Rubber Duckies and Recovery: Dopey’s Hilarious Take on Addiction
I just want to say that the people who are in and out of recovery now is a really dangerous time to be straddling that line with all of this incredibly hard fentanyl, running around with the fentanyl and the car fentanyl, but then on top of it, it's just like that's who dies.
Ever wondered how a rubber ducky could be part of a drug test? In this episode of Dopey, Dave and Chris serve up a blend of humor and harsh realities that will have you laughing and thinking all at once. They dive into the wacky world of addiction with stories that are as absurd as they are eye-opening.
Chris recounts his ingenious, albeit gross, method of hiding urine in a rubber ducky to pass a drug test, and the less successful attempt of using Tide with Bleach Alternative. Dave chimes in with his own tales, like putting black tar in Affrin bottles and the misadventures that followed at South by Southwest.
But it's not all laughs; the episode takes a poignant turn when they read an email from a listener whose mom recently passed away, reminding us of the very real dangers of addiction. The duo also discusses the prevalence of dangerous substances like fentanyl and Chiva, shedding light on the serious side of their experiences. Special guest Jed from 'Church and Other Drugs' joins in, adding his own stories and insights into recovery.
And just when you think it couldn't get any more eclectic, Dave ropes Chris into a Tom Petty tribute. Whether you're looking for a good laugh or a sobering reminder of addiction's risks, this episode has it all. Tune in for a rollercoaster of emotions and a unique perspective on the journey to recovery.
