Dopey Podcast is the world’s greatest podcast on drugs, addiction and dumb shit. Chris and I were two IV heroin addicts who loved to talk about all the coke we smoked, snorted and shot, all the pills we ate, smoked, all the weed we smoked and ate, all the booze we consumed and all the consequences we suffered. After making the show for 2 and a half years, Chris tragically relapsed and died from a fentanyl overdose. Dopey continued on, at first to mourn the horrible loss of Chris, but then to continue our mission - which was at its core, to keep addicts and alcoholics company. Whether to laugh at our time in rehab, or cry at the worst missteps we made, Dopey tells the truth about drugs, addiction and recovery. We continually mine the universe for stories rife with debauchery and highlight serious drug taking and alcoholism. We also examine different paths toward addiction recovery. We shine a light on harm reduction and medication assisted treatment. We talk with celebrities and nobodies and stockpile stories to be the greatest one stop shop podcast on all things drugs, addiction, recovery and comedy pathfinding the route to the heart of the opioid epidemic.

It is time to take the responsibility of helping ourselves to help our community. As we save each others lives we come to realize how beautiful our love is and have hope for a better life. That future is here today as a deadly prankster makes its way into the drug supply that we relied on to fill the hole we all share. I stand at the age of 67, 36 years sober with terminal cancer holding a light up at the end of the tunnel. My Higher Powers grace gives me an opportunity to work with others.

I work with teams of individuals who have engaged over 3000 people resuscitated by local paramedics in the last six years. We are all people in recovery. When someone is resuscitated they tell us if they would like to attempt detox and recovery or their if they choose to continue using. We choose to support each person regardless of their intentions. We have trained camps of unsheltered addicts to use Naloxone and have recorded hundreds of overdose reversals in community.

As people living with a chronic illness that is prone to relapsing-remitting patterns we are empowered today with tools we never had access to in the past; let-alone the proper training.
