This week on Dopey! We get a flood of enthusiastic Spotify comments about a previous Jed Payne episode! We hear a listener voicemail on getting a pickline and reads an email from a listener in Michigan who rebuilt their life after heavy meth/heroin use.
The main interview is with Amanda Crossley (from the Sober Girls group chat), who shares a raw, detailed story of her descent into opioid addiction: stealing massive amounts from her pharmacy job, transitioning to IV heroin in Camden NJ, robbing houses as a getaway driver, sugar-daddy arrangements with much older men, family chaos with her two addicted sisters, and ultimately writing to Dr. Phil herself at 23. The 2014 Dr. Phil episode (filmed while high) led to treatment, and she’s been sober since early 2015 (now ~11 years).
We close with our NEVER RELEASED 1999 EP from our band The Ulti Scrub Hustle: If I’m Not Home(I’m out Walkin Around), Girl of Mine and (I wanna be) Good So Bad.
Original title: Dopey 569: We Robbed Houses, Used Sugar Daddies & Filmed Ourselves Shooting Heroin… for Dr. Phil, The Amanda Crossley Show!
