This week San Antonio Current readers just couldn’t get enough “legal weed.”
By that we mean our most-read story of the week was about Delta-8, the THC-containing hemp product Texas regulators recently placed on their list of illegal drugs. In the case of the much-read and -shared story, the news was that a hemp-research company’s lab tests revealed that much of the Delta-8 now on the market is above the legal limit of THC allowed under federal law.
Beyond that, readers took the time to read up on plenty of nutty Texas politics as well as an interview with Nicholas Gonzalez, the San Antonio native who stars in the new NBC series Le Brea.
So, like, put that in your pipe and smoke it, man.
