About this episode
CNBC's Carl Quintanilla brings on Danny Strong, executive producer, writer and director of Hulu’s ‘Dopesick’ for the latest installment of "Binge." The Emmy-nominated miniseries starring Michael Keaton brings the opioid crisis and crimes of the Sackler family into full view. Strong discusses the challenges he faced pitching the project, the pressure that comes with telling real-life stories, competition in a content-saturated landscape, and how ‘Dopesick’ aims to redefine the stigma around addiction.
