An OG in the world of cannabis entertainment, Cheech and his longtime partner <a href=\"https:\/\/merryjane.com\/culture\/tommy-chong-interview-part-1-merry-jane-news\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tommy Chong<\/a> have kept California up in smoke since the &#x2018;70s. Now, after more than 40 years in the game, Cheech stopped by the MERRY JANE studios to roll up, smoke out, and share his wealth of knowledge. After <a href=\"https:\/\/merryjane.com\/culture\/about-that-time-facebook-live-dope-as-yola\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">our favorite catatonic co-host Dope as Yola<\/a> blessed our guest with a cannon of a joint, we dug into <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/cheechmarinofficial\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Cheech&#x2019;s social media<\/a>, finding stories about killer dogs in Malibu and artistic explorations in South Florida. As is tradition on About That Time, we lit about five joints of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/thcdesign\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">THC Design&#x2019;s finest strains<\/a>, before diving into the week&#x2019;s most pressing cannabis news. Well versed in all things weed, Cheech helped to bring us up to date on <a href=\"https:\/\/merryjane.com\/news\/jeff-sessions-announces-new-opioid-task-force-pil\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jeff Sessions&#x2019; latest opioid task force<\/a> and California&#x2019;s <a href=\"https:\/\/merryjane.com\/news\/licensing-troubles-are-forcing-california-cannabis-companies-to-close-down\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tenuous transition to full legalization<\/a>. Like every ATT guest, Cheech left &#x2018;Roll The News&#x2019; with his very own <a href=\"https:\/\/weekendbox.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Weekend Box<\/a>, before getting into all things Chicano art. A scholar and collector of Chicano art for decades, Cheech is now opening a museum dedicated to the oft-overlooked California style. For more Cheech Marin, <a href=\"https:\/\/cheechmarin.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">check out Cheech &amp; Chong on tour<\/a> around the country, revisit all of their classic films, and keep your eyes peeled for the opening of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/entertainment\/arts\/miranda\/la-et-cam-cheech-marin-chicano-art-center-20170424-story.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Cheech Marin Center for Chicano Art, Culture and Industry<\/a> &#x2014; coming to Riverside, California in 2020.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Time flies when you&#x2019;re having fun, but there&#x2019;s a lot more coming down the pipe.
