55: Trappers Delight

History of Lean, UGK and the Purple Cough Syrup Epidemic

The conversation shifts to the history of "lean," tracing its origins to Texas and the group UGK (Pimp C and Bun B). Moe discusses how the drug became a global epidemic through hip-hop influence, noting its presence in the Trayvon Martin case and its eventual removal from the market by companies like Actavis. The hosts also speculate on the marketing of purple-colored sleep aids like Z-Quil to younger demographics.
