Published: Oct. 15, 2022, 12:54 a.m.

This week on Dopey! We are joined by podcaster, stand up comedy legend, actor, writer, musician and Dopey super friend, Marc Maron! Marc was recently in a cool new movie all about alcoholism, called To Leslie. We talk all about it, and how its themes of alcoholism and codependency hit so close to home for Marc. Then we talked about how Marc stayed sober and lived through the grief of losing his partner to Leukemia during the heart of Covid. PLUS- A total Dopeycon recap with my dad, plus voicemails from Annie Elle, Brady and more on a brand new episode of the good old Dopey show,\n\xa0\nMORE ABOUT DOPEY:\nDopey Podcast is the world\u2019s 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!
