Lern was supposed to stay at a Dolly Parton-themed hotel.That sentence alone sounds magical.Unfortunately, the hotel wasn't finished.After booking the Nashville stay months in advance for a trip surrounding the Foo Fighters, Lern and Tim learned shortly before arriving that their Dolly accommodations still weren't ready for actual human beings. The hotel staff was extremely accommodating — because apparently that's the Dolly way — and offered to help them find somewhere else.Lern eventually landed in an Airbnb.Which is convenient, because this funny show immediately turns into a discussion about Airbnbs that would make most reasonable people sleep in their cars instead.The crew discovers you can stay in the actual Pennsylvania house used as Buffalo Bill's home in The Silence of the Lambs. It's in Perryopolis, a town name that Moon and Rafe immediately decide needs to be investigated for crimes against geography.Perryville?Too normal.Perry Town?Not enough grandeur.Perryopolis?Now we're cooking.And the house itself has gone completely all-in.The basement scenes involving Buffalo Bill's infamous well weren't originally filmed there, so naturally the current owner had a replica constructed inside the house. Guests can climb into it, take pictures and apparently even propose marriage from inside the pit, because nothing says “spend forever with me” like recreating a serial killer's basement.There's also a motion-activated disco ball that plays “Goodbye Horses.”Worth the trip.Throw in themed packages, horror memorabilia, an arcade, a pool table and hundreds of horror movies on DVD and VHS, and suddenly the crew is seriously considering a group vacation to Perryopolis.Lern is absolutely sleeping there.Devon apparently wants the well.Everybody seems surprisingly comfortable with this.From haunted vacation rentals, the conversation makes the completely natural transition into karaoke — specifically, songs you should absolutely NOT attempt unless your goal is public humiliation.The crew runs through a ranking of brutally difficult karaoke choices, including “I Will Always Love You,” “Bohemian Rhapsody,” “Dream On,” “Take On Me,” “Chandelier,” “Somebody to Love,” “Emotions,” “Barracuda,” “We Didn't Start the Fire,” “Informer,” “Purple Rain,” “Chop Suey!” and several other songs requiring vocal abilities that Chad from accounting simply does not possess.Lern and Rafe argue that terrible karaoke is actually the point.Nobody wants to watch twelve consecutive musical-theater kids nail obscure Broadway songs like they're auditioning for a touring production.We want danger.We want confidence unsupported by talent.We want somebody three drinks deep suddenly deciding they can sing System of a Down.That is entertainment.Rizz, meanwhile, treats karaoke like The Voice, mentally turning his chair whenever somebody actually pulls off the impossible.And yes, the crew demonstrates some of these songs themselves.You're welcome.The conversation also uncovers another deeply unfair fact about Alan Ritchson: apparently Jack Reacher can sing, too.Being enormous and handsome was already plenty, sir.Leave something for everybody else.Then it's time for Crap on Celebrities, and the funny show dives directly into entertainment chaos.Benny Blanco's relationship advice basically comes down to understanding your partner, communicating and not being a jerk — an apparently revolutionary romantic strategy.The crew talks Ella Langley's massive chart success, Kacey Musgraves, Stevie Nicks opening up about her history with cocaine and Klonopin, Tony Iommi reportedly passing on another Black Sabbath album and Moon explaining why producer Andrew Watt's willingness to throw endless ideas around can be such an asset in the studio.John Carpenter's admiration for Metallica also sparks speculation about how his visual style could fit with a giant immersive production.Which brings us to the Sphere.Who's next?Metallica?Oasis?Coldplay?Nope.Oprah.The show discusses Oprah Winfrey bringing an immersive production to the Las Vegas Sphere, and initially nobody can figure out what that is supposed to look like.Giant Oprah?Inspirational quotes covering 160,000 square feet?“You get a Sphere! YOU get a Sphere!”But then Moon discovers musician Jacob Collier is involved and executes one of the fastest opinion reversals in show history.Suddenly, he's in.Completely in.Moon launches into an enthusiastic defense of Collier's musicianship and creativity while everybody else tries to figure out how the conversation went from mocking Oprah at the Sphere to Moon volunteering hundreds of dollars for tickets.That's growth.Or something.Celebrity chaos continues with Stagecoach talk, Florida Georgia Line, the Emmys, Reba's Dolly Parton tribute, Dave Chappelle's announced tour and Martha Stewart apparently considering releasing nude photos.Which, naturally, gives Rafe the opportunity to invite everyone to “Martha's Vineyard.”We apologize.Things briefly get much more serious when the show discusses a reported death possibly involving a counterfeit oxycodone pill containing fentanyl. The crew talks about the danger of counterfeit pills and the importance of Narcan, including the need to call 911 and the possibility that multiple doses may be necessary in an opioid overdose.Then celebrity family drama arrives with a discussion about Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's children dropping Pitt from their names, leading to a larger conversation about family relationships, famous last names and the obvious reality that none of us actually knows what happens inside somebody else's home.Finally, the episode becomes an accidental soundtrack debate.What are the greatest songs ever attached to movies?What are the worst?Titanic. Dirty Dancing. Saturday Night Fever. Rocky. Philadelphia. Frozen. Wild Wild West. The Three Musketeers. An American Tail.Moon gets emotionally invested in Fievel.Lern would like everyone to return to Patrick Swayze.Rafe remembers the reign of terror that was Bryan Adams.And somewhere along the way, Pitbull gets accused of reminding everybody that he's Mr. Worldwide in every song like he's legally required to provide identification.So yes, this episode starts with Dolly Parton hospitality, travels to Buffalo Bill's basement, crashes a karaoke bar, discovers Jack Reacher can sing, sends Oprah to the Sphere and ends up debating whether Fievel has been given the musical respect he deserves.Exactly the kind of funny show where nobody knows where the conversation is going — especially the people having it.Welcome to Perryopolis.Please put the lotion in the basket before checkout.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

