In episode two of the Woodstein Media Podcast, Raymond “Wendego” King speaks of using Hip Hop as an outlet for sobriety, #fuckfentanyl, and losing friends to overdoses.

The interview for this episode was conducted in May 2022 near Sauble Beach, Ontario. It was the primary source for an article that was part of a three-part series on harm reduction and the Fentanyl overdose crisis.
