Marijuana Stories: Meet The Real Nancy Botwin From ‘Weeds’ (Video)
November 11, 2014
Well, well… Dr. Dina (former D.A.R.E. kid, ha!)… has been taking care of her patients with recommendations of medical marijuana – patients like Snoop Dogg – waaaaay before Showtime put out the show ‘Weeds.’

With marijuana now being largely legal in Oregon, Alaska, Colorado, and Washington, Showtime’s crime sitcom no longer seems like outlandish fiction. In this episode, VICE tracks down a real-life Nancy Botwin—Dr. Dina, medical weed consultant to stars like Snoop Dogg and 2 Chainz.
