Blackouts, arrests, destruction — 20 years of booze soaked mayhem processed one day at a time. No script. No filter. No drinks. Just the brutal honest reality of what giving up alcohol actually looks like from Day 1. Thousands of episodes. Seven years. Not one... more

    An occasional thoughtful episode here and there. Some good jokes. But there aren’t enough brain cells in the host to merit listening.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

7 Years 67 days Sober - Ask Boyle
Q: What are your thoughts on the situation that I am in?
Boyle suggests not going back to Melbourne as a solution, encourages proposing a neutral move (like Sydney) to test the relationship and personal fulfillment, and emphasizes the importance of not letting a familiar environment trap you, using his own moves between cities as a framework for making bold life changes.
7 Years 47 days Sober - Ask Boyle
Q: How do you feel about the upcoming KNDS IPO?
The host expresses Limited knowledge but frames the IPO within a broader critique of the weapons industry, weighing the potential profits against ethical concerns and geopolitical risk, and then pivots to a broader discussion about the role of defense contractors in modern society.
7 Years 39 days Sober - Ask Boyle
Q: If I continue to buy Bitcoin, how will I make sure it remains useful if banks block access to the system?
Bitcoin remains useful because it's designed to transfer value independently of banks; you should focus on proper storage (cold storage) and preserving purchasing power through disciplined accumulation rather than relying on fiat liquidity.
7 years 32 days Sober - Ask Boyle
Q: Advice for provoking Australians.
The host explains that while it's a playful, competitive dynamic, the key is to keep it light, sharp, and culturally aware without crossing into genuine hostility, using humor and crowd-reading to land a cheeky but respectful bit.
7 Years 25 days Sober - Ask Boyle
Q: Boyle your dog. My question is this man, why the fuck am I a supervisor?
He explains the challenge of transitioning from a high-responsibility supervisory role in mining to a more creative or varied career path, suggesting practical steps: plan a downgrade, save over six months, explore lighter, nearby work, and pursue a creative outlet like writing, a fiddle, or starting a band to create an exit path.
