Dopey 523: Dr. Nzinga Harrison’s Brother Got Life for a Murder He Didn’t Commit
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. Dave and Nzinga also dive into the weirdness of recovery, cursing in front of kids, pajama pants in public, kratom, Suboxone, the alt recovery movement, and the absolute madness of how this documentary (Born Friday) came to life. Plus: a classic voicemail from Anthony involving methadone, clonopin, and a botched tire swap in the snow. An emotional listener email about recovery and redemption. Dopey Nation shoutouts. And a huge update from Nzinga at the end of the episode.
