Download the NORML Daily Audio Stash for 2008-05-13
It’s Tuesday, May 13th and it’s 4:20 somewhere in the world. I’m your host, “Radical” Russ Belville.
We here at NORML would like to remind you to get involved in the cannabis civil rights movement and join us here at NORML – you can learn everything you need to know at NORML.org. Make a donation, write a letter, attend a march – it all starts with you. Call your Congress at 202-224-3121 – they’ll ask your zip code and put you in touch with your elected officials. Tell them to support HR5842 and HR5843 to end DEA raids in medical marijuana states and legalize personal possession of pot. It still is a government of We the People, but you have to step up and do your part.
Tuesday is Government at Work day on the podcast, and coming up after the news, we’re going to speak with Dan Linn of Illinois NORML. A medical marijuana bill in the Illinois legislature has recently been amended to address the concerns of law enforcement and Dan joins us to break down the latest changes.
After that Cannabis Karri brings us Rocker-T from Oakland, CA. His song “Tru Ganjaman” is an excellent hybrid of dancehall and reggae that will get your toes tapping and feet moving. Irie!
We’ll wrap up today with the latest scary report about how heavy marijuana use could lead to an increased risk of stroke and heart attack. Bruce Mirken from Marijuana Policy Project joins us to rebut the findings and to ask one simple question: “Where are the bodies?”
There’s plenty to talk about, so sit back and relax with your favorite strain – this is your NORML Daily Audio Stash.
