David Boyle's Return to Comedy and Fucked Up Fridays

It's fucked if you've got to go at like .30pm, 6pm to get there and by the time I get to the gigs when they start early, I'm like Fucking Carsick and it takes me like minutes to get my shit back together.
David Boyle is back on stage, and he's doing it sober. In this episode of 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', Boyle dives into the challenges of performing stand-up without the crutch of alcohol. Imagine the nerves and jitters of a comedian returning to the spotlight, compounded by the lingering effects of years of heavy drinking. Boyle doesn't shy away from sharing his struggles with carsickness and lack of focus, painting a raw and honest picture of his journey.
But it's not all doom and gloom. Boyle finds comfort in self-improvement, turning to books like 'Atomic Habits' and 'Atlas Shrugged' to keep him grounded. And then there's 'Fucked Up Fridays', a segment where listeners send in their wildest stories. This week, we hear about Kieran from Newcastle getting punched in the face during a play fight gone wrong. It's a rollercoaster of emotions, blending humor with heartfelt reflections.
Whether you're on your own sobriety journey or just in need of a good laugh, this episode is a must-listen.
