Hi everyone..I'm new here so apologies if this thread is in the wrong place or baaad in some way. I meant to join ages ago.

Want To Write About Drugs?
TheGoodDrugsGuide.com needs help. We're looking for two budding writer / researchers to help us run and write our respected website, and work on sateillite projects like our radio show...

The post is unpaid, as this is an non-profit no-income website. However, any interns would gain valuable experience and references from the professional writers and journalists who run the site. And come to our parties. Which are good.

Tasks could include:
: researching new articles
: fact-checking existing ones
: writing and updating the blog regularly
: interviewing subjects for our radio show
: answering email
: book reviews

Applicants should have an active interest in drugs. No, not just taking them. The whole spectrum: culture, science, medicine, law, spirituality, the internet, politics - all the areas which drugs impact.

Ideally we're looking for one person in the UK and one person in the US. But we're not set on that. We're also looking for a fairly regular commitment (4 hours plus week) so the job may best suit an undergraduate or similar layabout.

Above all you should be honest, reliable, creative, and thorough, with a really polite and friendly manner for talking to people about this very private area Also your veins should be thrumming with ideas juice, and your organs ache with truth. A little web / technical / HTML experience would be bonus.

Email a little bit about yourself, plus any links to stuff you've written or worked on to drugs AT thegooddrugsguide.com. Please get in touch as soon as possible, thank you.


oh and if you have killer skills editing speech radio on cubase or protools or whatever then that would be cool too...or maybe you are a documentary video editor hmmm

The Good Drugs Guide radio show tonight

and we are just editing tonights show - loads of Cannabis cup winners, alcohol laws, and a big spot on new SSRI evidence..oooh and a great song called "We are all on drugs" by Weezer

you can get it live at nine pm London time on http://www.resonancefm.com


btw you can now listen to the other radio shows online - 27mins, fast, funny

http://www.thegooddrugsguide.com/radio/

if you are on Windows either right-click the mp3 or just click it once and wait for Windows to download it invisibly in your browser window - takes a while
 
This isn't ignored - give me another day to ask some mods about a proper home for this. Are you mainly focused on the UK or is this intended to be a global request for contributors?
 
well this Thursdays show - 8th Dec 05 at 9pm London time on www.resonancefm.com

is all about Legal Highs

we will be taking a large range of them live in the studio, so will our guests

so it could get weird in there...send us texts +447769816169 anytime from now and during the show - tell us the Legal Highs you have tried that don't work..and the ones that do work that you would rather we didn't mention


Listen live in London on Resonance 104.4 fm every Thursday night from 9-9.30pm
or via the live stream on the website http://www.resonancefm.com
 
This is coming out of the HOMELESS forum. I'm moving this to Drugs In The Media forum, but leaving redirects in various other forums in hopes of pulling more attention into this.

Mods, if you feel it should be moved from DITM to elsewhere, please do so with a redirect so we won't lose the other links. Thanks.
 
just mention shit ones. dont want anything good getting banned
 
many thanks for all pm's and emails - really cool..we will be getting back to people soon - great to get support


we are editing right now...

and tonights show is all about the nature of addiction

we started on coke and crack..and ended up with a controversial look at whether addiction is all it's cracked up to be

thought provoking, I'm still getting my head round it

And has anyone heard of the amazing experiment called Rat Park?

Plus newspieces on the Sativex trial death, czech relaxation of cannabis and mushroom laws ooh and a whole load of other stuff

Hope you enjoy it

9pm tonight Thursday 15th Dec resonancefm.com

(last weeks Legal Highs Live show is not yet available for download as it all went a bit weird in there and the minidisc machine lost the plot. We will see if the station mp3 recorder got a better version)
