This month’s Code 321 Podcast will feature a two-part series with Patrick Crowley of vtdigger.org. Patrick and I worked at the Burlington Fire Department together as Firefighter/EMS providers. Patrick is now a reporter with vtdigger.org and joins me to discuss his two-part article series entitled “The Third Wave” (links below). Part one of this series will explore how opiates have become such a problem and why our communities are fighting an uphill battle with this deadly epidemic.
