Adults. Babies. Which one is taller? You may find out, and I don't know about that, with Jim Jefferies. I went too early, there's a lot of songs in the finish. Hello everyone, welcome to I Don't Know About That. I'm here with the whole crew, the whole crew. Jack's sitting up at the table. He's got something. He's got something. What have you got for us, Jack? Now I know about that maybe. However, this week's a little different because I'm titling it, I never understood that to begin with. Oh, good. Astrology, is it?

Bitcoin. Before we start, it's come to my attention that sometimes we're doing segments and then we just assume that everybody knows what the segment is and stuff. So like life hack gets last week, a lot of people comment they didn't know. What the hell is this? But is it that hard to follow? Yes, I think it is. I guess it is. So this is when we go back and listen to the original.

We revisit a show that a topic we, and we see if Jim learned anything. And today is, what is it? Bitcoin. Or cryptocurrency, right? Or cryptocurrency. I still own a Bitcoin. I sold half of my Bitcoin, and now I've got half a Bitcoin and some Dodge coin as well. Dodge.

I don't care. It's dodgy to me. I don't know what it is. To the moon. But what's his name? Elon Musk said today that you can buy a Tesla with Bitcoin. Whoa. But can you trade your Tesla in Musk said today that you can buy a Tesla with Bitcoin. Whoa. But can you trade your Tesla in for a Bitcoin?

Like, I don't know. I don't think so. I don't know if this episode people learned a lot on this one. No, because we didn't learn anything. I know less. And the lady who was there, very nice, and she knew a lot more than us, but no one knows anything about Bitcoin. No one knows anything.

It's a made-up currency. It's so mental because they go, oh, it's replacing money. But you can only buy it with money. So money is still the fucking number one. Yeah, that's true. I never really thought about that. It's instead of money, now it costs this many dollars. Like, fuck off.

I should be able to trade pebbles for Bitcoin if we're just making up fantasy cash. Well, the thing you can do, though, is if somebody does work for you, you can pay them in Bitcoin, and that's when it starts to actually... Who's ever done that? No, everyone keeps their Bitcoin

and watches it go up and down like a stock and then sells it. Yeah, that's all they do. There's new cryptocurrencies popping up. I know someone who's like, yeah, I put in two grand this morning, went up to eight, now it's down to four. It's going up.

This thing's crazy. Yeah, yeah. They're so volatile. They're insane. Yeah, because they in two grand this morning, went up to eight, now it's down to four. It's going up. This thing's crazy. Yeah. They're so volatile. They're insane. Yeah, because they're not real. They're made up. I'm trying to make as much money out of them as possible. And then I'm going to scurry away like fools.

But I keep on, I was getting out of Bitcoin. And when it reached like 40,000, I was like, oh, no, no, it won't get higher than this. And I got out for a day or two. And then I'm like, oh, get back in. Yeah, it went up to 60. That's like 54,000. So I had at my peak, I had like 92% of a Bitcoin that was worth 60 grand. And now I own half a Bitcoin, I'm like 30 grand and a half of Dodge coins.

I own like fucking thousands of Dodge coins. I bought like $35 worth of those. I'm like, I'm rich because it's like 500 Dogecoins. Yeah, you know, I've got a sack of Dogecoins. I come in and just throw them on the counter like, here, get me a round of drinks. Mark Cuban always like weighs in on those and says that they're worthless and he just bought some for his kids because it's fun and it's educational.

That's what he said, Dogecoins are educational. His kids will be billionaires. He can get the same education from Monopoly. Yeah, there you go. Just the first, I only have three questions here Kids will be billionaires. You can get the same education from Monopoly. Yeah. There you go. Just the first, I only have three questions here because it's all confusing. So just first question, what is cryptocurrency?

It's make-believe money that's on the internet that we've decided is worth some value. And it moves like the stock market, whether people want it or people don't want it all up and down okay so it sounds pretty good yeah yeah sounds right yeah jack doesn't have the answer i just want digital money it's it's money that you have to solve like a riddle to fucking get there's only a certain amount of them it takes up a load of energy even though it's make-believe for some some reason, it uses a lot of energy.

It uses a lot of fucking... A lot of equations to solve. That's the part that I still can't figure out. Yeah, I do not understand that part. Well, Bitcoin uses a lot of energy. There's other cryptocurrency that uses less energy, but it uses a lot. Bitcoin uses a lot. By the way, there's a clip, Louise, of, I don't know if you met,

of Jack trying to figure out cryptocurrency. Oh, the face that he was making? Yeah, we should definitely put that in here somewhere. There's a guy now selling farts. You heard about this? Oh, for NFTs, non-fungible tokens, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So he's got fart money.

Wait, excuse me, what? Wait, is it the non-fungible? Bless you. You should sell your sneezes. Yeah, that's $50 worth of sneezes. Is it for the non-fungible token thing, the NFTs? It's whatever. He made up his own money.

I think it's farts. I'm going to assume they're in jars. I assume they're not just floating around. They have to be tangible in jars. You've got to contain them. Or in a bag or something. They're in a Ziploc or something with a lid. Or you have to contain it somehow.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or he farted into a whoopee cushion. That would be a real good gag. He would sit in there and go, I didn't fart. Oh, it sure smells like you farted. That isopee cushion. That would be a real good gag. People would sit in there and go, I didn't fart. Oh, it sure smells like you farted. That is a good prank. Life hack. Fart in a whoopee cushion.

Fart in a whoopee cushion, yeah. So anyway, so this guy's selling farts, and the farts have gone up to $80 or something. New York City man sells fart for $85. It's NFT, which is like the new thing, non-fungible tokens, which is people are selling art, like digitized art and things like that. I've understood about NFT. It's like when you go to Disney and you buy Disney bucks or whatever.

You know, you go to different theme parks. So if Disney goes under all your investments done versus Bitcoin, no one owns it. Well, how many farts do you need to buy a car? Well, I could stock up on farts easy you need to buy a car? Well, I could I could stock up on farts easy. I could get a real currency going. Give me two days. The average person's

meant to fart 20 times a day, they reckon. It's arguably not better for the environment than cryptocurrency. I do way more farts than that. But his is one calendar year of recorded farts. That's what he's selling. Oh, wow. Oh, no, no, no, no. My fart business isn't ready to go today. You know, I still have to have some

seed money. Someone has to buy me some milk and, you know, something like that. A lot of cheese. But, yeah, that guy's put the effort in. Yeah, sure he's... He has them barreled, put in the cellar. I love an entrepreneurial spirit. But how does he keep the farts?

No, it's just recordings of his farts. Because the thing about... Oh, that's easy? No, it's just recordings of his farts. Oh, that's EOB! The thing about NFTs is that it's basically supposedly it's letting the artist, the musicians or the graphic artists, it's supposedly giving them more power and control of their art. That's like the whole

concept of it. But in the end, I think it's still going to be the same bullshit where it's like, oh, this is art and it's like something, you know, the same people are getting rich off art, and then people are not really making money. So this guy's supposed to, it's supposedly art. It's a one calendar year of recorded farts. We could all fart in a jar each, because like this, we could

take it to the next level and actually sell farts. We could all fart in a jar each, and we could put it out to the public. We could put them on eBay and see who gets the highest bids for their farts. Totally down. Now, I think Kelly will win. You're definitely going to win. I'm the more famous person, but no pervert wants my fart. But you have such a history

of issues with your butt that your farts would be like scientific. You'll know which one's my fart because there'll be blood splattered in the chart. Alright, let us know in the comments if you guys are interested in buying our farts. Please. Yes, in the comments if you guys are interested in buying our farts. Please.

