Cannabis, comic books, and loud music are all a means of escape. Plus, certain strains really amplify how we experience art, stories, and songs. So it's no surprise that if you’re into comics, fantasy novels, or rock music, research suggests you’re also probably into smoking pot. Of course, getting lost in comics and jumping in a mosh pit each requires a different kind of buzz. To help their fans have the ideal experience no matter what they're doing, the iconic fantasy/sci-fi brand Heavy Metal has started pairing its adult comics, graphic novels, and collectible cards with experience-focused cannabis strains, grown by Berkshire Roots in western Massachusetts. In this episode, host Brit Smith sits down with Tommy Coriale, President and Head of Studio at Heavy Metal, to chat about the history of Heavy Metal magazine and its super-stoner 80s movie, how they figured out that so many HM fans also love pot, and how cannabis enhances our connection with mind-bending, experimental art as we see in their books.They also discuss smoking to enjoy live concerts, how pairing movies and marijuana can help us get lost in a story, and Tommy explains what kinds of futuristic stoner-experiences Heavy Metal has in store with Augmented Reality for fans who smoke their top-notch weed.Get your issue of Different Leaf magazine at DifferentLeaf.comFollow us on social media @DifferentLeaf and find host Brit Smith @BrittheBritish
