In this episode, Vic and Hamish take a hilariously honest look at whether drinking stunts your emotional growth—and what happens when you finally put down the glass.Vic reveals how she only really started maturing when she quit alcohol at 40. Gone are the days of pretending to be an adult while actually behaving like a teenager in a pub. Now, her idea of a wild night involves a cup of tea, a cosy blanket, and her latest passion project: an un-gratitude diary. Yep, you heard that right—while everyone else is jotting down affirmations, Vic is writing complaint letters to the council. It’s the ultimate sober hobby!On the flip side, Hamish admits he’s still not quite ready to hang up his immature hat. And maybe that’s okay. After all, not every form of maturity involves buying beige cardigans and signing up for a neighbourhood watch committee. But when it comes to emotional maturity, sobriety has definitely helped him step up his game—because, let’s face it, crying into a kebab at 3 a.m. was not a good look.Tune in to find out why growing up isn’t just about acting your age, why a bit of immaturity can be good for the soul, and why emotional maturity is the real glow-up of sobriety. Plus, get some top tips on how to turn your complaints into a constructive (and oddly satisfying) sober pastime!SHOW NOTESVic's book is out!
