Chris and Kevin talk about both of the original Reefer Madness movie from 1936 and the 2005 musical that was made, with an A-list cast. In conduction with that, to put this film into historical context, we will discuss the war on drugs as well. What role did the original movie play in the systematic oppression of black and brown people in the United States of America? Who started the war on drugs? Why is marijuana illegal, still in 2020? Join us to learn the answers to these questions and more, in another Halloween themed episode of Talking Musical History. (No matter when you listen to the podcast, it might bring chills to you.)
