Five Big Stars for dopey
Currently listening to Dopey from the beginning and it’s hard to resist the urge to write an email or a review when they ask at the end of every episode! I’ve been changed by getting to spend all these hours with dave and chris, and knowing that dopey is still going after chris’s death and still helping people makes me so happy. the nature of the show being so honest about drug history and drug use and being about joy and stupidness and connecting across that… it’s so special! recovery groups are great of course but the requisite disavowal of the funny parts of the depths of drug use creates a kinda culture where you’re not able to be that part of yourself. and any closing off of parts of yourself is a kinda internal dishonesty in my view. that’s what dopey feels like to me, it’s really honest. i love when the story is great but it’s also depraved and bizarre and they get to talk about all those things and how they feel now in hindsight or how their feelings were so different before. connecting across the messy complexity of ourselves, not just the parts of us that are 100% committed to recovery that’s a million miles from those stories and that part of our lives, which sometimes can feel like the most welcome parts in recovery communities. recounting the war stories with a friend is more accepting of the totality of our lives and that to me makes recovery seem more possible. i have become rly evangelical abt this podcast! trying to get a scottish version of dopey to happen - these lands have tales of their own

This podcast is hilarious. The anecdotes they tell about themselves in each episode make me feel like I'm not alone. The show also has great spontaneous flow. It doesn't appear to be rehearsed or rigid in its format. The Dopies have done a great job creating and bringing such a sensitive,...Read full review »