She lived in Golden Gate Park, trimmed weed in California and supported herself on tour by selling water—only to return home between runs and fall deeper into opioid addiction.After getting sober for four years, Leah met Brian through the recovery and jam-band community. They fell in love, moved to the Atlantic City area and eventually relapsed together during COVID. What followed included pressed fentanyl pills, crack runs, repeated overdoses, approximately ten Narcan reversals apiece and an unbelievable arrest in which Leah slipped out of her handcuffs, stole her confiscated crack from the police evidence bag and fought the cops—earning seven felonies and eight misdemeanors.The story turns heartbreaking when Leah recounts waking up after her own overdose and finding Brian dead in their living room. She talks honestly about grief, trauma treatment, another relapse, more overdose deaths and finally building a sober life through therapy, community, farming and helping others process loss.Plus: a dog eats weed-infused chocolate espresso beans, Lauren explains bell ringers and “dragon's breath,” Zach shares a powerful recovery message, Dave reacts to the Hunter Biden episode comments and more more more on a brand new yet seriously old school new episode of that good old Dopey Show!

A woman named Kimber leaves rehab, returns home alone and prepares to inject what she believes is heroin—probably fentanyl—into her neck. Knowing her tolerance has disappeared, she calls the Never Use Alone hotline. Nurse Jessie stays on the phone, urges Kimber to use less and collects her location. Moments after injecting, Kimber stops responding. Jessie calls for help, and paramedic Stephen Murray arrives in time to revive her with Narcan. The episode expands the extraordinary story first told on This American Life. Stephen describes his own addiction, recovery and unlikely path from finance and drug use to firefighting, emergency medicine and harm-reduction work. He explains how the Massachusetts Overdose Prevention Hotline became the country's first government-funded overdose hotline and why it offers anonymous, judgment-free support to anyone using drugs alone. Kimber then tells her side of the call: getting expelled from rehab, shooting cocaine all night, buying heroin after 40 abstinent days and waking up surrounded by emergency workers. The overdose did not immediately stop her addiction—she returned to treatment, entered a rehab romance and continued using for another two years. Now twenty months sober, she works for the same hotline that saved her, answering calls from people using alone and giving them the connection, companionship and protection she once needed.

Seth is joined by Mike Schneider, who spent 45 years with Baker and served as senior vice president and chief people officer. They discuss why construction workers may suffer in silence, how supervisors can recognize behavior changes, and why mental health needs the same attention the industry gives physical safety.

KAUL CLANCY TRIAL: Defense rests in the Lindsay Clancy murder trialSTRASSMANN PANETTIERE NARCAN: Hayden Panettiere was given Narcan in South Carolina apartment HARTMAN FLETCHER'S ROOM: School shootings leave empty bedrooms and Steve Hartman visits them

Hayden Panettiere died suddenly in Greenville, South Carolina at 36. TMZ reports that Narcan, the nasal spray used to reverse an opioid overdose, was found in the apartment. Dr. Drew is joined by his Celebrity Rehab costars – addiction counselor Bob Forrest and certified chemical dependency counselor Shelly Sprague-Foster – to discuss Hayden's opioid addiction, postpartum depression, and what we know about her tragic and sudden death. Panettiere told People in 2022 that she had been in a cycle of self-destruction, and wrote in her memoir that a doctor warned she would be dead within 5 years if she did not stop drinking. She said she was given pills as a teenager before red carpet appearances, developed an opioid dependency after being prescribed painkillers for an injury, and experienced withdrawal severe enough to send her to a liver specialist. Page Six reports, through a friend, that she had severe back problems in the months before her death. NBC News reports her ex-boyfriend was at the scene when she died. Also on today's show: Dr. James Thorp, a maternal fetal medicine specialist with more than 40 years in practice who was fired by SSM Health after speaking out about COVID-19 vaccines in pregnancy.

Hayden Panettiere flew from Los Angeles to South Carolina on Saturday with her on-again, off-again boyfriend Brian Hickerson before the actress died Sunday at a Greenville apartment. Narcan, a medication commonly used to reverse opioid overdoses, was reportedly found on a mattress inside the apartment, though it remains unclear whether Panettiere received the medication or whether it was used for someone else. A 911 dispatch call reportedly described an apparent “overdose” involving a woman in cardiac arrest.

