And because they moved it from L.A. to Glendale and then the day before from Glendale to San Bernardino. They had to find a way to make it happen, huh? They did. They were really determined to make this happen. L.A. City Council does not want a giant marijuana festival going down in L.A. They don't let you do anything fun in L.A. County. I know. And Glendale was like, nope, that whole thing is against the law in our town. But. We got an exclusive interview with the editor of High Taps. And so we might be able to play a little snippet of that interview here later in the show. Nice. Which will be nice. It was really fun. He was a really nice dude. We all got very, very, very high that day. Was he really, I mean, like really chill? Is he an older guy, younger guy? He was a younger guy. He was really chill. He was really nice. Where is he from? Is he local? I mean, is he from New York? I know they're based out of New York. They're based out of New York. He was from New York. Oh, cool. Hey, we got another caller. We got another caller. Caller. This is the hot box. Welcome. Hi, how are you? Good. How are you? I'm good. I was just wondering. I saw a status update and it said to call this number. So I'm calling it. Yay. Sweet. What's your name, caller? My name is Kitty. Oh, Kitty. What are you doing today? Yeah. I'm doing. I'm doing homework. And what are you doing? We're about to sacrifice a virgin. Sacrifice a virgin? Hell, I'm a virgin. Sacrifice me. Oh, you should have come in. I can't. Why not? Where are you calling from? I'm tied to a post. Who tied you to a post? My sacrificianer. This sounds like a love bite call. Oh, man. So, like, you are tied to a post about to be sacrificed. We're about to weed sacrifice Alex here. Ooh, I want to watch. Are you going to put it online? I actually am. The podcast, the whole podcast will be available sometime in the future. Probably Saturday or Sunday, right? Screw the present. It's all about the future. Who am I speaking with? This is Mindy. Mindy. Mindy. Mindy, the hot box host. Oh, I see. My name is Alex. I'm the one that's going to be sacrificed. Oh, hi, Alex. Congratulations on what you're being sacrificed. So, Alex, how old are you? I'm 35. I will be 36 in June. And how many times in your life have you smoked weed thus far? None. Never. What drugs have you done? Advil, Tylenol, anything? Cough syrup, a little codeine. Scissor? Oh, my gosh. I've been on scissor. Scissor. No, actually, no. I mean, if anything, it's probably more like allergy medicine or like Excedrin or anything like that. Maybe like a little amoxicillin here and there. Do you drink? Occasionally. I'm not very big on drinking, but. And you've never like super duper overdone the cough syrup? Like never a downed bottle of Tussin? No. No. So, recommended dosage type of guy. Yeah. Okay. Just to cure the cough, not to get wasted. Well within the guidelines. So, no hallucinogenics just far? No. Never eaten the shrooms? Never. No acid? No. Actually, you know, true story. Like when I was younger, when about like fourth grade, I mean, how it kind of came about is me and two other friends, we made a pact that we would never do drugs. This whole back in the dare days, if you guys remember. Is that still around? I'm sure it's still around. It is. I think in the time of dare, I was like, someone's laughing. Caller, what's so funny? No, I think it's the back of that. It wasn't me. I'm sorry. I accidentally. I accidentally turned on your radio station. Oh, cool. Oh, do you hear yourself? It's so weird. Yes, I can hear myself. It's like speaking into the spotlight zone right now. That's the best news we've heard all night. Oh. Done it. How are you going to sacrifice him? Well, I've got, when I was at the cannabis cup this weekend, I bought some Girl Scout cookies, which is one of the weed entered. One of the strains entered. I'm going to try to find out what's in the cannabis cup. So his first taste of weed is going to be the greens Girl Scout cookies. You are so lucky. You know what my first weed was? Skunk bud. Aw. I don't even know if that sounds good. It tastes like roadkill. You smoked before? Oh, my God. Have you ever smoked so much you passed out in your classroom? I passed out in the shower. I've never gone to school high. Oh. I'm just checking. Okay. Just checking. What about you? Me? No, never. Uh-uh. No. That's just weird. No. There were times when I've woken up and smoked right away and the weed was so strong that I ended up falling back asleep within an hour. That's the way to do it. That's good sleep right there. If only we didn't have to have day jobs. I don't. Right. Most is the only one that can get away with it. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Well, hey, caller. How many people? What? What? How many people are on here? Well, there's four people in this room right now, plus Nick's running the soundboard at our professional podcast recording station. Okay. Well, you guys have a good show.

