My short bio: Hey, SantaChong here, and I got my password back! The original dude we hired saw the post go viral, thanks for the help Reddit!

So much has changed over the past few years, and I thought it was time for another AMA. First off, congrats to many states for legalizing! Second, I just ate an edible about an hour ago so get your questions in before my answers become mumbled gibberish - the clock is ticking.

Recently I’ve been chillin in my house in the Pacific Palisades in Los Angeles, spending time with my dogs Captain and Oso. I always have the news on, watching the dumpster fire white house be a dumpster fire. But I’ve kept busy too, we’re working hard to make Chong’s Choice a household name, expanding beyond pre-rolls and flower into edibles, carts, and more. We also came out with a Daily High Club bong box for the holidays, and keep those red eyes peeled for more new stuff in the works!!

Just like before, I will answer any questions you guys have, raw and unfiltered. Now let’s get to it, ask me anything motherfuckers!

Oh and here’s my shameless plug: Instagram:@heytommychong Twitter: @tommychong Facebook: Tommy Chong duhhh

EDIT 2:36 PST: Thanks for tuning in guys! I've gotta get back to watching the news and hanging with my dogs

ya_boy_porter12 karma

Hey Tommy! Stocked about this AMA, and can't wait to try Chong's Choice. Two questions: 1) If you had to pick, who would you invite to your 'stoner' Last Supper? 2) What's something you've had since before you first got high with Cheech that you still have and will never get rid of under any circumstance (if you can remember back that far :p)

SantaChong36 karma

Last supper: I'd have to say Michael Chau cause he's a good cook

I've got a watchband that my dad had made out of a piece of steel from a fighter plane from when he was in the war that I got when he had died that i've hung on to
