Dopey with Dopey Dave
Dave's addiction may not have started until his 20's, but what started out as occasionally smoking weed quickly turned to using heroin, pills, and other drugs daily.
After hitting bottom and entering a treatment center, he met Chris, who he would eventually start the Dopey Podcast with.
The original premise of the show was that they would share their craziest war stories - there wouldn't be anything recovery related.
"We just wanted to be funny and extreme, but we knew as soon as we did the first episode we needed to say we were sober so that our listeners didn't think we were glorifying drug use and getting high after the show."
Dopey soon gained a huge following of addicts from around the world.
What Dave didn't know is that Chris had started getting high again.
Chris tragically died from an overdose in the summer of 2018.
In the wake of Chris's death, Dave expanded the recovery based message of Dopey.
The show's audience continues to grow and has featured some incredible stories from celebrity guests.
Today Dave is over 5 years sober.
His focus in life is his recovery, family, and Dopey.
