The next morning she drove to pick up her boyfriend. I didn't even, I couldn't even take that off.
Picture this: a comedian on a quest to ditch alcohol, grappling with his past while planning a trip to Tasmania. In this episode of 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', David Boyle takes listeners through his experiences with his beloved auntie, who could outdrink anyone he knows. Boyle's struggle with sobriety becomes even more poignant as he contemplates visiting Tasmania without the familiar comfort of a drink in hand.
Instead, he toys with the idea of an opium bender or perhaps a wholesome hike. His reflections on how his comedy might evolve without the influence of alcohol are both humorous and insightful. The bond he shares with his auntie, often cemented over late-night champagne and beer, faces a new test as he navigates life without booze. Boyle's determination to stick to his decision, despite the devilish temptations, is both relatable and inspiring.
He admits he's not entirely ready for this new chapter, but he's willing to give it a go. If you're curious about creative ways to stay sober or need a laugh amidst your own journey, this episode is a must-listen.
