Dopey 273: Bob Forrest and the New Year’s Day Dopey! Heroin, Coke, Recovery, Trauma, Detox, Rehab

This week on a very special New Year’s Day episode of Dopey! We welcome Dopey super friend Bob Forrest back to the show! He talks about the current covid situation, and the radical revolution that is sobriety. He also tells a crazy story about when he was homeless in New York for about two weeks. We also hear a profound voicemail, a great tune from Dopey Mailman Damon, and Dave talks about his own struggles working a program, and suffers a bit of euphoric recall in the process.Happy Fucking New Years Dopey Nation! More About Dopey: Dopey Podcast is the world’s greatest podcast on drugs, addiction and dumb shit. 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! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
