Baca is joined this week by Will Evans, development manager for Alpine Wellness, a pot shop in Telluride, Colorado. The weed scene in the southwest part of the state is pretty mellow, as one might expect it to be, yet vibrant.

The second guests are the creative team behind the documentary “Rolling Papers,” director Mitch Dickman and director of photography Zack Armstrong.

Their film about legalized marijuana and print journalism in Colorado follows reporters at The Post and The Cannabist who covered the first year of recreational marijuana sales in Colorado. The film debuts March 15 at the South by Southwest Film Festival in Austin, Texas.
