On this episode of The Story & Craft Podcast, we sit down with comedian, musician, actor, writer, director, entrepreneur and cannabis advocate, Tommy Chong.  It’s a great chat where we touch on his career on stage and screen, his comedy partnership with Cheech Marin and the ups and downs of being a cannabis advocate.  It’s an insightful look into how Tommy crafted a career as a backing man, but has always tried to lead by example.  We also take a few detours to chat about George Carlin, Tommy’s philosophies on American culture and even a chance encounter with John Lennon.  It’s a cool tour into the mind of the legend and cultural icon that is Tommy Chong.SHOW HIGHLIGHTS0:03:06 - Sushi Chef's Biker Fanbase0:07:27 - Government Entrapment in Bomb Manufacturing0:10:56 - From Bodybuilding to Comedy0:13:39 - The Role of a Backup Musician0:16:41 - From Nightclubs to Comedy0:20:00 - Meeting Teech and Discovering Comedy Talent0:29:17 - Comedy and Cultural Sensitivity0:39:41 - Comedian Influence on Each Other0:47:10 - Stand-Up Comedy and Rodney King Reference0:53:36 - Cheech and Chong's Comedy and Legacy0:55:36 - Cheech and Chong Documentary and Movie1:00:15 - Comedy Style and Jerry Lewis's Influence1:09:39 - Promoting Health and CBD Use1:13:22 - Seven QuestionsListen and subscribe on your favorite podcast app.  Also, check out the show and sign up for the newsletter at www.storyandcraftpod.com. ...#podcast #interview #TommyChong #Chong #CheechAndChong #Comedian #Actor #Director #Cheech #CheechMarin #420 #Canabis #CBD #acting #actorslife #storyandcraft #voiceover #voiceactor
