HBH is so proud of this episode--we think this breakdown of an important and ongoing issue bears repeating:
Award-winning journalist Sam Quinones lays out the facts behind the meth and fentanyl drug crisis in the U.S.:
He expertly describes how mass manufacturing has made these drug ubiquitous, cheap, and infinitely more potent, and thus unlike any other drugs--legal or illegal--ever consumed by human beings. Sam explains how today’s meth has triggered an abrupt rise in homelessness, and why these drugs and so destructive to users, their families, and ultimately all of us.
