The Scoop for July 23, 2020

We’ve talked about Willie Nelson and his love of smoking pot. Well, ever wonder how that got started? Turns out he’s been smoking something, dang near anything, since he was a kid. And then this happened.
He realized, his lungs weren’t holding up, and since he wasn’t getting high on Chesterfield cigarrettes, he smoked joints instead.
I mean, if you’re gonna wreck your lungs, you may as well get something out of it, right?


Other celebs aren’t near as happy about getting high, or people getting high using their name. Looks like Dirty Harry himself is on a one man crusade to rid the CBD business of the name Clint Eastwood.
Clint is suing CBD retailers for using his name and image to advertise. Clint. Look, I’m not telling you how to run your business, but you should take a page from Willie’s book and get your fair share. Partner up with these folks and get what’s yours. Just sayin’.


The next time you find yourself at home, frustrated over having “nothing to watch”, I want you to remember this. You only watch about 2% of the content on Netflix every year. That’s it. 2 per-cent. And if you wanted to watch EVERYTHING, you’d have to binge non-stop for more than four years and two months. You’ve got plenty to watch. You’re just picky.
