[ dude, where's my comedy club? ]
Comedian Doug Benson is afraid of broken dreams as much as broken bongs. Many may know him as one of the floating heads on VH1's Best Week Ever or as a contestant on NBC's Last Comic Standing. But he's just as well-known outside comedy circles in a similar field: Benson is a world-class stoner. Anchoring the doc Super High Me, Benson took on Morgan Spurlock's conceit with a darker shade of green. Instead of investigating the war on obesity, Benson investigates the war on marijuana. Benson took a 30-day break from weed and then smoked for 30 days straight to compare his physical, mental and spiritual differences. How do we get his job again? Benson continues his research, when he'll bring his pot, paraphernalia and hopefully some jokes. (Check out Critical Mass for a Q&A with Benson.)
