Thursday is Cannabis & The Law day on the Stash, and coming up after the news, we’re taking questions from our loyal listeners about the law in our Ask an Attorney segment. This week, criminal defense attorney and NORML Legal Committee member John Lucy IV addresses roadside searches, clean paraphernalia, and medical marijuana state reciprocity. We’ve got some live music from Grammy winners Los Lonely Boys from back in the days when they were a Texas club band, with a Valentine’s appropriate song, “I Don’t Want To Lose Your Love”. We’ve got an interview with travel writer Rick Steves on the European perception of marijuana. And we round out the podcast today with NORML’s Deputy Director Paul Armentano, with a look at the latest political battles over marijuana at the state level. So Hempy Valentine’s Day… we got some “special” green chocolates for you… sit back with your favorite strain, and enjoy your NORML Daily Audio Stash.
