drugs inc nat geo channel episode 4 hallucinogens

Recommended Posts

hey all just watched episode 4 of the new series of drugs inc. from national geographic

just wanted to give people a heads up if they havent heard about it yet it was a pretty interesting episode

very unbiased and was basically showing the good in hallucinogens and people using different things lsd, mucsrooms, dmt

all for medicinal purposes

anyway was fairly interesting i recomend it for people who like to watch these kinds of docos

for people in oz with foxtel the series starts on nat geo on i think the 2 feb

otherwise its playing in the u.s. now and you can find a torrent pretty easy

just thought i'd let people know

so check it out if your interested :)

Just finished watching a doco on nat geo HD called inside marijuana ! Was quite unbiased if not pro-pot

Tomorrow starts a whole new series focusing solely on MJ :)

Im definately liking these new lines of documentariesfrom nat geo.

unfortunately weed wars only had 4 episodes and is now over

im pretty sure the reason is that theyre being sued over the show

because a woman won a competition to be able to pitch a show to the discovery channel

she pitched her show which was about a different dispensary somewhere else in america she called the show

"greener pastures"

and it was basically weed wars

however the discovery channel said sorry its to edgy for us and well basically we're not gonna do it

a very short time later weed wars emerged so discovery is now being sued

and weed wars just fell off the map after just 4 episodes with no explanation as far as i can tell

i might be wrong that this is why its not on anymore but this is wat seems to be the case

if this is the case its a pity i liked they show

but i also think she has every right to sue over it thats fuked up

Thanks for that myco, I just assumed it was a mid season break or something (wishful thinking) but what you said makes a lot of sense :(

Hopefully something comes back, did like the crew on weed wars though, lucky bastards!

Fair call that she's suing, I'd be pretty pissed if that happened to me.

i watched the hallucinogens ep last night, the first i've seen of season 2.

the doco felt a lot different than the last season, and some of the stuff being said didn't seem very accurate (ie - the ayahuasca vine contains harmalas not dmt)

it seemed to show hallucinogens in a much more negative light then they could have.

can anybody who's watched it please let me know their thoughts?

Well chnt, I watched it with you, and I tend to agree.

Unfortunately the narrator guy's douchey voice kind of ruined it for me too, and I miss the guy from last season.

Perhaps you already realise this since I told you as we were watching it.

Blah blah, insightful comment, blah blah.

after watching all of season 2, i have to say it was remarkably different from season one, it seemed very biased, at least compared to season 1.

surely someone can comment about season 2 also. i felt it had an anti-drugs/pro-prohibition agenda.

it even mentioned that cannabis (well hash since the doco was about hash) can cause schizophrenia, which has not only not been proven, but effectively disproved by prof. david nutt in his seminar titled "how to get the media to talk about drugs" (possibly not word for word)
