Addiction Monologue

Addiction, language and the politics of recovery. This shorter episode is a reflective monologue exploring addiction as both a personal and social experience. The discussion challenges traditional terminology and models of addiction, instead examining different relationships with alcohol and how language shapes the way substance use is understood. The episode also includes poetry, and introduces the programme’s new intro and outro music created by Shamanorak Shamaminal and Jasamine Jackdaw.
