Dedicated to the memory of David Poses, a rock star in harm reduction with a huge heart who left us way too soon.

David Poses recently released his addiction memoir The Weight of Air: A Story of the Lies About Addiction and the Truth About Recovery.  

David joined me this week to me about it. We discusses ways to end the war on drugs, the rehab industrial complex, Suboxone (buprenorphine), methadone, stereotypes that don't pan out (speedballing, addiction, rehab, religion), and a lot more. We also dig into his book and some of the stories that didn't make it, including a bogus arrest that involved police misconduct.
