We’d love to hear from you. Drop us a text. So you've taken the leap, you've made some good choices and found some clarity and you're feeling great but how can we 'bottle that feeling'? I discuss a few tips for this as well as The Sinclair Method, a medical approach to moderating. Some Atomic Habits references and my next fundraising challenge round off this one. Enjoy!

CW #9 - CHAT: Booze culture among the younger generation through the eyes of Matthew Ramos
We’d love to hear from you. Drop us a text. Great to get a guest back on the show, and even better that it's Matt Ramos. 12 years my junior, Matt was able to give some insight in answering the question, "Are people in their 20s more sensible when it comes to booze?"With a alcohol related film recommendation and a theory about what makes every situation better to boot, this was a glorious return to interviewing after multiple solo pods 😁

CW #5 - Movember Special 2025
We’d love to hear from you. Drop us a text. It's Movember. The 'hairy season'. So it's a bit of a switch up as I talk all things men's health. A lot of links back to alcohol so rest assured the podcast's raison d'etre is maintained. It might sound a little bit like an infomercial, but there are some staggering statistics as well as practical tips galore. I also discuss my Movember challenge, which is mildly ridiculous 😬 #movember #menshealth #mensmentalhealthSupport my fundraiser: https://movember.com/m/lukecunliffe?mc=60

CW #4 - How an alcohol-free night can look positively different?
We’d love to hear from you. Drop us a text. Ever thought about doing something you usually do with alcohol without alcohol? Perhaps a bit of FOMO has meant you've never quite committed to it. In this episode, I tell you about a really positive case study that is well worth a listen. I also discuss the stigma attached to talking about alcohol and how it gets put in a separate bucket to some other everyday temptations that we struggle to say no to. Listen to find out what they are.

Black Pudding lobbing is no joke. It's been around since the War of the Roses. This yearly tradition continues on in Ramsbottom, where black puddings are lobbed at Yorkshire puddings on posts high above competitors. Why do they do this? Well, in previous iterations, it was a continuation of an ongoing battle, but today it's to raise money for local families in need of a little assistance.We talk with Jimmy Cunliffe, the current organizer of the event and Gillian, the social media person with the competition.
