In Indonesia, the tobacco industry is virtually unregulated. Over two-thirds of all men are smokers and it's commonplace for children as young as six to take up the habit. Investigating this phenomenon in Malang, VICE visits a clinic that promises cures to a plethora of modern ailments through tobacco and smoking. Heroin is the most addictive drug on earth, and some people will do anything to kick the habit. Enter Ibogaine, a drug made out of the African iboga root, whose intense, hallucinogenic properties make it a Type-A felony drug. But many swear it's the most effective way to kick heroin addiction, especially when combined with a ritual that involves face paint and chanting.

Since the US occupation of Afghanistan, heroin production in the region has skyrocketed, making the country the number-one producer in the world by a large margin. Suroosh Alvi takes a rare look inside neighbouring Iran to meet the suffering heroin addicts, and to see how the country is coping with the illegal drug trade. With the polar ice caps shrinking due to global warming, new trade routes are being exposed, along with billions of dollars' worth of natural-resource reserves. This is prime real estate and the five nations bordering the Arctic are readying themselves to fight for it. David Choe heads north to witness NATO forces participating in the largest polar military exercise in history. The problem is that there's one non-NATO country that already considers itself rightful owner of the region: Russia.

The legalisation of marijuana in the United States is now a reality. On January 1 of 2016, Colorado lifted the prohibition on recreational marijuana use and now cannabis vendors can sell the drug from seed to smoke. This great experiment has subsequently brought forth a gold rush mentality for entrepreneurs seeking to capitalise on the nascent industry. At the same time, Mexican cartels are projected to potentially lose up to several billion dollars in profits. Federal laws make it difficult for businesses to use banks, giving life to highly trained security forces that protect weed profits. Businessmen, and even lawmakers are trying to capitalise on the potential success of the end of marijuana prohibition. David Choe looks at the rising entrepreneurs and businesses of this ever-growing trade.

Thousands of North Koreans cross the border into China illegally every year. Living in perpetual fear of being discovered, with all odds against them, defectors still do everything they can to leave. If arrested in communist Laos, they may be sent back to North Korea to face prison camp or worse. VICE joins a South Korean pastor who has developed a modern-day underground railroad to move defectors from China to freedom and eventual citizenship in South Korea. The most dangerous place in the world is Kashmir's line of control, which partially occupies the Indian state and separates India from Pakistan.

Hitler's fascination with propaganda was born in the trenches of the First World War. There he saw it emerge as a potent tool of psychological warfare - one that he would harness to build the Nazi movement over the course of the 1920's and early 1930's. He used simple, repetitive rhetoric, striking images and symbolism and his talent as a public speaker to tap into the discontent of the German people. This episode explores Hitler's early propaganda tactics as he rose through the ranks of the Nazi Party, from PR man to ultimate leader.

Having had a fascination with the world of magic since he was a boy, Alan Davies explores the extraordinary life of illusionist and stunt performer, Harry Houdini, the man who against the odds became one of the most successful entertainers in the world. In a bid to understand why Houdini felt compelled to perform such terrifying death defying acts, Alan visits New York where the young Eric Weiss arrived as a child with his Hungarian immigrant family, made his entry into show business and ultimately performed some of his most death-defying stunts. Immersing himself in the world of Houdini, Alan tries to hold his breath under ice cold water, lies on a bed of nails, gets strung upside down in a straitjacket and takes an exclusive look at David Copperfield's priceless collection of Houdini artefacts in Vegas. Alan takes to Houdini enthusiasts and delves into the family history of a man driven to conquer his rivals and be the very best.
