WEEDIQUETTE

December 24 from 4:35 PM, December 27 from 1:15 PM and December 31 from 4:30 PM

Reverberating somewhere between decriminalisation and the war on drugs, there's never been a more pivotal time to talk about the global politics and ethics of marijuana. In the first episode of WEEDIQUETTE, host Krishna Andavolu travels to Oregon and California to meet families who—as a last resort—have turned to hyper-potent weed oil to treat their children's life-threatening cancers.

F*CK THAT'S DELICIOUS AND HUANG'S WORLD

Christmas Day from 10:30 PM

Action Bronson cooks. Action Bronson raps. Action Bronson owns one of the world's foremost collections of artisanal bongs. Oh, and he's the star of F*CK THAT'S DELICIOUS, his web series-turned bona fide cooking show that sees him sample some of the best dishes on the planet. Look out for his New Zealand episode, where the best half-Albanian rapper pays a visit to Auckland and chef Al Brown teaches him how to make a craydog. On Christmas Day, he's also going back to back with New York Times bestseller Eddie Huang who has his very own cooking show HUANG'S WORLD. See him journey through Taiwan, Istanbul, Sicily and more as he explores and discovers the best that's on offer.

VICE WORLD OF SPORTS

Boxing Day from 1:15 PM

VICE WORLD OF SPORTS tells compelling stories that explore broad cultures, politics, places and people through the one thing connects them all: sport. Our executive producer and host Selema Masekela has traveled to places such as Ghana, Cuba, and Uganda to bring you stories you won't see anywhere else. You don't want to miss 'Jake and Zane', an episode which sees Masekela travel to the tiny village of Iten in Kenya where he meets some of the fastest runners in the world and a pair of testy twins from New Zealand.

KING OF THE ROAD

December 28 from 1:15 PM

KING OF THE ROAD is an institution in skateboarding. Started by Thrasher magazine in 2003, it's a demented, roving adventure that follows various skate teams across the country as they compete to accomplish a set list of tasks, some of which carry great risk of bodily harm, and others that don't involve skateboarding at all (but still might carry great risk of bodily harm). VICELAND teamed up with Thrasher for the latest season, which features the Birdhouse, Chocolate, and Toy Machine teams hauling ass across America, throwing their bodies and whatever dignity they might have had into the wind for a chance to become the reigning King of the Road.

GAYCATION

December 29 from 12:25 PM

Hosted by Ellen Page and her best friend Ian Daniel, GAYCATION is a travel show from a LGBTQI perspective. In their first gaycation, Ellen and Ian take Japan, a nation with a strangely ambiguous stance on homosexuality and queer issues. Next up is Rio De Janeiro, a queer party capital with a contradiction: it has the highest LGBTQI murder rate in the world. The duo also visit Jamaica, Ukraine, India, France, and the USA's Deep South.

ABANDONED

December 30 from 12:25 PM

Welcome to ABANDONED. Part travel log, part epic skate vid, and part in-depth documentary series, the VICELAND show follows legendary pro skater Rick McCrank as he explores North America's strangest deserted spaces and talks to the people closest to them. He also infiltrates local skate scenes to show how these empty lots and cast-off buildings can become vibrant, sustainable playgrounds for the next generation.

BIG NIGHT OUT

New Year's Eve from 11:20 AM

In the UK series BIG NIGHT OUT, host Clive Martin explores how partying has become both an act of rebellion and survival for young people everywhere. No matter how bleak the world gets, young people will continue to gather, get fucked up and dance to loud music. We look at the ways people escape the mundanities, and the tragedies, of life through the act of "going out."
