Play
 
Oregon, Alaska and Washington, D.C. have now legalized recreational marijuana, and over a dozen states approve its medical use. Since it first crossed the border into the U.S., pot has been a polarizing issue, blamed for violence in the '30s, sloth in the '60s, and experiencing a popularity surge in recent history. We'll look at marijuana culture past and present this hour.

Guests:

Christopher Ingraham, reporter for the Washington Post
Rick Cusick, associate editor at High Times Magazine
Isaac Campos-Costero, professor of Latin American History at the University of Cincinnati
