This week on Dopey! Long time friend of the show and Dopey's first celebrity guest ever, Danny Boy O'Connor of The House of Pain returns to celebrate 15 years in recovery! We hear all about his sordid tale from the depths of depravity and back to a happy, joyous and free life. Plus Dopey Dres aka Amy Dresner comes back to Dopey to tell us all about her experience around the Covid age, recovery and another mini monologue about her vagina. All of that plus Alan, emails, reviews and more on a brand spanking, and extremely special new episode of Dopey. 

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!
