With three strikes, YouTube deletes your entire channel erasing all videos and views. It’s a horrifying choice for content creators dedicated to sharing the virtues of vaping with millions across the world.
Joining us today is top vape YouTuber GrimmGreen who fought off eradication and saved his popular YouTube channel, with 400,000 subscribers and over 80 million video views. Hear the alarming details of what happened and the enormous effort by friends and fans to keep GrimmGreen on YouTube.

Are e-cigarettes effective in helping smokers to quit? It’s one of the most hotly contested questions in the battle over vaping, but an answer may finally be in hand. According to the latest Cochrane Review of Electronic Cigarettes for Smoking Cessation, there is “high-certainty evidence” that nicotine vapes are more effective than traditional nicotine replacement therapies, such as nicotine patches and gum, in helping people to quit smoking.
Dr. Jamie Hartmann-Boyce, associate professor at the University of Oxford’s Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences and editor at Cochrane Tobacco Review Group, is joining us today to discuss the new evidence.

Public health’s insufferable war on vaping continues its path of destruction for U.S. consumers of nicotine vaping products. Fueled by the moral panic over teen vaping, voters in California passed a statewide flavor ban that’s certain to force some vapers back to smoking while denying current smokers easy access to safer nicotine products which could save lives.
Charles Gardner, executive director of INNCO, joins us to discuss the impact of the California flavor ban, the CDC’s deliberate exaggeration of youth vaping rates, and the shocking revelations from the Reagan-Udall Foundation’s review of the FDA’s PMTA decision-making process.

The War on Vaping continues unabated, as the U.S. Centers for Disease Control states in a group call with anti-vaping lobbyists that the teen vaping “epidemic” is NOT over. And the FDA digs in, refusing to set the record straight with the American public over the perceived risks and harms of vaping.
Regulators and government have created a “chaotic hot mess” in the U.S., says Clive Bates, tobacco control policy expert and former Director of Action on Smoking and Health (UK), in today’s episode of RegWatch. Hear Bates break down the 2022 NYTS youth vaping stats, his call for the CDC to stop its dishonest spin of youth vaping data, and his assessment of the FDA’s failed “authorization regime.”

It’s hard to imagine how Canada’s new excise tax on nicotine vaping products won’t drive scores of people back to smoking. When combined with the sales tax, the effective federal tax rate on most vaping products bloats to more than 50 percent over retail.
This massive increase in price pushes vaping products precariously close to the cost of smoking. Smokers lose a prime incentive to quit, and new vapers may abandon their effort and return to smoking.
Ian Irvine, Professor of Economics at Concordia University and Research Fellow at the C.D. Howe Institute, is joining us today to discuss the economic and social consequences of the new excise tax. Hear about the hundreds of millions of dollars in tax revenue Canadian vapers are sending to Ottawa and the colossal damage facing the Canadian vaping industry after a half-billion-dollar revenue loss.
