Sober Awkward18 Des 2022

The Christmas Special

It's Christmas! Well, nearly!

Let's face it, Christmas is a tough time for sober people! Not

only the actual day itself, the entire frantic build up can make you want to

hide in a hole until February. There is a certain amount of pressure to join

in, follow the merry crowd. We There are Christmas parties, work functions, family

drinking traditions and long walks to pubs after too many roast potatoes.

Habits so ingrained that us sober people want to run for the hills... or worse,

cave in under the pressure.

But, we are pleased to announce that this year is going to be

different! There will be no hangovers or vomit in the stocking, just chocolate,

tea and the making of wonderful memories. Oh and guess what? You can turn

Christmas on its head... and piss off on holiday on your own! Who knew!

In this surprisingly devilish episode Vic and Hamish discuss

Christmas's gone and what's changed with sobriety. There is also special sober

elf visiting the booth. An awkward friend brings Christmas cheer and a $5

secret Santa. Yep, you've guessed it, Lucy is back in the studio to tell us all

about her sobriety, yuletide preparations and what makes a successful Christmas

Day without a Bucks Fizz or a second glass of Baileys.

So, put on your festive jumper and your reindeer antlers and

settle in for a mince pie and some sober giggles.
