David Boyle is back with another episode of 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', and this one is a wild ride. Boyle shares a hilarious yet thought-provoking story from his university days in Bathurst. One night, after a few drinks and some weed, he decided to set a neighbour's budgie free from its cage. What follows is a mix of comedy, reflection, and a dash of stoner philosophy.
Boyle expected the bird to fly out and embrace its newfound freedom, but instead, it stayed put, content in its cage. This incident sparked a deeper realisation about human nature and our own 'cages'. He muses on how people often prefer the safety of their comfort zones, even when given the chance to break free. Boyle's raw and humorous storytelling makes this episode both entertaining and insightful.
He wraps up by teasing an upcoming episode featuring 'The Law Dog', a lawyer with some juicy stories and conspiracies to share. If you're looking for a blend of comedy, introspection, and a touch of the absurd, this episode is a must-listen.
