Inpho Interviews Carl Sagan, Part Two: Weed

(Cartoon of Inpho's spaceship in outer space.) Inpho: Hey, welcome to the podcast, everybody! And I can't believe I'm saying this, but...
(Close up of Carl Sagan in the guest chair.) Inpho: It's friggin' Carl Sagan! CS: Great to be here, Inpho!
(Inside the podcast studio with Inpho and Carl Sagan.) Inpho: I just can't believe you're actually here. It's like a dream come true. CS: Well, that's very nice.
Inpho: It's just that I've been kind of freaking out lately, you know, with everything in the news, and everything out here in space, and... uh... uh...
Inpho: I just don't know what to do! I think I might be going insane, and... and... AAAGGGHHH!!!
(Close up on Inpho looking shocked and scared.) CS: Inpho, Inpho, you need to calm down. Relax. Here...
(Close up on Carl Sagan lighting up a joint.) CS: Why don't you join me in smoking some of this marijuana?
Inpho: Marijuana? But aren't you a scientist? CS: Doesn't mean I can't get high. In fact, I've observed that smoking cannabis has a lot of benefits.
Carl Sagan blows a cloud of smoke inside which is an image of the stars in outerspace plus a spaceship, planet earth, and a large eyeball looking down on a marijuana leaf. CS: I am convinced that there are genuine and valid levels of perception available with cannabis which are, through the defects of our society and our educational system, unavailable to us without such drugs.
(Inpho inside a classroom blocked from thoughts of the universe by a wave of blah blah blah from his teacher.) CS: Cannabis brings us an awareness that we spend a lifetime being trained to overlook and put out of our minds.
(Close up on Inpho smoking the joint.) CS: Smoking cannabis can help you widen your perspective. And it can help ease those nerves a little, too.
(Inpho passed the joint back to Carl Sagan.) Inpho: Wow, that's pretty amazing. Kind of crazy that this is against the law.
(Close up on Carl Sagan looking stern.) CS: Crazy indeed! The illegality of cannabis is outrageous, and an imediment to the full utilization of a drug which helps to produce serenity and insight so desparately needed in this increasingly mad and dangerous world.
Inpho: Well, I think I've calmed down a bit now. CS: Good, because I'd like to move on to another topic. One that I believe may be behind some of that anxiety of yours.
(Close up on Inpho, his eyes filled up with binary code.) CS: Information overload!
