Beyond the Surface: Scuba Danny's Dive into Dry January, and Rethinking Your Own Relationship With Alcohol
In our first episode of 2024 Mike sits down with his old pal Scuba Danny. Danny, currently navigating the waters of Dry January, shares his candid experiences and reflections on this temporary voyage of abstinence, despite having no plans to give up drinking long-term.
In this far-ranging conversation we delve into the complexities of society's relationship with alcohol, the varied personal connections we have with it, and the often undiscussed spectrum of alcohol use. Scuba Danny opens up about the challenges and unexpected benefits he's encountered during his Dry January commitment, offering a fresh perspective on what it means to re-evaluate one’s relationship with alcohol.
Through our conversation, we explore the broader implications of taking a break like this, the societal norms surrounding drinking, and the personal introspection it can ignite. Whether you're in recovery, contemplating your own relationship with alcohol, or just curious about the diverse experiences of others, this episode offers a thoughtful discussion about the world of alcohol use and the personal journeys it shapes.

If you’re in trouble with substance abuse and need help, reach out. There are thousands of people who have put problems with addiction in their rear-view mirrors and you can be one of them. While we neither endorse nor condemn any particular program, the sheer number of available AA and NA meetings suggest that reaching out to those organizations would be a good first step, (but maybe not the last step), on your road to recovery.
