  • Politics

    Why bring up your political views and bash the President? Stop listening to CNN and open your eyes, to what Trump is doing to keep America safe. Do you want to open up the floodgates to all the illegals and overwhelm the country again…you are so pathetic

    Simply terrible podcast. Hosts have nothing interesting to say, SWT (who is so woke she can’t see straight) demeans and talks down to LC. Don’t waste your time!

  • It’s an occasional hate listen.

    These are 2 of the dumbest people I’ve ever heard on any sort of media platform. It’s a bad look for women.

Drunk-ish: From the I've Had It Podcast - Josh Welch
Q: From what I know about you, it seems like getting sober was an especially hard struggle for you. Is that true?
Yes. I faced a long road with multiple relapses, but the people and relationships that matter most—my wife and my kids—helped me stay committed to recovery, and over time I learned to forgive myself and choose a different path.
Introducing Drunk-ish: From Yoga Poses Straight to Jail
Q: What prompted Kristi to start Mocktail Mommy and build a sobriety-focused community?
She started Mocktail Mommy after rehab as a way to create accountability, share her story publicly, and build a community where sobriety could be seen as a social and approachable lifestyle rather than a stigma.
Introducing: Drunk-ish: I Thought I Needed Better Drinking Rules
Q: Was there a moment when you decided to commit to sobriety for good?
Yes, after multiple crises and a period of relapse, Kristi describes choosing to stay sober for a period with support from therapy, family, and the AA community, followed by a realizing that true change required ongoing effort beyond a single program.
Introducing: Drunk-ish: I Thought I Needed Better Drinking Rules
Q: What happened during rehab that helped you begin to change?
She recalls meeting a woman in rehab who showed authenticity and calm strength, later taking her to AA meetings, which provided the first real sense of community and a path toward sobriety.
Introducing: Drunk-ish: I Thought I Needed Better Drinking Rules
Q: When did you start to feel like alcohol was a problem for you?
Kristi describes a progression from experimentation in high school and college to a clear realization in adulthood that drinking was causing harm, including dangerous behavior and strained family dynamics, which eventually led to seeking help and entering rehab.
