This week on Dopey! We are joined by addiction/recovery heavyweight, VP of Public Affairs at Hazlelden/Betty Ford, author of BROKEN and BROKEN OPEN - William Cope Moyers! William takes us down the long path of growing up in the limelight and succumbing to addiction - only to claw his way out becoming one of the countries most heralded speakers and writers of recovery. When dental problems struck! William had extensive surgery and got excessive oxys prescribed! Here what happens next on a very special new episode of that good old Dopey Show! PLUS! The Origin of Boofing Meth in OKC, Doing Coke in Kabul and much much more on this weeks newest DOPEY! What AI says: Dopey Nation. Dave dives headfirst into an episode so jam-packed with raw honesty, wild tales, and dark humor that your headphones might file for workers' comp. Joining him is the legendary William Cope Moyers—author, public advocate, recovery powerhouse, and Suboxone truth-teller—to unravel the rollercoaster of addiction, redemption, and, yes, a little “dark energy” courtesy of painkillers. What's Inside This Week's Madness?
William Moyers was one of the lucky ones. Sober for decades after years of addiction to alcohol and crack cocaine, he became a model of success and redemption. He started working at the Hazelden Betty Ford, and in 2006, he published a vulnerable memoir, “Broken,” about his journey out of addiction. But then he was prescribed pain killers after some dental work. And he found himself addicted again. Only this time, he had a public persona. People looked to him for hope. And he found opioids a much harder substance to break free from. What happened next is captured in his new memoir, “Broken Open: What Painkillers Taught Me about Life and Recovery.” Moyers said it changed his focus from sobriety to recovery, and it caused him to rethink how addicts can get there. This week, he joins host Kerri Miller in the studio for an conversation about what true recovery looks like. “It's really messy,” he says. “It's particularly messy for those of us who are public advocates for organizations like Hazelden Betty Ford who are putting their stories out there to inspire others to get well. My story has helped thousands and thousands of people, and I'm glad for it. But there's more to it, which is why I have to tell this story.” Guest: William C. Moyers is the vice president of public affairs and community relations at the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation.

People are gathering at Westwood Lutheran Church in St. Louis Park to remember Kristina Folkerts on Thursday. Folkerts was killed last week when a driver slammed his vehicle into the patio at the Park Tavern, where she was working as a server. The driver, Steven Bailey, has been charged in the case. Authorities said Bailey's blood alcohol level was more than four times the legal limit. He also had five previous DWI convictions.A DWI conviction on its own isn't always an indicator of substance-use disorder. But most drivers in alcohol-involved fatal crashes have high blood alcohol levels — at or above point one five percent — according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.That's about seven or eight drinks in an hour, far beyond what the CDC considers binge drinking. The tragedy makes us wonder how to prevent further tragedies like this one and why people who need help with substance use don't always seek it. And if they seek it, don't always find it.William Moyers is vice president of Public Affairs and Community Relations at Hazelden Foundation and the author of “Broken Open: What Painkillers Taught Me about Life and Recovery.”He joined MPR News guest host Nina Moini to talk about the landscape of addiction recovery in Minnesota.

It's Labor Day Weekend with your pals! Yep, it's Mike and Bill again this week. Mike started out with his reading and it was about happiness and joy. The pursuit of it by us and the happiness and joy that we bring to others when we do the work. It was a good conversation. We touched a little bit on the Holiday Weekend, but as you all know, it's our opinion that it's just another day on the calendar. If you need to sit it out, that's a good choice. Then stories from North Carolina, Moon Zappa and Marc Maron, dealing with the crazy, Dr. Drew and William Moyers, and acting in sober ways. I always know there's more, since we logged 90 minutes, but it will have to be a surprise. Enjoy the episode. Visit us Podcast www.sobernotmature.com Store www.sobernotmatureshop.com
This week Dr. Drew talks to William Moyers, a leading advocate for addiction recovery and mental health. They explore the challenges facing the 12-step program, the genetic predisposition to addiction, and common obstacles in the recovery process. The conversation also tackles the stigma surrounding Suboxone use in recovery communities. Additionally, William discusses his new book, Broken Open, where he candidly shares how painkillers disrupted his own recovery journey.
Shame and stigma kept Kathryn Burgum silent about her recovery for fifteen years. After she became First Lady of North Dakota, she learned from host William Moyers himself after an event where they both spoke: "The solution is so simple—we end stigma by talking about it." Now she's leading head and heart first, putting her own story front and center, and providing invaluable input to steer policy, public perception, and people everywhere toward real hope and healing.
