Interview: Journalist, author, candidate Beth Macy

Beth Macy did a sitdown with me for this week’s “Street Knowledge” podcast.

Macy is a triple threat: journalist, bestselling author (Dopesick), and now, congressional candidate – running for the Democratic Party nomination in the Sixth District in Virginia.

We talked at length about her work on Dopesick and her most recent book, Paper Girl, which has the hook of Macy revisiting her rural Ohio hometown to try to figure out how it went so MAGA in her years away.

The conversation then shifts to the impact of NAFTA and globalization on Appalachian economies, and how the job losses factored into the opioid and heroin crises here in our part of Virginia.

We wrap with a rundown of where we are politically, and Macy’s priorities if elected.
