We went thrifting and found a book on Chinese mythology, where Sam learned about the story of The Monkey King. This satirical legend is full of twists and turns and Sam gave us the best summary they possibly could. Bring your bespoke wands because it's a hell of a ride!

Jess Meducated us this week by giving us an update on cannabis legalization as well as reparations for black families effected by past cannabis convictions. We talked about how a Chicago suburb is starting to set a precedent for the rest of the country.

Special thanks to Robin Rue Simmons and Evanston, IL for working to make change happen.

Thanks for listening!
