Hooked 14: Introduction to heroin

Written by Nigel Brunsdon on 14 September 2009.

Hooked Podcast subscribe in iTunesHooked episode 14 is an introduction to the basics of heroin. We discuss where it got its name, what happens with an overdose, how the drug works and much more. All in the usual Hooked style.

Although I think most of the people who use this site will already be aware of most of the information we discuss this was a fun show to do (and even fun to listen back to, although I still hate my own voice). A particular high point for me was convincing Allison to test out a paramedic trick for testing if someone can be woken up.

You can either download the episode directly or better still you can subscribe to the podcast via iTunes which will automatically get each new episode as it comes out.

Via iTunesIf you're not someone who has listened to podcasts before, or if you have never even heard of them then we have an introductory article that explains all here.

Allison in pain

During the podcast I convinced Allison to test out what it feels like to crush a pencil against her nail, observant listeners will have spotted me saying I got a photo of it.
