We hope that you might feel better equipped to say no and to actually enjoy sport for what it's designed for: bonding with friends, getting fit and improving a particular skill, none of which- throwing up down the drain of a changing room shower- help with no.
Why does it seem like sports and alcohol go hand-in-hand? Vic and Hamish from 'Sober Awkward' are here to unravel this puzzling connection. Ever tried running a sack race after a few too many? Spoiler alert: it’s not pretty. In this episode, they roll back the years to see how this all started and what it means for our health and inclusivity. The hosts take a humorous yet insightful look at the dangers of mixing booze with athleticism.
They chat about everything from drinking rituals in sports teams to the omnipresent alcohol ads during games. They even shine a light on some sober sports legends who might have been sidelined if they’d given in to peer pressure. And, of course, Vic shares why her favorite sports aren’t in the Olympics—yet! With their usual blend of humor and honesty, Vic and Hamish offer advice on navigating sobriety in a world where drinking is often part of the game.
Whether you're an athlete or a fan, this episode will make you think twice about reaching for that pint while cheering on your team.
