David Boyle, the comedian behind the podcast 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', shares his final night in Barcelona in this episode. Boyle paints a vivid picture of the city's night vibe, where the day starts late and the nights are long. He reminisces about hanging out with his old friend Sammy, whose hair has seen as many changes as Boyle's life has. From wild hairstyles to unexpected bald spots, Sammy's transformation is a humorous highlight.
Boyle's night includes watching football, enjoying paella, and drinking Americanos while Sammy indulges in a few beers. The bustling streets of Barcelona, even on a Tuesday night, are alive with energy and quirky sights, like a man running with a queen-size mattress at midnight. Boyle also touches on the challenges of parenting in such an environment, from explaining inappropriate fridge magnets to navigating awkward questions about adult-themed t-shirts.
The episode wraps up with Boyle's visit to an Indian restaurant owned by a podcast listener, where he enjoys some of the best Indian food he's had outside of India. With his early morning flight looming, Boyle signs off, promising more stories in the future. This episode is a blend of humour, nostalgia, and the unique challenges of staying sober in a city that never sleeps.