And we're just super excited to be live for you guys and to be getting callers. Yeah, we love callers. This is like caller heaven. Have you smoked weed before, caller? Be honest. Have I smoked weed before? Yeah. No, but I was invited to do it about six times. Well, right now, you're about to witness live on air Alex here, 35 years old, has never hit a bowl, and he's about to hit some really dank shit called Girl Scout cookies. Now, for all you people new to smoking out there. Yeah, I'm going to be smelling like he is right now. Right? Hey, Chris, you know, it still counts if you didn't inhale. Hold the card. No. Light the bowl. Okay. Suck through the penis end looking thing. Oh, okay. Before you cough, let go with your thumbs. Suck the rest in. Move the pipe away from your face. And then you can cough. Keep it in as long as possible. It is time. Woo. It is time. Woo. Woo. Thanks for calling in, Chris. Alex. Thanks, Chris. We'll talk to you later. All right. Bye. Bye. So light it, right? Yeah. Here we go. Don't act like you don't know. No, I don't. I'm actually nervous. So. Let it burn first or what do I do? You light it and then when the fire's over, it sucks through and the fire will suck to the weed. Dude, we got another caller. It's pretty intuitive. Here we go. He's doing it. Oh, I see the smoke. You got to let go of that. Oh. Woo. First time. Look at you. All right. We got another caller. Caller, what's up? What's going on? It's Ahmad. How's it going, Ahmad? I'm fine. I'm fine. How are you doing? Good. We're getting high in the hot box. Oh, that's great. That's great. Now, what's the subject? I like I saw on your Facebook. He's at calling. I'm like, what's going on right now? So I decided to say, hey, fuck it. Let me do it. Yeah. Well, thanks for calling. We're having a virgin sacrifice live on the radio. Alex is 35 and he just took his first hit of weed. Oh, man. Enjoy this. I know he's still coughing. I know he's still coughing. We're going to give him a second before you ask how it's feeling. Have you smoked weed, caller? Do you have any interesting stories about your first time smoking weed? Oh, man. First time. Well, not my first time. Just one interesting time. Well, these guys I know, they decided to mix salvia with whatever. I think they were smoking something. OG Kush or some or some purple or whatever it was. They mixed it in with the with the mixed in with salvia. I took a hit of that. And I swear to God, everything in the room started started to start looking like an episode of The Simpsons. Of The Simpsons. Everybody. I'm not even kidding you. It got to the point. Then, you know, with salvia, you get the uncontrollable laughing. Yeah. I couldn't stop laughing. And I wanted to stop laughing. Me neither when I did salvia. Everything turned into like bubbles in a long bubble hallway. Yeah. That too. I had finished. I wanted to stop, but I couldn't. And I was still laughing. I'm trying to make myself laugh, but I couldn't stop laughing. Then I started crying. And everybody was like, what the fuck? That's when you know it's good, when you laugh to tears. No, he was really crying. Please make it stop. Please. I was crying while I was laughing. Like, full on boohoo crying from stop trying to laugh. That's my weed and salvia story right there. Cool. I'll do it again. I'll do it again with no problem. This time, I pretty much, I think I have a little bit more control over it. Cool. Awesome. Well, Alex has taken his first hit. The pipe has made its way around the room. He's about to take number two. How do you feel after number one? Does your... My throat's still burning. I think I... Do you really? You really went for it. No, no, no. I got some. I'm good. Okay. Can I go again? Is that okay? You can go again. It's time. Number two. It should be noted, Alex is so serious about doing this right, he brought a designated driver. Shit, I can't do it. That's good. You gotta be responsible about weed even. Even weed, you gotta be responsible. You do, you know. I agree. Weed, really? