I would like to announce that I will be doing the Groovin’ Thursday music selections on the NORML Daily Audio Stash with “Radical” Russ Belville. Thanks to “Radical” Russ and NORML. I look forward to bringing you the best Independent Hip-Hop, Rap, Funk, and R&B that’s out in the world today. The first spliff I’m gonna light for y’all and a sneak peak for you JDR readers to what is ahead on The NORML Stash is the latest track from B-Real “Fire”. I know you JDR listeners have jammed it on the show, but it will be nice to bring that awesome tune to the good listeners of the NORML Stash too. It’s gonna be sweet and I see this as a huge benefit for the both of our Podcasts. I look forward to working with Russ on future projects and media endeavors. We at JDR also still have a few tricks up our sleeve for future plans and some other big nugs curing, waiting to be packed and lit. Stay tuned, its gonna be a sweet 2010 for all of us.

Announcing New Contributors to your NORML Daily Audio Stash
Tuesday, November 17th, 2009 at 2:47 pm | By: Radical Russ
I am so excited to break the news that we have four new contributors to help bring you the Daily Audio Stash! In response to my call for volunteer music editors I received a lot of applications and picked from the best of them to give you our new lineup:
Weekday Editor-in-Charge Roots Monday
(Blues / Country / Folk / Jazz)Cannabis Karri Electric Tuesday
(Dance / New Age / House / Electronica)Sahra Kant Irie Wednesday
(Reggae / Ska / Calypso / Latin)Johnny Reeferseed Groovin’ Thursday
(Rap / Hip-Hop / R&B / Funk)John Doe Rockin’ Friday
(Rock / Metal / Punk / Jam)“Radical” Russ These fine Stashers will be finding the best 420-friendly music on the web and bringing it to us each week. You already know me and Cannabis Karri. Sahra Kant joins us from Massachusetts; I met her up at the Boston Freedom Rally this year. Johnny Reeferseed’s music has been featured on the Stash before. And John Doe is the man behind John Doe Radio, another fine internet podcast.
But just because we have music editors that doesn’t mean you can’t still be involved. If you have a band or have found a tune that you think should be on the Stash, just email it to me at stash@norml.org and I’ll pass it along to our editors.
Also join me in welcoming Amanda Bannon to our lienup of contributors. Amanda is getting college credit as an intern working for me in NORML Chapter Outreach. She will begin by reviving our dormant “Politicians on Pot” series, where you send us the replies you get from your elected officials when you write to them about ending marijuana prohibition. If you haven’t written to your elected officials, visit our Take Action center and get started. Now that the AMA has reversed its position on smoked cannabis as medicine, many of these congresspeople will need to update their form letter! Write your congressperson and send that reply back to us at stash@norml.org.
