This week on Dopey! We check in after Dopeywood! And talks about going back to meetings, realizing they don’t need to be brilliant to be good.

Dave shares a story about going to a Howard Stern vinyl party, meeting Baba Booey and Chuck D, and telling his Stern story while playing Neil Young. He reflects on being relentless in both recovery and building Dopey.

The episode features Sarah Clark, a lawyer in recovery, who shares her story. She grew up with a drug-addicted father and started using as a teenager. Her addiction escalated from alcohol and Xanax to pills and eventually IV heroin. Within months, she was shooting in her neck and forehead and living a chaotic life of hustling, stealing, and bouncing between rehabs.

After developing a severe abscess that led to losing part of her butt, she still couldn’t stop. She went to treatment multiple times before finally committing. She got sober, worked the steps, and rebuilt her life.

Today, Sarah is a lawyer, married, raising her stepchildren, and has adopted her husband’s daughter, breaking the cycle of addiction in her family.

ALl that and MORE, MORE, MORE, MORE on a super duper Dopey show!
