A Punk Rock Reunion: Friendship, Drugs, and the Journey to Sobriety on Dopey

It was super cool to catch up with Jon, he always reminds me how lucky I am to still be around to talk about those days! Plus much, much more!
Imagine catching up with an old friend who was there through all your wildest escapades. In this special bonus episode of Dopey, Dave and Chris reconnect with Jon, their old pal from Queens who introduced them to the punk rock scene. Jon isn't in recovery but still dabbles in recreational drug use and drinking, providing a unique perspective on their shared past.
The trio takes a nostalgic trip down memory lane, recounting their high school days filled with rebellious antics, getting high, and even selling tickets to win prizes. They also touch on the blurred lines between being a hard drinker and an alcoholic, and a casual drug user versus an addict. Jon's upbringing with his 'crazy Christian' parents adds another layer to his story of rebellion and substance use.
Dave and Chris reflect on friends they've lost to addiction, their experiences at concerts like the second Woodstock, and their thoughts on alcohol and weed. This episode is a raw and candid look at how far they've come and a sobering reminder of the dangers of addiction. Tune in for a heartfelt conversation that blends humor with poignant reflections on life, friendship, and the road to recovery.
