The main segment dives into the booming, loosely regulated industry of gas station drugs, products sold at convenience stores disguised as dietary supplements. Oliver breaks down the dangers of three specific types of products:

— Kratom & 7-OH: Supplements derived from the kratom plant that are marketed as energy boosters but act on the brain's opioid receptors. Oliver highlights how easily people can develop severe addictions to concentrated kratom derivatives like
