Hey guys.
It's been a great series. I plan to release my 'pimp' interviews over the coming days as Extras, but here's this -- some more interviews from inside The Gubbio Project and with a Narcan courier named Antonio Chavez, who runs a non-profit called 'Lost Soul Courier Collective,' which delivers Narcan on-demand to anywhere in San Francisco, 7 days a week. I plan to use the final YouTube cut as an opportunity to raise funds for both non-profits, as I believe they are genuinely doing good work, but for now they'll live on Patreon.
Rarely do interviews make me emotional but the longer one with Antonio here really did .. and got me thinking about the ways I've been conditioned to exile friends and loved ones who are struggling with drugs, and how 'Just Say No,' abstinence logic has been embedded into my psyche for so long and effectively caused me to dehumanize 'hard' drug users who may have been in dire need of care and/or support.
Anyways, this series has been intense and eye-opening for me as a creator. I really hope you guys enjoyed it.
Until next time,
AC.