Yes, in the comments. Yeah. Or ring 424. Continue the conversation. I just gave away the first three numbers of my phone number. You didn't have to admit that part. Someone's got to crack it out. Crack it now.

All right. All right. What's another question? What is the blockchain? I don't remember. Who cares? Who cares? Who cares? That's the real answer. There's wallets involved.

I looked it up on Investopedia for the best definition. You didn't get it from our podcast? No. I looked it up on Investopedia and they basically described blockchain the way Jim would probably describe blockchain. So Jim, try to describe blockchain

the way you would if you didn't know what it was. I already know what it was. It's a whole lot of really wide blokes working on a chain when they're released from prison, fixing the side of the road. That's your blockchain. That's pretty close to what they said. I thought it would just be like a big ball, like a block's worth of chains.

Yeah, it's pretty close to that. Blockchain is a specific type of database. It differs from a typical database in the way it stores information. pretty close to that. Blockchain is a specific type of database. It differs from a typical database in the way it stores information. Blockchains store data in blocks that are then chained together. Oh, I see what you were saying.

Use your word and the definition. As new data comes in, it's entered into a fresh block. And once the block is filled with data, it's chained onto the previous block, which makes the data chain together in a chronological order. So you can see all the spending things happen in a record. Now, different types of information can be stored in a blockchain.

Oh, my animals are kicking in. Next question. Yeah. It's decentralized. I'm feeling really high right now. Next question. When I released the farts in the jar, there won't be blockchain.

People would just be like, how many jars? How do you want them? How big is the jar? Fart jar chain. Also, I feel like it's recycling because I'd use like old jam jars and old mason jars and stuff like that. I might even use like a tin with like a sealable lid, like a maple syrup or a Milo tin. You guys don't like that. I might even use like, do you reckon like a tin with like a sealable lid, like a maple syrup or a Milo tin?

You guys don't eat this. Well, I think you should fart in the containers that made you fart. Like if you drank milk, you'd fart back into the milk bottle. No, but I use cartons. That's not going to hold a fart. Well, you can't use the cartons. Yeah, well, they saw a thing on Amazon that you can use to fart into a tube that you can put the tube into.

Someone will find out that I died and they'll go, what happened? He was making money next to a fire. Last question. What is cold storage? Storage where they keep the coins that are already made and they keep them cold, ready to go. In a blockchain. In a blockchain.

Cold storage is, so there's a wallet which you can have online but if you don't want hackers digital wallet where the bitcoins live um the bitcoins come out of the blockchain go into your wallet on a unicorn's back sent from god um and then if a cold storage is when you take it offline and put it somewhere where no one can access it so that could just be a hard drive or a thumb drive. And some people, it's called a paper wallet. You can print out all the information, all the keys. But the thing is, if you lose the hard drive,

you lose the paper, the Bitcoin's gone forever. Bad storage. Bad storage, yeah. All right. We learned a lot. I forget where I put my glasses all the time. I need them all the time. I don't know. I need them on the regular.

Do you think we're going to remember anything we just covered? Don't need to. Blockchain. Chain of blocks. That's true. There's no need to know what any of this is. Chain of blocks. I'll tell you what I do need to remember.

Next up. All right, please welcome our guests today, Mike Glazer and Mary Jane Gibson. G'day, hello. Thanks for being on the show. Thank you for having us. This is really rad. Cool. This is a good day.

Fantastic. Good. Now, I already know what the subject is, so we don't have to do the judging a book by color. I accidentally said it in Jim's presence, which I don't know how I've done it, that we're like almost 50 episodes in, and usually he guesses what you're here to talk about.

And then I was like, ah, well, and then he was like, yeah, I'll just eat some edibles. I couldn't get high today. It's about weed. Today in the episode, It's about marijuana. They know. Well, everybody knows that we title it. Yeah.

Yeah, okay, yeah. Well, for me, there's no title in front of me right now. Cannabis. But we did a thing on the Jim Jefferies show where all the writers got high, and we tried to write like a- You were too. Yeah, I got really high. Now, Kelly's high here.

It's the middle of the day on Wednesday. I've got to pick my kid up from school. I just couldn't. And I have no responsibilities. Jack? Jack's in the shadows. You can't see him. You're sober.

He's not in. I've got to take him to a tutor. It's a whole thing. Oh, yeah. But here, let me just introduce. I would let him guess and introduce. But Mike Glazer is a co-host of the podcast Weed and Grub. Vulture called Glazer and his co-host, Mary Jane Gibson,

true experts in comedy and cannabis. Glazer's 420 friendly live show, Glazed, is a Rolling Stone best bet. He was named a 40 under 40 rising cannabis star, and he starred in BuzzFeed's hit series, Hi Guys. Like,

hi, guys. Yeah, yeah, I get it. Like, hi, no, H-I-G-H. Yeah, yeah, I get it. Follow him on IG, at Glazer Boo Hoo Hoo. And Mary Jane Gibson, wrote and edited for High Times for over a decade. She was named one of the 15 most powerful women in the weed industry by Complex and was recently featured in Forbes.

She now writes for a number of outlets, including Rolling Stone and Playboy. Mary Jane is also an award-winning actor and playwright. Follow her on IG at ThisIsMaryJane. Damn. Underscore. At the end there, is that what it is? Okay,-winning actor and playwright. Follow her on IG at thisismaryjane. Damn. Underscore. At the end there, is that what it is? Okay, wow. They screwed you there at the end.

I got to say that I love edibles. I love them. I'm on them about four times a week now, and they stop me from drinking, and it's been a great- And you weren't before. I wasn't before. I got into edibles at 40 years of age. Like, it took a long time for me.

I used to think every time I took weed I got paranoid and all that type of stuff and now I'm just like, ah, whatever, and I just sit back and enjoy it. But I will say this, I know nothing about how it works. I don't know anything about how it works. I haven't looked up how it works. All I know is I like them in little bear shapes is my preference or chocolate-covered blueberries or coffee beans or whatever. You don't like smoking it.

I don't want to smoke anything. Before we start, though, Mike and Mary Jane, if you can just take a few minutes and just tell us how you came to be this, like involved in marijuana, cannabis. You can each take a turn. Okay, sure. Mary Jane, would you need to take a turn. Yeah. Okay. Sure. Mary Jane, would you like to go first? Uh, sure. I, um, my real name is Mary Jane. Um, when I moved to New York city and I met some of the staff of high times, they were like, that's perfect. Do you want a job? I said, yes. And,

uh, sort of went from there. I moved to California a few years ago and, uh, have found myself in the middle of the world's biggest marijuana market. And so I cover it for Rolling Stone and other outlets. And when I met Mike at a cannabis event, um, we hit it off and decided to have lunch and see, feel each other out in that very LA way. And we decided that we loved weed and food and we never wanted to stop talking about it. So we started weed and grub, which is our podcast. Oddly enough, I met Mike at a cannabis event too. So we met through Lisa Curry. Right. And, um, in February, I think of last year. So right before COVID Lisa brought us to this event at THC designs, grow house and dispensary or whatever. So we got a tour of the grow house and then they take us up to this event at THC Designs Grow House and Dispensary or whatever. So we got a

tour of the grow house and then they take us up to this like secret room where you have a seven course meal with weed pairings. And there's people walking around with joints on trays and just passing them out to everybody. So we're all sharing joints with a bunch of strangers. And then a month, month later, we're locked down for a year. So, maybe we started COVID. Maybe we didn't. I don't know. I think Mike and I were on a 420 stand-up show in a backyard at

USC. So, Mike, you're really into cannabis. I remember that show. Holy cow. I don't even know what the 420 means. I know none of this stuff. Well, we'll see. Yeah, we're going to find out. All right, go on. Let's go.

