Is It Time To Quit Drinking? Plus, Olivia Munn And Thin-Skinned Celebrities

It turns out Grace isn't the only one who can't play sport to save her life and thanks to a few listener's hilarious childhood stories she's feeling better about *that* basketball incident. We have a few incredible true crime documentary recommendations and Izzy's obsessed with this crazy sex cult called NXIVM, which attracted millionaires and celebrities with the founders currently going through the court system. Speaking of celebs, Olivia Munn's Twitter essay and Lizzo's smackdown of an unfavourable review has the journalism world questioning - are celebrities getting a little thin-skinned? Plus, according to recent studies, young adults are drinking less than ever before and the 'sober curious' movement shows no signs of slowing down. It's a no brainer that alcohol is bad for our psychical and mental health, so should we all just stop drinking? (Spoiler: we were drinking rosé while debating this). Ps! We’ll post all our recommendations and behind the scenes on Instagram: @afterworkdrinkspodcast . Plus, you can join our closed Facebook group, After Work Drinks Podcast. Recommendations: Billie Eilish (lol) To watch: The Case Against Adnan Syed, The Jinx, The Bold Type To read: Celebrities couldn't take criticism this week https://www.vogue.com/article/olivia-munn-fug-girls-ariana-grande-justin-bieber-lizzo The Instagram aesthetic is over https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2019/04/influencers-are-abandoning-instagram-look/587803/ Listen to: Escaping NXIVM (season one of Uncover: The Village podcast)
