Dopey: The Dark Comedy of Drug Addiction | Heroin | Cocaine | Meth | Weed | Drugs | LSD | Recovery | Sobriety

Chris reflects on his intense experiences while incarcerated, Dave's dad calls in to critique dopey again and share his pretend arrest, and we read an email from someone who praises our intelligence - "I was seriously convinced that the amount of drugs you both used would have cut your IQ down by al least half."

Dave and Chris spend the first half of the episode painstakingly dissecting and clarifying their television and ice cream preferences. Dave plays a song about heroin: "Carmelita." Chris tells the story about the time he was the first person on the scene of a DUI where a person was killed. Lastly, we read an email from "C" about the time she blacked out and got her car stuck in a field.

Joe Schrank calls in and gives us an exclusive on his new rehab where patients are allowed to smoke weed, we talk about a recent Artie Lange interaction that went poorly, and Chris shares the details about the last time he got high.

We share stories from our youth, Dave talks about his struggle quitting smoking, Dave criticizes Chris' romantic history, we talk about shooting cocaine and heroin simultaneously in seperate arms, Dave talks about interviewing Bob Weir when he was high (and only asking him about Jerry Garcia), and we play another voice memo from Steve in the UK about huffing and getting taken advantage of by an animal.

Dave and Chris talk about Chabad, smuggling drugs into detox and rehab, hiding drugs and forgetting about them, and getting burned by dealers. Also we read an email from Adrienne about the time a stranger rescued her from getting a DUI, and play a cover of 'Good so Bad' by Adrienne and her husband.

Dave and Chris go old school in this late night, classic episode of Dopey. Topics include drinking while in rehab, using while in public detox, and the worst heroin and alcohol withdrawals. We also play a voice memo from "M" who tells us about an existential crisis he had while tripping on research chemicals during a birthday party at Chucky Cheese.

In this special episode of Dopey we collaborate with the new podcast "Church and Other Drugs." On the show we discuss the worst rehabs, God, fatherhood, tripping on Dramamine/DXM, hallucinogenics in sobriety, and recovery. Also, we read an email from Christina in Central America about an exorcism she received from an AA memeber (it didn't work).

On our very Jewish Christmas special, Dave's dad comes on the show and gives us some insight about Dave's past. Also we read an email from a seasoned addict who has been through the ringer - specifically, he tells us a story about eating bags of dope in the back of a police van while on the way to jail.

In the new "Straigh Outta Rehab" segment, special guest Dave calls in a few days after treatment and tells us about the expereince and how he is doing. Then a man who only wishes to be referred to as "sir" calls in and critques Dopey. Lastly, we play an *amazing* voice memo from Steve in the U.K. entitled "Methadone Piss Vampires"

Scott calls in and tells us about the time he overdosed while working in the emergency room, his time spent in prison, a phish show, his recovery, and how his addiction effected his family. Also we tell a funny Artie Lange story, and read an email from Steve in the UK

Myron calls in and tells us about the counterculture movement, LSD, and the 21 years he spent in a cult in Connecticut. Also, we read a great email from a fan about the first time he tripped on mushrooms with his younger brother.

Eastsyde aka The Eastside Crackhead tells us about his using days in Harlem, his rap career, and his upcoming album, "Pipe Dreams." His most debaucherous story is about a crackhead who has a hole in her neck that Eastsyde may have considered penetrating when he was high.

Dave recounts years of drug use (and other behaviors) that occurred on the couch he just sold to to an unwitting Irishman from Craigslist. We read an email from Billy Baroo, who narrows down the search for Artie Lange. Chris tells the story of how he woke up in an Airport after a blackout. And lastly, we call Dave's friend Ryan - a conspiracy theorist - who believes Prince was ritually sacrificed and did not die of an overdose.

Todd calls in and tells us about how he nearly blew his chance to get unemployment because he was high. Also we read an email from a listener whose girlfriend tried to kill herself and then forgot about it the next day.

Dave and Chris talk about getting high at work, Corey Feldman's performance on the Today Show, and a prostitute named Adina. Also Dave plays " The Gambler" by Kenny Rogers and we play a voice message by Eric.
