Ryley Walker: Addiction, Recovery, and Stealing from Grandma on Dopey Podcast

I'm seeking out a spiritual experience through prayer, meditation, whatever meetings, all this stuff. And I got to say it's pretty spiritual for a drug addict like me to go into a room and be so open and candid about what I'm thinking that day or what fucks me up or what makes me happy, because I was the most closed off, callous person who's ever lived in a real asshole.
Imagine finding humor in the darkest corners of addiction. That's exactly what happens when indie rocker Ryley Walker sits down with Dave and Chris on this episode of Dopey. Ryley opens up about his tumultuous journey through drug addiction, including a shocking tale of stealing drugs from his deceased grandmother. But it’s not just shock value; it’s a candid exploration of Midwest drug culture, heroin, ketamine, and PCP use.
The conversation flows effortlessly, balancing the heavy with moments of unexpected laughter. Ryley’s raw honesty offers a unique perspective on the struggles of addiction and the winding road to recovery. He delves into the role of accountability, whether it’s through a sponsor or technology like SoberLink. The hosts also touch on how family dynamics can be both a source of support and a trigger for relapse.
As the episode unfolds, Ryley shares his search for spirituality through prayer, meditation, and recovery meetings. It’s a rollercoaster of emotions that ends on a hopeful note, urging listeners to find their own paths to accountability and healing.
