Anything is telling people that you've quit something like i. I get vegans now. I get it because that is the most special part about quitting anything, the part where you get to tell someone that you're better than them. I am better than you.
Ever wondered what it’s like to tell people you’ve quit drinking and see their reactions? In this episode of 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', comedian David Boyle dives into the social rollercoaster that comes with sobriety. He shares his candid experiences of telling friends and strangers alike that he’s given up the booze, and the mixed bag of responses he gets. Some people cheer him on, while others seem baffled or even threatened by his choice.
Boyle’s knack for storytelling shines through as he humorously recounts these encounters, making you laugh and think at the same time. He doesn’t shy away from discussing the tough parts, either. The sense of isolation that can come with sobriety is real, especially in a culture where alcohol is practically a social currency. Boyle talks about how quitting drinking has forced him to find new ways to connect with people and fill his time.
But it’s not all doom and gloom. He also highlights the upsides, like feeling more in control of his life and forging deeper connections with those around him. This episode is a mix of funny anecdotes and thoughtful reflections, offering a fresh perspective on what it means to go sober in a world that loves its drinks. Whether you’re on your own sobriety journey or just curious about what it’s like, Boyle’s honest and humorous take will keep you hooked.
