This wee on the Tuesday teaser,! Dave shares on the upcoming DopeyCon 6, crash keto diets, and getting mistaken for Ted Cruz at the Outlaw Music Festival show at Jones Beach. We get updates on recovery, Dopey Day (August 16th — Chris’s birthday), and a Patreon-only conversation with returning guest Erin Khar, aka the “strung out author.” Erin talks about winning an election, public stigma, her recovery, and what it’s like to be gotcha’d in NYC politics. Plus, Dave reviews the Outlaw Music Fest (Wilco ruled, Dylan sucked, and Willie was old but lovable), vents about smelly sandwiches and weed vapes, and throws out a call for another great woman guest at DopeyCon.
