On this week's episode of the Web's Favourite Cannabis Podcast, the Dopefiend talks about last week's announcement by the Attorney General of the United States that medical marijuana despensaries would no longer be targeted by federal agencies, and how it's opened the doors for many more states to feel out the possibilities of legalizing medical cannabis and make recreational users a low priority. Following a round-up of the moves towards decriminalization across the US, and a shout out for the many dopetribe members who have signed their name in memory of a late member of the cannabis community, the Dopefiend hits the emails, starting with a couple on the subject of how excessive cannabis use can do more harm than good, how maintaining the balance between your use of various plant and chemical allies and your everyday life is important, and why the plant itself is never to blame for such ill effects, why vaporizer uses almost always abandon their previous love of smoking once they become accustomed to the cleaner high and fresher flavours of vape, and whether you can really get a satisfying body hogh using vaporizers like the Volcano. Heading into the VaporLounge, the Dopefiend samples a tasty touch of Grapefruit Diesel in his Volcano while talking about the ever-nearing Dopestock festivities hitting Amsterdam on April 20th, tells some happy news concerning friend of the Dopecast and head honcho of the Cannabis College Lorna Clay, gives the final details of our Cannabis Canal Cruise organized by DopeTribe newcomer DutchBoy, then hits an email from this week's contributing musician Lovecraft23 about the battle between truth and propaganda on the front line of the decriminalization movement. Following a musical interlude, the Dopefiend talks briefly about the name change of the I-Inhale to "iolite", whether cannabis or entheogen use can worsen clinical depression, and what can be done to counter it and the pleasures of toking before or even during a movie. In this week's Cannabis News, the sports columnist busted for home growing because he bought items from High Times advertisers, Canada's "Prince of Pot" claims the Canadian government are running him out of town in preparation for the Olympics, authorities suspect a massive Canada-US smuggling operation employing helicopters to carry cannabis and other drugs across the border, Massachussets clamps down on stoners taking advantage of their recent decriminalization of small amounts of Cannabis by smoking in public, and a British teacher takes on the Cannabis laws in the High Court.
