Cheech Is Not My Real Name
Cheech Is Not My Real Name: ...But Don't Call Me Chong | Cheech Marin
4 posts | 4 read | 2 to read
The long-awaited memoir from a counterculture legend. Cheech Marin came of age at an interesting time in America and became a self-made counterculture legend with his other half, Tommy Chong. This insightful memoir delves into how Cheech dodged the draft, formed one of the most successful comedy duos of all time, became the face of the recreational drug movement with the film Up in Smoke, forged a successful solo career with roles in The Lion King and, more recently, Jane the Virgin, and became the owner of the most renowned collection of Chicano art in the world. Written in Cheech's uniquely hilarious voice, this memoir will take you to new highs.

I met Cheech Marin back in 2017 during his book signing. He was a funny and a very sweet man. He took the time to speak with each of his fans.
I loved learning about Cheech's childhood, his career during & after Chong, and his involvement with the Chicano culture. I listened to the audio along with reading this book, which made it quite enjoyable. Cheech is a natural story teller and he is much more than his "Cheech & Chong" character.
