Summary

In Episode 155, Brian aka the crackhead lawyer returns to the show to celebrate getting Dopey finally into Vice. It's all thanks to writer extrordinaire, Emily Sullivan, who comes on the show and talks of her love for needles, her children and how she came to write about Dopey. Dave tells about some possibly relapse-esque behavior. Jeremy Turner leaves a very Dopey Voicemail involving crack, crystal meth, prostitutes and his underwear. Brian gets super emotional about Chris, and Dave's dad pops in to say tootles. All that and much, much more, on a very special episode of Dopey.
