Sober Awkward

Enthusiasm: How to Stay Pumped When Everyone Else is Pissed!


Listen Later

Is sobriety really just herbal tea, beige cardigans, scrabble and bouffant hair?


This week on Sober Awkward, Vic and Hamish tackle one of the trickiest parts of sober life… keeping your enthusiasm when everyone else is getting pissed. From rewiring your dopamine-starved brain to rediscovering what actually excites you (spoiler: it’s not Sambuca shots or Gary from accounts), they explore how to find genuine joy, fun, and buzz, minus the hangover and the shame-spiral.


Expect laughter, science, awkward confessions, and a few deeply questionable dance-floor memories as they flip the “sober = boring” myth on its head. Whether you’re still wobbling on the fence with one leg in the pub and one in a yoga class, or you’re fully converted to the chamomile-tea-and-early-bedtime lifestyle, this episode will spark your sober mojo back to life.


Sobriety isn’t beige!!! it’s sequins, silliness, and sweet, hangover-free freedom.

Oh, and bring tissues. Vic gets emotional, Hamish overshares, and there’s some very naughty chat that probably should’ve been edited out. Do not play this one with the kids in the car.
