Summary

This week on Dopey! After near felonious persistence, Film and Television icon and drug addict extraordinaire Mackenzie Phillips calls into the show! We get a potent dose of honesty as McKenzie takes us on a wild tour of her storied past. The daughter of The Mommas and the Papa's architect and legendary junky, John Phillips, Mackenzie has seen it, done it, smoked it and shot it all. Appearing in the classic 70's film, American Graffiti, and then starring in Norman Lear's hit TV show, One Day at a Time. We hear the rise and fall of a true Dopey Legend. From sexual trauma, to arrests, recovery, relapse and back to recovery again. We are overjoyed to present a Dopey for the ages!

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!
