Addiction medicine specialists Dr. Casey Grover and Dr. Reb Close share essential information about using naloxone (Narcan) to save lives during opioid overdoses. They discuss how naloxone administration differs between hospital settings and community response, emphasizing that having this medication readily available is crucial in today's world of fentanyl-contaminated street drugs.• Naloxone should be as normalized and common as fire extinguishers in homes and workplaces• In medical settings, naloxone can be carefully titrated to prevent precipitating severe withdrawal• In community settings, the protocol is simple: administer nasal naloxone, call 911, wait for help• Only 4% of naloxone prescriptions are actually picked up at pharmacies, making direct distribution essential• Almost all street drugs now contain fentanyl, placing anyone who uses illicit substances at risk of opioid overdose• Effective community training includes brief videos, hands-on demonstrations, and normalizing the medication• Emerging substances in the drug supply (xylazine, synthetic benzos) make naloxone even more important• Framing naloxone as a tool to help others rather than oneself can overcome stigma-based resistanceIf you want to conduct a naloxone training in your community and need resources like videos, slide decks, or handouts, please email Dr. Grover. Together we can ensure everyone has the knowledge and tools to prevent overdose deaths.To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

Firefighters Use Narcan To Revive Puppy Exposed To FentanylThe Bottom Line:Firefighters in Lacey, Washington, saved an unresponsive puppy exposed to fentanyl by administering Narcan, a medication used to reverse opioid overdoses.The treatment was successful, and the puppy has recovered well.The fire department says such cases are rare, but they say they're always ready to handle all types of emergencies.The Full Story:Earlier this week, firefighters from Lacey Fire District 3 in Washington State found an unresponsive puppy inside a vehicle where fentanyl was present. The crew immediately administered a small dose of Narcan to the puppy, a medication commonly used to reverse opioid overdoses. The fire department says the treatment worked and the puppy is now doing well.Narcan, also known as naloxone, is an opioid antagonist that quickly reverses the effects of drugs like fentanyl by blocking opioid receptors. Fentanyl is a highly potent synthetic opioid, and according to the FDA, even a tiny amount can be dangerous for dogs. Despite the unusual nature of the situation, the firefighters' training enabled them to respond effectively and save the puppy.The Lacey Fire District 3 shared photos of the puppy wrapped in a blanket and receiving care, writing that while using Narcan on a dog is rare, their teams are prepared for all emergencies. The department expressed relief and pride in the successful rescue.Source: PEOPLE

Now, Denise is on a powerful mission to make sure no other family makes the same tragic mistake. With raw honesty and a mother's fierce love, Denise is turning her pain into purpose. Her message is urgent and crystal clear: Narcan can revive—but without 911, it might not be enough. Medical professionals are essential in those critical moments after an overdose. Time is everything. From school assemblies to social media, podcasts to public events, Denise is spreading awareness with one simple but vital formula: Narcan + 911 = a chance at life.

The boys are back in town, and Breakin' It Down!
 This one covers some serious ground, and you're gonna want to hang on for the whole ride. From AI and social media madness to grammar, concerts, and Deadhead culture, Chad kicks things off with his recent trip to The Sphere in Vegas to see Bob Weir and John Mayer tear it up live. But when the questions about rock ‘n roll start flying, there's only one man to call for answers: Uncle Ted Nugent. Chad picks up the phone and gets the straight truth from the Motor City Madman himself. From there, the guys talk about what's really happening in downtown Reno, from Narcan bins to homelessness, and the pressure of being a business owner in a city that's changing fast without any real support for hard-working people. They don't shy away from the tough stuff. From politics to family, to regret, to what it really means to want something more out of life. They talk about age gaps in relationships, real connection, and speaking from a place most people are way too shy to speak on. As usual, it's honest, hilarious, raw, and all-gas-no-brakes, and it might be one of the most interesting episodes yet!

"Harm reduction is a really useful term, but it's a bit of a misnomer. Some people are moving toward the phrase Risk Reduction. Risk is always present, but if you play a good game you can eliminate your risks entirely."   This special episode of Coping 101 is hosted by Madlon, c89.5's host of Color Theory, DJ, mental health advocate, and longtime raver. DanceSafe's Richard Hartnell joined Madlon to explore the current state of affairs in the nightlife and festival scene, when it comes to responsible partying, drug policy, and the various ways we can look out for ourselves and each other.    Fentanyl specifically is in the spotlight these days, as an increasing cause of overdose and death among young people. It can be dangerous, but it's also become this catch-all for drug culture. Here we cover what people should know about fentanyl, how prevalent it is, how and when to use narcan - or naloxone - and some of the common misconceptions around it. We invited DanceSafe to guide us through this loaded subject matter, as they're a drug checking, earplug slinging, party servicing nonprofit that was founded on social justice principles. Programs include drug education, sexual health and consent deep-dives, political advocacy, and event outreach.   Presented by c89.5 in partnership with Seattle Children's, Coping 101 is an ongoing series led by students in Nathan Hale High School's Podcast Club. The project destigmatizes mental health from a teen's perspective, and is made possible with support from Friends For Life.

There are signs that America may be turning the tide on the fentanyl crisis. Across the country, the numbers show that overdose deaths from the powerful opioid and other drugs are dropping significantly. Recent analysis of U.S. data by researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill indicates that deaths began declining in late 2023, when they reached a peak of 114,000. Now, the CDC suggests they're below 87,000. This comes at a time when fentanyl seizures at the U.S.-South border are decreasing—something the White House says is a sign that their border policies and efforts to curb the flow of illegal drugs are working. Earlier this week, Dr. Nabarun Dasgupta, a scientist and researcher at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, joined host Gurnal Scott to discuss the trend and why his research suggests fentanyl deaths are on the decline. Dr. Dasgupta explained how multiple factors, including awareness, the use of Narcan, increased border security, and even politics, have all contributed to the improvement. However, he also warned that America is not yet out of the woods. We made some edits for time, and thought you might like to hear the whole conversation. Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with Dr. Nabarun Dasgupta and allow you to hear more of his take on the state of the fentanyl crisis.

NPR and three public radio stations in Colorado filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration today. They argue the White House’s executive order calling on the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to cease federal funding to NPR and PBS is unconstitutional. The Trump administration has made deep cuts to universities, federal agencies, and cultural and historical institutions. Their goal is to undermine information gathering and education that doesn’t support the MAGA agenda. Opioid overdose deaths dropped nearly a quarter last year, thanks in part to medicines like Narcan. But the Trump administration wants to cut funding for Narcan, and experts worry that progress will be lost.  Four East LA artists in their early 20s formed an art collective called Asco in 1972, exploring police brutality, immigration, gender, and sexuality. They’re the subject of a new documentary.

Addiction specialists across the country say they are concerned about a Trump administration plan to end a Narcan program. As reported by the New York Times on Friday, the administration's draft budget would terminate a $56 million annual grant program that provides the life-saving drug and training for emergency responders in how to administer it. The plan would not affect how state and local governments obtain Narcan. Meanwhile, in New York, lawmakers, advocates, and families are putting pressure on state officials to invest more resources in combatting the overdose crisis. In Monroe County alone, there were 95 opioid overdoses within the past month. Robert Kent is a national drug policy expert and former Biden administration official.
