All aboard the Pineapple Express! This week on Shoot the Hostage, Sarah and Dan are blazing a trail through the sticky green jungle of films about drugs as they unpack the 2008 stoner comedy, Pineapple Express.

Join us atop the podcast pineapple as we dive into the surprisingly long history of stoner comedies, from 1932’s Jewel Robbery to the anti-marijuana propaganda of Reefer Madness and how the abolition of the Hays Code in the late 60’s truly unleashed the genre with pioneers like Cheech and Chong.

Here’s what to expect from the episode:

Season 11 runs until August 11th with 8 episodes
