  • Fast Fizz: Drunk Vocabulary

    Slaughtered, wasted, mortal, ratted, trollied, smashed, plastered, wrecked, hammered and sh*tfaced... just a few of the many powerful words to describe being drunk. Notice anything in common? Not exactly sweetness and light, are they! The violent vocabulary is a clear reflection of the harmful effects of alcohol... yet still we drink. Your hosts Ruth, Clare & Jane discuss this phenomenon... what words can you add?
