David Boyle is back with his unique blend of humour and sobriety in this episode of 'I'm Quitting Alcohol'. Boyle, a comedian transitioning from an alcohol-fuelled past to a sober present, shares his take on the latest antics of Donald Trump. Boyle imagines a scenario where Trump attempts to make Canada the 51st state, complete with wild tariffs and a possible invasion.
His vivid and hilarious descriptions of this hypothetical situation will leave you chuckling and shaking your head at the absurdity of it all. Boyle also reflects on his time in Perth, Australia, where he discovers the city's hidden beauty beyond its central business district. He takes a scenic tour with a listener, Brad, and finds himself pleasantly surprised by the charm of the Swan River, Cottesloe Beach, and the suburbs.
Despite his initial misgivings about Perth, Boyle considers it a potential place to live, albeit with some reservations about certain areas. The episode is peppered with Boyle's trademark irreverence as he discusses his comedy shows in Perth, the local drug scene, and the differences between audiences in Sydney and Perth. He shares how he's had to adjust his approach to be more likeable at the start of his shows, a strategy that seems to be paying off.
With just two more shows to go, Boyle is looking forward to finishing his stint in Perth on a high note. Tune in for a mix of comedy, candid reflections, and a glimpse into the mind of a comedian navigating life without alcohol.
