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":"Tuesday Teaser:  Action Bronson, Jeff Ross, and the Heart Attack Doug Meltdown Special","slug":"tuesday-teaser-action-bronson-jeff-ross-and-the-heart-attack-doug-meltdown-special","published_at":"2026-05-19T09:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/dopey-on-the-dark-comedy-of-drug-addiction-422100/tuesday-teaser-action-bronson-jeff-ross-and-the-heart-attack-doug-meltdown-special","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/a1b961e2-6650-4c3d-9d07-af2fd35701c2/audio/128/default.mp3?aid=rss_feed&awCollectionId=2946d116-c208-4c76-b441-a9811c7f3897&awEpisodeId=a1b961e2-6650-4c3d-9d07-af2fd35701c2&feed=OC5bZYjc","summary":"Timestamp Notes 00:00 – Intro / Heart Attack Doug Returns Dave introduces Heart Attack Doug Doug claims he’s “coming in hot” Doug threatens unnamed enemies in the comments 01:45 – Patreon Drama & Todd/Tude Beef Doug upset about being attacked online Dave tries to calm him down Discussion about criticism from listeners 03:20 – Meetings & Recovery Talk Doug accuses Dave of dominating meetings Dave compares himself to The Godfather Doug says Team Doug is growing 05:00 – Dopey Short Film Festival Dave announces the Dopey Short Film Festival Mountainside sponsoring Discussion about short films vs movies Doug claims he could win the festival 07:00 – Doug as Bruce Willis Doug says he’s an undiscovered movie star Dave challenges Doug to pitch a film idea Doug completely fails to explain his movie 09:15 – Gypsy Movie Idea Dave pitches a fake short film: “Two Weeks, Doug and the Gypsy” Doug gets robbed by a psychic gypsy Doug hates the idea 10:30 – Why the Film Festival Matters Dave explains creativity and recovery Hobbies, filmmaking, and purpose in sobriety Idea of rehabs teaching video editing 12:00 – Action Bronson at Katz’s Dave talks about Action Bronson performing at Katz’s Huge crowd and insane energy Susan’s birthday weekend begins 13:30 – Vermont / Music on the Mountain Dave emcees jam band festival Karina Rykman, Anders Osborne, Eggy, Daniel Donato Susan introduces a band on stage 15:00 – Patreon vs Public Episodes Doug explains how deep he is in Dopey Nation Dave says Patreon gets the real gossip Patreon discussion becomes ridiculous 17:00 – Reading Patreon Comments Some listeners love Doug Others openly hate him Thomas Jacobs repeatedly attacks Doug 20:00 – Doug Hurt by Listener Criticism Doug genuinely upset by comments Dave explains that listeners used to attack h…","meta_description":"Timestamp Notes 00:00 – Intro / Heart Attack Doug Returns Dave introduces Heart Attack Doug Doug claims he’s “coming in hot” Doug threatens unnamed enemie…","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/tuesday-teaser-action-bronson-jeff-ross-and-the-heart-attack-doug-meltdown-special/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/tuesday-teaser-action-bronson-jeff-ross-and-the-heart-attack-doug-meltdown-special.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
