Dopey 3: A Rollercoaster of Rehab, Overdoses, and Resilience

It's about revisiting the past without getting high.
Have you ever wondered what it's like to hit rock bottom and somehow find humor in the chaos? In this unforgettable episode of Dopey, hosts Dave and Chris take listeners on a wild ride through their past drug experiences, from running away from rehab to overdosing on GHB in Harlem. With their trademark blend of dark humor and raw honesty, they recount stories that are both hilarious and heartbreaking.
Imagine a tenacious bottle of Mountain Blast Powerade playing a surprising role in one of their escapades—yes, it’s that kind of episode. Chris and Dave have been through it all: dozens of rehabs, years in jail, and countless overdoses. Their ability to laugh about these experiences is both shocking and oddly comforting. But the laughter takes on a bittersweet note as they reflect on Chris's tragic overdose in 2018.
This episode isn't just about the past; it's also about survival and the ongoing battle with addiction. The hosts discuss their recovery journeys, the challenges they face, and how they manage to stay sober. Whether you're struggling with addiction yourself or know someone who is, this episode offers a candid look at the highs and lows of life in recovery. It's a mix of debauchery, resilience, and heartfelt moments that will leave you both laughing and reflecting.
Tune in for a story that’s as real as it gets, and maybe even share your own experiences with the Dopey community.
