Your Turn to Talk: Ask the Mayor, plus International Overdose Awareness Day

This Is Nashville

Every Thursday, we open up the phone lines because it's Your Turn to Talk. We never know what topics will come up when you call in to ask the mayor a question, but it's always an interesting discussion. Later on, we look at the basics of overdose prevention and learn what local organizations and law enforcement are doing to strengthen the overdose prevention strategy of harm reduction.

Guests:

• Freddie O'Connell | Mayor, Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County
• Charles Cuthbert | Regional Overdose Prevention Specialist, STARS Nashville
• Sgt. Michael Hotz | Overdose Unit, Metro Nashville Police Department
