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. We shine a light on harm reduction and medication assisted treatment. We talk with celebrities and nobodies and stockpile stories to be the greatest one stop shop podcast on all things drugs, addiction, recovery and comedy pathfinding the route to the heart of the opioid epidemic.","last_synced_at":null,"page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/dopey-on-the-dark-comedy-of-drug-addiction-422100"},"episode":{"title":"Dopey 583: Kidnapped at 11, Running Naked from the Cops on Meth, Heroin, Crack, Human Trafficked, Redemption with Keta Loren","slug":"dopey-583-kidnapped-at-11-running-naked-from-the-cops-on-meth-heroin-crack-human-trafficked-redemption-with-keta-loren","published_at":"2026-05-15T09:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/dopey-on-the-dark-comedy-of-drug-addiction-422100/dopey-583-kidnapped-at-11-running-naked-from-the-cops-on-meth-heroin-crack-human-trafficked-redemption-with-keta-loren","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/dopey-on-the-dark-comedy-of-drug-addiction-422100","url":"https://www.dopeypodcast.com","audio_url":"https://pscrb.fm/rss/p/injector.simplecastaudio.com/2946d116-c208-4c76-b441-a9811c7f3897/episodes/cd1941a5-deb9-4995-a9e9-133b33e04f21/audio/128/default.mp3?aid=rss_feed&awCollectionId=2946d116-c208-4c76-b441-a9811c7f3897&awEpisodeId=cd1941a5-deb9-4995-a9e9-133b33e04f21&feed=OC5bZYjc","summary":"Comprehensive Timestamp Notes 1:07 — Oro Recovery ad read 2:23 — Dave opens the show, Susan’s 8th birthday, Vermont trip plans 3:00 — Music on the Mountain lineup talk: Karina Rykman, Eggy, Anders Osborne, Daniel Donato, Trey band members 4:15 — Narcan/fentanyl strip giveaway reminder 4:45 — Patreon, YouTube support, Dopey community talk 5:15 — Listener email about 60 days sober off freebase, Xanax, and Suboxone 6:30 — Emotional story about listener’s dog Hesh dying 8:15 — Dave spirals about loving Winnie too much and fearing her death 9:20 — Linda’s birthday and the Winnie-shaped brass lamp 10:15 — Mountainside ad and Dopey Short Film Festival announcement 11:25 — Ben Croxton voicemail begins 12:00 — Googling “where to buy heroin in Atlanta” 12:45 — Meth psychosis coworker hides in closet all day 13:40 — Coke shooting story and hallucinated kangaroo 15:30 — Dave reacts to Ben’s kangaroo story 16:45 — Braeburn ad read 17:35 — Patreon and Spotify comments section 18:00 — Margaret Cho episode comments 19:50 — Shooter Jennings and Hank Williams III discussion 20:30 — Qigong and meditation comments 21:20 — Jason Ricci bisexual misunderstanding callback 22:30 — Gas station drugs / John Oliver mention 24:00 — More Margaret Cho praise and Spotify comments 26:20 — Workit Health ad read 27:10 — Listener email about meth-addicted stepdaughter 29:00 — Dave discusses AA vs NA and treatment options 31:30 — Recovery Unplugged ad read 33:00 — Kata Lauren interview begins 33:45 — Growing up in foster care and changing her name 35:30 — Fighting, anger, and California Youth Authority 37:00 — Parents’ addiction and abuse 40:00 — House fire kills four siblings 41:30 — Caring for schizophrenic father as an adult 42:00 — Best friend dies in Mexico 44:00 — First meth use at age 11 46:00 — Bl…","meta_description":"Comprehensive Timestamp Notes 1:07 — Oro Recovery ad read 2:23 — Dave opens the show, Susan’s 8th birthday, Vermont trip plans 3:00 — Music on the Mountai…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":10863,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/dopey-on-the-dark-comedy-of-drug-addiction-422100/episodes/dopey-583-kidnapped-at-11-running-naked-from-the-cops-on-meth-heroin-crack-human-trafficked-redemption-with-keta-loren/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/dopey-on-the-dark-comedy-of-drug-addiction-422100/dopey-583-kidnapped-at-11-running-naked-from-the-cops-on-meth-heroin-crack-human-trafficked-redemption-with-keta-loren.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
