How many drinks does it take before you swear you’re fine, even when your body is clearly not? We put that question on a timer and a breathalyzer, turning a Friday night live hang into a public service experiment with real numbers, real impairment, and a hard line about never driving after drinking.
Ben runs “Drunk Show Part Deux” the only way that makes sense: shots on a strict 10 minute schedule, frequent BAC checks, and constant reminders that confidence is not competence. You’ll hear the breathalyzer readings climb from 0.00 into the danger zone, including crossing the 0.08 legal limit and pushing beyond 0.10, while the conversation stays focused on responsible drinking, DUI risk, and the simple choices that save lives.
Along the way, friend and guest Larry Reedy drops in to talk podcasts, whiskey, and the kind of community projects that keep you out of trouble. Back in studio, we get practical about drunk driving prevention: designated drivers, Uber and Lyft, why BAC can keep rising after you stop, and how tools like ignition interlock devices fit into enforcement.
Then we take it outside for a field sobriety test, including eye tracking and balance tests, and the results are exactly why “just a couple” can turn into a terrible decision. If you care about safe nights out, hit play, share this with a friend who “drives better buzzed,” and leave a review letting us know your personal rule for getting home safely.
