5 Years 18 days - Sleep Patterns

David Boyle is back with another episode of 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', and this time he's tackling the challenge of sleep patterns. If you've ever struggled with getting a good night's rest, you'll relate to Boyle's candid recount of his current sleep woes. Working long hours and trying to balance family life has thrown his sleep schedule into chaos, leaving him running on an average of five and a half hours of sleep per night.

Despite his best efforts, including putting his phone down early, Twitter's algorithm keeps him hooked past midnight. Boyle's morning routine involves a series of stretches and kettlebell swings to combat his stiff lower back, followed by a protein shake and a long drive to work. His reflections on the daily grind, the sacrifices he's making for Bitcoin, and his wife's pragmatic acceptance of their situation add a layer of humour and relatability to the episode.

Boyle's determination to avoid selling his Bitcoin, even at the cost of physical strain, showcases his commitment and stubbornness. He also shares his frustration with repetitive podcasts and his desire for engaging audiobooks during his commute. As he navigates the challenges of a physically demanding job, Boyle finds camaraderie with his Filipino co-workers, who share his relentless work ethic.

This episode is a raw and honest look at the struggles of maintaining sobriety, balancing work and family, and the quest for better sleep. Tune in for a mix of humour, reality checks, and a glimpse into Boyle's unfiltered thoughts.
