On this week's episode of the Web's Favourite Cannabis Podcast, the Dopefiend talks about the schizophrenic nature of America's policy on Cannabis, and how the introduction of Medical Marijuana dispensaries in states with legal Medical Marijuana has reduced teen use of Cannabis as well as relieved suffering. Following a quick mention for the great Queerninja, now back on the forum and in the Virtual Vapour Lounge for a limited time, the Dopefiend begins this week's emails with a view on Israel's Cannabis scene and how "hydro" is on the rise over there, his unsuccessful struggle to find a vaporizer in Amsterdam, and a brief report on a hostel-based shroom trip, then the Dopefiend heads into the VaporLounge for a taste of this year's Cannabis Cup winner G-13 Haze and a chat about the Big Chill gathering of the Dopefiend.co.uk family, where we have a huge communal tent booked for extra vape-ready comfort, followed by a musical interlude from Dave Osborn. Afterwards, the Dopefiend adresses an email from the Wannabe Pothead, leading to a brief chat about how to begin psychedelic exploration and a mention for portable lighter-powered vapo-pipe the vaporgenie, then responds to an email about how a return to Cannabis after a break has resulted in paranoia and night terror, then a report on how the law deal with Cannabis use in the state of Virginia and a short Salvia trip report. In the Cannabis News, Truthmissile emails a study comparing deaths from prescription drug abuse to those caused by illegal drugs, the Indianapolis cops busted for trafficking herb, why there was less Lucy than normal at this year's Bonnaroo festival, and why you shouldn't eat your herb if you're pulled over. Email your comments, questions and suggestions to mail@dopefiend.co.uk, send us a voicemail and drop by our Skype Virtual VaporLounge, and check out the forum.
