I have absolutely LOVED this chat and resonated with so much of what Emily shared, especially the hungover schoolruns😔. 3 years sober now through AA but am very interested in the sober/AF online communities which I didn't know existed until recently. How can I join the group Dave?
Excellent stuff Dave and Emily. First discovered Dave on Will & Ralf Podcast. Almost everything you said resonated - drinking alone, hiding bottles, even pissed off when brewers lowered drink alcohol percentages 😄 Am heading back to Australia in March for what will be last hurrah with family and friends and then I reckon I'm done. People like yourself offer unbelievable hope of how good sobriety must be.
My mum drunk herself to death 1st July 2023…if I didn’t stop I would go the same way as a father of 2 I had to stop drinking,this podcast really helped
Love this Podcast and Sober Dave you rule! I’m from Portsmouth too like Lorri, I’m a week in being sober after 25 years drinking most days…these Podcasts really help
I watched dans podcast with you when it first came out and have re watched it today, you’ve got some great analogy’s and I’ll be sure to pick the book up and give it a read
This was a heartbreaking, but incredible episode: I listened to it twice. As alcoholism killed my mother and I am a recovering alcoholic myself, I think it’s so important that stories like this are shared. Well done Amber for being so brave and Dave for an excellent interview.
Such a positive message, love all the podcasts (currently working my way through from the beginning but decided to review this one first) it's really cheered me up today, strung together a good few months on the wagon since Oct 2021 but my heart wasn't really in it until May last year, had a few "one night stands" with booze since then & I'm now just over 10 weeks fully committed. I'm continually being asked what's changed for me "this time".... all that's changed is my mindset & these podcasts are really helpful - appreciate you all, cheers a lot Dave & Andy xx
