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":"2026-07-29T18:17:38.778026+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/dopey-on-the-dark-comedy-of-drug-addiction-422100"},"episode":{"title":"Happy Birthday Heart Attack Doug Tuesday Teaser!","slug":"happy-birthday-heart-attack-doug-tuesday-teaser","published_at":"2026-07-28T09:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/dopey-on-the-dark-comedy-of-drug-addiction-422100/happy-birthday-heart-attack-doug-tuesday-teaser","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/f2518226-f321-4890-b55a-6b9dc3b43fd7/audio/128/default.mp3?aid=rss_feed&awCollectionId=2946d116-c208-4c76-b441-a9811c7f3897&awEpisodeId=f2518226-f321-4890-b55a-6b9dc3b43fd7&feed=OC5bZYjc","summary":"TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – Dopey Tuesday theme song 01:32 – Heart Attack Doug’s birthday show begins 02:05 – Doug lies about his age 03:27 – White hair, beards and looking Jewish 04:22 – Ironworker John and the mysterious barber 05:52 – Generic inspirational texts become “personalized” 07:57 – Remembering Ray the Clamour and Crosstalk Larry 09:02 – Doug’s birthday plans 10:19 – Italian food and gluten-free chicken parmesan 12:39 – Does Doug actually have a gluten problem? 13:23 – Doug returns to the beach recovery meeting 14:59 – Rating Doug’s recovery—and Dave’s meeting share 16:04 – Are people tired of the Chris Christmas episode? 17:20 – Spotify reacts to Doug’s extremely white teeth 19:42 – Patreon comments, San Francisco and Surrealismo 21:53 – DopeyCon plans and Beatles versus Stones 22:52 – Should drugs be decriminalized and regulated? 24:19 – Marijuana, psychosis and Doug’s brother-in-law 24:55 – Great South Bay Music Festival 25:17 – Little Feat’s “Willin’” and memories of Dave’s mother 26:38 – Legal weed being sold at the festival 27:18 – Happy birthday messages for Heart Attack Doug 27:53 – Patreon preview: weed, voicemails, Ray versus Larry and DopeyCon 28:55 – “I Wanna Be Good So Bad” SEO KEYWORDS Dopey Podcast, Dopey Tuesday, Heart Attack Doug, Happy Birthday Heart Attack Doug, Dave Manheim, addiction podcast, recovery podcast, sobriety podcast, funny recovery podcast, Alcoholics Anonymous, AA meetings, drug decriminalization, marijuana psychosis, cannabis-induced psychosis, legal weed, kratom legalization, DopeyCon, Great South Bay Music Festival, Little Feat, My Morning Jacket, Sublime, Post Malone, Jelly Roll, gluten intolerance, gluten-free chicken parmesan, Beatles versus Rolling Stones, addiction recovery community, Chris O’Connor, Dopey Nation, drugs addic…","meta_description":"TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – Dopey Tuesday theme song 01:32 – Heart Attack Doug’s birthday show begins 02:05 – Doug lies about his age 03:27 – White hair, beards an…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":1839,"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/happy-birthday-heart-attack-doug-tuesday-teaser/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/happy-birthday-heart-attack-doug-tuesday-teaser.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
