In this week's extra special episode of the Web's Favourite Cannabis Podcast, the Dopefiend is in celebratory mood as he explains why the British government's decision to reclassify Cannabis as a class B drug could actually mean the de facto decriminalization of Cannabis use, then touches base with friend of the Dopecast Uncle Weed for his slant on last week's Canadian election and how it will effect Cannabis users, as well as some comment on the growing trend for anti-Cannabis policies in Canada, drawing on the recent story of the raw foodists harassed at Toronto Airport for carrying hemp chocolate, with some input from regular contributor HudsonRulez, and also some chat about the impending US presidential election as well as further developments on Uncle Weed's crusade to spread the true history of hemp and Cannabis in Japan. In the VaporLounge, a fresh bag of Jack Herer and Blueberry salad and some tunes provided by bona fide Dopetribe musicians Hey Negrita, puts the Dopefiend in the mood to connect with The Grow Report forum's latest addition to the psychedelic podcast sphere and talks controversy and chaos with Cody from Black Light In The Attic, then finally hits the emails, starting with a Cannabis trip report from Brixtroll, Tirikite Toker defends his donation of vapo-poop to his smoker buddies, and talks more about the Cannabis scene in Japan. In this week's Cannabis News, the pollution caused by guerrilla grows on American National Parkland, yet another nasty side-effect of the War on Drugs, the manufacturers of the Whizzinator face the music over helping stoners cheat drug tests, two scary stories suggesting Australia's government are becoming increasingly Orwellian, and finally, while the global financila crash continues, some stoners have already eschewed cash and are turning to our secret sacrament as currency!
