Cannabis compounds are also what Willie Nelson calls his house (The real death panels are health insurance companies)

January 2022

“In a new study, researchers found that cannabis compounds can prevent Covid-19 from penetrating human cells. Cannabis compounds are also what Willie Nelson calls his house.” —Jimmy Kimmel

“This would be interesting. All this time we’ve been listening to the C.D.C., we should have been eating CBD.” —Jimmy Kimmel

“You know, it’s funny — all these crazy cures, I’m like ‘Oh, that’s ridiculous.’ Ivermectin, the horse dewormer; bleach. And then somebody says marijuana prevents Covid, I’m like ‘Oh, really? Do tell.’” —Jimmy Kimmel

“In an interview with rightwing media company OAN, Trump confirmed he’d had the Covid booster and called Republican lawmakers who refuse to say they’ve been vaccinated ‘gutless’. It was a thinly veiled barb at Florida’s governor, Ron DeSantis, who stumbled over a question about his booster status on Fox News last weekend. DeSantis is expected to run for the Republican nomination for president in 2024, and you know that makes Trump crazy. Trump desperately wants credit for developing the vaccines, because he should want credit, but the dummies who follow him boo him when he says he got the vaccine. And then you have characters like DeSantis who wants to have it both ways – he obviously got the booster but he doesn’t want to admit he got it. Which makes Trump, who did admit it, look like a wuss to the gators and chewing tobacco crowd. I mean, imagine being called gutless by Captain Bone Spurs.” —Jimmy Kimmel

Challenge accepted!/white guys who love reggae/That Must Be Tough

There is a CBD craze going on is this country. They say CBD oil comes from the hemp plant, and it has trace amounts of THC but usually too small to make anyone high.  Not enough THC to get ya high? Challenge accepted! --Lewis Black

But yes, the new wellness rage is CBD, marijuana's less fun cousin. They say it has all the benefits of weed without the high. But then what's the point? I only smoke weed to get high! I'm not doing it to make friends with white guys who love reggae. --Lewis Black

We don't know if CBD works. But we do know it makes a butt load of money. Basically, CBD is Ivanka Trump! And if you hear a CBD user who's getting angry because I said it doesn't work, guess what, you getting angry means it's not F****** working! --Lewis Black

“A magisterial collection. An emotional roller coaster. Soon to be a cult classic. 

A combination of Bukowski’s Last Night On Earth and Orwell’s 1984.”
