That‘s Absurd

Episode 377: Because I Got High

🌿 Topic of the Week: Weed Culture — From Underground to Everyday
We take a ride through how weed went from something hidden… to something heavily marketed, legalized, and normalized in everyday life. Is it still “culture”… or just another industry?
🎤 Culture & Influence
When did weed go mainstream?Was it during the era of Snoop Dogg making it part of his identity? Or when movies like Friday made it funny and relatable? We talk about the moment weed stopped being taboo and started being… branding.
Who normalized weed the most?From Wiz Khalifa to Bob Marley — who made it feel cool, spiritual, or just everyday behavior?
Authentic vs. CommercializedIs today’s weed culture still organic… or did legalization turn it into a corporate rollout? When dispensaries look like Apple stores, is it still “for the people”?
😂 Personal Experience (Keep It Real… but Funny)
Funniest or most unexpected high story
Are you the creative high type or the sit there and vibe out type?
What’s your go-to activity? (Music, food, deep convos, random YouTube rabbit holes)
This is where the episode gets relatable — everybody has that story.
🎶 Music, Movies & Media
Best album to listen to high?Classics like Kush & Orange Juice or Man on the Moon: The End of Day — we debate what actually enhances the experience.
Movies & shows that hit differentFrom Pineapple Express to trippy animations — what becomes 10x better?
Most believable weed personaWho actually lives it vs. who’s just selling it? Some celebs feel authentic… others feel like marketing campaigns.
💼 Industry & Business
Has legalization helped or hurt the culture?More access, less stigma — but also more regulation, higher prices, and corporate influence. Did weed lose its edge when it became legal?
🔥 Debates / Hot Takes
Is smoking still “cool”?Or is it just normal now — like grabbing coffee?
Edibles vs. SmokingWhich one really wins? Faster vs. longer, controllable vs. unpredictable — and who’s had that one edible experience that went completely left?
🎨 Creative / Funny Segment
If weed had a theme song… what is it?Something like Because I Got High or maybe something smoother — you decide.
Smoke session draft (3 people, dead or alive)Who’s in your rotation?Could be legends like Bob Marley, modern icons, or completely random picks that would make the session hilarious.
🎧 Closing Thoughts
Weed culture has gone from rebellion… to routine. The question is — did we gain freedom, or lose something along the way?

Episode 376: Setting the Record Straight

🔥 Question of the Week
Hoe phase timing: early or later?
Would you rather:
Have your “hoe phase” when you’re young, broke, and figuring life out… then settle down in your 30s?OR
Get married young, have kids, build stability… then divorce later and enter your “hoe phase” when you’re older and established?
We debate experience vs. stability, emotional maturity, and whether timing really changes the outcome — or if chaos just shows up on schedule anyway.
