If I'm going to go barefoot, I want my foot to be like a monkey's, a gorilla. I want to be hanging upside down by my toes.
In this episode of 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', comedian David Boyle shares his thoughts on a few recent purchases and gives an unfiltered review of Audible. First up, Boyle is thrilled with his new portable sauna, describing it as a 'steam heaven' despite some minor issues with drying it out. He reckons it’s going to be a game-changer for his relaxation routine. Next, he talks about his new barefoot shoes.
Although they might be a size too small, Boyle is already feeling the benefits compared to his work boots, which he compares to walking on high heels. He’s on a mission to find the perfect pair that’ll make his feet feel like a gorilla's, ready to pick up coins and smoke darts with his toes. Classic Boyle humour there! However, not everything is sunshine and rainbows. Boyle vents his frustration about Audible, feeling misled by their subscription model.
He expected an all-you-can-read buffet but got one measly credit a month instead. A message from a listener calling him out for his online behaviour adds a bit of drama to the mix, prompting Boyle to reconsider his internet habits and dive back into reading. He wraps up by mentioning the book he chose with his Audible credit, 'Conceived in Liberty' by Murray Rothbard, and hints at some upcoming history lessons for his audience.
With his signature mix of comedy and candidness, Boyle makes even the mundane details of daily life entertaining. Tune in for a laugh and maybe some inspiration to rethink your own purchases!
