This week on Dopey! We have a legendary figure from the world of professional wrestling, none other than the great Jake 'The Snake' Roberts. Jake gets raw when telling his epic story of his traumatic upbringing, his early success and ultimately his over-the-top excessive lifestyle.  In his story we learn how his addiction took him to the bottom and how his recovery is giving him a new shot at happiness. 
PLUS lots of dumb shit! On an appliance buying, toilet licking, body slamming, pants peeing, brand new spanking episode of Dopey!  
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!
