Opioid Crisis

A great show and a big thanks to Tim and Dave for having Claudia with the Don’t Punish Pain org to highlight pain patients losing access to legal opioid pain medications. The CDC has done a disservice to the medical community, doctors and patients. They’re a third wheel in the doctors office where they have no business being involved. This government agency needs to get out of the business of making decisions, deciding if doctors and pain management doctors or clinics should or shouldn’t prescribe medication. Claudia is an advocate, working countless hours advocating on the behalf of pain patients and physicians, without receiving anything in return for her dedication. She is an angel to our community!!!!!

Mr.CBohannon ,

Exellent Show

I think you guys have a great podcast. The message is great. The war on drugs is actually a war on people. It has cost trillions in taxpayer dollars and has acheived nothing. Keep up the great work, Tim and Dave!

Most Respectfully,

Fantastic!

I absolutely appreciate what you guys are doing with this podcast. These things need to be discussed with everyone! If everyone thought the way you two do and the majority of the people that listen to this podcast do, this country would be in such better shape. Legit addicts need to have better access to rehab programs, not these crappy programs that we have now, but access to facilities that the rich go to. The ones that have all the resources and the best medical staff. The Don’t Punish Pain movement needs to be taken seriously. I alhave cancer, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, and I had my legs leg shattered in an accident. Getting the proper medications that I actually need are so hard to get. It’s so ridiculous. Doctors treat you like junkies as do the pharmacy staff. It’s absurd. If we decriminalized/made legal so many people would still be alive. If people could get these substances legitimately they would know it’s safe and a ton of people would avoid dying from bad drugs. It’s a shame how people who have addictions are treated. They are treated like garbage and that has to change. The war on drugs is a joke and it needs to end. It needs to end NOW. So sorry for the long review, I just love hearing likeminded people speak about these issues. I thoroughly enjoy listening to you guys! Thank you for taking the time to make these episodes for us. There’s a lot of people who appreciate you and applaud you!
