Hello Everyone… and welcome to the penultimate episode of Chris and Reggie’s Cosmic Treadmill. This is the final episode from the formerly Patreon Exclusive “After Dark” Collection… and, it’s not nearly as… uh, I think the word I’ve been using is “spicy” as the prior three.
Still… mature themes abound… lots of talk about drugs and the history of drugs in the United States.
I hope you enjoy!
Greetings, smokers, tokers, and midnight chokers! In this episode of Cosmic Treadmill After Dark, we look at one of Reggie’s favorite underground comix, The Collected Adventures of the Fabulous Furry Freak Bros. #1 by Gilbert Shelton, first published in 1971 by Rip-Off Press! There’s Shelton’s bio, and some info about Rip-Off Press, and then we go through every panel of this 48-page zonkfest, attempting to keep it cool around the fuzz. After a few words from Gilbert Shelton himself, Chris and Reggie look at the history of some drugs in the United States–and marvel at the punitive measures against them! It’s a (formerly) patron-only exclusive episode, so feel free to bogart it all you like.
