Dopefiend.co.uk : The Cannabis Podcast Network (The Dopecast)

On this year's special Christmas Day Dopecast, the Dopefiend is in a fiendishly festive mood as he settles down to a serious Christmas morning vape session, starting things off with an I-Inhale
packed with New York City Diesel and a chat about what makes this time of year so stoner-friendly, especially with the added bonus of portable vaping this year, how some stoners are explaining away
their I-Inhales to confused onlookers, then following a communal moment of celebration for all portable vape-fiends, the Dopefiend hits the emails, starting with a message of festive harvest cheer
from long-time listener Podders who's just experienced the benefits of a Volcano for the first time, prompting the Dopefiend to hit the Volcano with some fresh Arjan's Haze, before answering a
commmon question posed by Tosha about the best way to begin your psychedelic adventures and whether Salvia Divinorum or Magic Mushrooms are the best introduction, then talks about the strange view of
cannabis and cannabis users held by some of the uninitiated. Raising a bag of vape in salute, the Dopefiend goes on to send out a special message to our very own Man With the Velvet Voicebox, Lefty,
who's shortly to return with his special brand of music, comedy and chat on the Dopefiend.co.uk Podcast Network, then Floydhead emails with some gripes about his experience with the I-Inhale, with
which he's been unable to have much success, and an appeal for some music of the Dopefiend's own choosing, to which the Dopefiend responds with some fresh Sour Diesel vapour and an extra special
musical interlude from Sufjan Stevens. Back with a bagful of AK47 vapour, the Dopefiend responds to an email from Scott and talks about the "Gateway Theory": the misguided belief that use of Cannabis
is the first step down a slippery slope of hard drug abuse, whether there's any truth to it, and how best to overcome it, then Hemphugger sends in a very fitting story celebrating the season of
goodwill, prompting a celebratory I-Inhale packed with strong flavoursome Brainstorm. Ronan sends Christmas Greetings, then Jabba the Blunt raises the likelihood of legalization at some point in the
future, and the ignorance that holds it back, including the bad press that Salvia Divinorum has recently inspired, ; leading to some talk about why Cannabis and other natural entheogens are reviled
while other modes of consciousness expansion aren't. Finally, the Dopefiend loads up the Volcano with a cocktail of moroccan hash and Aunt Bessie while discussing Barack Obama's recent response to a
flood of pro-legalization activists asking for clarification on his position on Cannabis, and whether it's a sign that there's not much change in the works for us stoners. Don't miss Monday's special
extra helping of Queerninja, then two incredible coollections of DopeTribe Dispatches on the following two Mondays, before the Dopefiend returns to the Dopecast on January 19th. Email

On this special Third Anniversary Episode of the Dopecast, the Dopefiend takes a trip down memory lane, looking at what made 2008 the Dopecast's biggest year ever and the many gatherings of the
DopeTribe that have made it so special, makes a very special announcement concerning our ever-increasing listenership, then hits the emails, beginning with one from Fr00tbat about how the power of
his brand new I-Inhale portable Vaporizer knocked him sideways and forced an early retreat from work, and how he covered for his odd behaviour, then we hear some further information on auto-flowering
strains before the subject of Dopestock 2009 is raised by Im4Cannabis and Captain Tok, prompting the Dopefiend to fire up his I-Inhale and officially open the preparations for our annual celebration
of all things Cannabis while tasting some fresh UK-grown herb before a super-chilled homegrown musical interlude provided by Hey Negrita. The Dopefiend returns with some information concerning an
impending price increase on the I-Inhale and why it's happening, then BrixTroll emails with an extraordinary story about how his stoned state almost left him plastered all over the snow-covered
streets of Norway, then roarcorp drops in a voicemail praising both the Dopefiend Network and the Easy Star All-Stars, then Shoki describes a recent weed-induced panic attack in vivid detail, leading
the Dopefiend to explain how he deals with feelings of anxiety on various substances, then Bronze Apprentice raises the subject of how a closer relationship with Cannabis has turned him into a
hippie! In the Cannabis News, former drug warrior Barry Cooper's new TV show in which he spies on unscrupulous cops conducting raids on a mocked-up Cannabis factory, Michigan passes legal medical
marijuana, but patients are still in limbo until the details are finalized, the Cannabis Tribunal in The Hague decides that legalization is the only sensible option, and Amsterdam's mayor Job Cohen
pushes for a legal supply of Cannabis for Holland's coffeeshops. Don't forget to join the Dopefiend on Christmas Day, and get your festive messages in now! The Chieftain of Chill returns next Monday
with the first of a 2-part Christmas Queerninja extravaganza, so don't miss it! Email mail@dopefiend.co.uk, send us a voicemail and drop by our Skype Virtual VaporLounge, and check out the

