Today’s Stash is dedicated to two guys who I can’t prove ever toked a reefer, but my Jay-dar tells me they must have at one point in their lives. Comedian Bernie Mac and Composer Isaac Hayes both died over the weekend and I will miss them.
NORML Board Member Madeline Martinez joins us to share the latest good press on the Oregon Cannabis Tax Act. The Sunday Oregonian (Portland’s local daily newspaper) fetured her on the front page of the business section in their Five Questions interview.
Then NORML’s Deputy Director, Paul Armentano, drops by to give us the latest updates on the tragic story of Rachel Hoffman in Tallahassee, Florida.

I am the host of the NORML SHOW LIVE and The NORML Stash Blog. I'm married, live in Portland, Oregon, and I am a registered medical marijuana caregiver in this state. I've worked days as an IT geek and nights as a professional musician. Previously, I have been the host of my own political talk radio show on satellite radio. I've been the High Times "Freedom Fighter of the Month" for my work producing Oregon NORML's TV show, "A Cannabis Community Forum", and for helping to institute Portland's wildly successful medical marijuana cardholders meetings, where we help sick and disabled Oregonians acquire cannabis plant starts, learn gardening, and understand the medical marijuana law. I've dedicated my life to bringing an end to adult marijuana prohibition and re-legalizing cannabis hemp, and I'm honored to be chosen by NORML to be our daily voice.
