Ozarks at Large for Monday, September 21, 2020

On today's show, the first day of KUAF's fall on-air fundraiser, we hear about a new data brief that shows the number of Arkansans receiving opioid prescriptions is decreasing while the number of individuals receiving prescriptions for the opioid overdose reversal medication naloxone is increasing. Plus, we speak with John Herrington, the first enrolled member of a Native American tribe to fly in space. And, we head to the Pryor Center archives for a look back at John L. Ferguson's career as the state historian. To make a donation to KUAF, click here.
