It is a host only episode. Talking about the changes in “vice laws”.

Without real detail, the FDA changed the rules, without grandfathering in those who were already legal. Mason Rottinghaus reports his troubles.
Illinois just legalized marijuana, Indiana has table games and dealers at the Racinos, including our neighboring Anderson casino. Massive regulation just came down on the vape community, but local mom and pops were carved out.
Mayor Pete called decriminalizing all drugs. Quite an interesting week for personal liberty.Chase Peyton, and Chris Guffey are finally facebook friends, after the NFL Fantasy Football season concluded.
