[S04E03] Is there any truth to the long-standing stereotype that sailors drink more than the rest of the population? In this podcast, we talk about why Jamie gave up the booze, how this has affected our lives, and reveal the negative side to not drinking. Do you enjoy a tipple, and would you ever consider giving it up? What do you think, do sailors drink too much? In our video podcast this week, we talk about Jamie’s decision to give up alcohol during lockdown. He discusses why he did this and what it was like. (And Liz explains why she feels comfortable still drinking the occasional beer and a whisky nightcap.) Along with the positives, we reveal the negative side to no longer being a boozer. What about you, have you considered cutting down the grog, maybe even giving up altogether? Or are you like Liz, quite happy about your relationship with alcohol. If you’re thinking of quitting drinking alcohol, we cannot recommend the Try Dry app enough. It really helped Jamie in the early stages.
