Episode Overview
- Raising alcohol prices won't stop people from drinking.
- People will cut other essentials to afford alcohol.
- Alcohol consumption is an automatic response, not a financial decision.
- The true cost of alcohol includes health, energy, and peace of mind.
- Recognising the 'liquid lie' can help break free from alcohol's grip.
Nobody stops drinking alcohol because it’s too expensive. You just make it happen. Something else gets cut.
Lee Davy brings a fiery perspective on the futility of alcohol tariffs in this episode of the 1000 Days Sober Podcast. He argues that raising prices won't stop people from drinking; instead, they'll sacrifice other essentials. Drawing from personal experiences and broader societal observations, Lee illustrates how deeply ingrained the 'liquid lie' is. Alcohol isn't just a financial decision—it's an automatic response, a programmed necessity that people cling to despite its damaging effects.
Lee's candid reflections highlight the true cost of alcohol beyond money—impacting health, energy, and peace of mind. With a mix of humour and hard-hitting truths, he challenges listeners to rethink their relationship with alcohol. Why should you listen? Because it's time to see alcohol for what it truly is—a scam that takes more than it gives.
