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":"Nikki Sixx on Heroin, Sobriety, Mötley Crüe, The Heroin Diaries & Recovery | Dopey Greatest Hits","slug":"nikki-sixx-on-heroin-sobriety-m-tley-cr-e-the-heroin-diaries-recovery-dopey-greatest-hits","published_at":"2026-06-18T09:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/dopey-on-the-dark-comedy-of-drug-addiction-422100/nikki-sixx-on-heroin-sobriety-m-tley-cr-e-the-heroin-diaries-recovery-dopey-greatest-hits","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/1a7b0cb3-07f0-4ac9-8d84-74b5b3bf0d58/audio/128/default.mp3?aid=rss_feed&awCollectionId=2946d116-c208-4c76-b441-a9811c7f3897&awEpisodeId=1a7b0cb3-07f0-4ac9-8d84-74b5b3bf0d58&feed=OC5bZYjc","summary":"Timestamp Notes 00:00 – Ray Brown’s “Home Sweet Heroine” opens the replay with classic Dopey parody lyrics. 01:29 – Dave introduces Dopey Greatest Hits and explains that Patreon voted for Nikki Sixx over Danny Trejo, DMC, and Hank Azaria. 02:15 – Story about getting nervous that Nikki Sixx’s team would object to Ray Brown’s Motley Crüe parody. 03:52 – Dave celebrates “Home Sweet Heroine” and calls Ray Brown the Hemingway of the Dopey world. 05:00 – Dave talks about working Step Eight with a sponsee and making amends. 06:18 – Dave jokes that his father complained he talked too much about gratitude without thanking him. 07:00 – Jules the Cocaine Bear calls in with a drunken coke-fueled party-crashing story. 08:45 – Jules offers cocaine to another guest and is accused of trying to sell drugs. 09:45 – Partygoers throw him out while smashing him into door frames. 10:45 – Fearing an attack, Jules grabs a switchblade and walks straight into a policeman. 11:40 – Police arrest him but unknowingly return his hidden cocaine inside an asthma inhaler. 12:15 – Jules flushes the coke down the jail toilet and eventually beats the knife charge. 12:55 – Kimber King joins Dave to discuss comments from her replay episode. 14:00 – Debate over whether Suboxone tastes terrible or like orange candy. 15:30 – Discussion of Dave’s infamous “peed my pants walking to Harlem” story. 17:00 – Crypto talk and warnings about gambling tendencies in recovery. 18:20 – Kimber talks about the Wednesday Dopey Zoom and singing disasters. 19:30 – Debate about ads and whether listeners complain too much. 20:00 – Kimber recalls her meth vape and saline mixture containing fentanyl, cocaine, ketamine, and Xanax. 21:30 – Dave and Kimber discuss Harvey visiting Alan at the film festival. 22:40 – AJ apologizes for cr…","meta_description":"Timestamp Notes 00:00 – Ray Brown’s “Home Sweet Heroine” opens the replay with classic Dopey parody lyrics. 01:29 – Dave introduces Dopey Greatest Hits an…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":6859,"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/nikki-sixx-on-heroin-sobriety-m-tley-cr-e-the-heroin-diaries-recovery-dopey-greatest-hits/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/nikki-sixx-on-heroin-sobriety-m-tley-cr-e-the-heroin-diaries-recovery-dopey-greatest-hits.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