Mike, you can say a few things too about like, I mean, it seems everybody knows you, but how did this become your life? I mean, the short of it is when I was 14, I was swimming with my shirt on and I was just a mess of a kid and weed helped me feel better about myself. Wait a minute. You were swimming with your shirt on and that was the way you went. Maybe it was sunny out.

You didn't have sunscreen. I just wasn't a confident kid. What's wrong with just because you're a bit portly, you swam with your shirt on? Was that why? Yeah, like portly with four Ps. Just not feeling myself, not confident. And so you thought the way to stop being fat is I should start taking weed?

Genius move. Just eat more pizza. Okay, so what we're going to do is I'm going to ask Jim to tell us everything he thinks he knows about cannabis or marijuana, and I'm going to prod him along with some questions. And then at the end of that, the two of you can grade them on accuracy. Zero through 10, 10 being the best. Kelly's going to grade them on confidence. And then I'm going to grade them on et cetera.

We're going to tally all three scores. 21 through 30 dank nugs. I hate that term, but that's fine. 11 through 20 are schwag and zero through 10 stems and seeds. It's not good. That one said that you want the bud thing. I know that much. You don't know about it.

All right. So like what is cannabis? It's a plant that grows. Oh, yeah. And it grows like a weed, hence the name weed. And it has chemicals in it that make you high. And it's a natural thing. And they'll always tell you, oh, it's natural, man.

It's natural. It comes from the earth. Oh, fucking stoners. Right? I like how you just said you take weed all the time and you said stoners. I'll tell you one thing. I've never bought weed illegally. Well, I didn't, I didn't have the doc. I had a doctor's thing for a while that was like,

I walked into this fucking place where it was one of those guys like in a, in a, in a, a leaf outfit dancing at the front. Do you want to see the doctor? And I walked in and then the doctor, I was on a card table, one of those fine card tables, and they flip up the laptop and there was a fucking, there was a doctor who was sitting somewhere in his break in some office and he's playing on his phone and I thought, oh, God, I've got to lie here to get me a Wii card. And he goes, so you have any symptoms?

And I go, and I was going to go, in the morning I get headaches and then I blah, blah, blah. And I was about to go on and on and on. I had all these symptoms ready to go. And I went, in the morning I get headaches. And he went, okay, no problem. Just take your card to the front. That's exactly how it happened for me too.

I was like, this doesn't feel like a real thing. I rehearsed all day what I was going to say to him and that's exactly the same thing. Yeah, yeah. So I went off and I bought some and then I was off to the races him, and that's exactly the same thing. Yeah, yeah. So I went off and I bought some, and then I was off to the races. And then when it became legal, oh, fuck me, it's changed me life. It's for the better. Let's just try and answer these questions.

Yeah. So that was what is it used for? You kind of had some stuff in there. What is THC? Do you know what that stands for? What it does? I don't know. I don't know.

But I have five milligrams of it. I have 20 milligrams, and then I top up with five milligrams every hour. No idea what it even stands for? Who cares? It does the job. What about CBD? It's like if you ask me what alcohol stands for, I don't fucking know how it's made, whatever,

but I had a long relationship with that bastard as well. THC? No, CBD. What is CBD? CBD is the one that doesn't get you high where you can put it in like, I have like a balm that I put on after I play golf because I get a short, sore bit around my ribs. But it's the one what?

It gives you all the benefits of weed without the fun. Benefits without fun. Okay. What different ways can marijuana be you know taken you can eat it you can smoke it

yeah you can and you can smoke it and it can be in hash or it can be in full things or whatever apart from that I'm sure like

I remember back in the days with the ecstasy you could shove them up your ass and all that type of stuff you just said something else like right before this you can drink it nope that's not what you said

I drink it I can't you can't drink it No, that's not what you said. I drink it. I can't. You can't drink it. Yeah, yeah, there you go. You can't snort it. Forget it. You just said one of the answers. I didn't put it in my fucking list.

You said you have a cream. You have a cream. Oh, you can rub it in. You can rub it in. You can vape it. You can, any way you can get. I'm sure if you shoved a block of hash up your ass, you'd feel the effects.

Sure. It's always shove. Why can't I lightly place something up my ass? Why can't I use lubricant and slightly slip something in my ass? I'm always shoving things. Okay. What is Keef? Keef is a brand that I buy, I believe, believe of the weed and it has like a leaf above it

keith the brand oh um it's uh an actor on 24 yeah that's right um how long has marijuana been used medicinally uh a long long time i'm gonna say a thousand years has been used medicinally but whether whether the government said that they approved of it and they said it worked, that's only been like, where legalized medically has been like nine years in this country. So how many states is it legal in, like medically and recreationally? Do you know what the first state was to answer that? First was Colorado.

Then we've got California, Nevada, Hawaii. It's dec answer that. Okay, first was Colorado. Uh-huh. Then we've got California, Nevada, Hawaii. It's decriminalized. It's not legalized, but I traveled to Hawaii with we the other day. Well, how many is it legal in? How many is it legal in, just say medicinally and then recreationally? 12. 12 for both? Those are two different things?

Yes. Okay. Which state grows the most? California. They just said it. They said it. They said it in the interview. Ah, good one, all right. California. grows the most? California. They just said it. They said it. They said it in the intro. Good one, right?

California. Is it addictive? No, there is no addictive chemical in weed, although I fucking, I yearn for it. I'm proving a lie. Okay. It's like saying pizza, is pizza addictive? Yeah, but I fucking never stop eating this shit. Can you overdose?

No, you can't overdose some weed. Okay. So then how many deaths is marijuana responsible for yearly? Well, see, that's a tricky statistic because people, you shouldn't drive on it. You shouldn't use heavy machinery. So it could lead to accidents. There could be a parent who's high, who's not taking care of their child properly or something like that. But from the actual, the chemical in your body doing something, I'm going to say it's like zero. Okay. And then you mentioned 420. 420.

I know it's Hitler's birthday. Oh, yeah, that's what it is. Yeah, yeah. That's why I got her associated with weed. Someone said to me, like, it's Hitler's birthday. And I was like, I don't know. But 420, I don't know what it's got to do with. But everyone at 420 thinks it's really funny to light up or whatever.

And they do comedy shows at 420 or something. Oh, I forgot this. Like what are legitimate medical uses for marijuana? Ah, anything. Anything you want. Like because marijuana can give you paranoia, but on the doctor's chart it also said it cures it. So I don't fucking know.

It gives and takes the old weed. COVID. Cures COVID. It can definitely. Well, they believed it could. There was Canadian people that said that they did research and they said that with the COVID, the people who were taking more wade were getting less chance of getting COVID. I don't know if that was confirmed, but that was like a year ago.

