On this week's episode of the Web's Favourite Cannabis Podcast, the Dopefiend reveals news of the first reliable study into the effects of ecstasy on the brain, which shows that there are no real harms caused by the pure form of the drug, and talks about the injustice done to former chief UK drug adviser Professor David Nutt, who was fired for suggesting the same thing. Turning to this week's emails, the Dopefiend talks about joining the vaporizer revolution and how some stoners are still angrily resistant of the new toking technology, and where the real harm lies in heroin addiction. Heading into the VaporLounge, the Dopefiend gives a mention for David Presti's Drugs and the Brain lectures, before celebrating the arrival of some incredible organic Blue Cheese in his stash box and firing up the iolite vaporizer to have a first taste, then updating the DopeTribe on the bizarre story concerning the disappearance of the Gremlin of Ganja, G13. Following a musical interlude from DopeTribe elder Safron, the Dopefiend talks about the Light Up the Sky campaign set up by HomeGrown Outlaw, which will see the earth's skies riddled with sky lanterns on the evening of 4/20. Next, we hear from ioliteknight and others testing out the iolite's vapor optimizer at this year's Entheogenesis Australis. In this week's Cannabis News: A new poll suggests Americans are in favour of legalization, Scotland becomes an international exporter of cannabis, Canada's navy participate in a major US-led cocaine bust, A car accident victim gets a $5000-grow op courtesy of Quebec's auto insurance protection agency, Salvia faces a canadian ban, a New Zealand mulitple sclerosis sufferer will go on hunger strike if imprisoned for his use of cannabis, the Danish government wins the right to crush Freetown Christiania, the UK's Legalize Cannabis Alliance elect Peter Reynolds as their new leader, and how the Chilean miners were more like "pot-holers" after toking up on smiggled marijuana during their ordeal.
