Guinness, Geese & Guilt: Friendship and Sobriety in a Pandemic
I always buy- it's my go to- presents for people. Because of that, it must be a tough time I subconsciously wrap boozing up with Christmas so much.
Picture this: two friends, Geoff and Matt, sitting at opposite ends of a park bench during the tail end of Lockdown Part 2. That's where this episode of 'Wet and Dry' kicks off. It’s a bit different from their usual setup, but it’s packed with the same candid conversations and genuine laughs.
Geoff and Matt dive into the complexities of sobriety, male drinking culture, and navigating mid-life crises, all while sipping on their drinks of choice – some of which are non-alcoholic. They even tackle the difference between 0.0% and 0.5% alcohol content – a debate for the ages! The episode also features a double-header in their ongoing World Cup of AF (Alcohol-Free) competition. They’ll hold a few matches between episodes and announce results next time, so stay tuned for that excitement.
Geoff shares a small confession that adds a personal touch to their discussion. As they chat about their holiday traditions and how alcohol has influenced them, you’ll find yourself reflecting on your own habits and relationships. Whether you’re sober curious, in recovery, or just looking for an engaging listen, this episode offers an honest look at the ups and downs of living alcohol-free.
Grab your favorite non-alcoholic beverage and join Geoff and Matt for a conversation that’s as heartwarming as it is thought-provoking.
