Special thanks to all Facebook Admins/ Dopey Zoom Hosts/ Arists/ musicians, writers and anyone who has been a part of our weird and wild podcast family. It all is very emotional for me. Especially big thanks to Ben and Melannie for helping out wiith Facebook/META and the struggle that is dealing with them and me.

Super Special thanks to my family! Linda, susan and Norah for putting up with me through the insanity leading up to dopeycon. And super big thanks to my dad alan for sending me down the long horrible road of addiction that lead to recovery and dopey.

Dopeycon is a ton of emotion for me - to see us all come together and have a good time means more than i can share. To hear that Dopey means anything to you is just so special and powerful for me. I know how much it would mean to Chris too. Stay Strong to our brothers and sisters in and out of recovery and fucking toodles for Chris.
