Welcome to Air Tight 110, your ultimate source for the latest buzz in #entertainment, #music, #art, and the cannabis industry. 

First up, the 2024 #California State Fair in #Sacramento is making history by allowing #cannabis sales and on-site consumption for the first time ever.  This landmark decision means that fairgoers 21 and older can now purchase and consume cannabis in designated areas.  This move aims to destigmatize cannabis and highlight its role in California's rich agricultural heritage.  The #fair runs from July 12 to 28, so don't miss this unique opportunity to explore and enjoy cannabis in a whole new setting.

In what might be the quirkiest news yet, environmentalists are sounding the alarm on a potential #lobster population explosion in the oceans.  According to these reports, we need to eat more lobsters to keep their numbers in check.  While this story could be fake #news, it certainly gives a humorous twist to our environmental challenges.  Whether true or not, it's a delicious problem that many of us wouldn't mind tackling.

Mark your calendars for the next #Puff n Paint event on July 20 at Wheelhouse Lounge in Port Hueneme, CA.  This time, it's the 'Glow Paint Edition,' promising an unforgettable night of creativity and fun with #glow-in-the-dark paint.  It's the perfect blend of art and cannabis, offering a unique and vibrant experience for all attendees.

This episode also features an eclectic mix of music from artists like Drug Cabin, #Kimbra, Modest Mouse, Steele Pulse, and many more.  Tune in for a diverse range of sounds that will keep you entertained and grooving throughout the show.
