Hunter Biden fondly recalled his dad Joe visiting him at his Washington D.C., home where he would frequently ingest crack cocaine.
The artist, 56, appeared on a recent episode of the "Dopey Podcast" where he opened up about the former president, 83, rolling up to the abode to check on his son alongside his Secret Service agents.
Hunter Biden looked back on his father visiting him at the height of his drug addiction.
"My dad showed up. He literally showed up at the house twice and just knocked on the door," Hunter recollected.
The businessman was then asked by host David Manheim if Joe ever met his roommate — a homeless woman known as "Bicycles."

Hunter Biden has been sober since 2019.
The individual used to sell him crack, taught him how to smoke it, and ultimately moved in with him. "I think he ran into her," Hunter said of his dad crossing paths with the woman.
"I mean, again and again. He'd call and he'd call, and then... he literally would drive over with a motorcade. You know what I mean? Like as small as he could possibly make it," the disbarred attorney went on about his father's stopovers to his residence.

Joe Biden would sometimes 'show up' to son Hunter's Washington D.C., home.
He then described what happened when he saw Joe's motorcade arrive at his doorstep.
"I'd look out my window because I'd hear all these cars and you'd see like six SUVs pull up and my dad get out and walk with one or two [Secret Service] guys because they have to be next to him. And I'd hear a knock on my door, and I'd open it, and there I would be, and [in] all of the obviousness of someone that was in distress," Hunter looked back.
Hunter Biden Is 7 Years Sober

Hunter Biden went on a 'crack road trip' in 2018.
The former lawyer, who has been sober since 2019, also recalled the politician telling him: "'Please, like, what are we gonna do tomorrow? What's the plan?' And I'd say, I got a plan, and this is what it is."
Hunter then reflected when he escaped to Los Angeles on what Manheim called a "crack road trip" back in 2018.
The father-of-five had checked into Tinseltown's infamous Chateau Marmont, noting the hotel is "100% like right out of a movie."

Hunter Biden once lived at the Chateau Marmont for almost two months.
"That's the spot... and I lived in one of the bungalows for about close to two months," Hunter added.
Chateau Marmont is located on West Hollywood's iconic Sunset Boulevard, and is known to have quite the sketchy history. The notorious A-list hotspot was the site of comedian John Belushi’s 1982 death from an accidental drug overdose.
Manheim then mentioned the late Saturday Night Live alum's passing, to which Hunter replied: "Exactly. Yeah, which was always in the forefront of my mind. I mean, I think I went [to the hotel] more than anything because I was like, 'hey, might as well go out with a bang.'"
