Dopey: On the Dark Comedy of Drug Addiction

Jan 22 2022 • 1 hr 55 mins

This week on Dopey! We are joined by the brilliant mind behind the Brutal Recovery Instagram account, Scotland's own- Loz! Join us as we hear Loz's epic journey - starting out on the sheep farm in rural Scotland, taking a long, rough detour through eating disorders and an elite music career winding up rock bottom singing Opera at Yale grad school!  Loz currently resides in London where she teaches music, makes an epic new podcast called Brutal Vulnerability and entertains tens of thousands of addicts and alcoholics with her wicked sense of humor on her legendary IG meme account, BRUTAL RECOVERY. Plus the return of author and unlicensed Dopey advice giver Erin Khar! All this and a tiny bit more on a spanking new episode of Dopey!

More About Dopey:

Dopey Podcast is the world’s 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!
