Steven May is a federal whistleblower who took on one of the biggest pharmaceutical companies in the world: Purdue Pharma. His case, which once reached the Supreme Court, exposed what he believes was a calculated fraud that led to the approval of OxyContin and helped create the opioid crisis.

In this powerful interview, May shares the eye-opening details he uncovered during discovery. He reveals how his legal battle, though ultimately dismissed on a technicality, would have argued that if Purdue had not made false claims about the drug's efficacy, it never would have been approved. This is a story of a David-versus-Goliath struggle, where one man's pursuit of justice uncovered a systemic failure with devastating consequences.

May's experience resonates with other high-profile whistleblower cases, such as that of **Brooke Jackson** against Pfizer's mRNA vaccines. He's previously been interviewed by major news outlets like *The New Yorker* and France 24, and now, he's ready to tell his complete story.

Tune in to hear how Steven May's fight against corporate power sheds light on the origins of the opioid crisis and the critical role whistleblowers play in holding powerful institutions accountable.