At the New York Knicks championship parade, a man became unresponsive high above a crowd of thousands. Phones came out. Simone Kelly ran toward him. Simone is a 24-year-old volunteer EMT and neuroscience student at Drew University who hopes to become a physician specializing in emergency psychiatry and addiction. At the parade, she climbed onto the structure, recognized the signs of a suspected opioid overdose, called for Narcan, administered it, and helped save his life. The moment quickly went viral. Simone joins Zac to tell the story behind the rescue and talk Narcan, overdose, harm reduction, addiction stigma, service, and why treating people who are struggling with dignity can save lives.

On this episode of The Roundtable, we're examining the tragic story of Hayden Panettiere and asking a much larger question about the entertainment industry that raised her: what is the true cost of child stardom?We begin with the shocking timeline surrounding Hayden's sudden death at just 36 years old, breaking down her final trip to South Carolina, the 911 call, the extensive emergency response, and the unanswered questions surrounding what happened during those final hours. Then we examine the scene details that have fueled intense speculation online—including the presence of Narcan, references to an overdose in emergency dispatch communications, and the possibility that the circumstances may be far more complicated than the narrative taking shape on social media.We also look back at Hayden's extraordinary—and deeply troubling—history as a child star, beginning with a career that started before she was even a year old and culminating in global fame with Heroes. We explore revelations from her memoir about being given so-called "happy pills" as a teenager to keep her energetic during press appearances and demanding work schedules, and what her story reveals about an entertainment industry financially incentivized to keep young performers working regardless of the long-term consequences.Then we turn to her years on Nashville, when Hayden's real-life struggles with postpartum depression and addiction became intertwined with the storyline of her character, Juliette Barnes. We discuss the uncomfortable ethical questions surrounding Hollywood's tendency to turn an actor's private trauma into public entertainment, as well as Hayden's heartbreaking decision to give primary custody of her daughter Kaya to her father while she sought treatment.Finally, we dive into the devastating final years of Hayden's life following the sudden death of her younger brother, Jansen, and examine how grief, chronic pain, addiction, physical health struggles, and decades of extraordinary pressure may have compounded one another. We also confront the way the public repeatedly interpreted Hayden's visible struggles through the most sensational lens possible—even as she attempted to reclaim her own story.Throughout the episode, one question connects every part of Hayden's story: when a public figure tells us exactly what they're struggling with, do we actually listen—or do we simply consume their pain as another form of entertainment?Pull up a chair… the conversation about Hayden Panettiere, child stardom, exploitation, and the true cost of fame starts now.Disclosure: This episode of the "Roundtable" series incorporates AI-assisted technology in its creation and production.

Surviving eight shots of Narcan at twelve years old is one hell of an introduction to chronic illness, and for Haylee, that was just the tip of the iceberg. Meet Haylee, a master's student living with an absolute alphabet soup of diagnoses, including Cerebral Palsy, Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), ARFID, AuDHD, OCD, and a recent addition of Bipolar disorder. In this raw and intimate conversation, Haylee breaks down what life is actually like when your body and brain are constantly clashing. From surviving a 26-hour leg surgery and an accidental morphine overdose at just twelve years old, to navigating the cold, isolating reality of transitioning out of pediatric care, Haylee doesn't hold back. She opens up about the trauma of medical PTSD, getting an ableist university professor fired, navigating safe-food obsessions, and using music and song-writing to quiet her brain during manic episodes. It's an honest, eye-opening look at disability, identity, and proving everyone, including her doctors, wrong.Follow Sickboy: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sickboypodcastTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@sickboypodcastDiscord: https://discord.gg/expeUDN

Join the First Responder Leadership Mastermind: firstresponderwellness.co/mastermind   146 - From Felonies to the Front Lines: One Woman's Journey Through Addiction and Recovery Work What does it really take to go from a stolen car, a drug addiction, and a revolving-door relationship with jail — to 14 years of sobriety and a career saving other people's lives?

 In this episode of the First Responder Wellness Podcast, host Conrad Weaver sits down with Casey Burley, a recovery advocate and Narcan trainer who has been in recovery since September 14, 2011. Casey's story is not a tidy redemption arc. It is raw, honest, and deeply relevant to every first responder who has ever wondered whether the people they keep encountering on their worst calls are capable of change.

 Casey takes us through her journey from early drug use at age 16 — starting with meth — through years of incarceration, to a treatment program where one counselor's relentless belief in her became the turning point that changed everything. She talks about what recovery housing actually looks like, why isolation is one of the most dangerous forces in addiction, and what it feels like to respond to overdoses and deaths in the same community you once nearly left permanently.

 In this conversation, you'll hear:
 Why Casey says people in recovery are not a lost cause — and what first responders need to see to believe it
 The reality of fentanyl and carfentanil in every drug on the street today, and why everyone needs to know how to use Narcan
 What happens inside a recovery home after someone dies — and the quiet, careful work Casey does for the family left behind
 How self-labeling as an addict is just as destructive as being labeled by others, and how that changes in recovery
 A direct challenge to first responders: come to a recovery event and see the people who are making it

 This episode is for first responders, law enforcement officers, counselors, recovery workers, families of people struggling with addiction, and anyone who has ever wondered whether it is worth fighting for someone who keeps falling down.

