Best known for distributing massive amounts of LSD , the Brotherhood of Eternal Love was an outlaw group of surfers, smugglers, and psychedelic evangelists who also exported so much hashish out of Afghanistan that they developed a game-changing new way to move the product at scale. Working with their in-house research-and-development team, the Brotherhood invented a highly innovative chemical solvent-based concentration system that gave rise to the modern dab.  So settle in for a wild ride, and happy 7/10 everyone! If you don't know, it's like 4/20 but for hash instead of weed. This episode first aired in 2020 and features former GMIWH co-host Abdullah Saeed.
