Reports from the UK describe a condition called "scrumeting"—simultaneous screaming and vomiting—among heavy cannabis users. While doctors label it Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome (CHS), the hosts suggest the symptoms may actually be caused by contaminated drugs or synthetic additives like fentanyl. The lack of lab testing for street drugs in the UK is contrasted with the regulated markets in Colorado and Washington.

Reports indicate that 90% of the cocaine supply in San Francisco is currently contaminated with Levamisole, a veterinary deworming drug. This adulterant is known to cause severe health complications and potential death in human users. The contamination is discussed in the context of shifting drug supply chains and the risks associated with the current illicit market.