That's why I doubled down on my wade usage this year. What about cancer? It can definitely be used for cancer and pain relief and stuff like that. Glycom is a big one where it's pressure behind the eyes, and that can be taken away with the weed. I think you're doing pretty good. I know that the weed. You're getting some answers.

I don't think you're doing great, but you're doing pretty good. The weed I know is used for people with muscular dystrophy, use a lot of it. I learned that when we were making Legit, and a few of the disabled people who were the extras were always of it. I learned that when we were making Legit and a few of the disabled people who were the extras were always smoking it. Okay, so let me ask you,

I'm going to ask you a few more questions and then we'll get to our guests. How many people on average are arrested for marijuana each year? It would be substantially less now because of the legalization,

but back in the day it was fucking loads of people got in trouble for weed. How about this? Let's just as a what state is responsible for the majority of marijuana arrests new york new york okay all right do you know what a terpene is um i do but i don't want to be culturally insensitive okay smart. It's a hat. Yeah. Do you know what the entourage effect is? Is that like passive smoking of weed or whatever? I don't know.

One time, this is, I'm not even high, I'm going off on these tangents. I was performing at Montreal and they do one of the galas and they always have quite a big name be the host of the gala. It was my first gala in Montreal. And the hosts were Cheech and Chong, right? Now, they hadn't been on stage for fucking ever. And so I just walked to the gig and I walked down, you know, Montreal, I go through the car park. The car park fucking stank.

It was just weed. The fog was so fucking heavy. And the problem was that the host is only on for about five minutes and then you've got to watch an hour of other comics who aren't talking about weed. And it was a lot of people who don't smoke weed on the regular who did it because, well, I'm seeing Cheech and Chong, right? See, when I got on about 30 minutes into the show,

I could start seeing audience members getting paranoid and people getting up and walking around. And so, yeah, don't do it. Cheech and Chong weren't even high. They weren't even high. Okay, two more questions and then we'll let our guest speak. What is the endocannabinoid system? That would be the nerve centers or the receptors in your brain that receive the THC.

Wrong. That's where OU1-Kanobe is from. Oh. And then here's a question we've asked you twice already on this show. We're going to ask you again. Who started the war on drugs? What president? Probably asked you twice.

Yeah, I know, I know, I know. It was Nixon. Wow, you finally did it. Yeah. Yeah, I know, I know, I know. It was Nixon. Wow, you finally did it. Yeah, yeah, I know. Third time's a charm. Thank you, Nixon. You learned something on there. Nixon did the one, guys.

Okay, Mike and Mary Jane, on a zero to ten, ten being the best, how did Jim do on his knowledge of cannabis? What do you think, Mike? I think Jim did great. At least an 8.7 a 7 we gotta get more high fucking experts on this show

I think you did pretty good how do you do on confidence? I'm giving him a 9 but I'm grading on a curve so it's dangerous technically a 5 like a good vibe curb Yeah

It's chill times That's 16 I'm going to give you one for et cetera Your swag All right Swag Yeah Okay

We asked Jim what cannabis is I mean he said it was a plant Grows like a weed Has chemicals And it makes you high But can you guys I couldn't really answer this question I don't know the Latin name for the plant

I didn't ask you the plant. The highest impetus. So if you were describing, if you said, if someone asked you what is cannabis or marijuana, what would you tell them? You nailed it. Cannabis is a plant. The Latin name is cannabis elicetiva. It contains chemical compounds known as cannabinoids

that are responsible for the effects that get you high and also all of the other effects that you discussed. And it is a weed. It grows as a weed. It's found in Afghanistan and India and Asia and it was imported to the Americas and now it grows in California. It's not a weed. They grow a lot of it in Australia, I know, but it's not indigenous to Australia?

I don't think so, but I'm not sure. But here it's not. I didn't even ever realize that. It was imported here. It's not indigenous to the United States. That's what you're saying. I believe that it originated in the Hindu Kush and Afghanistan. I don't like calling plants weeds, right?

Weeds, just because a plant overachieves, we have to fucking cut it out. Oh, you're growing too easily without my help. Get it out of the ground. And then a flower, it's a Mormon, and you water it. And the flower comes up. I like you because you are hard work. A flower, a rose, is a fucking high-maintenance girlfriend. A rose, okay.

Yeah. Where a fucking weed is that chick that just comes over whenever you want. Stop fucking putting down weeds because they're doers. Yeah, I can. Some flowers are weeds, though, too. I know, but if anything grows too quickly we rip it out we like difficult we like difficult in our yards we had to fly this in yeah yeah and then they go this may grow here it might not grow but we're gonna give it a go oh it's coming in to blossom like that

and then a weed we got this stupid thing it's just fucking achieving so what what, what is THC and what, what does it do? So Jim didn't know that one. Yeah. No, I mean, THC, that's the jam. That's what gives you the psychoactive active effects that get you high. It's all about the THC. It's one of the, uh, it's like that and CBD make up 40% of this plant and I can't pronounce THC. It's tetrahydrocannabinol and it was uh first identified by an israeli uh scientist named dr rafael mishulam in the 60s and it's uh yeah it's the chemical compound that is responsible for that euphoric effect the high um and cbd is the other chemical compound that most people know about from cannabis. And it's not psychoactive

in the same sense that THC is, but it does actually have effects on mood and also your joints and your muscles, and it can do all sorts of wonderful things for your body and working in tandem. The two are, uh, you know, in balance, they, they can really make everything a better day. Yeah. Well, THC should just stand for like that high is chill. That would work just as well. I feel like Mary Jane has the more accurate answers. Mike's like, okay, you do do it. I'm going to go swim in a shirt. One of us has caught a French fry on stage in his mouth. And that my best bit and the other one writes for rolling stone

um and with don't you need cbd in order for thc to be psychoactive isn't there doesn't have to be some sort of balance or no thc and cbd come together and make me high you do not necessarily need CBD to have THC. There are distillates that are made where it's just the completely isolated molecules. So there are products that are made with pure THC and there are products that are isolated CBD. But in tandem working together,

they actually bind to different receptors in the brain. So it sort of balances out your high. I got some gummies one time that were like all CBD. It was supposed to be just CBD so I could chill. And I felt like I was still kind of getting high, not really high, but a little bit. And I was like, cause they always tell you, I won't get high at all. But I felt a little bit buzzed, I would say. Yeah, for sure. It can have a mood altering effect, definitely. And it depends on where it's sourced from there's cbd that can be sourced from hemp which is uh technically under the 2018 farm bill hemp is cannabis but it just has less than 0.3 thc so that's actually legal

under the 2018 farm bill but cannabis which has more than that well you know marijuana what's referred to as marijuana under the Schedule 1 drug law, is illegal because it has more than 0.3 THC. If you ate like a hemp handbag, like you ate it, would you feel any effect? You wouldn't feel good. You'd probably have a stomachache. You'd need a good lot of fiber. You'd have some good shits. It'd clean you out, it would.

I forgot to ask you this, Jim. What are some strains? What are strains? I find the work home life relationship to be a strain. Yeah. Just modern day pressures. Yeah.

