Welcome to the second series of Am I Nuts. This is the fourth episode in a series of ten weekly podcasts from us at the Women’s Running podcast. I am your host Esther Newman, and she is your other host Holly Taylor.

 

Are we nuts?

In this series, we wanted to explore some of the things that we’ve talked about on our big podcast – that’s the Women’s Running podcast – that don’t necessarily have anything to do with running. Hol and I are natural born worriers, and we’ve realized that in almost every episode, we talk about at least one of those worries – and we also realized that with many of them, we’ve thought we were the only ones. We thought we were nuts. If you have something you think we should talk about, then please email us at [email protected]

 

Alcohol

In this fourth episode, we wonder if we’re nuts to worry about booze. Trigger warning here: we’re talking about alcohol and addiction. Do we drink too much? What does alcohol do to our bodies? How does that change as we age? What do we think about sobriety? In this episode we’re talking about our own relationships with booze and how that’s changed over the years – there is no advice or judgement. I’ve listed a few brilliant places to go online in the show notes for support and advice if you or a loved one is struggling with alcohol.
