This American Life: The Call
Podcast: What Next | Daily News and AnalysisPublished On: Mon Sep 11 2023
Description: As the opioid overdose crisis continues, a group of volunteers started a hotline with one mission—not to encourage people to go to rehab, not even to discourage them from using—just to keep them alive for one more day. A collaboration with This American Life. Guests: Stephen Murray, paramedic and overdose researcher at Boston Medical Center. Jessie, a registered nurse who answers calls on the Never Use Alone hotline. Kimber, a caller to the hotline. If you enjoy this show, please consider signing up for Slate Plus.