There's two, I guess, main... There's sativia. And there's gonorrhea. There is gonorrhea. That's sativia. Yeah. And there's gonorrhea. There is gonorrhea. That's a strain. That's what the doctor said. Indica. Sativia and the other one.

Indica. Indica. Indica. Yeah, because the indica, sativia makes you can still get up and do things. Indica stands for in the couch. In the couch, yeah. In the couch. And that makes you just sit back and go yeah, because the Indica, so TVA makes you, you can still get up and do things. Indica stands for in the couch. In the couch, yeah. In the couch, and that makes you just sit back and go, I like the Indica.

Yeah, okay. And I like the one that makes you sleep as well. I get like gummies now that are 5%, 5 milligrams of that, 5 milligrams of that, all three. It's got 15 milligrams all going to do everything. I'm upstairs, I'm building things, I fall asleep. I wake back up. Building things. What are you building?

My self-esteem. My child's Lego sets. Is that? This is a question I have. So when you go to these dispensaries. Okay, so there's Indica and Sativa. Was he right on that? Obviously, I think he was.

I'm not. Kind of, right? 6.5. Down to 6.5. of right 6.5 down to 6.5 yeah okay so down to a 6.5 because like every these days everything's pretty much a hybrid at this point so right so the land race strains which are where they originate from there's the indica and sativa are sort of the original versions but now everything has been hybridized so any strain that you're getting is going to be indica or sativa dominant but mostly everything's a hybrid so everyone when they was it comes from the earth man and then we get into a lab and we hybrid it together and we make some fucking shit happen yeah um yeah we

monsanto everything we can't help it i mean they've been breeding all sorts of hybrids you know it started in the 60s really in the em the Emerald Triangle in Humboldt County. And then it moved over to Amsterdam where they made all of the sort of seed magic happen in the 80s and 90s. And then it came back to California. And, you know, there are thousands of strains now that have, you know, you can trace roots back all the way back to the original Indica and Sativa. But everything's blend at this point. You just remind me of a joke I used to have. It's from the earth. I used to do that about fuck that.

I did a gig at like 420 thing. And it was like everyone to have. It's from the earth. I used to do that about fuck. Cause I did a good gig at like four 20 thing. And it was like, everyone's like, it's from the earth. And I was like, everything's from the earth. Like we didn't get a shipment in from Mars and you're not going to start smoking lava.

Like that'd be better. I don't remember how the rest of the joke went. Check my specials. Um, what were you saying, Jim? Okay, great.

Uh, what, what are different ways marijuana can be ingested maybe Jim got this eat smoke hash up your ass you can drink it cream vape

shove a block of hash up your ass again alright that's twice no I just put hash oh yeah I just assumed it was up your ass is there anything we missed? I don't think there's any other way

to get anything into your body I think just I mean it is my favorite way to put put Molly in my body is definitely up my ass. So I think he nailed that. Snort it. You didn't say snort. I don't know if you can snort weed. No, I said, yeah, I don't think you can snort.

I don't think you can intravenously have weed. You probably can, but what's the point? Right. You can. There are products that cross the blood brain barrier more quickly, like sublinguals and tinctures and that sort of thing. Drop a little on your tongue, a little sublingual. Yeah, my mom used to do that. It was like a little tincture. Was that to help you go to sleep? She did it to herself. No, no, yeah, yeah.

When I was a kid, yeah. Yeah, whenever I had a cold. of cold. When I was very little, I ate a pot brownie. I want to say I was given it by a woman that thought it would be funny at a party. And I might have been eight. That's really fucked up. And my mom found out

she was basically going to murder this woman. But at that point, she couldn't find me anywhere around. And we just so happened to be at this barbecue in a neighborhood where one of her ex-boyfriends lived. I remember that. I was on my bike. I went to his house.

She came to his house, saw my bike in the front yard and came in. I was just eating cereal out of a bowl. And then her ex-boyfriend was like, he's been doing this for 10 minutes. He's just eating cereal. And the mom was like, all right, let's go. And I was I guess I was really fucked up. And then my mom put the back of the truck, the bike in the back of her then boyfriend's truck. And I was just like, Hey, one second before we leave, I ran out of the truck. And then I came back five minutes later with a plate of food from the barbecue for the ride home.

And then she said she got home and she was just like, you know, she was like freaking out, but also like, what would I want to do if I was really high? And she goes, Hey, let's just go to the park. And we just laid in the grass and stared at clouds for like two hours. And then all of a sudden I rolled over and I said, let's get ice cream. And my mom was like, hey, let's just go to the park. And we just laid in the grass and stared at clouds for like two hours. And then all of a sudden I rolled over and I said, let's get ice cream. And my mom was like, I don't have any money. And she said, I produced $10 from somewhere. I was already in a life of crime. I was like, she goes, okay.

And we got ice cream. And that's how, that's why I am how I am today. Your mom's the best. Yeah. All right. I love the idea, Forrest, of like one of the side effects of getting really high is you need driving ribs. Yeah. All right. I love the idea, Forrest, of like one of the side effects of getting really high is you need driving ribs. Yeah, exactly. I was young, but I knew what I was doing. I know the question's coming up about how many people die and all that type of stuff.

Because I don't know if you guys are the wrong people to ask this question. Is there any downside to weed? to ask this question. Is there any downside to weed? I mean, I think it's a valid question to be serious about it because it is a drug that does have, you know, effects that can not always work for everyone. So I would say that a downside could be that you would have an uncomfortable experience if you over consume, but that's pretty much, you know, a longer nap than you anticipated would be the downside. And maybe young, if you're young. I believe if you're young, it's not good. Cause I remember a couple of guys I went to school with, they took too much weed and they were the guys that sort of ended up with wearing the hoodies and just rocking back and forth a bit.

And they, they seem to be affected by it before because, you know, look, I'm an advocate for taking weed. Um, but I don't think i'd let my son do it before he's 20 i don't think no i can agree you know what i mean i just think that his brain's not fully developed and i think that you can can it cause psychosis can it lead to schizophrenia or anything like that well this is the reason why we need to federally federally legalize it is so that we can get some more clinical data on it because there really hasn't been that much research done on it so it's known to have links to things like uh you know psychosis in certain cases but it really hasn't been studied enough to have a final answer so we need to legalize it in order to get more research i find it it is hurting my memory right but maybe

that's just coinciding with me getting older it could just be the same fucking thing you're getting around the age when your vision starts to go your memory and my memory is not quite what it was i used to have a fantastic memory i never had to write down a joke or anything like that and when i say fantastic memory you only remember what you remember i don't i don't know what i've forgotten that's a good way to look at it. My memory is great. I remember exactly. My memory is fantastic.

I've got all this information up here. What about that thing you did the other day? I think my memory is great, but I couldn't tell you what I had for lunch last week. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like everyone always goes like a blackout drunk, and I've been a blackout drunk, but I'm definitely a blackout sober. I can't fucking remember a week ago what was going on.

You probably have a lot of thoughts going through your head most of the day, so your body figures out a way to prioritize the things that you should be remembering. Yeah, they push things in, they push things out. But I think like I'm a computer where they keep on taking storage away from me. They're just like, you're a new advanced one. You know more things, but you can hold less. My hard drive's dog shit.

You haven't done the software updates yet. Spring is just around the corner, and that means it's time to get the lawn on track. Oh, I know, I know.

