Some police forces have stopped prosecuting people for possessing small amounts of cannabis, instead diverting them into government programmes if they're caught. Does that mean weed is basically legal now? We hear from the police, weed smokers and people who've got caught to find out the legal status of weed in the UK.

Is Smoking Weed Effectively Legal Now?

Most of us accept we're a bit hooked on social media, but for a lot of people it goes further than that. This week we hear from three people whose lives have been changed by social media: a junkie who can't quit Instagram, a writer who didn't like it when Twitter turned on him and a Vice writer who has unusual relationship with her Facebook stalker.

Is Social Media An Addiction?

Unemployment is a real problem for a lot of people and one we spend a lot of time talking about. But there's also the more niggling, first-world, problem of being stuck in a&nbsp;job that was just supposed to be a stop-gap, feeling undermotivated, wanting to quit but fearing the lack of security. When's the right time to quit your job? We hear from people who tried it with wildly varying results, then Joel Golby give us his Cosmo-style "Should you quit your job?" quiz.

Should You Quit Your Crappy Job?

This week, we look at some of the difficult questions around mental health and relationships. Can you break up with someone who's depressed? Should you tell a tinder date about a mental health problem? How does anxiety affect your sex life? We hear a couple that broke up because of issues around sex and wellbeing, Emily Reynolds wrestles with the hard questions of dating with mental health problems and the artist Hannah Perry makes a case for rethinking our attitudes to "mad" behaviour.

Can You Love Someone When You Don't Love Yourself?

It's never been easier to have sex with a stranger, if you're single and on Tinder&nbsp;you could basically go home with someone every single night.  But most of us don't do that, and not because we don't like having sex but because the people we meet somehow don't live up to our standards. Of course some people are simply tactless or cruel, but mostly it's little things that upset us. Tiny little dealbreakers –&nbsp;a goatee, bad footwear, the word "lush" – that stop us going home with someone.  This week we're just talking about dealbreakers: awful restaurant selection, dodgy politics and other things that would make you have a "sudden emergency" after one drink.

Could You Have Sex With A Stranger Tonight?

This week we speak to Yuval Noah Harari about his book Homo Deus, and ask whether we are now at a point where our technology&nbsp;is starting to know us better than we know ourselves. Should we just hand over decision-making power to our fitbits, Facebook and other devices that track our health and personality? We also hear from a company that has created a kegel tracker that goes inside your vagina, and talk to Vice regulars about whether there is any point in resisting technological advances that make our lives better.

Should We Let Tracking Devices Make Our Decisions For Us?
