I'm just here to get fucked over, but that old backpacker scene that I used to do when I was younger and I used to love, I didn't actually love it. I fucking hated it. But who else are you going to get drunk with? You? Just get fucking drunk with the cunts in your hostel. Those Days are fucking long gone, but my wife's drinking.
Ever wondered how sobriety changes your travel experiences? In this episode of 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', comedian David Boyle shares his escapades of getting scammed by taxi drivers while navigating the bustling streets of Malaysia. With his signature humor, Boyle recounts the challenges of staying sober amidst the nostalgia of backpacker culture he once adored but now finds exhausting. Picture yourself in a bar, surrounded by people urging you to drink, and you'll get a taste of Boyle's daily battles.
He opens up about the self-control needed to resist these temptations, especially when the pressure comes from loved ones like his wife. But it's not all serious talk; Boyle sprinkles in light-hearted musings on pool etiquette, Marlboro lights, and the odd experience of spotting someone in the same shirt as you. His candid storytelling offers a blend of laughs and insights, making it relatable for anyone who's ever faced similar struggles.
Whether you're on your own sobriety journey or just looking for a good laugh, this episode promises both.
