Dopey 382: From Disney Child Star to Homeless Junky Tweaker, the improbable heroic story of Shaun Weiss

This week on Dopey! In an unforgettable new episode, we are joined by actor, comedian, writer and goalie, Greg Goldberg of the Disney movie franchise, The Mighty Ducks - Shaun Weiss.  Shaun tells us his incredible rise to movie stardom as a child actor, and how alcoholism and drug addiction slowly took him over. At his worse Shaun lost everything including his home, and lived on the streets of Los Angeles for an extended period, completely addicted to meth and heroin. Hear Shaun's incredible recovery and more on this very special episode of Dopey!  PLUS my Dad is back - with COVID on an all new, new episode of that good ol' 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!
