Description

WARNING: this week's episode is about alcoholism, and true to our nature, we talk about it in both serious and silly terms. We talk about it medically, and also personally, with our own experiences and memories. If hearing this type of shit would bum you out or make you upset, we get it! Skip this one! We'll see you next week, talking about something else! Love you so much!

For everyone else, we're talking THE LOST WEEKEND (1945) with our substance abuse expert and friend of the show, Beth Z! Welcome back, friendo!
