Yup, whilst in London, I hooked up with my Atlantic doppelgänger, The Dopefiend – a guy who homegrows a cannabis podcast called Dopecast. He even has a herd of cohorts gleaning wisdom and inspiration to bust out shows of their own.  Uncle Weed in the Dope Den

Good times indeed and mucho recordings to spread and this takes time … so while i am editing away, here is me – Uncleweed on Dopefiend’s Dopecast #80.

Here’s the show description:

On this extra-special Eightieth Episode Extravaganza, The Dopefiend is joined in the VaporLounge by podcasting legend, Cannabis journo and Hemp activist Uncle Weed for an hour-long exhaustive interview and vaping session covering subjects as diverse as where the world’s best weed comes from, the current Cannabis scene in Canada, how Vancouver has changed in relation to the Cannabis scene in Toronto, the spread of Compassion Clubs in the US and whether medical marijuana will ever be fully legal, Hemp and Cannabis use in Japan and the North American hemp revolution Uncle Weed discovered while making his documentary The Hempen Road, and how the hemp industry has changed since the film’s release, and lots more, including some extremely tasty bags of Hawaiian, Brainstorm and New York City Diesel.

Yes, yes i’ve been internationally chastised for my molasses pace of production so while i am toiling away for your aural pleasure, download it yerself to hear the grandeur of two podcasters managing compelling discourse amidst copious clouds of vapor.
