Henry's Uncle: A podcast about Addiction and Recovery

Today’s guest is Ed Bisch, who lost his beloved son Eddie, a high school senior, to a single oxycontin pill in February 2001. That very week, Ed began sounding the alarm about the dangers of the drug. Ed shares his journey and experiences with his crusade against Purdue Pharma and the unbelievable conversations and run-ins he had with people like J. David Haddox himself. Have you seen shows like Dopesick on Hulu, or Crime of the Century on HBO? Ed recommends that you watch these searing documentaries and read any and all of the books on the topic, if you want to learn more.
