On the first Dopecast from the Dope Den since the festivities of this year's DopeStock in Amsterdam, the Web's Favourite Cannabis Commentator, the Dopefiend, once again focuses on the spiralling confusion and contradiction surrounding Cannabis Law in the United States despite the Obama Administration's promises of a new approach, with news of what looks like two steps back by the Department of Justice, neatly timed to coincide with new drug czar Gil Kerlikowske's tentative single step forward. Just before he hits the emails, the Dopefiend puts a call out for donations as this week's income will all go towards the Man with the Velvet Voicebox, Lefty, in anticipation of his impending return to the Dopefiend.co.uk Podcast Network, then tackles such diverse subjects as whether cannabis psychosis can be strain-specific, why all stoners should conduct their own research into how different strains affect them and how to avoid a Squidgy Sid-style whitey. Next, the Dopefiend heads into the VaporLounge to take a taste of some G-Bomb, and talk about a recent chance encounter with Dopetriber Herodian at the DopeCave, this year's extraordinary DopeStock and memories of the Canal Cruise and the White Cheese, and the Dopefiend's plans for surviving a couple of very busy months approaching in his private life and how it'll affect the Dopecast. After a musical interlude from TirikiteToker's musical outfit Tibet2Timbuk2, the Dopefiend returns with talk of whether he is naturally an introvert or an extrovert, whether cannabis use is incompatible with Christianity and we hear from DopeTriber Snail about pro-pot documentary Waiting to Inhale and the legal situation surrounding medical Marijuana in his native San Diego. In this week's Cannabis News, a new survey show the most support in history for legalizing cannabis in the United States, further developments in the Marc Emery extradition case, why 30 dutch cannabis coffeeshops are set to become members-only establishments, former Mexican President Vicente Fox calls for the decriminalization of cannabis, and Snoop Dogg comes to the rescue of an aide facing charges for taking delivery of some prime BC Bud.
