Jeff Garlin sits down on Dopey for a deeply honest conversation about sobriety and recovery. In this full interview, Jeff talks about his addiction patterns -- especially compulsive overeating (food addiction) and how it collided with alcohol and marijuana -- and the reality of living with bipolar disorder.

Jeff explains how he hit bottom, why “logic” doesn’t fix addiction, and how he found stability through AA, therapy tools like DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), and a spiritual shift (“give it up to God” / surrender). He also shares what recovery changed in his life as a working comedian and performer: why he stopped chasing “being funny” at all costs, how he handles anxiety and shame, and what it means to be responsible in recovery.

If you’ve ever felt ashamed, stuck, or like you’re trapped in the same cycle this episode is for you.

Jeff Garlin said there are 4 outcomes for a stand up set: if you have a good set the audience may love you or hate you. If you have a bad set the audience might randomly love you... but if you don't bring the heat for a good crowd it hurts.
Jeff said even he still has off nights as a veteran comic.

Shane Enholm sits down on the Dopey Podcast in Los Angeles to talk about his life story, it's raw, honest, and not for the faint of heart. From federal prison connections and a fentanyl overdose story (in powder form), to the “liquid handcuffs” of methadone and why he believes recovery has to be lived daily, Shane breaks down what actually helped him stay clean.

In this episode, Shane also opens up about the medical reality of liver disease, including hepatitis C treatment, cirrhosis, portal hypertension, autoimmune hepatitis, and how it changed his outlook. He shares how he fought for health through diet changes (no refined sugar), fitness, and continued recovery work, plus his frustrating run-ins with social media bans and the modern struggle of being labeled by algorithms.

If you want hope that feels real (not polished), this is the one.
