Vic & Hamish are so relatable, hilarious, and inspiring! I can’t count how many times I’ve laughed out loud while listening to this stellar podcast. Their open and vulnerable conversations keep me coming back for more. Their approach makes me feel like I’m right there with them, engaged in a...Read full review »

Excellent podcast and even better English accents. Thank you for your support and keeping the humour without the booze. 6months of booze again. Diagnosed with ADHD and approaching 40 made my drinking get out of control. And working in an Irish Pub didn’t help. But even with all that, I’m sober 6...Read full review »

Love this podcast… the story of my life LOL… thanks for the laughs, the insight and for keeping it real 🙌

This podcast is life changing and very funny. Hands down, Sober Awkward changes thinking around alcohol, sheds light on grey area drinking and challenges the status quo that alcohol is required to have a good time. One penis joke at a time, Vic & Hamish prove this is not the case. For anyone...Read full review »

I love YOUR podcast, by the way. Has helped me get to nearly 11 months. Yay!! However, that ADHD podcast you advertise… tried to listen to it but the host gibbered on for 8 minutes at the start of the episode that I listened to… and I got RSI trying to fast forward through it. Probably a sign...Read full review »

This has been my favourite sobriety podcast for a long time! I am 2 1/2 years into my sobriety and haven’t “needed” the same amount of quit lit and sobriety content but I’ll keep listening to this as long as there are new episodes. It makes me laugh and cry and I relate to every episode in some...Read full review »

“what’s her names” book reviewed on ABC RN plugged the podcast, here I am loving the Hamish accent. I had a 1980s LDLA (Syd-LDN) with a Yorkshireman - I remember Huddersfield / Middlesbrough where all the dams look like in the movie “Dam Busters”. My alcohol story was bing when young but rare...Read full review »

I bloody LOVE this podcast so thank you. I’m 2 weeks sober & I feel so determined this time …there have been other times 🙄 I have completely immersed myself in books, podcasts & sober social media.

Vic and Haimish are so funny, unpretentious, and informative! A sobriety podcast that leads with humor is such a welcome change.
nerdtak via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/30/24
I have binged the first 3 seasons of this show (in less than a month) and just heard the “change” episode. I feel compelled to say how much I have learned from Lucy sharing her most honest, raw and vulnerable “journey”. Such early days for her sobriety life and she has given hope to me and many...Read full review »

I’ve gone back to the beginning and just want to thank you for absolutely being my sober crutch. I don’t think I could have done it without you in my ears.
lemarseny via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 01/26/24
So glad this exists, as an American this a refreshing break from a lot of the heavy, humorless discourse around sobriety we have here. Thank you!!!!
Eilah Wood via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/14/24
I discovered Sober Awkward when perusing the list of Aus Podcast Awards and starting binging episodes this week as I’m sober curious. I’m yet to make the transition to sober life but hope to soon and listening back through the episodes is making me more excited to start. Having not given up the...Read full review »

Hi I’m Gabi via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/02/24
The perfect accompaniment to giving up booze. I’m now 8 months sober and this podcast has been a constant friend. I binged it through the early wobbly days. Now I listen every week for the laughs and a reminder that giving up alcohol isn’t a hardship. It’s the start of something brilliant and...Read full review »

Love this podcast so much. I have been listening to it for about a year on and off. Every episode resonates deeply and makes me smile and cry throughout. I am not sober but idk if it’s my goal. Listening has changed my perspective on so many things and helped me analyze my self worth and life....Read full review »

I found this podcast after another day of waking up with alcohol anxiety and thinking enough is enough (again). Your relatability, humour and honesty has got me through the first few days and I have a doctors appointment tomorrow. I feel stronger and less alone with your podcast by my side, Thank...Read full review »

I was looking for information to support my husband and got hooked by the un-preachy, self-deprecating and hilarious banter between Vic and Hamish that also happened to give me the info I was after. What started off as a quest to help another ultimately helped myself and changed my life forever....Read full review »

Big congrats on your podcast win!!! Well deserved after all your work. I am now into my 2nd year of sobriety and really starting to see the benefits….sleeping better, better gut health, thinking clearer etc etc. I started drinking at 40 after a health scare caused massive anxiety. I gave up...Read full review »

