Millie Mackintosh: Navigating the Difficulties of a Second Year's Sobriety
41:11||Season 9, Ep. 6Millie Mack is Back!After sitting down with Hame for a chat on her 1 year soberversary, we thought we would do it all over again to celebrate her 2nd year of being alcohol-free.The second year is not always an easy one and Millie has felt the full spectrum of what that can feel like. In this conversation, Hame and Millie discuss the return of her anxiety, panic attacks and depression. The difficulty she felt in returning to the medication which she thought she had left behind forever and the struggles she has had with her relationship with food. Plus, Millie share the relative relief she felt at being diagnosed as ADHD.It's not all doom and gloom though! They had a laugh discussing Millie's tools for navigating a fear of flying without alcohol and share tips on how to make dance floors less frightening!We cannot thank Millie enough for her honesty and vulnerability in this conversation. As you will hear Millie is as strong as ever in her sobriety and has big plans for 2025!As ever, please pass this episode onto someone who needs to hear it most.Show NotesMillie's Insta: @milliemackintoshMillie's X: @milliemackintoshMillie's TikTok: @milliemackintoshofficialVic's book is out!

Drink Driving - Why One Standard Drink is One too Many
46:32||Season 9, Ep. 5Trigger Warning - We discuss drink driving throughout.Drink Driving - The government rules are that you can have one drink and drive, but what happens once that one is down the hatch - are you still able to make smart choices and not have another?Vic got behind the wheel when under the influence in her early 20's. She ended on in jail for the night. The experience had impact, but not enough to stop her drinking. Today she chats about what went down that night and the humiliation involved when doing something so stupid. They will also talk to Penny, a mum who crashed a car and faced the shame and embarrassment of being in the local paper and how the incident helped her turn her life around.We hope today you sober awkward people out there will learn a little bit about why people drink and drive, the impact it has on their lives and the lives of the people around them. we’ll talk about the amount you have to drink to make driving a danger and if there is anything that can be changed to stop people getting in the car when under the influence.

Enticed by the Craft Beer Industry
31:22||Season 9, Ep. 4This episode felt like a great betrayal to even contemplate writing!But when a listener reached out and asked to us to take closer look into the craft beer industry...we did just that!I was a HUGE fan of all things craft beer before I went sober. They felt rebellious, cool, they seemingly tasted better, were slightly more expensive, always stronger in their alcohol content and were always served by trendy looking blokes with beards, moustaches and tiny beanie hats!Was this just effective marketing or is there something a little darker about this booming industry?To be fair, as you will soon find out Vic and Hame will actually fall for any kind of product that is sold as being small-batch, artisan, home-made or organic!Anyone else struggle with this?!Enjoy the episode!Show NotesVic's book is out!
