Adam blows the whistle on Big Alcohol - Episode 3

10/26/24 • 33 min

After a career in advertising for big alcohol, our guest, Adam Murphy, blows the whistle on his former employers, comparing their methods for selling a known cancer causing agent to those of big tobacco. He describes how governments are powerless because they're also invested in the success of our alcohol companies.
They sell a product they know kills consumers and we, the consumers are auto enrolled into a drinking culture that often feels inescapable. We'll also hear how Adam escaped his work with big alcohol and found alcohol freedom for himself.

Jessie realises alcohol isn't the answer to Shame, ADHD, Autism or Trauma - Episode 5

In this episode, we meet with Jessie from Boston, a trained sommelier and hard liquor aficionado who describes her family as having many generations of alcohol dependence. We'll hear how she herself has had to come to terms with both ADHD and autism, as well as childhood trauma.
That trauma was triggered again during the COVID pandemic, where her alcohol use came to a head. Working 14 hour days in an essential service was tough enough, but being locked down also brought back the trauma of being trapped as a child. Jessie describes herself as a rebel down to the core of her being, and so the strict rules of AA weren't for her.
And in fact, it was a podcast that started her journey to finding alcohol freedom!
