Challenging Pathos discusses functional as well as dysfunctional drug use and addiction. Listen to activists, professionals, psychonaughts, and users who live with legal and illegal drugs in their daily lives. Challenging Pathos is focused on changing hearts and minds in drug policy, harm reduction, substance use treatment, and drug user rights. We understand that statistics alone rarely change beliefs, and that stories are needed to influence systemic change. We investigate how our guests change pathos in their work.
