I woke up this morning and looked next to me – there it was, lying next to me. I must have taken it out in the middle of the night.
In this episode of 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', comedian David Boyle dives into his first night using a new sleeping device. Boyle's hilarious recounting of waking up to find the device next to him rather than in his mouth sets the tone for an amusing yet insightful exploration of his sleep struggles.
Boyle explains how the apparatus is supposed to work by keeping his chin forward to encourage nose breathing, but it seems he has a knack for removing it in his sleep. His candid reflections on the challenges of adjusting to this device are both relatable and funny, especially when he talks about his teeth feeling like they’ve moved overnight.
Boyle’s musings take a philosophical turn as he contemplates the importance of sleep and exercise, inspired by advice from a cancer doctor on Instagram. He humorously considers extreme solutions like sleeping in a cave or becoming an enlightened being in Tibet. The episode also touches on his busy life, juggling gym sessions, dental appointments, and preparing for a comedy gig.
Boyle's raw and honest narrative, sprinkled with light-hearted humour, makes this episode a must-listen for anyone dealing with sleep issues or looking for a good laugh. Tune in to hear how Boyle plans to tackle another night with his stubborn sleeping device and how he juggles life’s demands with his sobriety journey.
