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: 'The Return of Dave's Dad - Alan-on Parenting, Guilt, Shame, Blame and hope","slug":"tuesday-teaser-the-return-of-dave-s-dad-alan-on-parenting-guilt-shame-blame-and-hope","published_at":"2026-05-26T09:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/dopey-on-the-dark-comedy-of-drug-addiction-422100/tuesday-teaser-the-return-of-dave-s-dad-alan-on-parenting-guilt-shame-blame-and-hope","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/d09bcf0f-2f37-4c27-b618-4c36997eb95d/audio/128/default.mp3?aid=rss_feed&awCollectionId=2946d116-c208-4c76-b441-a9811c7f3897&awEpisodeId=d09bcf0f-2f37-4c27-b618-4c36997eb95d&feed=OC5bZYjc","summary":"Timestamp Notes 00:00 Intro song and opening jokes about needing another Trump episode 00:55 Dave and Alan return for Dopey Tuesday 01:20 Alan explains why they’re recording outside the Dopey studio 02:00 Discussion about Alan’s Manhattan apartment and “mutual redevelopment” 03:00 History of Howard Beach Buxbaum building the Dopey studio 03:45 Jamie Lee Curtis clips and studio production problems 04:30 Blake Mycoskie / TOMS Shoes episode discussion 05:30 Alan unveils his greenhouse meat-cloning fantasy 06:30 Indoor lobster farming memories 08:00 Alan’s failed business ideas through the years 09:50 Eclipse merchandise and Chinese knife disasters 11:00 Greenhouse land dreams continue 12:00 Dr. Graf’s son betting on the Spurs to win the NBA Finals 13:00 Gambling addiction disclaimer 14:00 Seymour spends thousands on Knicks playoff tickets 15:00 Dave realizes his father never took him anywhere 16:00 Bronx Zoo, Aquarium, museums, and nursing home childhood memories 18:30 Debate about whether expensive Knicks tickets are worth it 20:00 Dave recalls attending Knicks playoff games 21:00 Bitcoin and crypto losses 22:30 Discussion about Spotify and Patreon comments 24:00 Spotify comments section begins 24:20 Kratom sobriety success story 25:00 Vape addiction comment 25:30 Heart Attack Doug controversy comments 26:30 Dave teases emotional Patreon-only comments 27:00 Outro song","meta_description":"Timestamp Notes 00:00 Intro song and opening jokes about needing another Trump episode 00:55 Dave and Alan return for Dopey Tuesday 01:20 Alan explains wh…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":1762,"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-the-return-of-dave-s-dad-alan-on-parenting-guilt-shame-blame-and-hope/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-the-return-of-dave-s-dad-alan-on-parenting-guilt-shame-blame-and-hope.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
