From Rock Star to Weed Connoisseur

System of a Down bassist Shavo Odadjian has won a Grammy and played on multi-platinum selling records, all fueled by the creative boost he gets from cannabis. In fact, he loves the plant so much he started his own brand, 22 Red, and serves as his own quality control expert. We talk about his first puff, the weed dealer who changed his life, the adventure and occasional pot-holes of trying to score good herb while touring the world, discovering sativas in Amsterdam, and why he became an outspoken advocate for legalization way back before that was cool. Check out Shavo's new solo band: Seven Hours After Violet Episode edited by Matthias Junker PATREON Please support Great Moments in Weed HIstory on Patreon.
