I Don't Call Myself an Alcoholic with Kate Anthony
This week on Drunk-ish, I sit down with my friend Kate Anthony—author, divorce coach, and host of The Divorce Survival Guide Podcast. Kate opens up about how playdates with wine turned into nightly drinking, the shame spirals at 3am (“Holy fuck, I can’t believe I drove” ), and the moment she realized alcohol was the problem, not her. We talk parenting, hitting that “I’m done” wall, what finally helped her quit, and how sobriety gave her the love, career, and life she never thought possible. Funny, heartfelt, and completely relatable, this conversation is one you don’t want to miss.Find out all the info on Kate at her website KateAnthony.comHer book is The D Word: Making the Ultimate Decision About Your MarriageHer podcast is The Divorce Survival GuideWatch this episode on YouTube

Diary of an Alcoholic Housewife – Brenda Tells All
This week on Drunk-ish I sit down with Brenda Wilhelmson, author of Diary of an Alcoholic Housewife. Brenda opens up about juggling motherhood, her years of trying to “look perfect on the outside” while feeling wrecked on the inside, and the rocky starts that came before lasting sobriety. We talk about vodka martinis with dissertation-writing cousins, accidentally lighting her hair on fire at an office Christmas party, and the judgment moms face when they admit they’re struggling. Brenda shares how she finally found recovery, what helped her stick with it, and how her life has changed today.

The Diary That Sent Robin Reiser to Rehab (Part 2)
Imagine getting sober before you could drive. That’s my guest this week, Robin Reiser, who checked into rehab at sixteen and never looked back. Well… not willingly, anyway. Robin tells me about being busted by her parents after they found her diary (rookie mistake), what it felt like to think alcohol was her best friend, and the surprisingly relatable “not today” trick she still uses to quiet that little voice saying, “Maybe you could handle it now.” We swap stories, laugh about our old drunk logic, and get real about parenting sober.Robin's IG @RobinReiserMedium.com/@RobinReiserFollow Drunk-ish on YouTube Please like and follow on Apple!

From Pharm Parties to Fentanyl, What Parents Need to Know Now
Richard Taite is back for part two, and this time we go deep into what parents really need to know about kids and drugs today. Richard explains how fentanyl shows up in everything from fake Percocet to weed, and how to have the hard conversations with our kids. We also talk about parenting through addiction, whether sending a teen to rehab for weed is overkill, and why he believes early, honest talks can save lives. And because it’s Richard, we still manage to laugh while comparing rehab to choosing between the Four Seasons and Motel 6 .
Drunk-ish with Stefanie Wilder-Taylor is the podcast for anyone who’s ever sworn off alcohol… and then immediately wondered what the hell to do next. Hosted by author, humorist, and former enthusiastic drinker Stefanie Wilder-Taylor, Drunk-ish serves up brutally honest (and often hilarious) one-on-one conversations with people navigating the wild ride of sobriety. Some are famous, some are just your average legends, but all have stories about quitting drinking — the good, the bad, and the completely unhinged. No preachy vibes, no perfection required — just real talk about what it’s like to stop drinking without becoming a total bore.Video version available at www.youtube.com/@Drunk-ishpodcast
