Mon, 29 June 2009 On the Web's Favourite Cannabis Podcast this week, the Dopefiend begins by talking about this year's UN World Drug Report which for the first time in history makes the incredibly significant move of praising the decriminalization policies of Portugal, designates decriminalization legal under international law, and accepts that prohibition has increased global crime. The Dopefiend also looks at US Drug Czar Gil Kerlikowske's lacklustre response to the report and considers the potential fallout. Hitting the emails, the Dopefiend talks about Star Trek, The Hangover, the rumours of a new model of the iolite portable vaporizers and whether the minimal flaws in the original design are cause for concern, AK47, some interesting research into cannabis, the munchies and heart disease, Amsterdam's stoner paradise Haarlemmerstraat, the etiquette of communal vaporizers in Amsterdam, and we hear from Odee who drops a voicemail into the Dopefiend's inbox. Following some congratulations from long time DopeTriber Ned Fletcher, the Dopefiend heads into the VaporLounge to talk about his recent wedding, and vape a celebratory bag of All-Star Sativa Salad vapour featuring Sour Diesel, AK47 and John Sinclair, after which we hear from G13, Squidgy Sid and Max Freakout reporting live from the wedding itself. After a musical interlude in tribute to the late Michael Jackson, the Dopefiend talks about the Bauhaus movement, why he feels TV is a valid art form, Francois Toke Dizzle drops a voicemail, we hear about German hemp beer, growing cannabis in a freezer and the strength of the edible cannabis experience. Gruffdiver gives some in-depth analysis into the facts around cannabis potency and how it was used as an excuse for cannabis reclassification in the UK without any firm evidence of its potential to harm, then the Dopefiend hits the Cannabis News, including an update on the erroneous raid on a Maryland mayor's home which resulted in deputies shooting his two dogs, Spokane heralds the establishment of its first Medical Marijuana dispensaries, Australia and New Zealand are named as the world's top Cannabis consumers, and a New Zealand man celebrates by sparking up in parliament, and a New Jersey man accidentally texts a police officer instead of his dealer.

Sun, 21 June 2009 This week on the show that just keeps on growing & growing Zandor is one step closer to putting installing 3000w of HPS in their flower room. Zandor designs a better way to attach cool tubes to track light movers. Zandor’s design keeps your cool tubes (both homemade and store purchased) horizontal to your plants and the air flowing freely to maintain cool temperatures. This is the first part on how to build a track light cool tube assembly. Mrs.Z has the news & Information you need to know to keep you informed and active for this week...well for the most part anyway, that pesky vapor bag kept calling Zandor's name.

This special edition Beyond the Basin podcast contains two readings from the
novel and features original music composed on the wooden flute, Peruvian Quena
and Sansula. Synopsis: In a shallow basin of water, separated from a vast ocean by a narrow isthmus, two children play secretly. Behind them lies a dense rainforest, within which two communities wait divided. One is an undiscovered shamanic tribe deep in the forest, the other a Franciscan mission. Both children were born into the tribe, but only one has stayed. Half-way across the world, a young journalist follows them in his dreams, waking up each morning with no recollection of what he has seen. In his waking life, he begins to feel the tug of an unfamiliar and alien emotion, something telling him to leave his life and seek something else. Beyond the Basin is an exploration of the beauty and complexity of the psychedelic experience. Exploring the social, metaphysical and spiritual implications of humanity's communion with medicinal plants, it seeks to unravel some of the mystery around these amazing substances. Beyond the Basin will also be the MAPS 'Gift of the Month' in July, which is sent out free to donators. Any listeners, especially in the US, can also get the novel by donating and in doing so aid future psychedelic research. See Maps.org for more details.Download this podcast here: http://media.libsyn.com/media/dopecast/BeyondtheBasinpodcast1.mp3 To get a copy of Beyond the Basin, visit http://www.beyondthebasin.com Comments[0] | ||
Mon, 15 June 2009 On this week's episode of the Web's Favourite Cannabis Podcast, the Dopefiend talks about the terrifying news that emerged last week in the United Kingdom of London police officers accused of "waterboarding" suspects in a Cannabis smuggling case. Hitting the emails, we hear an update from Dopecast regular Samwise Ganja about his recent eye injury and how he's recovering, whether certain drugs can inhibit the high from cannabis, there's more iolite praise, the Dopefiend gives his verdict on Terminator Salvation and Drag Me To Hell, some talk about the origins of "420", more on the strange half-sleep half-wake state discussed previously on the Dopecast and the benefits of taking a tolerance break. Heading into the VaporLounge, the Dopefiend fires up his iolite for a first taste of some fresh Sage N' Sour vapour and a musical interlude created by listener Wayne. Back from the VaporLounge, the Dopefiend reads an iolite story from Evil Manatee, whether vaporizing is good for the lungs or not, tripping with family, whether to tell your parents about your cannabis use, a story from Johnny McPot about stealth growing in his mum's backyard, and some support for the VaporBros vaporizer. In the Cannabis News this week, Marc Emery announces he will plead guilty at his looming extradition hearing, on advice from his lawyer, addicts are more likely to complete addiciton treatment if they use cannabis, Hollywood hottie and Megan Fox lends her support to the legalization movemnent.
