Margaret Cho's Wild Ride Through Addiction and Recovery on Dopey 204

As she's walking along, for some reason, I don't know, the wind blew and her hat flies off her head and goes right into the water.
What happens when you mix the comedic genius of Margaret Cho with raw tales of addiction and recovery? You get an episode of Dopey that’s as hilarious as it is eye-opening. In this episode, Margaret Cho doesn't hold back as she shares her rollercoaster journey through substance abuse and the road to sobriety. From her bizarre encounter with Anna Nicole Smith's ice sculpture to getting hooked on pills through dubious online pharmacies, Margaret's stories are both shocking and relatable.
But it’s not just about the laughs; Margaret also opens up about the darker side of addiction, discussing how her love for Roxy and Klonopin impacted her marriage and overall life. The conversation then shifts to a broader discussion on harm reduction versus abstinence, giving listeners a nuanced view of different recovery paths. Plus, you'll hear about the Send Me a Friend program and its role in supporting those in recovery.
Dave and Chris wrap up with a chat about the Park City Songwriter Festival, exploring how addiction affects the music industry. This episode is a wild mix of humor, honesty, and valuable insights that you won’t want to miss.