The answer Casey gives is yes. Every time. Because somebody fought for her — and she never forgot it.

Richard D. Jewell, CPRC is a certified peer recovery coach with Lifeboat Addiction Recovery Services, a SAG-AFTRA actor, educator, investigator, and longtime advocate for addiction recovery and personal transformation. His work has taken him across criminal investigations, higher education, workforce development, addiction recovery, and the film industry. Today, he works directly with individuals and families impacted by substance use disorder, helping people navigate recovery, access support, and build meaningful lives rooted in worth, wellness, and hope.In this conversation, Richard Jewell and Dr. Joe Kort explore what recovery looks like today and how the field has changed over the years. Richard explains the role of a certified peer recovery coach, how it differs from an AA sponsor, and why recovery support must look at the whole person, not just the substance. He discusses the eight pillars of wellness, including emotional, environmental, financial, intellectual, physical, spiritual, occupational, and social well-being, and how these areas can help someone rebuild a life worth living.They also discuss the importance of addressing sexuality, intimacy, trauma, and sober sex within recovery. Richard shares why people in recovery may not know what sex or relationships feel like without substances, and why shame-free conversations about sexual identity, abuse, intimacy, and presence are essential. He also reflects on his own relationship with his wife and how working with Dr. Kort helped them build a monogamous, loving, soulful relationship that has lasted for decades.The conversation also looks at addiction as a disease, not a choice, and why substance use disorder must be understood through compassion, science, and lived experience. Richard talks about emotional development, relationships in early recovery, relapse, denial, rationalization, medication, recovery campuses, and the importance of supportive environments. He also discusses why rules like avoiding relationships for the first year of sobriety may come from a valid concern, but should not always be treated as one-size-fits-all.Richard and Dr. Kort also explore harm reduction, Narcan, mocktails, recovery-friendly workplaces, LGBTQ+ communities in recovery, mental health, suicidal thoughts, worthiness, and what it means to help people find their value again. Richard shares powerful insight from his own life and work, including how recovery coaching can help people access treatment, housing, Medicaid, identification, food, clothing, and long-term support.Listen to this Smart Sex, Smart Love episode as Dr. Joe Kort talks with Richard Jewell about addiction recovery, peer recovery coaching, sober sex, trauma, relationships, worthiness, harm reduction, recovery-friendly workplaces, the eight pillars of wellness, and what it really means to build a life worth living.Support the show

The murder trial of Lindsay Clancy moved into some of its hardest testimony yet, as three first responders recounted what they walked into at the family's Summer Street home in Duxbury, Massachusetts on January 24, 2023. Clancy, 34, is accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise resistance bands. She faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation, has pleaded not guilty, and her defense, led by attorney Kevin Reddington, is arguing she was in the grip of severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.Duxbury firefighter-paramedic Patrick Dwyer testified about trying to resuscitate Cora and getting her to the hospital. Fellow Duxbury paramedic Jennifer Stratton described performing CPR on baby Callan. And Pembroke's Robert Costanzo told jurors about treating Clancy herself, giving her Narcan on suspicion of an opioid overdose — Narcan that, notably, does nothing for benzodiazepines, which he wasn't trained to address. Clancy never woke up from it. On cross-examination, Costanzo conceded he missed the spinal fractures Clancy was later found to have, and that his entire window with her — roughly seven minutes — wasn't enough time to gauge how badly her neck and wrists were actually hurt.Prosecutors maintain Clancy understood the nature of her actions regardless of her mental state. She allegedly attempted suicide afterward by jumping from a second-story window and is now paralyzed from the waist down. Her husband, Patrick Clancy, was running errands at the time of the killings and has since relocated to Manhattan. The trial continues in Plymouth Superior Court and is expected to last several more weeks.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Three first responders took the stand today in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy, the Duxbury, Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. Clancy faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation. She's pleaded not guilty, and her attorney, Kevin Reddington, is mounting an insanity defense built on claims of severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.Duxbury firefighter-paramedic Patrick Dwyer described arriving to a scene most people spend their careers hoping to never see, working to resuscitate Cora before rushing her to the hospital. His colleague, Jennifer Stratton, testified to performing CPR on Callan — a baby who, by every account of that day, never had a chance to grow past seven months old. Then came Pembroke's Robert Costanzo, who tried to help Clancy herself, administering Narcan on the assumption she'd overdosed on opioids. She didn't wake up. Costanzo wasn't trained to treat benzodiazepines, which raises an obvious question about what exactly first responders are equipped to identify in the first sixty seconds of chaos. Under cross-examination, he admitted he never noticed the fractures later found in Clancy's spine, and that his hands-on time with her totaled about seven minutes — nowhere near enough to assess the true scope of her neck and wrist injuries.Prosecutors argue Clancy understood what she was doing despite the defense's mental-health claims. After the killings, she allegedly jumped from a second-story window, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. Her husband, Patrick Clancy, was out running errands and has since relocated to Manhattan. The trial, underway in Plymouth Superior Court, is expected to run several more weeks.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

