Show Notes

“Analysing the lived-experiences of New Zealand Methamphetamine users”

Are we thinking about drug ‘addiction’ all wrong? Dr. John Dance joins us to Unpack narratives of drug consumption in Aotearoa, the history and social forces that sustain Methamphetamine use, and the crippling permanency of drug convictions. When does recovery end- and at what point should people be allowed to shed labels from their past?

This is the condensed, short-form version of our full interview with Dr. Dance. To listen to the full episode, + bonus content, head to patreon.com/phdunpacked.
