This week on Dopey! Dave returns from Madison, Wisconsin after recording for Recovery.com and recounts a miserable night wandering the airport like a sleep-deprived junkie without benzos. After reading Spotify comments about the Jamie Lee Curtis episode, Dave plays a wild listener voicemail about smoking crack in Chicago and jumping out of a moving car. Then an email about meth, toads, and a nearly poisoned dog leads Dave to discover the word anhedonia.

The episode’s main event is a raw interview with Faith Hill (not the country singer)—a former meth dealer from Missouri who started smoking meth at 14, sold half-pounds while carrying guns, survived a suicide attempt with fentanyl-pressed Xanax, and ultimately rebuilt her life after losing all her teeth to addiction. Faith shares stories of violence, loss, paranoia, and how she finally found recovery.

ALL THAT AND MORE MORE MORE! on a brand new spanking non country music episode of dopey!

We also get into Susan’s new 3D printer, my horrible track record with pets (including a blind goldfish that’s somehow still alive), Doug’s eBay guitar hustle, and Facebook banning a listener for listing his drugs of choice.

This week on the Total Dopey Replay we go way back to Episode 17 with the great Joe Schrank. Me, Chris and Joe get into addiction policy, sober living, relapse, harm reduction, AA, and whether Dopey is actually bad for the recovery community. It gets smart, stupid, and very old school Dopey. Plus Joe tells an all-time disgusting story about getting hammered at USC and puking Cajun curly fries all over some poor girl. If you like early Dopey with me and Chris figuring it out in real time, this is a good one.

JAMIE COMES ON ABOUT 30 Minutes in!

This week on Dopey! Jamie Lee Turner is BACK! And so is JEREMY TURNER! We read emails, play a crazy whale watching tripping voicemail, a kicking kratom email and then we get to the amazing and fabulous Jamie Lee Curtis!

Jamie brings the recovery!  Her awakening, daily routine (3 daily readings + 3 gratitudes/fears/attribute texts to chains), defects (people-pleasing/fawning/fear/confrontation avoidance), agency from sobriety, ideas/production success (Scarpetta series with Nicole Kidman, Blumhouse deal, Mother Nature eco-horror). She praises Dopey as profound/Nobel-level work, critiques self-deprecation as humiliation (Hannah Gadsby quote), and shares Bear role insights (Donna's sobriety arc). She was super great!

Jeremy Turner (Oregon by way of Louisiana) calls in: meth mites (not mental, from gorse plant?), recent DUI/car tow in Vegas, heavy drinking relapse after 8 sober months, current meth use (snorting/smoking, no shooting), new Long Island sponsor "on break," job painting, girlfriend losing hope, fentanyl panic after intentional test puff, desire for abstinence but chasing tail cycle. Dave urges sleep, sponsor reconnection, Dopey Zoom check-ins.

ALL THAT AND MORE< MORE, MORE!!!! on this weeks BRAND NEW EPISODE of that GOOD OLD DOPEY SHOW!

This week on "Dopey's Greatest Hits" replay of episode 240 with Jessica Kent (prison YouTuber and recovering addict), recorded during the early pandemic from Dave’s attic. Dave opens with current (2020-era) updates: promoting an upcoming Dopey Wood 2 comedy show in LA (featuring Marc Maron, Bobby Lee, Margaret Cho, etc.), the Dopey Foundation, Patreon perks, free Narcan/test strips offers, and the ongoing Dopey sticker contest. He reads recent Spotify comments praising/recapping previous episodes (Brace Belden, nitrous stories, etc.), plays a listener voicemail about teenage nitrous abuse, then transitions into the main replay.

The core interview covers Jessica Kent’s life: early alcohol/pill use starting at ~12–13 in upstate New York, progression to IV heroin at 17, selling drugs (weed → heroin → meth), magazine subscription sales crews while on the run, $30k+ dealer debts, robberies by partners, running from charges, accidental meth introduction in Arkansas, pregnancy and arrest (3 weeks pregnant, 2 oz meth + gun charge), giving birth in prison while in leg chains, fighting for custody of her daughter Micah post-release, white-knuckle sobriety driven by DHS requirements/hair-follicle tests, eventual full custody, and building a new life (YouTube, podcast, degree). She describes prison violence (fights over petty things like 50¢ pizza sauce, beating a child sex offender), disdain for 12-step culture in her experience, identity crisis after getting clean, and how motherhood became her anchor (not 12 steps or traditional recovery programs).

Dave closes with his father (the recurring "sweet father" segment) reading iTunes reviews, kvelling over rankings, discussing privilege critiques, financial responsibility in recovery, and playing Bob Forrest’s “Comfortably Numb” cover + “Good So Bad” to end.

ALL THAT MORE MORE MORE on the newest Old replay episode of that good old dopey show...

On this Dopey Wednesday, I read some Dopey Nation emails + Spotify comments, play a killer voicemail from Mick Popham (dope-sick train ride, shitting in a stairwell, 20 years later: gratitude), and then I’m joined by returning guest Hannah Sward (Strip / “Summer of Men”).

Hannah gets super real about trauma, dissociation, and how old stuff gets triggered—plus how meth took over in LA (dealers, chaos, dark nights, “Speed in the Bushes,” all of it). We also get into her steamy Substack and the whole question of casual sex in recovery—what feels free, what feels risky, and what it costs.

PLUS MORE!

All that and much much  more on today's Wednesday Dose of Dopey!

On this Dopey Tuesday, Dave and Heart Attack Doug remember Cross Talk Larry — the vegetarian, money-collecting, sweat-soaked meeting staple who felt like he’d always been there… until he wasn’t.

They talk about the fleeting nature of lifein AA, the uncomfortable debate about flowers and donations, and whether sobriety protects you from dying (spoiler: it doesn’t).

Plus:

The air fryer conspiracy.

Raw chicken legs.

A relapse email that hits hard.

The realization that your mind can still try to destroy you — even sober.

And Dave puts Doug on the spot about sponsorship, step work, and what’s actually keeping him sober now.

Dopeywood 2 tix: https://www.showclix.com/event/dopeywood-2026

A Monday Dopey Total Replay where Dave sets up classic Dopey Episode 16—the one with Chris’s legendary “city in my boxers” LSD trip and Mark’s long, chaotic prank call to a detox intake. Along the way Dave reads Spotify comments (including kratom taper talk and new listeners coming from the Billy Strings episode), shares a voicemail story about meth, a blow-up with in-laws, and a late-season Sonoran Desert toad that leads to a 5-MeO-DMT “purge.” The replay captures early Dopey’s exhausted, bickering chemistry—cookies vs donuts, quitting cigarettes, Gloucester “chowder” nonsense—and Dave closes by reflecting on the early origin of “toodles,” asking for voicemails, problems, and more phony phone calls.