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Nah, I've never needed a designated driver. Half of the time, the weed is in the circulation of the system. It'll go down within the next 30 or 45 minutes. You'll lose it after then. Whatever you're smoking, I don't want it. It didn't last about that long. Yeah, okay. I got it. Well, it's my first time, so I didn't know what kind of reaction I'd get. So at that point, I'd rather be safe. You can never be too careful. That's true. Just be safe. Yeah, I see. We here at Skid Row Studios promote personal responsibility. Yeah. responsibility. Good call. Actually, Mindy, I have a question for you as far as drivers. Does everyone trickle out of Cannabis Club really slowly? Is it just like the most mellow parking lot let out you've ever seen? I don't really recall leaving Cannabis Club. Oh, shit. I recall, though, going there, all the car doors were opening slowly and smoke was billowing up and it was like a field full of zombies just making their way They didn't want to walk around, so everyone was jumping this little hole in the fence and just walking across the road, making the highway traffic stop. It was like a pilgrimage of stoners to the Mecca of stoner world. How many people do you think they had out there? At least probably like 2,000. That's pretty crazy. Yeah, the lines for the two food services they had were like insane. That's when Jeremy waited in line to get these tornado potatoes, which were the most phallic looking thing ever. It's a potato spiraled around a stick, so it looks like a giant corn dog and you're supposed to somehow eat it like that. You can get those at Lollicup. You just walk in and like, there's no line. Why would you want to eat it like that? I don't get it. And then when I ask for like a plate, they look at me like I'm crazy. Like, what? You don't know how to suck a dick potato? I don't know. I just like my potatoes, you know, laying down when I take care of business. I like my potatoes. I don't know. Somebody needs to go make a jack-in-the-box run over there because I know you're going to be fucking hungry as shit. Are you volunteering? My co-host, Melissa, she made some brownies and some chocolate chip cookies. These are not just some brownies and some chocolate chip cookies. These are green tea brownies and ube chocolate chip cookies. Yeah, she's the baker. Your baking is like fantastic. I have yet to try that. Every time you bake something, how does it look? Good testimonial. Thank you so much for calling. You're always making something so delicious and I have yet to taste it. I kind of wanted you to put some weed in it. Yeah. Your next step is to become a professional weed cook. I am more than happy to. I would love to team up with someone if somebody would like to go in collaboration. I might be able to help out. Really? I didn't get to everywhere, but I feel the weed treats were kind of lacking at Cannabis Cup. Maybe I just didn't get to the right booths. I got a sugar cookie, but it was kind of tasted really flowery. It would have been an alright sugar cookie if I were to buy it at the store. You and me, what's next year? Yeah. Oh, girl, we're going to make some money. There's this drink called Chronic Ice, which I had heard about from the internet from being in the hot box and looking at other cool weed places. They make weed beverages. I got to try one and it was so delicious and thirst quenching. It wasn't carbonated. It was like a tea and I got lemon lime flavored and then you barely tasted that weed, but it had to be made with awesome weed because it was a good weed taste. Does that count as an edible? Yeah, I mean, I guess. It gives you that like body high, like all your skin is melted together. Yeah, like you can drink it. You can make it into little hard candies. Oh, what? Yeah, like little, just like you Oh, not the drink. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Like weed flavored stuff. Well, caller, thank you for calling. I'm going to let you go because we're going to play a little bit of music and then we'll be back on the air figuring out what is up with Alex. Man, it sounds like down there is the place to be right now. This is always the place to be. On Tuesdays from 9 to 10. Past Tuesdays, according to Snoop Dogg. I'm in Anaheim right now. I'm like, okay, where's the studio at? Because I know I need to be there. Downtown LA. There's a hint in the name. Skid Row. Skid Row Studios. And listen on Wednesdays from 9 to 10. Oral Simulation.

