This episode is dedicated to Chris from Dopey Podcast who passed away this week. We at DDW are huge fans of the show, and he will be greatly missed. A massive amount of love goes out to Chris' family and to Dave in this impossibly difficult time. We're thinking about you.

In this episode Ryan talks about his recent dental emergencies, pain, and dealing with taking opiates in sobriety. How do you know the difference between unmanageable pain requiring painkillers and that crazy voice which is still alive and well in most recovering addicts. Kevin and Patrick offer words of wisdom and encouragement. Kevin offers his own recent experience with pain management.
