This New Year, start your Tuesday mornings off right, with just a little dab of The Hash podcast.
On January 8th, 2019, Leafly is thrilled to launch a brand-new season of the weekly, scripted, cannabis news + lifestyle podcast “The Hash”—delivering potent, super-professional interviews and stories with some of the hottest names in the canna-universe. “The Hash” takes you to cannabis’ budding edge in American life, with the high production values you expect from shows like “Radiolab” and “Fresh Air.” The new season’s guests include Cypress Hill’s B-Real, Rupaul’s Drag Race star Laganja Estranja, and Mimicking Birds’ Adam Trachsel.
Listen to our trailer.