 We chatted with Eric Becker and Marty Buckenmeyer of Stunt Drummer and they told us how they cleverly got their name and their formation post-Covid. We also talked about their recent release “Warm Up, Tiger the band's most feral, focused, and experimental release yet! We had some good laughs and such a great conversation these guys.  The band is made up of Marty Buckenmeyer (guitar/vocals), Erik Becker (guitar/vocals), Ethan Schee (bass), and J Leaver (drums).   Stunt Drummer thrive on collaboration and collision. Songs rarely arrive finished - instead they're mashed together from riffs, mistakes, and half-ideas until something clicks. As the band puts it, the best moments come when things probably shouldn't work, but somehow do.    Stunt Drummer aren't interested in fitting neatly anywhere. Their ideal setting? "A medium-sized, dimly lit bar with cheap drinks and free Narcan, in front of the restroom door." With Warm Up, Tiger, they deliver a record that's loud, memorable, disorienting, and deeply alive - best experienced with the volume up and expectations off.  Be sure to check them out at:  Band Camp: Stunt Drummer  IG: stunt_drummer  FB: Stunt Drummer  

Listen without ads on patreon at: www.patreon.com/dopeypodcast SUMMARY: This week on Dopey, Dave marks eight years since the death of his original co-host and close friend, Chris O'Connor. After celebrating members of Dopey Nation—including brothers Brian and Matt, Laren, Steve Schneider and Jessica—Dave reflects on recovery, character defects and the strange experience of hearing Chris again every week through the Total Dopey Replay.   The heart of the episode is an intimate conversation with Chris's former fiancée, Annie, who is now a surgeon, a wife and the mother of two young children. Annie looks back on finding Chris after his fatal overdose, the trauma that followed and the years it took before that memory stopped feeling frightening and became simply, painfully sad.   Dave and Annie discuss the life Chris never got to live, whether he wanted children, the secrecy surrounding his relapse and the possibility that nobody close to him knew he was using. Annie explains why she ultimately walked away from a planned career treating substance use disorder and why Dopey may offer comfort to some people while remaining too painful for members of Chris's family.   Annie shares a powerful analogy she received shortly after Chris died: in the beginning, grief is the only room in the house. As life continues, you add new rooms—relationships, children, work, friendship and purpose. The grief room never disappears, but it is no longer the only place you can go. That realization leads Dave and Annie to an unexpected connection: recovery from addiction can also be a form of grief. You may never erase the loss or forget the feeling you once chased, but you can build a life large enough that it no longer consumes everything.

Every System Failed Her Daughter — So She Built a New OneJennifer Jorgensen never imagined she would become a mental health advocate.She was simply a mother. Trying to protect her daughter. Doing what mothers do when they see their child hurting — asking for help, demanding intervention, refusing to accept dismissal as an answer.Every system failed her.And then came the call that no parent should ever receive.What Jennifer did next — not in spite of her grief but because of it — is a story about what happens when a woman refuses to let tragedy be the final word.She Saw It Before Anyone ElseJennifer's daughter was a sensitive, deeply feeling child whose emotional world was often overwhelming. She was also the girl who wholeheartedly embraced a community project her mother created called Cookies with Cops — a simple, intentional idea that children and police officers who decorated cookies together might see each other with more compassion. Her daughter wanted to build bridges in a world full of walls.That was the essence of who she was.When the brightness began to dim, Jennifer noticed immediately. She writes in her chapter of Alpha Queens Rising: Where Purpose Meets Power: “I always knew my daughter was special. Her heart was sensitive, deep, and intuitive. When something shifted — when her brightness dimmed — I noticed immediately.”She asked for help from doctors, therapists, anyone who might intervene. The responses were dismissive. She is overreacting. Teenagers are emotional. She will grow out of it.“But I knew the difference between dramatic and drowning.”The Concussion That Changed EverythingThen came the concussion — a head injury that altered the entire landscape of her daughter's health. Jennifer watched her struggle to think clearly, to regulate her emotions, to simply feel like herself again.What many families don't know — and what Jennifer now teaches others — is that head injuries alter brain chemistry in ways that even medical professionals routinely underestimate. When you add hormonal changes and a nervous system already running on overload, the result is a storm that looks invisible from the outside. Jennifer could see it clearly. She asked for help. She was told to wait.Hormones, emotional sensitivity, and brain trauma created a crisis that no one in the medical system would acknowledge with the urgency it deserved.Still no safety plan. No immediate intervention. No one who treated her mother's instinct as data worth acting on.The First AttemptThe day her daughter attempted suicide for the first time was the day Jennifer's world permanently bent.Emergency room. Minimal evaluation. A checklist. A discharge. The label attached to the chart: attention-seeking behavior.Outpatient therapy was offered — weeks out. Not days. Weeks. In a crisis that required immediate care, the system handed them a waiting list.“It felt like screaming into a void,” Jennifer writes.She screamed anyway. She called. She followed up. She advocated louder and longer than any parent should have to. She documented everything. She did not accept the system's pace when her daughter's life was the stakes.None of it was enough.The CallAnd then came the call that ended everything.One sentence. Her daughter was gone.All the warnings Jennifer had raised. All the doors she had knocked on. All the late nights monitoring her daughter's breathing, sitting outside her room, checking and rechecking.None of it mattered because the world did not listen.Grief after losing a child is not a wound — it is a world. Everything inside it reorganizes. The air is different. Time moves differently. Jennifer questioned herself in every direction. Did she do enough? Did she miss something? Was there one more door she should have knocked on?Her answer is clear and she has said it publicly, repeatedly, because it needs to be heard: “I didn't fail her. The system failed her. And I refuse to let silence win.”A Mission Born From the UnspeakableJennifer made a choice in the aftermath of that loss that only the most courageous women make. She decided her daughter's life would not end with her death. It would become a mandate.“If God chose me to be her mother,” she writes, “then He is choosing me now to be her voice.”She began creating Care Kits for teens in crisis — something tangible a struggling young person could hold in their hands that said one simple thing: you matter today. Not after the waiting list clears. Not after someone returns a call. Today.As parents and teens began sharing how these kits opened conversations that had previously been impossible, Jennifer realized she had built something more than comfort. She had built a point of intervention.The Care Bag ProgramShe took that realization to her county's sheriff's department. They listened. Together, they created the Care Bag Program — a tangible, immediate resource for families navigating mental health emergencies in real time.Each bag is assembled with care and purpose. It contains a small sharps box, a cabinet lock, a drug-dissolver pouch, Narcan, tools for de-escalating anxiety, and local emergency resources. Every item has a reason. Every item represents a gap in the system that Jennifer refused to accept.She is actively building additional programs to support both teens and adults at risk. The work has expanded beyond kits and into education, community partnerships, and public awareness — because Jennifer understands that one program is not enough. The system failed at multiple points. The response has to match the scale of the failure.If even one life is saved because of her daughter's story, she writes, her purpose continues.What She Needs the World to HearJennifer Jorgensen is a mental health advocate dedicated to preventing suicide and supporting families in crisis. Guided by her Christian faith and her daughter's legacy, she creates Care Kits for teens and collaborates with law enforcement to provide immediate, accessible resources for families when they need them most.Her message is not abstract. It is specific, urgent, and grounded in what she learned the hardest way a mother can learn anything:“Parents know their children. Our voices must matter.”Mental health struggles are real.

