And it's like we have been hungry from covid, right like we've been hungry to be able to hug our loved ones and see our friends can do it.
Feeling overwhelmed by the state of the world and how it intersects with addiction and recovery? This episode of 'Dopey' is here to help you make sense of it all. Hosts Dave and Chris sit down with the insightful Dr. Nzinga Harrison and the ever-candid Bob Forrest for a no-holds-barred discussion. They dive into heavy topics like race, relapse, protests, and the impact of Covid-19 on those in recovery. Dr.
Harrison, a psychiatrist and addiction specialist, shares her professional take on the hurdles faced by people in recovery, especially during these socially distanced times. Bob Forrest, a musician with his own history of addiction, offers a raw and personal perspective that adds another layer to the conversation. But it’s not all serious; the episode also celebrates the quirky 45th anniversary of Dock Ellis's psychedelic no-hitter on LSD.
Plus, there's a wild road trip story featuring Anthony from the Chili Peppers that you won't want to miss. And as always, Alan makes an appearance to share his thoughts and read a review. This episode is a blend of serious insights and light-hearted moments, making it a must-listen for anyone touched by addiction or simply curious about the complexities of recovery in today's world.
