We learn of his foray into recovery and why it didn't work out for him. We also hear about an Australian heroin adventure involving prostitutes, and more cocaine then you could shake a stick at. Then dear friend of the show Aurora calls in to give an update on her less glamorous but more sober life in LA complete with new sponsees, Game of Thrones predictions and more. Plus Ismael's first show appearance, voicemails, a new Chopped and Screwed, and other classic Dopey shenanigans on a truly, truly extra special episode of Dopey!
