When 22 tons of weed washed up on Brazil's beaches one magical summer, that was bad news for the boat full of smugglers who'd vacuum sealed all of that contraband cannabis into tin cans, but it was also the start of one of the greatest summers in weed history.

One minute cannabis was expensive, shwaggy, and hard to find in Brazil. The next it was suddenly free, dank, and everywhere.

So naturally, it will be forever remembered as The Summer of the Cans!

This episode was recorded live in Humboldt County, California as part of the Savage Henry Comedy Festival. Special thanks to everyone at Savage Henry, an incredible independent humor magazine and comedy club operating in the heart of America's most famous cannabis cultivation region.
