I do want to throw a huge shout out to Beth Macy and her incredible book, Dope Sick.
And anyone listening to this, if you've seen the show and you haven't read the book yet, I highly recommend it.
It's not totally dissimilar from Hillbilly Elegy by JD Vance. It just takes a hard, honest and sometimes unfavorable view of Appalachia and what's happened there.
It's covered in the book dope sick, but there's another book called Empire of Pain that came out not too long ago that goes into Arthur Sackler in the 50s and the 60s.