There's a spot in my lawn from when I used to urinate in the back garden

that I used to go out, and I thought for some reason that my urine would help make plants grow, but it turns out it kills everything. Kills everything. It's weird. Waste. Hey, Kelly, have you done a lawn analysis? Yeah, so I actually did it.

I'm gifting this to my brother for his house. So I did the, you just plug in your address and then it does like a lawn analysis, tells you the products that you'll need, and then it sends it to your house.

Actor on 24, Jim said. I don't think that's right. Keef or Sutherland. His middle name's Aaron, and that's why it's Keefer. And Sutherland, that's why. Again, I don't think that's what we're talking about. Well, we'll find out. Yeah, no, Jim's absolutely right.

That's why you got a seven. So keef is the, on the cannabis flower, on the buds there, and on the whole plant, but sort of collected mostly on the buds are these resin-filled heads called trichomes. And keef is those trichomes shaken from the cannabis flower and plant. So in the old school way of making hash in Morocco, they actually sieve the flower through these very fine screens. And then the powder that falls through is the keef and that's pressed into hash. Very potent, right? It's very potent. So when you grind up your weed and your grinder and you get that sort of fine dusting at the bottom, that's keef. And you can save that and then roll your joints in it. And it adds that beautiful.

Yeah. The first time I had a keef rolled joint, I didn't know about that at all. So I smoked it and I was like fully in space, not knowing what was going on. But it was a great day. How long has marijuana been used medicinally? Jim said a thousand years. Legalized medically, nine years in this country. I don't know.

Do we know how long it's been used medicinally? Do you guys know? Does anyone know? Thousands. Thousands. The oldest known use that's been found by archaeologists was, I think, over 2,500 years ago in western China. But, yeah, since the beginning of recorded time. How do they know? Do they find

like a skeleton with like just a little joint in its mouth or something like that? There was just a hieroglyphic that said, whoa. My eyes hurt. The Chinese go with dreadlocks. Okay, that makes sense. And then in this country, has it been only nine years medically or

it feels like that well no it must be more because i remember that it's been since i lived here so 11 12 13 years maybe so california passed the first medical law in the u.s in um 1996 that was prop 215 that was the first medical use use law in any state. And then Colorado, you were right. Colorado and Washington were the first states to legalize for adult use. Oh, yeah. Okay. I was Washington at the same time. I remember now. And now it's like, how many states? It's like, Jim said 12, but I feel like it's even more. Triple it. It's, well, there's 36 states have some form of cannabis law on the books,

and 15 now have legalized it for adult use. In the most recent election, there were four more that added adult use laws to their state laws, which is fantastic. Are there all the states that will be coming on tour too? The last tour. Even Florida legalized it medically, and Florida has always lasted or they finally weren't this time. Yeah, it's amazing.

There's one in three Americans now live in a state with adult use. I can't believe that America's at the forefront of this. I know there's Holland and all that sort of stuff, but really doing it on a large scale because it's so repressed with the guns and the this and that no abortions and that and this and the other and always big religious groups australia's not a very religious country at all and they still won't do it they're like no no we're alcoholics you know i mean i don't know for sure but my opinion would be is like everybody no matter

what your political or religious leaning or whatever has their family has been touched by cancer at some point yeah and i feel like even when it was illegal, like someone was like, Hey, here, try this. And then it'll help with your appetite and pain and things like that. And I feel like things like that happened over time where eventually it was like, you couldn't ignore it anymore. And they were like, yeah, this works, you know, like this. Yeah. I don't know. I think you're so right. And I think, you know, something that gets glossed over by the storytelling of the mainstream media is that it was really California legalized cannabis for medical use in response to the AIDS crisis because of gay activists who pushed for cannabis as a, you know, for use in the community for people who are suffering from AIDS and HIV. So, you know, that crisis in the 80s was really what tipped weed into medical use.

What state grows the most marijuana? Jim said California. Is that correct? Correct. Nailed it. Makes sense. And then is it addictive? He says nobody yearns for it.

I do yearn for it. It can be habit forming, I think. People can learn to rely on it just like you would rely on anything else, like your coffee in the morning, but it is not addictive. Like giving handjobs in alleyways. Like, I don't to rely on it just like you would rely on anything else, like your coffee in the morning. But it is not addictive. Like giving handjobs in alleyways. Like, I don't have to do it. Exactly.

Why an alley? Why would you do it in an alley? Because of the danger. Oh, okay. And I give them away. I don't charge or anything. I'm very good. Oh, that's nice.

It's a golden time. Can you overdose? He says no. And then, yeah, we talked about how many deaths a year is marijuana responsible for it. So you can't. Did we answer this already? Am I high? No.

Okay. No. You can't overdose from it, right? I've always heard that. Correct. No. I mean, you could take a great nap and want to leave a party immediately. And I think that's about as bad as it gets.

Sounds like some personal experience you've had. My problem with it is because I don't want to drink anymore. And so I just want to take weed. I find it very hard to be sociable on weed. How do you do that? How do you guys do that? Do you just overcome it? One of my favorite things about moving to California

and having access to so many legal products was being able to dial my experience in and find out exactly what works instead of taking that sort of like random edible at a party that someone hands you. Really being able to go to a dispensary and say, you know, this is how I want to feel. This is what I'm looking for. I want to sleep or I want to be active or productive. And like we just reviewed Seth Rogen's weed. He smokes weed all day long and he wanted to release a weed that was super productive and euphoric for him. And we smoked it and it's absolutely incredible. It works so perfectly.

Mike, I watched him clean his entire apartment. Oh, I need that. You didn't do anything. So it wasn't that productive. You just watched him. No. I sat on the beanbag. Which is the only thing that needed

cleaning. Seth, he was on the Jim Jefferies show. He's our second weatherman. He must have been high because he did it just by, I wrote to him on Twitter and he said, okay. One of the most powerful men in Hollywood. He started following me so I thought, I'll abuse

this friendship. And you got him to wear a bolo. I got him to wear a bolo. And a cowboy hat. And a cowboy hat. He didn't even check the script. He just showed up and went, okay. And they just fucking did it, man.

The guy's a fucking hero. He's great, yeah. Do you still talk to him? I think I wrote to him or text him after I saw the pickle movie because I really enjoyed it. The pickle movie was like I watched that with my son and the after I saw the pickle movie. Because I really enjoyed it. The pickle movie was like, I watched that with my son and the whole family enjoyed the pickle movie. Have you seen the pickle film? It's on HBO Max.

It's a winner. Yeah, I started watching it, but I fell asleep. American Pickle. American Pickle. American Pickle. It's a winner. Oh, legitimate medical uses. This is pretty good.

COVID, cancer, pain relief, glaucoma, muscular dystrophy. I think it's like almost everything. Cerebral palsy. Anything that has spasms of joints or pain or anything like that, weed helps out. Is there anything weed can't do medically? These are the right people to ask. I don't think so, actually.

Truly, I don't think so. It's pretty magical. So it does open heart surgery, does it? Broke a bone. I broke my arm. Smoked his joints healed. Pretty amazing. I mean, they've done, you know, some significant research into how it affects tumors in mice,

and it has been shown to actually shrink tumors. So there are uses for combating cancer with it. Obviously, you know, it makes your appetite increase. So if you're suffering from- That's just what I need. That's been the problem. Yeah, yeah, no, I get fat on the weed. So I don't give a fuck when I'm high.

