These cloud gods told me that it's not their job to change my life, it's mine. That's when I realized I needed to make a change.
What happens when a comedian decides to quit alcohol and confront his wild past? In this episode of 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', David Boyle recounts a particularly unforgettable night from his days of heavy drinking. Picture this: Boyle, freshly married (again), finds himself on a surreal trip after consuming five or six mushrooms. The story takes a wild turn as he forgets about the mushrooms and starts walking home, only to be offered a lift by fellow comedian Ben Jordan.
What follows is a vivid hallucination where Boyle sees gods in the clouds, offering him a divine yet humorous intervention. They tell him it's up to him to change his life, marking a turning point in his journey towards sobriety. With his signature wit, Boyle navigates through the absurdity and profound realizations of that night, blending humor with moments of deep reflection.
This episode is a rollercoaster of laughs and insights, perfect for anyone grappling with addiction or simply looking for an entertaining and thought-provoking listen.
