Podcast: Dopey: On the Dark Comedy of Drug Addiction
Published On: Fri Mar 21 2025
Description: This week on Dopey! In one of the possibly most powerful and emotional episodes of Dopey ever, Dr. Nzinga Harrison returns to the show to tell a story she’s never shared before—despite being around the show for over five years. Her older brother, Kofi (aka Debo), has spent the last 30 years in prison for a triple homicide he didn’t commit. This episode is about injustice, resilience, heartbreak, and family—and how one letter from the foreman of the jury might change everything.💥🎥 Support Nzinga’s documentary “Born Friday” – the story of her brother’s wrongful conviction and the fight for justice: bornfridayfilm.com🧦 Want Dopey socks?
