“You get sober and then life gets real weird, real fast.” — Alysse Bryson

If you’ve ever worried that the party ends when the drinking stops—buckle up. Because Episode 28 of The Killjoy After Party is here to blow that myth wide open.

Rude and Goody were joined by the one and only Alysse Bryson, a trailblazing force in the sobriety space and the powerhouse behind The Sober Curator, a lifestyle site that proves sober doesn’t mean boring—it means boldly, beautifully, and hilariously alive. In an episode full of laughs (our cheeks actually hurt), real talk, and musical mischief, we dove headfirst into what makes life after alcohol so wild—and so worth it.

🎤 From Bottom to Badass

Alysse’s story isn’t just about quitting drinking—it’s about what happens when you don’t quit on yourself. We talk about the messy middle: the weirdness that comes post-booze, when the fog lifts and life starts to get real. Real emotions. Real challenges. And real joy. From boardrooms to bottom-outs, Alysse’s path is deeply human, often hilarious, and refreshingly unfiltered.

📺 Sober Pop Culture, Tchotchkes & Transformation

These crazy threesome geeked out on the evolution of addiction in media—how sobriety is finally getting its glow-up, and how we still have miles to go. Alysse gives Rude and Goody a peek into her obsession with pop culture, storytelling, and tchotchkes (yes, those delightful little trinkets that somehow hold all the meaning in the world).

And if you’ve never heard someone describe sobriety as a treasure hunt for the soul, well, you’re in for a treat.

🎶 And Then… We Wrote Her a Theme Song

It wouldn’t be The Killjoy After Party without a musical twist. Inspired by her catchphrase-worthy charm, on the fly, the group penned “AB That’s Me”—a Nashville-flavored bop that captures Alysse’s vibe: big-hearted, full-throttle, and never basic.

Think glitter, guts, and a chorus that’ll stay stuck in your head all week.

🚫 Think Sobriety Is the End of Fun? Think Again.

We hear it all the time from our community: Life after booze is not just better—it’s bigger, bolder, and way more fun than you ever imagined. This episode is proof. Whether you’re sober curious, a seasoned recovery warrior, or just here for a good story, you’ll leave feeling inspired (and possibly shopping for rhinestone bomber jackets).
