106 & Spark launched on April 10th of this year and is being executive produced by Grammy-nominated artist Problem — bringing a fresh new 20-minute cannabis and music talk show to life.
The show is exclusively available on the ALTRD.TV network and is expected to cover an array of different topics, including music discovery, pop culture, cannabis education, and popular Black culture, among much more.
The talk show will also feature prominent celebrity interviews and explore various cannabis and music culture themes. Moreover, the show will feature a recurring “Music Video of the Week” segment. Each episode will also include a weekly “Top 5” countdown series where the show’s hosts, Tammy Pettigrew and Sean Chris Spooner (aka “Spoon”), will countdown the best of cannabis culture, ranging from strains to products and brands.

Problem’s Involvement
With hip-hop icon and entrepreneur Problem as the executive producer, 106 & Spark has the potential to become a hit.
Jason “Problem” Martin has spent the majority of his long career producing and performing music alongside household names; some of which include Snoop Dogg, Wiz Khalifa, Young Thug, Herbie Hancock, Diddy, Robert Glasper, Terrace Martin, Dr. Dre, Busta Rhymes, Childish Gambino, Fabolous, as well as more.
For Problem, it appears that diving into this new venture was a positive change of pace:
“This show means everything to me! We had a lot of fun filming it on location in Studio City to make sure we’re really capturing the vibe. I just felt that viewers today want shorter film formats when it comes to the culture. I was inspired by the world around me in Los Angeles, and the explosion of legal cannabis in the United States. There’s no TV series to watch right now that’s upbeat and cool. Also, anyone in the business knows mainstream social platforms push down content related to cannabis, so we set out to fill that void with 106 & Spark at ALTRD.TV.”
106 & Spark Talk Show Hosts
As discussed, the show will be co-hosted by popular social media personalities Tammy Pettigrew and Sean Chris Spooner.
Tammy Pettigrew is “a popular TV and podcast host, educator, athlete, mom, business consultant, and advocate on a mission to free the cannabis plant.” Most significantly, she founded Cannabis Cutie Education in 2020, which delivers “accessible, engaging cannabis education to the masses via online learning.”
You can follow her on Instagram @thecannabiscutie. The show’s discourse is expected to advance Tammy’s personal and professional aspirations of debunking myths, demystifying plant science, and cultivating social change– while having some fun along the way!

Spoon is from Raleigh, North Carolina. He is a former division one basketball player whose world collided with Grammy-nominated rapper Problem. From there, the two forged a business partnership where Spoon could expand his love of music. As a result, Spoon is now a part-owner and president of the Coffee & Kush brand. He’s also currently working on a rap album with help from Problem.

High Expectations for 106 & Spark

When asked about the project, ALTRD.TV Chief Executive Officer Joshua Otten said, “Working with Problem and ensuring that ALTRD.TV will be the home of 106 & Spark has been a personal passion project of mine. Our audience demands authentic, culturally relevant, and groundbreaking content. Problem has produced something special and unique with Tammy and Spoon as the visionaries and hosts behind the show. We know 106 & Spark will become a hit and staple of the network, and are looking forward to many more seasons with them.”
