  1. #210- Brian Townsend: Fentanyl's Deadly Toll | Retired DEA Agent’s Mission in Drug Awareness and Education Jackson Huff 55:03

This week, I had the privilege of engaging in an eye-opening conversation with Brian Townsend, a retired DEA Supervisory Special Agent and former Resident Agent in Charge. Brian shared his inspiring mission to tackle the drug crisis through innovative educational initiatives. Here’s a glimpse of what we discussed:

  • Brian’s Journey: From leading the DEA office in Springfield to developing impactful fentanyl awareness programs.
  • The Fentanyl Crisis: The harsh realities of the fentanyl epidemic and its devastating effects on communities.
  • Education and Prevention: How vital education and proactive measures are in reducing drug-related deaths.
  • Eagle 6 Training: Brian’s new venture offering leadership training and consulting, alongside fentanyl education.
  • Only 2 MG, Inc.: A nonprofit organization founded by Brian, dedicated to educating the public about the dangers of fentanyl.
  • Current Drug Threats: The increased danger posed by today’s drug supply, including fentanyl, and the crucial need to reduce drug demand.
  • Awareness Gaps: The widespread lack of awareness among parents and students about the evolving drug landscape.

I am in admissions and advising by profession where I speak with students every day about their future and goals. I have spent a decade learning peoples life stories and what makes them tick. So, a few years ago I decided to take that passion for people and make a podcast. Through this I have been able to speak with a lot of amazing people. People like Bob Eubanks (The Newlywed Game), Daphne Maxwell Reid (Fresh Prince of Bel-Air), Maddie Musselman (2x Olympic Gold Medalist), Francois Clemmons (Mister Rogers' Neighborhood), and countless others.
