourage anyone that wants to take the time to go back and listen to those earlier podcasts, simply for the encouragement value in seeing how far we have come in such a short time.
