Madison on the Air #51 - Hot Copy - "The Weed of Violence"(010926)

The OG, king of them all, PSA on drugs is “Reefer Madness.” But those filmmakers weren’t the only ones warning their audience against the evils of marijuana use! “Hot Copy” – a 1940’s radio series featuring a hard-hitting female reporter – decided to make their own campaign against the dangerous narcotic. Reporter Anne Rogers agrees to go undercover to try and catch a "Mary Jane Peddler” who has been selling to teenagers with deadly consequences. Madison, a… er… casual user of this “weed of violence,” goes along to expose her dealer after he doubled his prices. Will the two women stop this vile menace to their community, or will they get really, really baked? CROSSOVER WITH “HOT COPY RADIO THEATER”!! Learn more about your ad choices.
