Vic and Hamish are back with another hilarious and thought-provoking episode of Sober Awkward. This time, they tackle the tricky subject of alcohol traditions and whether it's okay to break them.

From international drinking customs to the classic Aussie BBQ, Vic and Hamish cover it all with their usual blend of humour and honesty.
