The Wine Study: A Sobering Reality Check

Episode Overview

  • The Spanish study is critiqued as a justification for drinking.
  • Lee compares it to absurd scenarios like smoking for meditation.

We're not running a health study. We're running a justification project.
Ever wondered how absurdity can be dressed up as science? In this episode of the 1000 Days Sober Podcast, Lee Davy tackles the controversial Spanish study that’s raising eyebrows worldwide. With €2.4 million on the line, this study enlists 10,000 participants to drink wine daily, all in the name of health benefits. But Lee doesn't buy it. He argues that it's not a scientific endeavour but rather a 'justification project' for a substance that's linked to countless health issues.
Lee pulls no punches as he compares this study to absurd scenarios like using smoking for meditation or heroin for better sleep. He paints a vivid picture of how society cloaks alcohol with cultural and traditional respectability, turning a blind eye to its dangers. His message is clear: alcohol isn't a harmless indulgence; it's a deadly drug with a PR makeover. Throughout the episode, Lee's passion for living an alcohol-free life shines through.
He shares his personal journey of sobriety and his mission to help others see through the 'Liquid Lie'. His candid style, sprinkled with humour and a touch of righteous indignation, keeps you engaged while prompting you to question societal norms. By the end, you'll be pondering some big questions: What if we faced the truth about alcohol? What if industries built on these myths crumbled? This episode is a call to wake up, challenge absurdity, and embrace clarity.
It's not just about ditching alcohol; it's about living a life unburdened by societal lies. Ready to take a stand and see through the charade? Tune in for a thought-provoking journey.