I'm like, I'm going to eat this thing. I never feel full. I never feel full. I was getting high the other day and my wife had gone to bed early because she had an audition in the morning. And so I was downstairs and I got high. And I've got a TV job coming up that I can't say too much about. I can't really say what it is.

Anyway, so I go downstairs last night and I was getting super high by myself and then the Postmates, I said to the Postmates guy, I ordered Shake Shack, right? I said, drop it off at the door. Don't ring the bell. Like I was very fucking exact about this, right? And then the guy rang the bell. Here's your Shake Shack like that, right?

And then my wife just yells from the bedroom. She goes, you got to be on TV soon. Don't blame me when you say you're too fat. I'm like, oh, you've ruined it. Well, she's trying. You just want to shame me alone, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. When you live alone, no one cares.

It's amazing to be married and to have a person who cares about your health. I've never had that, when someone cares about my health. Do we know which state is responsible for the majority of marijuana arrests or the most arrests? Is that a fact? Is that you guys? It's gotta be New York. Yeah.

I think New York is accurate. The stop and frisk laws in New York are responsible for putting thousands of people behind bars. Yeah. Now I went to school at Ithaca college in Ithaca, New York and Tompkins County. And I remember that, that at the time when I was there, I don't know if it's still there. There was a lot of marijuana grown in Tompkins County to the point where it was like one of these counties that like if you went to New York City and said the marijuana is from Tompkins County, it was considered really good. Is that do we even know if that's still a thing? I don't know.

Does anyone know? I don't know. I know you don't know. But have you ever heard of that? Tompkins County? No. Just the thing we told people to make more money. You're like, Tompkins County.

When I was in New York and the High Times crew were covering grows, which were all illegal, they would be often blindfolded and put in the trunk of a car and driven to out of town grows. So perhaps they were going to Tompkins County at the time. There's also a lot of hydroponic grows in the city. Yeah. Hidden in laundromats and stuff. Well, this has grown.

I saw a lot of the stuff that was growing. I was, I, I sold marijuana in college. I'm coming out and saying it now. I said in about 55 podcasts already, but, and then, so these guys would like same thing. We'd meet them in the middle of nowhere. And we would, sometimes it would like. The code would just beat the bear in the forest.

But they, but what's funny to me was we would just name it ourselves the strains like you know you go to the store and they're like you know pink lemonade

or whatever and like people would always tell you that they'd heard of it before and me and my friend would literally make it up on the ride home from Miami

oh so it was like lie witness news before it was lie witness news northern light something or other no well one time there was a dog ran in front of our car

and it got clipped by our car. We pulled over. It was limping back to the house and we were knocking on the front door. And this lady, we were like, I think your dog got hit by a car. And then I don't know what was going on with her because she goes, he's fine. The dog's fine. I don't know what was going on in the house. She was like freaking out about something else.

But then the dog ended up being fine going in the house. And so when we got that marijuana, we called it collie leg and people were like, oh yeah, I've heard about this. It's a really strong, really good, really clean high. Yeah.

Extra $10. So you were a drug dealer. Yeah. And you hit dogs with your car. Yeah, seriously. You sound like you're a bad guy. Yeah.

It's season six of Narcos. You'll see. Your vibes aren't chill at all, bro. What are terpenes? Jim said it's a hat. Yeah. It's a hat. Ah.

That's wrong. Flavors and smells. That's where you get all the, like, the aroma and the taste from is all from the turps. They're the aromatic oils that are also found in plenty of other plants like rosemary and lavender and oranges and mangoes. And yeah, they're responsible for the flavor and the smell. I still don't like the flavor. I'm very impressed.

You just eat it. This wouldn't be as big a thing in edibles, right? It's more like the smoking that'm very you just eat it you wouldn't yeah this wouldn't be as big a thing in edibles right it's more like the smoking or the that you would experience this right yeah definitely i think like people are trying to equate weed with wine right now and i'm not exactly buying it but if you want to talk about like lemon limoline limonene jesus christ um I'll say mercine because it's easier and that's mango. I don't know why I tried to do the hard one. But like, you know, things like that, you can taste the mango in the weed if you smoke it

or if you do a dry pull before you actually light it and you just like pull and exhale a dry hit of a joint, you can really taste all the layers of flavor and aromas in it, which is pretty cool. Yeah, but you just want to get high. I just take it like medicine, shove it in my mouth, and get through it. You were saying you don't like the taste?

I don't like the smell of marijuana. They call it skunk for a reason. It's not a great smell. I'm sure some people get into the smell when they get into weed culture, but I don't like the smell. What was that place we went to in Copenhagen? Remember? Christiana? Oh, no, I didn't go. There was some hippie town where it's blocked off. You didn't go with us? No, I didn't go. Oh, Christiana?

I was on stage. Is that the name of it? You know what I'm talking about? Christiania. Yeah, and it's not legal in Copenhagen, but it's sort of legal there, but it can be raided. It's like weird. Yeah, it's's not legal in Copenhagen, but it's sort of legal there, but it can be raided. It's like weird. Yeah, it's like a free town in the middle of Copenhagen. And it's great when you go, they have blocks of hash out on tables and you can just walk up. And you can shove them up your ass. And shove them up your ass.

But because it's not technically legal there, I think it's like rent controlled and all stuff in there. But it's not, they have these guys and they'll literally have all this, almost in a suitcase or a big piece of rag, so that they can just wrap it and run. So they're like, hey, hey, hey, it's still kind of you're like, what? They're like, nah, get over here, come on. And then everyone's just smoking by a lake. It was pretty cool. Yeah.

A lot of falafel stands in there. What is the entourage effect? Jim, I don't even know what you said. I didn't know. He didn't. What is the entourage effect? It's when you watch too much of that TV show and you think that all Hollywood bros are just the worst.

It's everything working together. It's all the cannabinoids and terpenes all working together in a wonderful whole plant medicine kind of way. There's got to be some hanger-ons in there it's you know all i think all cannabis use whether you're using it medicinally or for recreational unwinding is beneficial and the entourage effect is that whole plant benefit that gets you uh on every level okay and then the endocannabinoid system is? It's near Delta 4, fourth episode of Star Trek. Oh, I was thinking Star Wars. So, man, I think we're both wrong.

Silly. What is that system? I mean, obviously it has something to do with marijuana. Yeah, that's inside everybody's body. That's the system inside your body that works with cannabis, but it also does a ton of other things like regulates your mood and has to deal with appetite and memory and learning and muscle formation and bone growth. And it's kind of another one of those systems where if weed would be federally legal, we could do a lot more research into how powerful and

incredible it is. But as of right now, we know that that is what works with the cannabis plant. Here's one for you. I don't think you should be able to drive on cannabis in the same way you shouldn't drink, drive, and all that type of stuff. Is there a way for the cops to be able to tell? Like I know that you've got the breathalyzer with the alcohol and all that type of stuff. Is there a test that the cops give you?

No. I mean, there have been a couple of attempts to regulate at state law high driving, and, you know, they've created some tests that the only way really is to test your blood. But the problem with that is you can't really tell by how much THC is in someone's blood how high they are. It's not like a blood alcohol level.

