Browsing: sober podcast

Every October, half the internet learns what it’s like to hold a club soda at a party. Contributor Kim Parsley and Senior Contributor Justin Lamb have been doing this for years, and they review every NA drink on this site. Sober October as a gateway drug, the breweries that didn’t make it, and what to pour this fall.

In the fourth grade, Paulina Pinsky was cast as Miss Piggy on Ice. At eight, she was praying to Elvis before skating competitions. By her twenties, she was smoking weed every day and telling everyone it was medicine.
Now she’s almost five years sober, writes the Substack newsletters Newly Sober and Process Over Product, and she’s our newest Sober Curator contributor, bringing something we haven’t covered enough: marijuana addiction. Alysse and Tamar talk with her about Muppets, Graceland, and the rhetoric that kept her high.

Alysse Bryson reviews Sunsets Are The New Happy Hour, Kristin Horstman’s weekly podcast on gray-area drinking and nervous-system regulation. A friend’s show, a fair read, and a recommendation for anyone curious, new, or bored at year twelve.

There are so many solid, binge-worthy recovery-focused podcasts out there. But with new episodes coming out weekly, it’s impossible to keep up.  The Sober Curator is here to help. Recovery Podcastland lets you in on our favorites. In this post, Sober Curator Ashley Sunderland brings you her curated list of 37 podcasts that are worthy of your time.

Dave and Chris, the Founders and Hosts of the Dopey Podcast, had collectively been through dozens of rehabs, spent years in jail, and overdosed 500 million times. The fact is they loved to laugh about it. That is until Chris tragically overdosed and died during the summer of 2018.

TikTok and Recovery Videos are a trend that is here to stay. People have been sharing their stories of recovery, celebrating milestones, and even cheering on others on the path to recovery. Adding hashtags like #sober, #mentalhealthawareness, #soberlife, and #wesobernow, these users have taken to the airwaves of TikTok en mass, and in the process are destigmatizing sobriety.
