Executive Producer Eric Newman & Consulting Producer Barry Meier sat down with me to talk about Netflix's Painkiller, the new drama that looks at the OxyContin crisis. Meier is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist who previously wrote for The New York Times, and he wrote Pain Killer, the investigative story about Purdue and their drug, OxyContin. Stream Painkiller on Netflix: www.netflix.com/Painkiller Synopsis: A fictionalized retelling of events, PAINKILLER is a scripted limited series that explores some of the origins and aftermath of the opioid crisis in America, highlighting the stories of the perpetrators, victims, and truth-seekers whose lives are forever altered by the invention of OxyContin. An examination of crime, accountability, and the systems that have repeatedly failed hundreds of thousands of Americans, PAINKILLER is based on the book PAIN KILLER by Barry Meier and the New Yorker Magazine article ‘The Family That Built the Empire of Pain’ by Patrick Radden Keefe. Executive produced by Eric Newman, Pete Berg, Alex Gibney, and showrunners/creators Micah Fitzerman-Blue & Noah Harpster.
