OG Strain: The 518’s True Connoisseur Bringing Cannabis Reviews and Comedy Gold to YouTube
By The Plug’s Pages Staff
Every cannabis community has its voices, but not every community has an OG Strain. The brainchild behind the YouTube channel Strain’s Strain Reviews (Talk Cannabis), OG Strain has quickly become one of the most respected — and funniest — figures in New York’s 518 cannabis scene.
And while yes, he happens to be the father of rising rap star Jake Strain (currently touring with Afroman), OG Strain has carved out his own lane in the 420 world. His channel isn’t just another “weed review” stop on YouTube — it’s a mix of brutally honest strain reviews, insightful dispensary spotlights, and now, a hilariously unique comedy series called “Mr. Water Bong and Ms. Dab Rig.”

When Bongs Cheat: The Soap Opera of the Dab World
If you’ve ever wondered what a daytime drama might look like in the world of glassware, OG Strain has your answer. His series, Mr. Water Bong and Ms. Dab Rig, is already three or four episodes deep — and the most recent installment, “The Affair,” might be the funniest yet.
Picture this: Mr. Water Bong walks in only to find Ms. Dab Rig in bed with another bubbler. Enter Ms. Dab Rig’s twin sister, the “random bubbler” who started the chaos, and the ultimate party guest — Big Dab Rig. The whole thing plays out like a stoner soap opera with clouds of smoke and punchlines that hit harder than a fat dab.
It’s “The Affair” of the bong world — and honestly, it might be one of the best reasons yet to subscribe to OG Strain’s channel.

Why the Community Trusts OG Strain
Comedy aside, what sets OG Strain apart is his reputation for honesty. He has openly refused to take money for endorsements, which means when he says a product is fire, it’s because it truly impressed him. And if it’s not up to par? He’ll tell the people straight up — no sugarcoating, no smoke screens.
That raw honesty has earned him love and trust from the 420 community and respect from major names in the industry. Over time, OG Strain has collaborated with dispensaries and brands including Tokalotapot Seeds, Upstate Canna, Electric City Cannabis Company, Stage One, Cannabis City, Grassroots, Tical, and Jaunty — and every one of them knows they’re getting the real deal when working with him.

OG Strain’s influence is undeniable. His work has been endorsed by icons and industry leaders like Afroman, Dope As Yola, Cheech Marin, DJ Leach, Yung Fate, and of course, his son Jake Strain. These co-signs prove that even beyond the 518, OG Strain is being noticed for what he brings to the culture: knowledge, humor, integrity, and love for the plant.
