Scrolling 2 Death

More Snapchat. More Problems. (with Sam Chapman)


Listen Later

If you have a teenager (or pre-teen), this episode is a MUST-LISTEN.

The fentanyl epidemic is finding its way into our own front yard through our children's access to drug dealers on Snapchat and other social media platforms.

In this episode, you'll hear the story of Sammy Chapman, who was 16 years old when he suffered from fentanyl poisoning from a free pill that a drug dealer dropped off at his house. The drug deal took place on Snapchat, which is quickly becoming known as an "open air drug market for kids."

This conversation shines a light on the faulty nature of social media products and the harms that our kids are facing. Sammy's Dad, Sam, give us parents several takeaways that could literally save our child's life.
