Alcoholism in and of itself is insane. And a quarter of those binge drinkers do it weekly. They're trying to get away from that and talking about a world showcase of drinking, which is still kind of bizarre.
What happens when the happiest place on earth becomes a minefield for those in recovery? In this episode of the 'Addict II Athlete Podcast', Coach Blu takes us on a personal journey through his recent trip to Walt Disney World following a mental health and addiction conference in Orlando, Florida. But it wasn’t all magic and fairy tales. As he walked through Epcot, he was struck by the sheer amount of alcohol now available in the park.
It’s a stark contrast to Walt Disney’s original vision, where alcohol had no place in the kingdom of dreams. Coach Blu delves into how this shift could be a potential trigger for those battling addiction. From the Wine and Dine Half Marathon Weekend to the world showcase of drinking, he paints a vivid picture of how pervasive alcohol has become in what was once an alcohol-free environment.
He also touches on broader topics like alcoholism, binge drinking, and even the parental rights and education bill. This episode isn't just a critique; it’s a call to be mindful and informed, especially if you’re planning a family trip to such destinations. Tune in for an eye-opening discussion that balances personal anecdotes with broader societal observations.
