In this episode, we dive into the Sackler’s which is the family behind the Netflix Limited Series: “Painkiller.” We peel back the layers on how the Sackler's started Purdue Pharma, the company that created OxyContin and the culprit behind the opioid epidemic. I discuss (among other things) the Sacker family’s history, how the Sackler’s developed and marketed OxyContin, the effects of OxyContin, how dopamine levels affect us, and so much more.