On this week's episode of the Web's Favourite Cannabis Podcast, an under-the-weather Dopefiend talks about the US Supreme Court's decision to uphold last year's ruling that the local police in
California and other medical marijuana states are not obliged to help fight the DEA's war on Cannabis, and why it's one step close to a congruent and pragmatic federal approach to medical marijuana,
especially with some law enforcement officers advocating full legalization as a remedy for the global financial crisis. Hitting the emails, the Dopefiend reads a message from show sponsor G13 about
his embracement of the Vaporizer Revolution, stealthgrow sets us straight about the safety and speed of hash oil extraction using butane, John emails about the truth behind the War on Drugs and tells
an extraordinary story about his own suffering at the hands of the outdated drug laws, then Truthmissile alerts us to the work of Professor Juan Cole who exposes how how fixed sentences for cannabis
posession have directly contributed to America's financial problems, C-Dub informs us about his endeavours to educate the masses about cannabis, and Brad tells of his dealers who tried to supplement
their income by robbing a bank, and long time listener to the Dopecast Gouranga Jimmy drops by to tell us about his podcast before the Dopefiend fires up his I-Inhale and reclines on the Big Green
Couch for a bit of herbal respite and a chat about the cold-curing properties of cannabis and how the I-Inhale is going to change the traditional Christmas Day reefer break for a lot of stoners,
leading to the story of how its potent vapour led to more than he bargained for at the UK Hemp Expo. Following a musical interlude by the Sloppy Jacksons, the Dopefiend further extends the deadline
for DopeTribe Dispatches in an effort to get more of your 10-minute audio nuggets in time for Christmas, then reads an email from the Spanish American about his enjoyment of home growing over in
Spain and how the relaxed attitude to cannabis over there contrasts with the laws of the USA, taking us through the success of his recent harvests and talking about his success with auto-flowering
strains. Then the Dopefiend celebrates catching up with the email backlog by calling for new emails from all the DopeTribe listeners, and polishes off the pile with a message from Seattle Stoner. In
the Cannabis News this week, the Dutch ban on magic mushrooms passes, but it won't stop hardcore psychonauts from exploring altered states, Switzerland decides against decriminalizing cannabis
despite the pleas of youth advocacy groups, and the oldest evidence of human use of cannabis is found in China. The email pile is gone, so get your comments, questions and suggestions on next week's

On this week's extra special episode of the Dopecast live from last weekend's UK Hemp Expo in London, the Dopefiend enjoys a rare opportunity to experience total Cannabis freedom in the center of
London and samples the delights of the UK Hemp Expo, joined by such DopeTribe regulars as Jay K, Floydhead, Max Freakout, to talk about a wide range of subjects including the Hemp Expo itself, the
revolutionary I-Inhale and how it's changing the Cannabis Community, how a major psychedelic experience can hamper one's ability to enjoy the pleasure of Cannabis, the benefits and limitations of
auto-flowering strains such as Lowryder, whether or not Cannabis could provide a much needed boost to the global economy if legalized, and whether governments would ever recognize that possibility,
the increasing clampdown on the Cannabis scene in Amsterdam and whether it'll ever conquer the public desire for legal ganja, and the coming ban on magic mushrooms in Amsterdam and how headshops will
respond to it. Next, the Dopefiend heads over the the I-Inhale stand for a chat with Peter, the man behind it's creation and development about how it came to be and its success since its release,
then forum member and grower slowme rocks up with his brand new i-inhale and some of his own home grown jack herer to talk about what led him to become a grower, then London based stoner esse b drops
in for a chat about his weekend at the Expo. Following a musical interlude, Herodian and Hash Whisperer swing by the DopeTribe corner for a taste of some G-Bomb vapour and a chat about the way
different temperatures of vaporization can affect the type of high you get from your favourite strain. Next the Dopefiend heads over to the Seedsman stand for a chat with Dopecast regular Tom from
Seedsman for a chat about the seed industry in the UK in general and whether there are moves afoot to restrict seed sale, whether the increasing legitimization of the medical marijuana scene in the
United States at the state level is having an impact on the seed business. Next, the Dopefiend chats to this week's sponsor JonnyB, Hash Whisperer, and Dopecast regular Floydhead about their
experience of the UK Hemp Expo and the likelihood of a seed sale ban arriving on British shores, as well as the approaching Dutch ban on mushrooms, then he has a chat with cartoonist and former
Disney animator Jason Wilson, the creator of the comic serial Smuggling Vacation before closing the day's festivities by chatting to Dopefiend Network Podcasters Max Freakout and Pothead, who's laden
with shopping bags full of goodies, and forum regular MycoPhile about their enjoyment of the UK Hemp Expo, before heading home after a long and very stoned weekend! Email mail@dopefiend.co.uk, send