“You can do as many brain scans as you want, but you'll never be able to distinguish an impulse that wasn't resisted from one that's irresistible.” — Sally Satel on why social media addiction can't be proven in court When Meta and YouTube lost the so-called landmark social media addiction trial back in March, there was jubilation inside and outside the courtroom. Finally, Big Tech seemed a bit less big. Justice, it seemed, had finally been done. Or maybe not. (Full disclosure: my wife is head of litigation at Google, so I might be a bit biased). But today's guest, the psychiatrist Sally Satel, doesn't have a dog (or husband) in the fight, and she's a skeptic of the trial's outcome. A senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and the medical director of a Washington methadone clinic, Satel argues that the concept of addiction — her clinical specialty — was distorted in the trial to serve a $1.4 trillion litigation pipeline. The plaintiffs' theory reifies addiction as behavior beyond control. If that were true, Satel argues, none of her patients would ever get better. Satel comes at this as a doctor rather than a moralist. Clinically, she acknowledges, social media addiction exists — excessive use, loss of control, continued harm — and the treatments are the same behavioral strategies she uses at her clinic. But legally, where causation is everything, the plaintiff argument collapses. No brain scan can ever distinguish an impulse that wasn't resisted from one that's irresistible. The mechanism of harm is unprovable — a ludicrously brittle foundation, Satel argues, for a trillion dollars of lawsuits against social media companies. So when is “addiction” really addiction? Satel's upcoming book Not a Disease: Rethinking Addiction in the Heart of America's Overdose Crisis, which will be out in early 2027, addresses this awkward truth. And we'll certainly have her back on the show to discuss. Five Takeaways •       The $1.4 Trillion Distortion of Addiction. The March bellwether verdict awarded “Kaley” $6 million from Meta and YouTube, but the real story is the litigation pipeline behind it — four states suing Meta in a single day, with total claims reaching $1.4 trillion. Satel's objection is professional: the lawsuits invoke brain science at the most superficial level and reify addiction as behavior beyond control. If addiction truly extinguished self-control, her methadone patients would never get better — and they do. Kaley herself had fragilities that long predated the platforms, one therapist testified social media barely came up in her sessions, and her stated career plan is to become an influencer. •       Clinically Real, Legally Incoherent. Satel's central distinction: in a clinic, social media addiction is a recognizable condition — excessive use, loss of control, continued harm — treatable with the same strategies she uses for drugs, from identifying idiosyncratic cues to self-binding tactics like grayscale screens and switched-off notifications. In a courtroom, where causation is everything, the concept falls apart. No brain scan can distinguish an impulse that wasn't resisted from one that's irresistible; the technology simply doesn't exist. The mechanism of harm at the center of the litigation is not just unproven but unprovable. •       Demoralization Is Not Depression. At her methadone clinic, nine patients out of ten arrive reciting diagnoses — bipolar, PTSD, depression — that closer examination reveals they don't have. What's medicated as depression is often demoralization: the entirely understandable response to crumbling public housing and an abusive partner. Younger people now diagnose themselves by internet, because a diagnosis has become valorized — a built-in excuse, a victim category, less expected of you. Gratifying in the short run, Satel argues, and developmentally retarding in the long run: less engagement with risk, with challenge, with the world. •       The Therapeutic Culture Meets Woke Therapy. Sixty years after Philip Rieff's Triumph of the Therapeutic, the medicalization of ordinary sadness is complete — grief becomes a prescription, and resources drain away from the seriously ill. The newer turn is political: counselor training now teaches that the therapist knows what's wrong before the patient speaks — oppression — and a congressional investigation is examining antisemitism within the American Psychological Association. Satel's emblematic story: a young man fired by his therapist for gently suggesting his rabbi's sermon had become too politicized. You don't fire a patient, she notes. The therapist's moral commitments bled into the room. •       The Good News About Fentanyl. Fentanyl deaths are falling significantly — not because fewer people use, but because far fewer die. Narcan is flooding the streets, nailed up in boxes on telephone poles and handed out free at clinics; the Chinese supply has tightened and Mexican distribution has been disrupted; and, as in every drug epidemic, the upcoming generation is opting out — the same dynamic the rappers documented during crack. The morbid factor is real too: many long-term users have died. Satel's book Not a Disease — rethinking addiction from the front lines of the overdose crisis — arrives in early 2027. About the Guest Sally Satel is a psychiatrist, a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, and the medical director of a methadone clinic in Washington, DC. She is the author or co-author of PC, M.D., One Nation Under Therapy, and Brainwashed: The Seductive Appeal of Mindless Neuroscience, and her essays appear in Persuasion and The Free Press. Her new book, Not a Disease: Rethinking Addiction in the Heart of America's Overdose Crisis (MIT Press), is out in early 2027. References: •       Not a Disease: Rethinking Addiction in the Heart of America's Overdose Crisis by Sally Satel (MIT Press, early 2027) — drawn from her years on the front lines of the overdose crisis. •       Satel's recent Persuasion essay arguing that social media addiction is more complicated than the litigation suggests, and her Free Press pieces on social media addiction and on why fentanyl deaths are falling. •       One Nation Under Therapy and Brainwashed: The Seductive Appeal of Mindless Neuroscience — Satel's earlier assaults on the therapeutic culture and superficial brain science. •       The Age of Diagnosis by Suzanne O'Sullivan — the book behind the episode's framing question: which comes first, the diagnosis or the anxiety? •       Philip Rieff — whose The Triumph of the Thera...

