There is no feeling in the world quite like enjoying a concert on a summer night. The pandemic stripped us of that unique and awesome experience. Now, for the first time in years, many bands are returning to the road for live shows. The reggae, rock-fusion band Slightly Stoopid is among them. Their Summer Traditions 2022 Tour kicked off July 7 in Bonner, Montana. It’s the first in an epic concert schedule concluding in San Diego, California.

The ensemble was formed by Kyle McDonald and Miles Doughty in the mid 90s, pairing a unique style of California funk with reggae-inspired roots. Over the past two decades, Slightly Stoopid’s sound has evolved but its message has consistently called for cannabis reform. The band launched its cannabis brand Stoopid Organics in mid 2021. Cannabis & Tech Today spoke with Doughty just before the band kicked off its summer tour to discuss his return to the road and why he’s been such a passionate advocate for cannabis the last twenty years.

When you hear the word “survivor,” what comes to mind? Perhaps it's the memory of a traumatic event you overcame or a hardship you endured. For some, “survivor” harkens to the reality television series of the same name, in which contestants compete for a hefty cash prize. For cancer survivor and Survivor competitor Ethan Zohn, it’s a bit of both.

In 2002, Zohn won $1,000,000 on the third season of CBS’ Survivor: Africa. It would be his first of three appearances on the series. He also participated in several other national television shows, including Fear Factor, PitchMen, and The Amazing Race. While competing for the cameras, he was fighting another battle behind the scenes. Zohn was twice diagnosed with CD20+ Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. He spent years undergoing treatment, including two stem cell transplants. 

To help mitigate the symptoms of cancer treatment, Zohn turned to cannabis. He used the herb to treat pain, anxiety, nausea, and aid with sleep. Now ten years cancer free, he uses THC and CBD products to recover from marathons and demanding workouts. Cannabis & Tech Today spoke with Zohn via videoconference to discover what’s next in his journey of overcoming and thriving.
