Wait…how many blunts a day can a rapper smoke?

Hearing that the number could be as high as seventy-five blunts a day, Jason and Peter- in search of the answer- went directly to the source. 

Snoop Dogg’s former personal blunt roller, Ranagade PerRana reveals just how much pot is smoked and why some feel the need to employ a blunt roller.

Jason’s slew of allergies prevents him from partaking in the California marijuana renaissance so consequently, he had to learn pot terminology, and he and Peter also found out about:
Pot’s possible medicinal qualities.
How Ranagade went from Iranian migrant to full-time blunt roller.
What happens when recreational smoking gets out of control. 
Blunt rolling party pop-ups.
What a blunt roller’s tax write-offs look like.
Franchising opportunities and the rise of the Professional Roller Association of America.

In the United States, the airline industry loses an estimated 2 million bags annually. Now you might be wondering, where do all those lost bags end up? Well Jason and Peter were able to get a definitive answer to that question. The majority end up in Alabama! Really, no Really!

Our guest Bryan Owens discusses his unique family business…which has been dealing with lost and unclaimed luggage for over 50 years. Their enormous store, in Scottsboro, Alabama - which covers more than a city block - sells tens of thousands of unclaimed baggage items every year.

And with five decades of experience processing enormous volumes of lost items, Bryan reveals some of the one-of-a-kind pieces found in unclaimed luggage… including a 3,000-year-old Egyptian burial mask, a live rattlesnake, and even a shrunken human head which you can see in the store’s recently opened museum.

IN THIS EPISODE:
The Unclaimed Baggage origin story and how they stock 7,000 new items every day.
Airlines responsibility regarding lost luggage, settling claims and when Bryan’s team can take over.
Who gets first dibs on valuable or in-demand items when lost luggage is recovered?
A highly secret F14 guidance system, live venomous snakes and suits of armor are just a few of the bizarre things Bryan must deal with.
How you can save up to 80% by purchasing someone else’s lost items!
How Bryan Owen’s business employs dozens of pricing experts, authenticators and even GIA certified appraisers so he can issue certificates of authenticity.
The psychology behind why most people don’t attempt to reclaim their stuff!
Jason’s secret to finding lost items…look in the pickle barrel!
Googleheim: Jason’s spring-loaded blackjack and a list of obvious and not so obvious items you can’t bring on an airplane.

Confessions of a Rented Bridesmaid

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/126b021e-fe31-4e89-b432-b1850024cddb/transcript

A man attempted suicide by overdosing on a drug he was given in a clinical trial. He was rushed to a hospital in bad shape…shaking, breathing rapidly with a dangerously low pulse, and blood pressure that had bottomed out. He was eventually stabilized, but not by anything the staff at the hospital did. The treatment and cure?  He was informed that the overdose he had taken was a placebo. He had downed 29 capsules that were effectively sugar pills and the cause of his medical emergency… was all in his mind…Really, no really!

Jason and Peter were fascinated by the seemingly lethal effects of an inert substance. And while they had heard about the placebo effect, they were amazed that it could be this powerful. To find out more, they sought out the world’s foremost expert and researcher on the subject. Dr. Luana Colloca is a distinguished professor at the University of Maryland and the Director of the Placebo Beyond Opinions Center.

As an NIH-funded, internationally recognized expert, Dr. Colloca and her team research human pain modulation in patients suffering from chronic pain hoping to deepen understanding of placebo and nocebo effects.

IN THIS EPISODE:
The reason for the placebo’s creation in 1799.
Why the placebo effect is more powerful than you think.
The lesser-known nocebo effect and how it works.
How do placebos mimic active treatments?
Is it ethical to prescribe placebos without informing patients?
Why patients who KNEW they were getting placebos improved!
The placebo effect on positive vs negative-minded people.
Acupuncture, reiki, other alternative treatments - placebos?
Jason’s trick for alleviating pain using the power of his mind.
A placebo to replace erectile dysfunction medications?
Pondering non-medical uses for placebos - placebo vacations?
Google-:heim: Placebo “isn’t” but “is.” Here are other things we think “are” that “aren’t.”
