“I didn’t have many dreams set in stone, but smoking a joint with Wiz was one of them,” tweeted Duki, Argentina’s biggest rap export, after an unforgettable night at the Sauce Boyz Fest in Puerto Rico.

No, this isn’t a stoner comedy scene from a Woody Harrelson or Matthew McConaughey movie (or better yet, starring McConaughey’s mom). It’s not a dream, and it’s definitely not an AI-generated clip making the rounds online. It’s a real story, straight from the mouths of the actors themselves, shared on Where Everybody Knows Your Name, the podcast hosted by Harrelson alongside Ted Danson. The show is basically an excuse for longtime friends and Hollywood insiders to sit down, loosen up, and swap stories about their careers, their lives, and the kind of behind-the-scenes moments that don’t usually make it into…

A new interim rule would end automatic firearm denials based on a single instance of marijuana use, aligning federal policy with recent court rulings and growing legal pressure. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives has issued an interim final rule that could significantly narrow the federal ban on firearm possession for people who use cannabis or other controlled substances. Under the proposed change, marijuana use would no longer automatically disqualify someone from purchasing or possessing a firearm. Instead, federal authorities would need evidence of regular or compulsive unlawful drug use over an extended period of time to trigger…

T Wagner, Gaetano Lardieri, Nichelle Santos, Jessica Umlauf, Vaughn Wagner At PhilaDelic 2025, the most consequential question was not whether psychedelics can help people. It was whether U.S. healthcare can recognize, reimburse, and safely scale the kind of care these treatments actually require. The molecule is rarely the bottleneck. The bottleneck is coverage: the administrative, financial, and operational machinery that determines what becomes a routine benefit versus a boutique, cash-pay luxury. Picture the moment that would make “psychedelic medicine” real for most people. It is not a headline or a breakthrough trial result. It is a patient—or a burned-out nurse,…

With the nationwide launch of Edibles.com last spring, Edible Brands, the company behind Edible Arrangements, is entering bold new territory: THC. Yes, that Edible Arrangements — the name behind the flower-shaped pineapples and chocolate-covered strawberries gracing teachers’ desks and mother-in-laws’ kitchen islands since 1999. The idea of transitioning to THC had been percolating for a while, with the brand acquiring the domain name a year ago after settling a cybersquatting lawsuit to release the name from World Media Group, an entity that had acquired the site with the hope of turning a profit by reselling it. Soon after, Edible Brands…

On Joe Rogan, a Republican senator described how alcohol interests and segments of the state-legal cannabis industry aligned to push back against hemp-derived THC. For years, the crackdown on hemp-derived THC products has been framed as a matter of consumer safety. Products too strong. Rules too loose. Markets moving faster than regulators. Also read: America Cards You for Beer. So Why Can’t It Card for Hemp-THC? Last week, on one of the most widely watched podcasts in the world, a sitting U.S. senator described a different dynamic at play. Appearing on The Joe Rogan Experience, Rand Paul said the push…