The Mystic Fire started just after 4 p.m. near Mystic Court and White Canoe Lane in Nevada County on July 11th. Forward progress was stopped almost two hours later but not before zone NCO-E076 was flagged for an evacuation warning. A good reminder to Know Your Zone. Volunteers with Nevada County Mutual Aid organized a Community Care Day on Sunday, July 12, at the Grass Valley Elks Lodge. The free event featured locally sourced food, free books, face painting, a clothing swap, and a build-your-own care kit station featuring hygiene, first-aid and harm reduction items as well as Narcan and sexual health kits. You can listen to a tour given to KVMR News by one of the event organizers here.

Lst chance for Film Fest tickets: https://buytickets.at/thedopeyfoundation/2216905 PAtreon: www.patreon.com/dopeypodcast This week on Dopey, Dave opens the show with a meditation on the Rolling Stones' “Monkey Man,” junkie music, Keith Richards, Mick Jagger, and the impossibility of legally buying an MP3 in 2026. He also gets hyped for the first Dopey Short Recovery Film Festival, talks about bringing big ideas into reality through recovery, and reminds listeners to reach out for Narcan, fentanyl test strips, treatment help, stories, and voicemails. Then Dopey Nation delivers some truly insane listener stories: Danny B writes in about smoking crack and accidentally pulling a red-hot cherry through his stem into the back of his throat; JD D. Hart tells an all-time bath salts story involving paranoia, hiding drugs in his ass, a stuck vial, friends rescuing it with surgical gloves, and somehow winding up with hepatitis A, E, and C; and another listener shares a meth-fueled poop-in-a-bowl story that ends with shattered glass and hard poop in the basement. Dave also reads Patreon and Spotify comments on the Mishka Shubaly episode, including reactions to resentment, God, Trump, Mark Lanegan, liquid meth, the Bailey Dopey theme song, and whether Mishka came off as brilliant, annoying, or both. Then Dave sits down with beauty creator, recovery advocate, and Moda Smile founder Dean Moda for one of the most powerful and intense interviews in Dopey history. Dean talks about growing up in Brooklyn with Trinidadian and Panamanian parents, being gay, getting bullied, discovering weed, FIT, early sex work, squatting in Bushwick, and eventually being unknowingly introduced to crystal meth during a traumatic hookup that ended in sexual assault. Dean shares how that night opened the door to years inside New York's chemsex scene, where crystal meth, sex, shame, danger, and trauma became impossible to separate. He talks about meth psychosis, paranoia, hallucinations, PCP-laced joints, treatment attempts, relapse, Greenhouse Treatment Center in Texas, Crystal Meth Anonymous, and the moment he finally understood that one hit would always lead to more. It is a brutal, funny, honest, deeply vulnerable story of trauma, addiction, identity, survival, and recovery — plus somehow, teeth whitening. PLUS MORE MORE MORE!

