Summary

This week on Dopey we are joined by award winning actor, podcaster, fitness influencer and all around good guy - Ethan Suplee! You probably know Ethan from Remember the Titans, My Name is Earl, American History X, Without A Paddle, Cold Mountain or a host of other projects. What you don't know is how Ethan brings all sorts of unexpected Dopey in this tour de force talk! From his origin as actor and food addict to the time he shit his pants and how he got sober! PLUS My Dad is back! And the LATEST FROM FENTANYL JAY! Plus emails, voicemails, reviews and much much more and a brand new episode of that good old dopey show! PLUS BIG OTHELLO ANNOUNCEMENT!!!! 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!
