Lee Mack: Because Being Vegan Wasn't Sanctimonious Enough!

The secret is finally out of the bag!

Lee Mack kindly agreed to this interview back in June and we have been practically bursting with excitement to tell you all!

That excitement did slightly spill over and we got the name of both his podcast and TV show wrong in the recording of this podcast! Awkward by name, awkward by nature...

For those of you living in the UK, you will already be familiar with Lee's work as he has been gracing your TV screens and theatres with his comedy since the mid 90s.

For those of you who unfamiliar with his work, as well as being sober, Lee is simply one of the most celebrated and recognisable comics in the UK.

From writing and starring in Not Going Out - the longest-running sitcom on air in the UK, to being a team captain on Would I Lie to You? since 2007.

As if his writing, comedy and acting weren't enough - Lee also co-hosts the wonderful and hilarious I Can't Believe It's Not Buddha podcast.

Perhaps most importantly, for the sake of our podcast, Lee's frankness and simplicity in talking about his sobriety was one of the first things that got through to Hame when he was drinking.

We have no doubt that it will have the same impact on some of you. Whether you are still drinking and thinking of giving sobriety a try or are sober and looking for inspiration to carry on!

We hope you enjoy this one and much as we both did!
