best known for being high you mean we’re
smoking dog shit man hi I’m Veronica
with watchmojo.com and today as expected
we’re discussing weed with Cheech and
Chong I got a joint man okay Oh voted 0
biscuit Chinese asthma you’re known for
hot and weed how did you decide to use
that as your material well actually the
first time was that they at the rock
club that were we played we’re being
formed together we realized you know if
we mentioned pot would we get a reaction
then we would when we were in Los
Angeles that’s when we decided who
that’s our strength and then we start
adding Chicano stuff because they didn’t
have no Chicanos in Vancouver so we
started doing chicano-latino stuff and
oh that got big reaction hey let me put
Chicano and pop together the great thing
about Cheech and Chong is that we didn’t
talk about pot we were apart yes that’s
right we were pot I’m just a machine I’m
not old or nobody but
just watching you guys are actually
touring right now on your tour get it
legal how long do you think it’s gonna
take before it’s actually legalized
three years my produced three years up
for any purpose in the united states of
California goes legal who everybody will
everybody will be the inheritors of all
the tax benefits ah then you know once
once it becomes legal see what they’re
gonna find out is that it’s gonna
eliminate so many problems law
enforcement problems will be eliminated
the drug cartel in Mexico will be
eliminated because it won’t be worth
their time and effort to bring it across
the border you know because you’ll be
able to grow it in your backyard I used
to say that once it’s legal your
grandmother will grow more pot for you
than you’ll ever need in your life and
that’s true it’s a weed yeah okay here’s
my mother’s cultivation gold never
smoker since I was born and I can smoke
anything like I stole their mutual
command I Coco poor man but do you think
that it’s just a gateway drug damn any
people wait a more weed yeah it’s
actually a gateway the other way it
leads you out of alcoholism you know it
leaves you out of the depression the
reason they call the Gateway is because
in itself it’s not powerful enough to be
addictive or to be harmful so you have
to go to something else if you want to
destroy yourself look at the proponents
of pot right now I’m Michael Phelps how
many gold medals eight gold medals our
last three presidents yeah and there’s a
smoking pot song writers and filmmakers
like Willie Nelson there wouldn’t be a
computer industry at whistle for parties
