Episode 33: “Puff or Pass”: Can The Simpsons Really School Us on Cannabis?
We’ve all been there: you’re watching TV or a movie, playing a video game or listening to some music, when drugs enter the storyline. This can go well -- and it can also go really badly. On this episode, we’re introducing a new series we call “Puff or Pass.” It examines how drugs and people who use drugs are portrayed in pop culture, for better or worse. Kicking this series off for us is Brian Hackel, currently interning for DPA’s communications team. He digs into a recent episode of The Simpsons called “Highway to Well” -- and his analysis is as brilliant as it is hilarious. Will he puff or pass on this portrayal? Listen to find out. Note that the opinions on Puff or Pass are the guest's own, and don't necessarily represent the official position of DPA.