This conversation has helped me to relook at my relationship with alcohol and how is tends to make me feel worse instead of better. These two are hilarious, non judgmental, informative and inspiring. I tried other podcasts but this was the one that really hit home. Keep it up!
roaryyy doryyyyy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/18/23
Started listening to this pod about a year ago and look forward to each new episode. Vic, Lucy, and Hamish are open, honest, and quite hilarious. They research and present various topics and have such a positive approach. Rolls off like a chat between friends and is sincere and without judgement....Read full review »

I just adore this podcast so much. There isn’t any negativity pointed towards us drinkers, but plenty pointed at the poison called alcohol. The fact that they don’t try to patronize us as listeners certainly means a lot. Plus, their banter never fails to make me laugh at times, as I’ve worried...Read full review »

I don’t know what I’d do without this podcast.

Eleven months now and from day one this podcast helped me to laugh and learn to love my new life.

Absolutely loving this podcast. I’m a 36 year old Brit living in Aus. I started drinking properly at 14 and been a high functioning drinker ever since. I’m so ready for this change so I’m grateful for this podcast and all the lol moments ❤️ thanks ladies ✨

Both are funny and huge part of my sobriety! Vic’s laugh is so contagious!!
Kaebo260 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/28/23
I listen to a few different sobriety podcasts and they tend to strike different tones. I like Sober Awkward for it’s friendly, easy-going vibe. But it’s not frivolous, it does address important topics, so if you want something not too intense but still helpful and substantive, this is a great...Read full review »

You both deserve a medal for this show. Your humility and frankness on a troubling aspect of Aus is refreshing. Keep up the good work!

Thank you for everything your doing, I’m new to the sober life and your podcast has been a big part of my supports. I appreciate everything you’re doing!
Nobridges1234 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 07/19/23
This is the best podcast by far on sobriety in my opinion. I listen to over 15 podcasts, some serious, some informative, some about their journeys, some are messy, not professional, off at a tangent… Sober Awkward is Amazing! So so funny, with lots of relevant topics. So honest & raw. By far...Read full review »

You are my morning walking partners. When you make me laugh and double over, somehow people clear the path as if I’m drunk! Lo and behold, I’m sober awkward too.

This podcast has completely blown me away by how fantastic it is!!!! It’s so humorous and real at the same time. It’s like a Masters in getting sober and staying sober. This is fun to listen to and brightens up the day too!!!

I LOVE listening to you guys on my commute to work and sometimes even when I am doing housework. I smile and giggle all the way and you make sobriety so easy! Thank you❤️
Chanedej via Apple Podcasts · South Africa · 06/13/23
One of my favorites if not my top sobriety podcast out there. Vic and Hamish have really great chemistry together, and the vulnerability that the share in their stories is so heart warming and totally necessary in this field. Doesn’t help that I find British accents simply adorable ☺️ Well done...Read full review »

New to the scene but this podcast really put me in full on moments of ACCEPTANCE!!!! I have a problem with alcohol and apparently so do many many other “regular” people! That is what I personally needed for growth within my sobriety adventure. I have laughed, I have cried, I have become angry at...Read full review »

Amazingly open and honest take on the risks of partying and party drugs. This is information everyone who ‘dabbles’ or partakes in these substances should listen to.
Mll 19xx via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/19/23
I recommend going to the first episodes if you have just given up alcohol or trying to. I love the first couple of seasons. The last few episodes have such little content about alcohol I will probably stop listening. I love Victoria and Hamish, but I don’t find 30mins on ‘free things’ helps my...Read full review »

Vic and Hamish are like long lost friends. Giving great advice and helping you down the winding sober path. Well worth a listen! I’ve not missed an episode yet!

Mr
If you’re thinking of giving your relationship with alcohol a reality check this is a great listen. And it’s funny, insightful, happy, sad, everything. Helped me on my journey of now over six months sober and counting

Highly recommend this podcast! I really look forward to listening to new episodes each week.
Aaa miner via Apple Podcasts · Ireland · 04/28/23
Binge listened to Sober Awkward when first starting my sobriety. It was so relatable, describing the awkwardness of being the only sober one in a world drenched in alcohol. I really couldn’t imagine giving up drinking FOREVER, but Vic & Lucy, and now Hamisch, use/used real life situations and...Read full review »
