I'm looking on everything.

Hi everybody.

It's Bean. Welcome to an all-new great moments in weed history. I ho, hope you're ready to

if you've never heard this tale before and it sounds somewhere between outlandish and blasphemous,

all I can say is buckle up your sleigh bells and get ready for a wild ride with a lot of

historical receipts to back it up. Also, last I checked,

Santa Claus is not a god, so don't worry too much about blasphemy. The big guy, that's God,

Joining me for this journey into the psychedelic soul of Santa Claus is none other than Abdullah

Saeed, my former co-host on Great Moments in Weed History.

So please, allow me to pull up on the reins of our psychedelic reindeer sled just long

enough to say thank you to everyone who listens throughout the year and especially

to those of you who support this show on Patreon. You can join that community at great
