A group of local women, known as 'ụmụadas', decided to take matters into their own hands and confronted criminals with... their kitchen spoons. BBC Igbo editor Adline Okere, who is an ụmụada herself, has the story.

Matt Bair and Ryan Hedrick discuss how everyday household items can be used as drug paraphernalia. They cover items like PVC pipes, spoons, and even fruit. The episode is about helping caregivers recognize these things, but the focus is on behavior changes as the real warning signs. Instead of getting caught up in objects, pay attention to how your loved one is acting.   Timestamps & Key Takeaways: 5:35 - 6:38: Ryan shares how he and his friends used bounce sheets and toilet paper rolls to trick their parents and hide their drug use.   6:50 - 8:09: Matt talks about early warning signs of someone starting to use drugs or alcohol. Look out for shifts in behavior or routines.   8:13 - 9:06: Matt's “favorite” paraphernalia was an empty liquor bottle—highlighting how addicts can get attached to these objects.   9:15 - 11:15: Matt shares how his “dealer” was just the liquor store, and Ryan talks about the distinct smell of cocaine.   11:39 - 12:30: Fentanyl can be odorless, making it harder to detect. The paraphernalia used for fentanyl can vary widely.   12:44 - 15:15: Toiletry items are often repurposed for smoking weed. Addicts get creative fruit, like apples and oranges, can also be used for drug use.   15:16 - 16:07: Money is a common tool for people ingesting drugs like cocaine or other powders.   16:08 - 17:30: Spoons are often linked to heroin use. Check the bottom of spoons—if it's burnt, it could be a sign of use.   17:45 - 18:15: Matt describes how a mask can be used to inhale substances and get high.   18:20 - 19:30: Ryan shares his experience using a light bulb to smoke drugs.   19:40 - 21:00: A "bullet" is a small container that holds cocaine, making it easy to conceal. Caregivers should be aware of this item.   21:00 - 24:00: Visine and sunglasses can also be signs—used to hide bloodshot eyes or dilated pupils.   25:15: Closing Thoughts—Stay aware of behavior changes more than objects.