Thank you so much for calling in. Alright. Ooh. I was gonna play a couple songs. Give us a little time to do phase two of the stoning of Alex. Do you get to untie me at least? Geez. I wanna scratch my nose. Not until this $5 massive hunk of a cannabis cup joint is smoked. Wait, you bought that there? Yeah. That is really big. Are you excited? Thank you. Yeah. Hold it. This is bigger than like those little cigars that I make. You can go a couple months out of. Dude, I'm down. The cigarillos. I think I'll be more comfortable with that. Listeners? The pipe scared me a little bit. Putting stuff in my mouth like that is a little awkward. This might be a little smoother. Here's a little bit of music. This band's called Love in the Circus. The song is called Simple. Let's go. I want it easy. I want it simple. I want it straight. I want it stronger. I want it better. I want it good. Cause every time you go, you make a mess of me. I want it easy. I want it simple. I want it straight. I want it stronger. I want it better. I want it good. Cause every time you go, you make a mess. Oh, you take the best of me. Take all of what he did out my head. I wonder where I'd be without you. Or what I said. Only time will tell what we did with it. Why don't you come and tell me what you want? I want it easy. I want it simple. I want it straight. I want it stronger. I want it better. I want it good. I need it good. Cause every time you go, you make a mess. You take the best and you leave the rest of me.

Yeah, this is hit number five or six. I've lost count. He's so into it. Hey, you're going to turn into a stoner is what I'm thinking. Yeah, oral stimulation is going to become oral stimulation. You look good with that joint in your fingers. That's like my bad attempt at a pickup line, but I'm not trying to pick you up. My favorite pickup line is that shirt looks becoming on you. If I was on you, I'd be coming too. That works. Beautiful, beautiful. Oh, thank you. Oh, I got to play something for you. This is a recording that I've never listened to. And it's supposedly of a frog that says weed poop. Let's check it out really quick. That did not say weed poop. Okay, I was disappointed there. That wasn't even close. Man. He heard it. Did you hear the weed poop? Did he poop? I might have missed the poop because I was listening for the weed. The whole thing was the weed. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It just went and ended. It went. So, weee. And you click and it's like. Weee. Anybody got any crazy stories about the first time they smoked? Hey, real talk. The first time I ever smoked. Yeah. I watched the episode of 24 at like a 45 degree angle. Oh, was your head tilted? No, no, no. My body was tilted. I was literally at a 45 degree angle. Yeah, it was great that day. Hey, right. I thought Jack Bauer was a superhero for real. Kiefer Sutherland's, his character. I thought that was a superhero, man. I almost fell over watching that show. I remember the first time I smoked, it wasn't a lot. And I did not get high my first time smoking. And I was disappointed. I was like, oh, I guess it doesn't work on me. What, what? Well, once you figure it out, because I mean, I'm feeling like more chill, relaxed, but I'm not like all, like spaced out. Yeah, like. Am I supposed to be? I don't know. Not really. Like some people might get more spacey than others. But again, like I didn't get high my first time. But my second time, the moment I realized what being really fucking stoned was, was the second time I smoked weed and I was in my own apartment and I went to the wrong wall to try and turn off a light switch. That's when you realized it? Yeah, and I was just doing like patting at a wall. And then I was like, oh man, I think something's different here. It happened. So do you feel it? Tell me how your new stoner body feels. I feel really relaxed, actually. Yeah. Do you feel so alive? Yeah. I just want to keep coughing. I feel like coughing out. Drink some water. I might. How about you guys? How you feeling? Well, I'll tell you guys. I think the first time I had edibles, I made brownies myself. And I got the recipe from like a huge drug dealer in the Midwest who's like, oh, you have to use it all and you have to make it as potent as possible. Just like that. Just like that. So I mixed up the oil and everything, did the brownies. I was scared to even lick the spatula, but finally I made the brownies and I took a teeny tiny corner and I was sitting on my couch thinking, oh, this is no big deal. And then all of a sudden I go, oh shit. All my skin is melted. It's all melted together. No way. I don't know how I made it up the stairs, but I woke up in the middle of the night thinking I was going to fall into this hole in my bed. So