Dopey: On the Dark Comedy of Drug AddictionAbout this episode
This week on Dopey! In a doozy of an episode, we are joined by my friend Jay who tells his ridiculously epic Dopey journey. Jay grew up in bucolic Sayville, Long Island and fell into the classic addict abyss of alcohol, drugs, violence and crime. It all culminated in a crazy lucrative business selling weed, coke, pills, heroin and eventually fentanyl. From there it went as downhill as it could go, to treatments in Florida where he got involved in the infamous practice of body brokering. Tune in this week to one of the Dopiest stories we've ever had the privilege to tell. Stay Strong Dopey Nation and fucking toodles for Chris. More About Dopey: 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 .
