Jack Russell's Wild Ride: Addiction, Recovery, and Rock 'n' Roll on Dopey

I have, you know, Six And A Half Years and I work a program and I do it, so I don't go crazy really.
Ever wondered what it's like to be a rock star grappling with addiction? In this episode of Dopey, Dave and Chris sit down with Jack Russell, the frontman of the legendary 1980s rock band Great White. Jack opens up about his tumultuous journey through addiction, sharing stories of the bizarre drugs he experimented with as a kid and his eventual path to recovery. His tales are raw, unfiltered, and sprinkled with humor, making for an engaging listen.
Jack also recounts the tragic fire at The Station Night Club in Rhode Island, a devastating event that claimed the lives of many fans and left an indelible mark on him and the band. But it’s not all heavy; Dave’s dad pops in with a big announcement, and Charlotte, a recipient of the Toodles for Chris Scholarship, shares her inspiring recovery story.
Plus, you’ll hear Dopey emails, reviews, and a new segment called Behind the Dopey, where guests spill their wildest drug stories. This episode is a rollercoaster of emotions, perfect for anyone navigating their own path to sobriety or simply curious about the rock 'n' roll lifestyle.
