Dopey 524: I Ate Meth in Jail and Found God in a Coffee Bean - Ultimate Texas Tweaker - Burglar - Prison Redemption Episode - Damon West

This week on Dopey! Dave sits down with best selling author, keynote speaker and criminal justice professor, Damon West, a former Division I quarterback who went from college star to meth addict to high-level burglar—and somehow came out the other side with a crazy uplifting message of hope. Damon tells the jaw-dropping story of how he fell in love with meth, ran a burglary operation across Texas, and got sentenced to 65 years in a maximum-security prison. Inside, he faced violence, gangs, and despair—until a fellow inmate shared a strange but powerful metaphor that sparked his transformation: “Be a coffee bean.” From smoking meth and robbing houses to finding faith, purpose, and redemption behind bars, Damon’s story is wild, raw, and full of real Dopey energy. www.patron.com/dopeypodcast www.damonwest.org
