The Godfather of Glass

The earliest ceremonial smoking devices date back 2,400 years, to ancient Scythian tribal chiefs who blazed hashish out of solid gold bongs. While the history of the modern “functional art glass” movement started in the 1970s, with Bob Snodgrass, the Deadhead hippie whose innovative heady glass pipes and bongs gave rise to today's $100,000 dab rigs. In an episode recorded live at the Helium Comedy Club in Portland, Oregon, we celebrate the incredible life and legacy of "Snoddy"—the Godfather of Glass. So grab some dank nugs, hop on the bus, and get ready to meet the alchemical wizard who changed everything about the way we get high. Help Make This Podcast Possible!