FILM FESTIVAL TICKETS: https://buytickets.at/thedopeyfoundation/2216905 PATREON: www.patreon.com/dopeypodcast Summary: This week on the Wednesday Dose of Dopey, Dave marks eight years since the death of his close friend Todd Curry, who died from a fentanyl overdose. To honor Todd's memory, Dave brings on Todd's sister, Allie Curry, for a deeply personal conversation about grief, family, addiction, denial, and what it feels like to lose someone so loved, complicated, funny, and unforgettable. Before the conversation, Dave shares updates about the Knicks championship, the upcoming Dopey Short Film Festival, Patreon Zooms, Narcan and fentanyl test strips, and reads a classic Dopey story about winning free Detroit Tigers tickets, scamming free t-shirts, smoking crack behind a dumpster, trying to go to Canada, and getting banned from the country. Then Dave and Allie talk about Todd's life, his Dopey appearances, his humor, his family role, his addiction, and the strange pain of remembering someone eight years later. Allie reflects on how Todd's birthday can feel harder than the anniversary of his death, how her kids remember him, how her parents handled his addiction and death, and how family denial and shame shaped so much of the experience. Dave remembers Todd as one of the foundational characters in Dopey history: the friend who called into the show without knowing he was being recorded, the hilarious storyteller, the hustler, the lost soul, and the person whose pain and charm became part of the show's DNA. Together, Dave and Allie explore the impossible questions around enabling, tough love, interventions, family secrets, and the strange ways grief stays alive. It's a bittersweet episode about keeping people alive by remembering them, telling the truth, laughing when possible, and honoring the people we lost to addiction. All that and more on the new Dopey!

The Greatest MAGA Military Recruiting Ad Ever. Iran and US Say They Have a Deal. Hegseth: Ecuador and Guatemala Are Next. Fox Gobbles Up Roku. USA Soccer Wins Big! Even Though Trump Called Them.  Sports is our mirror. On Saturday night, that mirror reflected the best of America — a 53-years-in-the-making Knicks championship built on a diverse, humble, durable team led by Jalen Brunson, a man who shook every hand on the losing side because integrity is doing the right thing even when nobody's watching. On Sunday night, the mirror reflected something uglier: a UFC card on the White House lawn, locked behind a Paramount Plus paywall, with no women on the card, fight bonuses paid in Trump-family crypto, and sponsors ranging from Elon's Starlink to Turning Point USA. The White House, Paul argues, was openly for sale — and most fight fans loved it. In this solo Monday briefing, Paul connects the dots between a triumphant Knicks parade week, a wildly effective piece of military-recruiting propaganda dressed up as an octagon, a U.S. World Cup team that just dropped three on its opener, a fragile Iran ceasefire with none of the original objectives met, Hegseth telegraphing Ecuador and Guatemala as next on the “Donroe” Doctrine hit list, and Fox swallowing Roku for $22 billion. He closes where the show always closes — with Brooklyn bikers carrying Narcan, an Angry Middle that isn't homeless but free, and a reminder that eternal vigilance is the price of freedom. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Visit Kalshi and trade on anything.

FILM FESTIVAL TICKETS: https://buytickets.at/thedopeyfoundation/2216905 PATREON: www.patreon.com/dopeypodcast This week on Dopey! We check in from deep inside Knicks playoff mania, tackles a listener email about dating in early recovery, and shares some hard-earned thoughts on relapse, relationships, and protecting your sobriety at all costs. Then we reconnect with fellow Mountainside alum Kelly P, who was in treatment alongside Dave and Chris back in 2011. What follows is a truly classic Dopey story: childhood trauma, smoking weed at 12, cocaine by 17, dealing pills, getting hooked on oxy and heroin, robbing her own supplier, catching a federal indictment, getting arrested by the DEA, doing time in federal prison, finding love behind bars, and eventually surviving years of heroin, fentanyl, crack, and total chaos. Kelly takes us through decades of addiction, crime, incarceration, heartbreak, motherhood, and redemption with brutal honesty and surprising humor. From federal prison relationships to fentanyl addiction and near-total self-destruction, Kelly's story is a powerful reminder that recovery is possible even after the darkest chapters. Now approaching three years sober, Kelly reflects on forgiveness, family, recovery, and the gratitude that comes from building a life she never thought she'd get to live. PLUS: Knicks obsession, 2C-B puke stories, listener mail, Patreon drama, Narcan, recovery resources, cocaine relapse talk, and plenty of classic Dopey nonsense on a brand new episode of the podcast on drugs, addiction, and dumb shit.
