This week on Dopey! Dopey Legend Alert! When I heard about Benji Gleason, I had no idea what was coming down the pike. Benjamin Gleason aka 8enjamin3orderline has lived as Dopey a life as I have ever heard. From a deeply traumatic upstate New York upbringing in and out of institutions to selling MDMA and Ketamine up and down the west coast of America. Plus joining the crips, Ayahuasca, jail time - and how can we forget blowing up on TikTok to the tune of 1.2 million followers! His story will live on in Dopey infamy for eternity. PLUS fucking up your teeth on methadone, voicemails and loads of other dumb shit on a brand new episode of that good old Dopey Show!

More About Dopey:
Dopey Podcast is the world’s greatest podcast on drugs, addiction and dumb shit. Chris and I were two IV heroin addicts who loved to talk about all the coke we smoked, snorted and shot, all the pills we ate, smoked, all the weed we smoked and ate, all the booze we consumed and all the consequences we suffered. After making the show for 2 and a half years, Chris tragically relapsed and died from a fentanyl overdose. Dopey continued on, at first to mourn the horrible loss of Chris, but then to continue our mission - which was at its core, to keep addicts and alcoholics company. Whether to laugh at our time in rehab, or cry at the worst missteps we made, Dopey tells the truth about drugs, addiction and recovery. We continually mine the universe for stories rife with debauchery and highlight serious drug taking and alcoholism. We also examine different paths toward addiction recovery. We shine a light on harm reduction and medication assisted treatment. We talk with celebrities and nobodies and stockpile stories to be the greatest one stop shop podcast on all things drugs, addiction, recovery and comedy pathfinding the route to the heart of the opioid epidemic.
