Summary

In this installment of the Wolf’s Den, JB interviews his old friend, Tommy Chong. Tommy gained fame in the seventies as the Anglo half of the legendary, ganja-obsessed comedy duo, Cheech and Chong. He’s managed to remain in the limelight pretty much ever since by appearing in a wide variety of movies and television shows, as well as selling his own brand of water pipes. Chong’s bongs landed him in a little hot bongwater a few years back, and he ended up befriending JB when they were both at camp upstate.JB and Tommy reminisce about their days inside when they were bunkmates, talk Trump, politics, weed, and women, and generally have a familiar and fascinating conversation about everything from government conspiracy theories, to the Russian involvement in the 2016 election, to living in the moment.Learn more about your ad choices.

0:54.8	Nothing would be happening like this in my life,
0:57.3	because Tommy, if you know the story,
0:59.9	is the person who I ended up in prison with,
1:03.4	not in the same prison, but sharing a fricking bunk together, right?
1:07.6	And the only bad part of that
1:10.3	was that Tommy was there doing a year and a day for selling bombs like glass pipes on the
1:16.4	internet so I had to say to myself well if they gave him a year in a day the

1:23.9	So I was, but then I realized you shouldn't have been there for a minute,
1:26.6	so it didn't really apply.
1:28.1	I felt as a God Almighty a year for that.
1:30.3	Like, I mean, that's a whole story.
