Dopey Replay #34: Dave Smuggles Ibogaine from Canada, Big Bird on Heroin, Coke Before Court & OG Dopey with Chris

from Dopey: On the Dark Comedy of Drug Addiction · host Dave & Chris

PATREON: www.patreon.com/dopeypodcast This Dopey Replay goes back to Episode 34, a classic early Dave-and-Chris-only episode packed with old-school Dopey chaos. Dave opens by reflecting on the early days of the show, Chris’s role in shaping it, and how tiny the original Dopey Nation was back then. Before the replay, Dave plays a voicemail from Eric about doing huge lines of coke in the courthouse bathroom before a DUI hearing, then reads comments from Patreon and Spotify about the previous replay.   The original episode is pure OG Dopey: Dave and Chris talk about wanting listeners to email them so they’ll do Facebook Live in disguises, read old listener names, and dig into stories from active addiction. Chris shares stories about drinking and driving, puking into his shirt so a state trooper wouldn’t see, shooting coke paranoia, translating his Japanese girlfriend’s emails, and burning his arm in boiling water while drunk.   Dave tells some of his all-time early Dopey stories: working children’s parties while completely loaded, including showing up as a Power Ranger and then as a disastrous Big Bird with bare hairy legs; getting high while trying to host music TV interviews; insulting Bob Weir by only asking about Jerry Garcia; and finally the infamous Ibogaine story, where he arranged for Ibogaine to be shipped from Europe to Canada, smuggled it back across the border taped to his leg, tripped at home, met a “loser alien,” and still got high the next day. You'v e heard me tell these stories hundreds of times - but this is the first time... Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
