turns out that the Molly craze is back and for those of you who don't know what
molly is it's considered the pier former MDMA and
it is a very very popular party drug now
it was very popular back in the nineteen nineties during this whole
rave era but after went away for a little while now it's come back and what
people are wondering why
it has a lot to do with pop culture's you guys can imagine all the sudden
you're hearing
rap music reference Molly are but also the whole Edem culture is becoming more
and more popular there's been this marriage between
rap music and Edem I mean you have a very very
popular DJ's like to yes tower David where a
working with rap artists to create music and as a result
all the sudden you're you're seeing people get more into the techno into the
electronic dance music
and be here mauling they want to try Molly
big on the party on Molly alright for so all the sounds like
pro wrestling for me like %uh doubt man he had man MDNA side a tap on duty DM
or whatever that thing was ok fifty easy and electronic dance music okie okay
electro guess we'll see which of course I partake in every weekend um
about overall I'm not buying the CS ZD a much more popular now yes
okay abide another reason my eyes appearing in a lot more rap music is
because Iran so things
okay hi lovely grab hijackers outlook is beary
yeah alright and it's a name which is easy
right it sees like ya like dollar hey i'm looking for Molly does anyone know
where molly is
not such a grandpa hello anyway so it's like oh it's cool it's cool
colleague Mary Jane back in the day right like alright see this would be
true to this rule though
okay if this aspect to it um
but I think mainly the reason is coming to come back as people perceive it
as a safe drug that it's not necessarily safe
but it seems like well okay it's math like melts your mind in your face in
eighteen months or less
yeah you know hair when its as all these other problems
where is like a basalt you're buying people space of
yeah you know but and this mbna you're done this earlier in tapping out i mean
it's it's fun it a messy you should do it but this how it's perceived
so lots a really interesting facts about MDMA
basically back in nineteen 12 German scientists are created at the formulated
a patented
and it was and then after they created they said
few pinned us the city to meet okay so after they created it
you know it was use for therapeutic purposes
and it didn't really become popular in the United States until about the
nineteen eighties
that people were using ecstasy is that of course that's another street name for
people were using ecstasy to go partying in and to have certain sexual
experiences
because it does I'm heightens the senses so people do feel a little more touchy
feely when they're on it
but in 1985 the government got very very tough
on ecstasy and they started going after anyone who is caught trafficking
anyone who is caught in possession of it and it got a very bad rap because
since there was such high demand for it a lot of a drug dealers are people in
the black market would cut it with dangerous
a substances including speed rat poison fertilizer
I'm so ecstasy kinda went from being a cool party driving everyone was doing
and it kinda had a bad name because of what it was cut with
now what you're seeing is this emergence a Molly
right the the rebranded rebranded it and it's like this PR stunt because
there's this notion that it's pure MDMA but of course there's really no way to
ensure that unless you buy certain Tess kids to make sure that it is pure
yet because that's what it to people that are about to do drugs really want
to do
be really responsible no I want my test get along with me everybody before I we
do our let's do that so kevin Pereira
spoke very openly about his mall use on the show
him and he said that he uses are the test kits very inexpensive and you just
tested before you try to make sure that it's not going to kill you
and what not I don't get me wrong I look ever gonna use it to test it sounds like
a great idea I'm
meet him in like what I'm not a dork I mean I'm definitely count orbit
if I were to use on my mind like readjustment we're just area
balls and I'm calling kevin Pereira my goes on my bad ok yeah that get around
and I should note that Jake
is definitely right when it comes to on the seriousness
up the drug versus other drug so you know ecstasy is the feel-good drug
you take it you party for a few hours as long as you are responsible user
and what I mean is you stay hydrated you don't overdose
some people take multiple pills in one night which is terrible
obviously and I'm not trying to encourage people to do it but if you do
like one pill
and use a hydrated you're gonna be fine you took Mike my guess is that the
biggest downside with all this and why I'd be concerned about doing it
is that if you get a rush over the serotonin or whatever it is
you get a euphoric feeling there's always going to be a price for
so yeah you could crash I'm not worried about the crash so much after your
done with it but I'm worried it deteriorates
those cells in your mind that if you keep doing it over and over again
that you could do some permanent damage and then go get into a funk I had a guy
a friend who did a lotta X back in the day really
and I i felt that he got into a bigger and bigger depression
and then felt that he needed to do it almost every night so you are messing
with the chemicals in your brain
there's no question about that the brain does release a
at a huge amount of the feel-good chemicals when you're on ecstasy
and as a result in that following weeks you will feel down you won't feel
as good as you typically do I'm so
the jury is still out on the long-term damage they can do to your body which is
why it's really important to allow
researchers and scientists to keep studying this right now other number I
love
researchers that are looking into pure MDMA for therapeutic use
and they were looking at female
participants who are suffering post-traumatic stress disorder as a
result rape
and it was incredible because %uh under the low doses that MDMA that they give
to these women
about eighty-nine percent of them said that they felt up
much better like they didn't like it really help them therapeutically so
look that was one study more be studies need to be done
but I think that there is some therapeutic potential for it
yet it maybe it's a juiced up man marijuana
you know it's a hiker I have glaucoma dog win any somali help me out BC
because we got home I can't even find mom