How long does it stay in your blood? How long does it stay in your system? How long does it stay in your system? Weeks. So you might've been high two days ago and then they can't tell. Yeah. It's exactly right. I'm not, I'm not telling people to go do that.

It's what it's, it's, it's, it's probably one of the least harmful drugs, recreational drugs that you could take, but it stays in your system the longest. It's not even fair. It's like,

if you smell crack, I think it's out of your system in like two days. Yeah. You can show up to a job interview three days later and be like, hey, what's up? Yeah. Staffers were just fired from the White House because they tested positive for weed. Oh, yeah. Biden.

Yep. He's bloody liberal, lefty government. Yeah, I wasn't like that when Trump was in there. Yeah, when Trump was there, there was no drugs in the fucking place. Now they're all smoking the wacky tobacco. This is something I didn't ask, but maybe this is something new. Is the word marijuana considered racist now? Is that a thing?

Is it the M word? No. I mean, isn't it because the war on drugs was directly affecting black and brown people and marijuana is a word from Mexico? Well, yeah. So Mexico, Mexican immigrants who are coming across the border in the early part of the 20th century were people were afraid of them and they wanted to criminalize them. And so they started associating them with marijuana use. wanted to criminalize them. And so they started associating them with marijuana use. Up until that point, weed was available in American pharmacies as cannabis, as tincture, as something that everyone could use. And so the word marijuana was specifically used to target that population and associate them with being criminal for marijuana use.

When did it become illegal, marijuana? criminal for marijuana use. When did it become illegal, marijuana? Well, the first laws that were passed against it were in the 1920s, I believe. And that was the Marijuana Act, which was passed. But then Nixon was, you were right, Nixon did start the war on drugs. It was when they made it a Schedule I drug and said it was the same as heroin. I saw some documentary. Louis Armstrong wrote a letter to people where he was a big advocate for marijuana. I have no more points.

Great. That's why he's saying what a wonderful world. So marijuana, we should just call it by the one. I'm looking at all the thousands of other names it could be. What do you like to call it, my weed officiatos? What do you like to call it? Weed. Weed.

Weed. What about the devil's lettuce? The devil's lettuce is what I call my prolapsed asshole. I'm looking at all these different nicknames. I'm kind of fond of the term jazz cabbage. Jazz cabbage. I've never heard that. It's not even in of fond of the term jazz cabbage. Jazz cabbage. I've never heard that. It's not even in there.

Oh, there it is. Jazz cabbage and jazz cigarette. I thought jazz cabbage was like a 1970s Bush and Playboy. Just very leafy. Cannabis is the accepted term generally that doesn't have the association with... Cannabis with marijuana is on the way out. That's good because I couldn't spell that and I don't want to learn.

Wacky tabacky. Wacky tabacky. Yeah. Let's see. Another one's joy smoke. Never heard of that. Here's one. Zooey mama.

Never heard of that in my life. Come on. Who said that? They're trying to create new terms and slide them in old term lists. That's from Darryl of a Wimpy Kid. Yeah. Try to say zoomy Mama in a real gusto way and not sound racist.

Give it a go. One I've always hated is grass. I don't like when people call it grass. Like I knew a guy in college who used to be like, I'm going to roll some grass. I'm like, shut up. Fucking grass. Nah.

That sounds like what my dad used to say when he caught me like around the corner of the house. He's like, you smoking dope? And I was like, oh yeah. Dope's a good one. Then you get some grass and you roll yourself a doobie. I still call it pot sometimes. Pot.

Yeah, pot's a good one. Yeah, I say pot a lot. But doobie, is doobie still a thing that someone says? Sure, why not? Wait, here's one. Alice B. Toklas. What? Where does the term Mary Jane come from for it?

Marijuana. But like that just looks like it's in there, the two names. Is that all it is, Mary Jane? Like Maria Juana is Mary Jane in Spanish. Oh, you learn something new every day. Thanks for the help, Louise. I've been walking around with you for years. You've never given me

that bit of fucking information. Luis is in the corner. Lime pillows? No. Okay. So this is a part of the podcast where we ask our guests to,

it's called Dinner Party Facts. We ask our guests to give us some sort of fact or something that our listeners and viewers could use to impress, you know, guests at a dinner party. Related to the subject that you're exposing. We had an incident. Yeah. Something with cannabis that we can, uh, we can talk about and, and, uh.

What do you got for us? I didn't really explain that well, but you get it. Sure. Yeah. A little dinner party fact. Well, we were, our podcast, Weed and Grub was just a part of South by Southwest. And one of the keynote speakers at South by Southwest was Willie Nelson. So we thought we would share a fun dinner party fact about Willie Nelson, if you'd like to take it. So in 1980, Willie Nelson got high on the roof of the White House with President Jimmy Carter's son, Chip Carter. Really? I knew this. You don't cool with President Jimmy Carter's son, Chip Carter. Really? I knew this. I already knew this. I've read this before, yes. Chip Carter smoking weed.

Chip Carter. So it's probably, I mean, he could be the only person to ever smoke weed. Yeah, so he's on the top of the roof. He's got guns and a missile launcher up there and stuff. So your dad has a peanut farm, man. Yeah. I mean, I'm assuming there were still men with guns on the roof back then. Like that was.

It was. The world was a better, it was an easier place. It's like you watch the Kennedy assassination. You're like, why were they in a convertible? Yeah. Well, that was one of the things. Yeah. Conspiracy.

Yeah. But like I asked my mother that when I was a teenager, my first sort of learning that in school. And I go, why were they in a convertible? Oh, it was a much simpler time. We didn't worry about things like that back then. And I'm like, but then, like, his brother gets killed, like, two years later and Martin Luther King gets killed and then, like,

ten years later John Lennon gets, what are you talking about? You didn't worry about things like that. There's more assassinations happening that fucking year than ever. Okay. Mike and Mary Jane, thank you very much. The podcast is called Weed and Grub, correct? And they can get it, we can listen to it anywhere, right? I don't know why we'd ask that.

It's only in some obscure podcast network, right? No, it's available everywhere, correct? Available everywhere you get your pods. You have to mine Bitcoin first. And it drops every Wednesday. It drops every Wednesday morning at 4.20. Thank you. Oh, there you go.

Wednesday morning at 4.20. And then Mike Glazer is at Glazer Boo Hoo Hoo. We'll have that under there on that thing. And at this is Mary Jane underscore for Mary Jane Gibson. Is there anything else you'd like to promote or say before we get going? Um, yeah, leave this podcast in our podcast,

like a five star review on iTunes because it boosts everything in the algorithm. So if you like this show, um, support them by giving them five stars and leaving a review because then more people can find it. That's a good point. We forget to do that every week, so thank you. That was great.

Thank you for being on the podcast. You got one more thing to say, Mary? Jane? I was just going to say, I know we got past the dinner party facts, but I was just going to say for 420, because I know 420 is coming up, that 420 was actually created by a group of friends who used to get high behind the high school at 420. So there's another little fact for you.

You never answered it. I forgot that question. 420 is related to a group of friends. Is it also Hitler's birthday? Am I correct? Yes. It is also that. They were all wearing Nazi regalia when they were smoking behind that school.

Okay, it's best to get off the podcast right now. We've had some questionable things said. If you're ever at a party and some drunk person comes up to you and they say, oh, weed kills you, go, well, I don't know about that, and then walk away and just go eat some food. Good night, Australia.
