We’ve heard of people planting trees or scattering ashes in a favorite park, but smoking your dead dad? That’s a new one. YouTuber and baking queen Rosanna Pansino just dropped her podcast’s first episode, and it’s not about cake—oh no, it’s about cannabis.
Specifically, cannabis grown from her dad’s ashes. If that doesn’t leave you gobsmacked, I don’t know what will. Some people keep urns; Rosanna, apparently, rolls joints. Wild.

Rosanna Pansino’s dad, lovingly nicknamed “Papa Pizza”, wasn’t just the man behind the apron; he was a cornerstone of her family’s life. Tragically, he passed away five years ago after a battle with leukemia, leaving a void that the Pansino family has deeply felt ever since.
But Papa Pizza wasn’t just any dad—he had a wicked sense of humor and a bit of a rebellious streak, which is probably why his dying wish wasn’t exactly conventional.
Before his passing, Papa Pizza dropped a bombshell: he wanted his ashes to help grow a marijuana plant. And here’s the kicker—he wanted his family to smoke it. Yeah, you read that right. Most people ask for a memorial bench; Papa Pizza was out here planning a posthumous puff-puff-pass.
Initially, the family brushed it off as a joke, but the idea actually stuck. Five years later, they decided to make it happen in his honor.

Okay, So No, They Didn’t Smoke THE Ashes
Let’s clear the air (pun intended): no one lit up Papa Pizza’s actual ashes. That’s not how it works, thankfully. Instead, Rosanna Pansino partnered with a legit cannabis grower in California, who mixed a small amount of the ashes into soil used to grow the plant. After harvesting, the family rolled up some very extra pink-paper joints, making the tribute both fabulous and sentimental.
Rosanna Pansino spilled all the details on her podcast Rodiculous—and honestly, it’s the kind of chaotic, heartwarming story we didn’t know we needed. She described it as emotional but ultimately healing, bringing her family closer together while celebrating her dad’s very unique legacy.
Let’s be real: “I smoked my dead dad” is not something you expect to hear, ever. But when you dig into the story, it’s actually… kinda touching? It’s not every day you see a family honor their loved one’s memory in such an on-brand way. RIP Papa Pizza—your legacy is truly one for the books. Or should we say… the blunts?
