Sam Quinones, author of Dreamland, returns to chat with Daniel Ford on Friday Morning Coffee about his new book, The Least of Us: True Tales of America and Hope in the Time of Fentanyl and Meth.
Caitlin Malcuit also shares some thoughts about America's opioid epidemic. "The TL;DR version is that too much focus—when it comes to prevention, harm reduction, and so on—is on the individual rather than the systems that get people stuck in the first place,” she says.
