is now one of my favorite hobbies. why did i never do this before? it's so relaxing, you get to know more about the world around you, and i tend to get so drawn into whatever they're talking about at the moment because there are always a lot of great storytellers on NPR. makes for a great 25 minutes. anyway, i have a question; do most people find NPR boring while stoned? cause i must admit, although i love doing it i wouldn't necessarily turn on NPR on a blunt ride with my friends, i assume they'd be bored :/

Everyone likes different music.

NPR isn't music (at least i haven't heard music on it?) it's like, news stories and interviews and stuff like that. that's why i pointed it out, i kinda like listening to it more than music because the stories really draw you in when you're smoking.

I find storys within music to be the best shit to listen to while stoned, it has so much more of a meaning.
Like rap, but non of this American gangster bullshit, brit rap is the best.

LOL british rap is more often than not wankster music.

I personally like smoking joints in thick forest listening to sigur ros. To each his own though

Jethro Tull > rap

1) Blunts to the dome
1.5) Turn on NPR rollin' squad deep
2) ???
3) Curb stomped/raped, or both, at the same time

You have an interesting weekend planned there.

LOL british rap is more often than not wankster music.

Your fucking faggot man, i bet you listen to black guys saying words to feed there crack habit, and its all fucking sweet cause there talking about guns n hoes n crack, and you think its heaps cool.
The peeps i listen to are actually saying something, they do it for the love, not the cred, or crack, these people actually make there music, they put time and effort into it, unlike the gangster fuckwits who say a couple of words that rhyme and say how much crack they smoke.
And then there are the white trash that listen to this piss in a feeble attempt at looking cool or someshit, so shut the fuck up.

I listen to NPR all the time but when i'm smoking i listen to it's sister station here in the twin cities that player all different kinds of music and gives you news every hour or something like that.

MPR and NPR ftw but meh no difference with or without pot.

You say it so nonchalantly.

..could be the difference between getting your teeth kicked in or an extra smoke session.

Pick wisely.

This American Life is a great show.

Probation be damned.. I need to start smoking again.

Isn't it like a talk radio kind of thing?I listen to rush limbaugh/sean hannity for talk radio entertainment. If you dont know who that is they are like far right conservative radio hosts. Im a republican, but not a hardcore conservative like they are. Strictly entertainment.

NPR fucking rules.


However Rush Limbaugh can suck a fucking dick.

You say it so nonchalantly.

yeah no one's gonna kick a bitch in the face for that.

sorry i like to know what's happening in the world.

Dood. America started hiphop? how can you say that. You need to listen to some good shit before you say that. Your just seeing one side of it and thats the bullshit music videos on tv. That wouldnt even be considered rap. Repeating the same shit about hos money and dubs/cars is not rap.
Listen to some good shit:
a tribe called quest
jurassic 5
quannum(blacklicious, dj shadow,etc)
mos def
TUPAC
BIGGY
THE ROOTS
Atmosphere
talib Kweli(may be spoelled wrong)
the old gangsta rap

good hiphop djs;(tunrtablism started in the US)
cut chemist
dj shadow
numark
dj craze
peanut butter wolf
GRAND MASTER FLASH(WAS MOTHER FUCKING HIP HOP)
^ this is all i can think of off the top of my head but there are tons more.
THe biggest names come from america man and people all over the world listen to them. I understand the shit they play on the american radio and tv is bullshit but dont base your judgement on that alone because there is so much good shit floating around that goes unheard.

I'm only kidding about getting beat. :p

sorry i like to know what's happening in the world.

And so do I, definitely no problem with that.

It's just something about crankin' NPR while blazed that tickles my funny bone.

Mos Def, Talib Kweli, and Wu Tang own your shit.

Either I just put on some rap like Lil Wayne, Dr. Dre, Nas, Mobb Deep and that kind of shit or some rock music like Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Bohemian Rhapsody is the shit so is Freebird. Music just seems better while high.

I like NPR when I'm high but honestly there is nothing better than listening to a Firesign Theatre CD. You will become the bizarre and hilarious stories, skits, and songs, it's crazy.

Some NPR stations do have music, i think it depends on the station. The one around where i live has a jazz program every weeknight. It's good shit, plus isn't praire home companion on NPR?

btw, the little fresh air diddy the play annoys the fuck out of me

If your one of the people who like to listen to speeches and such when stoned... Check out matrixmasters.com for the podcasts.

lol @ british fag rap

Mos Def, Talib Kweli, and Wu Tang own your shit.

One of my friends has actually worked with Talib Kweli before.

I kinda know what ya mean OP, I love smokin a B on a sunny day driving around in my caddy listening to some good music...

What do I like even more? about 12-16mg of Dilaudid and kicking back listening to the audio copies of Stephen King's "The Dark Tower" series on my iPod, I can get lost in a light nod and the vividly imaginative storyline brought to life by S. King's detailed descriptions, good way to kill noddin time, love it....

Why yes the black "afro" americans started hiphop/rap, and you posted all American rappers/groups, am I misreading you or something?

And about the british rap stuff, ever heard The Streets, wtf kinda shit (and I do mean shiat) is that!

One of my friends has actually worked with Talib Kweli before.

He is one lucky bastard. I'd have given anything to sit in at the Black Star sessions. Or any of either of their solo sessions.

So British rap has less bullshit then American rap? The most famous british rapper is fucking MIA ffs

89.3 The Current for the win. Great tunes, play lots of great local hip hop too.

lots of people around here go on "blunt routes" on the outskirts of town.

it's just chill. no one ever gets pulled over. if you go a few miles out in the right directions, you go through miles and miles of rolling hills. no one really is around. i can recall at least once where we have stopped in the middle of the road and just rolled a few joints and no one was around for the good part of an hour.

NPR is all i listen to on the radio

everything else is crap

Any decent Minnesotan listens to 89.3 The Current (MPR). It owns, sober or high. B96 is shit rap, KDWB plays the same songs over and over again, Cities 97 has a boner for U2 and the Fray, 93X wants to suck on Linkin Parks cock, and since Drive 105 is gone, the Current is the only option.

But yeah NPR is cool high...so is reading though.

damn i miss drive 105

all those raido things have truth, but i'd be mad if i read that and didn't know what you were talking about.



others:
mpr.org then click on The Current.

NPR is always kickass, especially when smoking.

And for anyone from Chicago/surrounding areas (I've even picked it up across the way in Michigan) check out 89.5 or http://www.vocalo.org. It's mostly listener submitted content (if not all, I'm not sure) and is a lot of stories or interviews interspersed with pretty good music.

Funny how most people tried to hijack this thread to talk about what they like to listen to when on a blunt cruise...

But HELL YEAH to the thread starter. Obviously, it isnt what I do all the time but it is a great way to have philosophical high, which are my favorite anyway. With the right crew, a bleezie and NPR can turn a lazy afternoon into a serious discovery of understanding.

And to someone else, in most parts of the US there seem to be two NPRs available, one normally a local state university deal that plays all interviews, investigative reports, and maybe some BBC, the second is a mix of the aforementioned and classical music.

You forgot Lil Wayne
