I'm concerned that if I become like too pure in the soul that I'll stop being funny, like at some point along the spiritual path, if you follow it down long enough, at some point you stop being funny.
Ever thought about what happens when a comedian embarks on a journey to sobriety and wonders if he’s becoming too 'pure'? In this episode of 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', David Boyle hilariously grapples with the fear of losing his comedic edge as he continues his path to spiritual enlightenment. Boyle, with his signature wit, questions if he’ll have to choose between being enlightened and being funny. Will he need to give up profanity altogether?
Will his jokes still land if he becomes too wholesome? In true Boyle fashion, he imagines a comedic showdown with the Dalai Lama, making light of his own existential worries. Despite these concerns, Boyle’s dedication to his journey shines through. He reminds us that sobriety and self-improvement don’t have to be dull.
Through his raw and humorous storytelling, Boyle finds laughter in the ups and downs of life, proving that you can balance self-improvement with staying true to your comedic roots. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who enjoys a good laugh while navigating the challenges of sobriety.
