  • How to Live without Regrets
    Jan 5 2025

    No Regrets! They don't work!


    Regret is a feeling of sadness about something sad or wrong or about a mistake that you have made, and a wish that it could have been different and better:

    Some sober people might say that this is how they feel about their drinking career. They might look back at it as a mistake, a time where they were not living life to the fullest or wish it could have been better, less messy and more fulfilling.

    But how does feeling regret effect sobriety? Does if push us forward or hold us back?


    Today Vic and Hamish will go over some of their big regrets, they'll go deeper than the sloppy shags and pissed up injuries and dig into some of the more long term remorse that has resulted from years of heavy boozing. Can they both turn their regret into a super power and move on from it? Find out in this very silly episode in which Vic refers to her vagina as the Blackwell Tunnel. It's high-brow stuff!

  • Surviving Christmas Day!
    Dec 24 2024

    It's Christmas Eve!


    That special time of year in which we share gifts, gather together to eat a wonderful meal, share love and appreciation for one another........and get totally shit-faced!


    Yes it's time for the biggest bender of the year. The day where (apparently) it's ok to start drinking in the morning. So how an earth are you going to make it through?


    Today Vic and Hamish will share their ghosts of Christmas past and give you some brilliant tips on how to get through this day. They are approaching the festivities with a 'worst case scenario' perspective. That way, whatever you're faced with - you will be ready!


    If these two idiots can get through another Xmas day wearing an inflatable fancy dress outfits, with Uncle Steve trying to shove a glass of whisky in to their hand - then you can too!


    Merry Christmas Y'all!

  • Super Model Paul Sculfor: Why the First Step is the Hardest
    Dec 15 2024

    On the surface of it, Paul Sculfor was living the dream. He fell into modelling (his Mum signed him up to a competition without him knowing) and soon became Britain’s first supermodel when he was still in his early 20s. He travelled the world, earnt a huge income and was seemingly ‘living the dream’. But underneath it all, Paul’s partying was covering up some deep rooted trauma. As you will hear, Paul’s childhood was far from straightforward. Although he only discovered drinks and drugs relatively late, they would immediately fill the gaps in his personality that he felt he was lacking.

    Paul didn’t know he had a problem - until it was almost too late.

    After another drugs and booze fuelled night out, Paul had a panic attack whilst driving and would soon end up in rehab.Although it wasn’t a straightforward path from there - he has now been sober for over 20 years and has used his experience to try and help others. His wonderful Stride Foundation has been helped people get the professional help they need for a decade.

    Today, he splits his time working with the Foundation, modelling, podcasting, acting and TV presenting - not to mention being a husband and father of two.

    We cannot thank Paul enough for his honesty and wisdom during this conversation.
