Oi! It's Your Round!

This week Vic and Hamish tackle that great cultural institution of the pub. From sticky carpets to soggy beer mats, dodgy jukeboxes to landlords with rosy cheeks and probably a drinking problem, pubs have been our second homes and our downfall.


But what happens when you go sober and suddenly the cosiness is replaced by awkwardness. When everyone is shouting rounds and you’re quietly clutching your sparkling water. When a QR code replaces the bartender and you’re asked for a tip before your sad chickpea salad even arrives.


We reminisce about our boozy pub days, debate whether the death of the shout is actually good news, and share our best tips for surviving pubs when you’re not drinking without feeling like a stingy boring weirdo.


If you’ve ever wondered how to navigate mates, rounds and the smell of stale beer without falling back into old habits this one’s for you. Grab your pint of milk and a bag of pickled onion Monster Munch and join us for some awkward honesty.


Whose round is it anyway???


Cheers!
