Methamphetamine is a bad drug. Most people know this. The Current Vanguard team looks at how the forces of globalization-technology, international networks, and transportation have transformed this once obscure pharmaceutical into a global epidemic.

    • We have found the white dragon and its killing us all. I cant help but to see this as a sick form of population control. Regulating China is out of the question I take it.

    • This is great. Really incredible pod. This is so informative for someone who knows nothing about meth and the stats of gays who use meth. I think this pod needs to be shown in high schools.

    • Really incredible piece. I love how we grow to understand so many different aspects of the drug and how it's being used from this piece.

    • I have experienced firsthand the "tina" scene in america and this pod does justice to it. I don't know many people who have tried this drug even once and don't still have an addiction to it. This is one major reason it is so successful.
      What an awkward set of interviews at the beginning though... such a brave reporter!

      Cheers phukna!

    • Great pod. Put together very well, and quite informative.

      I knew basic information prior to seeing this about the meth problem in the world, and this pod really taught me a lot more about how large of an issue it truly is, along with how near-impossible it is to stop the trafficking of it due to the "balloon" effect.

      I'm honestly surprised about how candid the individuals were about the interview content.

    • As a former user myself, I urge anyone who is curious about this drug to STAY AWAY!!! I used the drug for 3 months and now a year and a half later just thinking about it gives me the itch.
