This episode of Dopey takes you on a gripping journey through Kimber's near-fatal overdose and the heroic actions of Stephen, who saved her life. The hosts dive into the harrowing yet eye-opening world of the Mass Overdose Prevention Hotline and Never Use Alone, shedding light on the importance of harm reduction in addiction recovery.

This episode is not just an exploration of addiction but a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of second chances.
