- One of the best podcasters.
I have listened to dozens of alcohol podcasts shows and I think this is one of the very best. The episode with Aunee was so enlightening with some great ‘one-liners’ to take away. Thanks. Very much appreciated.

United Kingdoma year ago - Alcohol has no positive benefits
This Dr is obviously an alcoholic. He preaches nonsense about relating its use to eating unhealthy food lol .. what a quack

Canada3 years ago - Food for thought
So refreshing to find increasing challenge out there to the religious dogma of AA. Not criticising anyone who finds that the abstinence model works for them but the reality is that there are millions of drinkers out there who ought to cut down but will never give up; healthy, nuanced, grown-up discussion and reflection about mindful drinking and moderation is much needed and most welcome.
Apple Podcasts5Nicola CherryUnited Kingdom3 years ago - Worth your time over a glass or two (or otherwise)
Given the strength of our society’s relationship with alcohol it’s well worth pausing to think about the trade offs. This discussion was informative and accessible. The host is engaging and clearly an expert in the field.
Apple Podcasts5Stephen xyzUnited Kingdom5 years ago - A fascinating and interesting listen!
Excellent and essential listening for people working in the field and those pursuing ways to think about their drinking. Give it a listen. Non judgemental and open discussions about our relationship to alcohol
