From Leslie
Greetings!
I only recently discovered you, Dimi, and the Smokers Show thanks to a mention of you on the website of the e liquid company I purchase from (Alice in Vapeland). I love most of their products so trusted their suggestion of checking your reviews out and I will forever be grateful to them for it. To give you a little background, I was a half-pack a day smoker for almost 30 years. Like you I began my vaping journey around 2008-2009. It started with a cigalike from a C-store and eventually I got up the courage to walk into a vape shop and purchased my 1st mod (innokin itaste vv). I am ashamed to admit that even though I quickly found vaping as enjoyable as smoking I just could never fully walk away from cigarettes. Fast forward 10 years and skip over $1000’s spent finding the “perfect” mod, today I can finally say that I am no longer a smoker and my “dual” use is a pod with tobacco salt nic for when my 9mg regular just isn’t enough. That suggestion was a game changer for me. Since trying that, I have been 2 weeks without a cigarette and currently I don’t even miss them. But the best vaping trick hands down for me has been the Smokers Show. I started binge watching past episodes (next up is #28 so I still have a ways to catch up) and it has acted as a support group for me and absolutely contributed to my staying away from traditional tobacco. Thank you and Dimi a 1000 times for what y’all are doing! I am so very grateful to have discovered your videos. Please keep it up!
Sincerely,
Leslie

VAPING NEWS: COLORADO [Vape Tax]
“The bill was negotiated between Democratic lawmakers, Gov. Jared Polis’ office, health advocates and the Altria Group, one of the world’s largest tobacco companies. Altria is the maker of Marlboro cigarettes and a major investor in the vaping brand Juul. By July 2027, nicotine products would be taxed at 62% of their market list price.”
BILL TARLING — There’s no explanation why a tobacco company was included in the negotiations while vape companies were excluded. As well, note that “Modified-Risk Tobacco Products” [e.g. IQOS Heat Sticks] will only be charged 21% tax rate by 2027 compared to vapor products being charged 62% tax (same as cigarettes), so the tax on vape products will be almost triple — AND the Modified-Risk current rate of 40% tax is being lowered to 15% while e-cigs are starting off raised to 30%
Proposition EE explained: How much more cigarettes, nicotine products would cost in Colorado

VAPING NEWS: FDA VAPING REGULATIONS CHALLENGED
“Vaping manufacturers and retailers pointed to what they called the government’s “whack-a-mole approach to the Appointments Clause” Wednesday in a D.C. Circuit appeal over e-cigarette regulation. Ten companies — among them Moose Joose, Mountain Vapors and Tobacco Harm Reduction 4 Life — brought the challenge here over a final agency rule that the Food and Drug Administration adopted in 2016 to designate vape wares as tobacco products subject to regulation under the Tobacco Control Act. Pillard questioned how the FDA can have individuals who are not duly appointed under the Constitution generating agency actions that are then made valid later on by “periodic blanket ratifications” by appointed officials.”

VAPING NEWS: WORLD EVIDENCE BASED HEALTHCARE DAY
“The Cochrane Tobacco Addiction Group (TAG) is hosting the World Evidence-Based Healthcare (EBHC) Day on October 20, 2020, to raise awareness of the need for better evidence to inform healthcare policy, practice and decision making in order to improve health outcomes globally. One thing vapers will have noticed is that many countries around the world fail to rely on evidence, preferring to rely on ideologically-driven papers that simply support their fears, ignorance, or desire to raise money from tobacco harm reduction.”

VAPING NEWS: VAPING MORE EFFECTIVE CESSATION AID THAN NRT THERAPY AND PLACEBOS
“The journal Nicotine and Tobacco Research is currently carrying a meta-analysis by researchers at the Medical University of Vienna. They found that vaping could offer a solution to tobacco-related harm due to how it delivers nicotine and how vapers use their devices, and that the papers they looked out suggest it is better than placebos, traditional NRT, or counselling alone. Grabovac, Oberndorfer, Fischer, Wiesinger, Haider, and Dorner looked at 13950 publications before identifying 12 studies as eligible for systematic review and 9 for random-effects meta-analyses. They say: “Electronic-cigarettes have emerged as a potential and novel aid in smoking cessation interventions providing an experience similar to combustible cigarettes.””
