America's deadly drug epidemic is only getting worse! The CDC reports that the number of people who died from a drug overdose in 2021 was over six times the number in 1999. On this episode of The N&H podcast special guest and NYT Bestselling author Sam Quinones joins us to discuss America's deadly drug epidemic. We'll also be talking about Sam's bestselling novels "Dreamland" and 'The Least Of Us, True Tales of America and Hope in the Time of Fentanyl and Meth."
