Summary

This week on Dopey,! Dave sits down with Zack, a musician, writer, and treatment professional who shares his wild ride through addiction, recovery, and redemption. Before the interview, Dave dives into listener emails and voicemails, answers a controversial Dopey Nation Facebook post about his interviewing style, and reflects on the balancing act of being raw, honest, and funny while tackling heavy topics like addiction and sexual trauma. Plus, some Knicks talk, shoutouts to the Dopey team, and a sneak peek into the behind-the-scenes chaos of the Dopey podcast. From Staten Island ferry drug runs to fentanyl horror stories, festival acid freakouts, and the broken methadone system, this episode is packed with raw, real, darkly hilarious stories of addiction, insanity, and survival.
