episode 16: The New Opium Wars
A drug epidemic of monstrous and devastating proportions has descended upon the globe and governments are failing to keep up. Previously medicinal and beneficial drugs have been hijacked and altered by rogue chemists to stay one step ahead. We discuss the work of a journalist who penetrated deep into the shadowy world of novel psychoactive substance manufacturing and learned how China intends to use it for unconventional warfare.
Then for our Plus+ members we cover a terrifying modern poltergeist encounter and hear how bringing a cursed photo into a home caused a chain reaction of paranormal events.