I got down on the floor and was also on the edge of a hole and I woke up and I was just like so sick. And I just remember thinking like I either need to die or fall asleep right now. And I woke up the next day and I was still high. I had to drive on the freeway. That was terrifying. It was terrifying. It was terrifying. I must have made some really potent brownies. Listen, I'm telling you, you and me, we can team up in the kitchen. Yeah. I'll pick out the perfect, the fluffy, sticky, the weed that would make the best butter. I'll make weed butter. Weed honey butter. There you go. I love honey butter and I love weed. I guess I like butter. I'm actually not a big fan of butter, but it's all right. Honey butter? You're okay with it? It has a little honey in it. Yeah. I've never heard of that. I don't think black families have honey butter. What? Oh, you just pour honey on some butter and stir it together. That seems like a pretty black thing. Honey butter? Nah. You like honey butter? Like just honey. I didn't have honey until I was in high school. We didn't even have honey. Wasn't shit sweet around my house. Oh, man. Our sugar snaps didn't even have sugar. It was just snaps. Dude, once I asked somewhere, I asked for honey with my chicken nuggets at McDonald's. The dude like thought I was crazy. I was like, honey? Why would we have honey? I always get honey with my chicken nuggets. Do they have honey here? Yeah. Because I live in the Midwest. I always get honey when I get chicken nuggets. Honey and ranch. I do honey and barbecue. Dude, this guy at McDonald's thought I was insane for asking for honey. You are not insane for asking for honey. Maybe some other things. Definitely not wanting the honey. Okay. She said okay. I like honey. All right. Well, I'm going to play one more song and then we will be back to check on the condition of stoner Alex. Shh. No. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. What condition? My condition was in. I woke up this morning with the sun down shining in. I found my mind in a brown paper bag. But then I tripped on a cloud and fell eight miles high. I tore my mind on a jagged sky. I just dropped in. See. What condition? My condition was in. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. What condition? My condition was in. I pushed my soul in a deep, dark hole and then I followed it in. I watched myself crawling out as I was crawling in. I got up so tight I couldn't unwind. I saw so much. I broke my mind. I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in. I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.

Cause of Washington DC Oh Like they started in Alaska and ended in Hawaii and the rest of the time they drove this van around They should have entitled it 51 states in one day in one country if they drove through Canada but they kinda like left that I think they might have flown over Canada That's the best way to go to Canada I do not think it's physically possible to get to Canada Alaska and Hawaii without flying Yeah Alaska Don't they have an ice bridge? I thought Canada was connected to They should go to Russia Well all these questions like when they're gonna tour Russia we will be asking Dale Crover next week Perfect right?

I'm not like too crazy I thought I'd be like totally like spaced out Clinging to the wall Totally relaxed So how about this Does this remove some of the stigma that you may have had associated with with weed? Yeah actually I mean I mean Well after my first few hits I don't I don't know if I can really make a judgement I mean I might need to do more Yeah To get a better idea right? More weed we can make that happen That's a common thing Yeah that's a common thing with some people that the first time they smoke They don't I guess maybe You might be a little nervous in some way you're kinda fighting it a little bit because you're not sure what's gonna happen but the second time you do it dude you're gonna feel good I think well the first time I didn't really know all I felt was like my because I think I took it really hard Yeah That sounds terrible by the way Oh wow That sounds perfect But I think at the top of the point I got like the back of my throat was burning I'm like damn dude I took it That also didn't sound right I have no shame I'm cool with it So at that point I was like alright and then I wanted to take another hit to make sure Yeah And then I think it was easier with the joint to be honest with you You like the joint better So your first hit was what? A barf? A barf? No it was through the pipe It was Girl Scout cookies Yeah but I'm not used to having something like that in my mouth Damn This whole conversation Damn It's from our oral simulation show Do you know how many clips we're gonna get out of that?
