The Drunkalogues: Real Stories of Addiction and Laughter
Ever wondered what it’s like to turn the darkest moments into stories that make you laugh and cry? 'The Drunkalogues' is a podcast that does just that. Hosted by Nick Morton, a film producer, writer, and comedian who’s walked the path of recovery himself, this show brings you real-life tales of addiction and the journey to sobriety, sprinkled with humor and honesty.
Each episode kicks off with a guest sharing their personal story—how they fell into addiction, the chaos it brought, and how they clawed their way back to a sober life. These stories are raw, unfiltered, and often unexpectedly funny. Following the story, Nick sits down with the guest for a candid 30-minute chat. This isn’t your typical interview; it’s more like a heartfelt conversation between friends, where they dig deeper into the guest’s experiences and insights.
The charm of 'The Drunkalogues' lies in its ability to blend serious topics with light-hearted moments. Whether it's screenwriter Tom Vaughan discussing his Hollywood struggles or musician Paul Summers talking about finding faith through music, each story offers a unique perspective on the battle against addiction. Nick’s approach creates a safe space for guests to open up about their vulnerabilities, making each episode a mix of laughter, tears, and valuable lessons.
Perfect for anyone on their own journey to sobriety or those supporting loved ones through addiction, 'The Drunkalogues' is a reminder that even in the darkest times, there’s room for humor and hope.
