I won't even go to island. Fuck, island England. What am I gonna do in England without drinking? What? I'm gonna go to a premier league game. Sober, fucking hell, Poland. What the fuck am I gonna do in Poland without drinking? How am I gonna be racist against the blacks in Poland? Sober, it just makes no fucking sense.
Ever thought about how tricky it might be to travel without a drink in hand? Comedian David Boyle brings his signature humor and honesty to this very topic in the 'I'm Quitting Alcohol' podcast. Reflecting on his recent trip to New Zealand, Boyle grapples with the idea of visiting places like Ireland, England, and Poland without indulging in their famous brews.
He hilariously questions the point of going to Ireland if he can't raise a pint and worries about how his sober presence might be seen by his Irish ancestors. Boyle dives into his family history, touching on the importance of honoring his roots while staying sober. His candid reflections on rewiring his reward system and finding joy in new ways—like celebrating milestones with fast food—are both funny and thought-provoking.
He shares the awkwardness of social situations without alcohol and the realization that some old pleasures just don't hit the same sober. With his unique blend of humor and raw honesty, Boyle sheds light on the ups and downs of sobriety. Whether you're on your own journey to quit drinking or just looking for a good laugh, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on traveling sober. Tune in to hear Boyle's take on navigating holidays without a drop of alcohol.
