So, a special show about pot - weed- cannabis. What ever you call it, it was what Robert Platshorn was known for. He served almost 30 years in federal prison for smuggling pot back in the 1970s. Upon his release, he founded The Silver Tour to educate senior citizens about the value of medical marijuana. Today, we'll go back to our first conversation after he was [...]

Weed and Music

I usually appreciate Fridays as much as the next person, knowing that with the weekend comes some down time. But this week, I really needed it. The end of the week that gave us "rectal rehydration" and other images that we can never erase from our minds couldn't come soon enough. But it wasn't only the torture report. We saw the Democrats cave, yet again. They let the Republicans get away with pushing through a massive spending bill with a number of truly heinous provisions shoved in, literally at the last-minute in the dead of night behind [...]

We Need a Progressive Governor in Florida

There's one running and that's Nan Rich. I've had two opportunities to question her - the second time was this morning on my show - and she answered each and every question exactly as I'd hoped she would. The first time I interviewed her was a few weeks ago at the Boca Raton-Delray Beach Democratic Club. You can watch that Q&A here, as we livestreamed the event: This morning, she joined me for a one-on-one conversation and, again, I am so impressed. Not only do we need to rid ourselves of the embarrassment and scourge on our state that is [...]

CNN aired a pretty remarkable program last night. I don't know if they're going to air it again or make it available online - so the next best thing is to watch "Should Grandma Smoke Pot?". It was put together by Robert Platshorn, the guy behind The Silver Tour, who also holds the distinction of being imprisoned longer than any other American on marijuana charges. Yes. That familiar voice narrating the video is mine. Robert Platshorn joined me on the show this morning to talk about the CNN special report, Weed, and to update us on the medical marijuana movement [...]
