Russell Hicks: 13 Years Sober and Still Making 'Em Laugh

People that know me today have a hard time believing that I ever drank, and I think that's a beautiful thing.
Ever wondered how a comedian can stay sober and still keep the crowd in stitches? In this episode of 'Sobriety Unplugged', Sharon, Freddie, and Ben sit down with Russell Hicks, a stand-up comedian who's been alcohol-free for 13 years. Russell shares his journey from the early days of his career to becoming a confident performer without a drink in hand.
He opens up about how his passion for comedy pushed him to quit drinking in his 20s, realizing he couldn't be at his best with alcohol holding him back. But it's not all serious talk—Russell's knack for humor shines through as he discusses the fun and laughter that come with sobriety. The conversation also touches on how to handle social situations where people question your choice not to drink, and the importance of building genuine confidence.
Whether you're curious about sobriety or looking for a good laugh, this episode offers both in spades. Tune in to hear Russell's inspiring story and maybe even pick up a few tips on how to navigate life without alcohol.
