Their latest issue is out now and features more dope queer stoners like King Princess, Angel Olson, and Laganja Estranga.Brit talks to Mac and Ben about how they came together and envisioned Buds Digest, how NYC's gay culture influences the stories and aesthetic of the magazine, and how they get so many awesome queer stoners to spark up and open up.That's it for our winter 2023 season!
