- Serious without taking itself too seriously.
I first listened to dopey when you were interviewing Ingrid Casares I was blown away by the podcast and I was still able to laugh. I appreciate the fine line between the serious subject matter and the humor that really helps people feel less alone. Loved your interview with Ditty and Sara Clark. Keep up the great work and toodles for Chris.

I found this podcast from the Billy Strings interview and at the time I was deep in the depths of my opiate addiction. I am now 2 months clean from all substances and so thankful for the companionship of Chris and Dave during my rehab stint. I’ll write an email soon and TOOOODLEES for Chris!

Apple Podcasts5J_GatUnited States5 months ago - Best comedy podcast
I started listening about 3 months ago and I’m 80 episodes in. I can safely say Dave and Chris are like brothers now. My heart breaks in advance knowing that Chris’s last episode will inevitably come but I give major kudos to Dave on continuing the work. The format (or lack there of ) is brilliant and the banter never gets old. Cathartic abusive waitering in podcast form. Don’t change a thing but keep keeping on. Shout out to thee entire dopey nation!
